Beautiful color!
Received many compliments on the dress. Ended up going with the larger, back up size as I'm busty and there is no stretch in the top. Wore a regular, nude bra and you couldn't see it. The boning ended up poking me by the end of the wedding, but for a one time wear, it was fine. Really loved the color!

Beautiful dress for a black tie wedding
This dress was perfect for a black tie wedding I had, but the fit was a bit weird. The size 8 (normal size) wouldn't come close to zipping and the 6 zipped perfectly. I rent a size regular but at 5'2" I probably could have gone with the P. I had on heels and the dress was still dragging on the floor. I received many compliments all night. Be sure to pack a safety pin or double stick tape if you don't want the neckline to be so plunging!

Good dress for baptism
I wore this dress for my daughter's baptism. I wore one size down from my normal size. The fabric is very stretchy and very thick. It reminded me of the material of the foam blocks kids jump into at a gymnastics place. I would not recommend it for a summer wedding as I think it would be too thick. The skirt on the dress is very full so I felt a little drowned in fabric. I think pairing it was a skinny belt would help but I unfortunately didn't pack one!

Perfect dress for a summer wedding
This dress was perfect for a summer wedding. The color is absolutely gorgeous. They weren't able to send a 6 so I only had the 8 to review. The 8 (44) fit well in the bust (no stretch if you are busty), but the skirt was a bit full. Probably would have been better in the 6, but hard to say without trying it out. I got a lot of compliments on the dress and the color. The back wasn't as noticeably longer as it looks on the model. Really cute - would definitely rent again.

Beautiful dress for a black tie event
I absolutely loved this dress. If you are curvy, I would recommend going a size up as there is NO stretch in the fabric at all. I would also recommend wearing spanx as it was pretty easy to see underwear lines. I wore a strapless black bra - my hair covered it in the back, but you might be able to see depending on where the dress / lace hits you. I am short and the dress came to about mid calf on me. The lace looks gorgeous in pictures. If you are going to a wedding and you intend to do a lot of dancing, think twice about this one. The sleeves make it difficult to lift your arms above your head. I would definitely rent again for a black tie event - I received a ton of compliments.

Beautiful colors
Really loved this dress. The colors on it are beautiful. Both sizes I ordered fit, but I went with the smaller size since the skirt wasn't as full on that one.

Great color!
Loved this dress - the color was very bold and definitely stood out. I got a lot of compliments (especially because I wore around St. Patrick's Day). It's pretty true to size, though since it's a wrap dress, it's more forgiving. It was VERY difficult to keep it closed though. I used all of the fashion tape that came with my dress and I was still checking it all night to make sure my bra wasn't showing.

Beautiful color and loved the belt!
Great dress - color looked great in pictures. Dress definitely runs small, especially for curvy girls. There is NO stretch in the skirt part of the dress. I sized up and it still felt small to me and the top started to become baggy. Overall though, I did receive a lot of compliments and I loved the detail of the attached belt.

Perfect for a wedding rehearsal! Loved the color of the dress!
Loved this dress! I wore it for my wedding rehearsal and rehearsal dinner and I got a TON of compliments. I wore the smaller size, but either really would have worked. I liked that the skirt wasn't as full in the smaller size. The dress is a beautiful rose/blush color with a silver shimmer. It looks great in all of my photos! I would definitely rent this again.

I got a lot of compliments on how beautiful the dress looked!
I wore this dress for my bridal shower and got a TON of compliments. It was the perfect dress for the occasion...the only reason I gave it 4 stars was because the slip underneath kept bunching and wouldn't lay flat - you can see it in the pictures. I'm very curvy so it could've been just my body type. Overall a good dress!

Cute summer dress!
I rented this dress for the brunch the day after our wedding. It was really cute and I got a lot of compliments on it. This was a back up dress so I only rented one size - I could have gone a size down. I have a full bust and the dress still kept falling down / folding over. I also read in the other reviews that some other renters were getting jabbed by something in the corset. I assumed this would have been fixed by now so I rented anyway, but I had the same problem. I had to keep adjusting how I was sitting so I wouldn't get jabbed in the rib cage. Cute dress overall though.

Perfect for my bachelorette!
I loved this dress and got a lot of compliments. It was perfect for my bachelorette party. The only reason I gave it 4 stars is because it runs really small - the dress was very tight and short. I'm only 5'2" and it was pretty short on me. The top was baggy on me even though I am busty, but I thought it looked fine. There is NO stretch in the skirt so I would recommend sizing up.
