Too long, too bad!
I love the color. And the bust area and the racer back were totally flattering. I am 5'2" and this dress hit me mid calf… It just didn't look right. I didn't end up wearing this dress.

Super cute and comfortable!
This dress is really cute and comfortable. It was a little bit difficult zipping up and very fitted for a size 2... but it was flattering. It's not one of those dresses that hold you in, so you will need to wear a bra and not wear this on a day where you feel bloated or "fat." It has a classic cut from the waist up making it fun to accessorize. If you have broad shoulders, beware!

Fun and flirty cocktail dress!
PROS: I love the detailing on the stress. It fit well. I liked the length. It's a perfect dress to show off your legs! I didn't need to wear a bra with this dress, as it held my boobs in place really well. It was loose enough around the midsection and hips to allow yourself to relax and breathe and not have to suck it in! lol. The lace is sexy and flirty. Very stylish! CONS: It's very hard to zip up the back! Also, I wish the slip underneath was not beige... not a total dealbreaker but it would look a lot better if it was black.

Sexy and slimming!
PROS: Sexy dress. Great cut. Awesome color. Fits true to size. CONS: Material is unforgiving and doesn't hide your flaws.

Classy red dress!
OK, the other reviews stating that the dress runs big are definitely true. I am a size 2 or 4 but in this dress I ordered a 0 and it fit perfect. You definitely have to wear a bra and some kind of spanx because the fabric is polyester and thin. It will show your cellulite and your nipples. I did like that the dress was tailored pretty well, and provided a little bit of movement in the torso and hips area. I really don't like wearing skin tight dresses to work, so this dress is awesome in that regard!

Great dress for work!
This dress fit perfectly. Not too much cleavage showed and it hugged and all the right places without being too revealing. It is a little long, but I didn't mind the length at all. It was also really great color!

So cute!!!
Fit great! The only detail I didn't like where the button is facing into your side. Most buttons face outward. Other than that, I felt very comfortable on this stress.

Va-va voom!
I'm 5'2 and 120 pounds with curves and D size breasts. I got a size 4 but it fit like a size 2. I squeezed into the dress and it was hard to zip up. It looked great! I will say, if you have any body insecurities or areas you want to hide, this dress might be a pass for you or you might want to size up. It hugs the body nicely, accentuating your curves and definitely highlighting your cleavage. I did not need to wear a bra with this dress but I did wear spanx since the material was a little less forgiving than I prefer. Overall, it was a great dress! Super sexy.

Nice work dress
The dress fit great. I love the color! Unfortunately the dress came a bit wrinkled and it was the kind of material that required a steamer to get out the wrinkles.

Love the color!
I loved the color and design.. Nice fabric but not much stretch at all, so elected not to wear the dress for dancing at the wedding reception. Got lots of compliments. True to size. The only thing I didn't like about the dress, was the hem at the midsection. It created a bulge and didn't allow the dress to lay flat and smooth against the body.

Sexy and chic!
I'm a size 2/4 and ordered this dress in a size 4. I'm so glad I did because it fit like a snug size 2! For all you sisters out there with a rockin' bod, here's the perfect dress to show off your hard work. I loved the slit detail and the cut on the sleeves. I was afraid the arm design would cut into my chest and give me a weird bulge but it didn't. I also didn't wear a bra since the dress was very supportive and held the girls in nicely. The color was GORGEOUS and it was easy to accessorize with this dress. My boyfriend loved the dress and said I looked HOT!
