Great night and the dress shimmered under the stars.
I am 5'10" and it was a little short, but it was good at hiding the lumps and bumps. A little scratchy under the arms, but beautiful and I got a lot of compliments.

Not for some tall and big busted. It was way too small from the waist up. It is a beautiful color, but I could not wear it.

Good dress and fit
good dress, just look a little different in person than in the photos. I thought the center section would be dressier, but it was more casual. I love this designer and the dresses are well made.

Have the guts to wear a cape - awesome!
Love this dress. It is comfortable, dramatic and chic. I wore it in navy and rented it in red for a Christmas party. I felt like a superhero and looked like a super model. It runs a little large so order accordingly.

Perfect little black dress
This was the perfect little black dress to standout from the crowd. The sheen and cut made it more than a simple dress. It seemed to run just a bit small so if in question order up, but not too small not to wear. The fabric is great for hiding any imperfections.

I felt like a princess.
I felt like Cinderella. Several people said I had the best gown at the party. It is easy to wear, comfortable and simply beautiful. The fabric is very forgiving. Not sure what I will wear next year to the same event, because I may not be able to top this gown.

Not my favorite.
I have rented other Carmen Marc Volvo gowns and the fabric has always been thick and luxurious. This was a little thin and very unforgiving. I did not end up wearing it.

Dramatic and simple.
Great fit and extremely flattering. This would be great under a simple blazer to wear to work and then dress up for dinner. It is a thick fabric and very forgiving. I will probably rent again. Wore another size.

Comfort in a unique color.
I am tall and it is a bit short, but the fabric is really thick and beautiful. The color is unique and can be dressed up. Would be great for a cruise or summer evening party.

Great little black dress.
Great comfortable dress. I am 5'10 and it was a great length, but short in the torso area. I could have worn the 16, but it was too short up top. The fabric is not too thick, not too thin.

Sparkled in the pictures
This dress is a great fabric with some weight and easy to wear. I usually wear a 16 or 18 in other sizes and I opted to wear this dress in a 20. The green is really shiny and I may rent for the holidays. You can wear a normal bra and it hides the lumps and bumps.

Great fit and comfortable to wear. I got lots of compliments. It was a pretty color and dark enough that I could wear with black shoes. I was on stage at the formal event I attended and everyone said it was the best dress on the stage.

Beautiful Neckline
I did not end up wearing this dress. I am 5'10" and I ordered the long and it was a great length. the mid section was just a tad too big, but it was off enough that the dress did not seem special enough. I had an alternative style that I liked better. It would have served the purpose if I got stuck, but not my favorite.

Very dramatic and a show stopper.
I find that this designer runs small. I usually wear a 16 or 18 and the 20 was snug. I am a 42DDD and the top was too big and also way too low. I pinned the straps so that it was not as low. However, the color, fabric and design are beautiful. It is flattering and also hides all of your flaws.

The next day someone came up to me and said "You were the one with the beautiful dress and style".
I have rented this designer often and this was as great as the rest. I ordered the 18W and wore the 16W. I am 5'10" and it was above the knee and not too short, but is a bit on the shorter side. It is a heavier weight fabric and was a perfect chic dress for a fall evening. I am looking forward for reason to wear the red version. I also got a chunky necklace as others had suggested and it made the look.

The color was spectacular. It was very much a blue/green.
Very comfortable and flattering. I have worn other styles by this designer. I usually wear and 18 and this was true to size. This could be worn for formal and cocktail events. This color would be great at a holiday party. I will probably rent again.

It was sparkly without being too dramatic. A great touch to make the outfit.
It was very comfortable. Would probably fit most wrists. I wore it with a lace dress and a few times I worried that it might snag the dress, but it did not seem to catch on anything too much.
