snug in the bodice
Loved this dress! Too bad I'm still trying to figure out my size again at 3 mos post-partum. It fit great, until I got to my ribs - then it was too snug to breathe. The fabric is great, and the cut is flattering. I really wish I could have worn it!

Not quite the fit I hoped for
I'm 3 months post-partum, so my sizes are all off, but the M didn't wrap around me at all. I loved the print! It's super springy and cute. I did like that the skirt is lined and there's a snap to help hold the top together, but unfortunately, I wasn't able to wear the dress.

Spin Me Around Wrap Dress

Stretchy, comfy dress
I wound up not wearing this dress, but it's a great dress. (It was a second dress sent because a size wasn't available) Not too low cut, with great shoulder coverage - you can wear a regular bra. I tried on the Medium, but the Large was more comfortable. There's plenty of stretch in the dress, even around the seam in the middle. I would rent it again.

I got compliments on this dress all night long!
The seam connecting the top to the skirt is a little snug, but not uncomfortably so. Otherwise, the fit is perfect. It's not too low cut, and has great shoulder coverage, so you can wear a regular bra. The skirt has pockets, deep enough for a cell phone (and it's invisible in there!). It's a great dancing dress, with little risk of flashing everyone while you're having fun.

Bling it up!
These were big, but not super huge. They are kind of heavy - I was aware of them all night - but they aren't uncomfortable.

Perfect party dress!
This dress was slightly shorter than I expected, but otherwise fit great! I usually wear an 8, but read the other reviews that said it fit loosely and took a chance on the 6. I'm glad I did. It was great! Not biding anywhere, and I got lots of compliments

Great trio! A little snug getting on my wrist, but otherwise fit great.
These slid on with a slight difficulty, but otherwise didn't move around much all night. A great trio for a dressy or casual occasion.

A lovely dress, lightweight with a swingy skirt. Fits very snugly around the waist, so I sized up
The V is very deep. I was able to wear my usual bra, but it did show at certain angles. My version of this dress had no pockets, which was disappointing.

too small for my HTC One :(
This was a lovely purse, but too small to fit my cell phone (an HTC One, bigger than an iPhone). Thankfully, I had a backup that worked.

Not too heavy, not too big - just right!
These earrings matched the necklace I rented. Not too heavy, not too big - just right! I got compliments on the dress and the jewelry both.

I was called "Betty Draper" thanks to this dress!
It fits a little snugly at the seam in the bodice, but was comfortable all night. I got complimented many times, and was very happy with the dress!
