A little disappointed...
After reading a few reviews I was super pumped to get this dress along with a cute bracelet to match. Upon opening my bag I realized this dress had more gold tones then silver and the bracelet I ordered was silver. I basically wasted the money on the bracelet cause I couldn't wear it. IMO I'd size down on this dress as well. Since having my second child 2 years ago I'm normally a 6/8 in dresses. I totally could have worn a 4. The lace on the top was so stretched out at the end of the night on the 6 that my husband had to keep fixing the back to not show my bra. Which by the way, bonus for this dress, you can totally wear a normal bra!

Great fit!
Awesome fit! The length, the bust, just everything about this dress was great. I was comfortable in it the whole night - sometimes dresses get a little tight after dinner, ha! I ordered a size 4 and 6, ended up wearing the 4. Also, as other reviews stated the slip ran a little large, but when my dress arrived there was only 1 slip anyway, which fit perfectly. I wore this dress along with nude pumps, but black would have looked great as well. I was going to add a belt like others, but decided against it because the dress really didn't need anything else.

Great fit for a post baby body!
I wore this dress to to a wedding in Florida. I was still nursing my 10 month old daughter. It fit great and was comfortable too. Everything was easily accessible (if you know what I mean!). There were no zippers in a difficult spot, etc. so that I could pump in the car with ease.

Great for a post baby body!
My underarms were beat up after wearing this dress. The reviews I read are right on! This dress is awesome for a post baby body, I even got to size down and wear a nursing bra, BUT my underarms were so red and beat up afterwards from the sequins. Also, if you are nursing or need to pump in this dress it's really not feasible. There is only a side zipper, which I just dealt with because the dress fit so good. I was contemplating adding tights under this dress, but the weather warmed up a little. It would totally look cute with them though!

Perfect amount of sparkle!
This necklace was perfect with the LBD I ordered. The tie is a little long, but I just tucked it into my dress. I almost contemplated wearing this as a belt!

Just perfect!
Wore this to my work Christmas party and got so many compliments. The necklace I rented also was great for a little extra sparkle. I ordered the 6&8 based off reviews thinking I would need the larger size, and ended up wearing the smaller size. It wasn't too tight in the arms or chest either. It literally fit like it was made for me. So comfy throughout the whole night too. I wish it had pockets, but a girl can dream.

Beautiful dress for a summer baptism!
I just delivered my daughter 2 months ago so I was very nervous on sizing. After reading a ton of reviews I chose to order the size 4 and 6. I didn't even try the 4 on once I received the dresses. The 6 fit perfectly...almost everywhere! I kind of wish I would have ordered the 6 and 8 though. The 6 was a little small in the bust area. But the length and everything else was great. I could tell this dress has been ordered and worn a lot. The lace was snagged in a few places and worn down. Nevertheless, this dress was a hit! I received a ton of compliments. My grandma told me I should have bought it!

This dress is perfect for a fall wedding!
I normally wear a 0 - 2 from White House Black Market, and a 4 - 6 from other stores. I was nervous about what size to get, but went off other reviews based closely on my height and weight and ordered the 2 and back up 4. I could have went with a 0 the night of, but that may have been too tight after dinner. So I went with the 2. This dress was so perfect for a fall wedding. I wish I owned it! I was debating on wearing tights, but it looked so cute with them. I also ordered the ombre earrings that others have suggested and they are so heavy you could literally see my lobes being pulled down by the weight. Luckily I had other earrings that looked just as cute. I would definitely rent this dress again. No issues with the condition, etc.
