Just "off"
I wanted to love this dress but the cut was just slightly "off" and made me look a lot wider than I really am. Probably better for shorter torsos.

Not for women with long torsos
I wanted to love this dress but the side cutouts just hit me in the worst possible place. Would have been perfect if i had about two inches less of torso lol

Definitely size up!
I'm usually between a 2/4 so I'm really glad I read the reviews first! The 6 fit perfectly! Gorgeous burgundy colour that really pops. The only complaint I had was that the black lining was really obvious in the top of the bust area. Speaking of the bust area, good luck if you have big chesticles, I'm small busted and it was a tight fit!

Perfect spring/summer dress
POCKETS!!!! But also, great quality and a super soft lining. Admittedly the 4 fit perfectly because I have a small bust. If I had more boobage there's no way I would have fit as it was kind of tight as is. Got some great compliments on this dress and debated on buying but it was a hair too long for my taste (tea length). I prefer dresses that hit at the knee. Also, I was a little bummed that it didn't have the front bow that's depicted! Still cute though.

Not for long torsos :(
This dress fit perfectly everywhere except it stopped right at the middle of my bum! Of course, my husband loved that my bum was on full display but of course I couldn't wear it out of the house. We both agreed this would have been a perfect dress if my torso had been about three inches shorter as it was of great quality.

Beautiful colour but very boxy
This dress was beautiful on the hanger but it made me look very boxy. The length was great but I looked in the mirror and realized it hid any curve I ever had... not ideal for a date with the hubs! lol

VEGAS BABY!
This dress hugged all the right curves! Great, thick material that enhanced my physique perfectly. My only complaint is that the shoulders slipped a bit. If the strap in the back was a little tighter I'm sure it would have fit perfectly. I got the medium instead of the small after reading the previous reviews... the short would have put EVERYTHING on display. The medium was short enough with my long torso lol

Classic yet sassy
Gorgeous dress but was a weird length for me. Too long to be sexy and too short to be elegant lol went with another dress instead

Too short :(
Adored the romanticism of this dress but it was way too short for my 5'6" frame... couldn't even pull it off with flats as it was an inch above my ankle

Smokin' dress for the Fire Ball
Loved this dress! I attended the Fire Ball (similar to a military ball) and got SO many compliments! I normally wear a size 4 but this 4L was a little loose around the waist. The length was perfect to go with my 3inch heels though!!! I might try the 2L next to see if it's more snug around the waist/bust but overall this was a huge hit. PS a little on the sheer side so be sure to invest in a nude pair of panties ;)
