Sparkly, sophisticated, and the perfect length
The dress was perfect for a black tie event. It fit comfortably. I’m 5’3” and the length was perfect for 2-3 inch heels. I wasn’t stepping on extra fabric all night.

Unique print and flattering silhouette
I wore this to a fundraising gala and received many compliments! The print and colors stood out among many black gowns. Size 2 fit me perfectly. The length was perfect - I wore 3-inch heels and it did not drag on the ground. Add some fun earrings and off you go!

Pretty colors but uncomfortably tight (even for a slim petite girl)
I wore this to a charity gala. I love the colors and sparkle of this dress. I have an hourglass figure and often wear sheath dresses so I thought this one would be great. I rented the XS and S and barely zipped the S. I'm 115 pounds and 5'3" but I felt huge in this super tight dress all night. You really have to suck in your stomach because it shows every bump and bulge no matter how minor. I have zero pictures from the event because I was so self conscious in this dress. I think it might work better for someone who is less curvy - maybe a very slim athletic build.

Elegant and feminine dress worn for a charity gala
The dress in a size 0 fit me very well. It's a lovely dress and I received a ton of compliments; however, the lace at the neckline and on the back was flopping around all night. I was very self-conscious about it. Do not rent this dress without double-sided tape (which I didn't have). The lace on the bodice of the dress did not lay well either and was all wrinkled. Aside from that, it's very feminine and flattering.

Nice party dress for a New Year's Eve Celebration
I received many compliments on this dress. The fabric is pretty and rich-looking. It's very sparkly which makes it perfect for New Year's Eve. It's a comfortable dress because of the conservative neckline and easy fit. The built-in slip is longer than the dress which I knew from other reviews so I used tape to temporarily hem the slip. Because of the cold weather, I wore black tights. The color of the dress is very dark navy so the black tights worked well.

A very sophisticated gown with unique details.
This dress was sent to me an a replacement for the dress I picked, which became unavailable at the last minute. When I saw the picture online, I was not impressed and not excited to wear it. But when it arrived, I loved the details that made the dress really special. There are three lacy panels on each side. The top two panels are sheer but the lower panel has nude colored fabric behind it. The unique shape of the top is very sexy but sophisticated. It is very low-cut in the front and because I'm an A-cup the fabric puckered out a bit and exposed more than I'm comfortable with so I was pretty self-conscious throughout the night. I would not recommend this dress for anyone with less than a B-cup unless you have a special bra or double sided tape to use (which I didn't).

I attended a black tie charity fundraiser in this dress. It was glamorous and sophisticated!
It's a beautiful dress! The 2R fit my body better than the 4R but the 2R was super short. Flats would have been my only option. So, I wore the 4R which didn't fit quite perfectly but the length was right for 4 inch heels. I was afraid the color wouldn't look great with my skin tone which is pale (especially in February) but the color looked fine. Overall, elegant and sparkly dress!
