Lady in red!

The detail on this dress is absolutely beautiful. The color is vibrant and it was perfect for a nice dinner. I usually rent size medium in dresses but for this one I ordered a large and it fit perfectly. The material is a tad heavy but also helps with tummy control. I had a few beautiful women stop by the table to compliment the dress!

Unforgettable. Outstanding. Gorgeous.

There's little to no stretch so sized up for my hips and shoulders to the large. Glad I did because movement was easy breezy and fit was curve hugging. I'm between a 6-8 usually so if you usually have to size up for your lower body, I would do so for this dress. Paired with an AMQ clutch and black heels, gold jewelry. Loved this look so much I might try to buy the dress for myself.

Best dress ever!!

Perfect fit, so many compliments. I will say in terms of dancing your arms are restricted somewhat... you can't exactly raise your hands fully but worked perfectly for raising a glass of champagne!

Gorgeous Dress!

This dress is absolutely gorgeous! It's the perfect mix of classy and sexy. I love the open shoulders and it's beautifully fitted, the lace covers enough where it still looks appropriate.

This was the Red Ribbon Gala to support medical funding for those living with HIV and AIDS.

Very fitted, so order your regular size and the size up. You will probably need to have someone available to help you zip it up because the zipper pull is very small. Expect to receive lots of compliments. This dress is sexy without revealing too much! Loved wearing it.

Gorgeous dress

I wasn’t sure this dress would fit when I ordered it as I usually size between an 8 and 10, but I’m glad I took my chances! It was fitted but I was still able move and dance easily - though as others have said, I couldn’t raise my arms very high. I didn’t know when I ordered the dress that most of it is not lined. The parts that are are the skirt between the two black stripes and the front of the bodice, but none of black stripes are lined so you can see skin through. That was a little risqué for me, and I was a lot more comfortable wearing black slip shorts and a bandeau bra. I received a ton of compliments and definitely think I had best dress at the event we attended!

Sexier than it looks online!

As the title says… could be a good thing or a bad thing. The panels under the bust and bum, plus between the breasts, are sheer/see-through. Didn’t wear it because it was too tight and a little too much for the conservative wedding I was attending, but really pretty. Size up—no give.

Loved this dress!

I rented the largest size and it looked very nice on me, but it was a little restrictive in the bust area. I am very large busted, so this wasnt a surprise. I got so many compliments on the dress. Loved it.

Sexy & Classy

I am 5'6" 135lbs. This dress fit me like a glove. The material is not stretchy, very form fitting and a little stiff. I loved it as it didn't get loose or wrinkly after sitting at a long dinner and kept my stomach tight! Although, it might not be the best for dancing. The lace details make the dress very sexy but not too risky with the additional length over the knees. I could not wear a bra with this, but the material held everything in the right place.

You won't stop getting compliments

Originally wanted to order a Large but only the medium was in stock so I gave it a try. I was so happy when it fit because this dress is gorgeous. Be ready to get a ton of compliments. You will need help zipping all the way up to the top. Overall great dress, would rent again.

Sexy in a non-obvious way!

Worn for my best friend's bachelorette and I couldn't have loved it more! The structure of the lace is incredible and detail exquisite. The lining was super silky so it was comfortable all night. Be warned: it is a little challenging to move in because the fit is really that good so if you need something that's going to give you effortless range of motion this probably isn't for you. Would absolutely rent again!

Striking Dress!!

I LOVED this dress!! The lace is gorgeous and the style at the top is just so unique, they both made the fit so flattering. The dress got compliments all night and was sexy without being too revealing. The only drawback as other reviewers mentioned is that the sleeves really do make it tough to raise your arms (not really a problem, just forces you to get creative with dancing and getting in and out of cars)! I'd definitely rent again!

I Love this dress, it's AMAZING!!!

It was love the minute I tried it on, I used it for a day wedding and was comfortable the whole time I wore it. I did need help with the back zipper, also like mentioned in previous reviews you could barely lift your arms up past a certain point, but it didn't bother me, I did not wear a bra with it and didn't need to. It was a perfect fit and I felt amazing and sexy wearing it. More pictures @carmencfitness

Beautiful dress, never got so many compliments in my life!

I'm 5 foot and it still fit me perfectly and the lace is really high quality. The colors are intense and beautiful. It gives a wonderful shape. Very good blend of ladylike and sexy. Con is that you can't raise your arms all the way due to design of the dress and the zipper is a little difficult to get up, even when it's on the hanger but all in all, highly recommended!!

Bright, stunning, and details are beautiful. Received many compliments. Feels like a D&G dress. Downside to this is there is no stretch so little uncomfortable around neck and when lift arms. But totally worth it!

This dress has stunning lace details! Cannot wear a bra due to mesh lines on chest. Difficult to sit in because of the lace band around the legs. Would recommend sizing up because the lace is tight/has no give, or don't plan to sit in it!

Loved this dress! Compliments didn't stop all night long. It's sexy, sophisticated, chic and has a fabulous texture. Classic style all the way! Be aware the arms have a little constriction based on the design but one you are wearing it for a short while you get used to it.

FAKE IT TILL YOU MAKE IT - and you'll love this dress!

PROS: Photographs well. The sleeves aren't too conservative. Fitted in the right areas/waist hits at a nice spot. CONS: It's difficult to lift your arms bc of the crochet seam. The black crochet is actually see-thru so you can see your clevege (which I didnt realize and the back is see thru so you can't wear a bra- I taped my 32F boobs down!) Highly recommend this dress. The CONS weren't deal breakers at all for me. FAKE IT TILL YOU MAKE IT. Cause nobody else will know you can't lift your arms unless you tell them. Xo hope this helps!
