Great fit, nice fabric.
We threw a 50s Housewife themed shower, I wanted to look like I fit in but not like I was wearing a costume. This dress nailed it! The scallop detail added charm, the fit was perfect, and the thickness of the fabric was appreciated on a chilly Spring day.

This dress was very comfortable and easy to wear for work.
It was a bit large in the chest for me, I wore a bralette underneath. The dress was also a little long on my stature, I found myself gathering up the bottom to go up stairs and get out of the car. Overall, good fit and I loved the look.

Great cut and fit, faulty neck closure
I loved the look of this dress- the fit was nice, and the dress was very comfortable and stylish. The problem was with the neck closure, it wouldn't stay closed. I didn't half the day asking people to help me buckle it back up.

Comically small
I rented this in a large, and the fit was rediculously small. It was insanely cropped, barely past my chest (and I am not large chested). So disappointing as it looked cute in photos.

Super cute, too tight in the thighs
I wanted to LOVE this dress, and I almost did. The fit in the thigh and rear area was so snug it was uncomfortable. The style, fabric, and fit everywhere else was great. Close, but no buy.

Great piece, lots of cleavage
I rented this for everyday wear, and was a little uncomfortable with the amount of cleavage. That aside, it was a great dress. Fun. comfy, and well made.

Ill fitting everyday dress.
I really wanted to love this dress! I rented it for work, wore it once, and can't wait to send it back. The neck line was cut very low and it was way too big. The dress would slump off the my shoulders and leave both breasts exposed had it not been for my Cami. Even with a Cami underneath, I had to tuck the top of the neck into the to of my straps- it flipped open that much. A shame, because it's such a cute design.

I rented this one for work, got tons of compliments, very comfy!
I loved how this looked, however the cut in the neckline is a little deep for me. I wore a tank top underneath. The top was also too large, so it hung of my shoulders a bit.

This dress was categorized as "bump friendly" and that it is NOT.
I was so disappointed in the fit of this dress. I am 7 and a half months pregnant and chose this dress because it was listed as "bump friendly". The band under the breast is extremely tight, and that is right where my bump starts to bump. Due to this, I had to bunch it up under my breasts, which made the fit in the breast area even worse than what others have expressed. This dress also has a side zipper, so it is not as flowing and loose as it looks in the photos., and I was unable to zip it all the way.

I rented this dress for my sister's bridal shower, the color and style were PERFECT!
I was super excited to get this dress, I had been planning this night forever. The fit was perfect, which is amazing since I had a baby almost a year ago and my body is still not what it used to be. I loved how this dress made me look and feel. It was slimming through the stomach and hip due to the ombre from light to dark. I would wear this again!
