Felt so classy
I wore this for an event at the governor's mansion and wanted to look perfectly classy among a bunch of government employees. This was a lovely upgrade from my own LBD. The fabric is thick and hugs your body with the most perfect neckline and back. I paired it with a pink cardigan, pearls, and classy black heels and got to pose with the governor of Virginia without feeling over- or under-dressed!

Felt like a movie star!
I loved this dress - it was so flowy and I felt so beautiful in it and got compliments all night! I rented a 4 and a 6 and ended up wearing the 4... The 6 was just overall too big on me (I wear anywhere froma 4 to an 8 depending on how a brand or designer cuts their clothes). The one thing I would caution you on is that the slit is VERY high (mid thigh) and will reveal your crotch if you sit wrong in it. Also, I am very flat chested, so I had to use some fashion tape to keep from revealing myself up top... But that happens to me with 90% of the dresses I wear and I expected that to happen.

Pretty dress, but clearly very popular...
I rented this dress for a work party, and I was really excited about it... Until I tried it on. It fit okay (less stretchy than I had hoped) but the dress had been clearly worn many, many times because there was fraying and torn lace all over it. I felt frumpy in it and ended up wearing a dress I already owned instead. But I think if you get a newer dress, you will love it! The open back is sooo pretty!

Gorgeous, comfortable, flattering dress
I wore it for my squad's banquet, which is super formal (the guys were tuxes). I got compliments about the dress all night and even after the event. It was comfortable to wear and hid any imperfections. And seriously - rent it and have someone take a picture as you twirl around - the skirt floats so gently!
