Beautiful, comfortable dress
I typically wear a 12/14 on top and a 14/16 on bottom, but only received the 16 of this dress, as a backup for one I chose that was unavailable. It was beautifully cut and very comfortable, but the top ran extremely large. I can imagine it would be great for those with a larger chest, but I had to safety pin the sides in about 2 inches on either side. In the end, it worked well and was super fun to dance in. Would recommend to those whose bust/hip measurements are more proportionate than mine!

Gorgeous color, lots of compliments
A stand-out color without being too over-the-top. At 5'8", I could have used a 16L, but it wasn't available, and the 16R worked well enough. I'm a true pear shape, so the top fit a bit loose in order to get the hips to fit, but the fabric is substantial and stretchy enough that it molded to my body shape.

Great color and style
Loved this dress! I like showing my shoulder while hiding other areas, and this did just that. I wore if for a work party (I have a pretty laid-back office, but it might be a bit too short for others) with black peep-toe booties and got tons of compliments. My only complaint was that something seems to be off with the fit around the neck - if the back was centered, the neck got all bunched up. I had to keep fixing it all night. Not sure if it was just this particular dress or an issue with all of them. Would still recommend!

Fun and classy for a work gala
Fit a bit smaller than expected, but spanx did their job! The slit was quite high, but I was able to pin it. Sequins were scratchy, but that's to be expected. Overall a great rental for a formal event for work!

A fun wedding with family a friends.
This dress ran true to size, if not a little small. I typically wear a 14/16 and the 16W was just about right, but a little big up top. I ended up not wearing either one because in person it seemed to formal for my event.
