Other ladies couldn't stop telling me how much they loved the color, style and high-low skirt on the dress. Huge hit.   (I rented this as a back up option for my husband's formal company Christmas party and didn't care for my first option). 

Pros: The pockets were fantastic. I carried my phone, money, lip gloss and key in them all night and they never fell out or felt weighed down. The color was beautiful and the "weird panel" that is mentioned in some of the comments I felt actually helped to hide some of my post-partum belly bulge. There are so MANY options for shoes and jewelry to make this look your own too!

Cons: I needed a lot of help from my husband to pin this dress in place. You really need a strapless, backless bra but since I was without, we were able to use fashion tape to make sure my bra straps didn't show on my shoulders or across my back. You will almost certainly need to pin this closed at the bust.  I also wore a crinoline underneath to give the skirt some extra OOOMMPH! The zipper is a bit tough as well and you may need some help getting it pulled up.  I ALMOST could give this dress 4 or 5 stars but the time we spent taping/pinning down the shoulders and bustline so that I wouldn't be uncomfortable or show my bra may be a bit too much for some. 

The color of this dress is gorgeous! The material is heavy. A lot of other reviews said the drop waist was unflattering, but I have small hips and this dress gave me shape that I lacked. I got so many compliments! 

I felt like Carrie from sex and the city... Like a princess! It was perfect.


Heavy material; I decided not to wear it to the wedding because it would be difficult to dance in.    Loose in bust; but nice-fitting fit around the bodice, so if you do decide to go with this dress make sure to wear double sided tape for the top. I think it looked "matronly" on me

A tiny bit of gaping at the chest when you sit down, but on the plus side it forces you into good posture. 

So, I normally wear a 6, but I had to wear an 8 in this one. It's a very thick material and there's absolutely no stretch in the fabric, so I would strongly advise sizing up. I liked the dress but there were some issues: first, the deep v neckline didn't stay in place, so I had to use tape to prevent a wardrobe malfunction. Second, the fabric is so thick that it adds bulk to your frame, so it wasn't the most flattering of dresses. Overall, I spent a little more time worrying about keeping the super loose top part of the dress from slipping off my shoulders and revealing EVERYTHING than I would have liked to. Other than that, it's a fun, daring, adorable number that is sure to turn every head in the room. 

Dress was very high quality, fabric was lush, thick and clearly well made. But that also made it heavy. Fit was good, the dress had a lot of room in the chest so is great for C cups and above. 

This dress was beautiful! I didn't to take it off!! I loved everything about it! 

This is my first time renting and I loved this on the website, the color and style looked different and stand out.  I ended up not wearing it, preferring the back up dress instead. 
I was disappointed in the length, I am 5' 4" and the dress fell below my knees in the front and would be far more flattering above the knee. The waist fit very nicely, not too tight. I will note that the waist is the same shiny material as the dress, it has no give and holds in the tummy. The top portion was a little big, I would have needed to figure out how to hold the straps down. The color is amazing. The material is quite heavy but moves nicely, it was difficult to zip over the heavy material. 

It was tight in the ribcage, so I had to go up to the 8. I'm normally a 6, but the 8 fit well! Glad I got a size up! The zipper is difficult because there's so much fabric, but my best friend helped me out!
