Great dress for winter party - careful with length for smaller sizes

I didn't end up wearing this because it was my backup and I liked the colors of the other dess better, but it is a great dress. I especially liked that it was lined and thus a little heavier, which is nice for winter. Only S and L were available, which was too bad as the M would have fit perfect. I would have worn the L if the orher dress didn't fit, as the small was reeeeeallllly short - and I'm only 5'4". The color is a little closer to purple than the true royal blue shown in the photo.

Very cute, nice colors

I went for this one because the one shoulder dresses have worked well for me in the past. The colors were great and unique amoung the reds and blacks of the holiday party. The lines of the dress are very flattering. The only potential downside is that there is no lining - so you have ot be very careful with undergarments and nylons if you don't want lines.

Great classic look!

The dress was perfect for the 50's style wedding I attended, and was very comfortable as well as cute! High quality material too.

Most compliments of any dress ever

This dress was amazing. Both the 2 and 4 fit, but the material is a little stretchy/clingy, so I was worried about undergarments showing in the 2. The fit is amazing, but I will warn that it will show any figure "flaw," so it's not for you if you have a "tummy" issue or the like. I got so many compliments. I think the best part is the back - most people see the front and think it's pretty, and then the back is the big surprise and wow factor. A NuBra woks great with this dress, and there is amble room in the top. Amazing dress I would highly recommend. I'm mad that I don't have a picture to post, but I'm hoping to find one that someone took.

I got lots of complimants on this one. I loved the fit and it was loose enough in the midsection to accomodate wedding food. :) Very pretty, and a quality material. I'll upload a picture once I have one available. I typically wear a 4 or 6 and the XS was perfect.

I told a friend that it was a rental and she said after seeing it from all angles that I should buy it!

I wore this and got LOTS of compliments on it! :) I love the material, the pattern, and the "flowy" part over the left shoulder. It was great for a hot evening, and I danced in it quite a bit without worrying about any wardrobe issues. Loved it!

Didn't wear but very cute

I only didn't wear it because the other dress I had gotten I liked better (see Christian Siriano dress review). It is quite fitted (but fit perfect in UK 10), but at some angles it made me look a little bigger than I am because of the design of the flowy pieces of fabric on the sides. Very cute though.

When another mom (it was a school event) thought I was 10 years younger than her and I am only 2 years younger. :)

This dress was a big hit and I did like it a lot, but it wasn't what I expected in several ways. First, the material looks silky in the picture but it is not. It's a thin material without any sheen. The second aspect (which shows in the picture) is that the neck/halter section is quite a bit narrower than shown in the model photo. I got sizes 4 and 6, and I ended up going with the 6 because it seemed like the neck was slightly wider and could not otherwise descern any difference in fit between the sizes. I don't have broad shoulders but due to the narrow neck I would definitely avoid this dress if you do. The color/pattern was also considerably different between the two sizes, and the size 6 was better (had dark neck like the model photo). Also of note is that it is quite short. I am 5'4" and as you cna see it was several inches above the knee. A lot of this sounds negative but the dress really did look great and deserves the 4 stars. My only complaint was that I think the particular dress I wore had seen quite a bit of wear and drycleaning, as I could see little horizontal lines in the fabric - likely from the thinness of the material (probably doesn't hold up to multple rentals like other materials).
