So cute! I'm in love
This dress definitely runs large, because I wore an XS and that is not my usual size, but it was so cute!! Very short, which was fun to show off the legs, and the back is low cute so get a strapless backless bra. It's so colorful and shiny and pretty I'm obsessed with this dress! I got tons of compliments:)

Great dress, especially for a winter event
This dress is great with the long sleeves and the weight of the dress kept me warm with an outdoor cocktail hour! The deep back meant no bra, but this a heavy material so it was fine. Got tons of compliments, and felt beautiful in it!

Cute dress, good cut, but maybe order your backup a size down?
This was my come to the rescue dress after another was not a good fit. Unfortunately I did not get a back up size with it and went with my standard size 6. It was pretty big, with some space around the middle and lots of space in the bust / shoulder straps. I used fashion tape to hold it in place so it worked for me, but I will probably rent again, just a size down.

Great dress, tons of complements
This dress fit really well. I was a little self conscious of the arm area because if my arms were by my side I felt like the dress made them look a little chubbier than normal but I got over it real fast. It was comfortable and fun! Wore it to a Kentucky derby themed party and it was great!

Mystery bling was a clutch
With the dress I ordered there was so much potential to add a statement necklace, bangles, stacked bracelets, statement earrings, whatever!! But the mystery bling sent was a clutch. I felt pretty let down, I would have liked to see a cool necklace instead.
Really cute dress, tricky sizing
I really like the look of this dress - it's a super flattering cut and shows off some legs and chest without being too much. My only complaint is the size of the chest. I guess I'm not super well endowed up there, but the 4 was a little tight and the size 6, which is my normal size, left me looking like a little girl trying on her moms clothes. I opted for the size 4 so we didn't have an unfortunate wardrobe malfunction during the evening, but the 4 definitely required some sucking in and posturing to make it work. Just something to keep in mind if your chest is not proportionate to your dress size.

Hot dress!!
I wore this out in vegas and it was perfect! It's pretty form fitting and short but it was vegas after all!

Cute dress, but if you are between sizes go down
My usual backup size is to go down one because I am a little in between but that wasn't available so I wore the 6 and it was a little roomy. Fashion tape to the rescue so my boobs didn't make a surprise appearance! It's a surprisingly heavy dress so if you are going dancing it might give you a great workout! Overall classy and a great evening choice.

Runs large but otherwise pretty
I got lots of compliments - this dress is very pretty! It has a low back so you won't be wearing a bra, or get some pasties. I also put some fashion tape at the base of the neckline which was a couple inches above my belly button, because otherwise when you bend forward everyone would be getting a peak!

Hour glass shape
Really cute dress, very flattering to your figure. I don't have a ton of curves but this dress gave me some with the way it's cut and hugs your figure. Very elegant.

Really different and classy with the plunge neck line
I wish I had boobs to fill this out because I had to pad and fashion tape like crazy to get it to look right. The hips was a good fit though, so I'm not sure going down a size would be the right answer. I got compliments on the dress though and felt sexy all night. I was just also nervous all night about the potential for a nip slip.

Super fun party dress!
Ok so I normally wear a 6 but I'm not super curvy. I could have gone down to a 4 in this since I don't have boobs; but the even better part is it made it look like I have curves!! This dress gave me a butt!! So exciting. And I got lots of compliments. Plus it's comfortable and doesn't have any tricky pieces you have to worry about while busting a move on the dance floor.

Beautiful dress with just the right amount of sparkle
This dress fits great and is very flattering! The one downside, which isn't huge, but the sequins kept catching on my shoes as I walked. Luckily there wasn't much walking but just imagine if I would have tripped! That would be horrible. So if your shoes have a little buckle it will catch on the dress. Just be prepared. Otherwise it was gorgeous and just the right dress for a formal black tie evening.
