Teeny tiny
This runs SUPER small. I ordered a 4, normally wear a 2-4, and it wasn't even able to zip. I would order 2x up.

Uncomfortable slit
Thought I'd be able to wear this to work - and was on my way before I realized how awkward the slit is. It is VERY high and you are at constant risk of flashing anyone you pass while walking. This is a gorgeous skirt if you are standing...or sitting. Otherwise you have to be comfortable with the slit showing your entire thigh.

Comfy and cute
These are so much fun! Definitely size up - maybe two sizes. I am a size 4, 5'10, and rented a MR, but could have used a LR given my height. Adorable!

Lots of fabric
I think if I had rented a size down, it could have worked. But it is SO much fabric - it bunches on the top and almost gives you a look of being top heavy. Had to return without wearing - just gave me a frumpy vibe.

Runs small
Loved the fabric, but it definitely runs small. I don't think it's suitable for work, given the front is actually a slit ALL the way up - the buttons are fake. So be prepared for a large slit up the front!

Pepto Bismal
Wanted to love this, but ended up feeling like a giant pepto bismol. It was just a bit bulky and didn't look as nice as I wanted it to.

Perfect spring dress
This dress is absolutely gorgeous, but I'm not sure if it lives up to the $1400 price tag. Perfect for vacation, brunch, etc. - at the end of the day, it's a great cotton dress.

Adorable!
Absolutely loved this dress. I sized up (I'm a solid 4, and wore a 42), because Valentino tends to run small. Glad I did - it fits perfectly.

SMALL
I am a solid size 4....sometimes if I'm desparate to wear something, I can size up to a 6. I figured sizing up to a 38 in this dress (looking at the reviews of it running small) would be sufficient - NOPE. I could barely even get this on.

Very exposing
I rented this for the office - and really wanted to love it. The buttons for the wrap don't go far enough down the leg - so it creates a really high slit whenever you walk, get a gust of wind, or sit down.... And the bust is SUPER revealing.

Weird proportions
Loved the idea of this dress, but in reality, the sizing was a bit off. The top was pretty large - but it barely made it past my hips. The zipper goes all the way up to your belly button - so it's easy to get on and off. I really wanted to love this dress.

Itchy and short
I rented this for work - and wasn't able to wear it. The fabric is just a bit itchy - scratchy wool. I also found it to be too short for my office - mid-thigh.

Great weekend dress
I rented this for a casual work day - but it was far TOO casual. The slit is very high, and the top is definitely too revealing. Would be great for a weekend dress, but not work.

HUGE!
Couldn't wear this - I think I'd need to go at least two sizes down. Was swimming in it - so much fabric.

I have received so many compliments on this dress at work! It is perfect to dress up work to night, too. Fits true to size.

Fits well besides the bust
The fit was perfect except for the bust - way too small. I can't imagine it would fit anyone above a B. It is such a cute dress, so I'm hoping that sizing up will help!

BEST DRESS
This dress is EVERYTHING. Fits TTS, although I would say not for a big-busted girl. The pockets are perfection, the ties on top are adorable, and the color is radiant. I would buy this in a heart beat.

Unique and fun
I got so many compliments on this! As the other reviews note, the ruffles don't stand up on the top. I ended up pinning them (can't use fashion tape because it'll get stuck in your hair). It's the perfect length and is super flattering. The bust was a bit large, but nothing that would prevent me from wearing for a night. Would totally rent again!

Perfect Spring Dress
I wore this for Easter brunch - it was a total hit. The fabric feels high quality, and it is super flattering. The cut isn't too low, so it is good for a daytime event. Very comfortable and easy to wear - hope to rent this again soon!

Zipper doesn't work
Pretty dress - but impossible to zip due to the fabric. Maybe I should have gone up a whole size - it is also hard to wear a bra with this due to the cut (shows straps). Bought for work, but was unable to wear!
