Stunning
Wish I grabbed a good floor length of this. Wore to gala and received compliments all night, it definitely stood out! Fit like a glove, the color and fabric was very luxe. Like others mentioned, you definitely can’t go without double sided tape. I could see this being an issue dress for bigger chests but worked like a dream on my smaller one.

Perfect Spring Transitional Piece
Perfect for those who still have colder temps in April but want a touch of pastel for the spring season. Wore casually, was super cute and comfortable.

Sexy and comfortable!
For petites/smaller on top with a full bottom: I was totally on the fence with this dress because I fall between sizes and was worried if I went with the suggested XS, it would be way too small for my hips and butt (40in hips. but very narrow chest and smaller breasts for ref). However, the XS was honestly perfect for a ‘fit like a glove’ aesthetic. I think I could have gone up to S BUT, it would have been more of a ‘boxy’ look. I did use fashion tape to keep the lapels down as it is a plunge neckline—ladies with bigger breasts might need something under—and I also used a bit of it under the lapels against the dress since they got folded weird in the RTR bag. Dress is definitely short, I probably wouldn’t feel comfortable wearing without tights or undershorts of some kind, so just be aware. Super comfortable and I got a lot of compliments on it throughout the evening. The “runs large” held true in that an XS worked for both my upper and lower half of my body which almost never happens.

Comfy and cute
I loved this dress. It’s super comfortable, the fabric is thick enough for you to not need a bra if you’re smaller chested like me, and it hit to just above my ankle on my 5’2” frame. It gets a little wrinkled while traveling. It was a great sight seeing dress.

Beautiful
I wore this to a wedding in Lisbon and was getting compliments on it all night. It’s long for short girls, so you’ll need a platform heel. It has corset-like boning in the top, but it’s very comfortable. This dress does not wrinkle, so it’s perfect to take with you on a destination wedding! Slit comes up very high.

Romantic summer dress
I wore this on vacation in Lisbon and I stayed cool despite the heat and length of this dress. The fabric does wrinkle, but the pattern hides it very well. Difficult to iron, I’d recommend using a steamer. I’m short and wore this with an espadrille sandal and only had to gather the front while walking up stairs. The elastic in the arms get a bit tight after a while.

Cute
Wish I got a pic in this. Fabric is heavy and it is short, even on my frame, so you have to be careful when bending over. Overall thought it was a cute party dress.

Perfect summer cocktail party dress
I received endless compliments on this dress, which I wore to a cocktail party in Lisbon. As a 5’2” woman, this dress was longggg on me, even with a high heel. Cutout ran to my bellybutton for that reason, but it ended up working out and not being an issue. Fabric is super lightweight and doesn’t wrinkle, even in luggage during an 8 hour flight. Fit like a glove, considering buying.

Wore for a date, was cute and comfortable. Dress is more of a scuba material, it doesn’t have a zipper.

Summery Top
Loved. Very romantic and a cute but casual summer look. Paired with a white linen pant and nude platforms. The fabric is pretty thick and holds a lot of heat, is the only negative.

Sexy Date Night Option
I was apprehensive to rent this dress because I’m short and smaller breasted with a narrow ribcage. However, this dress fit like a glove on me and both my husband and I were obsessed with this as my date night outfit! Length was a solid maxi on my 5’2” frame, and the deep plunge, low back and boob cutout was no issue with my sticky bra. The color combo really made my hair and skin pop. The only negative I would say is the material is pretty thick for such a summery print and cut, which made it a little hot at times to dine outside. I would consider renting this again for a Miami trip.

Baby Shower Perfect
I wore this to my sister-in-law’s baby shower and the dress could not have been more perfect: I got sooo many compliments while wearing this. I’m petite, so sometimes too much frill and puff can swallow me, but that was not at all the case with this dress. It hung about mid thigh for me at 5’2” and the only negatives I experienced were that I needed to use fashion tape on the chest, and that the zipper tends to get a bit stuck at the midsection, where the fabric is overlayed with lace. I would just recommend greasing the zipper before putting it on.

Cute and flattering
I wore this to my birthday dinner and instantly loved it the second I tried it on. The bodice is snug but not uncomfortable, and it makes your boobs look great. The small cut outs on the sides are a subtle but cute touch, it isn’t the focus of the dress. Fabric didn’t wrinkle too easily. A great dress option for those with wider hips and full butts but a small waist and breasts.
