Perfect party dress!
This is a stunner. Very classy and tons of personality. I wore this to a rehearsal dinner and after party, it was the perfect choice. I really considered buying it! The only critique is that the sequins can kind of stick together at times, but you're going to get that with sequins. Highly recommend!

Baggy but chic
I sized up since that is what was available at the time. It's a really chic blazer but it's meant to be baggy. If you're not careful you might look a bit sloppy so I'd recommend something underneath that is fitted, like a tucked in top or skinny jeans.

Great basic sweater
Baggy fit, a very basic sweater. Not a showstopper or anything but a great neutral piece you could wear with leggings, jeans, or slacks.

Pretty, comfy top
Really chic and easy to wear. I wore with jeans but you could easily wear nice pants. Fit well, no fuss!

So pretty, just not my style
The straps were a tad too long/stretchy and the boning had come out at parts of the bodice. I would have poked me all night. I felt like i would have been tugging and readjusting this dress constantly, so i went with something else.

Comfy sweater
This sweater is chic and comfy. The arms trumpet out at the wrist, which is a cool look but i found myself getting caught on stuff. I wore with high waisted jeans and it cut at the perfect spot on my waist. The colors looks a bit faded in person vs the vibrant photo online, but it was still a nice sweater.

A great alternative to the LBD
Based on the reviews I ordered a M (I'm typically a true size 4). This dress was so comfortable and super chic. Fabric was thick and flattering. Due to the way it's off the shoulder, you can't really raise your arms but it didn't bug me. Loved it!! I would absolutely rent this again!

Favorite rental so far
I wore this for a holiday party and loved it! IMO the mark of a great garment is feeling totally beautiful in it, then forgetting about it. It was so comfy, i never had to tug on it to readjust it. It wasn't form fitting or tight, but still wasn't matronly. I wore my everyday bra and undies with it, no need for anything special. With heels, the hem grazed the floor. I got a million compliments on it, several from folks i didn't even know who just loved the look. Couldn't recommend more!

Perfect fit, super flattering
This fit perfectly. It was a true wrap that looks like a dress in the front. the fact that they were actually shorts made me totally comfortable bc i knew the bottom wouldn't hike up or flash anyone with a gust of wind. Wore on vacation, brunch, etc. loved it!

The fit irritated me all day
Overall it's a pretty dress and I received a lot of compliments. It was too big up top and i was constantly having to pull it shut to not expose my bra. It dips down awkwardly in the front and just made me look matronly. I was so excited about this dress but the fit was just off.

Interesting top
Overall I liked wearing this--I would never have picked it out to purchase so it was cool to be able to wear it once and be done. It was a roomy fit, which I like, and I wore it over spanx faux leather leggings. I liked how it had a unique silhouette but gave it a 3 because it wasn't something I could see myself wanting to wear ever again.
