Pretty dress
This dress was so gorgeous on, however the sizing is a bit odd. The medium barely zipped and the large was quite room in the chest. The fabric was fairly heavy but still clingy, so needed some shapewear underneath. Overall, it was a really pretty dress for a November wedding.

Beautiful but runs large
This dress was so fun to wear for a summer wedding and brought in lots of compliments thanks to the vibrant colors! The length was perfect for my 5’8” frame hitting at a midi length. The boning in the bust was comfortable, but a little large so while I didn’t quite fill it out it still was wearable. I ended up wearing the size 6 but could have maybe squeezed into the size 4 (the size 8 was much too large)

Nice dress
The dress was so pretty! The size 8 was way too tight and didn’t come close to zipping while the 10 was a bit gapey in the chest, but a little fashion tape did the trick to avoid any mishaps. The back is very pretty but can’t wear a regular bra fyi

Great fit
Loved this dress, was very flattering and the true wrap style was perfect for having a newborn along with me. I ended up wearing the 10 as the 8 didn’t have enough fabric in the chest area, although it fit nice everywhere else. The 10 did gape a little in the chest but as long as I kept good posture it wasn’t an issue!

Major cleavage!
This dress is super cute, but has not nearly enough fabric up top! I had to wear a black camisole underneath otherwise I would have been flashing everyone the entire dinner! The wrap style did have a good amount of crossover in the skirt, so thankfully I only had to worry about the top half all night.

Perfect for my son's baptism!
This dress was so comfortable to wear! The neckline hit pretty low for church, but a black camisole solved that problem easily. The wrap style was great as I am still breastfeeding, however the cross over of the fabric wasn't quite as much as I needed in the wind - but on a more still day would have been perfect! I loved the sleeve detail as it added just the right amount of interest and the skirt laid perfect on my 5 weeks postpartum stomach. I styled with nude heels and loved the look!

Fits well
This dress was great for my work holiday party. Fit well and how i would expect. It hit a little above my knee. Was very comfortable

Perfect Jumpsuit
This was very comfortable to wear all day between the wedding ceremony and reception, it had the perfect amount of stretch but still held its shape all night. The arms are a bit restricting and it hit a bit lower on my chest than I anticipated, but still loved it. It definitely requires a friend for any trips to the restroom. The length was perfect, I'm 5'8" and wore this with 3" heels.

Great dress
Loved wearing this dress, the 8 fit great but wish i would have also ordered the 10 to compare. I received so many compliments all night long and felt so confident wearing it. The dress is definitely fitted, but the fabric is really thick so helps to hold everything in place - i did still wear spanx and a strapless bra under the dress though.
