Fiance loved it!
This is a great dress because you can wear it to anything. It's classy for work and still sexy for afterwards...I got hit on while I was pumping gasoline. Fiance said it was great!

Interesting construction, received compliments mostly because it's so unique. The skirt fits a little big and bows out strangely. Also, some of the threads in the weave are loose. Fiance liked it. Not the best, certainly not the worst, he said.

Fiance liked it ok...
This dress has all the elements I love, thick textured fabric, unique cuts, etc. I wanted this dress to look sultry and a little Spanish...but there is something about it on that reminds me of Witches of Eastwick. Also, the sleeve edges rub on your arms while you walk and it's uncomfortable. Fiance said he liked it, but he hesitated.

Very sophisticated pattern, classy look, love the mesh, slip and accent layers. BONUS: Slip can be worn separately as a casual dress/pajama. Fiance said he liked it several times, and kept wanting me to meet people while wearing it. YAY!

Too big
The dress is too big to wear for a size 4...or maybe even a size 8. The top is cut so low that your chest falls out. Dress is also a strange color/material. It looks bright and summery in the pictures, but is very dull and threadbare in person. I didn't let my fiance see it.

This is a simple white dress with a sparkly trim that makes it versatile for day or night. Great fit! Too short for work. Fiance loved it, said "great dress" even before I put it on, and kept wanting to take pictures.

The color and pattern on this dress looks nice. Usually DVF is a consistent bet for versatility. But this dress runs SMALL, and the cut is too revealing on the chest and legs. I found myself adjusting the dress every few minutes. Fiance opinion is most important. He says it "fit weird on the waist."

This dress has a flattering body fit. The side slit is very high on the thigh, so I was concerned. But it actually looks sexy while remaining classy enough. The dress color/style reminds me a little of a circus. But it looks GREAT on camera. Fiance opinion is most important. He didn't say anything, but when prompted, said "it's good...much better than last time."

Received compliments from several women on this dress. It has a rich red color, and the texture on top is great, especially in contrast to the smooth skirt. This dress might be a little formal for work, the designer should have been a top off for me that this dress is better for weddings. Also, would look best on someone tall, narrow and straight, as the skirt has structured volume. Fiance opinion is most important. He did not offer one, but when asked, he said it was "good."

The dress is a pretty color and a great design concept. But the fit is literally like a brown paper bag. If you tie the ribbons as tightly as possible, the dress also gets weird creases. I actually received a couple compliments from women...however none from men. Fiance opinion is most important. He didn't say anything, and when prompted he said "it was ok" but "not very flattering."

Alberta Ferretti is one of my favorite designers. This dress is feminine, but also edgy and sexy at the same time. Cut is unique and accentuates waist. The eyelet material is a great way to pull off black in summer. Fiance opinion is most important. He didn't offer one, but when prompted said "it's good."

Fiance liked it.
The fabric of this dress is awesome quality...heavy and textured. Also, pattern is beautiful, reminds me of the classic Vuitton Damier Azul. The bright underside color of the dress might even be better...they should have made it reversible. Also, tassels are on point trendy. The fit is best meant for someone narrow and straight. If you are an hourglass like me, dress will over exaggerate your hips. Fiance opinion is most important. He didn't offer one, but when prompted, he said "it was good... preppy and reminds me of the Cape."

I adore this dress, so thank goodness it comes in so many color options. Sexy fit and comfortable. I purchased the orange, so might be buying this too. Fiance opinion most important. He said "That dress looks great, I want Kevin to see you in it."

great colors, and fit is perfect. I normally wear small, but the xs was fine, just a little sexier fit. Maybe a bit too casual for work...so I wore a shirt underneath to hide cleavage, and then removed it for date night. Fiance opinion is the most important. He said "that's a great dress."

I want to love this brand, and I almost do. The designs are so preppy and cute. The fit is just a little off, fabric is stiff and chest fits tight if you are bigger than a B. This color combo is better than the pastel orange one, which I also rented. Fiance opinion is the most important. But he was quiet. I could tell I wasn't going to like what he had to say, so I didn't ask.

I've always wanted to wear this expensive brand. I liked the sophisticated pattern, silky fabric quality and sexy fit of this dress. I love how the straps hang in back, very high fashion. BUT the straps are too long, would not stay put, even when pinned! Very annoying. Fiance opinion is the most important. He said the "fabric looked like a grandma." That was pretty insulting.

Very cool skirt, nice shade of yellow. Note that dress runs a little big in the waist. Fiance opinion is most important. On the first wear, he told me to change outfits. But on the second wear, he said it "was nice." The only thing I changed was shoes, going from wedges to flat sandals. Go figure.

Fits great, trendy sleeves, and a lovely color. I really enjoyed this dress. Fiance opinion is most important. He did not offer one, but when prompted, he said it was "ok." That means it wasn't ok.

This dress has a modern Japanese feel. Fiance opinion is most important. On the first wear, he said it "are you going to wear that? It looks like a robe." But on the second wear, he said "rent the runway actually has nice stuff." So I think an overall thumbs up.

it's a cute cut, the ruffles are slimming, but it's oddly matronly at the same time. Fiance opinion is most important. He was quiet. When prompted, he said he wasn't impressed.

Everyone compliments the color...it is LOUD...but awesome. People will tell you you look like you are going hunting or posing as a traffic cone. But they will also tell you how hot you are. Fit is sexy and comfortable. Fiance opinion is most important . He said it was the best dress I ever wore, and he bought it for me. So this was a relationship home-run.
