Needed a bit of fashion tape. PLEATS FOR DAYS!
Good color for a hard to match wedding where my date was the best man. I was thankful just to find something so last minute. I'm 5'2 and the dress came to right below my knees. Fabric is stiff but not uncomfortable. Back pleats had to be taped down with fashion tape to avoid looking like my but was way bigger than it is!

TOP RUNS LARGE, rest of dress is true to size
I wore this dress to a wedding rehearsal dinner. The color is a deep berry, and as other reviews had mentioned, THE TOP RUNS LARGE. I'm a C cup, and wore a bra from VS that adds two cup sizes (DD) and the fabric around my chest was STILL lose. I wore the smaller of my two sizes so I don't know if I would have fit into a smaller size any better. I received tons of compliments and I really loved the overall color and feel of the dress, but the top was a deal breaker for me.

Gorgeous but boxy!
The bag is a gorgeous golden color, that really pops against most other hues. It's large enough to it an iPhone 6 and f The clutch has a small chain that you can use to hold the bag if you want to if not the chain can be tucked in to create a clutch. However, The bag is the very large and has a square/boxy type shape. I would rent it again, but the shape made it a bit cumbersome at times.

Perfect fit
Great dress! It is fit through the hips, but is very forgiving for apple shaped girls! It photographs well, and everyone complimented me on it!! I rented the dress for a formal date night in Vegas! I LOVE this dress!

Made everything stay in place!!
These work great for keeping outfits in the right places all night. Long lasting, but you can not use the tape strips more than once. I will certainly be purchasing another pack with my next outfit. These are always great to have around to fix a hem or to keep a pesky strap in place!

HUGE EARINGS
These earnings are HUGE. I should have taken a photo, but I just couldn't wear them. They are probably about the size of your entire pinkie finger, and quite wide too. They are not pierced earrings. They are clip ons, and I was uncomfortable wearing them, as I felt that they would slip off when I was dancing. They are quite pretty, but just were too big for me. Also, the fear of losing something I was renting caused me not to wear them at all. I would rent these for a sit down dinner, when you are not dancing or moving around too much. Also, if you do not have pierced ears, and are used to wearing clip ons, then you would love these!

I loved the color! The green-black shimmer was amazing for photos!
I wore a 2x. I normally wear a size 16 jeans, or an XL top, so the dress does run small. One side on the bottom is fit to your leg, and the other side kind of flares out a bit. I found this to be odd, but I guess that is just how the dress is cut. Otherwise, the fit was great. It is NOT forgiving if you have a stomach, so just be aware of your body type. I felt that Spanx did not really help as it is such a body-hugging outfit. I wore it with nude heels, and I felt fantastic. It's a great dress for curvier girls.
