I felt like an evil queen
This dress was very comfortable! I love low necklines, but did safety-pin the neckline to keep it in place a little. It was definitely shorter in the back than expected- a combo of the fun asymmetrical hem and my big butt lol. I wore opaque tights and felt totally comfortable. This was great for my pear shape, but it has so many fun draping details that I think it would flatter other bodies too.

Pretty yet mature
I couldn't receive my backup size in my original dress, so I selected this! While my original size- original dress ended up working, I did like this as a backup! The higher neckline felt a little more mature than what I was wanting, but it was a nice formal option and flattering on my pear shape!

Crazy Fitted
The fabric had a little stretch that made it forgiving on my extremely thigh-heavy pear shape! It was particularly lucky since my backup size became unavailable. The high neck meant I had to be aware when sitting so I didn't choke myself, but otherwise this dress was a total show stopper. I paired it with opera length satin gloves and loved it!

Lovely and secure!
This bracelet was bold without feeling heavy and stayed secure all night! I wore it over black opera length gloves and it really stood out!

Fun and bold
I got this necklace as a Mystery Bling. It's the first time I've really disliked a mystery bling pairing, but I really liked the necklace with another dress I already owned, so I got to wear it anyway. It was sturdy but not too heavy, and the beads lay flat all evening without twisting around!

Cute dress, but difficult for pears
This dress is woven fabric with no give, so if you fit the shape of the dress it's gonna be great, but it's not very forgiving if you don't. I can wear an 8 or a 6 in dresses that are fitted up top but more forgiving in the hip/thigh, but I had to go up to a 10 for this dress. It looked fine on, but wasn't very comfortable to move in.

Golden goddess
This dress was so comfortable, and worked great on my pear shape! The cutout was racy without being too much. The geometric design helped emphasize my curves! This is the shortest dress I've worn in years- I like to hide my thighs!- but I felt so confident! I couldn't find my sticky-bra, but the material was thick enough that I was comfortable going braless.

Adorable but impractical
I recieved this as a mystery bling add on. It looked great with my dress, but was tiny! I carried a small phone, one lipstick, id, and a credit card. Every time I opened the clutch to check my phone I had to carefully rearrange everything to be able to close it again. In addition, if you want to use the strap, be prepared to wrestle that any time you close the clutch!

Beauty is pain
I adored this dress! I got both the 6r and 8r and felt comfortable in both. I ended up wesring the 8r to have room for canapes and an open bar at the black tie wedding I was attending lol! The fit was very comfortable, but there was one snag. This dress had the SHARPEST sequins I have ever encountered. Be prepared to feel fabulous all night and spend the next day tendibg to your wounds!

Size down for small busts!
I wore this to a formal awards ceremony and felt fantastic! I got an 8 and a 6L, and since the dress fits loose through the hips I went with the 6L. It was actually still loose in the bust- the dart came to an awkward point. Not super noticeable unless that's where you're already looking, though! Otherwise it was comfortable to move in and I got a ton of compliments!
