Perfect for Everyday

I absolutely loved this dress !! My best friend wore it to my bridal shower and I just had to try it. Now she is just about 5’3-5’4 and I am 5’2. I was worried it would be too long on me but it hit just the right spot at my ankle I am a 34DD and the top dot just right. I loved the material , it was light and flowing, perfect for hot Texas weather. I love a dress with pockets !!!! The pockets were my favorite part

Such a fun dress!

I wore this dress on vacation and had family pictures taken in it. Lovely material and a nice medium weight material. Warm enough for a summer evening, but cool enough to be, warm vacation with. It traveled pretty well with minimal wrinkles

Quirky Ties

I did not like how the side ties hit on my hips. Instead I tied both together around my back. Much more flattering on the waistline.

Sooo cute

I love all the little details with the bows and buttons. Not super fitted at my waist (28) but still very flattering. Fun pop of color. Would buy if it wasn’t so pricey

A little tight on bust but SO flattering!!!

SO. MANY. COMPLIMENTS!! And so comfortable! I will say I’m a D and the chest was a little tight. I just wore cakes underneath and you could kind of see the outline. I have a short torso with some curves and this was extremely flattering. The details are really beautiful. It does get a bit wrinkled throughout the day but there’s so much detail on it that you don’t really notice. If the bust fit a bit better I would have kept it! It can read as pink or purple depending on the light

Garden Party Vibes

Loved the sweet, garden party vibes of this dress- perfect look for the bridal shower I attended. Overall, was large at the bust (I’m a 34 A). Gapped largely at the seams under the bust. Other than that, the ties at the waist helped were quite functional, tightening against my waist well. Love the fullness and soft pink/lavender.

ADORE this dress!

The fit is extremely flattering. I received tons of compliments on this dress! If you are on the curvier side, size up because the chest and tummy area can get tight.

Perfect Dress

One of my favorite rentals, and received so many compliments. The attention to detail is amazing – buttons, flattering waist ties that you can let hang down or tie into cute bows to cinch the waist more if desired. V neck is not deep. Sleeves are structured puffs but not overly pouffy. Light weight, quality material and design. Would buy.

The shoulders look elegant and the dress flows right. You might have to iron it or steam it but I was too scared to burn it so waited for the crease to disappear after an hour of wearing lol.

Amazing fit and super flattering

The photos do not do this dress justice. It is fitted up top, almost like a corset so it looks great. Perfect for work too as it did not have a low cut v-neck. The bottom was billowy and flowed out. I would love this dress in multiple colors.
