Runs small, even for a fitted dress
Ordered the XXL (normally an XL) and it was too tight all over.

Beautiful dress, small on the top
Absolutely beautiful dress and very well made. Only complaint (and I should have noticed before ordering) is the bust is designed small. I'm a C cup and my breast were overflowing below the cup of the dress.

Lovely, but short
Absolutely beautiful dress, but at 5'8" it was incredibly short on me...like above my ankles. Also, a bit snug when I easily fit into other BM 14s. So I recommend ordering a back up size up one and going for long. It does have a nice fit in the skirt - not too much volume, but still light. If it fits, it's truly a lovely dress!

Perfect flare on the little black dress
Fits really well - not tight, but snug and not loose. Thick material is forgiving and ideal for winter. The cut out gives a fun detail with the cute flared skirt.

Classic and Perfect Size
Ordered this for vaca when I knew I would be walking a lot around town. It fits keys, phone, lipstick, and a small wallet. I did skip the wallet and just used the built in pocket for cash and cards. Strap is adjustable. There was a little wear on the logo and it was fading, but not enough to look badly.

Stunner!
I felt amazing in this dress!! I actually ordered this for my Christmas card photo and it couldn't have been more perfect! It hits all the right spots, accentuates the waist, then flares out a touch to hide any belly. Go for the tall if you plan on wearing heels. At 5' 8", my flats were barely covered. I genuinely did not want to send this dress back and have searched for it all over to purchase it!

Get the dang skirt!!!
This may be the best 'in between' skirt ever. You can dress it down or up...it works all ways! Not to mention, it's got a legit great twirl to it!! It's also very true to size. I'm a 14 and the XL was a perfect fit. Do yourself a favor and order it!!

Comfortable and classy
Absolutely loved this dress. I wore it day to night during an event - catered luncheon, walking tour, then a night out. Wore it with brown boots during the day and nude heels at night. It was perfect as a day to night dress! Sleeves were a little large, but not enough to bother.

Top is beautiful, but body is matronly
I felt the dress actually made me look larger than I am. And it's very matronly once on.

Runs very small
While it's a beautiful dress, it runs about two sizes small.

Very small
Cute, but so small I couldn't fit my iPhone 6 in it. Does have a chain on it, so has that option.

Perfect size earrings!
Great size-large enough to make a statement, but not overwhelming. Not heavy at all. I really debated on keeping them I loved them so much. I wore them to a 70's inspired gala.

Perfect fit with just enough glam!
This was such a fun dress to wear! It runs true to size and is fitted with a little stretch. I'm 5'8" and it hit just above my knees. The fabric is thicker, but not hot. I did wear a low back bodysuit under the dress just because it has a 'v' back and my regular bras showed just a bit. The color is more on the blue side than photos show, but I still got away with black heels. I did have some issue with the zipper coming down when I moved because there is no hook and eye, but I just had a friend stick a safety pin through the zipper and it kept it from moving down. Overall, it's a wonderful dress for a night out! It's beautiful and shows that it's a quality made dress.

Beautiful and Eye Catching
Beautiful and eye catching without being flashy. Runs small - little to no give in the dress. Also was a little short for my 5'8" height. Sequins scratch the arm a bit, but that's to be expected.

Perfect dress for a celebration!
Absolutely gorgeous dress!! A must rent!! I wore this for my 29th birthday for a night downtown. While it's all sequins, it's not as flashy as you would think. The fit runs true to size and the little ruching hides a little belly. Not the easiest dress to get out of since the sleeves are fitted, but not an issue enough not to get the dress.
