Tall Girls Beware, Very Short!
Rented this as a backup dress for a wedding. I didn't end up wearing it because I felt it was a little too revealing for a wedding. If you're tall, this is going to be super short. I actually saw a petite girl wearing a coral version of this at the wedding. Since she was shorter, the dress actually looked a lot classier on her.

Unique print, great fit!
This dress is tailored very well. It's super flattering on. The thickness material is substantial but wasn't too hot. I'm pretty tall at 5 foot 10 and I just had to sit down and stand up carefully because the dress is short.

Beautiful earrings!
These long earrings are not too heavy. They really are a unique mix of materials. Highly recommend.

This necklace is huge and awesome with just the right amount of glitz. I highly recommend it. I think this necklace totally made the outfit.

Awkward Fit
Couple things to note if you are renting this dress! It is far bluer in person and not purple as the picture shows. This dress is fairly fitted until the first black stripe. I didn't love the way it hugged in this section. If you're going to be in a lot of photos...when it's dark and a flash is used, the stripes don't appear black...instead kind of awkward nude mesh cutouts. Not my favorite rental, but someone with a different body type might have better luck with this one!

Got tons of compliments on this dress/necklace combo at a pre- wedding party!
PROS: Super comfortable. Non-restricting. It's a great length for taller people and the scalloped bottom is really cool. Color is very eye-catching. I think it definitely needs a necklace. Try the Belle Fleur Collar. CONS: None, wish I had worn this to the actual wedding!

Great dress!
This dress fit very well and was very flattering, but I decided to go with my 2nd style! I would definitely rent this dress again though.

Feeling totally confident on the dance floor on my 25th birthday!
I wore this dress to my birthday party in Las Vegas. I highly recommend it. The color really pops (even more so than in the model photo) and the distorted hounds tooth is pretty cool in-person. Here's the insider scoop on the fit: The cut outs aren't as risky as you think they are. They fell near the rib-section of my stomach. I loved them. One thing to note: The dress itself is much much lighter than you think it's going to be. I wore Spanx under the dress due to the lightness (and you couldn't see them through the cutouts.) Tip: Wear this dress on a night when everyone else is wearing black, you'll be the standout!

I won't forget this dress because I was wearing it when Mike Posner gave a surprise performance @ the club we were at.
I wore this dress out in Las Vegas for my birthday. It was definitely appropriate for the venue: super tight, lots of cleavage, open back! MATERIAL: This dress is made very, very well. The bandage material sucks you in in all of the right places. I was surprised that the metallic sheen on the dress was actually a second material and not part of the main fabric. The sheen was pilling a little in places (perhaps just due to many wears?) Regardless, it still looked great. SIZE: I found that size was very flexible. Usually I'd wear a L but that size was not available for the dates I needed it. I risked it and got the M and it fit fine. The stretch gives you some leeway. UNDERGARMENTS: I bought a backless adhesive bra but ended up just wearing a standard strapless bra. With a little fashion tape work, I was able to wear it without it being visible in the front or back. Buy fashion tape and bring a few strips with you when you go out. You'll likely need to re-stick so there's no gap between the dress and your bra.

Their Sizing Scale is OFF!
This dress is TINY. Their version of sizing is very, very small. If you're tall, this dress will not work for you. I had to send this one back :(
