Red carpet dress
Awesome dress, beautiful heavy satin - this is perfect for gala events and red carpets, but probably too much "wow" factor for anything less formal. It runs small and has no stretch to the fabric, so I recommend a size larger than you normally wear. I'm pretty consistently between a 6 and an 8 and the 8 was way too tight around my hips.

Classic and elegant
This is a beautiful color and a really flattering style, but the fabric has no stretch to it, so you really need to be careful about the sizing. An 8L would have fit me better. Anyone over 5'9" definitely needs the long length. And I think this would work better for small-busted women.

Gorgeous
This dress is fantastic, particularly if you have a long waist. If you're over 5'9" or want to wear big heels, definitely get the long.

Great statement piece
I rented this with the Finders Keepers orange jacket. It's a great statement piece that makes otherwise boring clothes feel like an outfit.

hot color!
This is a great statement jacket: I work it 8 months pregnant with black pants and a black top and it was a fantastic and flattering outfit for work this winter. Got tons of compliments on the color. The only negative is that it is thick wool and very warm; it's more like outdoor coat material.

Hot mama
This is a great dress for a formal event if you are pregnant - I got a lot of compliments and felt great at 6 months. However, the dress runs small and REALLY short (like most in this brand). If you are over 5'7" or shorter but plan to wear high heels, you need to get a long. I went in sandals and it still looked a little silly it was so short.

Elegant
Really elegant dress, very flattering to curves. However: 1) it runs REALLY short. In bare feet, this barely hit my ankles. If you are anything over 5'5" and plan to wear heels you need to get the long; 2) you can't wear a bra with straps, which I found really annoying; 3) it's hot. Don't wear this anywhere remotely warm.

Glam!
I wore this when 4 months pregnant and felt like a million bucks! Definitely bump-friendly and bump-flattering. I was a little worried I would feel like a lounge singer all in gold sequins but no, it's not garish in person. Really recommend this dress; I'm planning to rent it again in a few weeks.

GREAT dress, especially for us tall girls.
This is a very forgiving dress; the heavy, sequined fabric does not cling to lumps and bumps and the contrasting colors are subtle and flattering. I received a lot of compliments. The long is truly long: at 5'11" with 2 inch heels, it was just skimming the floor and still had a real train behind me. I think this would look best on a B cup or less; the high neck line and slightly tight arm holes might not be flattering to a curvier figure.

GREAT for us flat chested girls
Wore this to a black tie wedding and received lots of compliments. This dress is going to flatter most women, but especially those of us with flat chests; the pleating of the fabric up top adds a little volume where we need it! The light chiffon skirt really moves when you walk and is very elegant and feminine. A nice light dress for hot weather.

Beautiful color
The beading and cut of the shoulders is like wearing shoulder pads so this is a great dress for someone who has thin shoulders and arms and a long neck, or someone with wide hips who wants to accentuate the shoulders and balance their shape. The fabric of this dress is heavy and flattering; it doesn't show bumps and lumps. The color is a deep plum color - not at all garish. If you are at all tall you NEED the long. A regular looked ridiculous on me even in bare feet.
