Just a bit small
Got as a backup dress because I own a dress same brand, same style, different color/fabric so I was certain this would fit. But it didn’t! It was very tight! I guess the version I have must be a more forgiving fabric because it fits like a glove, this fit like a sausage casing! The embroidery is very pretty though!

Flattering and comfortable!
This dress is insanely comfortable. The fabric is a bit heavy, soft, and velvety, with tons of stretch. I tried the large and medium because I’m between sizes and the large just had too much fabric around the hips for me. Medium was pretty perfect, especially after I applied a tape-bra to get some lift; the dress itself isn’t supportive. In my pre-baby days I could’ve gotten away with just nipple covers. Overall this was so easy to wear, the colors are beautiful and I got tons of compliments. It was even cute with my athletic shoes at the after-party!

SO FLATTERING
Photo doesn’t do it justice. The color is gorgeous in person and I love the way it fits. I felt statuesque when I put it on with heels. Neckline is super flattering but definitely need a little fashion tape to keep the draped side in position. The sleeves are beautiful and the way it drapes in front hides whatever is left of my post-baby belly. Can definitely get away with a normal bra and no shapewear necessary. I tried on the medium and the large because I’m between sizes and the large was perfect. The fit is a bit on the small side- the medium would not zip all the way and was very tight around my hips and thighs. The material is unforgiving. Ultimately I didn’t wear it because it wasn’t the best option for a daytime outdoor wedding but I’ll be looking for another chance to rent or even a reason to buy. It’s just too pretty.

Better than the photos!
This photo doesn't do it justice! Rented for an early afternoon/brunch themed wedding so I liked that this dress had a day-to-night vibe. I also happen to be 4 1/2 months pregnant and starting to show, so the 12 was great. I tried on the 10 about a month & 5 lbs ago and it was perfect, but the 12 was a lot more flattering at my current weight. Top was loose but fashion tape prevented any mishaps. Overall shift skirt & low neckline were flattering--lots of compliments!

Cute and flattering!
I noticed in some pictures there are girls wearing it backwards... This picture is definitely the front as there are darts in the breast area. I loved this dress. It was perfect for a Vegas party without being racy or too revealing. Great for dancing in and comfortable in the heat. This will make me look for neoprene again in the future. Who would've thought?!

Wow comfortable
I wish I had a better photo to do this dress justice. The neoprene is so comfortable and surprisingly flattering. I wore his out celebrating in Las Vegas in May. My only complaint was the lining. The clover canyon dress my friend is wearing didn't have it and we both agreed that was better. It was a bit of a nuisance. Otherwise, amazing dress. One of the few I would consider owning because it's so versatile and comfortable!

Love this. Wish I could keep it!
Dress is a fitted sheath-- extremely flattering and the color is great. I wore it with spanx and a strapless bra-- it was comfortable and easy to wear. It's a well constructed dress and arrived in great shape. It would be great for any occasion, but I wore it to a rehearsal dinner. Could be dressed up with more jewelry or dressed down with casual shoes. Just really an easy choice! Got tons of compliments and I would totally rent it again.

Such a pretty dress!
This dress is well made and fits true to size. The sheath shape is flattering, and the only unforgiving spot is the satin waistband. The top covered the necessary areas very well--obviously no bra (unless you want to wear one of those weird sticky paper ones) is possible but the dress provided enough coverage that I didn't even feel the need to use fashion tape. My husband and friends all loved it, but I will admit that it may have been too much cleavage for some of the older wedding guests tastes. I would definitely recommend it for any other type of event. Super sexy.

So much fun to wear! Word to the wise: buy fashion tape.
I wish I had a better picture of the front of this dress. It was so flattering. Loved it and got a million compliments. It's a forgiving fabric- both the 6 and 8 fit, 8 just a bit more flattering. Color looks great with a nice tan. Easy to move/dance in as well. I was slightly self conscious all night about my chest. I wish I would have just bought some fashion tape so I could be worry free. Other than that I loved this dress and so did my husband ;)

You can't imagine how many compliments I received on this dress! Made me feel so glamorous!!
Rented this dress for my brother-in-laws wedding. It was a fall evening event in the Midwest. I was looking for something stylish but conservative enough to wear in church and around my in-laws and a color to compliment the navy blue tux my husband had to wear as part of the wedding party. This dress fit the bill and was beyond perfect. The fit was flattering and the color was extremely wearable. I don't wear a lot of red but the compliments I received on this dress might change my ways. The lace showed signs of wear in a few places, particularly the armpit area but none of it was visible to others. Helpful hint: I used my hair straightener to flatten out the raw lace edges around the neckline, back opening, and sleeves. This made all the difference in showing off that detail.
