Didn't Want to Take It Off!
I rented the 4 and 6 for this dress for our anniversary/birthday vacation. I am usually a 6 but I wore the 4 and there was still room in it, so it seems like it runs big. If you are small busted, you don't need a bra, and yes, it has pockets! It was very comfortable and I didn't want to take it off!

Very comfortable and fun to wear!
I rented this for a weekend in D.C. I rented the small regular, which fit fine (I'm 5'9 1/2). I wore leather flip flops with it, not heels, so the length was perfect. The dress isn't see-through, but I wore nude colored underwear just in case. I also wore a strapless bra with it, which worked perfectly. I would definitely recommend this for pretty much anything!

Cute, but not very comfortable.
I rented this for a weekend in D.C. I got the 4 and the 6, and the 4 was way too short. There was no way I could wear it, and I'm 5'9 1/2. The 6 was better, still a little short. It made sitting somewhat awkward. The fabric is a heavier satin than what I thought it would be. You have to put your arms through the ruffles, and this was somewhat uncomfortable. It was very cute, though.

I rented this dress for NYE. I rented both the 6 and the 4 and went with the 4. The dress is basically A-line, but the lace in the arms is neither stretchy nor forgiving, so if you have bigger arms you might want to size up. I would recommend wearing a strapless bra with it since the slip that it comes with is just spaghetti straps.
Red Mod Lace Dress

Very fun dress!
I rented both the 6 and the 4 for a long weekend vacation. The 6 was a little big in the cutout area, and with the 4 I couldn't wear a strapless bra because the band was showing. If you are small busted you can get away with no bra. Otherwise, it was very comfortable and perfect for our trip!

I loved wearing this dress. Shoshona tends to run large, so I would order your regular size, then the smaller size. I am typically a 6, and every time I order a Shoshona dress, I get a 6 and a 4, and I always end up wearing the 4! The dress is basically backless, so you can't wear a regular bra. I wore adhesive cups which worked fine. The dress also has pockets and is generally very comfortable to wear.

So glad I rented for Valentine's Day!
I rented the 4 and the 6 and ended up wearing the 4, which was still a little big around the midsection. I typically consider myself a 6, so I thought it ran big, yet the sleeves were a little short. There are also zippers on the sleeves that I didn't quite get (unzipping them doesn't do much for the dress). The dress is sort of plain, so I wore patterned tights. It was perfect because I didn't want or need a really fancy dress, just something nice to wear out to dinner.

I rented this dress for my husband's fraternity reunion. I rented the 4 and 6 and I went with the 4, which was a little snug, but the 6 was somewhat baggy on me in the midsection area. This dress is one you could really dress up, or wear it more casually. In person, the blue stripes are more evident, and that's what gives it a teal-like look in pictures. It's very comfortable, and you don't necessarily have to wear a bra with it if you're small-busted. One thing that could be important is that in order to put this dress on, you have to pull it over your head, so that could complicate things if you're getting your hair done in some sort of intricate updo. That's why I just opted for a blowout. Definitely a great choice!

Getting lots of compliments from people about the dress.
I wore this dress to a wedding and I absolutely loved wearing it. I got the 4 and 6 and didn't even try the 6 on--the 4 fit fine. I didn't wear a bra with it, but you could wear a strapless one. It was comfortable and I got tons of compliments on it. You may have to run an iron over it when it's delivered because it does wrinkle.

Never Enough Ruffle Dress

Feeling comfortable and stylish all day!
I loved wearing this dress. I am 5'9 1/2 and as you can see in my picture, this dress is not as short on me as it is the model, so don't worry about the length. I think Shoshana tends to run big, especially in the bust area, but I have a very small chest and I didn't wear a bra. I usually wear a 6 but I can get away with a 4 with her dresses.The fabric is like linen, so it doesn't really wrinkle, and it has pockets! It also comes with a matching rope belt. I wore it with nude patent peep toe heels, and it still looked cute with the J. Crew flip flops I changed into at the end of the night.
