Formal and fun
Nice fit, beautiful dress. Perfect for a wedding with lots of food, drinks and dancing. Was comfortable all night.

Too small for fuller busts
I got this as a replacement when another dress didn't work. The pattern is fun, but the ruffles at the bottom are super puffy. Also, it wouldn't zip over my chest. If you have a fuller bust, size up.

Super cute, but odd sizing
I ordered this dress in my normal size and a size smaller because the reviews said it runs large. Yes, the top definitely runs large! It was too big on both the 14 and 16 and I am not small-chested. I went with the 16 because it was more comfortable overall and used safety pins to tighten the top and dress tape to keep the straps in place. But no one could tell and I got compliments. Worth the rent, but size down for your backup size and be prepared the top may still need a little creative fix.

Favorite rental yet
Gorgeous dress, perfect for an evening outdoor wedding. Fits well, comfortable, and the color is so bright and beautiful. I was between sizes at the time so I did size up from my normal size to be safe. It fit nicely, so that was a good call.

Perfect for a party with an orange dress code!
This dress was perfect for an Opening Night at the track event where we were encouraged to wear orange. The fabric was heavier, but not hot. The dress did run big - I had to pin the straps because the arm holes were roomy. I would definitely size down in this one.

Good for summer!
I rented this as a backup dress, and while I didn't end up wearing it, it was flattering and cute. Shows a little cleavage if you're busty.

Definitely a statement necklace
I received this as my mystery bling. To be honest, it didn't really match either dress I rented so there was no way I could wear it to the wedding where I intended to wear it. Luckily, I was able to wear it to drinks the night before the wedding and it was beautiful! Not heavy, a perfect statement piece, and a pretty color (it's lighter than the picture.) I would have kept it if I could!

Love the sparkle
I have to say that everyone loved this dress and I got a lot of compliments. I would have given it five stars except for a couple things. First, it definitely runs big. I could have gone down at least one size. I wore the smaller of the two sizes I selected, which is my normal dress size, and it was still a little too large. That being said, it was comfy and I did not experience the underarm scratchiness from the sequins that other reviewers mentioned, perhaps because it was a little roomy. The second thing that kept me from giving it five stars was that this particular dress had some fading of the sequins. There was a drastic, and I mean drastic, color difference in the two sizes. One was navy and the other was much lighter with more of a silver sheen. Both were pretty, so it wasn't a big deal, but if you are expecting navy, the smaller size is not navy. Oh, and I was able to wear a normal bra with some strategically placed fashion tape, so don't let the open back scare you if you have a larger chest.
