Love it!!
This fit great, and was very flattering. I wore it to a work event in early spring, and it was the perfect weight for the season. It's light and flowy, but not so lightweight that the lines of my bodysuit showed.

Felt great in this!
I rented a few different dresses to try for one occasion; this wasn't the one I chose, another one was more appropriate for the occasion, but I liked this one so much I made a point of going out the next night just so I'd get to wear it! I just felt so good in it, it was flattering, which is rare for me these days - I'm currently in the middle of losing baby-weight (after 5 mos I'm down 50 of the 80 I gained, but I'm still in a size 12 when I'm usually a 4).

May try again with correct size
So I didn't actually wear this because it was way too big - the only size available was XL, but I thought I'd give it a shot. I'm on my way back down in size after gaining 80lbs while pregnant, so I've kind of been all over the place in sizes. However, I'm going to keep this in mind for the future and may try again with a smaller size - it was a pretty dress, and nice and light as other reviews have said.

It has pockets!
I loved this dress for work, and got a lot of compliments on it. I felt really good in it, which is rare for me these days - I'm currently in the middle of losing baby-weight (after 5 mos I'm down 50 of the 80 I gained, but I'm still in a size 12 when I'm usually a 4). I wore this on a hot, muggy day in NYC, but this dress was nice and light - it's usually hard to find work-appropriate clothes that are comfortable on those days, but this dress was.

I loved this dress so much that I've considered finding it to buy. I at least want to rent it again!
I LOVED wearing this dress. I received a lot of compliments, the color is gorgeous, and it was very comfortable. The movement was fun - I was looking for a dress that would be good to dance in, and in this one I kept hoping the DJ would play more songs we could swing and salsa to, because this dress was made for twirling! The fabric was comfortable as well, I didn't overheat as my husband and I danced the night away. I can see why women with larger chests have mentioned issues with the fit - there's no stretch to the material, and the cut is low enough that you need just the right bra if you can't go without. I'm on the other side of the goldilocks conundrum, I'm a 34B, and I couldn't fill out the top without a bra; even with a lightly padded one, I used a little fashion tape on my bra cups to make sure that everything stayed covered as I moved, bent over, etc. I rented this dress for an out of town wedding; when I tried it on at home and found the right bra, the straps were just covered by the dress, so I planned to use fashion tape to keep them in place. I wish I had brought a bra-converter clip with me, too, because the tape didn't hold the straps throughout the night, and while my bra straps stayed covered most of the time, a clip or cross-back bra would have ensured they didn't show at all.
