Fun and Flirty
For perfectly everywhere but bust- there was some room to fill up and I didn't have it to do so. Still wore it as the fabric laid nice and could hardly tell it was roomy up top.

Adorable
Comfortable, cotton feel, definitely elevated, fabric is only thing that feels casual about the gown. Hits close to floor with a 2" heel on.

Tailored or really small??
A few times I've found people have seen garments to fit them. Not sure if this is the case with this dress. I sized up with this and I couldn't button this at the bodice- off a few inches! My waist down fit perfectly. This is a beautiful dress, sizing is weird or like I said, tailored. I wish people wouldn't see things they rent to custom fit themselves.

Weird fit.
The body of the gown laid awkwardly. Bunched in the front and by the zipper in back. The neck was tight.

I rented this to try out dresses for my son's upcoming wedding.
Fit perfectly. I am 145, 5'7, 34C. It is extremely comfortable. Unfortunately, my husband did not care for the ruffle. So we ruled this one out as a choice for my son's wedding.

Stunning Red Dress- fit the evening perfectly
The chest area was a little tight- with the side zip that typically happens on me. Know things fits more snug with a side zip garment. Rich beautiful fabric. Color is close to raspberry- not a true red. Gorgeous! One of my faves.

Tried it on and took it off immediately. It's huge. Feels like and x-large. Back it goes

This dress is a hit. The cut and tailoring on this dress screams red carpet.
The length is on the short side, but makes up for the conservative line of the top. The ribcage seems a little smaller than it should be. The sleeves make the dress! Gorgeous.

I had men asking me where I got it. They wanted to buy the dress for their wives. Cool dress.
It fits like a glove. Sometime would ride up, but I blame that on my undergarments.

Amazing dress. Received compliment after compliment. No need for undergarments.
Loved this dress. I felt tucked in in all the right places and was still very comfortable. The only trick was making sure the zipper lined up where it needed to in the back.

I ordered this in 4L and 6L. I went with the 4L and I could have used a little more length. I had to wear 2.5 inch heels with it and I usually wear 4 inch heels. I received SO many complements on this dress. The color is a beautiful blue, really indescribable. With dark brown hair, it's amazing. The only frustrating part, the dress was frayed very badly on all the seams. The finish work on the dress was poorly done. There is a black bias tape edge that runs on the inside edge of the dress at the hem, slit, and collar. All of these areas were frayed badly. I had to take scissors to it to cut off all the strings. The collar of the dress had the black seaming tape coming off it completely. POORLY made, but once you do some work to it and make sure it lays correctly with fashion tape, its a knock out. I would give it 5 stars if I didn't have to work so hard to make it great.
