Great winter wedding dress
Beautiful dress. A little long (I’m 5’5) but wore it with heels and that solved the problem. Fit very comfortably. Lots of cleavage, so keep that in mind if you don’t want that. Tons of compliments! Would rent again.

Cute and comfy dress
This dress fit well, but I'm glad I read reviews and sized up! The waist was quite tight, but I had no issues with the larger size being too large even on my petite shoulders. I'm usually between a 6 and an 8, and I wore a 10 in this dress. That said, it was flowy and comfortable, even chasing my pre-school and toddler-aged daughters who were flower girls in the wedding I wore it to. Pretty spring or summer wedding guest dress!

Show stopping dress!
This is the most beautiful dress I've ever worn, and it garnered compliments from friends and complete strangers on the street. The fabric is absolutely gorgeous, and the 6 fit me like a glove. I'd say it runs true to size, but I'm closer to an 8 than a 6 these days, so it might run a tad large. I hope I have an occasion to rent this one again!

Very flattering cut
Loved this dress for a summer evening wedding and got lots of compliments! It's sturdy material, so you don't need a slip, but it's thin enough that I didn't feel hot and sweaty despite it being July in Chicagoland. There's a snap in the strap to hold your bra strap in place, which was an awesome plus. A little roomy in the shoulders for my petite-ish frame, but since I could clip the straps to my bra, that wasn't an issue! I'd definitely rent this one again, and I'll watch for it to go on sale!

Great dress for a garden wedding
I rented this dress for a wedding and it was comfy and cute! I'm between a 6 and an 8, and I wore the 8. The 6 would have been okay, but the 8 was more forgiving on my postpartum waist! The only peeve is that, like most dresses, the length is better suited for someone taller than I am. But it was still super cute! The back has a cut-out that required me to wear a strapless bra, though I probably could have figured out a way to pin the straps.
