The dress was way too small, I couldn't even get it on.
My back up size was not available, so I never got to wear. I would strongly recommend sizing up.

So many compliments!
It's a forgiving dress, with a slight stretch to the fabric.

Perfect dress for a wedding guest
The dress has a bit of stretch to it, so it made it comfortable for a long night of dancing. It was also a great length on me. I never worried that I would flash someone when moving, but it was still on the shorter side. I ended up wearing the 14W. I will note that there was a noticeable difference in the copper coloring on the 16W. It was much darker and shinier. I liked the subtle shine on the 14W, and was glad it fit.

5 months pregnant -- was still flattering!
This dress runs large, as I'm 5 months pregnant and I still wore my regular size. Dress is also long, even on my 5'8" frame. It fell right above my knee. The dress is more beautiful in person, and the fit is great! I felt so comfortable and it was so flattering. I would suggest getting your back up size in a smaller option.

Perfect for the Beyoncé concert!
Gorgeous dress! It's even better in person. The 22 fits me perfectly, and I usually wear a 16, sometimes an 18. The 22 was the only size available so I chanced it. I'm glad it worked out this way, because I don't think a smaller size would of worked. Order 2 sizes up and 3 sizes up for the free second. Sadly that means if you're usually in a size higher than an 18, I don't see this fitting. I'm on the taller side at 5'8" and this dress is short on me, but not unwearable. It covers my butt and the thickest parts of my thighs.

Perfect with a blue dress
Gorgeous earrings that really popped with my blue dress. Not too heavy on the ear.

Perfect for a summer wedding
I love the length of the sleeves. I don't like my big arms, so this made me feel more comfortable. The dress I pretty long, right above my knee on me, and I'm on the taller end at 5'8". I'm also 6 weeks pregnant and not feeling like myself. This gave me plenty of coverage, but still fit beautifully and made me feel pretty.
