Elegant, easy & eye-catching
I loved this dress for a July wedding in Malibu Canyon. THE FIT: The XS fit, but I sized up to the S because I felt like the neckline looked better if it kind of "hung" on you, would recommend that! As others have said this dress is LONG! I'm 5'4" and wore giant platform heels and it was fine for standing but doing stairs or dancing I would hold the train up a little. I would not rent if you are under 5'3" / 5'4" and aren't ready to wear BIG heels. THE FABRIC & COLOR: The fabric was such a beautiful color- I was nervous I would be too bright but it's that perfect middle ground. The fabric wrinkles very easy, so make sure you steam it before you wear it / pack a steamer if you're traveling with it.

Chic & fun!
I wore this for my birthday dinner with my husband, since I feel like I can never rent something white for weddings! I felt like the bodice / waist fit true to size, and is probably cut for someone with a shorter torso like me. I usually don't get so lucky, and long waisted bodices end up bunching up on me. I have pretty long legs for my height (5'4") and there was still a few inches on the pant in the Regular length, so I just wore some cute platforms. The bust area was very small, and the cups had a bit of an awkward hem causing a slight point. I'm between a large B and small C and you couldn't really fit more in there that that- I even went bra-less. It worked out fine for me, but if you are a bit more busty- might not be the right cut for you. The peplum-esque flap was really flattering in an area that some jumpsuits can look awkward, so I loved that detail. The fabric was really nice quality, thick and lined all the way to the ankle. The only downside of the white fabric was that you can tell it's been dry cleaned a lot as the white was no longer a bright white, and had a bit of dullness. It kind of a particular cut- but if it works on you it's a really fun jumpsuit!!

Gorgeous fabric & tailoring!
I rented this for a Palm Springs wedding (so perfect), and was lucky enough to get a brand new dress (!). Size wise this dress runs true to size, however it is made for someone more long-waisted. I'm short-waisted, and all leg, so the waistband of this dress hit me at my natural waist, causing the bodice to bunch in the middle & shoulders. Not going to wear for the wedding, but I really wish I could... in love with everything else about it.

Great style lines & material!
This was a perfect dress for a fall black tie wedding! I wore the Regular length with 4" heels and it looked perfect (the back was a bit longer, so I didn't have to pick it up when walking on the lawn, etc)- I'm 5'3"-5'4". The size 2R and size 4R fit about the same in the bodice, but I went with the 2R because it seemed to seem like less fabric and therefore more flattering in the midsection. I was able to wear this with pasties/petals only and no bra. Like others have mentioned, the beaded lace can be a bit scratchy around the armpit... but it didn't bug me that much.

This dress was easy, comfortable and a beautiful color!
I usually wear a 4, but went with the 2 since I have a shorter torso that the 2 fit a lot better. The stretch of the fabric made this very easy to do! I have a large B / small C bust and since the material was thicker & tight, I was able to go without a bra... it was great! The length of the dress was perfect for my height and the skirt flared out just how the picture shows. Received tons of compliments on the fit & color... people also mentioned the fabric looked 3D... would love to own this dress.

Easy, festive dress!
I rented this dress for a holiday party, and it was a hit! I am 5'4", 120 lbs and am usually a 4, so this was pretty true to size (I wore the 4). I always get a 4 & 6 just in case, but as with other dresses of a similar cut, the 4 fit best but is rather short (and I'm not very tall). The 6 was a bit longer, but I was swimming in the bodice. For the season, black tights looked great- which helped with the dress length. The material was a little darker than I thought (more black coming through than gold), but when the light caught the gold it was beautiful. The material had some stretch so it was very comfortable & easy to wear! I did take one star off for the sleeves... I thought they would be more of a 3/4 sleeve so I kept pushing them up, but they would just slide right back down. All in all, I loved this dress!!

Sparkly & fun
These earrings were the perfect statement on my wedding day! I wanted to do a bare chest & large earrings and these were great. They were a bit heavy, but I adjusted quickly.

Fun & funky
I didn't want to wear the typical jewelry for my wedding... these bangles were really fun! I even gave a band to each of my 3 bridesmaids. The only down side was they weren't a yellow gold in person. Mine were a rose gold, maybe mislabeled? I was bummed because it didn't totally match the yellow gold earrings I choose, but my engagement & wedding band is rose gold so it worked out.
