Sparkly and fun!
Perfect dress for a night out in Vegas! Wish I got the xs since the small was a little loose around the middle, but I loved it!

This is a must-rent!!!
By far my favorite dress out of the many I've rented! It is as comfortable as it is gorgeous. You will not regret renting this one - I didn't want to return it! Wore it for my 30th birthday in Vegas. Wear a t-back bra and you won't see the straps!

Straps were a little annoying, but overall not bad. I wore a strapless bra. Really enjoyed this dress!

Unique, elegant, and sexy!
This dress was perfect for a late summer/early fall wedding in Chicago. It is thicker material, but the lace sleeves are a good balance for the between seasons. It does ride up a bit though, so i did have to pull it down from time to time. I loved this dress though and didn't want to send it back! Perfect combo of sexy and elegant!

Extremely flattering!
I loved this dress and wish I could've kept it. Gorgeous color - looks more navy in person and photographs more purple. Thicker fabric and a flattering cut - the slit made dancing easy. Wore with a strapless bra because I didn't have a convertible one that matched the neckline and slimmer straps without showing.

Unique and classy
Beautiful dress. Very flattering. The open back is sexy without being too much since the rest of the dress is more modest. Not sure how some other D-cup renters got away without a bra! I definitely didn't feel comfortable enough to do that, especially if I was going to be dancing at the wedding. I bought an $18 backless bra at Target and it worked great. The day of the wedding was extremely hot, and the dress doesn't breathe too well especially with being tighter around the knees, but the open back helped. Definitely better for a cooler day or an indoor venue. Overall I loved it though!

Beautiful color!
Overall I loved this dress. The fit and color were great, and it was structured well enough on top that I didn't need to wear a bra. Unfortunately I didn't get a picture without a sweater covering the top of the dress, but it was very flattering and would really show off toned shoulders and arms!

Head turner!
I wore this for my birthday at the casino with my boyfriend. Both the 2 and 4 fit very well - I went with the 4 to give more room for eating/drinking. This dress was gorgeous! If you're wearing a bra with straps, make sure it's one that has the convertible straps because otherwise they'll show. This dress is a head turner!

Really fun and classy dress!
Fit really well, a little bit of stretch. The lace was really elegant and beautifully designed. Only downside to it was that my bracelet sometimes would get caught, so don't wear one unless it's just a smooth bangle-type! It went to about my mid-thigh standing, but definitely do not bend over unless you want to give people a show! Overall I loved this dress!

Tough to return this one!
Outstanding dress! It was the backup dress that I requested when the sleeved version that I ordered was damaged by the previous wearer. Customer service was superb! I received this Friday night for a Saturday wedding. When I tried it on, my boyfriend said, "you're wearing that to dinner tonight!" So, I got to wear it twice and was complimented by strangers throughout both nights! The only downside to the dress is because it's a shift, the mid-section is a bit loose. Other than that, loved it!

Glamorous and fun!
Absolutely loved everything about this dress. I wore it to a bachelorette where the bride-to-be wanted us all to wear something sparkly, and I couldn't have picked a better dress! It fit like a glove, and didn't have that cheap look that a lot of sequin dresses can sometimes have. I was complimented all night and felt incredibly glam and classy. One of my photographer friends wants me to rent it again so he can get some shots of me in this one! Wish I could have kept it!

Gorgeous dress, beautiful fit!
As others said, the band across the waist is tight, but the dress is beautiful and fit great! I wore it to an engagement party and low-key backyard wedding which happened to be on the same day. It was dressy yet simple enough to be perfect for both. Tons of compliments!

Perfect dress for a Mailibu wedding!
This might be my favorite rental to date. Color was gorgeous and perfect for a summer outdoor wedding in Malibu. Fabric was really nice and had a little bit of stretch, which made it really flattering. The sleeves and neckline were beautiful. A+ rental!

Beautiful color!
I wore this to a California rehearsal dinner. Definitely a loose fit, which is to be expected of a shift dress, but the downside is that in some pictures it gave the appearance of having a belly. For that reason it wasn't one of my favorite rentals, but I did love the color and the fabric of the dress. It was comfortable and had plenty of room to eat! Size down for this one.

Head-turner!
Definitely was a tight fit. I wore the dress backwards (but eventually turned it around late in the night because I felt like my boobs were coming out while I was dancing)! The glittery threads added a really elegant touch and I got a ton of compliments.

Perfect for a country club wedding!
Loved this dress! I actually wore the looser-fitting size 4 to work the day before the wedding since it arrived early, and the tighter 2 to the wedding itself. It was perfect - classy, yet sexy. The dress came to just above my knees, would've liked it a little bit shorter, but was still able to keep a little sexiness with the "optional" cleavage! Was fitted in the ribs and looser in the hips for me. Great rental!

Stunning!
Definitely a snug-fitting dress, but very flattering! Tight enough that you really didn't need to wear a bra, but I did anyway (one of the convertible strap kinds to match the dress straps) for extra support.

Perfect fit!
This dress fit perfectly! Very comfortable and sexy at the same time. I am 5'5 and it hit a few inches above the knee, not quite as short as it is on the model. Loved it!

Classy and unique!
A bit longer than it looks on the model, but still a very pretty dress! Minimal stretch to the fabric, so not for those who are trying to hide any "body issues!" I loved it!

Constant Compliments!
Dress was gorgeous, I got complimented throughout the night by friends, strangers, venue staff, even the bride herself! I am 5'5 and wore 4" heels, the dress just barely dragged on the floor, but I was cautious about stepping on it throughout the night anyway. I took a risk on a strapless (usually it's tough to find a good fit with a larger bust and smaller waist/hips), but it fit much better than I was expecting and looks amazing in the photos! Returned the dress at the hotel front desk mail pickup, could not have been easier!
