So flattering!
So pretty! I'm 5'2", was wearing a 2.25'' heel, and the sash still dragged on the floor a bit for me, but I knotted it and it was perfect. The top was also a little big/loose on me, but I wore a strapless bra which better helped keep it in place because of the fabric-on-fabric. Overall though, a very flattering dress. I have two friends of different heights and body types who've worn it in the past, as well, and loved it. It may be too short for others but, as I'm short myself, it felt the perfect length, and I was able to dance in it all night without feeling self-conscious.

Didn't Wear
Beautiful color but, while it fit my bust and looked great up-top, the bottom half was somehow too big/loose and ultimately wasn't flattering.

Didn't Wear
Didn't end up wearing this one. It took frustratingly long to figure out how to untangle it, as well as how to get my body into it. Once I did get it on, the skirt was still loose (despite me pulling the drawstrings to their tightest) and fell on my body in an unflattering way.

CrazySexyCool (a la TLC)
This dress was all the things! It made me feel cool (those sleeves!) and sexy (cinched waist! backless!) I wore it a for a very small, intimate wedding, but would just as easily wear it again for a larger affair—it deserves more eyes! My only complaint is how it wrinkles at the hips (after sitting), but what can ya do. I consider myself a US 6 and the size 42 fit perfectly.

Ordered to wear on a weekend getaway for my birthday. Felt confident, sexy, cool, and unique.
Loveddd this dress! I ordered it to wear on a weekend getaway for my birthday. It certainly gave off a "punk" vibe, so I paired it with some Doc Martens. I put it on and immediately felt confident, sexy, cool, and unique. As mentioned in a few other reviews, it's definitely sheer so I wore a half-slip underneath. (I was personally comfortable wearing only a bra up-top, but if you're not, definitely get a full-slip!) I also wore a fanny pack that day which ended up acting like a belt. Rent this one!

Wore this to an "industry"-type party in LA during Grammy Weekend 2020.
Loved the "punk" look of this dress. Sleeves were a bit too exaggerated for my liking (that's just personal preference though), so I paired it with a leather jacket. Ruching was super flattering to the stomach, but was a little baggier down lower by the crotch. I couldn't tell if this was because the fit had loosened because I'd been dancing for a while in a packed (i.e. hot) area, or if it meant I should have ordered the Size 4. (Honestly though, I don't think I would've been able to zip a Size 4 up over me lol, and if I had been able to, it likely would've been too short/skimming my butt).
