Lovely Dress
The size 6 fit perfectly and was so comfortable, I wore for Mother's Day church, brunch and shopping. The chest area runs a little small and was way too tight in the 4 for me so I was thankful to have two sizes to choose from and go with the 6. Bonus: the dress has pockets.

Perfect As Usual
I enjoyed wearing this dress so much, it was lower cut on me and showed plenty of cleavage. I wore it out to a birthday dinner party at a casual restaurant and it was perfect, bonus points for a great fit you can eat in. It would have been a little too low cut for me to wear to church. I can usually also rock a small in this brand but sized up this time and it worked.

Elegant & Timeless Dress
I wore this dress to a family wedding and it was lovely. I felt timeless and elegant and received many compliments. It was very easy to wear and I danced the night away without having to constantly adjust. I am usually a 4 but that size wasn't available, I went with the 6 and it totally worked on me and I didn't mind that it wasn't skin tight. The fabric has a good weight and nice drape on the body. It is a more conservative formal dress.

Lovely Dress
I wore this dress for my Realtor lifestyle photo shoot and "on camera" for a property video. I loved the spring colors and that the neckline was conservative, overall it looked good in the photos, but in person and on camera -- especially from the side, it didn't do me any favors . I'm giving it 4 stars for that reason -- lovely from head on -- but the fabric is on the lighter side and combined with the ruching, it kind of highlighted my not- so flat stomach (even wearing shape ware) from side angles.

Amazing Dress
I loved this dress so much! The fit was perfect and it was classy while still feeling eclectic and unique. I wore it for my Realtor lifestyle photo shoot and then out for date night. It was a hit all day! I wore shape wear underneath because it is a knit dress and while the fabric has a good weight to it, I still wanted every smoothed.

Elegant dress with beautiful details
I absolutely loved this dress, it was so classy, well made and perfect for my Realtor lifestyle shoot. Fabric has a good weight to it, but I definitely still wore shape wear as it is a knit dress so it does not disguise much especially in the midsection. Overall, easy to wear; I got loads of compliments on it.

Tricky Fit
I did not end up wearing this dress to the wedding I ordered it for. The fit was very uncomplimentary on me, and the M was tight but somehow still looked frumpy on me, its didn't fall right and the layers made me look bigger instead of having a slimming effect. I tend to have great luck with dresses with a sweetheart neckline and defined waste, but this dress has strange proportions and simply didn't look good on me. Fun to try but tricky fit, I would not just order this one dress for an event since the fit is so specific.

Beautiful feminine fit!
I absolutely loved this dress, it was so flattering around the waist and chest, the print was feminine and it was an easy dress to wear. So many compliments from friends.

Pretty but runs very small!!!
I really like this dress, but I was unable to wear it because it runs so small. I ordered a 4, I usually wear 2 or 4 depending on designer and it wasn't even close to fitting. Going to try a 6 but it may even need to be a 8.

Lovely Dress!!!!
I loved wearing this classic dress! I got so many compliments and felt like it was the perfect choice for a family wedding. I wore a regular strapless plunge bra with it and danced (and ate) the night away. It felt age and event (cousin's wedding) appropriate. I was in between sizes, the small zipped up but was WAY too tight for comfort. I wore the medium which had a little room in it, if I bought this dress I take it an inch in at the waist for more definition but the dress still looked so pretty and highlighted my figure as it is. The fabric was thick, elegant and forgiving. A great choice for any event! I highly recommend.

I loved this dress!!!! I wore this to a welcome BBQ for a wedding and I got so many compliments!
I usually wear a 4 so that is the only reason I'd say this dress runs slightly large as I wore the 2 and it was snug but fit. I could have easily worn one size up for a more laid back casual day look. Having the dress tighter made it dressier. Over all I loved the dress and got lots of compliments! It was perfect for a welcome BBQ for a wedding weekend and looked great with wedges and then barefoot. You can't wear a bra so I did pasties and was happy and comfortable. The dress holds you in somewhat in the chest area. All in all, easy to wear and so cute!

Absolutely LOVED this dress. Fit perfectly, was a dream to wear! So classy and fun!
I ordered a 2 (could not zip the 2 up) and a 4 and the 4 fit perfectly. The dress was snug and I did wear Spanx underneath. If your spanx match your skin tone you can't seem them in the little cutout details around the waste. I loved this dress, it was classy and so much fun to wear and dance in. It didn't wrinkle which is a huge plus for marathon wedding days and everything stayed in place on the rowdy dance floor. The dress does have a deep V neckline so if you aren't comfortable with showing some cleavage this may not be the dress for you. I loved wearing it!!!!!

Fresh easy dress to wear! Nice for a wedding because it is sturdy with straps, feminine in color.
Fits great around the bust, but is cut roomier in the body. You dont want it to be too tight anyway.
