Classic Power Suit Look
The dress is just a tad shorter than I was used to for business events but if standing only, it falls perfectly. Classic look that is comfortable and sophisticated.

Modern and Chic Twist on the LBD
Show stopper! A little tricky to get the top part of the dress on if you have your hair and makeup already done so plan accordingly. The 0 fit me however the 2 was more comfortable in the sleeves. I also could have gone for the longer version of this dress versus the regular but not available. Definitely stood out at the gala I wore this to.

Drawn to the color and interesting neck detail.
Length was shorter than I felt comfortable wearing for work. When sitting it rode up. Color was nice.

Old Hollywood glam that never will go out of style.
Very flattering for most body types. Quality silky fabric that flows beautifully on the body. Color is rich and the lace detailing is is what you would expect for the retail price of this dress ($$$).

Classy. Gorgeous color. Comfortable. Has pockets.
Felt very elegant in this dress and was a perfect look for a formal gala I was attending. I am 5'7 and the regular worked for me with shorter heels. The dress has some flecks of sparkle in it. Subtle and not overwhelming. Very happy with my selection.

Perfect blend of class and elegance!
Understated and subtle, this dress made a big impression at the gala! Material of dress has a slight sheen which made the effect of the dress even more stunning underneath the light. The detail of the back did not show too much skin and was perfect for a a classy event.

Perfect shade of gold. Vintage glam style!
Wore this for a family and wedding party dinner two nights before my wedding. Received many compliments. Subtle sexiness and old hollywood glam! The strings for the back were a little tight so I imagine someone with a bigger chest may find it really uncomfortable.

Sequins Stunner!
Fun and form fitting, the sequins, color, and sexy back of this dress says you have arrived when you walk into the party! Badgley & Mischka knew exactly what they were doing when they designed this dress. Photographs very well.

Sophisticated with Sex Appeal
This dress is made of clingy fabric so beware of undergarments that bunch or ripple. I liked the length of dress and color, however, the belt did not come with the order. That would have made a big difference since the black fabric in the middle bunches together and did not really flatter my long torso without it. I ordered this dress to arrive at my hotel while on a business trip and didn't notice the belt was missing until right before my work dinner and presentation.

Elegance with a bit of sexy. Modern Jackie-Oish style
I choose to go with a size 42 (next size up) after reading other reviews about how this dress tended to fit snugly with little give. That was smart. The dress hit me at just the right length and is very classy. This was worn to a medical society dinner so conservative was key, however, I didn't want to bore either. The lace, velvet detailing, and cut-out bodice are all details that keep this dress from looking like a funeral frock. Would definitely rent this little number again!

Perfect touch to a glam affair!
These earrings are larger than what I usually wear but were not heavy. The blue is very brilliant and sparkly. The only minor issue I had was that they occasionally got snagged on the lace of my dress at the shoulders. May just be a problem for those with ear lobe to shoulder ratio like mine. ;)

Elegant and Classy yet Comfortable
This was actually my backup dress when my 1st choice was not available due to wear/tear damage. Customer service was very friendly and helpful in selecting another option. This dress's vibrant color and detail in the back is what got it the most compliments at the function. Very feminine and form-fitting but still breathable and movable. I am 5"6 1/2 so not necessarily tall but felt this dress's length was just right with 3-inch heels. I had a very good experience for my 1st time renting.
