many compliments, loved the pop of color, needed a good steaming
Tall girl friendly! I liked this dress; however, not the most comfortable ever. It would've been too tight in the top if I had a larger chest and it was more of a drop waist than an a-line, which can be tricky for me with my hips. It wasn't a very cool fabric (90 degree day) and wrinkles easily - it needed lots of TLC right out of the bag and the bows do not untie, so it took extra time to steam them. I loved the bows at the shoulders - I'm a little self conscious about my arms but the bows were the perfect distraction. Overall, I felt very pretty and loved the pop of color; however, I probably wouldn't rent it again.

so. many. compliments! A totally showstopper, comfortable dress with vibrant colors!
Rent this dress! You will not be disappointed! I rented it for a wedding, and got compliments all night from wedding guests and strangers alike. I'd say the dress hits a bit lower on the waist than a classic A-line; however, it was still quite slimming and I didn't have to wear shapewear. I'm a sz 14 jeans, smaller chested and heavier in my hips and bum. I wore a 12 R. Tall girl friendly, too - win. The colors were lovely and so vibrant! If you have a bigger chest, it may be worth sizing up for your back-up.

Overall nice dress, but nude under-layer too short for 5'11''+
I rented this dress for an engagement photo session; however, the nude under-layer was too short. I am 5'11'' and the nude under layer made the dress unwearable for me. The dress is pretty, and would work well for someone who isn't as tall. My chest fit well (36B) and I wouldn't have had to wear a stick on bra. I liked it a lot besides the obvious.

Gorgeous dress with beautiful details, works for 5'11'' +
I wore this dress for our engagement photo session, and it photographed so well! The dress was comfortable and fit well for someone with hips. I normally wear a sz 10 dress, but I will say this was a bit big on top (I'm a 36B). If you have a small chest, possibly size down. It works well if you are tall - I'm 5'11'' and the 10L worked well with a 2.5'' heel! Overall, I loved this dress and would recommend it!!

I felt gorgeous and received SO many compliments!!
I really loved this dress, and I received compliments everywhere we went the night of the event!! It was comfortable, and didn't require me to wear Spanx or a bra. The top was tight but not uncomfortable. If my chest was any larger, the dress wouldn't have zipped. It absolutely required a thorough steaming when it arrived. I'm glad I didn't have to size up, because the sz 12 dress fabric was very worn. It didnt appear as bright or new as the sz 10. I paired the dress with nude strappy heals (2") and a clutch to match. Im tall and the length of the 10L was perfect. It was about an inch off the ground in my heals. I would absolutely rent this dress again!! I felt so beautiful!

This is a dress that really moves! So fun.
I liked this dress - it was fun, flirty and the print was lovely. I'm 5'11'' and the length was perfect with flat sandals. I wore a long necklace, stud earrings and carried a sand colored clutch. We walked around quite a bit - to dinner, to get drinks, etc. and I loved how this dress flowed. I got a lot of compliments. The cut outs, or "windows" as my boyfriend called them, weren't too revealing - I didn't feel uncomfortable. The cutouts were fun and flirty. I wish the dress would've cut a bit higher on the waist, due to my hips. But, overall, that might be my only complaint. I still felt very pretty. I'm happy I rented this dress for my birthday dinner.

I felt beautiful in this dress - so many compliments, comfortable, bright!
I loved this dress and didn't want to send it back! I would rent it again in a heartbeat! I normally wear dresses in a size 10, but wore the 12 for a few reasons...the 12 I received was new with tags, it was brighter and overall nicer than the 10. The 10 seemed kind of faded. The 12 also gave me a bit more room to dance in - It was bigger in the top with my smaller chest, and I ended up having to pull it up from time to time. Overall happy with the fit over my lower half. Beautiful material, perfect with nude colored accessories and light pink nails. So many compliments!
