Super Cute
Loved this one, as other reviewers say it’s a bit to get on, definitely figure which way is which first, I will also say, the slit came up rather high, so something to be conscious of

Fun and Colorful
Fun dress with the cutout and a great color, I will say the arm was a little tight on my arm, so if you have a bigger arm, it might get a bit uncomfortable

Fun Fall Dress
Got as a backup option as my original pick was damaged, fit tts…loved it and felt great in it, I ended up with the regular length which was still quite long, I’m 5’7, but wore higher heels and it worked well. Dress has some give, and there was some support in the chest, but I opted to wear a strapless bra for extra support

Runs Big
I wish I would have listened to the other reviews, this ran so big, I sadly didn’t wear, but it was super pretty. I’m normally a 12, I think I could have sized down one or two sizes

Fun pop of color
This for tts, the straps on this were adjustable, so you can move that around if needed. I wore shape wear under, as I felt you could see my belly button without it. I loved the color of the dress! Great for a summer wedding

Coral Slip Dress

Super Fun Colors
This was a backup dress for a wedding I went to, it was a little tighter in the chest/rib cage area, but I'll blame the pandemic for that. It has a nice full skirt and pockets! Got tons of compliments on the dress!

Orange Floral Jess Dress
SALONI
Size Worn: 12
Usual Size: 12

Super Pretty
This definitely runs small, I sized up (although with the pandemic gain, I should have done another size up) I couldn't get this to zip. I normally have issues with side zips, but this wasn't even close! I will say, it felt like it would be a lot of boob, if you're well endowed and don't want to show them, I would avoid this dress

Didnt do anything for me
This just did not look good on me, the dress was lightweight and stretchy and fit, it just looked funny on, I think the ruffle and the one shoulder did me no favors, I ended up ordering a backup and wearing that instead

Flattering Fit with a Sexy Side
I got this dress as a backup for a wedding, I loved it. It was very flattering and the slit and the sheerness at the bottom made it pop. I received a ton of compliments on the dress! I got the 12r and 14r. I went with the 12r, it fit really well and is true to size. I was able to wear a strapless bra with it, but probably would have been fine going braless as there was some boning in the dress (I just prefer wearing a bra). I paired the dress with a bigger earring, as I thought a necklace took away from the dress a bit.

Size Worn: 12R

Flattering Fit
This was a replacement dress that was sent, as my original dress I selected was damaged. I didn't love as much as my original dress I selected, but it was more flattering than I thought it would be. It is rather low cut though, so either tape or pin together. I opted for a different dress for the event, but this could have worked.
Midnight Glamour Dress
Badgley Mischka
Size Worn: NONE
Usual Size: 12
Height: 5' 7"
Runs small
I got this as a backup dress, I usually avoid s/m/l dresses, and going forward I think I will again because I always have a hard time with fit. This dress did not zip, and normally I'm a 12. As others mentioned the slit was super high, I think if it did zip I would have been uncomfortable all night adjusting.
Modern Black Dress
Keepsake
Size Worn: NONE
Usual Size: 12

Fun pop of color
I loved this dress, the fit was great, I got tons of compliments on it. The front felt a bit short, but because the back was long it was fine. It didn't hike up while sitting either, which I was worried about. I ended up wearing a strapless bra that I had a converter strap to make it lower.
