Loved the fun colors/style of this dress. Size 8 fit perfectly, though was slightly big from waist down (not enough to say it runs large) - though this is part of the style (fit/flare) of the dress. Most importantly, did not have to hike it up all night - actually came up far enough to be pretty decent and breathable. One thing to note is that it's not a satin/shiny material -it's more cotton, making it slightly more casual than expected. But it ended up fitting right in for the occasion. Orange is also slightly more muted in tone than it shows online. Overall, very flattering and easy to wear.

Loved the fit and style of this dress - wore it to a summer black tie affair and it fit in perfectly. It is a gauzy material, making it lightweight - however, it also shows every bump, so ended up wearing a smoother. The outer layer that wraps around and cuts diagonally is slightly more forgiving. Fits tightly on the rib cage (good feature given that you're not supposed to wear a bra with it), but true to size everywhere else. Due to my chest size (large C/small D), I had to wear a strapless with it, which worked fine, but wish the cups of the dress had been a slightly better fit. I had to pin it to the bra to make sure it didnt go down too low in the middle. I had ~5 inch heels and it just skimmed the ground. Overall, definitely the best fitting dress for a formal occasion that I tried. The cut of the top and the straps in the back make for a very sexy look without going overboard, the color is deeply saturated. Felt beautiful in it.

It was a great piece, but a little too bling-y for what I had in mind for the occasion. I didnt end up wearing it
