Great dress, lots of compliments!
I loved this dress. Got compliments all night. I was worried the color would wash me out given how pale I am right now (thanks SF winter) but everyone actually said the color looked great on me. Fit was great. I wore a strapless bra with it but if you have a chest on the smaller side you could probably get away with not wearing one. Thick fabric that does a great job of smoothing everything. And the slit was perfect for sitting down - not too revealing since it's more on the side than the front.

fits perfectly and so comfy!
I would wear this everywhere if I could. Already looking to rent it again. Super comfortable material that is heavy enough to hang well but lightweight and jersey-like. The cutout is in the perfect spot to be a little spicy without being at all inappropriate. Super flattering! Obsessed!

Beautiful but stretched out
This dress is much prettier in person - the red is much darker and so the flowers pop more. It does come a bit wrinkled and it says not to iron it, so I just didn't worry about it. My biggest issue, though, is that the elastic is extremely stretched out. I couldn't even wear it off the shoulder without pinning it heavily in the back, because when the shoulders start to slip down, the back COMPLETELY falls down to your waist. Not ideal. I was able to wear it with the back pinned, but you can see from the photos I ended up having to wear it on my shoulders after a little while. I think this was probably great originally but now that the dress has been worn so many times, it's too stretched out to wear.

Beautiful, but SUPER LONG
This dress was so pretty in person - the pictures really don't do the colors justice. It's gorgeous! The colors make it really easy to pair with jewelry. The fit on the top is really flattering for anyone. I wore a strapless bra underneath to help with a little "lift" but can easily see how you could get away with not wearing one. I did find myself pulling it up all night, and can see in a few of the dancing photos my bra poking out, but I preferred that over anything else poking out! ;) The smaller size probably would have been less of an issue but I felt like that squeezed the area under my arms too much and wasn't as flattering. There is so much fabric on the bottom - makes the dress drape beautifully, as has been mentioned in other reviews, but it's incredibly long. I hung it up in my closet next to my other long dresses and it was probably 6 inches longer at least. Not sure how anyone could wear this and not trip over it, even with really tall shoes, unless they're already like 5'8" or taller. I'm in a wheelchair so I always deal with dresses being too long, but this was comical. I had to tie the dress up in the back with an elastic so it wouldn't be dragging on the floor...luckily no one could see!

So many compliments!
The colors of this dress are really beautiful in person. I wore this for a birthday wine tasting day and I got compliments everywhere we went. It was pretty hot where we were and I will say the dress is a bit heavy and warm, but I think I would have been hot no matter what I was wearing. The fabric feels very high quality and it drapes really nicely. The length seemed normal - I'm in a wheelchair so it's hard to tell because everything feels too long, but it was more manageable than other long dresses I have rented. Great rental! Would rent again!

loved this! got so many compliments and so flattering
Absolutely loved this dress. Has a nice liner so it drapes really nicely (and if you happen to be wearing it somewhere super hot, like I was, no one will know how much you're sweating: added plus). I got away with wearing a regular bra with it because the back panel fits right over the bra back, but the front does have a little bit of padding so if you have a smaller chest and need less lift/support you could go without. 4 fit me well - the material is stretchy so it hugs the curves but is not restricting or uncomfortable. The top was proportionately a little smaller than the bottom, so if you're larger up top, I'd say size up.

Wore this to a chilly outside graduation - looked great and kept me warm!
I loved this dress...I got it to wear to an outdoor graduation and party where the weather was going to be in the upper 50s/low 60s. It was the perfect combination of springy and warm - the colors are really pretty (much more mint green in person, as others have said) but the material is heavy and very warm. The dress and the liner are stretchy, so it will hug your curves. It fit me great - my only complaint was that the arms were pretty tight, but I'm a wheelchair user and have more muscular arms for my frame than most people, so that problem is likely unique to me. Highly recommend this dress!
