Runs small
Size up one size- tight in the rib cage. Beautiful dress otherwise

For large chests only!
Beautiful silhouette but don't bother if you are an A/B or small C. Bust was gappy and weird shaped darts. A full chest would eliminate this problem. I'm a 32C, 5'8", 122lbs and the 2 would've otherwise been perfect.

Very sexy dress
Absolutely love this dress- perfect amount of skin with the cut out, thick yet stretchy material, but it definitely runs small and short. I should've sized up just for comfort. I will rent this dress again for sure though!

So comfy! Great print
This dress is like wearing nothing- so flowy and comfortable. It does run large though, but I know that's the style. Definitely size down.

Great color but weird fit
Cuts it too much in the shoulders, I'm thin but it made me feel like a linebacker. Also too much fabric through the hips. Too bad because the color is awesome (think neon orange)

Perfect bridesmaid dress!
I got to choose a black dress for a wedding, and I'm so glad I chose this. Feminine and very flattering, loved the sheer mesh overlay. I wore a nubra and the bodice held it in place so well. Would wear again!

Sadly didn't work for my occasion
This dress is SHORT.... A couple extra inches would've made it absolutely perfect. I rented it for my sons preschool auction and it would've been inappropriate for that, but great for a night out with my husband in Vegas- ha!

Great for a night out
Love the neoprene "scuba" fit of clover canyon dresses.... Tight but longer length still keeps it conservative. My only complaint is the arms are slightly wide, but I have skinny arms so maybe it's just me. Would love to wear this dress again!

Really stood out in this dress. Add gold accessories!
This dress was amazing! Perfect fit, gorgeous coral color. I wore it to a black tie summer wedding and felt awesome the entire night. It hangs beautifully and the cups are lightly lined so no need for a bra --> bonus! In 3 inch heels it hit the ground exactly where it should. Would have loved to own and wear again.

It was a perfect dress for NYE!
Love the style of this dress, but definitely suggest going up one size if you are curvy and have hips at all. I am usually a 4 but felt more comfortable in the 6. Double sided tape helps hold the strapless side up too.

Dress fit perfectly and was comfortable for the entire night!
Adore this dress!!!! Gorgeous color, super flattering fit. The 4 (my normal size) fit well, but the 2 was shorter and more snug, which I thought looked cuter. Wish I owned it, so versatile and easy to dress up or down.
