Pretty, but cut weirdly
I couldn't wear this because the top was cut so weirdly and it ended up gaping in the middle of the chest. This happened in both sizes that I received, and didn't seem to have anything to do with bust size. It's a shame because the colors and fabric were nice, but just didn't work.

Beautiful fabric and eye-catching back
This is a beautiful dress, the pattern is really interesting and has a lot of texture to it. The back is by far the best part, but unfortunately I didn't get a picture of that. I got several compliments on it throughout the night, people I didn't know came up to tell me they like it, so that's always a good sign. The top is pretty large in the bust area, and I attempted to pin it to close it a little, but it ended up coming out at some point in the night and it was fine. Didn't wear a bra, and it still looked good. Would definitely recommended it.

Nice variation on the little black dress
This dress was very flattering and comfortable. It was a more interesting version of a little black dress thanks to the lace top and shimmery bottom. I could have worn the 2, but it was much more comfortable in the bust in the 4. Overall a great dress!

Beautiful colors!
This dress was very pretty. The pattern is beautiful, and the material is very flowy and of a nice quality. The fit on top is a little loose, but it does have the elastic waistband so it's not too bad. The only drawback is that it is very see through. I had read mixed reviews so thought I would give it a shot, but it definitely is see through. I had to run out and buy a white camisole to wear with it, but had to crop it so that it looked right under the dress. The bottom is see through too, but it's not as noticeable. Definitely go with light undergarments, and probably a full slip is your best bet.

Great dress!
This was a really nice dress. The detailing is great, the lace panels and the pleating make it very flattering. Great if you want something a little longer, and it moved really nicely when dancing. Received several compliments.

Nice pop of color!
Received these as mystery bling. I wore them with a black dress so the green really stood out nicely. They were really pretty, and not too heavy. Only complaint was that they irritated my ears slightly, but I'm sensitive to that sort of thing.

Great back!
Wore this for a little black dress bachelorette party. The length was great, it's a little longer in the back than in the front. The front is really simple, but the lace panels on the side and the open back are a great touch. Did not wear a bra and it was fine, even dancing all night.

Nice color and length
This dress actually looked nicer in person than it does in the model photo. The color is great and it has pretty lace and detailing. The backup size for the dress I ordered was damaged so they sent this instead, and I ended up wearing this because the length was better for me. It was a little tight in the bust for me (I was being flattened a bit), but the rest fit nicely. I wore it to a mostly daytime bachelorette celebration, but it transitioned to night nicely.

Beautiful Earrings!
Received these as mystery bling for my rehearsal dinner dress, but I ended up wearing them for the main event because they were perfect for my purple bridesmaid dress and matched my gold shoes. They looked like they would be heavy, but they were very lightweight, and I had no problem dancing in them all night. I received loads of compliments on them!

Didn't fit!
This was a cute dress, I'm sure it would have worked on the right body type. The cutouts were larger than they appeared in the photos- they weren't as attractive in my opinion, but I think that the dress may have been a little stretched out. The 0 was too small for my chest- there was some definite side boob showing, while the 2 was just too large overall. Again, if it fit correctly I probably would have liked it, but it just didn't work on me.

Great flashy clutch!
This was great looking and a really nice size. I was able to fit my phone, several makeup items, and other essentials easily. A little tricky to close sometimes, but the beautiful gold color and bling made up for that!

Pretty, but didn't end up wearing these.
These had a little more silver showing than I expected, so they ended up appearing darker in person. They were still very nice though, but as others have pointed out the backs are hollow. I didn't end up wearing them because I found ones that were better suited for the dress I was wearing, but I would have worn them for another occasion.

Very pretty lace
This dress was very pretty. I wore it to a rehearsal dinner. The lace is a little more shiny looking in person than it is in pictures, but it's a nice, dressy look. You definitely should wear a strapless bra with it, it would show otherwise. The nude part under the lace is not attached at the top, only at the waist, so I found it necessary to use fashion tape at the top. The boning in the bodice made it so the dress didn't fit perfectly to my body, but it still looked great.

Fantastic skirt!
This dress was very cute. I got several compliments on it. It was a little tight on the top, but not so it was uncomfortable. The zipper also stuck which made it difficult to get on. The bottom of the dress was great, the tulle over the lace is really pretty and interesting. The sweater material on top makes it a little more casual, I wore it to an outdoor party, but it could be dressed up too. Overall really liked it.

Beautiful color and fit with just enough skin showing!
This dress was very cute, but definitely looks a little more casual in person because of the jersey under layer. You could dress it up or down depending on the accessories. The cutout in the back was a really nice touch, and the overall shape was very flattering. I did have some issues with my bra showing a little bit, but I just used some fashion tape and it was fine.
