Loved it
Length was doable with a 4” heel but wish it had been a hair longer. It fit like a glove (I’m a fairly athletic shape, with built butt and thighs). Loved it

Awesome!
Really loved this dress. The color was fun, the cut/shape were unique, and it was streeeetttchyyy, making it even more comfortable. My only “eh” was that the slit fell open when sitting, so just be mindful of that. I got lots of compliments!

Cute dress
Cute dress, but on the short side for my 5’9” frame. It was fine standing but sitting it rode up a bit more than I can be comfortable in. I didn’t end up wearing it. The arms are a bit scratchy as there’s no added layer between the sequins and your skin.

So cute and fun, but…
Fit was on point—I’m usually a 4 or 6. The 4 fit perfectly with a little wiggle room, the 6 would have worked too—the only issue and reason I could wear neither was that the straps were NOT adjustable, leaving me running the risk of flashing my fellow party goers if I moved too much one way or another. (Will note, I’m VERY flat chested, so maybe a bigger chest will help avoid exposure, but be warned of a pretty low neckline). Sadly I couldn’t wear the dress.

Not for me
This was sent to me as a back up due to an issue with an order, so not something I would have chosen. I tried it on anyway, and kind of laughed. The material is SUPER thin--like see through thin. It was definitely a high water on me, at 5'9", and the straps were outrageously too long. I felt incredibly exposed. Maybe it's for you, but it's definitely not for me!

Fun and comfortable!
I ended up wearing this jumpsuit and was super comfortable in it! I am glad I went with the Long--I wore 3 inch heels and it still had a good drag at the bottom without being sloppy. It was easy to go to the bathroom (a huge plus for a jumpsuit newbie) and sit and move in. It had just enough stretch. My only issue is that it probably would have fit better on top for me if I was a little bit bigger chested. I had it tied as tight as I could without creating a camel toe (sorry!) and still be able to cover the right side of my chest. Otherwise, I was glad I rented it and wore it!

Didn't end up wearing the dress.
This is definitely on the smaller side. The arms were a little tight for me (but I do have more muscular arms). I rented a M and a L, and wore neither. What I think I disliked the most was the weird way the fabric laid in the front near the "twist". It looked weird and felt huge and unflattering. The rest was beautiful-fabric, color, length etc.

Loved it!
I wore this dress for a wedding in Georgia. Everything about it was awesome! It's very stretchy, and the slit in the back is awesome. I got many complements! I felt classy without feeling too sexy for a wedding! The material is a little bit heavy for warmer weather, but it's very breathable. The 4L would have been fine, but it was just a little tighter than the 6L in the rib cage area in the back. So in the end I wore the 6L with 2.5" heels and it was perfect! I think a 3-4" heel would have been ok too in terms of length.

Not what I expected
I had such high hopes for this dress! I thought it looked awesome in the pictures and on other renters. I loved everything about it--except that with 2.5" heels and my height 5'9", the 4L was NOT long enough, this I didn't wear it. Not sure what happened there, but tall girls be warned. Overall the rest of the fit was true to size!

Loved the embellishments of the zippers and the contrasting sides!
I'm super glad I found this dress, but most importantly, I'm super glad I was able to go to the Chicago Store to try it on! I am usually a 4-6 in dresses (standard brands, like JCrew, Banana, Calvin Klein etc), so when I tried this on in an 8, I knew I would need a size larger dress as back up. I loved the material and overall look of the dress, but I wouldn't say it was the most comfortable thing I've worn, as its extremely tight fitting with little give. The zipper embellishments are awesome though!
