Loved and bought - mind the sizing
Loved this dress so much, ending up buying it during a sale. Got so many compliments too. For sizing it is definitely tighter in the waist than in the bust. Luckily, was able to size up to the 6 and have large enough boobs to fill, but if you’re smaller in the bust than waist something to keep in mind. It looked like a previous renter must have add an extra hole to the belt that wasn’t originally there to get it to close, showing the tightness of the waist. Other than that, love that you can unbutton to make it easier to walk in, although for my event kept all buttons closed and could walk just fine. Very much recommend!

Best black tie wedding dress!!
I fell in love with this dress and received so many compliments on its elegance! Sizing wise I was a bit confused through reviews with the US/UK sizing, but I think it ended up being true to size going with the UK 8R (US 4). I wore pretty high heels and the length ended up being perfect so it didn't drag. Also was incredibly forgiving for such a sleek dress, and any lines didn't show through terribly obvious. Would highly recommend

Standout Wedding Guest Dress
Loved this dress - I received so many compliments and absolutely would recommend renting. Perfect for a not quite warm spring wedding. For sizing, I went with the SR. I have more of an athletic build with broader shoulders and a 32D bust so sizes can range from XS-M and 0-6 for me... here the SR was almost perfect, if not slightly on the shorter side for the short side of the dress. Not so much that it was unwearable, but that I was a little more conscious to pull it down when I stood up.

Perfect spring wedding dress
I received compliments all night on this simple yet beautiful Black Halo sheath. The midi length with the criss-cross opening in the front was the perfect combination, and the dress with breathable and easy to dance in. Already wishing I had another event to rent it for. I was able to get away without wearing a bra which also added to the comfort. Due to how the neckline sits, suggest possibly sizing up with a larger chest otherwise the inside fabric may roll out over itself. Also given my height dresses of this length sometimes worry me, but with a pair of heels I loved it.

Loved - slit comes high but exactly like it shows in pics
Amazing color. Could move in it, definitely on the shorter side but accurate sizing based on picture.

Cute for holidays but short
Loved the color and material, but short and the waist hits higher than I would have liked. Still wore because it looked fine, but even being 5'4 with a short torso, it was short and had to size up. Usually wear a 4, but based on other reviews decided on the 6.

Compliments all night long
To this day I still haven't worn a dress that has received as many compliments as this did. It was well made, loved the asymmetrical cut at the bottom, and accentuated the right areas. I liked the fit, but it was definitely on the tighter size, so I suggest sizing up if you prefer a looser fit. I got both a 4 and a 6 as my back up size. Went with the 4, but it was nice to compare the two. Will definitely rent again and even have considered buying.

Perfect for office casual or business work environment
Loved the different take on a classic work shirt with the criss-cross in the front. It was easily paired with dress pants and heels or dark jeans, depending on the work environment. It is shorter in the front, so if you have a longer torso may need to size up.
