Flattering and comfortable for a a fall wedding.
It was a very flattering dress. It has a skirt shift and you can wear a normal bra with the dress. The snap kept coming undone for me, which I attribute to wear and tear rather than a size issue. Dress wasn't too low cut either.

Smock Waist Midi Dress

Great for dancing
Color is a beautiful light gray. I wore it with a strapless bra, it has minimal padding built in. Spaghetti straps looked fine on me with an athletic build. Material was structured but not suffocating. A little bit of the boning around the busy was coming out but I was able to push it back in. I liked the mixed length and it was a great skirt for spinning while dancing.

Flattering and fun!
It was great being able to wear standard undergarments with this dress. The side cut out was very chic. Depending on lighting or how you accessorize the blue top half can really pop.

Bright and flirty!
Dress was very forgiving and not constricting in the waist. It is pink and vibrant. I loved wearing it for a California beach wedding. It was a bit short and I had to be very cognizant to not bend over. It just grazed my fingertips and I do not have a long torso. It was short enough that I couldn't wear Spanx underneath without it showing. I wore the dress with a strapless bra because the straps showed in the back. The band was mostly covered by the fabric though.

Conservative cut but fun spark of pattern!
Not a lot of stretch at the waist, I went up to the larger size for comfort. The length was good and I loved the extra pattern at the bottom. It was a fairly conservative looking dress, which is what I wanted, but with some hidden fun!

Pretty flowing dress for a summer wedding.
The neck was VERY tight and the zipper was flimsy, I needed help to get it fully zipped. It was flattering once on, since I have a muscular back and shoulders. I am tall and it was a great length and a lot of fun for dancing.

Great dress for a special night out. It is a nice pop of color.
I was pleased that the arm holes weren't restictive, I had been concerned about that. The color is fantastic, very bright. Their is a shift underneath and it is nice that you can wear a normal bra.

Great material
Dress came in a bit on the front chest because of the large armhole. I sized up for a little extra fabric because I would be playing with it. Also, the waist band does not have any give so size accordingly. But it really is a beautiful dress crafted with great breathable materials.

Pockets and a great shape!
It was a great dress with a funky shape! It was a body con dress with added pleats for visual interest, which included pockets. The fabric was embroidered as well. Pattern is bold and beautiful.

Pockets are important for a Bachelorette party!
The pockets were great and it was a very flattering cut. The material wasn't too heavy, which was great for the summer. The downside was the detailing on the back did not lie flat against the skin. It was minor but annoying.

It was a great dress for summer cocktails on the patio pre-wedding!
Size 10 was unavailable so I ordered the 8 and the 12. The 8 was too small and the 12 too large, but I wore the 12. It was loose in the chest but a good length and fine with the wise. Typically I wear a 36D for a bra if that helps people. I wore a halter style bra so the straps wouldn't peek through.

very fun
I own a very distinct Alexis Bittar necklace so I was very pleased that Rent the Runway offered her earrings. The hoops also looked good with my diamond stud earrings and my diamond tragus piercing. The earrings did leave a small stain on my ears, a black mark. Not sure what it was but it came off without a problem

Wonderful fit!
I was very pleased with the dress and the service from Rent the Runway (there was a problem with my backup size so they sent me two additional dresses at no charge!) It hugged my curves perfectly and accentuated my body. The cap sleeves were not constricting for my arms, which I had been worried about. The back was gorgeous. I wore a NuBra with it. You definately cannot wear a normal bra with this dress. The long was the perfect length with my 3.5inch heels The color of the dress is NAVY even if the picture makes it look black. I wore spanx with the dtess and almost felt like I could have gotten away with a size smaller. But it was nice being able to move in a formal dress without feeling like it was going to tear.
