Comfortable, chic, and simple
This dress was great for an early Fall wedding when it was still pretty warm during the day. The color is beautiful and an attention getter for sure. The high neck is great for dancing so you don't have to worry too much about anything slipping down. With that being said, it did gape a little in the bust which I'm usually having the opposite problem (I'm a 34 DD). So if you are larger in the chest this dress could work great for you. The fabric is thick and has some stretch to it. It covers bumps and such well but I still wore Spanx underneath. Overall it was a great dress! Oh, and I am 5'6" and wore 2-inch heels and the length was perfect in the regular.

Great summer dress for a summer wedding
I loved wearing this dress and the color was great for summer tanned skin. The length was great and it was super comfortable. The only thing is that it shows sweat like no other! I wore it for a rehearsal dinner that was outside and even the smallest amount of moisture showed (I'm not a big sweater). Still a great dress and I would wear it again...maybe just for a cooler or indoor occasion ;)

Fun and classy dress for a spring or summer event
I wore this dress for a sorority event and it was such a pleasure to wear. I got so many compliments on how "classy" it was. It was very comfortable and I felt confident wearing it. The chest area was a little bit snug but it wasn't noticeable, so if you are a larger chested girl just beware. The material is great quality, pretty thick, so I wouldn't suggest it for an outdoor or very warm event. It comes with a slip under the skirt so no worries about it being transparent. I really enjoyed this dress and wish I didn't have to send it back! I highly recommend it!

Super cute and flattering for autumn time but too small
I rented this dress for a November wedding but sadly I wasn't able to wear it because it did not fit. The largest size the dress comes in is a 10 which is my size so I thought it would be perfect. If you have a bigger bust you might have a problem with this dress- I couldn't even get it zipped! I was so disappointed because it is a lovely dress and fit every where else perfectly. The color is a little different in person but still so beautiful.

Great Dress for a Sumer Event
I rented this dress for a friend's wedding in July. It was so pretty in person and perfect for dancing (didn't have to worry about it slipping around or anything.) I got so many compliments while wearing it too. It photographed very well and was a flattering fit. I would definitely recommend this dress but if you are a bit busty then try going up a size as it can be a snug fit.
