Beautiful dress for a spring/summer wedding
I loved this dress and got soooo many compliments at a spring wedding in Texas. Really beautiful, high quality fabric but light and breathable. I could dance all night! The zipper is a little sticky with the fabric; but it worked and fit well. Definitely smaller through the bust but I wore it without a bra and it fit perfect.

Versatile party or work dress!
I loved it so much, I rented it twice. Perfect for a work conference and a rehearsal dinner. I had to tie the wrap a little tighter for work because I didn't want to show as much cleavage, then loosened it for the party! Super versatile, fits like a dream, nice substantial fabric that smoothes but still super lightweight and breathable in 85 degree weather. So flattering.

Sexy twist on an LBD
I wanted a midnight blue dress that matched my date's tux for a cocktail wedding. I loved the color and the length of this dress (I have a long torso and it wasn't too short) and I received a lot of compliments. But there was one strange problem: the straps were way too long. I noticed that comment in other reviews but ignored it because I thought it was an anomaly. It's not, it's a problem. They kept slipping all night. The quality fabric is nice and structured so it looks really great for a black tie or cocktail event. The blue is more vibrant than it looks on the model.

Perfect bridesmaid dress!
I rented this for a wedding and it was perfect. The bust fit snugly so I didn't have to hoist it up once during the ceremony or reception (score!). I decided to wear it without the belt and paired it with nude heels for a pretty, soft, bridesmaid-y look. I received tons of compliments on it and loved the way it photographed in pictures. Some images of this dress look light, but it is on the brighter side of coral. I loved it. The bride loved it. Everyone was happy. :)

Pink, girly, gorgeous, fun!
I received compliments all night long in this dress. The high-low hem is perfect for a black tie optional or cocktail wedding (dressy but not too formal) and I absolutely adore the shape and detailing. The bust is a little snug and doesn't reveal any cleavage, but that's a good thing—because I never had to pull it up once during a full night of dancing. I'm 5'8 so I rented a regular and a long. Decided to wear the regular because the long was really long and dragged on the ground. The back hem hits slightly above the floor so you might need tall heels. I went for silver ones but nude looked great too.

Rented this dress for my birthday and felt like a princess!
I rented this dress for my birthday and absolutely loved it. The dress is sexy and fun—but still classy enough for a nice dinner. If fit like a glove but was still super comfortable to dance in. I'd definitely rent it again.
