I wore this to a rehearsal dinner for a wedding I was in. I wanted something that would be forgiving around the midsection, and this worked out perfectly. I rented the large as my primary and medium as my backup. The only reason I'm taking a star off is because between the two that were sent, you could definitely tell one was worse for the wear. One was more vibrant and the other was dull in comparison and had a noticeable stain on the chest. I ended up wearing the large, which was more worn and covered up the stain using my hair. Being comfortable was more important to me for this event, and the large was less clingy.

I rented this for my birthday dinner in February. It could definitely be dressed up or down. I was going for a more casual look, so I paired the dress with a cardigan, tights, and boots. As other reviews have mentioned, the material is THICK. Perfect for the cooler months. It also does run large. I put on a little weight, so normally for most dresses I'd be a large, but the medium worked well for me in this case. Overall it was a really fun rental. I'd buy this dress if it ever goes on sale. Good for repeat wears.

I wanted to keep this! I ordered an 8 as my regular and a 10 for backup. This dress definitely runs small across the bust and shoulders. I couldn't raise my arms in the 8. The 10 was more comfortable and easier to move in, but the 8 looked so much better overall, I ended up sticking with it. The event was a baby shower, so being slightly restricted wasn't a big deal. Would definitely size up if you plan on dancing in this dress.

Dress was delivered a day early (right before the blizzard). Normally I'm a size 8, with the largest point being around my ribs/bust (36 D). As already noted, this dress is VERY fitted around the natural waist and bust. I couldn't even zip the 8 all the way so used the backup size 10. Even with the 10 it was still a little tight but seemed to loosen up a bit throughout the night. The fit and flare style made it very comfortable to move around and dance. Both dresses were delivered in perfect condition. Highly recommend, but definitely size up if you're big in the bust!
