Navy Blue Jumpsuit
Adam Lippes x RTR
Size Worn: 6R
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 6"
Weight: 145lbs
Bust: 34G
Cute
Fits true to size, a little longer than midi length. Cute for a date night.
Shailene Snake Mesh Dress
AFRM
Size Worn: SR
Usual Size: 2
Height: 5' 6"
Weight: 140lbs
Bust: 32DDD/E
Gorgeous
I am usually a 2 (sometimes a 4) and rented the 2. It fit everywhere except the bust, where it was too small and about an inch from zipping. I am a DDD so I think this has more to do with my bust size as opposed to the dress itself. I imagine the 4 would zip and fit perfectly. Absolutely stunning gown and beautiful fabric.
Floral Mia Gown
SACHIN BABI
Size Worn: NONE
Usual Size: 2
Height: 5' 6"
Weight: 140lbs
Bust: 32DDD/E
Runs small
Runs small like most Elizabeth and James dresses. Order one and two sizes up for primary and backup. Flattering and classic, but not very interesting.
Black Sama Gown
Elizabeth and James
Size Worn: NONE
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 6"
Weight: 140lbs
Bust: 32DDD/E
Very long
I am just under 5'6 and the regular length was still very long with 3.5 inch heels. Pretty for a spring or summer wedding.
Purple Orchid Gown
Badgley Mischka
Size Worn: NONE
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 6"
Weight: 140lbs
Bust: 32DDD/E
Rehearsal Dinner Dress
Fits true to size but a tiny bit tight on top on me because I am a DDD. Those with larger hips or stomachs should size up for backup as there is not much give in those areas.
White Driggs Dress
LIKELY
Size Worn: 2
Usual Size: 2
Height: 5' 6"
Weight: 140lbs
Bust: 32DDD/E
Beautiful for Bridal Shower
Even more beautiful in person and fits true to size. Not much stretch in fabric but a gorgeous dress for a bride.
White Miller Lace Sheath Dress
Alexis
Size Worn: S
Usual Size: 2
Height: 5' 6"
Weight: 140lbs
Bust: 32DDD/E
Boring
Ran a bit large on top despite my large bust. No real chest support and not a lot of interest to the garment.
Black Strapless Jumpsuit
Jill Jill Stuart
Size Worn: NONE
Usual Size: 2
Height: 5' 6"
Weight: 140lbs
Bust: 32DDD/E
Not for large busts
Did not wear as it would not zip the last four inches. Fit everywhere except bust, but I am a DDD. Petite length was good for my 5'5ish height if I were to wear a mid-height heel. Darker red than picture but beautiful dress, just not for me.
Beauty in a Bottle Gown
Badgley Mischka
Size Worn: NONE
Usual Size: 2
Height: 5' 6"
Weight: 140lbs
Bust: 32DDD/E
Stunning!
The color is more of a blue than a dark navy as the picture shows. Fits true to size and hits just above the knee. Can be worn with a strapless bra and is very elegant!

Charlotte Dress
Marchesa Notte
Size Worn: 6
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 6"
Weight: 145lbs

Beautiful color!
Petite was perfect length for 5'6 with flat shoes. The color is absolutely stunning and the fit is great for someone with a large bust. Incredibly forgiving in the midsection and hip area.

Wish I could buy it!
I loved this dress. Color is a gorgeous teal. The dress runs small like most Elizabeth and James dresses but the fabric is of such good quality that Spanx are not needed. I wore a strapless bra but in retrospect I would go braless because it only added volume. Rent up a size for backup.

Gorgeous color!
True to size, great for large busts, and a beautiful color. I am only 5'6 and wore the petite with flat shoes and the length was perfect.

Meh
Beautiful color and very well-made, but not very interesting. I rented it for a holiday work party and it was absolutely appropriate while being lovely. As someone who wears career dresses everyday, this didn't wow me, but a solid pick.

Turn Over Sheath
Badgley Mischka
Size Worn: 6
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 6"
Weight: 145lbs
Bust: 34G
Showstopper!
This dress is gorgeous and very revealing if you have a large chest. The color is closer to a fuschia than a bubblegum pink but is clearly beautifully made. The fabric does not have much stretch to it so I would recommend ordering up for your backup. I have a fairly flat midsection but it still showed some flaws there, so Spanx or a seamless high-waisted thong is the way to go. At 5'6 the length was just right with a pair of 3 inch heels. Beautiful!

Full Heart Gown
Nicole Miller
Size Worn: 4R
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 6"
Weight: 145lbs
Bust: 34G
Stunning!
This dress is absolutely beautiful and flattering. The crepe material has a fair amount of stretch to it, so I pulled the straps tighter and safety pinned them behind my neck to secure the neckline. I am a DDD so I was nervous not to wear a bra, but this held up with only a couple of minor scares throughout an evening of dancing. If between sizes, I would recommend ordering down for the backup size.
