I rented this dress for a very garden-themed wedding and got compliments on it all night! Of course it’s made all the more exciting since this shade of green is my favorite color, and the gold accents made it easy to accessorize with gold-toned jewelry! The pleats along the bust looked a bit large and I wondered if it was meant for someone a bit fuller in the chest, but I also tried on the size 2 and going by shoulder seams, I think the 4 was just right. I didn’t have to wear any special bras underneath; a typical skin-tone bra worked perfectly. I appreciated the sheer fabric on the back; any time a breeze flowed, it was nice and cooling on me. The skirt is also lined to be very opaque and I wore a dark colored bike short underneath for comfort. There’s a side zipper on the left side to assist in putting on the dress. If only there were also pockets, then this dress would’ve been perfect! I’d love to rent this dress again if the occasion arises!

I got this dress and another one to choose from for a wedding in late October. Ultimately I ended up going with the other dress only because it was a style I wanted to try earlier this year but was too small when I initially rented it. This dress would’ve been a solid alternative and fit just right for me, and I would even want to wear it to another wedding I’m attending next week, but unfortunately isn’t available 😂 The neckline is a bit low so I would style it with a bralette or cami, as I am wearing in my photos.

It's so funny how brand-specific sizing can be. In the original style I wanted to wear, even a 4 was too tight for me. Yet the size 0 for this dress fit me so well! I did what I saw a lot of reviewers do and wore a black bralette under the dress to address the low neckline. Also this dress has POCKETS!!! I really don't want to have to return this dress- it was perfect for the back to back weddings I attended and I got so many compliments! This is a fun dress although the skirt can be weighty.

This dress definitely runs small. I looked through others' reviews and based on what I could gather, I rented a 2R and chose 4R as my backup size. Well I couldn't even squeeze into the 2, and struggled to get into the 4 and to zip it up. Once I did, the dress wasn't even flattering. I should've tried a 6R, but couldn't get one in time for the weddings I attended. I'd love to give this dress another try when I attend another wedding in October, as the embroidery and lace are so pretty! There's even a sheer panel around the waist which I'd normally balk at, but the black lace means it's not too obvious. This is a gorgeous dress, but it's very tight and form fitting, and runs small (so small that I underestimated how much I'd need to size up!). Edit: I rented a 6R for another wedding I attended and it fits comfortably around my body now. However my bust isn't full enough to fill in the upper part of the dress and I had considered pinning it at the bottom of the armscye but ultimately felt it was unnecessary as I was wearing a light sweater over it, anyways. The other issue about not filling in the dress properly is that the zipper started coming undone and there was no clasp at the top to keep the back neckline in place. On the other hand, the length is great- I wore flats and the hem just barely brushed the floor. It was also long and dark enough for me to sneak in a pair of leggings!
