Ordered up 2 sizes and bust too small!
I read the reviews and upped my size to an 8. This dress was still about 3 inches away from buttoning at the bust and ribs. I am a 34ddd. It wasn’t even close to working out. Bummer.

I didn’t get to wear this one as it was too tight at the chest.
It is gorgeous and I’ll get the next size up!!

I’m typically an 2-4 but have big boobs. This 4 was too snug at the ribs to zip up.

Not for taller girls. Cute though!
At 5’9.5” this was too short in the body. I wasn’t able to wear it.

This was a wonderful work dress. The wrap stayed closed easily enough and everywhere I went someone complimented it. Fun!

I will rent again, super cute dress!
The heaver material made this so no bra was needed. I wasn't hot at an outdoor party in Texas. The purple and yellow lighten up the black and loved it!

Super cute dress for work. I would size up if you are tall for length in torso and over all.
I was still able to wear this cute dress. It was just about an inch too short in the torso for my frame. I do not wear a lot of color but this was way more fun than basic black.

Cute Farm Rio print and shape. Needs a belt!
I wanted to love this one, but it does not arrive with the belt. I typically am OK but this was too snug to wear in the chest, 34ddd. I just needed to size up and prepare for a belt.

Lovely DVF wrap that I wish I owned!
This dress has a lovely flowy fabric with soft draping. I am rather straight through the waist and this actually gave me shape vs a rectangle. I wear a lot of black and this addition of the vibrant blue gave it the perfect punch. I did have to pin the under wrap layer at my chest to keep it conservative, but I have big boobs (36G).

Definitely comfortable, but a bit unimpressive.
I ordered this dress as a second option for attending a work event with my husband. I didn't wear it and thought it was kind of boring. The fabric didn't add any sophistication to it and skewed casual to me. It was very comfortable and fit well enough, but just lacked a bit of polish and pizazz.

Beautiful, comfortable, sophisticated cocktail dress!
This dress was perfect for my husband's dressy cocktail event with work. It ran a bit big, but simply adding a belt to cinch it in at the waist made for a wonderful silhouette. I have never been as comfortable at a dressy event as I was in this dress. I have a decent sized bust and often find dresses too tight if it fits the rest of my body, but not this one. The short length gave it a bit of sex appeal, but was still conservative elsewhere. It was perfectly sophisticated, yet fun.
