Great dress for tall women

I rented this dress as a backup option for a wedding. I didn't end up wearing it because the sleeves were comically long on me, even for being pretty tall. My sister in law also attended the wedding and did end up wearing this dress, which looked great. While it does run large, it's a wrap dress so it can be tailored to some extent by tying it tighter. I rented a large due to being 6 months pregnant but if you're on the "smaller bump" side of things I would recommend renting your normal size!

Flattering & bump friendly!

I rented this dress 1 size up from my normal size (4/6) to account for being 6 months pregnant. This dress is very comfortable, hits at a great length for a wedding or work and has pockets which is always nice. I would definitely rent this dress again!

Great bump-friendly dress but very low cut!

I loved this dress and got so many compliments on it! I'm 6 months along but not showing an extreme amount so not large enough for maternity dresses as of yet. This dress was very comfortable and accommodating to my new shape. It was very low cut, but was easily managed with some fashion tape and a sticky bra. I loved the fact it had pockets and was extremely comfortable. Would absolutely recommend and rent this dress again. I did size up 1 size to account for the bump, so if mommas-to-be are looking I would recommend ordering your normal size and 1 size up as the backup.

Great dress for formal event!

This dress is amazing but not for the faint of heart. The front slit came to about mid thigh for me and I'm 5'9, so definitely recommend having a pashmina for covering up when seated. I went based on other reviews and sized up. I'm typically a 4 or 6, depending on the brand, but got the 8 in this dress and was very happy. Tall ladies - the 8L was long everywhere, not just the hem in my experience. I felt the top was baggy and ultimately went with the 8R even though it was short with heels. I tried fashion tape and wanted the 8L to work but didn't want to risk it! I found this dress was compatible with a "sticky bra" with no issues. Received tons of compliments and felt great in it all night!

Fun but simple black dress

I rented this dress for my company Holiday party and really loved it! I was worried the cut outs would feel a little too revealing but it was still a super tasteful and fun dress. I ordered the regular and long length and ended up going with the long length. I felt the dress ran pretty true to size. I would definitely rent this again!

Comfortable, flattering black tie option!

I rented this dress for a black tie optional wedding because I wasn't sure how many guests would do full length since it was "optional." I liked that it was still formal and sophisticated but playful with the open back. The fabric was very thick and flattering, but I did follow the suggestions of other reviews and sized up. I'm usually a 4/6 so I ordered a 6 & 8. The 8 fit like a glove so didn't even try on the 6. Would definitely recommend and rent this again!

Size up!

Rented this for a June cocktail attire wedding. Per all of the other reviews, I knew I had to size up. Unfortunately, my size up was not available. I thought since everyone recommended it sizing up even 2 sizes, that I could to that and be fine. That was not the case for me. My normal size was a little to tight for my taste and the 2nd size up was way too big. I still really liked everything else about the dress and would definitely rent again in one size up than my normal size! The fabric is great, the color is fun and it's a super cute dress.

Fun dress, weird sizing

I rented this dress as a backup for a summer cocktail attire wedding. I really liked it, but for someone with a not super large chest it wasn't a great fit. The "halter" style neck is actually a strap with only one clasp, which I wasn't expecting. Ultimately I didn't end up wearing the dress because the back of the dress was gaping based on how loose the neck strap was. It's a beautiful dress, the fabric is great and I tried to make it work with different bras but nothing quite worked. It would have been a lot better if there were multiple clasps so there is more sizing than a "one size fits all" approach.

Size up for wedding appropriate fit

I really liked this dress and followed what I thought was the best sizing based on reviews but didn't end up wearing the dress. The dress is very form fitting! I rented a size up and it still was just a little too "clubby" for a cocktail attire wedding. I would suggest renting a size up as the back up and maybe even a 2x size up if you want to feel a little more comfortable in a wedding like environment. I would definitely rent this dress for a bachelorette or a general cocktail party again!

Feels like a million bucks

I loved loved loved this dress - and unfortunately the party I rented it for was canceled due to an unexpected snow storm in Atlanta! As the other reviews say, it does run *very* small due to the European sizing. I'm typically a 6 and ordered a 10L. If you're over 5'7 I would try to go for a long - I'm 5'8 and could still see my shoes. What's hard to see about this dress is that it has a slit in the back which makes it even more fun and dressy. The fabric is great - you'll definitely need a lot of fashion tape but I wasn't concerned about that as I'm fairly small chested. Will definitely rent this dress again!

Looks very different in person!

Truly one of the most unpleasant colors I've ever seen. I rented this as a back up dress for a masquerade themed cocktail party but it was so unattractive that I immediately sent it back. I wanted to like it, but I couldn't bring myself to! May work better on someone with a more olive or darker skin tone. I'm more fair and this was in the winter so it didn't work for me at all!

Fun floral dress for spring wedding!

At first I was a little hesitant about renting this dress for a wedding given the white background, but I was assured by several others that the floral pattern would be large enough to offset any concern (also - it's more of a respect thing, everyone's attention is on the bride no matter what!) I rented a medium and a large after reading reviews that this ran small, but I would say it was more true to size than what I expected. I'm 5'8 and wore heels, it wasn't too short but if I were over 5'8 I would probably rent something else and not risk it. It was a very comfortable dress, easy to dance in and I received several compliments on it throughout the night!

Great dress for fall wedding

Per the other reviews, I ordered a size up. While some people felt the sleeves were too tight, I thought they were great and it was helpful that they weren't riding up every time I had a drink or while dancing. It did feel a hair short (I'm 5'9) but I wore kitten heels so it wasn't too bad. Overall it was very comfortable and I received a lot of compliments! Easy to dress up or down.

Very comfortable and flattering dress

I ordered a size 6 and 4, based on the other reviews - the dress definitely ran on the large side so I would suggest ordering a size down from your typical size. It was a little shorter than I would have preferred (I'm 5'9) but ultimately it was fine. The dress was really comfortable -- a few other reviews mentioned the sleeves were too tight, I did not find that was the case but I did feel the zipper on the sleeve was a little awkward. This dress could work for a lot of events (I chose it for my husband's company holiday party) but could definitely fit any cocktail attire event. Easy to dress up or down.

Fun dress for a fall wedding/party

Dress ran a little small, so if you're on the fence consider sizing up. Requires "sticky bra" or none at all. I wore this to a cocktail attire wedding and got a lot of compliments!
