Great colors, sexy party dress
I loved the colors of the dress. I was more comfortable the Small but the bust was loose so I went with the XS. This dress shows off every inch of your body. It does not hide any stomach issues, so if you're self-conscious about showing all of you, I'd steer away from this dress. Otherwise, it's a great dress, I got many compliments and the colors were vibrant in person.

Great dress for a party or fun night out!
This dress was very comfortable. Given the see-through panels and the open back, I'd recommend it more for the small busted, as I don't see how you could wear a bra with it. I didn't wear one. Unless the flash is on on your camera, it's hard to pick up the beautiful detail on this dress in photos. In person, I received a lot of compliments. I'm 5'2"...I think if you're tall, this would definitely be a mini dress on you, but on me it was a perfect length. Fit was true to size and hides any stomach imperfections you may be worried about.

Look No More Dress

Comfortable, flattering dress
This dress was pretty true to size. I could have worn the 0 or the 2...I really couldn't tell the difference between the two sizes. I ended up doing the 2 only because I figured if I was going out to dinner, might as well size up. LOL. The dress was really comfortable and I liked the ruching. The purple was vibrant in person and looked great in photos. The dress worked with my strapless bra, no problem.

Wasn't in love but it worked for a fun night out
I'm 5'2" and I felt like the dress was very long on me. I rented the S and the XS. I ended up wearing the XS and felt like it was a touch too big. It didn't quite hold me in as I thought it would. I also didn't like the color in person...I felt like it was more vibrant in the photo. The dress was great quality and I feel like it would be better suited for someone a bit taller. If you have any sort of stomach pooch, this dress will not be your friend. Some bandage dresses pull you in, but I think this dress would accentuate it more than pull it it in. I didn't wear a bra with the dress and I was fine.

Sparkle sparkle
I soooo wanted to love this dress. It's a very pretty dress, however it just didn't fit me properly or look good on me. I put the dress on and it gave me no shape whatsoever...it just sort of hung there. I am also small busted, so again, it just didn't really flatter me. The color was great and the sequins all appeared to be in good shape. I feel like the dress is better suited for someone taller.

Great for a holiday party
This was perfect for a holiday party I went to. It fit perfectly in the chest area, but was looser than I expected in the waist/stomach area. This ended up working out in my favor though so I didn't have to worry about sucking in all night. ;) It is a very comfortable dress and I received lots of compliments on it. I found that it could be worn with or without a bra, depending on what you need in terms of support. I ended up buying this dress online because I liked it so much!!

Knot So Fast Dress

The great colors on the dress!
This dress was worn for my birthday celebration and I received a TON of compliments from strangers and from friends. The dress fits true to size, but it is loose fitting so it hides any flaws you may have. I had to be sure to tie the bow tightly in the back so the dress didn't fall off my shoulders. If I had left it loose, it would have been an off the shoulder dress. It is a heavier dress due to the beading. It looks fantastic on and it photographs really well.

Great dress
This dress is super comfortable and runs true to size. It's flowy and elegant and would cover any stomach issues. I wore it to a red capet event and got tons of compliments. I did not need a bra with it, as it is padded and fit perfectly. The color was a beautiful, vibrant red. The length was great and just skimmed the floor enough without my tripping over it.

Beautiful dress but tight
I got many many compliments on this dress throughout the night. It looked fabulous on, but I could barely breathe. The dress is loose and flowy on the bottom, but for some reason they decided to put boning, like a corset, in the top part of the dress. Had the boning not been in the dress, it would have made for a much more comfortable fit. Had I gone a size up, then it would have been too loose. Overall it was a stunning, flowy dress that was perfect for my date night or would be great for a wedding. Just beware that the top half of the dress is beyond tight.

Beautiful details
I wore this dress to a wedding and received many compliments. The detailing on the dress was very pretty and the fabric made it a great choice for the outdoor, evening wedding I attended. My only complaint on the dress was that the layers in the hip/back of dress area do tend to make it a touch unflattering. It sort of looks bumpy the way the material falls. But overall the dress looked good and was comfortable to wear and fit true-to-size.

Great for an evening out
This dress was the perfect cocktail dress for a date night I had. I definitely think it tends to run on the smaller side. If you're like me and self conscious of your stomach, you might want to reconsider this dress...it shows everything, despite the ruching. It is very form fitting, the beading is beautiful. My only complaint about this dress is the back. It kept bunching up after I had zipped it, which made it look like it didn't fit properly in the back.
