Wow, wow, wow, wow!
I can NOT say enough good things about this dress. I am normally a size 14-16 (because of my hips)- but probably closer to the size 16 range, weighing 230 lbs. I rented a 16- and lord- it definitely pulls your body together. Arms were a little tight. It did have some stretch, but it’s meant to fit tight. Dress made me look 1-2 sizes smaller. Overall, I loved this rental and recommend it 1000 times over. If you could, I recommend 1 size up, but it’s fine if you don’t also.

Great piece of you can get the zipper up!
I wound up not wearing this jumpsuit because no matter how hard I tried- the zipper did not get up. I did wear this piece for another occasion in black in which it ALSO gave me a hard time coming up (I thought it was me :-( If you do manage to get the zipper up, the jumpsuit has a great stretchy material and hides everything.

Loved it!
Great stretch factor, but runs short. If you're tall, this probably isn't for you. Overall, it looked amazing! Pulled everything all in, but I still was able to feel super comfortable in it. Def recommend and would wear again.

I ABSOLUTELY LOVEDDDD THIS DRESS!
I absolutely Loved and adored this dress, but because it has little to no stretch factor, the zipper wouldn't go up. This dress however is worth losing weight for. GORGEOUS!

Did not wear this dress, but....
Dress was beautiful all in all. It has a great stretch factor so you can fit in with no problem. It's not a strong "hold it all in" material, so you would probably need a shaper.

Gorgeouusss rent! Did not wear- but tried on and it was gorgeous!
Loved the dress- but didn't have a good stretch factor. Other than that, it was perfect in all other areas. Runs a little small. Wouldn't recommend for someone with a large chest.

Did not wear. Not worth it.
I didn't wear this- but I did try it on and barley for my body in it. It has ZERO stretch to it and the material feels very cheap. Not worth the rental.

Amazing rental! Got compliments all night!
Another rental that blew me away! The jumpsuit was comfortable and had a semi-thick material that kinda hides everything underneath and gives you a nice silhouette. I sized up because I have big hips, so the larger size worked better- but the smaller one was fine also. Def would recommend this. It is true to size- but if you're curvy- you may want to size up.

Drop.Dead.Gorgeous.Dress. Compliments all day and night! Stunning!
There aren't enough good words in the human language to describe how much I loved this dress. It was comfortable, GORGEOUS, had a decent stretch factor and a good quality material that hides any imperfections. This dress is a must!!! The beautiful strap in the back gives it an extra wow factor... This dress is perfect across all boards! Would def recommend.

Ehh..
I wound up not wearing this- but tried it on. Nice color, but it runs about 2 sizes large and doesn't really give any shape to your body.

Did not wear this- but would totally rent it again fir another event!
The picture dies NOT do this dress justice! I sounds up not wearing this- but tried it on just in case. The material is strong yet very comfortable. Color is also more vibrant than it appears. Most importantly- this dress does have a good stretch factor to it, so you won't be uncomfortable! Love this dress. Will wear next time!

Did not wear this- but I tried it on, and the guy was great!
I did not wear this for the event I went to- but I tried it on and the fit was beautiful! It's silk/silk like material, so as you can imagine, it could run a little large. Length was a little past the ankle, and the boob area- may need a safety pin or black camisole underneath. Other than that- I would totally rent for my next event!

Dress is beautiful, but a little small.
I gave this a 3 because the dress is very beautiful- however, it runs kinda small. Would recommend up-ing in size. In my case, I wasn't able to.

Beautiful dress- but looked short.
Not sure if it was just me- but it seems as though this dress runs a little short. As far as the fit- it was "ok". Does not give shape, but if you do not have an hour glass shape- this dress is perfect.

Beautiful dress, Beautiful color!
This dress came to me as a back up. Although I did not end up wearing it- it was a huge contender. The dress is SO comfortable, with a great stretch/form fitting material. Hides everything! If i go to another formal event, I definitely will rent this.

Great dress! Stretchy fabric, but holds it all together!
Wore this dress to a wedding. Received compliments all night for this dress! What shreds about it is it's a thick/stretchy material, so it "holds it all in" but you'll feel very comfortable in it! I wasn't going to wear this dress, but I'm glad I did!
