This dress was surprisingly comfortable. I received compliments all night long. I liked that there were cutouts but that they were understated. Also, a huge plus is that you can wear a normal bra with the dress! I wore it with silver shoes. Sizing was true to size. I'm usually a 2 or 4 petite. The 2 fit a bit tighter which normally I like, but because of the cutouts it was not as attractive (there was a bit of 'bulge'--ick!). So I wore the 4 and it was great!

This was a fun dress to wear. I probably should have worn the 2, but the straps were SO long that at least the 0 the straps were a little less ridiculous. I knew I wasn't going to be sitting down much at this cocktail party so I wore it anyways, but it's a definite drawback to the dress. That being said, it was a pretty color and the neckline was very flattering! Sorry the pic isn't great...it was the only one we got that night!

This fit like a glove. The 0R was perfect; in length and everything else. It skimmed the body so nicely. I'm normally a size 2 or 4 in dresses, so I think sizing down was a good idea. It was so, comfortable and lightweight, and the compliments were never ending! Oh, and it travels well too..a total winner.

So I tried (in vain) for a long time to try to use safety pins to fix the 'peekaboo' effect that the top of this dress unfortunately gives. I wore it to a rehearsal dinner and after party and it was comfortable and pretty, but it was not worth the stress about over-exposing myself the whole night. I don't even think fashion tape would help. It's really too bad, because it's a great dress otherwise.

I wore this to a wedding in Florida in February. The dress was pretty, and the picture here (and maybe even my pic) doesn't show the true fabric and color of the dress. It is woven with flecks of silver, and it is not the purple it looks here. It is MUCH closer to a colbalt blue in person! It was still pretty, but I was really liking the more purplish-hue it appears to be on the site. I would say it's flattering at the top, but it is sort of a babydoll style so it's possible that it can make you appear a bit larger than you are (but is really cute!). It's a nice lightweight fabric and is lined nicely in the chest area, which I appreciated. I just wish I had realized that there was the silver threading, because I ended up having to buy silver shoes at the last minute to accessorize!

So this dress is really cute, but as many reviewers have mentioned, the size 4 has a really messed up hem. I tried to fix it with safety pins (the fabric tape from my fit kit did NOT work, as the material is too heavy) and was not too successful. That being said, it was fun to wear and I got lots of compliments. The 4 fit perfectly. I accessorized with a red belt to give more shape :-)

I actually thought both the 4 and 6 fit me, but ended up wearing the 6. This dress is so comfortable, it's amazing! It is also more flattering than I thought it might be (I was worried I would look shapeless). The sequins were in good condition on both sizes, and my ony complaint is that i wish it was a tad shorter (i'm only 5'2, so the 6 came down to graze the top of my knee.) This was my first time 'renting the runway' and i am SO glad I did! I styled it with red nail polish and red satin shoes (i know, it sounds garish, but it actually looked really sweet and nice!).

I rented this on a last minute whim to wear on NYE. I was probably between the 4 and the 6, but I chose to wear the 4 because the 6 was too big in the chest and looked kind of silly. I also chose to wear the spaghetti straps that came with it because as other reviewers have said, you can't really wear a bra with this, so the straps hold the girls up :-) I had a lot of fun wearing this...I was just at a low key NYE thing with 5 of my friends (we drank, cooked, and played games) but it was great to have something like this to wear! If I had had more time to plan, I would have accessorized with different shoes, but like I said, this was a last minute rental!

I absolutely loved wearing this dress. It is so comfortable (minus the boning that sticks out in the size 4--all the other reviewers are right!) and flattering. As others have also said, it looks somewhat 'plain' in photos but is stunning in person. I am usually a 4 or a 6, but the 6 was slightly too big and actually made me look bigger. The 4 was perfect! Also, in terms of length, I wore shoes that were about 2.5 inches high and it was not too long or too short. People did step on the train a few times, but it was worth it!
