I rented this for a wedding and it was such a fun dress to wear! I am busty (40H) and I showed a little more cleavage than I would've liked, but the dress stayed in place super well and I didn't need fashion tape or anything like that. The waistband does not have much stretch to it, so you want to make sure you are getting the right size. I'd say it was still a comfortable dress overall!

I wanted something a little different for a wedding, so I went with this pretty, floor-length, off the shoulder gown. I read SO many reviews on this dress, so I knew going into it that the sleeves would be a little tight and restricting, and that was accurate! I couldn't move my arms very much, but like I said, I was mentally prepared for beauty rather than function. :-) I am pretty busty (40H) and have chubby arms, and I liked that I was still able to wear a strapless bra with the 20WR and be able to zip it up! Overall, it was a great dress!

Usually when I'm shopping for a plus-size dress, I'm looking for something flattering that can cover my arms (my problem area) and that I can wear a bra with. Extra points for a little extra length and being comfortable. Well this dress checked off ALL the boxes! The color and print were perfect for a summer wedding I attended; it was also light-weight and great material for sitting outdoors. I loved the puffed sleeves that totally hid my jiggly arms and THE STRETCH. Oh, the stretch! This dress had plenty of give, which meant that as a size 18/20 lady, I was very comfortable in the 2X! This dress was perfect for what I needed and honestly, it's casual enough that it could also be worn for Sunday brunch, too.

I read tons of reviews on this dress before renting, and just like most others, I definitely had to use fashion tape so keep the cleavage from being way too much. With that being said, I LOVED the dress! the color is absolutely beautiful, the way the dress falls is stunning, and it has great movement. I would have loved to wear a 16WR instead of the 16R, just for a little more room in the fitted slip underneath the dress. It was a little snug and I'd have to pull it down every time I stood up or walked a little, because it would bunch. I love that this fit me, since I am plus-sized and have full breasts. I was even able to wear my heavy duty spanx underneath without it showing anywhere! I got so many compliments!
