The top fits weird
I wanted to love this dress, but could not get the top to lay right. Around the neckline, under the arm, sometime in the back depending on how I stood. It just felt like it had been cut weirdly.

Beautiful dress! Bust needs adjusting.
I got soooo many compliments on this dress, including from an ex. Did have to pin the straps though and use fashion tape and safety pins in the front to keep it all in though. But overall it was great!

Too small
Couldn't zip it up. The waist seemed unusually high.

This dress runs really large!
I usually wear anywhere between 12 and 16, depending on the dress, but got this in a 10 based on the reviews. I could have gone down to an 8 and it would have fit better. I really, really, really wanted to wear this dress, but I couldn't get my boob tape and double-sided fabric tape to cooperate with it. I definitely would have had several wardrobe malfunctions if I'd worn it. Ultimately, I had to wear something else as over an hour of fiddling with the bust and straps on this one made me late.

I felt super sexy!
Wore this to an outdoor, party/fundraiser and felt super sexy. This was a backup dress, but ultimately was a better fit for the setting. Had to pin the straps to make them shorter, even though they were adjustable, and they still slid off some. In the car it occurred to me that I probably could have crossed the straps to make them tighter and add some flare, but it was too late by then.

Pretty dress! A little tight in the ribs.
I'm a big busted girl: I fretted about what kind of bra to wear with this and ultimately settled on a regular, strapless bra. Could have worn it without a bra, but the darting was awkward and flattened in random spots that made the rounding effect of the bra necessary. Had to stop breathing to zip it up, but once I was in, it was very fun and flowy.

Size up if you have big boobs
I got a 12, when I knew I would probably need a 14. It fit and was super cute from the waist down, but I couldn't button it over my boobs. Maybe when a 14 becomes available I'll grab it.

Runs super small!
I literally couldn't button this dress up. It would probably make a cute jacket if it were cooler outside. Lol.
