Easy to wear! (Bring a lint roller)
Wore the size 10, and didn’t even try on the backup size 12. Great material and construction! Does NOT wrinkle— I sat in a car for over an hour and arrived to the wedding wrinkle free, but it picks up every piece of lint or pet hair so make sure you have a lint roller handy. Wore to a winter wedding, and loved the length and sleeves! I wore with a black strapless bra and some spanx shorts. Fabric is stretchy and fits a curvy body. I sometimes have issues with sleeves being too tight on my upper arms, but no issues with this dress! There is a slit centered in the back (does not go too high). It’s modest, classic, and beautiful… perfect to look and feel amazing at a wedding where you don’t know anyone and don’t want too much attention ;) I did have to continually lint roll and re-adjust the off-the-shoulder look when I visited the restroom, but overall a seriously great dress that I would love to have permanently in my closet!

It's a great deal if you plan to rent more than 2 dresses in a year. It makes renting super easy!!

Sexy dress that shows off all the curves!
I LOVED the color... I wore it for my bachelorette party and I stood out because almost everyone else was wearing black dresses. It's very snug, so watch the pantie lines! I wore the firmest spanx I could find, but the dress would ride up a bit so I had to continue to tug at it so my spanx wouldn't peak out. I had a bra that was almost the exact same pink (a victoria's secret very sexy bra) that worked perfect... there's no way I would have been able to wear it without some support. Overall, it was the perfect dress to rent because it's not very often that I am able to wear such a sexy dress with a plunging neckline and get away with it ;-)

Perfect rehearsal dress!
This dress was beautiful, I wore it for my wedding rehearsal. The lace fabric and materials were high quality, it is a well made dress. I am extra curvy, especially in the hips and this dress does NOT stretch at all. I have a very small waist so I had to accessorize with a belt so that it didn't look baggy in the middle. I tried on the 12L hoping it would fit better in the hips... it did, but then the waist was huge and the bust would fall down. I squeezed into the 10L with the help of extra supportive spanx. I wore the tallest shoes I own (over 4") and the length was perfect with a cute little train on the back.

Perfect Size!
I used this clutch for my rehearsal dinner. It was perfect for a few little things; iPhone 4, lipstick, gum, credit cards.
