Showstopping!
Fits TTS, maybe a little large up top. Very simple but the cape speaks for itself. So fun. Able to wear around your neck too if a warmer event.

Perfect Grad Dress!
Wore this to my graduation and wanted pops of light blue for school spirit! The blue is a little closer to royal but I loved this dress and got so many compliments! It is perfect for a little more professional type event while not making me feel like I was wearing something frumpy but on the other hand not too short or "party" like. The ruffle at the bottom is unlined but adds length which was was great.

Tiny
This dress made me feel kind of bad about myself because after attempting to try it on, I had to have someone else physically remove it from my body because it was so small and had no stretch. Unless you know your sizing in reformation (which is apparently small?!) I would suggest sizing up or avoiding this dress altogether. It does have the smocking on the back but it was just really ill-fitting and the slit was also at a weird place for me. Also, it was the 6L, but yet it hid at my upper ankle, so something to keep in mind if you are taller.

Beautiful dress, PIN THE SLIT
This dress was so beautiful but clearly I did not read the reviews closely enough nor sit down in the dress before showing up to the church, only to find that my underwear almost showed when sitting down. Not something you want to find out for the first time in a catholic mass. So yeah, definitely use a safety pin/plan to wear a shawl if you're going to a church wedding and want to be a bit more conservative. I also had to sit fully tucked under the table at dinner and use my napkin to cover my upper thighs. Overall, I really liked this dress and would rent again but would make that small adjustment of pinning. Also, I am usually a 6-8 trending closer to the 8 and the 6 fit perfectly, I didn't even try on the 8.

I got compliments all night!
I was so happy I rented this dress I had had in my "hearts"! I went to a formal event and got so many compliments! I am 5'9" and the long did get stepped on/slightly drag with three inch heels. I am also relatively small chested so I did have to pull up the dress (I didn't wear a bra, there is bonding) but it was so beautiful I didn't even care. Bonus points for POCKETS! Color is rich in person and the skirt is nice and full.

Beautiful, SO MANY compliments!!!
This dress is absolutely gorgeous! I rented in two sizes, 2 and a 4 and both fit well, but the 2 was a bit tight for my mother's liking in the rear (although it definitely could have worked) so I ended up wearing the 4. Beware, this is a pretty low-cut dress, so if you're very busty (which I am not, but this dress made me seem to be) that may be a problem. The best part of was the dress has straps, so you can wear a normal bra and not pull it up all night like a strapless dress, but still feel beautiful. I was even stopped in the powder room by a girl I don't know asking me where I had gotten it because she loved it so much! I would highly recommend this dress to anyone thinking about renting it, I have nothing but good things to say about it!

Small in the butt, large in the chest
I rented this dress for a cotillion holiday dance, and it was my second dress so I only received it in one size. I was really hoping for this to work out as it looked so cute in the pictures/reviews but I wasn't able to wear it! Being almost 5'9", the underskirt that keeps the tulle from being completely see through was not even long enough to go over my butt! In the picture of the model, the tulle looks quite opaque and limp, however, in real life you would definitely be able to see if the underskirt had ridden up (or wasn't down in the first place) AND the tulle is MUCH more poofy in real life than it is pictured on the model, think bell shaped vs A line. Another issue I had with the dress was the bust area. Although I rented a 2, the top was extremely low cut (my bra hung out) and loose. Although I am very small chested, I did not expect the top to bag as much as it did. With all of that said, this was a gorgeous dress, and if worn by the right body type would be absolutely adorable! But, if you're tall or have a butt, rethink renting this dress!

Runs WAY small
I usually wear a 0 or 2 and after reading reviews I ordered a 4 and a 6. The four was impossible to get on. I tried the six and it fit everywhere except the part over the hips that is under the "tulip". I also ordered another dress which had a fuller skirt that I ended up wearing because I was more comfortable dancing (and sitting) in that one. I will say that dress does look great though and I would highly suggest renting it, but do order up in size.
