Cute and bright
Wore this on a first date - a girl sitting next to me even commented on how cute it was! Great for a summer day.

Not very flattering
It was flowy and comfy but I don't think it did anything for me. Specifically changed out of it for a date as I felt frumpy.

Red Party Theme Perfection
Wore this to a 'red party' and it was a hit! Fits great although it is VERY short on me...as in, okay to stand but not to sit (pretty sure I flashed my friend at dinner). Worked great for the dance party and casino afterwards.

Fine but fun
I'm not in love with it - wore it a few times but wouldn't say it's super flattering. BUT it was great for a big dinner as it's flowy and you don't have to worry about it being tight. For the tall girls - it's quite short in the front (not okay for work but fine otherwise) but good coverage in the back.

Feminine Mystique
I wore this out to a few dinners as well as one night to a club and a casino. It doesn't have a clubby vibe but worked well from dinner into post-dinner events. Made me feel beautiful!

I'm a 36C/D and they were on display. Yes, got a few disapproving looks. But also made out with the bride's brother, so...success?

Beautiful dress fit for a formal occasion
I'm wider in the hips with a smaller bust, so this dress fit perfectly on bottom but was a bit loose on top (I wore a strapless bra to fill in some space). I don't think you need a bra with this dress if you can fill it in, though. The ruching is a bit weird and it's not very slimming, but it's still a very pretty dress. I probably won't rent this one again, though.

Beware if you are tall!
They ended up not having the dress in my size (8) so I got the back-up size only (6), which doesn't work if you're tall. The arm was too snug because of my long torso, so it made the dress asymmetrical on the bottom. So just be sure not to size down if you're a tall girl! I wish I could have tried on in my size - would have been perfect for a wedding.

Too boxy
I thought it looked like I was wearing a big bag - no shape to it. I ended up returning it and buying something to wear.
