Need to be flat chested
This is the least revealing photo I could take. The dress fit perfectly almost everywhere else but the cups are demi shaped and extremely small. Couldn't wear even if I was confident having the girls muffin top everywhere.

Great dress! Shows all imperfections so get smooth spanx (unlike me) to make sure there's no seams showing.

Fabulous find
Wore this for my engagement photos because I felt so confident in it. Absolutely gorgeous dress! One quality concern was the clasp at the neck - I had to clasp it upside down/twisted to get it to stay.

Great Bach Dress
Super flattering little white dress. The straps are not adjustable so highly recommend fashion tape to keep the top where it needs to be.

I loved this dress but I didn't end up wearing because the structure was just too much for my curvy frame. Definitely would be more flattering on sizes <10.

High Quality
The fabric, design, and structure of this dress is fabulous. Super elegant but heads up that the sizing is small - def size up.

Tight!
This dress is stunning but sizing is super small and the material is very uncomfortable and scratchy.

Not for curvy gals
Two issues: 1) of you have anything resembling a booty this is going to ride up/feel very short 2) there are boob indentations closer to the armpits than they should be. Regardless if you fill the dress out or not, it's just not shaped correctly.

This was a classy yet light and fun dress! I didn't end up wearing to my event because I was looking for something a little more formal but it was so comfortable!

Classy
I rented a handful of dresses for a formal bridal shower. This didn't end up being the winner because it felt too stiff but it photographs well and was fitting for the occasion.

Not very white
I love the cut of this too but I ultimately rented expecting it to be bright white. It's more muted and almost an extremely light grey. I'd say it's probably from wear more so than the actual color. Fit was ok but for a 10 it was snug in the chest (34DD).

No BRA!
Loved this deep red color and gorgeous details! I dressed this down with jeans and sandals and dressed it up with black pants and heels - both worked! Also, the detailing was great and allowed me to hide the fact I wasn't wearing a bra.

Wow - color, fit, and formality
Spring wedding perfection. This light lilac color is stunning, the fabric is thick so it didn't wrinkle even when folded in a suitcase, and the cut of the dress was formal yet extremely flattering. It fit me a little tight up top but it felt a little loose in the hips (not that I was complaining). I am considering renting one size down and purchasing!

Boob poof
When I rent pleats I worry about the dress being unflattering. The high quality fabric and color is actually surprisingly fattening BUT there's something wrong with the chest. I never have issues filling out dresses in the boob area (maybe that was the problem?) but it wouldn't lay flat in the middle. Made me look like I had a saggy middle boob. Maybe the photo doesn't show it but I didn't wear it for the wedding as I planned because it felt too odd up top.

Stunning detail
This dress was well fitted in the chest and even though it didn't hug my hips it was still exceptionally flattering. I didn't end up wearing for the wedding I went to but I loved it!

Unflattering
This came with tags on and I was so excited to love it because the color is gorgeous. I really don't want dresses to hug me but I wasn't expecting this to balloon the way it did. Maybe a super casual event dress but just wasn't for me.
