I want to wear this dress every day for the rest of my life.
I. LOVE. THIS. DRESS. It fits beautifully, totally hiding my problem area (the tummy). It fits pretty true to size, but the top was a bit big. Because of the double zipper it wasn't a problem and didn't slip very much throughout the night. The see through part isn't AS see through as on the model, but it is still noticeable and makes this dress a little bit cooler than just your typical black gown. I wore this for a black tie wedding, and got A TON of compliments! I had just had surgery on my face, and had a super noticeable scar, but everyone was looking at my dress instead! It really made me feel beautiful. 12/10 recommend!!

Stood out from the other black dresses
OMG I LOVE THIS DRESS. If I could buy it, I would in a heartbeat. First of all, it's stunning! I got SO many compliments, and it totally stood out from the many other long black dresses at the wedding. I didn't walk into the restroom once without someone saying "WOW what a gorgeous dress!" Second, it totally hid my problem area (aka my tummy). It was tight in all the right places, and the overlay helped hide my tum (which is basically what I look for in all dresses). If you're on the fence, RENT IT.

Gorgeous color for a gorgeous wedding
First off, the color is stunning. It's so different than anything I've worn before, and definitely stood out. I wore this to a late April wedding in Charleston, and it was the perfect dress. It's super easy to dress up or down. I paired it with flat sandals and a chunky necklace, since the wedding was on the more casual side. I ended up renting this dress from the NYC Flagship store the morning of my flight because the dress I originally ordered looked awful on me. Thank goodness they were quick and efficient and helped me look my best literally HOURS before I flew to the wedding. Great experience overall!!

Super sexy, and fun!
First off, it's sexy - so be prepared to have eyes on you (in a great way!). I wore this for a black tie dinner, and was a total standout in a sea of black gowns. I loved it. I'm 5'7" and wore 3 1/2 in. heels, and the outer layer of the skirt was still super long. I picked it up when I walked, so all good. I felt so sexy and comfortable in this dress, I'd wear it every day if I could. The dress fit perfectly, and I got tons of compliments. Can't say enough good things about this dress.

Great fit and gorgeous color!
I wore this for a black-tie optional wedding in late June. This was originally my backup dress, but it fit and felt so great, that I had to wear it! The fabric was breathable enough that it worked for Summer, but thick and luscious enough that it can be worn all year. I'm 5'7" and it fell right beneath my knees, giving it that flirty but fancy feel. I typically run between a 6-8 in dress size, and the 6 was perfect! The fabric is thick and fitted enough that I didn't really need a bra. I wore one to perk the girls up a bit, but I liked that I had the option. In person, the dress is even prettier, because the silver detailing really stands out. Overall, I loved this.
