I wore this dress for my company's holiday party. Overall I loved the dress and was so sad to send it back! The colors are amazing in person and it photographs really well. I received compliments on it all night! It was a little snug in the 8 (I'm usually between an 8 & 10, depending on brand), a 10 might have been better, but it was unavailable. I was a little worried about it being too short, but it was the perfect length while standing. It was a smidge short while sitting, but luckily I could use my dinner napkin to cover up. The sequins were a little scratchy at times, but it wasn't bad at all, mostly if I dropped my arm in a weird way. I wore the Gerard Yosca Delicate Azure Drop Earings with this, which were the perfect colors to pull out the blue and golds in the dress. I would definitely rent this one again!

I wore this dress to a charity black-tie event and it was the perfect dress for me! It does run small - I originally had the 10L (my normal dress size is between an 8 and 10) which was really tight. I called and they didn't have the 12L, but they did have the 14L. First - the 10L was barely long enough wearing flats (I'm 5'7"). The 14L was a little loose, but overall, it fit better and I was comfortable and didn't need any shape wear. I was able to wear heels (about 3.75") and it was just the right length. The built in bra was fantastic. It is fitted through the hip, which was great for me. I loved the small train on it too, but I imagine some might find it irritating. I would definitely rent this dress again! Sorry about the blurry/dark pictures - no one there that night could figure out how to take a decent picture...

I wore this to an indoor wedding where the bride's family was more conservative and it was the perfect dress for the event. I'm 5'7" and have long legs with a short torso, and the length was pretty good. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars was that because of my short torso, the waist line hit me in a weird place. I am between size 8 and 10, and while the 8 fit, the 10 was more comfortable. Loved the pockets for my phone and lip glass (becoming a standard for any dress I wear to weddings) and loved the color. It was comfortable to sit, eat, drink and dance in all night long. The fabric was a good weight, not too heavy or hot and not too thin as to lose shape and structure. Overall, I really liked the dress.

I wore this dress to a wedding outside in San Diego in October. I loved this dress so much, I wanted to keep it! Fair Warning: the lining is THICK!! So I would not recommend this for any outdoor event when you know it will be warm. I tend to be between size 8 and 10. While the 8 fit, the 10 fit better, but it is pretty true to size. It fit like a glove through the bust and the waist and flared out at just the right spot. The pockets were super helpful, too. Sleeves were a tiny bit tight, but nothing uncomfortable. It was a great dress to dance in and I received complements on it all night long. Would definitely rent again.
