Itchy!
Very itchy! Surprisingly so. Much larger than anticipated, even in the hips for me, which is unusual. The top was too too baggy.

great color, a little tight in arms
Great color, feminine detail, cut nicely in the waist, just tight in the arms and shoulders more than I would suspect for this size.

Perfectly professional and flattering
Professional, flattering fit, soft, high quality item. I wore to a conference and work, not too "loud", very classy. Even better in person than the pic

stand out gorgeous
Gorgeous earrings, matched multiple outfits, wore several times. Not heavy - barely noticed them - despite the size. Also worked well with mask on and off because they are rounded- didn't get snagged.

Classy pants!
Classy fit for work, cuffed leg works nicely with ballet flats and heels. The waist was a little loose which made the crotch dropped a little low, but ok with a long shirt

So sparkly!! Stretch was perfect.
Aside from the slight itchiness at armpit from sequins, the dress was spectacular. I’m 5’6”, 158lb, post-partum 36B. Had planned on a Large but Medium fit better on top. No need for a bra, hugged all the curves, stretchy enough to sit comfortably and dance in. I was told I was “stunning” several times. Absolutely loved this!!!! Would rent again.

Pear-shape perfect!
Fit perfectly, room in the hips and tighter in chest and waist in flattering manner, not too constrictive. Material was very high quality. Quite purple but very fun.

Even more beautiful in person- and so comfortable!!!
Was just the right amount of sparkle for a black tie optional event. Glad I got the long size, was almost too short with a high heel (I am only 5'6"). Very comfortable, not scratchy at all. Got compliments from the moment I stepped out of my car until I arrived home. Very forgiving stretch, nice thick fabric smooths things over. Did not wear a bra because of open back

So comfortable!!!!
Fit a little tight in the rib cage so went up a size, regular length was perfect for 5'6" in flat sandals. Beautiful color for outdoor summer wedding.

Beautiful green, simple classy dress
True to fit, a little shorter than I expected but still ok for a work event. Very simple, classy, but not a knockout

Comfortable and classy
Beautiful, elegant and very comfortable dress. Very tight fit but super stretchy, no need for spanx or a bra. It was shorter than I expected, should have ordered a "long", as it barely hit the top of my feet and was inches away from the floor with my heels. A bit tight in the arms, particularly at the armpit, but the lace is also stretchy

LBD with a touch of flair
Love this designer- hugs the curves but also comfortable because fabric is extremely stretchy/forgiving. The slit in front shows just the right amount, and little sleeves help slim the upper arm. This version in black doesn't have be ruffle of the same dress in red, which was a bit disappointing. Is a great choice if you are looking for comfortable, understated, and just a bit alluring.

Strap drama
Really loved the color and cut of this dress. However, as mentioned in literally every review, the straps are much too long and can't be secured in a creative way to lift them up. I felt like I had to shrug my shoulders to keep them on. The dress really features cleavage (great for a breastfeeding mom who *finally* has something to show off in that department!) but isn't for the faint of heart. I wish it was a bit shorter as well, definitely hit lower than mid calf. Tighter in the waist than expected as well- glad I didn't size down!

Great for a wedding- wish it was a bit tighter, especially because fabric was very comfortable, stretchy and forgiving

Accommodated the baby bump well
Really loved this dress, size large easily fit my 23wk baby belly, the top was a bit big though even for 34DD. The color is a very pleasant shade, not too orange. The sleeves are Very much like a cape...flattering if you need to hide your arms but kind of silly otherwise. Strap in back to cover bra was way too loose, like inches, had to wrap it around, could have used some pins...

For true to size, other reviews described it as short but since I am very short, it hit just above the knee. Beautiful dress.

Color of the dress was stunning!
Bodice was pretty tight, got uncomfortable by the end of the night but it looked great! Pockets are a plus, and the fabric of this dress is very thick, so you can actually put small things (lipstick) in pockets without drawing attention. Really flattering cut.

Amazing pattern, very comfortable, accents and accommodates a curvy shape
Large fit well- medium was a bit too tight in the arms and would ride up when walking. Got a compliment from nearly everyone at the event, pattern was very interesting and eye catching. It was a bit warm/insulating for heavy dancing... The fabric is very thick like a scuba suit.

Extremely flattering fit- sophisticated and sexy!
I am 5'6", 165lbs, normally wear size 4/6 top and 8/10 bottoms so dress shopping can be complicated. This fit like a glove, stretchy so accommodated the pear shape well, got a ton of compliments. It's much more high-impact in person than in photos. Wish I could own this one!!
