Beautiful and very high quality!
Super comfortable and easy to dance in. Perfect dress for me since I was 10 weeks postpartum so it hid anything I was insecure about.

I felt like a beautiful disco ball!
Dressed up as our childhood dream jobs for my 30th birthday. I wanted to be an actress/famous and boy did I feel famous in this dress! Endless compliments all night. Super comfortable and really fun to dance in. I fit in both the 4L and the 6R but went with 6R since I wanted to wear flats. The R would have been too short with heels. Definitely get the long option if you are over 5'6 and plan to wear any sort of heel. Everyone needs to wear a dress like this at some point in their life!

So comfortable and fun!
The small and medium both fit but I ultimately chose medium for a little more length and the medium arrived a little less wrinkled. Someone mentioned a lot of cleavage but I didn't have that problem, however too much cleavage is never really an issue in my life (#smallboobclub). I received a lot of compliments and had a lot of fun wearing it. The best part was I was super comfortable all night!

Fun color and great fit!
Loved wearing this dress! It was a fun color but not overbearing. I thought it was perfect for a summer wedding. Danced in it, sat comfortably for dinner in it, and wore it long after the wedding was over for the after party. I didn't want to take it off! I'm bigger on the bottom and smaller on top and I thought this dress was a great fit since it wasn't snug on my hips but it also gave you a great shape and cut.

Didn't end up wearing- made me look like a box.
Didn't end up wearing this as the cut made my body look like a complete box with a short torso when I'm actually the complete opposite of this. I'm bigger on the bottom and smaller on top and this dress was totally unflattering in every possible way. I unfortunately didn't get to wear it for the brunch like I had planned to after my wedding.

Didn't end up wearing. The sleeves felt too ridiculous!
On the model the sleeves hit and fit right around her forearm. However, my dress that was sent was stretched so badly that the arms looked like I was trying to be Princess Jasmine. Didn't end up wearing to my rehearsal dinner.

Perfect for my bridal shower
Liked the length and cut and pockets! I wore the 6 but the 4 fit too. I'm bigger on the bottom and small on the bottom. This particular dress isn't tight on the bottom so it didn't really matter. In the end I went with the 6 because I thought it was in better shape than the 4 was. For bigger chests I would definitely go with the bigger size if you are between sizes.

Super comfortable and very sexy open back!
I LOVED this dress so much! I wish it was always in my closet because it's such an amazing dress. The regular length was perfect for my height and the straps fit absolutely perfect across my back. I have bigger hips but I'm smaller on top so anything flowy I absolutely love. The earrings were rented as well and I loved those just as much. One con is it did arrive wrinkled but I steamed it and it was good as new. This is a great dress if you don't have a long way to drive in the car so it won't wrinkle.

Stood out in a good way!
I wore this for the evening portion of my bachelorette party and got numerous compliments. When we were dancing in a bar all my friends said the dress lit up the floor. I have a smaller frame in top compared to my bottom so I thought the 6 looked better over my bottom half, however the 4 still fit just fine. I you have super sensitive skin you might not like the sequins near the armpits but honestly I only noticed it the first few minutes of wearing the dress and then got used to it. Definitely a show stopping and amazing dress!

Fun and perfect for my bachelorette party !
I wore this during the day portion for my bachelorette party where we all got hair and makeup done like pinup girls and had so much fun wearing it. It was such a fitting dress for the occasion and very comfortable. I didn't wear it with a bra since the back is sheer which wasn't a problem since there is enough support for a smaller chest without one. I have wider hips but I'm very small on the top so I'm happy the 4 I wore worked and fit really well everywhere.
