Awesome style- Comfortable fit
This was for a partially outdoor fall wedding and it was perfect! It was longer than I expected; but at 5'10" with a small heel it looked elegant and it was extremely comfortable to sit, walk around in and dance. the one shoulder was comfortable and there is slight boning in the mid section which was a great help!

Beautiful dress, sort of weird fit
Such a gorgeous dress - heavy fabric perfect for a winter/cool wedding, beautiful detailing, tea length (meant for tall girls... would be too long for someone short) ; however just a weird fit for me. It was tight up top which sort of flattened/squished the chest area (not for a larger-chested girl), which was ok since the fabric was so heavy I don't know that the dress would have stayed up otherwise. Also the boning in the bodice was pretty painful throughout the night - no one noticed and it was still a gorgeous dress; just not very comfortable.

Beautiful color - weird fit
This is one of those dresses that look way better on the skinny model than on an actual person - it was tight in weird spots and I was constantly pulling the dress back down over my butt all night. The color (a pale green) was gorgeous and I got lot of compliments on that (and the fact I was able to wear a normal strapless bra) which was great - but this dress is definitely better suited for a slim-body petite type... not so much for my more athletic curve bottom-heavy type.

Comfortable and cute!
I wore this dress to an end-of-the-summer wedding where it was still nice out and it was perfect. Comfortable material, hugs in the right places, and perfect for wearing just a simple strapless bra (no stickies needed!) Thicker material made the dress fancier and paired with dramatic jewelry and shoes was perfect for an evening reception. Loved it!

beautifully elegant/much shorter than it appears
I loved this dress - it was elegant, interesting, and I got compliments on it all night. The boning in the mid section is great because there is no need for spanx; however the dress on the model image makes it look like the length is almost knee-length but it was muuuuuuch shorter than that. For a tall girl like myself, it was a bit annoying because I was uncomfortable sitting down all night and had to keep pulling the hem down to make sure I looked appropriate.

Nice color; not my favorite dress
The dress was for my wedding rehearsal and it was a great color - I didn't want to wear white so the tan/nude color was great - but the top was really tight and it was tight throughout the midsection... not the most flattering. I would guess perhaps for a smaller build it would fit better/look better.

Comfortable and awesome color
I was nervous that having the slits on the sides and the tight-look of the dress would make it uncomfortable and too risque but it was quite the opposite! The material is thick but helps keep things tight so there was no need for spanx and the slits were the perfect amount of interesting detail without being too ridiculous. I was able to wear a regular strapless bra with nothing showing and sitting/dancing was no problem in this dress! Loved it!

Feminine and Pretty
I wore this for my bridal shower and got tons of compliments - it was comfortable but yet extremely detailed in the lace and construction which made it feminine and pretty - perfect for the occasion. I am tall so the length was perfect and you are able to wear a normal (nude colored) bra without it being seen through the lace details at the top. Great dress!

Fun dress for a bachelorette Party
I wore this dress for my bachelorette party and it was both fun and comfortable. The thick fabric made it so i didn't feel like I needed spanx underneath and it didn't show any of my undergarments through the fabric. I am pretty tall, so I was worried about how short it may be, but for a night out it was perfect. (just about to my fingertips when holding my arms at my sides).

Comfortable & Easy to Wear
This was for a work event, so staying professional while looking fancy was spot on with this dress. The dress' length was perfect for my height, but I could see how someone shorter may get a bit lost in the length. I am not super busty, so I was afraid of the neck detailing to come too low, but it was perfect with just a hint of sexy (and you don't need many accessories because of how ornate it is!) Only suggestion that I wish I had done: wear spanx underneath. The black color and thick, soft fabric does a great job of hiding small imperfections, but the style of dress doesn't do any favors for the midsection. Spanx would do a good job of smoothing everything out underneath. Noted for the future! :)
