This dress is LOVELY and CLASSIC. Pairing it with the Kate Spade Clean Break Necklace really took it to another level. With my red hair and fair skin, the color was perfect. All of that being said, the fit was a little strange but still worth a shot. I normally wear an 8 in dresses. I have more of an athletic build and have had two children, so fit can sometimes be all over the place. I was sent the 10 in this, and while it worked, it was a little uncomfortable to wear during my evening out. The top of the dress fit well and I would say it was even a little large. It more than accommodated my 36C chest with room to spare. I don't think it looked TOO big, though I was aware that it was a bit on the larger side as I was wearing it. This fabric is heavy and will provide zero stretch, so I'd say that the top will be a good fit for anyone moderately well-endowed in the chest. If you are below a C and above a D cup, I'm not sure this would be a good fit. The bottom is where I had more problems. The waist was nice and tight so it definitely did a good job of cinching in any 'tummy problems'. However, the skirt was RIDICULOUSLY tight! I almost never have this problem because my legs are pretty slim, but I was shocked at how packed into this dress I was (on the bottom). It was a little uncomfortable to sit at first. After a few glasses of wine, I didn't really notice as much. Either it was the wine or perhaps the dress was being broken in a bit? Hard to tell. I did receive the dress brand new with the tags still on, so it's possible that it just needed a little 'wear' time. Overall, I think this was a gorgeous dress and I was happy to be able to wear it. I think the fit will be tricky for lots of people, though. I would highly recommend it to ladies who are more straight and narrow as it will give you the illusion of lots of beautiful curves. I would recommend going up a size simply for the bottom even if the top might feel a little too big.

SO adorable, but runs a little small. I'm usually an 8 but wore the 10 in this. Cute, cute, cute!!!

I've had 2 children and I felt SUPER hot in this dress. I wore it for my 31st birthday, and received so many compliments. I was a little worried that it would be unflattering on my less-than-perfect figure and expected to have to rig up a number of shape wear items to make it look decent, but I'm happy to report I was able to go sans-Spanx! It is an unbelievably beautiful dress and is super flattering. The slip underneath does a really good job of sucking in and smoothing over any trouble areas. The neckline is beautiful, delicate, and daring all at the same time. The length was perfect for me and I am 5'9". This dress really blew my guy away - and he told me later that evening that so many other men were checking me out while we were out on the town! (Of course, I was oblivious!) I will definitely rent this again! As far as the sizing went, both the M and L fit well, but I was a little more comfortable wearing the L. It had a little more length to it and wasn't as tight as the M. Wanted to leave a *little* to the imagination. : )

Loved this dress - easy fit, so comfy! If anything was a tad big. I normally wear an 8, but probably could have used a 6 in this. The details are beautiful.
