Flattering and fun

I loved this dress. The space print and the dramatic skirt create a lot of visual interest. The front of the dress is rather short, but the fabric is nice and heavy and stayed put, so I was never in danger of overexposure. The top is cut rather small and has no give, so even though the 6 fit me through the waist, I had to size up just so I didn't look oddly smashed into the top. It didn't matter though - the larger size was still very flattering. I heartily recommend this one!

Small, basic clutch for a dressy affair

This was a good, standard issue clutch for an evening wedding. It's a good $10 rental if you don't own anything equivalent . My only issue with it was the size of the opening. I could just barely fit my I phone 6 into it if I shoved it in diagonally. Otherwise, it was a functional little bag.

Not for a short torso

This dress is pretty and of a nice quality, but I think you really need to be slender with a long torso to wear it well. I'm an hourglass figure, and as a result, the waist of the dress, which I believe is supposed to be dropped, sat right at my natural waist. This would have been fine, except that it made the top of the dress very ill fitting - much too long in the shoulders and baggy all around. Since I have a larger chest, I sized up (I'm between a 6 and an 8). While a 6 might have had a bit less gaping fabric at the top, I doubt it would have fixed the fit issues. It's just not the right dress for my body type.

Quality basic black dress

This dress was of a nice quality and is exactly as pictured on the model. However, as a classic hourglass, I was somewhat surprised by just how much it hugged my curves, which caused the dress to lay oddly. I'm between a 6 and an 8 at the moment, and based on other reviews, I ordered the six. I think the eight would have been more flattering. If you're pretty curvy, I would advise sizing according to your wider measurements.

Elegant, with a little edge

I love how this dress manages to look both understated and eye-catching at the same time. I had three different people tell me that I reminded them of Kate Middleton when they were looking at the front of the dress ... then the back of the dress holds a little surprise. This was actually my "back-up dress," but it turned out to be much more flattering than my original choice. I had to wear a NuBra (I am a 34D), which I had never done before, but it worked fine because of the simplicity of the dress in the front and the modest neckline. I felt perfectly comfortable. I vacillate between a size 4 and 6, depending in the brand and style. I wore the 4 here and it was a little snug - it looked fine but if I were to wear it again, I'd go for the 6. At 5'7", I wore the regular length with 4.5 inch heals, and the long side of the dress didn't reach the ground. I didn't feel this mattered, since it was asymmetrical, but if you want it to reach the floor at that height, you would need a long. Lastly, I did notice that there was a row of safety pins up the interior right side of the 4R dress (where presumably the mesh had once separated from the side of the dress), but you couldn't tell from the outside and I didn't feel them at all while wearing the dress, so this didn't bother me. All in all, I highly recommend this dress.

Attention Grabbers

I received these earring as my "mystery bling" and was very pleased. I wore them with the Halston Herritage Great Lengths Dress, and they stole the show. I got so many compliments on them. They were a little heavier than earrings that I'm used to wearing, but I quickly got used to them and had no problem wearing them through the night.

Great, functional little clutch

This clutch is a lovely, simple accessory. It is beautiful, but lets your dress or jewelry do the talking. It fit my phone, a rather large lipstick, and my keys comfortably, and had a separate pocket where I stored my ID and credit card. In sum, it was a great little clutch and I would use it again.

Not a standout

I ordered this dress expecting the ruching would make it very figure flattering. Unfortunately, that didn't turn out to be the case for me. It certainly wasn't bad, but I didn't feel that it did much to highlight an hourglass figure. That said, the fit was fine and the material was light and comfortable. It just ended up being a bit of a snooze fest. I chose to wear my back up dress instead.

Not good for hourglass figures

This dress was selected for me by rent the runway when they were unable to fill the back up size order for my first choice dress. It's not a style i would have chosen for myself, and therefore I wasn't surprised when it fit oddly. Areas that drape loosely on the model pulled and stretched over my hips and bust, yet other areas were loose. I have a feeling this would look great on someone straight and slender, but I'd avoid it if you are at all curvy.
