Fabulous but that middle slit is dangerous!
I loved this dress for a disco-themed party and got compliments all night! The Large wasn't available so I got the XL and it was a good fit, just needed some tape for the chest to stay closed. However ... that front slit is so high (at least on the one I got) that it went all the way up past the start of my underwear. Others couldn't tell but it definitely felt risky to wear in public.

Good potential - will work with people with hips.
Hot dress - good fabric. It has more room in the hips than I have so would be best for a curvy lady who has curves everywhere, not just in the chest.

Good cute basic sweater
I ordered an XL even though I'm normally a Lage b/c I didn't want it to be skin tight and that worked out well. I dig it.

Did I get a small??
Either I received the wrong size or this is crazy small. (Or I gained 20 pounds in one week.) the label was not there so I could see the size but if it was a large, it runs really small for large chested women

Not for a larger chest but cute
I had to wear a tank top under b/c the girls were popping out everywhere. Not entirely my style but a cute top for the more feminine girls out there.

Meh top that runs big
I don't know they size suggested was an XXL but I went with an XL even though I'm usually an L and, not surprisingly, it was too big. I couldn't tell if it was smaller I would have liked it more. I wore it to work once but didn't love.

Cute dress but side closure is weird
Fit well and easy to throw on for an interesting every day dress. But the side closure has small snaps that are hard to close and so I had to use double sided tape to keep it closed.

Couldn't button the dress. :(
I am a size 12 and I could even make any of the buttons meet for the size Large. Was a rough try on and made me want to go for a run.

Dress felt great on, felt flowy and light in the summer heat. Had to wear a tank top under so my chest wouldn't be in your face.

Perfect day-to-night jumpsuit.
I wore this on vacation for a day spent walking around and was able to transition it to evening with no problem. Fabric is not super thin but was nice on a day in the 70s.

Too long but too cute not to wear
As others had promised, the dress was way too long (I got the regular, the petite was not available). But it was honestly too cute and easy to wear not to wear for a dinner out on an island. Slit makes it sexy but everything else is covered up so it's not too much. Would wear again on a vacation if they had it in the shorter petite.

Slit was unprofessional but who cares!
As others noted, the slit was way too high for the conference I wore this skirt to -- but I wore it with a big sweater on top to compensate and just decided I didn't care. I wouldn't recommend it for work if you have any sense of shame.

Not very flattering
Nothing was wrong with the shirt - it just didn't suit me. Was probably my mistake for renting but the shirt was a little too boxy and the sleeve ruffles a little too much.

Fine but not exciting
I was hoping this would be a little more flowy or exciting as a "going out" top. Can't wear it to work because the criss cross lacing goes too low (even though you can't really see skin, seems inappropriate). And was a little too blah for me to wear as my going out top. Won't rent again.

Perfect accent to going out top.
This gold jewelry necklace was sent as a "mystery" accessory but it really worked out to throw on a top as an extra little something. It is pictured as a double, but you can wear it as a long single strand, which ZI preferred.

Perfect for day- to-evening wedding
I needed a dress for a co-worker's wedding that would be conservative enough but not boring. I loved this dress!! I was worried that the dress would not work with my curves but it not only fit well but was very flattering. Am already looking up Nicholas dresses that I can buy!

Perfect dress for my SURPRISE Party!
The slit is not for the faint of hear but gives a below-the-knee shift dress quite a kick! I got compliments on this dress all night - I was going to wear it to what I thought was a small birthday dinner and it turned out to be a surprise party and the dress was perfect for that as well. I worried it would be on the boring side when I rented it so I rented a back up dress just in case but I didn't need it. I will definitely rent this dress again!

Super sexy but not made for women with a fuller chest.
I rented this for my birthday and could not wear it. It fit everywhere except the material was pulling around the chest area and looked like the thing was about to pop open at the chest area. Couldn't wear it. Didn't get the next size up (that was my mistake) and so I'm not sure if the 10 would have solved that problem, or if it is really not meant for women who have the boobs. The dress is also very short - I liked that but if you are planning on sitting at any point in the evening, that could present an interesting choice as to what you are willing to flash.

Great for my birthday dinner but way too long!
The fit was great and the color made it interesting. BUT ... I rented the "regular" length and and it was so long even with heels. I ended up coming up with a real classy solution and used hair bands at the bottom. I'm almost wondering whether they sent me the "long" by accident because I don't think most humans have long enough legs for the length I received. But no one else knew about the hair bands and I got compliments and it was super comfortable.

Nice necklace but prone to tangles.
Looked good with my dress I rented but the three strands of necklace kept getting tangled up in each when I was wearing it so I eventually took it off.

Great pop of color in a sea of black dresses!
This is not normally a dress I would have picked out but with the sleeves and the color it was just different enough to stand out without looking too "girly" in a pink dress. Fit was good. It is short, so if you will be sitting down, realize that you will be showing some serious leg.

Perfect dress for a nice NYC restaurant!
I got a lot of compliments on this dress. The material on this dress is VERY forgiving - it is thick but slimming. The flounce from the bottom of the dress makes the dress feel like more than just a regular LBD. It doesn't have a total "wow factor" to it but it is a good, simple, classy black dress.
