I rented this dress for my birthday party out on Fire Island and it made me feel really special and dressed up while not looking TOO too dressed up since it was a casual gathering on a boat. Super easy to move in and I was able to dance, sing and get on and off the boat with ease :-)

Loved the length - I wore it for a summertime casual outdoor wedding and needed a little pizzaz and this was it! Got a lot of compliments and they were not too heavy.

I wore this dress for a friend's outdoor wedding - it was supposed to be a "dressy casual" type-of wedding, so I wore this dress with sandals and dressed it up with a little black clip-on fascinator. It was 95 degrees outside and we were melting most of the day, but I felt comfortable in the dress. I got a lot of compliments on it and loved color - like a flamingo pink!

I can't add anything new to what the other reviewers have written, but I'll just say that I wore this for my birthday party and it was a hit! Sexy, colorful and really flattering.

Wow, I rented this dress based on other rave reviews and I have to agree...it fits like a glove and is SO flattering! It was so nice that I wore it to two different events that were a few days apart in different states, so I didn't have to worry about people noticing me wearing the same dress, (it was that nice....LOL!). I got a million compliments and I wore a strapless nude bra and also some nude shapewear underneath to make all the lumps and bumps disappear. Very pleased with the results :-)

I wore this dress for my family's formal portraits and it's one of my all-time favorite colors, so we're already off to a good start, there! I liked the higher hemline in the front, too and lacey details that are highlighted with delicate cap sleeves. However, it did seem to *diminish* my chest (not what most women want), and also is EXTREMELY clingy. Like, maybe I should have thrown on a second pair of Spanx clingy, ya dig? Anyway, if you have an amazing body, you'll rock this dress no problem. If you have a body with some trouble areas, make sure you do the behind-the-scene work needed to make yourself comfortable with how you look because there's no hiding anything in this gem :-)

This is not a color you see a lot in dresses--especially at weddings--but this was a more casual summer wedding at an art gallery, so I felt comfortable with wearing it there. I got a million compliments on it, and I felt I could dress it up however I wanted to, so I chose a black shrug with black python shoes and a black clutch with a gold chain belt. I would definitely say this color is more "mango" than a straight-up orange. I wore a strapless bra underneath and definitely felt like the strapless bodice on top was tight enough to keep the girls in place, but still enough room for me to boogie the night away!

I ordered size 10 & 12, (I usually wear a 10), but the bodice was SO tight trying to zip it up, I didn't want to rip it or worry about breathing all night so I opted for the size 12. The larger size was a bit looser, but a much better choice overall, especially if you are large-chested or have broad upper body! I have a post-baby pooch, so this design hid it perfectly :-)
