Loved the gold lace detail - makes it different from all the other black peplum dresses out there. I can sometimes wear a 2 in tibi, but needed the 4 b/c its relatively fitted in the hips. Flattering fit and comfortable. You will need to wear a strapless bra b/c the sleeves cut in a little too far for regular bra straps.

Wore this dress to my engagement party. Got lots of compliments and it was perfect for the occasion because its stylish and has the beautiful back, but the length and coverage make it appropriate for a classier event. One thing I didn't expect was that I couldn't wear a strapless bra with it - you'd need one of the sticky bras that doesn't show at all in the back because the opening goes pretty low.

Dress has a nice mix of sex appeal and sophistication. Its on the longer side, which is good b/c every other element is racy. The v is very deep, the slit is relatively high, the cutout in the back is surprising and the fit is quite snug. I wore a 4 and typically wear a 2 or 4. There's no way I could have fit into the 2 and the 4 was very fitted. The fabric was thinner than I expected - its a normal weight, not like a Herve. So, lines will show. Probably wouldn't work with tights unless you sized up or are very thin. Compliments poured in!

Loved the unique color combo. Got lots of compliments and would love to own this dress - its really versatile and could be dressed up or down. I typically wear a 2 or a 4 and I'm glad I went with the 4 in this dress - I liked the looser fit. The dress is short, so I probably wouldnt recommend for women over 5' 7" who are going to an event where mini would be inappropriate. Would look great with black tights too.

This would look great with just about everything - I want to buy one!

These were beautiful in person - they are very striking! I didnt wear a necklace with them, as they were such a statement piece. They weren't heavy and felt comfortable all night.

I want to own this dress, I'm obsessed! The fit could not have been better and the fabric was light and comfortable. The structure around the pockets and shoulders give it a strong shape and make it stand out (of course the great colors also get noticed!). Length was perfect on me, but could be long on those under 5'5".

Loved these earrings - gave my outfit a lot more personality! Also very lightweight and easy on my ears.

Really liked this dress. I cant always wear a 2, but the dress was blousy enough that it worked perfectly. I didnt receive a belt with the dress, so I didnt wear one and liked the simple look, but you could certainly pair any belt with it. Color is brighter in natural light - looks more like a dark royal blue.

This dress fit really well. It's cut perfectly and was very flattering. I loved the yellow and interesting print - no one was wearing anything like it! The fabric is a very lightweight cotton, so this would be perfect for any outdoor event. The fabric is less dressy than I expected - I'd compare it to the weight and feel of a button up cotton shirt.

Wore this to a daytime party and loved it! Its really comfortable and easy to move in. The small was great and I think I could have worn the XS too, so definitely dont size up!

Really loved wearing this dress. It was conservative but still fun and cute. The silk was really soft and a good weight. I wish I had rented a big statement necklace to wear with it. The neckline would look great with a necklace. I thought the waist was slightly tighter than other Tibi size 2's I've worn in the past, but if I'd sized up the armholes wouldnt have been fitted enough. This would be perfect for a wedding or any type of summer party!

Loved wearing this - it was comfortable, flattering and had great colors. It could be worn with dressier sandals or heels.

Really liked the look of this dress. I wore the 4 because it was the best fit overall, but really could have used a 6 in the hips (I typically wear 2 or 4). I'd recommend this for women have very proportional bodies.

I really liked this dress and think it could be perfect for SO many occasions. The fabric is dressy but the style is cute & casual enough to wear during the day. Skirt has built in wired fabric around bottom so that skirt keeps its shape. My only complaint is the armholes are cut a little low and show more skin than I'd prefer. I felt it made my underarms / upper chest look a little pudgy, so I wore a cardigan around my shoulders.

These are really beautiful earrings and really dress up any outfit. They would be great for a cocktail party, night out or formal wedding. Loved the green color.

I really like the style of the dress, but the fit wasn't great on me. It nips in at the waist and I'm pretty straight down w/o a pronounced waist so it was tighter in the waist than I would have liked. I typically wear a 2, but got 4 as backup size. I really couldn't tell a difference in the two sizes but ended up wearing the 4 hoping it would give me a little more room! Also, if you've got a full bust, you probably wont be able to wear a bra... and if you do, definitely wear black. On the right body type I think this dress would be amazing!

I ordered a 2 and 4 and wore the 2. I have a small/medium bust and the 2 was perfect. Its really pretty and shows just a tiny bit of cleavage. Classy and a little sexy. Perfect length on 5'5".

The color is striking and the cut is very flattering! I usually wear a 2 in Shoshanna but I found this a little snug. I got tons of compliments on the fit though. I wore it to a party with friends so the tightness was okay, but if I were to wear it to a wedding I'd go a size higher. I added a belt to add more waist definition.

Loved the colors in this dress - pastels plus brighter shades. There are tons of accessory and shoe options. I wanted to dress down so I wore with a white shell-like necklace and flat sandals. The fabric was pretty casual - its cotton, though it appears silk in the pic. I think Catherine Malandrino runs small so I got the 4 & 6 but wore the 4. Someone with a larger chest would probably need to size up.

Loved everything about this dress, especially the extra structure in the shoulders. The colors were great -- I'm blonde and love to wear blues. I thought it was a little snug in the waist. I wore it to a cocktail party so I was standing up most of the time and it wasn't an issue, but I might have sized up had I known.

Lela Rose's dresses fit so well! I loved this one and wore it to a birthday dinner for my mom. The fabric is thick and structured with beautiful colors. I would love to own this dress. It was a good length on me (5'5") but could be long on someone shorter.

I ended up not wearing this dress because it was too tight. The dress has two layers and the liner has no give, so I'd size up. Very pretty print though!

I wore this to a daytime party and then to a concert with a leather jacket - it can definitely be dressed up or down. I loved the fabric - very lightweight and comfortable. Sometimes size 2 can be tight in the hips for me but this was perfect. I highly recommend!
