Amazing color!
Gorgeous color! It's an even more vibrant shade of magenta in person. Flattering fit but roomy--definitely could have gone a size down for a more form-fitting look. Really easy and comfortable. If you're taller you may want to go with the longer length. I'm 5'5 and wore heels that are probably 2-2.5 inches, and that was perfect, but if the heels were any higher it might not have worked. Would love to wear this dress again!!

So comfortable and flattering fit
I didn't think much of the pattern of this dress online but I saw a photo of a friend wearing it and was impressed! I'm so glad I rented it. Hugs all the right places. Runs a tiny bit big, which I don't mind because it is form fitting. It is the sweatpants of dresses. Considering buying!

Perfect, easy
Rented this for a barn wedding, and I'm going to wear it to a country club wedding, too! Very comfortable and no bra required! I was a tiny bit nervous about slips but I danced all night and didn't think twice amount it--definitely stayed well in place. Could be dressed down and worn during any season! Really a great piece. I'm usually a 2-4 in dresses and the 2 was perfect.

Comfy boot cut work pants
I was hoping for more of a skinny leg for more of a tailored look, but these are still cute and very comfortable. I love not dealing with buttons and zippers and waist bands that cut into me when sitting down at a desk most of the day!

Just okay
Seemed to fit well, a little frumpy in the crotch area if you know what I mean--kind of bunched.

Runs very large in the waist
Seemed cute and comfy, but way too big in the waist. I'm usually a 4, and these sagged. Maybe I just need to size down for Theory pants? Will try next time.

Slimming but not the most comfortable
I wanted to love these pants. I thought they were more of a pencil than boot cut, but didn't mind because they are very flattering and hug the right places, and loose enough to look professional. However, they are uncomfortable to sit in. The waist band digs in at a funky spot when seated. Close but no cigar!

Gorgeous but high maintenance!
Loved the way this dress looked, but looks can be deceiving! Super fun and flattering and got tons of compliments, especially on the color. BUT - it is a bit roomy in the chest (even though I'm a 34C/32D) and required lots of tape. It also wasn't the easiest to dance in. Worth it though!

Easy and classic
Perfect in every way! Simple, comfortable, flattering, can be worn with a strapless bra. Danced the night away at an 8 hour wedding in this dress!

Cute and versatile
Very comfortable and cute! Wasn't too short or too revealing in the chest. Super versatile. Wore to work and a backyard summer barbecue. Only draw back is that it is a pain to get on and off - have to really work to pull it over your shoulders.
