I rented a size large. I am 5'3" and about 160lbs with an athletic build, and it was a really comfortable fit. The sleeves were a tiny bit long, bu that was really it. I got lots of compliments at the party we went to. It was a 50th birthday party at a country club and multiple other guests came up and asked me where my dress came from.

This was so great for the gala I rented it for. Classic with an edgy twist. I was super comfortable all night. It definitely runs a little small. I usually wear a 10/12ish in US sizes and went up based on other reviews. I wore the 16R and the torso was still a little short. I am an athletic build and pretty much a rectangle for body shape. My torso is pretty short so if you have a long torso, this may not be right for you. I usually struggle with jumpsuit styles because I don't really have a defined waist, but the peplum style of the skirt definitely gave me a "better shape." I styled it pretty simply with killer shoes and an awesome bag and I felt pretty fabulous all night. I'd highly recommend this and will probably rent again!

I rented this dress for a gala awards show and dinner. I usually fluctuate between a 10 and a 12, tried both in this dress and finally settled on the 10. The 12 was a bit too large in the busy area and a bit too long even with 6" heels. The 10 was a smidge tight around my rib cage (which admittedly is ginormous), but I decided to (literally) suck it up. The high/low action of the skirt is gorgeous especially when walking as the long part moves beautifully. Under garments took a little bit of creativity due to the low sides and back. I wore a stick on, front clasp only bra and some good old spanx. The top of the spanx came dangerously close to sticking out in the top at the back, but managed to stay in with some finagling. For fun a popped the outfit with a bright red long dangling earring and some bright red lips. All in all, I felt pretty fabulous and got lots of compliments.

This dress is gorgeous and super comfortable. I got lots of compliments and felt great in it! I'm a sucker for any dress that has pockets and dropping my phone into the pocket didn't ruin the line of the dress at all. The hook and eye at the neck was a bit tricky to do up, so make sure you have a friend who can help. Fit was spot on. I'm 5'3" and 142lbs. My ribs and shoulders are really broad and I usually have trouble finding dresses that fit my ribs, but this one fit perfectly. I highly recommend this dress!

This dress was fantastic. I wore the larger size (10R) as my rib cage is wide and I frequently have trouble with more fitted bodices. I am 5'3" and about 147lbs. This dress was formal and comfortable. It was edgy with the mesh, but not overstated. I felt elegant, comfortable, and at ease. Totally recommend this dress! (Side note, the other dress in the picture is a Rent the Runway as well!)
