Would wear again
It only runs small in the waistband area. Zipper was especially tough to get up in that area. Skirt material was easily wrinkled, but can be hidden with the dark color. V neck pattern is very low. So either wear with pasties or no bra (lace pattern is thick enough to provide coverage).

Formal but mobile!
Wore this for a wedding where I was wrangling 2 kids under 5 and it worked perfectly! First, the back is so low that you do not need a second pair of hands to help you zip up in the dress. Then there is a slit in the front that goes up a little past the knees. The photos don't show it. But this was a huge plus. Made getting up and down very easy and while on hot days, you can hike up the dress while sitting down and its like you're wearing a short shirt. And the neckline is elegant enough to make this mobile dress look formal.

An OK outfit
In my opinion, the waist runs small. Size everywhere else was okay. Top area is a little odd to work with. Its got excess fabric at the top, I think the designer was going for a ruffled look, but when you pair it with a cardigan the excess fabric just sticks out. Can only be worn as is. No cardigan or other type of cover.

Clip ons!
Didn't realize these were clip ons! Looked great. But they are heavy. Gave me a headache after a few hours. And my hair kept getting stuck in the chains.

Form fitting
Material is very form fitting. I recommend using shapewear under the dress. The one I had showed a little wear on the sleeves. Neck area was a little snug. If you do not like the feeling of turtlenecks, I do not recommend this dress.

Perfect diaper bag
Used this as a classy diaper bag since we were attending a formal event and it was perfect. Fit everything! Diapers, wipes, extra clothes for 2 children, snacks and sippy cups (in a sealed ziploc bag) and more. And there is a detachable clutch inside that came in handy just to use by itself. And there is a zippered pouch on the side of the bag, perfect for a phone. Highly recommend! Only downside is the braided straps are not the most comfortable. But otherwise I was highly considering buying this bag!

Modest black dress
The fabric is heavy - almost like a sweater. So I recommend for winter or cold nights. My only complaint is the neck. It felt tight and uncomfortable around the neck area - like it was a little too small. I had to let the zipper down.

Perfect outfit
I normally wear 12, but this fit just fine. I don't recommend for people who have back rolls since the back is quite exposed. But the middle piece is placed just right so you can wear your everyday bra with this outfit and it won't show. And it's very comfortable!

Not too short little black dress
I was modestly surprised. Dress is not as short as it seems in the photo. Standing up, if you pull the dress all the way down, it reaches the top of your knees. And sitting down, its only about 5-6" from the knee. So it is very appropriate even for an event with grandma. The wide open top still gives it a sexy flair. Only con is dress is a bit scratchy and itchy, even with the liner inside the dress.

Very snug
This dress was tight. And front was low cut. Looked great but I prefer comfort over looks. The straps kept falling off. This dress is meant for someone with a long torso.

Great fabric
Dress was in great condition. Showed off the shape without showing too much. Great for a mom who has to look good and chase down a toddler. I probably could have fit in a 10 but wanted to be able to move freely in the dress,

Was hoping it would fit more
I got the rental to hold the bride's phone and some essentials for the day off. It only fit the phone :( Otherwise good purse for a night out.

Not as conservative as it looks!
I was worried that the dress looked too conservative for my bachelorette party. Not true! Very cute and form fitting. I don't have much going on top but the dress still complemented my assets. I do have some junk in the trunk and I'm tall so the bottom half looked awesome. Only drawback is the dress did look a little worn. The sequins do snag on things. But that's about the only cons to the dress.
