Perfect holiday dress

Such a fun dress!
This was technically my backup dress but we had back-to-back events so I got to wear it. There is not much support through the chest so you definitely need to wear a strapless bra. I found the top of the dress a little puckered but it wasn't noticeable once it was on. This was great for me since I am short, it hit right above my shoes.

Great for short ladies
This fit true to size and had a band across the chest with a hook & eye so no bra was required! It's really hard for me to rent long dresses because I am only 5'0" so this was great; it wasn't too short in the front and barely trailed in the back. It was a little hard to zip up on my own so definitely get help. I felt great in the dress, didn't need a purse because of the pockets, and overall loved it.

Twist on a classic
I really loved this necklace - it was a great accent to the blue lace dress I rented. I liked that it was simple enough but with some bling and pearls. I tend to be boring when it comes to jewelry so this was a fun way to combine classic pieces that I soul normally wear!

Beautiful dress
I rented this for a fundraiser and it worked great. Being 4-months post partum no honestly wasn't sure what size I would be and should have ordered an 8 for backup. The 6 fit fine but was tight in the arms and chest for me. The 4 and 6 were decidedly different in color and lace pattern, both were beautiful but felt like they were maybe from different seasons for the designer. It was kinda weird but I would have been happy wearing either, they weren't that different.

Fit really well. Looked great but was really comfortable.
There was a slight rip in one of the side seams but you couldn't see it when it was on. But overall, loved the dress! Perfect for a fancy date night. Got tons of compliments.

Picked a great accessory
I got a pair of clip on earrings. They were really great for my dress, but a bit heavy so probably would have taken them off part way through the night. In a hurry to get out the door I forgot to put them on though! Would definitely do this again though since the accessory was perfect for the look.

Fantastic color but crazy long
This dress is seriously long. Some creative "hemming" was the only thing that allowed me to wear this dress at a normal length. I'm not sure if I'll be able to rent a long dress again just because I am short. The zipper was also a bit tight to zip up so make sure to have a friend/date on hand to help out. I'd also rent a size up vs. down for this dress. Overall I loved the color and style, got a ton of compliments, and loved the entire look. The dress itself is beautifully draped. I was just a bit nervous about the length. With 3" heels it was still about 4-5" too long. Would love if this dress could come in a short option.

Classic silhouette, fun color!
Fit true to size, although the back was a bit loose by the top of the zipper, but not gaping. Loved that it had snaps to hold bra straps in place---GENIUS!! When I first opened the box the dress had a bit of a weird smell, kinda like moth balls or possibly from the printing of the garment bag? I let it hang for about a day in the closet and didn't notice it when I wore the dress. Other than that, absolutely loved it, easy to dance in, felt great in it.

Elegance
Definitely get the size smaller than you normally wear. I'm normally a 2 but wore a 0 for this rental. The fit can be described as fits just so you look great but with enough room that you feel comfortable eating and dancing. I had read similar statements in other reviews and was like that's kinda odd but seriously it is true and awesome! The wedding we were at had amazing food and the dress left enough room that I could eat it all! More importantly, I felt great the whole day in the dress, got tons of compliments and had fun!

Comfy cute dress
I wore this dress for a day on the town being touristy with a friend. It fit true to size although the button top didn't fit that great over my chest, opened a bit/slightly puckered, nothing major, aka I didn't hang out, but just a little bit. I loved it and would love to have it in my closet permanently
