Beautiful light dress for a more casual wedding
Loved this dress and the high/low detail at the hem. Definitely runs true to size but was slightly tight around my ribs (but most dresses are for me). If you are like me and have this issue, maybe size up!

Gorg dress for a summer wedding
Loved this dress for a summer wedding. It is Australian sizing so a 10R is a 6 FYI (don't be confused). It ran pretty true to size but a little on the big side.

Beautiful & comfortable dress for black tie event
While I loved the dress, it required some creative taping to keep my chest area intact. If you are small chested I would size down, as it was a little loose in all areas except for the top. Otherwise it was perfect for a black tie formal event!

Perfect for a bachelorette party in Vegas. DO invest in "Adhesive Strapless Silicone Sticky bra".
I do have 36Ds so I did end up clipping it in the center (clip is already there). You cannot wear a bra with this so definitely get stickon pasties. Also, I am 5'8" and with 3" heels the length was fine. Only downside are the buttons around the neck which are tricky to get on. Overall, it was incredibly comfy & fun for a night in Vegas.

This dress is incredibly flattering, very comfortable & true to size. I highly recommend renting it!
This dress was incredibly flattering & very comfortable. I am 5'8" and this dress hit my knee, so I imagine it may be much longer on someone shorter. I range in size from a 4-8, so I got a 6 & 8. I ended up wearing the 6. Also, the cut is very conservative, so I wish I wore my hair down and less 'polished'. Overall, it was a great dress and I highly recommend renting it, especially if you are going to a family/more traditional event or wedding.

Great for a Formal Event
I wore this dress to a wedding this past weekend & I thought it was incredibly flattering and perfect for the event. Just to note: it was a little big in the bust & a tighter around the waist than I expected, but I would still say it fit well.

Fun for a Night Out!
I rented this dress for a Bachelorette Party in Atlantic City. It was perfect for the event! I would say this runs pretty true to size, however I do have a not-existant backside so I would recommend ladies who have more to possibly rent a size up.

Parisian Cabaret Dress

Size Worn: 6
Usual Size: 6

Cute on the model & in person
I fell in love with this dress online & even when I took it out of the bag. Unfortunately, when I tried on both the 6 & the size 8 (I typically wear a size 6), I could barely get the bottom of the dress pull over my thighs & the top of the dress kept falling off because it was so large. It was like it was made for someone with a size 0-2 bottom & size 12 top. I ended up returning it & wearing a dress I had.

I absolutely loved this dress. I am pretty tall and was nervous about it being too short but it ended being the same length as is shown on the model. It is also very flattering and comfortable. I got tons of complements!
