Way too baggy

I was really excited about this. What isn't pictured is that there is a slit on both sides that give this a very triangular look. It looked good from the back, but from the front it looked really bad - very boxy and unflattering. It was comfy, but I didn't wear it out.

Smaller than it appears

The bag is much smaller than it appears on the site. I thought it was a shoulder bag, but it barely fits under my arm. When received, it was all smashed up (no filling to keep shape). I didn't end up using it.

Great dress for any occasion

I wore this to a rehearsal dinner. It is more true to size than not but it tips a little on the small side. The zipper on my specific dress had a small hitch in it halfway up so I had to have help with zipping it. Overall this dress made me feel really skinny and I was very comfortable. The length was at the knees. My only complaint is that if you have muscular arms, the sleeves are very tight. My arms are just starting to show tone so it was fine for me until the end of the night, but if you have a good amount of definition in your arms the sleeves will feel uncomfortable after a while.

Very Pretty; a little on the formal side

I wore this dress to a brunch wedding with the ceremony outside. I picked it because I thought a little longer of a dress would keep me warm (December). I was a little on the formal side compared to other guests but my boyfriend was a groomsman wearing a full suit so that helped. I never had to adjust the dress and it fit right in all the right places. I am a 34b but didn't have room to wear a bra or any padding - this wasn't a problem because the dress actually gave me cleavage. To properly see the tea length, definitely wear heels. I ended up wearing my flats the whole time to try to dress it down. My only complaint is that the boning in the dress will get irritating after a little while but it is nothing that would stop me from renting again.

Rented for a formal event

Overall, I loved this dress and my boyfriend really liked the silhouette of the dress. I am 5'7" about 165 pounds and normally wear a size 8. I tried the 8 and even though it fit, I could barely breathe. I have a pretty small chest and was wearing pasties and it was still tight, so if you want to wear a bra or are larger chested, either size up or find another dress. I ended up wearing the 10 and it was still pretty tight. Because of the tightness up top, I wouldn't recommend wearing a bra otherwise you will see the outline of it. I felt 100% fine wearing pasties. The cutout on the side is somewhat unforgiving, but that could be because I wanted absolutely no skin coming out of it. If you have Spanx that match your skintone and go up over your ribs, you can easily wear that and no one will notice that the cutout is not skin. Overall, I did really like this dress - very pretty color!
