Fits perfectly! So comfortable!
I absolutely loved this dress for a formal(ish) event. It hugged in all the right places and was very comfortable for the entire evening. The lace does not give much in the arms and I was afraid I’d need to size up but the large fit perfectly. And the thumb holes gave it a fun vibe! A great dress for winter events!

Joysel Silken Lace Dress
AFRM
Size Worn: L
Usual Size: 10
Height: 5' 6"
Weight: 180lbs
Bust: 38D
Runs small
I got this dress as a replacement when my original rental was suddenly not available. I am a 10 and couldn’t get the zipper halfway up my back. I would have probably needed a 14 to get the zipper closed but didn’t love the style enough to request a different size. Absolutely no give to the material and the draping on the arms/shoulders was awkward but could have been because the dress was wayyyy too small for me. Best for a petite build.

Off The Shoulder Gown With Pleats
Badgley Mischka
Size Worn: 10R
Usual Size: 10

Bust: 38D
Beautiful dress! Comfortable, curve hugging and elegant.
I got this dress as a last minute replacement when my original rental was suddenly unavailable. I was pleasantly impressed by the fit and elegance of this dress. I’m a 10 with broad shoulders/back and the large fit perfectly. My husband wasn’t impressed by the dress on the hanger but completely changed his mind once I put it on. The slit is high up the thigh so be prepared for that and some of the sequins catch between the arms and the body of the dress but not a huge deal. Slightly unforgiving in the mid-section but easily corrected with the right shape wear. A perfect dress for a winter formal affair.

Kiera Sequin Column Gown
Dress The Population

Comfort and elegance!
This dress was perfect for a December wedding. Sizing was spot on and the material has a nice amount of stretch if needed. The 10 fit like a glove and I was so comfortable all evening. Received several compliments on the style and color. Highly recommend this dress!

Macey Dress
Reiss
Size Worn: 10
Usual Size: 10
Height: 5' 6"

Bust: 38D
Loved this dress but wasn’t right for my body type. Didn’t wear.
This dress broke my heart. I absolutely loved the style and couldn’t wait to show off my shoulders. I typically wear a size 10 but I have a larger chest (38D) and a very broad muscular back and neither the 10 or 12 would zip up the entire way. I requested a 14 as a last resort and while it zipped up my back the body became too big and made me look boxy. There was no way I could wear it and feel comfortable. So anyone that is broader up top (back/chest) this is not the best dress for you. Another issue was the zipper on the 14. It took 3 people to zip it up, not because of size but the fabric getting caught in the zipper and making it difficult to pull.

Sentido Dress

Size Worn: 14R
Usual Size: 10

Bust: 38D
Wasn’t able to close the zipper!
Unfortunately I based my sizing off other reviews that said the dress ran a little large. Not the case for me. I have an athletic build with a broad back and I couldn’t get the zipper closed on the 10 (my usual size). There is no give to the material so couldn’t even try to stretch my way into it. I was really looking forward to wearing this beautiful dress so it was a disappointment that it wasn’t a good fit for me.

This dress was the hit of the evening. I received so many compliments!
I have a really broad back/bigger chest and the dress was slightly tight across my back/chest. I had to get creative in zipping it up but one it was on it was perfect! Paired with long gold earrings and gold shoes/purse. I wish I could wear this dress to every occasion!
