Fun choice for a gala!
This dress was so fun for a work event! Got many compliments throughout the night. The 8R fit well around the waist and was a perfect length, but the bust fit loosely on me (34B). I ended up wearing a heavily padded bra and pinning the dress to my straps. Worked pretty well!

Perfect for the Red Dress Gala!
I really enjoyed this dress. I received an 8 and 10. The 10 fit better around my waist, hips and ribcage, but it was too loose in the bust. I went with the 8 and it wasn't too uncomfortable. Big plus: you can wear a normal bra. Big minus: the skirt is a bit short.

Great for a summer event!
This dress was a bit tight around the rib age for me, but I loved it anyway. Lots of compliments on the color. The shape of the skirt was flattering with fuller hips/booty. Wish I could've kept it!

Solid Choice
I rented this dress for a date on Valentine's Day. It was comfortable and pretty! Definitely not a show-stopper dress, but very nice. Loved that it had sleeves!

So sad I couldn't wear this!
I got this as a backup for a red dress gala when my original choice fell through. They were only able to send me a 6, and the dress simply wouldn't zip up, but it was gorgeous! I was hugely disappointed I couldn't wear it.

Perfect for a company holiday party!
This dress is absolutely beautiful! I ordered an 8 and a 10 due to the fabric not stretching. I would have been most comfortable in the 10, but there was a noticeable hole on the front, so I wore the 8 and it was still lovely. The lining made it a wonderfully warm choice for a chilly December night.

Perfectly bridal for my rehearsal dinner!
This dress was just right for my wedding rehearsal and rehearsal dinner. It was classy and fashion forward. I received lots of nice compliments! The fabric has more sparkle than I realized, so I didn't end up wearing a necklace as planned. Both the 6 and 8 zipped up, but there is hardly any stretch to the waistline, so I went with the 8 for comfort. The skirt is pretty full, so don't be alarmed. Loved wearing this! Didn't want to send it back!

Couldn't wear it :(
I think this dress is beautiful! Unfortunately, I couldn't wear the small nor the medium. I found the small to be too tight in the bust and the medium to be too large. Something right in the middle would have been perfect.

Fun and sophisticated for my bridal shower!
I'm so glad I rented this dress! I ordered a 4 and a 6, but the fabric really doesn't stretch so the 6 was just right. The material is a bit on the heavy side, so beware if you're going to an outdoor event in the heat. I was definitely sad to send this one back!

Stood out even under my cap and gown!
I really loved this dress! I was complimented by friends and family all day :) Unfortunately, I felt the dress ran rather large. The material had less structure than I anticipated. I ordered a size 6 and 8, but I would've greatly preferred a size 4. This dress has some stretch, so I advise going down in the additional size.

Awesome dress to dance in!
As previously stated by other reviewers, the top of this dress runs small and has zero stretch to it. It was fine for a small-busted girl like myself, but be careful how much padding you plan to wear underneath. This dress is so fun to wear! It's super comfortable and perfect to twirl in! I highly recommend it!

I ordered this dress for my Sorority's Spring formal and LOVED IT! Got so many compliments!
I ordered the 4R and 6R because I wanted the dress to be tight enough in the bust area. Both dresses zipped up, but I ended up wearing the 6R so I could breathe a little easier. The dress fit wonderfully, but was really long! I wore 3 inch heels and it was still grazing the ground. Girls on the shorter side should be careful.
