Beautiful embroidery
I loved how this dress looked, the embroidery and all the colors are so fun and pretty. I thought the body of the dress was comfortable, the straps felt a tiny bit loose. They stayed up for the most part but I would've liked to have them tighter. They are adjustable but already on the shortest setting. I thought the bra cup/pads felt weird and thick but they looked fine

Beautiful dress
This dress definitely runs small. I typically wear a dress size 2, sometimes 0. I am 32B, 26 waist and 37 hip. I wore a 4 in this dress. I love the layers on this dress and how it felt like it hugged me. The gold pattern reminded me of leopards! I'm 5'2" and wore one inch heels, the length of this dress is perfect for fellow petites!

Perfect for work dinner-dance
This dress fit great and it was so comfortable. I wore an adhesive bra with it, which worked best so I didn't have to worry abut straps showing although the one thinner strap is enough to hide a bra strap. I rented this for a work related dinner dance event so this dress was perfect in that it had a little flair with the flowy sleeve and embellishment on the strap, but it was still on the conservative side.

This dress is hot!
I loved this dress. The colors are fun, super perfect for a night out. The material is thick, so you don't have to worry about weird lines showing through the dress. I ordered the size XS and S. The XS was perfect around the bust, but around the stomach it was a little too tight. The zipper didn't lay flat on my back. The S fit better, but was also bigger around the bust. I ended up wearing the S. I love how this dress looks. Would rent again!

So pretty!
I love this clutch and its design. It was able to fit my phone, a few cards and a lipstick--really the only things I needed. There was a problem with the closure on the one I received. It wouldn't shut right unless you fidgeted around with it. There was one time I was walking and it spontaneously opened and all my stuff spilled out.

Vibrant dress!
The colors on this dress are very fun and vibrant. The online picture makes the colors look more pastel like, but in fact they're almost neon! Especially the embroidered green flowers on the dress. I think the 6 was equivalent to what I usually wear (size 0). I liked the above the knee length of the 6, but unfortunately it was a little tight around the stomach. If i planned on not eating at all that day it probably would be ok haha. I went with the 8, which was longer on my petite frame and had more room around the stomach. The dress is very comfortable. No fidgeting with it whatsoever. I wore the nubra with it and it was perfect.

Double-take worthy
I really liked this dress! I wore it to a black tie wedding. The bottom of the dress is flowly when you walk and its really pretty. I didnt have a problem with the straps being too long with the 0R, which I read other people had problems with. I did think the boob area felt weird on me, like it was too close to my arm pits. However, once i put in my sticky push up bra cups (the kind i got stuck to the dress instead of my skin), the boob area looked better. It looks like a lighter color in the RTR picture, but it definitely doesn't have the white factor to "compete" with the bride. The lace is a more gray color and the underneath the lace is a light pink. I got compliments all night!!! My only issue was that since I'm pretty slender, the dress did not hug my lower back. So it kind of just looked like my lower back was in a straight line with my butt.
