Close runner up
I had 2 styles for an outdoor wedding and this one wasn’t chosen but it was a close one. I loved the way this one looked, except the side zipper kinda bumped out weirdly. Maybe I needed a size 14 instead but otherwise it fit great. I would say that it definitely shows a lot so shapewear might be a good choice if that’s something you’re concerned about

Magic strapless dress
I’ve never gotten so many compliments. I gave a reading at my brother’s outdoor wedding and so had a bit of attention on me and wow, so so many people made a point to come tell me how much they loved the dress. The belt looking band is solid, not stretchy and that gives the top a solid base to hold from. Then there’s a non-stretch material under the ruffled layer with silicon beading on the top edge so this dress did not move. I fidgeted a little out of habit but really didn’t need to. I got size 12 and 14 and thought I would need the bigger size, but day of I decided to try the 12 again. Had to struggle a little with the side zipper but once it was up it fit like a gem. Only note I would add is if you try it and the top seems baggy in the outer layer, pull the waist belt part down a bit. That adjustment helped the fabric stay more vertical and flat looking instead of saggy.

Flattering fabric, but straps are so annoying
I got plenty of compliments on the dress, but I felt so insecure in the top straps the whole night. Maybe it's because I'm broader in the shoulders, but even fully tightened, the straps kept moving throughout the night.

Runs small
Great material for support, but there is 0 give and the style runs small so I couldn't wear it to my event.

Beautiful,classic cocktail dress
I love that this is more of a crochet than a true lace, it made it feel a bit more casual than stuffy. I wear either a 6 or 8 and while both fit the 8 was more comfortable. Its a bit hard to get the top on, got caught in the straps a bit. But once its on it fit great. Definitely need to go braless or use a backless bra. Im 5'10" and it came about mid thigh/close to my knees

Great dress, beautiful color!
I didn't end up wearing this one because it was my back up dress, but it was really beautiful. Its runs kinda large through the body, I was a little disappointed because it was gorgeous except the waist didn't really exist. More of a shift dress than anything fitted.

I got so many compliments because of this dress! Boosted my confidence a ton!
The whole dress is a little tight. I wouldn't say it runs small as I am a true size 6 and this fit me perfectly, but its a tight perfect. I'm 5'10 and it was a little short but the tulle at the bottom fills it out so I wasn't too worried about it. The tulle is so soft, not itchy at all. The sleeves are also pretty tight but stretch a bit once its been on. I wish I had bought this dress instead as it is so beautiful and flattering!

Literally had people admirably staring at me throughout the event. Made me feel so confident!
Didn't realize that the whole dress was lace, which I don't usually like but it was gorgeous. I usually wear a 6 and it was close fitting but not overly tight. Built in slip + lace meant that I didn't need to suck anything in
