Cute, but did not wear
It was very cute, but much more form fitting than shown on the model. I was newly pregnant and way too self conscious to wear this, but under normal circumstances would definitely have worn it.

Too short for church
I really liked this dress, but it was way too short to wear to church. It was very cute otherwise though.

Did not wear
I really wanted to like this dress, but seam at the waist fell at an unflattering spot and the pleating ended up feeling unflattering as well :(

Tons of compliments!
I actually own a different version of this dress, but wanted to get something black for an evening engagement party. I added the necklace that the model is wearing at the last minute and I'm glad that I did as they looked great together. I don't have a large chest and it fit me well, so I would either recommend sizing up or not renting if you're over a B.

Could be cute, but didn't wear it.
The dress is cute and would be very comfortable as the material is stretchy, but it was also incredibly short on me. I wouldn't have been able to sit or bend over, so I opted to wear a different dress instead. My only other complaint is that it's a little puffy in the waist where the skirt connects to the top.

Amazing necklace!
This necklace is so beautiful, but definitely a statement piece and I think could only work with a pretty understated dress. I got tons of compliments on it all evening.

everyone will compliment this dress!
This dress was PERFECT. It was completely comfortable and I got a million compliments. It's not the type of dress that you'd wear often, so i was glad that I was able to rent it.

great casual dress
This dress fit great and was very comfortable. Not overly dressy, but a great dress for a warm day. I was worried it would be too short judging from the picture, but it was perfect in real life.

pretty, but heavy
This was my mystery bling and while they were very pretty, they really hurt my ears! I've never worn clip-ons before so maybe this is just what the feel like. As soon as the ceremony was over I had to take them off b/c my ears were throbbing.

beautiful, but better as a top
i love this and would love to own it. The only thing I would note is that it is a lot shorter than i expected. I wore it with pants (it still made a cute top), b/c it definitely fit more like a shirt than a dress.

perfect black tie dress
This is an extremely flattering dress, but the SR was too short and had a lot of pulls in the material. The MR fit ok, but was a little longer than I would have wanted, but I just wore taller shoes. The deep V neckline makes it impossible to wear a bra, which was okay for me, but since the larger size was also a little loose, but I used some fashion tape to hold it in place and it ended up being great.

great mystery bling
Very pretty earrings. They were my mystery bling and looked great with my dress and are much prettier in real life than on the website.
