Perfect fall wedding dress
I can't believe no one has reviewed this dress yet! It's a perfect dress for a fall wedding. The color is beautiful and the gold threading gives it a little bit of sparkle without being over the top. I felt like it ran true to size, but the fabric does have a bit of stretch, so it's very comfortable and easy to wear. I was able to wear a regular bra with it and the length makes it really easy to walk, dance, move, etc in without worrying about any wardrobe malfunctions. It would be perfect for holiday party season too and I would definitely rent it again!

Beautiful dress, unfortunately didn't work on me
I agree with the reviews that said it runs large. But only the top? I'm normally an 8 or 10 dress size, and the top of the 8 fit perfectly but the bottom of the 10 was a little too tight to move in comfortable. I LOVED the flow of the skirt, but it was just a weird fit overall on me.

Perfect holiday party dress
I got so many complements on this dress. It has just enough sparkle to be memorable and special without being over the top. I wore it for a pretty conservative company holiday party and it was perfect. I'm almost 5'7" and it hit right at my knees, and I LOVED that it has sleeves. They're loose and comfortable, so it's easy to move in (which isn't always the case for dresses with sleeves). Like others said, there isn't any give in the waist band, so I would size up if you aren't sure. I wore a backless, strapless bra, couldn't figure out any way to hide a normal strapless.

Gorgeous color and fun detail for a not TOO formal party dress
I absolutely love the color of this dress and the detail on the neckline is unique and shows a little skin without being over the top. I wore it for an after hours art museum party and it was the perfect mix of fun and not to formal for the event. The slip underneath is great for pictures (smoothing and flattering) but it was riding up all night and that wasn't so awesome for walking or dancing. Wouldn't rent again for that reason but I did love the look of this dress.
