Great NYE dress
I went with the large bc of other reviews and glad I did. Very comfortable. Not too tight but definitely form fitting from the waist up. It’s very sparkly and I love the ombré look going from dark purple to dark pink.

Comfy and sexy
I loved this dress. The brown is a nice color for Fall. The one shoulder and slit are sexy. Didn’t need a bra and everything stayed in place. The slit is high but was able to keep it in check throughout the night. There is some stretch to it so it’s comfortable.

Beautiful color and very comfortable
This was my back up dress so I didn’t wear it. The color is a beautiful dark pink but it wasn’t complimentary to my skin color. That being said, I loved the fit. You can tape the chest closed like I did. There is plenty of stretch to it.

Size up
I absolutely loved this romper but it was a size too small. Would rent again but a larger size.

Fun for NYE night out
This dress was great! I wore the size 8. It’s stretchy so it has some give to it. Length was perfect hitting the mid thigh. I could wear a regular bra. Overall I really enjoyed it. That flap piece down the middle of the dress gave it a slightly different look vs your typical sequin bodycon dress. I only have 2 complaints: 1. There’s shoulder pads in it. Very thin ones but I am broad shouldered so I felt like this accentuated it. 2. The sequins kept getting caught on themselves. At one point both of my arms were stuck to the sides of my dress. Although it was funny, it was also frustrating and I was so scared to create pulls on the dress trying to free myself.

Elegant and comfortable
I rented this as my back up for new years. Went with my first choice but it was a tough decision to make because I really liked this dress too. This dress is classy and hugs the right places. Material is soft and has a touch of sparkle. You can wear a regular bra. Definitely perfect for a black tie or wedding.

Beautiful but the straps
This dress is beautiful but I didn’t wear it for a couple of reasons. Like others, I agree that the straps are way too long. I have them pinned back in the picture. Nbd to do that though. But I didn’t wear it because it bunched up on the zipper side and wouldn’t stay down. And in certain light, especially pictures, you can see my stomach.

Great color and cool straps
Overall it fit well…little snug on top but it helped with support. You can wear a bra with thin straps. Vibrant color. Nice material.

Dresses up your outfit
Rented this for a wedding. My dress was very basic looking but this added that flare that made my outfit look dressy. It also holds the necessities (phone, keys, makeup, etc.) without any issues. I packed a good bit of necessities and it stayed closed.

Definitely Prom Dress Appropriate
I read the reviews and still took a chance renting the dress. Like others said, 1) it's very pink (like Madonna Material Girl dress pink) and 2) definitely prom dress appropriate. So I didn't wear it. I felt awkward wearing this dress at my age. But the cut is very flattering and if I was 20 years younger, I would've worn it in a heartbeat.

Very cool cut but material was too thick
I rented this for a wedding but did not wear because it ended up being an 80 degree day in mid October. The dress is a stretchy material but too thick and I was very hot in it. It was also a smidge too big. But I may rent this again for a future event - weather pending :).

Classy and comfortable
This is a classy dress! The cut is flattering, breathable (not super tight/form fitting) and the bustle in the back is tastefully done. It looks very basic on the hanger but once you put it on and add jewelry, it looks very formal and elegant. The color is more of a blood orange but very close to red. I also love how I could wear a regular bra - no taping, no strapless, backless contraptions needed!

Very Thin Material
This is a pretty dress but not for formal affairs. Definitely great for vacations though. It won't matter how broad shouldered or busty you are, this dress is very big up top. Wear tape. Nude garments are a must. Or it's good for over top of a bathing suit. Wrinkles very easily.

Beautiful material!
This was a back up dress so I didn't wear it bc I liked my first choice. This is a beautiful dress though. It's a little tight in the chest and rib cage but loosens up at the waist. Size up if you're busty. Otherwise it's true to size. It's very long so size down on the length. There's a lot of layers of material in the shirt. So it's actually warmer and heavier than it looks. I think this would be great for those who are expecting, bridesmaids or even mothers of the brides/grooms.

Beautiful color!
Like other reviews, I agree that this dress is long. I am 5'6" and wore 3 inch heels. It was just barely above the shoe. So size down on the length especially if you want to wear flats. It is true to size (S,M,L) but if you want more coverage up top, especially if you're busty, and to wrap it around you more, size up. I taped it around the cleavage and the belly so it didn't blow all the way open. I wore a navy blue pashmina scarf bc it was a chilly spring wedding. It matched well. Definitely wear nude undergarments. The color is gorgeous! The material is silky soft. I really loved this dress!

The colors go with anything
You'll get many compliments in this dress! The dress is tight in the chest but fits true to size elsewhere. So size up if you're a busty person and wear tape! There are so many colors in this dress that it goes with anything. There are two layers in the skirt to hide the belly but it can be hot. Wore this to a July wedding and survived the short outdoor ceremony. It is fun to walk in because the back of the dress flows nicely. I would rent this again!

Best postpartum dress!
I was 5 weeks postpartum and this dress was perfect for my body. Very comfortable and flattering. Runs a little big in the chest and shoulders. Definitely use tape.

Sexy and comfortable
I float between a 6 & 8 and wore the 8. The other reviews described it being tight in the hips, but it was more so tight around the lower rib cage, just below your bust. I did have to pin it at the chest because every time I sat down, the V line expanded and everything was exposed. I'm a 36DDD and didn't feel restricted in the bust at all. Overall I really enjoyed wearing this dress.
