Fun Dress
Dress was a nice cross between conservative and fun. Only complaint was that it is not an easy, wrinkle-free dress if you are packing this dress for a vacation.

Flattering
This is not my usual style of dress to order with the pastel pattern and the ties/bows. I was nervous all the strings/bows would look awkward or cut across the body wrong, but I was encouraged that there were good reviews of this dress on different body types. I can report that it looked nice on a small chest and that you can wear a bra.

Lovely Dress: Loose on top, fitted on bottom
I wore this to a wedding in Mexico, and I received lots of compliments. If you are a pear or hourglass shape, I would size up. I normally wear a size 2, but wore a size 4 because of how fitted it was in the hips. I had to use fashion tape on the v-neck to keep it closed. If you are small busted, be prepared with fashion tape or a safety pin!

Tropical elegance at a destination wedding
The print was fun and flattering, and the material was both light and tasteful - perfect for an outdoor, black tie wedding.

Beautiful color; great for winter
I ordered this dress for a dinner party. Despite it being conservative, I thought it was a sexy dress and very figure flattering. The only reason I did not wear it was that I found it to be a little too warm for an outdoor event in Texas.

Key To Success Dress
Trina Turk

Usual Size: 2

Can be styled to be casual or more dressy; beautiful color
I only had a size 2 since this was my back-up dress, and although I normally wear a size 2 and am not particularly tall or curvy, I would have preferred a size 4. Unless you are in your early 20's or are wearing this dress for a girls' night, I would recommend renting a size up. I found it to be a little tight and short for a dinner party.

Bump friendly
Beautiful dress. I wore it 5 months pregnant to a black tie wedding. The stretch jersey was very forgiving and surprisingly still formal, likely due to the color and length of the dress.
