Too heavy
I thought these were super cute and really wanted to wear them to a wedding but opted not to because they were way too heavy.

Fitted yet comfy
I put on a few breakup pounds this year (lol) and don't normally wear fitted dresses so I didn't feel totally confident in this, but I got tons of compliments, especially from my gal pals about how good the *girls* looked. I wish there'd been a size between the small and medium, but am glad I wore the medium! Super comfortable for sitting, eating, dancing, etc.

Chic & comfortable
This dress is a compliment machine! Unique and chic, plus so comfortable and ideal for a wedding on a crispy fall day. The dress hit me right above the ankles (I'm 5'8"), so ankle boots were perfect.

Feminine & flattering
My only complaint about this dress is about the long-ish straps. They weren't a problem when moving around, but they kept slipping down when I was sitting during the ceremony and dinner. Pinning them in the back probably would've solved the problem. Otherwise, great dress! Loved the style, got lots of compliments, super fun for dancing. I used a little boob tape to give the girls some shape, but didn't need a bra. I sized down, but could've easily worn the 4. Would recommend!

Perfect for a spring wedding
So, the straps are technically adjustable, but even the shortest length was a tad too long. I squeezed into the XS mostly because the straps on the S kept slipping down my shoulders. Loved it otherwise.

Fun pop of color
Loved these! A perfect pop of color. Plus, not heavy at all. I forgot I was wearing them most of the time. Got lots of compliments.

Easy rehearsal dinner dress
I saw the reviews that said the ribcage was a little tight, but the medium was unavailable so I stuck with the small and hoped for the best. I made it work, but wow - that ribcage fabric is very snug with zero stretch. Overall I loved the dress. Gorgeous color, flowy, light. But you definitely need to size up with this one!

Clueless chic
I loved this dress so much. Was a little worried about not being able to wear a bra, but it wasn't a problem with the fabric. So comfortable, great fit, perfect length, plus an absolute compliment factory. Can't recommend enough!

Colorful, sweat-friendly dress!
I just loved wearing this dress. Even though it's longer, I felt as comfortable as one can possibly feel at an outdoor wedding in 105 degree Northern California heat. I was a tad (ahem, quite) sweaty, but the dress hid it very well. There's a light slip inside the dress, which cuts off above the knees. I wore a strapless bra just to keep the girls in place, but you could go without if you're comfortable with that. I wore the backup XS instead of the S because the waist and sleeves had some stretch and didn't feel too tight. I got tons of compliments and felt beautiful. Highly recommend!

So flattering! Great color & sleeves
I loved wearing this! I'm usually a 2/4 and could've even gone a size down from the 2 I think. But the 2 was still great. I got a ton of compliments. I adored the color, sleeves, and shape it gave my body. So flattering. I did have to iron down the darts on the chest area because they landed in a weird spot, but a little heat fixed the problem. Fabric is also good! I wore a black bra and no one could tell. Definitely recommend!

Wedding of a bff is always unforgettable!
First of all, I hardly ever wear tight dresses like this, but I've been trying to wear things outside of my comfort zone and this dress was that! I loved it though. It was definitely tight and I probably could've worn the 6 instead of the 4, but wearing the 4 meant not needing a bra, which was fab. It was fine for dancing once the night got going, but gotta be a little careful with that middle slit - can't get too carried away. This dress managed to make me feel both elegant and sexy. Would recommend! Definitely order one size up though as back-up to be safe.

It was the wedding of two close friends on Halloween in MI. An excellent Hallowedding weekend :)
I loved the dress! The 2 was a little tight on the bust and shoulders, but the 4 was perfect. I loved the length (just above the knees), the fabric was thick (perfect for the chilly, fall wedding), and the cut was very flattering. I got compliments all night. Sending it back was sad.
