Perfect rehearsal dinner dress
I wore this for my rehearsal dinner and it was absolutely gorgeous. I saw the all white version of this dress at BHDLN which cost $800. I loved this black/white version for 1/8 of the cost! It was about ankle length on me since i'm only 5'1, but it was so pretty and a great fit. Got tons of compliments and felt really special for my big day.

Super cute summer romper!
Loved this cute romper for a day out. Has a billowy, looser effect - the XS was perfect on me. Fun pattern and easy to wear!

Perfect bachelorette dress!
I wore this for my bachelorette party and it was perfect! Hugs your curves nicely but wasn't too sexy since it went a bit longer on my 5'1 frame. Wore it with with fun big earrings and it was perfect for a girls night out!

Cute but overwhelming on my petite frame
I rented this to wear to my post wedding brunch, and although super cute and a pretty pattern for a summer or spring dress, even the smallest size overwhelmed my petite frame. It has that billowy look that I think would look better on someone taller.

Perfect for fall
I wore this to an evening baby shower party in October and it was the perfect fall pattern. Fit true to size and looked great with a leather jacket over. Was a great short-but-not-too-short length on me (I'm only 5'1) and the ruffles were a cute touch for the occasion.

Cute and comfortable romper for daytime
Loved the whole, casual look and peek-a-boo back. There was some extra material at my waist because I'm shorter (shorter torso), maybe the XS would have fit better but I still really liked it. Very comfortable for hanging out during the day!

Great pattern but runs a bit big for short girls!
Really cute pattern but could have definitely worn the XS and it would've fit better.

Standout sparkler!
Loved this dress - super sparkly, unique, and form fitting. It's a little snug, especially around the midsection - the S was a bit tighter than I wanted but the M was way too big, so I went with the small and it ended up being fine. The sleeves were also a bit tight so I had to really pull them on, and you can't wear a bra (no problem form e), but I felt totally comfortable and snug in the dress for a night of dancing. The low back was sexy and I felt like a disco ball all night! Really fun dress I would wear again!

Perfect winter party dress
Absolutely loved this dress. Wore it to a birthday party in Brooklyn and it was sexy and fun, but still casual enough for a bar scene. I paired it with a leather jacket and booties. It fits just like all the other RVNs, true to size and form fitted in their amazing stretchy material. It almost looked like a sweater dress but was typical RVN bandage fabric. The stripes were super flattering - it was tight and went to my knees (I'm 5'1) and the sleeves hit my wrists perfectly.

Simple Dress
I didn't end up wearing this dress, but it was a nice simple, classic gown. It was actually a bit short (I got the R length and I'm only 5'1) which was strange, but it was form fitting and elegant, with a bit of a mermaid flair. It's so dark navy it's almost black, and the high neck is offset by the fun cut out back. Material is thick and stretchy, holds you in and would be good for winter time. Overall a very nice dress but nothing spectacular that stands out.

This dress was sent to me as a replacement.
It fit fine but it looked like a bridesmaids dress. The material felt and looked very bridemaids-y, I would not recommend it/ The cut was nice and the back was very cool, but I couldn't get past the material and pale blue color.

Gorgeous gown for a black tie wedding
The dress was gorgeous, but definitely a very low cut, plunging neckline, best for a smaller chest (I'm an A). I used double sided tape which worked like a charm. I'm only 5'1 so even in 5 inch heels the regular length was a few inches too long on me, so it dragged all night but I got used to holding it. The color was a vibrant blue and the cut is very flattering. I received a ton of compliments and felt elegant yet sexy all night, so that I stood out but not too much since it was my friend's wedding. Definitely a dress I'd recommend for someone a bit taller.

Gorgeous cut and color for a summer wedding!
Elizabeth and James does it again! As always their cuts are simple and sleek, in great vibrant colors. This dress was form fitting, a little snug in the stomach but overall very flattering. I'm 5'1 and it went to my knee, so on the longer side but appropriate for a wedding. Material was stretchy and comfortable, but also really held you in all around. I got tons of compliments and would definitely rent it again. I loved this dress!

Gorgeous color and cut
This dress fit perfectly - I would go one size up from your usual (as I do with all Elizabeth and James dresses).Color was a beautiful bright blue, great for summer. It was the perfect length on me but I'm only 5'1, so definitely runs very short. I wore it with a strapless bra and it was very comfortable stretchy material. Loved it!

I rented this for a rehearsal dinner and it was great!
I wore the XS because the Small was too wide in the shoulders. It was definitely snug but the material held me in well. It does tend to show any insecurities around the stomach area, so just keep that in mind, Spanx would probably do the trick. The pattern was really pretty, it came to just above my knee. I would definitely rent more Clover Canyon dresses in the future!

Rented this for my friend's bachelorette party and it was perfect!
This dress was so comfortable and fit like a glove. The material was stretchy and the perfect weight for a night out in Puerto Rico. It was sexy with the open back but the high necklace kept it classy. It was a nice, bright red so I really stood out. I got so many compliments and want to buy it I loved it so much!

This dress was a total showstopper! I got compliments all night long!
Loved everything about this dress! It was simple yet fit like a glove and really sparkled. The small fit absolutely perfectly and was super flattering. It was a great mid -thigh length on me (I'm only 5'1 though). Don't have one negative thing to say about it, it was perfect and I got tons and tons of compliments!

Amazing Dress!
Loved this dress. The Medium fit great but was a little worn at the bottom, so I went with the Large which sat smoother and was also a bit longer because the dress rides up a lot when you walk. It was extremely flattering and I got tons of compliments! I want to own it I loved it that much!
