Showstopping dress
First, and most importantly - this dress is made for large chested women, even in smaller sizes. I have a smaller chest and had to use two safety pins to avoid my entire bra showing. Other than that, it was great. The material was very forgiving and graces curves comfortably. The dress itself is extremely sparkly and pretty. Don't wear this if you are afraid of being the center of attention! It's an eye-catcher, for sure. I wore it to a Vegas-themed wedding, and it worked perfectly.

Great transition to Fall
This dress was cute and extremely true to size. It fit perfectly everywhere. Girls with a bigger bust should definitely size up. If you're an hourglass figure, it might not work very well. But I loved it! The draping was subtle and classy. I loved the navy color of the dress. It definitely has a sparkly undertone, as other reviewers have mentioned. Normally it would have caused me to accesorize with silver jewelry, but I liked how the model did gold. I did that too and thought it worked. This is perfect for a fall or winter wedding or event.

Definitely an eye-catcher.
This is an expensive-looking dress and is clearly quality-made. I loved all the bright colors and it fit pretty well. It would look even better on girls with a small waist and bigger chest. I wore a strapless bra with it, but you might be able to go without because of the boning and lining. The band in the back was helpful to define a waist, and I almost wished it had gone all the way around to the front. Overall, very happy with this rental!

Told I was "best dressed!"
I've never ever received so many compliments on one dress in one evening!! I wore it to a charity event in March and it was perfect seasonally. As many reviewers have said, it runs a little bit small. I came close to wearing the 4, but ended up going with the 2, as it fit better in the shoulders. If you are over 5'5", be careful of the short length! Skin-color bras will probably work; otherwise, you might have to go strapless. It fits pretty close to the hips. The best part was when a woman (who I didn't know well) approached me at the end of the night and said, "you are the best dressed here!"
