This is a great dress if you're petite. I am not petite but also not toweringly tall. Luckily I wore sparkle tights under this dress so it worked out ok but it's REALLY short. Other than that, it's a pretty fabric and I loved the lace.

The fit is true to size. I rented this but didn't end up wearing it. But with that said, I'd probably wear it for the next wedding event. It has little sequins sewn into the fabric and the beautiful pink lace overlay is absolutely gorgeous. The only weird thing about this dress was the strange inside zipper. I couldn't really figure out what purpose that was serving because it just hung there on its own. ALSO... I am 5'7" and even in 4 inch heels, this dress was LONG. I will go with the regular next time.

I am SO sad right now. SO SAD. This dress just arrived and I was excited to try it on. But it didn't fit! I never thought my torso was long but I guess it is??? The waistline of this dress hits about an inch above my belly button and the pretty mesh straps that cross over the front are too short for my shoulder to waist area so it tugs at the waistline of the dress and makes it flip upwards. It also runs SMALL. Tight in the bust area so size up!

The fit is true to size. If you're in between sizes, definitely size up. There is NO wiggle room if you think you can maybe squeeze into the smaller size. With that said, this dress is absolutely gorgeous. It's flowy and comfortable and the colors are beautiful. It's the perfect mix of violets, lavenders and periwinkles. The one tiny thing with this dress is that the sizing recommends a 2L for anyone over 5'6" and in 4 inch heels, the dress was still the tiniest bit long on me.

Fits true to size. Love me a good Shoshanna dress and this one did not disappoint. I love the sweetheart neckline and I absolutely ADORE pockets in my dress/skirt so this was perfect. The color is slightly pinker than the pastel orange shown on the model but it was pretty nonetheless. Love!

It runs large. I could have gone with an XS instead of the S. Also, the color is more a NEON pink and orange instead of the pretty peachy and pink shown on the model. It was so bright and punchy that I actually opted to go with a different dress. It could be great on a blonde I think. But with my dark hair, I think this dress was a bit too much. Just personal taste though.

It's a bit unconventional to wear this dress to most offices. But I have a bit of a flexible work environment when it comes to attire so I can be a little creative without being too over the top. This dress was great! Fun with a little black blazer to keep it looking chic and pulled together at work and it transitioned perfectly to dinner right after. :)

I love the collar and the longer length to cover my butt during the cold NYC winters. It's not bulky at all and was perfect underneath coats. It gave me that extra layer of warmth and still kept me looking luxe and put together no matter what. Turned every outfit into something just a little more special.

It's a lovely dress. The lace is delicate and I loved that there was the sheerest bit of metallic sparkle to the fabric. This dress definitely runs true to size. I got the 4 as my back up but the 2 fit better. I didn't have the problem of the back or shoulders falling or not staying put. But I can see how it would be a problem for those with slightly shorter torsos or a smaller frame in general. I have broad shoulders so it worked out fine for me. One thing.... this dress is incredibly short. When standing, it's no problem. But when you sit down, oh boy! Watch out. The dress hikes ALL the way up.

First of all... I love how cute this dress is. I love that it's covered up on top but reveals legs for miles. It's a part of the body that never really gets the center of attention because it's balanced out by a sleeveless top. SO... I loved that I could show off my legs in this. However, I also have broad shoulders and this dress was tight across the shoulder area. I usually wear a size 2 but good thing I ordered my back up size 4. That one fit way better up top. Also, yes, this dress has stretch in the mid section but PLEASE don't rely on that to squeeze into a small size. The mid section looks weird when it's stretched out. Do yourself a favor and go a size up so you have some wiggle room. Not too much but just a little.

It runs a bit large. Especially in the bust area. Perfect, tea length dress. I wore it with black, pointy toed suede heels and a delicate black jewel necklace and a voluminous updo. It felt very Mad Men.

The twist front drooped on me for some reason. I have a long torso so I figured it would work but then it hugs the wrong places on my body so I had to return it. I can see how it would be pretty on someone else but sad it didn't work for me.

I love love LOVE this clutch. It's a little bigger in person than in the photo. There was room to put my iPhone, a set of keys, lipstick + lip gloss, powder compact and my ID/credit cards/cash. There's also a pretty gold chain that turns this clutch into an over-the-shoulder accessory that came in handy for the after-party. No one wants to lug around a clutch when you're laughing with friends at a bar. The color is also fantastic. A muted gold. It goes with everything.

Such a beautiful dress. Loved the lace. Sometimes, lace can look kind of cheap but this one was beautiful. The red was a bright, orangey red, which was perfect for a summer wedding. It fit's pretty true to size. Only con would be that the lace around the neck like curl in. Probably due to the many rentals this dress has dealt with and all the dry cleaning.

A little blousey up top and fitted at the waist. Not as formal looking as I thought it might but it was still a lovely dress. Great color.

Get your size and the next size UP. It runs incredibly small. I'm only a 32B and I it was tight in the bust. I usually wear a 0 or 2.

These were a bit bigger than I thought they would be. However, they were still beautiful. I don't particularly like drop earrings so this worked out great. I'd definitely recommend.

Runs true to size. Cute dress. Nice metallic sheen. Great for a fancy girls' night out of dancing and revelry :)
