Fit is like a dream. I honestly could have lived in this dress. The flowers a whimsical and girly but the cut and fit of the dress and colors scream all woman to me. Wore it to an annual fundraiser in a generally drafty venue but I felt comfortable temperature-wise in this dress while not sacrificing a single iota of style. Would buy this dress to keep in a heart beat. True to size and no one else out of hundreds in the room was wearing anything like it.

The dress runs a bit small.  I typically wear an 8, but based on recommendations, rented the size 10 and it was perfect!  The dress is very flattering.  The fabric texture, pattern and the fit of the dress made it easy to not wear spanx while not being self conscious.  As others said, it is a little tight across the shoulders, but I didn't find it restricting. I was still able to dance the night away! 

It fit exactly right! The long, but lacy sleeves gave a bit of warmth for the evening time, but the shortness made if versatile for warmer hours of fall. I got the size 2 as a backup, but I am usually a zero in dresses and this fit perfectly. 

I wore this to my husband's work party, and it was the perfect level of interesting and modest while still being fun. I'm 5'5", 135 lbs. and I feel the length and fit was perfect for me. The arms were a smidge tight but I could definitely still dance. The lace detailing was nice and breathable. Overall, would consider buying & will rent again!

The material is pretty comfy, by the end of the night I was really thankful that the long sleeves had some built in ventilation. The shape of the bodice was so flattering! 

Received many compliments and ended up buying, because I loved it so much

Nice fit. A little tight for arm movement but other than that fit great! 

Little restrictive in the arms but other than that the dress was perfect. 

Unique dress, great fit. Wore to winter wedding in Georgia. Somewhat restrictive to arm motion (dancing) but otherwise fabulous.

I found this dress to be perfect for a winter wedding.  The fit was true to size, as I usually wear a 2 and that was the size that fit the best.  The only drawbacks were that the sleeves were a bit long (so I tucked them in-unnoticeable) and the top was a little baggy on me due to having a super small chest.  It was great not having to wear a bra though!  The colors in this dress are way prettier than the website photos show...see my close up for more details.  I felt sexy and classy in this little cocktail dress.  The length was short without being too revealing and the style of the dress hugged my frame in the right ways.  I paired this one with some small earrings, sheer black hosiery, and some super cute deep purple, open middle heels.  I wish my phone camera worked properly...only my selfie one takes photos these days.  Believe me when I say that this dress gets noticed and I received multiple compliments on the design.  

I liked this dress a lot! It was comfortable, fit well and was perfect for the winter time and the party I went to. I will say I probably should've gone with a 0 but the 2 fit me just fine as well. I got many compliments throughout the evening. It's easy to wear and cute and flirty at the same time.

I rented this for my boyfriends holiday and while it fit the occasion, I felt it a teeny bit dated in style , yet gorgeous, the fit was great and I received compliments from people which I wouldn't expect from which is definitely a great sign. When I sat for dinner, it did ride up some, but otherwise a great look with booties and a leather jacket. 

Loved the lace! The color and cut was great for a formal, winter event. I would rent again.

This dress is pretty short but I think the sleeves and neckline make it more modest. Got tons of compliments, but my only complaint is feeling restricted in the arms, but I tend to carry more weight there anyway!

The length and fit was great.  Not a very stretchy material.  Fit was true to size. 

I rented the 4 and the 6 and ended up wearing the 4 because the sleeve length and waist were too big/long in the 6. I'm 5'2" and the length was perfect. Was a little tight across the chest. I'm a 34c. The lace doesn't give much. Received so many compliments on this dress! Perfect mix of stylish and sexy, yet classy. 

This dress was a bit of a risk for me but I ended up loving it! Usually mini dresses are too short on me but this one felt super comfortable especially with the long sleeves. Got so many compliments! Perfect for early spring or fall 

fit was good, dress is short so hard time bending over without mooning anyone.
But got so many compliments and I Loved it! Usually wear size 6-8 but this runs smaller and tight around the waist.

I wore this dress out on a date to the theater with my husband and a baby shower. I love when I get to wear a rental to more than one event! I rented this dress for these events specifically, but it was not my number one choice. Most of the dresses I wanted were not available. This dress was very appropriate for the events and for the weather. It is also a great work dress that can easily go from day to night. The dress is definitely more purple than it looks in pictures. I received some compliments, but definitely not the amount I usually get for a rental. It was fine. 

I loved this dress! It's beautiful, comfortable, and perfect for a fall or winter formal event!

I wore this to the Breeder's Cup and it was the perfect dress for a formal daytime activity - I even accidentally matched the event colors so it really was almost too perfect. No fit issues at all. Loved this dress!

I found this to fit true to size. I am smaller up top with wider hips and thighs. This dress had no stretch so I decided to go with a size 6 (my pants size). The 6 fit perfectly! I got a lot of compliments. Loved it!! 

I'm so excited to wear this dress for NYE. The 2 fit perfectly and I can't get over how beautiful this dress is in person. I love the sleeves and the length makes it not as conservative since it's a bit short.
