Great Wedding Guest Dress
This dress was perfect for a June wedding. It wasn't too thick of material that it was too hot but it was a good thickness and forgiving for some areas I wanted to conceal. At 5'5" it fell just above my knee and at no time did it feel too short or shimmy up. I loved the extra flow of material at the top, with the high neck it really dressed up the dress without needing a necklace. The color online looked more maroon but when it came in it was a dark fuchsia/pink, loved the color even more in person. Would highly recommend

Classy in the front too much of a party in the back
I expected the bottom to be a bit more fitted. I like the the high neck of the top but the back didn't go well with the style of the front. The strap that goes across the back isn't classy looking for what the front had to offer.

Doesn't fit well
If you don't have much on top this dress isn't for you. I'm a 34B and couldn't wear it whatsoever. The straps were too long and wouldn't stay up, the cut in the front was about halfway between my chest and belly button. The bottom half fit great and would have been a nice dress to wear if the top was constructed better. At 5'5" the dress hit below my knees but at a good tea length it wasn't awkward.

great for a dressier dinner party.
I wore this to a dressier dinner party in AZ and it was perfect! Received many compliments on the dress and the length was perfect for me. I wore it with a shorter heel and I'm 5'5". The only thing that was a tad uncomfortable was sitting down in the stress and trying to sit with good posture. The boning in the front went too low for my torso length and ended up settling in a spot that jabbed me all night while I sat. Otherwise this dress was a great choice for an all night event.

Gorgeous off the shoulder dress perfect for a dinner event.
I absolutely loved this dress, unfortunately I could only give it 4 stars due to the fact it was made enormous on the top. The large fit my size 10 body very well except in the top. I'm smaller in the top but you would need to be very filled out in order to properly fit it. I did end up using clothing tape to keep the top close to my body so that when I bent over it wouldn't gap. Couldn't even tell it was taped and the rest of it looked great all night. I'm 5'5" and wore it with flat sandals. It was a little long for flats but with even a small heel it would have been a better length.

brought the outfit together
This was a beautiful and reasonably priced necklace to rent. It went well with the dress that I ended up wearing. First time renting accessories and I would definitely do it again.

very light and comfortable!
This dress was perfect for a more casual country wedding. It fit like a glove up top and flowed out at the waist which made for a much lighter feel in the hot august weather. i loved the high neck and the open key hole back. very flattering, the lace doesn't look cheap which i was pleased about. would definitely recommend this dress!

very flattering dress. loved the neckline!
This dress fit like a glove! It hugged in all the right spots and was very forgiving. It was the perfect length for me, I'm 5'5" and had 3.5 inch heels on. It was a thick well made material with a very flattering neckline! The color was a dark periwinkle blue. Perfect for a formal event. The shoulders stayed in place no problem as the dress has some stretch to it.
