Tight in the bust, could not wear
Fits perfectly otherwise (rented a 36), but was OBNOXIOUSLY tight on my 32DD bust. Could not wear without a full view of inside underboob.

Super frumpy
Beautiful material and adorable design…but the waistline hit in such a weird place, it looked like I had a pregnant belly with super saggy boobs. Ick. May be nice for gals with no curves?

Didn’t wear—size up
Gorgeous concept, crappy execution. I’m a solid 4 across the board, and this was rumpled tight above my butt and too tight to zip around d my 32DD bust. Too bad.

Didn't wear, so flimsy
Cute silhouette and fit fine, just super flimsy material. Felt like a thin nightgown, had no weight to give it any kind of movement. Ugh.

Love this designer--this dress just didn't flatter me
Great material and fun design. The round neck made this feel like an apron. Would have been better with a v-neck or faux wrap silhouette.

Didn't wear--shapeless and ill-fitting
Wanted to love this. Such pretty material and an ethereal design. But the waist/rib/bodice drawstrings were placed so awkwardly that there's nowhere for your breasts to go. Maybe if you are totally flat-chested, this would work, but I'd size down. If you have boobs--unless you don't mind a seam running across the bottom/fullest part of them--don't rent.

cute but bulky on top
I'm a 32DD/D on top, so was surprised that this in a size 4 felt bulky and overwhelming to me from the waist up. Super cute dress, and I might have been better off with a 2 for a fitted look, but I think the proportions of top to bottom on this are just slightly off.

cute concept, but didn't work quite right
No one has shared that this is basically a french terry material. Yuck. It fit okay, slightly tight on my 32DD bust. The material was a REAL turnoff, though. Would have been way better in a crisp poplin.

cute and TTS
Fit well, easy to style, has pockets. Fit my 32DD bust in a slightly awkward fashion (compressed the girls downward), but I didn't want to wear a bra w/it, so I just dealt with it.

way too much fabric for petites
Beautiful construction and quality...but at 5'2", 122lbs, 32DD, this was just way too much dress. I got the 6, since there weren't many reviews, to be sure it would fit my bust. I could have gone with the 4, for sure, but could tell that this design--combined with the weight of the denim--would still be way too much on my frame. Much better suited for our taller friends!

Too tight in chest
I read reviews and thought this would work for me. I’m a solid 4, with 32DD chest. This would not button across my chest without looking ridiculous. Otherwise, beautiful piece.

Almost perfect...
Love this dress, and the fit is ALMOST TTS. I'm 5'2", 122lbs, 32DD--wide ribcage. The skirt on this size 4 fit perfectly/as expected, and the top portion zipped up just fine...and held the girls in really well (gave some perk!). However, I just could not get past the little bit of what I'd call "bra fat" scrunching out of the back of dress at the bottom band of the top of the dress. I may try sizing up to a 6 to see if that fixes it, but my guess is it will be too big otherwise.

Perfect fit, but my rental had a hole in the shoulder. Swapped out for another in the same size, and then bought it! Lots of cleavage here, so not for the shy among us, but very flattering--even without a bra--on my 32DDs. Color/fabric beautiful.
