It was a Halloween costume!
I was Mrs. Howell from Gilligan's Island for Halloween and this dress was perfect! I normally wear a 14, however this dress was a little snug in the chest (I'm a 36DDD). If I was wearing this to a wedding, etc I would have gone with the 14. Because it was a costume and I teach in an elementary school I went for comfort. I would definitely rent this to wear to a "normal" event. It was a great dress and it got a lot of compliments.

Confident and Comfortable!
I wore this for an awards brunch - and I was on the committee that selected the award recipient. The dress was super comfortable and fit wonderfully! As a 36D+ I have a hard time finding a dress that fits my chest and this one was a winner! I received a ton of compliments and I felt great in it. With all the excitement of the awards I forgot to have someone take my picture in it though!

Super Pretty!
I wore these earrings with the Shoshana Lace Sierra Dress and they were a perfect match! They were very comfortable, although by the end of the day they were a bit heavy. I will definitely rent these again!

Felt Fabulous at Gatsby themed wedding!
The fit was great, I was so comfortable all night. I agree with the other reviewers though, it does seem tight when you are trying to pull it on. However, once it is on, the fit is fantastic. I wore it with Converse due to recent knee surgery, but I actually got complements on the combo!

Felt fabulous the whole night!
I don't carry much to begin with, but this bag fit everything I needed with room to spare - phone, cash/license, lip gloss, and a few little extras. It was great and matched the dress perfectly.

I felt confident & comfortable in this dress! I got so many compliments, and I felt wonderful.
I am very large chested (36DDD), so I needed a bit of fashion tape to keep the dress in place, but even without the tape, I didn't look inappropriate in it. The dress was incredibly comfortable, although the sequins did rub a bit on the underside of my arms. I wore it with nave blue Converse, thanks to reconstructive knee surgery - but it actually looked pretty cute. This is the first dress, in an incredibly long time, that I felt comfortable in - both mentally and physically. I highly recommend it! I rented earrings and a clutch to complete the outfit. I'm actually considering renting the dress again for another event - I loved it so much!
