Classy and stylish, yet sexy and fun!
I loved this dress and so did everyone else at the wedding! I was worried that the cutouts on the side would be too loose so I ordered a 0 as my backup, but I was worried for nothing. The sides were snug and fit just fine in the 2, which was great because the band across the waist in the 0 was a little tight and didn't give much room for eating/drinking/dancing later. The color was beautiful (actually more pink than the red that the photos of the model show) and the fit was super flattering. I would definitely rent this dress again, especially since it's also available in black!

Great print!
The length was perfect for a wedding, the print was amazing, but I felt like I was the wrong body type for this dress. It's definitely designed for someone with less curves, as the hips were really tight, but the sides by the stomach and back area were a little baggy. Nothing noticeable by others, I just wanted it to feel tighter fitting. I feel like this would really work perfectly for someone with a straighter shape. I got a ton of compliment on the print and it was so beautiful in person. I'd consider renting this dress again in the size 0 but I would be worried about the fit in the hip area.

Looks phenomenal!
This dress runs VERY true to size. Once it's zipped up, there is very little wiggle room in the rib cage area. The material, which looks just like leather, doesn't have much give but looks so great on. I received compliments all night. The dress is very heavy (short, but weighed like 6 pounds!) so I wouldn't recommend it for a hot outdoor affair.

Too Long
The material was gorgeous, the best sequins I've ever seen, but the dress was simply too long for me to wear. There is a lot of material at the bottom of this dress and if it's too long, you will be tripping over it all night. I put on a pair of almost 6" heels and I was still stepping on the front of the dress. Decided to exchange it for something else so I didn't worry about falling. Also, the end of the zipper created a bulge, which looked a little bit like a tail so you'll want to tape that down..

Fit and felt great!
This dress was super flattering and hugged all the right places. Dressy enough for a formal wedding, but still very comfortable. Only complaint was the dress slid down like a typical strapless dress so prepare for plenty of hike-ups.

Pretty Earrings
Not heavy at all. I was able to wear them all night long, which is a feat for me and large earrings. They got a little lost in my hair so I would suggest renting them if you plan on wearing your hair up for the evening.

Perfect fall wedding dress!
The dress was really comfortable, which was unexpected for lace. I wore it to a wedding and received lots of compliments. The color is more of a deep purple than the dark red shown on the model. I wore my regular size with my dress, but would suggest getting your second dress a size down. The fit is loose, but still flattering. I really liked it.
