Compliments galore and pockets!
Okay, so I gave this four stars mostly because it is very beautiful and all night long I received compliments. It's easy to move in and the deep pockets meant no need to carry a clutch. The cons: I sized up according to other reviews but that was a big mistake. That might be necessary for those blessed with larger busts, but I was pulling up the size 2 all night as it was, the bigger size was unwearable. The dress was frayed along the top and bottom and there was a big snag. Granted you couldn't see that at night, but if worn for a daytime wedding or whatever, the wear and tear would show. The boning poked me unmercifully. I reinforced my skin with large bandaids where it dug into me to prevent absolute misery. That worked, but sad to have to do that. This was my least enjoyable rental experience to date, but it is a gorgeous gown.

Very comfortable dress for an evening of drinking and dining
I loved this dress on the hanger. However, even though it fit amazing on the hips and shoulders, it was really baggy through the middle and seemed to stretch out as the night went on. I wish I'd sized down for my backup instead of sizing up as suggested just to be able to see how the extra small fit in the waist. Otherwise, very flattering and comfortable, especially if you have a curvy backside.

If I had a dollar for every compliment I received, the dress would have paid for itself 3 times over
As others have mentioned this dress runs a bit large. I am a solid 2, but went for the smaller size (38) in this dress. That being said, this dress is adorable and fun and flirty. I felt cute and like the life of the party. It wasn't too tight anywhere, so I felt comfortable eating and drinking all night long. I wore this on New Year's Eve to the symphony (and out to eat after) and felt that it wasn't too dressy or too sexy for the occasion. Could easily be dressed up or down. Highly recommend.

It was very windy. The breezes made the dress flow beautifully.
Loved this dress. Happy I ordered the backup size because that is the one I ended up wearing. The 2 was way too baggy in the chest for me and it showed a lot of wear. I had wanted to wear the dress the way the model does but my strapless bra showed through. Overall very pleased with this rental. Felt very feminine and goddess-like. It is quite long, but I wore super high heels so it wasn't too big an issue. Would be perfect for a summer wedding.
