I LOVE THESE EARRINGS!!!

I wish I owned these earrings. Not only were they perfect with the Trina Turk Gold Tulip Dress that I rented for my bachelorette party in Chicago, but they would look fantastic with SO many other dresses and outfits... I would probably wear them all the time if I owned them. They make a statement, but without going overboard-- and they're really, really pretty. Was sad to send them back!

These earrings are BEAUTIFUL!

I love these earrings and want to own them! I wore them with the Christian Siriano Ballet Print Party Dress to the rehearsal dinner for my wedding, and actually wished I could wear them with my wedding dress as well-- they would have been perfect if I hadn't decided to go with pearls. I wish I had a good photo but didn't think of it... I found them to be the perfect size for my taste. They are subtle but add a touch of gorgeous sparkle and would look amazing with just about anything!

The fit wasn't right for me, but it looked great on my sister and she loved trying something new!

Unfortunately the size 40 was not available so I took my chances with the 42. It was too large and ill-fitting in general, so I wasn't able to wear it for the event I had planned to (pre-wedding brunch). However, it did happen to fit my sister (and MoH) and she wore it to my rehearsal dinner! It was fun because the style is completely out of her comfort zone. I would say this is more of a daytime dress, though. She found it to be very comfortable-- for reference, she is 5'7" 135 lbs, 34B/C. The Alexis Bittar Chantilly Garden Earrings were PERFECT with this dress-- definitely rent them together!!!

I had my heart set on this beautiful dress for my rehearsal dinner. It truly is a work of art!

This dress is so beautiful. I had to use fashion tape because the bust area is loose and if I were to bend over, it would show everything. This probably wouldn't be the case for those who are more well-endowed-- but it doesn't look bad my small chest, like i can't fill it out, or anything. I am tall with long legs and the length was good for me. The photo I have is just when I was trying it on, so I'm not wearing the accessories or shoes or anything but it shows the fit at least! The only fit issue was the band around my ribcage (which other reviewers have mentioned, I believe)-- it felt too tight and made it a bit hard to breathe! But it didn't look too tight, and fit everywhere else-- I did try on the size 6 but it was too big.

As my back-up dress, it was NOT flattering on me-- but happened to look amazing on my sister!

This dress was not flattering on me due to my very small bust. Other than that, it fit well but probably would have been too short for my taste. My sister is 5'7" 135 lbs and 34B-- she wore a push-up bra but I thought it looked good without one, too. She did have to apply lots of fashion tape to prevent her bra from showing, and required frequent readjustments (main issues were the bra showing and it riding up so she had to keep pulling it down). I think one size up would have probably solved those problems. She really loved the dress and looked amazing in it, but would order a size larger next time.

Seriously felt like a supermodel in this dress- and got the attention around Chicago like I was one!

This dress is amazing. I wore it for my bachelorette party in Chicago and it turned heads everywhere we went. It was extremely comfortable-- no issues with the fit whatsoever and at no point did I feel any discomfort. I'm tall with long legs but somewhat conservative (usually!!) and I felt like the length was absolutely perfect. I wore a strapless bra and had no issues with undergarments. LOVE this dress!!!

Super easy and comfortable!

I rented the XSL and SL, based on other reviews saying the dress ran large. I usually wear a 2-4, and the XSL fit me very well. The SL was a little bit too large, but I could have worn it if I had to. I wore the dress for one of my bridal showers. I really liked it and got several compliments. I did NOT like the look of this dress with the belt/string/tie that came with it... I think maybe it's because I'm so tall, and the place on the dress where it would make sense to belt it fell too high on me, above my waist. I was a bit worried that the dress looked sort of like a nightgown, though! I would have liked to style it with a different belt than what came with it, but like I said it didn't seem to work with how the dress fit due to my height. That being said, it was probably THE most comfortable thing I've ever worn and I felt great in it! I wore a strapless bra. Love that the straps on the dress are adjustable, too! It's rare for me to find a maxi dress that's long enough for me, and the length on this was perfect!

The many, many compliments I received-- including my fiance, who substituted his usual "You look very nice" with "You look great!" and the catering staff at the event, who told me they had deemed me the best dressed of the night :)

I've never experienced a situation where I got as many compliments from strangers as I did while wearing this dress. The 4R was the only size available, and I was nervous because I couldn't get in contact with anybody to find out about length. I'm 5'11" so I was afraid it would be too short. It was the perfect length for me wearing flats or sandals with a very small heel. It would be difficult for somebody more petite to wear this dress without hemming quite a bit. I am very small on top (my bust as well as my overall frame) and I always have to wear a bra, or I look completely flat. This dress was awesome, though, because it has perfect boning in the bust and I was able to go braless with comfort! Very exciting. I'd say this dress is about TTS but it may run a little small.... I'm usually a 2 or sometimes 0, and this dress fit me well but as I wore it, I realized I did have a bit more extra room than I thought. Not sure if the 2 would fit better or not. The color is gorgeous, and the skirt part has a bit of sheen to it. I will say that the dress was extremely wrinkled when I received it, which was a pretty big inconvenience since I was out of town and very short on time. I'm not sure if I would rent this dress again... I think I'd be more likely to try to buy it!

Loved how everybody turned to stare when we walked in-- in a GOOD way!

I am 5'11", 140 lbs, and I rented the 4 and 6. When I tried them on, they both seemed a little big but the 4 fit fairly well. I know it's the style of the dress, but I felt like it was very wide and lacked any sort of shape-- tried adding a belt but that didn't work. Both sizes were clearly too short for the conservative wedding I was attending, but I wore the dress the next night out to dinner with black tights and black bootie heels. When we walked into the restaurant, I swear- every single person to look (probably because I was very tall, but I also felt fabulous in the dress!). It worked fine with the black tights for a night out, but if I lifted my arms at all it barely kept my butt covered! Like others said, it did have a slight purplish sheen to it- if it were slightly longer, I'd want to own this dress.

Great fit, thin material

I rented the 4 and 6; the size 4 fit only if I didn't wear a bra (and I have a very small bust), but otherwise I couldn't get it zipped. The 6 was a little big, but fit well enough. I didn't think it looked good in person with black shoes, so I went for nude instead. It was a little bit cold for the dress; the jersey material is very thin, and unfortunately I wound up wearing my sweater for the majority of the (indoor) event, so I couldn't show it off as I would have hoped!
