Not for large breasts
This fit perfectly everywhere except my boobs (38 DDD). Such a shame bc it’s a great staple dress

It’s fine…
The color is more dull in real life. The drawstring waist is not particularly flattering

Way too small for someone with any sort of chest.

Nice material, slit too high
I ordered this for a work conference but the slit in the front is way too high. They must have a way larger size in the model and have it pinned just right in the back.

Great dress
I loved this dress and got so many compliments. Perfect with white sneakers or you could dress it up with open toe heels. Very clingy but not tight. For someone curvier I felt great in it.

True to size, better for my 5’10” girlies
I’ve been wearing a size 16 postpartum but a 14 would have been better. It is big on me in that it’s not tight around my butt and I think is a bit too long so the leg slit effect isn’t as good. BUT I will be comfortable at the wedding I’m wearing it to, which is a good thing. No need to feel like it’s too tight and I need to suck it in. Will likely rent again but in a smaller size! Looks great with a leather jacket!

Lightweight work sweater
Great sweater for work, fun back details. Sleeves can feel a little twisted due to the 2 different fabrics. Bottom hem is not stretchy but rest of sweater is so that's a bit odd but it's a great top.

Hot pink!
I loved this dress but be warned- its a lot of back. The fit Im calling true to size but it is more narrow up top than in the bottom- the back straps kept riding up but a 14 would've been way too big. Despite the low-cut top it wasn't too much boob- kept it classy for sure. I definitely stood out in a sea of navy and black!

Obsessed
I am so in love with this dress! The top definitely runs big and is a wider V than expected, so I wish I'd had double sided tape but it was okay- just had to have great posture all night! So many compliments and so unique. And the pockets are great as you can see :-)

not quite as pictured...
The bottom definitely poofs out more than expected. Beautiful color and the pop of brighter blue is nice too. Not great if you have a larger chest- tough to zipper and felt uncomfortable.

Sexy and Sophisticated
This dress was comfortable and easy to dance in. I had rented a different dress but it didn't look right on me so I rented this instead. I really didn't want to wear black but I felt amazing in this! Its not too low-cut so those of us with a bigger chest needn't feel exposed- gave just the right amount of cleavage. Lots of compliments too!

so comfy and unique!
I LOVED this sweater. It is SUPER warm though so be aware even though it has the open back. Looks great with a high ponytail or bun.

This was my backup for our rehearsal dinner. And I absolutely loved it. The fabric is gorgeous and the it is amazing. It is so flattering and elegant. The 10 would've been perfect but the 12 worked just fine. I want to own this dress!

too short!
I am 25 and not afraid to wear a short dress. HOWEVER this dress is baby doll short on my 5'8" frame. There is no way I could dance at my friend's wedding in this. so I will not be wearing it unfortunately.

Too short!
I rented this to wear to a wedding, the ceremony of which was in church. This dress was far too short! I'm normally a 6 or an 8 depending on the type of dress. After reading reviews I sized up for both sizes. The 8 was impossible to wear. Too tight and too short. The 10 could have been worn out to a club or a trendy restaurant but unfortunately was not appropriate for the wedding. Definitely size up!!!! The dress is gorgeous otherwise. Though the hem did not lay flat like other reviewers also mentioned.

Great daytime party dress
This dress definitely runs small, but looks fabulous. The fabric is very different and everyone loved it. I wore it for a luncheon celebrating my and my fiance's graduation from law school and it was perfect for a day time affair!

Too small a size
It was just too small to wear on any finger other than my engagement ring finger... I ended up not wearing it. Also the stone is HUGE

Great color
This was my backup dress for my graduation from law school. It was a size larger than I normally wear but I loved the color so much I decided to wear it to dinner that night. It was big so I used a belt to give me shape. Definitely a true to size dress!
