Wore this dress for my company holiday party. I had a baby 3 months ago so I wasn't as sure how the sizes and cuts I would normally go for would fit. This was the right choice. It was fun and flashy and didn't hug in all the right places, but also didn't just hang on my body like a big bag. A bit of a poof on the shoulders give this dress a little more character and style and the shimmer is really beautiful - more than just a regular sequin dress, has a delicate texture to it. I does run a little on the small side so size up slightly. Was able to wear a regular bra and Spanx underneath with no problem.

I wore this 6 weeks postpartum and it was great for holding it all together and feeling comfortable in my skin. Wore without a bra and the top is a little roomy so I wore the smaller size (4R) so that it wouldn't gap around the sides. I wore Spanx underneath and found that the material under the lace would ride up and get a little twisted. Even though that was a little irritating, overall I liked the dress and would recommend it. Runs true to size.

Wedding accessories are CRAZY expensive so I can't recommend going with rented jewelry more. I rented 2 headpieces, 2 bracelets, 2 sets of earrings, and a belt so that I would have choices once everything arrived a couple of days before the wedding. I rented all of it for less than I would have bought one piece for so it was a great choice for me. I ended up going with this headband and I had my hair stylist make it look more like a piece than a headband. it was a bit loose but never actually came off of my head and I danced all night. I'd rather have it be a little loose than too tight and give me a headache. Great size and statement. Went with studded earrings because dangly earrings were too much all together.

Wore this dress for my wedding rehearsal dinner. I am 5'8" and about 135 lbs (slim but not fit/toned). The 4 fit better in the body (I am small in the ribs and have wider hips) but the sleeves were too tight on my arms so I ended up wearing the 6, which fit pretty well also. I think the dress was new and may not have been previously worn so the sleeves were still very tight and rigid. I didn't end up wearing a bra (more because I was running late and had already gotten my arms into the sleeves) but definitely could have worn a strapless or stick-ons (def had the room) but braless was fine too. I almost wasn't able to wear this dress because of the tight sleeves in both sizes but it worked out okay and they loosened up a bit throughout the night so I would just take that into consideration if thinking about renting it. Otherwise, it's a great dress and I received a lot of compliments. Not as shimmery as in the model pictures but fantastic pattern. One last note, I didn't wear Spanx because the underneath material of the dress kept getting twisted due to the friction between materials as I moved and then all of the dress lines were off. This also ended up being fine as well since there is a texture to the dress and the lines give you a great defined, flattering waistline. More comfortable without the Spanx anyway!
