Chic, elegant, soft buttery goodness
Like buttah! I bought it straight away. So many compliments. I’m tall so it hangs lovely on my frame. The “vegan” leather feels real and is incredibly soft. Adore this!

Beautiful skirt
It buttons up which can be a little tight but looks great. I felt comfortable in it and got compliments but I might try a next size up just for a little more space. And it has pockets!

Stunner. Wish it fit
I’m 5’9” and a size 8. The 8 was too tight. The 10L fit better but the bodice was too short on me so I had a wedgie all night. No one could tell and I got compliments all night. But I was uncomfortable. I wanted to love it but it didn’t fit well enough in the bodice. I’m 5’9” and had 2” heels on. Size up!

Elegant but bength too short
I’m 5’8” and the length was short. I got many compliments on the jumpsuit itself, it’s an elegant piece. Especially if you wear a camisole underneath (to hide the cleavage) like I did. The shoulder pads are fabulous. It’d be a perfect piece if the length of the pants was longer.

Gorgeous statement piece. Loved.
The dress is beautiful as it is. In the photo, however, you can see I tied it in a knot at the waist to give it some shzooz. Many compliments thru the evening.

I’m 5’8”, 140lbs, 36B/C and wore like 2” heels. It was so comfortable and I got so many compliments. I’d totally rent this again.

Unique formal gown. Loved it.
The bow is heavy so the dress sort of droops over. I used binder clips to clip the dress to my strapless bra; and fabric tape to hold the bow up. It’s such a pretty gown and I felt great in it. Many compliments.

Nice twist of a dress. Heads turn.
I’m 5’8, 140lbs, and the size 8 fit great. Felt great in it, and got compliments. I have a tall frame so it looks good on, especially the shoulders that pop. I was surprised that the material is thin. It looks more hearty but it’s thin fabric. I appreciate that the designer added two strings on the zipper to make it easy to zip and unzip.

Gorgeous, sophisticated dress
I’m 5’8” and wore a kitten heel. The back is much more interesting than the front but all together I loved wearing this to a black-tie event. The green is rich and sophisticated. No asparagus here, another reader’s bf said. I got compliments all evening. Felt like a million bucks and ended up buying it!

Statement pants but short
In the photo I’m wearing flats. I’m 5’8” and you can see they don’t touch the ground like the model photos. You really need to be either 5’6” to have that look or be able to pull them down off your waist. And they were so form fitting to my waist that I couldn’t move them down. I’m a solid size 8 (and 135lbs) so maybe size up one size for the length and to have more flexibility in the waist. I’d probably rent a 10 the next time. They’re fabulous!

Fabulous!!
This is *gorgeous*. It is so tailored. The sleeves were the perfect length, the shoulders were puckered and so chic. The fabric is hearty and fabulous. You have to have the confidence to wear this highly fashionable piece. Unbuttoned can look more casual. Buttoned is more formal. Wear it and feel like a fabulous fashionista!

Stunning.
I've rented this dress a few times. I'm 5'8 and ordered the long. I wore 4" heels in the pic and the dress still fell just beautifully to the ground. So if you're not 5'8 or don't want to wear 4" heels, then don't rent the long. It's very comfortable and just hugged my form perfectly. Loads of compliments.

Gorgeous top for formal or casual. It's lined so it's really comfortable. Fit perfectly. But be careful because the sequins can fall off if a thread snags.

Lovely, chic, comfortable
I typically wear an 8 or 6 but this dress runs so big. I ordered the US 6 and 2, and the 2 was perfect (I'm 5'8 and 140lbs). By the way, I nev-er wear a size 2, just to illustrate how big this dress runs. The sleeve is artistically long. Completely non-functional. You have to either just not use that arm to hold anything or use fabric tape, like I did, to fashionable tape the sleep above my hand. It looked great. But kudos to anyone who owns the sleeve at its intended length! Loved this dress. Again, if you are a US 8, order the US 2. Loved this!

Stunning!
It is a stunning dress. It's so easy to wear, and very comfortable. I probably could've worn a 6 even though I'm typically an 8 (which this dress was). I say that because I had to keep hiking the dress up in the back so it didn't show my strapless bra. Other than that, a show stopper.

A show stopper but you've got to own the look because the girls are present!
Contrary to other reviews, I thought the shoulders fit just fine. Many said the dress is too tight in the shoulders. Not true for me. I loved everything about this dress and will probably buy it. I'm a 36B and while the dress is thick enough to hold everything in...tape is really needed to hold the girls inside. I didn't mind how they looked while I was in Vegas but I think it'd look classier to hold them in so there's a nice subtle hint of them instead. You have to be confident to wear this dress. It's a knock out!!

Gorgeous, show stopper
Make sure it's a good fit otherwise you can get lost in this dress by the ruffles. I'm 5'8", 145lbs, 36B and I could've worn the 6 or 6L. I ordered the 8L and had to belt it because it was a tad big in the waist. This dress is best with a snug fit. I loved it!

Always a classic dress
RL dresses are always classics and fit me perfectly. I bought this dress from Unlimited. The first thing I noticed was how heavy this dress is - lots of material and just feels like a well made dress. I wear it to work. I'm 5'8" and it goes just below my knees. I'm not so crazy about the side slit, especially being in a professional setting, but I bought it nevertheless. It'd also be a wonderful evening dress. Just lovely and I adore the pattern and hues.

It fit every curve and as a tall woman at 5'8", the 44L was great and I got to work a kitten heel (yay). I got compliments all night. I slayed.

Beautiful dress, unique
It's a lovely dress. I read the reviews and heard it was tight so I ordered a size larger. It was comfortable but just slightly big. I'll re-order with my regular size (8) and see how it goes. But I felt really special in it.

Great looking dress but hard to get into.
I returned the dress because it was too tight. I'm normally an 8 but I think I'd need a 10 for this. There are no zippers so it's difficult to get into. I don't think you can step into it - I didn't try. I slipped it over my head, and it was a struggle. It's a lovely dress though, and I'll try again with a 10.
