This is a cute look for work, but it was definitely short, even on my 5'4" frame - great if you want to show off your legs, but potentially awkward as you're getting out of a car or sitting in a meeting.

I rented this dress to have something to go from work to play during the summer months. Stylistically this dress fit the bill perfectly. The blue is even more vivid in person and absolutely beautiful and the cut is great. It nips in at the waist and fits well through the bust. However, it runs extremely large. I was absolute swimming in my usual size 4 and ended up sending it back without wearing it. I'll try the next size down because I love the look, but I'm not sure even that will be downsizing enough.

I rented this dress for work. Loved the elegant look and the fabric was very high quality. In the body my usual size 4 fit like a glove. However, I ended up not wearing it because the armholes were so tight that I couldn't reach over my head to finish zipping it. I might try renting it again one size up, but worry that it would be too big everywhere else.

I wanted to love this top, but the fit was just off. I ordered my normal size 4. It fit, but it was definitely on the snug side as many reviewers have noted. More problematic was the fact that the seam for the peplum hit a bit high on the waist. I'm busty with a small waist and normally styles like this look great on me, but I found having the peplum start so high on my waist added undesirable fullness to my abdomen rather than making it looks smaller. I might try a 6 at some point to see if the seam hits in a lower, more flattering place in a larger size.

If your waist is small to begin with this dress makes it even smaller. However, I am bustier and because I couldn't wear a bra with this dress the front of the dress buckled hiding the sexy cut outs to a certain degree. I might have been able to fix this with the adjustable straps, but they were extremely difficult to move and once they finally started to get tight enough to hold up the dress they were also cutting into my skin.

I wore this dress to a Velvet Underground/Club themed birthday party and felt like a million dollars. It's definitely form fitting and low cut, but very flattering if you are curvy. It's too low cut in the back and plunging in the front for a traditional strapless bra, but I felt comfortable without one. I've seen many reviewers say it was tight in the seat. I found it had plenty of room in the seat, even though I often joke I have full hips and thighs designed to survive a Scandinavian winter. However, it is a mermaid cut, which means it tapers to the knees and you can't step your feet more than about hip distance apart, so dancing or walking long distances would be tough.
