Made me feel like a prettt, pretty princess

Absolutely adore ALMOST everything about the dress. Pros: beautiful floral print, feminine cinched sleeves, made me feel really beautiful, turns heads and induces compliments! Cons: the zipper on it sucks, the dress wasn’t even kind of tight and it was still a hassle to zip it killll up, there is a swatch of fabric that connects the shoulders of the sleeves (which looks really beautiful and accentuates the beauty of your back) buttttt the strap connects to the other sleeve with the shittiest and least effective snap buttons ever!!! If you like even gently do some sort of hand gesture or body twist or even just standing and not moving- they immediately snap off. When I wore the dress I just secured the piece with a safety pin and had no problems whilst wearing it the two times that I did. Overall, love this elegant and fun dress a lot and definitely reccomend it for girls at least a size D because my cleavage barely just filled out with the space in the chest.

Fall colors

Loved it! Skirt was fuller than expected, but I still liked the style. The strap on the back was secured with two little snaps that came undone fairly easily so I would pin if I were to wear for anything other than family photos.

Just rent it!

This dress is gorgeous! And so classy! The only thing I would say is the back clasp can come off easily if you move your shoulders out. Other than that it’s a perfect dress. I enjoyed wearing it to a rehearsal dinner.

So many compliments!

LOVED this dress, I wore it to my brother in law's fall wedding. I tried it on at home and loved it but when I wore it to the wedding the sun really emphasized the colors which are so rich and beautiful. I am usually a size 4 but I went with a size 2 which fit perfectly. The 4 made me look bigger than I am, the 2 hugged my body much better. The clasp on the back had to be taped because the buttons kept coming undone, but I didn't mind. I didn't have to wear a bra which is always a plus. Loved it!

Flattering

Comfortable and flattering! The front neckline would fall low easily but a better bra prob would have helped that. Felt like a fairy Godmother.

I didn’t want to let it go

If it wasn’t so insanely expensive, I would’ve kept it. I wore it to multiple events from Christmas to Valentines and received so many compliments. It is a little booby but in all the right ways.

It did cut a little low, so I pinned it and it was perfect! I felt very classy and sassy with the open back! Wish I could buy this beautiful dress

Super flattering, beautiful color

The only reason I didn’t 5 star this is because it wasn’t super comfortable. (It was comfortable enough though - just the stomach area had some structure that I wasn’t expecting). Otherwise, this is wildly flattering. I was worried it would be too big in chest based on other reviews (I’m 34B) but it fit great. I received a lot of compliments too. Would definitely rent again!

Cute dress, not overly comfy

It fits well, stretchy in the back so fits larger chest. However, it has metal piping to give structure that is not comfortable when sitting and will poke you I sized up but should've stuck with normal size as the shoulder were too big

Overall Fit

Just right

Beautiful wedding guest dress

Beautiful dress wore to wedding. Good length for the short girls and fit like a glove because of the elastic back. Only comment is the top is very open, I have a small chest and felt like I was pulling it up all night. Wore wrap sweater so it could be church appropriate and then lost the sweater for the reception. Would wear again but def need body tape or a few stitches to tighten the top

Looked good but didn’t fit good

Very forgiving dress in the stomach area so it looked good in photos! The chest was too big and kept gapping open. The strap that kept the dress attached in the back came unsnapped so easily when I raised my arms. Also, stitching on the shoulders was scratchy and rubbed my skin raw. Loved the look, not the fit.

Lots of compliments but had to move carefully

This dress was beautiful and got lots of compliments but the strap across the back did pop open several times if I slouched or reach med forward with both arms too much. It stayed up really well though which is great since I went bra-less!

Beautiful dress.

Beautiful dress. got multiple compliments. only hiccup is the strap across the back does tend to unclip if you're moving about or arching your shoulders. easy enough to re-clip but happened a few times while out to dinner.

Beautiful and flowy

The color was rich and the overall dress was fantastic. My only issue is that the straps were too long for me and I had to pin them to be shorter. However, I am a shorter woman, so this is a normal occurrence for me.
