Beautiful pattern and color
I got a 2 and 4 and ended up wearing the 2. It was still loose in the bust and waist and the length was just below the knees. I should've gotten a 0 but somehow I feel it would've been hard to breathe in a size 0. I do have a pretty long torso compared to most people so that could be the cause of the less than stellar fit. I LOVE that this dress has DEEP pockets! My keys went in without pulling the dress down or messing with the shape, it was great! There's a very slight high/low hem on the skirt which is cute. The little cut out in the back is just the right size and placement to allow you to wear a normal bra. And the purple is so much more vibrant than the picture shows, really gorgeous in the sunlight. I would totally rent this again, probably in a size 0 for a better fit :)

So classy!
I rented this with the Yoana Baraschi Oscar Wild Dinner Dress and it was such a great pairing! The necklace is a great length and fits in the v neck perfectly. One minor thing: the pearls have a tendency to twist and cause the flower parts to flip up so I had to pat it down every so often.

First sparkly dress ever!
I rented this pretty last minute for NYE. All other dresses I had my eye on were gone and there was only a size 4 left in this dress so I pulled the trigger on it. I was nervous with no back up size but it fit! It was comfortably loose everywhere with more wiggle room in the hips and bust area if you're more endowed in those areas than me. It's hard to tell from the picture but the length was just above the knees and I didn't feel short at all in this dress which was surprising given my strong feelings about knee length skirts haha. I was afraid the sequins would feel scratchy but no problem here. I could've danced all night in this :)

For my Bday
Loved this dress but it was way too long for me! Had to use double sided tape to hem the dress and that was difficult. The skirt is cut as a circle so it wasn't a straight hem to take up. I did wear flats since I injured my knee and couldn't wear tall shoes. However even with my tallest heels I think the hem would still drag a little on the floor. The waist and chest were snug on me but not unbearable. No bra needed!

lovely valentine's day dress
I loved how twirly this dress was! everything fit great, plenty of breathing room without sacrificing my figure. One small thing about the dress I didn't like was the way the tulle (i think it's tulle) was sewn onto the slip. I wish it was sewn in at the waist and not mid-thigh so the look would be more seamless. I had to re-fluff the dress upon receiving but I expected that to happen from the shipping. I wish I had worn it out dancing! Next time!

Nice and conservative for a work party
It fit loose in the middle so I felt a bit shapeless but the lace was so pretty that I didn't mind.

Fun Birthday Dress!
The fit is very tight with minimal stretch. Not to say that it was uncomfortable, it's almost the same tight feeling as wearing shapewear actually. There was no way I would've been able to fit into a small, let alone breathe if I managed to zip it up. It looked like a size 0 or 00 to me. Medium was a squeeze so I felt like it was more a size 2 but the stretch was enough to fit myself in. One of my major concerns about any dress is the length, since I'm on the petite side but this was a great length for me, about an inch above the knee. The only thing that was off putting was that the bandage part in the upper back was the same color as ACE bandages, even my sister made that comment. I felt a little weird about it but it's such a minor thing and the pinks were so pretty I couldn't pass up an opportunity to wear it out! I could wear a strapless bra just fine, no need for the strapless/backless ones. Paired it with some nude pumps and had a great time at my bday celebration!
