I wore this to a company awards dinner and got tons of compliments! I went with the larger of the two sizes since I knew I would be sitting for a majority of the night and didn't want any skin coming out through the cut outs on the side. The fabric is similar to a suit material, which I don't think really comes out in pictures. The dramatic cut makes it super easy to just throw on a statement necklace and be ready to go without a ton of accessories.

I had originally ordered this for an outdoor summer birthday party, but the day before my order was scheduled to arrive, I got an email that my backup size was unavailable because it had been returned in poor condition. The stylist went totally above and beyond and gave me 2 other dresses for free, one of which I ended up loving and wearing to the party! I wore this to dinner with a friend and loved the easy, relaxed fit and how it looked on. The only thing I would change is that I wish the dress had adjustable straps! I wore with a nude strapless bra and light pink thong and didn't have any lines or show through, for those that had commented about issues with the dress being see-through.

I loved the color and fabric of this dress for an outdoor summer wedding. My backup size (4) was not available, and I think that had I gotten that size, I would have given this dress 5 stars. Even with a push-up strapless bra, the top was a bit loose, and the dress zipped up SUPER easily, so that made me feel comfortable in it (not self conscious at all), but that it was not the most flattering possible fit. It fit the bill (and the price was right), but I didn't feel that WOW factor when I put it on.

I wore this dress to my 10 year high school reunion and felt great in it! I was orignally a bit nervous about sizing (had ordered a 6, 8 was unavailable, and thought I wanted something to compare it to so got the 4), and ended up liking the way the 4 fit better! The material is stretchy and I wore Spanx underneath just to be comfortable, but did not feel they were a necessity. Also, the top part of the dress is a bit snug, so I probably could have gotten away without a bra. I got tons of compliments on this dress and thought it was perfect for an outdoor summer evening event.

I ordered both a 6 and and an 8, and as other reviews mentioned, the fit was actually pretty similar. I tried on both sizes several times (with and without Spanx), and felt that the 6 with Spanx fit almost the exact same as the 8 without, and just for photos, felt more comfortable in the 6.
