So flattering!
This dress is a stunner. For reference, I am 5'7" and 146lbs and usually wear an 8-10. I carry most of my weight in my stomach so I thought this style might be very unflattering but it's the exact opposite. This dress tucked me in and fit perfectly in a large. It's a very dark red; I would almost call it eggplant. I can easily wear a strapless bra with this dress. Such a beautiful dress!!

Beautiful fabric
This dress is tight in the rib cage but large everywhere else. I have D cups and I had to stuff the top of this dress but the rib cage area felt really tight. I usually wear a 14/16 but I'm glad I sized up. The skirt is very full. I love the silver threading and the fabric is just beautiful.

Pretty but poofy and super tight at ribcage
If you have a larger ribcage, you NEED to size up. I normally wear a 12 or 14, and I couldn't get the 14 zipped up past the rib cage until I took my bra off completely. It didn't lay flat the way that the picture made it seem - it was a much poofier dress than I expected so you didn't notice the pretty hi-lo hemline I was looking forward to. The top layer poofing just made it less flattering. Overall, just not as sophisticated looking as I'd hoped.

Heavy but beautiful
I have super sensitive ears, and these definitely made my ears sore by the end of the night. However, I wore them for probably 9 hours, so keep that in mind. Overall, they were so beautiful and added so much to my wedding ensemble that I would wear them all over again despite the pain because they were perfect looking. They arrived dirty and dull, but a quick cleaning fixed that, and they shined all night (so just plan to clean them and be aware ahead of time - i was scrambling to clean them before right before I left for my wedding). For me, they were the perfect size to balance out my updo and dress. I would not wear these with a necklace. They were enough on their own.

Class and Quality
This dress was a true 14. The color was so beautiful - very purple, though it photographed more magenta. I wore to a wedding and I got so many compliments. People I didn't know were stopping me to say what a beautiful dress it was. I wore with nude pumps. It felt thick (definitely a fall or winter dress) and the lining was a pretty gold. The only drawback was that the pockets, which, while handy, did add some weight to my hips. But, the overall shape was flattering and hid my tummy so I could forgive that.

Adorable, girly dress
This dress was super cute and looked just like the website. Make sure you get it a day or two early so that you can either steam or hang the dress. It showed up crushed/flattened. Once the tulle was fluffed out it was great, though. I didn't end up wearing it because they sent it to me as a backup style and the size was slightly too small for me. But, I'd rent it again in a 14!

Looked better on
This was sent as a replacement at the last minute. I didn't like the fabric at first, but it grew on me and I got lots of compliments. Fit like a true 14.

Flattering and comfortable
My tummy is my problem area and this dress was very flattering for that. The shoulders were slightly too wide but that is probably what made the cap sleeves more comfortable for me than some other reviewers have noted. The length was appropriate for the daytime wedding I wore it to. The color was beautiful and there was silver thread running through the dress - but it was not flashy. Someone told me I was wearing a princess dress!
