I personally loved this dress and felt like it was flattering even without shape-wear. I wound up sizing down to size 10, so the curves hugged. I liked that I felt covered yet sophisticated and not matronly. It gave classic and sleek. Highly recommend! I would buy it if possible.

Functional, party-ready, Little Black Dress!
Wore this for my bachelorette part. I have to say, it was a lot of fun to dance and play around in (we did karaoke & dancing). It was short, but not too short and I felt like it didn't ride at all. It was almost perfectly molded to my bum. It never gave me problems. I will say, I didn't wear heels because I wanted to be comfortable throughout the night, and it still wound up looking really cute. My only con is the zipper. People are so right in their reviews! I tried this on the day before my bachelorette and wasn't sure if I would make it out the dress without cutting or ripping it. I literally had to fight with the zipper, contorting various ways before it went down. The next day it went down a little smoother for the party, but that first time had me scared I would be trapped. Beyond that, I really liked the dress and would rent again. Just make sure to get the zipper going up and down smoothly before you put it on.

Such A Tease Dress

Loved everything about this!
This dress is really everything everyone said it would be. I was a little nervous because my backup size was out of stock but I went for the 8R (which is my normal size) and it was perfect! Not only that but it hugged my slight curves nicely. The lace wasn't see through and I felt modest in it. I would definitely rent this again for a formal event! I also wore it with about 3.5 inch heels and had no issues with the length. I'm a little over 5'7.

Legs!
Wore this for my bridal shower and I can say, this one I do not want to send back. It was a backup since my original order couldn't be shipped. I was a little leery but thought this was the cuter of the two options they sent. I couldn't have been happier in the end! I love retro looks and this was that. It also wasn't form-fitting and showed a lot of leg. I wore some daring stilettos and the look came out great. I got a lot of compliments. The only small complaint I have is the lining was acting weird and hanging out of the dress when I first put it on, but that somehow seemed to work itself out during the day, and it fell evenly later on. That lining also made the dress very hot, as I wasn't in a bit of hot environment. Other than that though, I loved it! If I were into white dresses for everyday wear I would probably buy it.

A fun dress, but small!
I would definitely give this dress a solid B, if I were to give a grade. Upon first trying it on, I right away noticed 1) the tightness and 2) the length. I normally wear a Medium and sometimes even a Small, and I am so glad I read reviews beforehand about sizing up. I am both hip-y and leggy and that meant the dress was tight around the hips as well as a borderline minidress. I had to go with the Large to even be able to pull the dress up over my hips and my chest (which is a 36C). The fabric has almost no give, so sitting down caused the dress to ride up. In those moments, I laid my huge clutch purse over my lap. So, in summation: PROS: The sleeves are super cute. The pattern is fun and different. If you have curves and a flat tummy, you really get to flaunt both. It's a nice, youthful length for a party-style event. CONS: Tight, tight, tight! Sitting down is going to cause the dress to ride up. It's also pretty short. It looked more conservative when I paired it with shorter heels (wedges), but when I first tried it on with pumps I felt it looked really dramatic and short. It worked for a wedding, but it probably would not work for a more conservative event. Dancing in it was very interesting. I couldn't do too many complicated moves. If you have hips, beware. It is snug wherever there are curves. I know it looks like more cons than pros, but I really overall liked the dress. I would not buy it, but it did the trick for the particular event I was at. If you're not shy about the length or unforgiving fabric, I'd recommend.
