Loved it so much I bought it
I don’t have many pictures, but this dress hides a tummy! Very comfortable, many compliments and I found it on line at Halston on sale.

Top doesn’t fit
This is incredibly odd fitting. I didn’t wear it as I would have to tape the entire top to my body.

I wore this to NY and it was perfect although a top button would have been great. It is big so it fits over bulky clothes

A little different from everyone else
I wear between a 6 8 and this was a little snug, although it fit. Heavier material than it looks.

Perfect dress for Diner en Blanc
I had to be able to move a lot (set up a table, lots of bending and climbing stairs, etc), but still look elegant. This dress was perfect. The sequins were very small and did not cause any discomfort. I would rent this again!

The color was true to the images
This is a high waisted dress which made me feel like my hips looked odd, but I got a lot of compliments on the dress. I normally wear 6 - 8 and the 6 was perfect.

Perfect for a 1960's style party
It fit like a dream, but it was long. I am 5'7 and needed significant heels. I still had to lift the hem to walk. Like others said, the sequins do scratch the arms, but it didn't hurt. I just had rough skin for a few days. I would definitely rent this again.

One inch more and I wouldn't have fit in this, but I loved this dress. I didn't use the much stated pockets, but for warm weather, this gave me breathing room.

The tail!
Wish me luck as I wear this very comfortable and whimsical sweater to the office today. It turns out it has a bunny tail - 3D, not printed - on the back.

Fun and flattering
If you are a size 8ish the 8 will be a snug fit. I wore this work, but a weekend day event would be perfect as well. I loved the flouncy skirt. A sure rental for the future.

Didn't wear it
I wear a size 6-8 and 6 was the right size. But I felt like it looked dumpy on me so I sent it back without wearing it. The image is better than the reality.

Company Oscar party worthy!
It was a tiny snug, but fit, so if you are a 6-8 size, it might feel close. Easy to move in, and you don't feel like you have to pick up the back to walk around.

It runs small and a little short on the sleeve length. It was more casual than I expected as well. But nice and warm!

Great fit and comfortable
I usually wear a 6 or 8, but this dress was perfect in a 6. Flattering to the waist and just the right length with some heels (I am 5'7). I will rent this again.

This dress is true to the color in the image. It runs big and needs a belt.

I really liked the look of the outfit, but it did require a lot of double stick tape and no deep breaths. I would rent it again.

Very comfortable fit
While I was a little worried that the hot pink was a bit much, I got a lot of compliments. Despite what someone else said, you still have the normal wiggling required to get in and out of the zipper.

Although I could zip it up, I really needed a size up so I wore my other dress instead, but this is one I will rent again. It looks exactly like the model and is very flattering.

Crushed Bodice Dress
Donna Karan New York
Size Worn: 6
Usual Size: 10
Height: 5' 7"
Weight: 145lbs
Bust: 36B
It feels very elegant
You will need double stick tape - if nothing else, to hold the hanger straps that are in a bizarre location. I normally wear an 8, maybe a 6, but I could have taken a 4 in this style. It felt so nice on the skin and it was perfect for a formal event where many people also went a little more towards the cocktail dress. It does wrinkle after you sit down, but still worth the rental.

Perfect for Magic and Mystery
We had a night at a magic show and this fit the event perfectly. I worried that the keys might not stay in place, but the material is heavy and they were perfectly behaved. I will rent this again. I have slim hips and a small chest so it was good for me, but it does not offer much room in those two areas.

It is a pretty blue!
This is a really big shirt (although very pretty). The arm holes, neck line and body are very generous. Even with a strapless bra, it shows. I used tape to keep the top from flying open, but you will need to knot the loose strands as the cut is very low on your chest. The picture does not do justice to the cut of the shirt.

I couldn't wear it because it was too small at the hips and waist and I am a very typical size 8. Go a size up.

The stars make you stand out
The stars on this are gold so they add a little flair that made it a nice transition from work to an evening event. A little on the bigger side, but not so much that my typical size (med) didn't work. It was very comfortable.

Nice bright color.
This will fit pretty much anyone as it is basically a box shape. If you lean over you will be exposing a lot so I highly recommend using tape.

It was a black tie New Year's Eve event and perfect for the evening. I added black gloves.
I'm fairly tall at 5'7 and with heels this just touched the floor. Also, it is a little heavy so you want it snug around your chest. Like others said, the edge on the top is a little saggy, but I don't think anyone noticed. It was a lovely dress.

This dress was a great fit and I would wear it again.
I normally wear an 8 or 6 and the 6 was a perfect fit. Take the comments on length seriously. I am 5'7 and with platform, high heeled shoes, this dress still hit the ground. I did a lot of lifting of the dress. Though it is close fitting, because it has a little scrunching, it was very flattering even after eating dinner. If I had a chance to buy it, I would.
