Fun
The fit was great but didn't have much room on top with a supportive bra.

Button gap
If you're between sizes, go up. The dress felt great but the buttons gapped (even worse when I was walking). Didn't wear it.

Buttons in armpits!
The dress fit great and felt awesome. The buttons, however, are attached in a way that they awkwardly drooped down into my armpits.

The cold shoulder holes fell in a weird area

Size down
I'm between S and M so rented the M because I didn't want this to be super tight. Should've picked the S.

Fabric is lovely and fit nicely in the front but what's with the baggy back?

Too big
Runs large and has no shape. Didn't do anything for me. Didn't wear.

Huge
I'm usually a 4/6 and got the Small but it was too big to wear out. Also, the bow on the back was sewn in at strange places and caused the fabric to flip over.

Huge
Size down. I'm usually a 4-6 so I rented the 4 and it was very large. I'm right at the edge of petite and the arms were a couple inches too long. Just too loose to look professional. Looked like I was a kid trying on mom's coat.

Wedding dress
Got married in this! Tiny little ceremony with family. Dress has no stretch so size up if you're worried.

Almost perfect!
Rented this for a holiday party. The color is lovely and the dress was floorlength with 4" heels. I wasn't crazy about the sleeve length though - thought they emphasized my upper arms.

Playful neckline!
The neckline of this is such a cool feature. However, it has to fit perfectly! I sized up to fit the girls in, but it's such a lovely heavy material and there's a lot of dress because it's floor length. I was constantly pulling it up so it didn't tug on my neck. Overall, a gorgeous dress. Would definitely rent again.

Too frumpy
I got this for an outdoor wedding. I wanted to love it because it was comfy, but wasn't crazy about the ruffles. It was super loose - than goodness for the belt.

Great colors!
Loved the mixed use of plastics and wood. Perfect size for the phone, wallet, and a couple necessities. Wood was a bit loose and seemed like it might fall off eventually.

Very structured
The color of this dress is a striking royal blue. There was no stretch, but it was great for keeping everything in. Lovely material.

Hugs the curves nicely
This dress was floorlength on me with 4" heels. It certainly hugged the curves on my frame. I'm a bit top heavy and the 4 was a bit tight around the girls, so I wore my backup 6 which was a bit loose in the waist (although that means I wasn't restricted when sitting down). All in all, a lovely dress - heavy material and beautiful color.

Back hangs beautifully
Loved this dress! It hung beautifully and hit the floor at the perfect spot in four inch heels. A bit scratchy on my bare arms but worth it!
