Super high quality and drop dead gorgeous!

I loved this necklace and didn't want to return it! The sculptural quality and hue was gorgeous. I ended up wearing it to work the day before my event because I loved it so much! The rose gold went perfectly with my dress and features. The only critique is it's a little short - I wore it on the longest length possible and I would have liked 1-2 more inches so it didn't slip inside my neckline as much.

Beautiful but can't wear a bra

When I rented this as my backup dress I didn't realize it was backless. I couldn't wear a bra with it (and I need one) so this was a miss for me. The lace detail is really nice and sexy tho!

Gorgeous drape! So many compliments!

This dress was stunning! I got compliments all night long! The cut and drape are just phenomenal. Shows a little leg and perfectly framed my tattoos. The bodice was a teeny bit tight when I first put it on but I got used to it. The waist hit perfectly at my natural waist so I didn't even need to wear spanx! Dancing was fun because of how it moved. Highly recommended for any black tie or formal events! Rose gold jewelry went perfectly with it.

Beautiful but too small

Gorgeous color and stones with nice sparkle. Subtle. Does not adjust - too small on my wrist.

Beautiful well-balanced dress with exceptional craftsmanship

I tried this on at the Georgetown store and on the hangar (and even online) I wasn't sold on it, but when I put it on it was clearly the dress for the wedding I was going to. The flounce balanced out the asymmetrical bodice in a really lovely way. The only thing I would have liked different is for the whole thing to be mirrored as I have a sleeve tattoo I wanted to show off. The 20 fit well but was a tiny bit snug around my ribs. I had to have someone else do up the zipper for me. There was a little bit of gaping on the strapless side, but nothing too bad. The 22 I could do up myself but the gaping was much worse.

Skirt was way too small - felt like no difference between 16 and 22

I tried on the 16 at the Georgetown store knowing it would be way too small but I wanted to see what it looked like. I got the 22 as a backup for my formal event, but the skirt was just as tight as it was on the 16! I was really disappointed. It's a beautiful dress - it just didn't fit.
