Order it!
I LOVED this dress. It’s sexy but not too sexy. Very fitted but also super comfortable because the material is stretchy. There’s a generous slit in the back which makes it easy to walk but it’s not revealing. Fits TTS. I’m 5’6” 155 lb and medium was perfect. I wore too a black tie optional wedding and it was great. Would definitely rent it again.

Pretty but not super comfortable
I ordered this for a black tie optional wedding. It fit on the small side in my opinion. It was pretty tight throughout the body. I’m 5’6” 155 lb and the M was tight. I’m not sure if the L would’ve worked better or that’s just the fit of the dress. The other issue is that you can’t really lift your arms and the slight is quite high. It’s pretty but runs small and is not super comfortable. If comfort is the goal, don’t order this dress.

Pretty and simple
I ordered this for a black tie optional wedding and it was pretty. It fit TTS. I’m 5’6” and 155 lb and the 8 fit well. I didn’t end up wearing it because I liked a different option better so I can’t speak to how well it wears throughout a night but it was pretty, simple, and versatile. Nothing special

Fun and different gown
I wore this to a friend's black tie wedding and loved it!! It was comfortable, fun, and looked great on. Easy to dance in, though sometimes my shoes got caught on the bottom with walking (there's a lot of fabric down there). Got tons of compliments! The one thing I will say about sizing is that it runs small in the rib cage. I am a 4/6 and ordered S and M (as a back up size) ended up wearing the medium because it was so tight in the rib cage. It's low-cut but has mesh in the middle so still felt covered. Overall great dress, would definitely recommend renting!

Unflattering
I rented this and another Saloni dress for a party and ended up wearing the other one. I found this one to be unflattering. The middle section is baggy and the ruffles made me look wider than I am. The back is very pretty but overall the fit was just weird and unflattering.

Didn't wear
I didn't wear these. Found them to be a little gaudy. Maybe just not my style but wouldn't recommend.

Perfect dress for a summer wedding
Rented this for a wedding and loved it! Got tons of compliments. It runs true to size, but I would size down if you're between sizes. I usually wear 4/6 and the 4 fit great. It's tight in the mid-section so gives a nice silhouette, very flattering. Would definitely rent it again

Loved these, would rent again
Really beautiful hoops, go with everything. They're larger than I was anticipating, ~1 inch diameter. Slightly heavy but not too bad. Wore them multiple times.

Too tight
I know this top is meant to be tight, but it was so tight and cropped that I didn't wear. Recommend sizing up

Cute dress for date night
Wore this on vacation to dinner with my husband and it was super cute. Pretty low-cut so had to wear sticky bra, which was fine since I'm small-chested. It's also quite short so wouldn't have been comfortable wearing to work or even some events where the attire was a bit more conservative. I wore the 10 (usually wear a size 4/6) which fit fine, was a little loose in the chest/torso, but don't think I could've gone any smaller because of the length (I'm 5'6")

Didn't wear, gaps too much
I ordered this item for a warm-weather vacation, and didn't end up wearing it because the chest gapes so much, I knew I would be adjusting it all night. The color is beautiful and I would say if anything it runs large. I'm usually a S in tops and they didn't have it so I ordered the XS which would've been fine except for the gaping chest area. Granted, I am very small-chested (34A) so maybe it would've stayed in place with some boob tape on someone with a larger chest. Very pretty color and really pretty in person, but just didn't work for me.
