I wore a brown skims body suit under it to give it a little edge. this dress is different for me yet so beautiful.

Perfect destination summer wedding dress

Wore this for a summer wedding in Italy. Easy to pack! Completely mesh so plan for shapewear or a slip underneath.

Funky!

Ok, so I had no idea that it was sheer so I wore it to a date night instead of a day time charity function like originally planned. Very fun, and very firm fitting. Different than anything I would ever wear, but a great rental v a buy!

Fun and Fabulous

Loved this dress! I loved the pattern, the unique seams and ruching, and how comfortable it was. For comparison, I typically wear a size 6 or 8 in jeans, S or M in tops, and am a 36C or 34D. I ordered a size 40 based on what was available and thought it fit well. The fabric is very stretchy and forgiving if you are between sizes or need some extra space. As others have mentioned, the material is VERY sheer. I purchased a nude colored slip which worked perfectly. In person, I thought the material looked more yellow-toned, but didn't notice that at all once I had it on. I would definitely order this one again!

I loved this dress! It felt sexy, but comfortable.

I didn’t find this too shear. I wore a nude bra and underwear and was fine, even standing in the sun. This dress was such a great surprise; I received so many compliments. I wore the size 38 as the 40 seemed a bit loose.

loose + ruched

the gathered detailing on this dress gives it enough shape to be flattering, but enough room to be comfy. sheer paisley print mesh fabric. slip recommended.

See-through Stunner

I liked this dress so much more than I anticipated. The ruching is flattering and a bit funky. I thought the print might seem a bit dumpy but it’s actually really pretty. The one downside is that it’s unlined and a pinch see through. I decided to just go for it though!

Slip Needed, Great fit

This ties into the shear dress trend if you want it to… but I wore a slip underneath. Loved this dress — would be amazing for travel as it won’t wrinkle and you could wear it a dozen ways. Very versatile!

Stunning but

Loved this dress and got a lot of compliments in it, but it is sheer, I couldn’t even wear pasties because you could see the whole outline. Ended up wearing strapless bra and spanx that went knee to bra line!

Shear body con

You need a slip for this dress — it’s completely shear. The cut/draping accentuates curves and makes for a flattering silhouette.

Refreshing print

I love seeing and wearing cool new prints but sometimes they are too much. This dress was perfect the dress wasn’t too overwhelming and paired well with a leather jacket. I wish I had a better slip to wear then a white sleep gown dress. But it looked fantastic anyways. The chest and hip areas were too large. It made the button part by the neck of the dress lay offset. If I had a bigger chest the two leg ruffles would have laid better. Still a great piece.

Gorgeous floral standout piece

This dress was stunning — very elegant and fit like a glove. The only downside was that the fabric was a bit sheer, so I’d recommend pairing it with a body con slip dress.

Sheer Delight

To say this dress is sheer is an understatement. I unfortunately rented this at the wrong time of year, so I ended up having to cover most of it with a sweater when I wore it out. However, with the right undergarments it really was stunning. I may rent it again in the summer. It's a little confusing to get aligned correctly, but once you do, it hugs in all the right places.

casual

This is too casual for a truly formal event, in my opinion, because of the color and the short sleeves. The length and the ruching (especially on the butt) helped dress it up a bit. As others noted, it must be worn with a slip.

Great fit, see through

wore this to a christening, I followed the suggestions of previous reviews and bought a slip to go underneath. I would highly recommend doing so, it is see through and I would not have worn this to any event if I didn't have a slip. It was super comfortable and was really happy how it fit/was flattering.

This is the second time I’ve rented this dress. It is unique, and fits beautifully. I always get so many compliments. I actually wore it to my son’s wedding. I recommend wearing a long slip. I got mine at Amazon.

The ruching on this dress combined with the busy pattern makes for an overall confusing look.

My daughter pointed out that the ruching in the back aligns with your butt crack so it's kind of a comical look. I did not end up wearing this dress to the event I'd planned to wear it to.
