Odd fit when buttoned
At least if you have any semblance of a chest :) cute open/ unbuttoned

Cool pattern- lots of compliments
As others mentioned, the neck was tighter than expected, but nothing that bothered me (and I wore for hours)

Pretty dress but a little uncomfortable!
The dress is pretty and great for a formal event- we were actually going to gala for Goddard Space Center so the stars were on theme :) However, as other comments mention- it's a bit itchy and uncomfortable. And for me it was pretty tight around the chest- I had to go braless but the straps don't give a lot of support.

Comfortable and confident in this dress!
This is a great LBD for a wedding- the interesting design on top gives it a little extra something. It runs true to size; the material is thick and stretches/gives without being clingy, so I was able to wear without spanx (I did wear a bra). I got a lot of compliments! It was comfortable and I was able to dance in it all night; the only downside was it fit a little weird in the hips (bunched), so I had to keep pulling it down.

Beautiful, unique, comfortable
I wore this dress to a black tie event and received a lot of compliments! Generally I wear plain black dresses to these types of events, so it was fun to try something different. Overall, the dress was true to size. I ordered the long since I am 5'9, and it worked well with heels (plus, with the cut of the dress, you can get away with varying lengths). It was comfortable too, and I didn't have any trouble sitting in it, even though the bottom is a bit puffy. The size 8 had definitely seen better days though- the top clasp was hanging by a thread and the zipper handle was flimsy. Plus, the dress came folded up in the RTR garment bag, so the bottom was wrinkled when I received it.
