Stunning! Felt like a Queen

dress is substantial, well-made and fit perfectly. I paired with black soft leather belt and tied in back and fun earrings/strappy black sandals. Received SOOOO many compliments- it was so much fun!

Dreamy but different fabric!

Fabric is somewhat flat and doesn’t have an any “sheen” BUT, so gorgeous and unique. Wore to a corporate reception. LOVED!

Amazing colors and comfortable!

I absolutely loved this dress! The colors are so amazing and the dress works well as casual day dress and party dress as well. Fit is flattering and comfortable. I felt like a Queen in this 💕 I will buy when there’s a sale, hated to send it back!

Wore a belt with it as others suggested. Wore it to a black tie wedding and got lots of compliments. I like how it's different and stood out a bit.

Beautiful colors, lots of compliments

The colors and style are very eye catching, the fabric is not as light and flowy, as you would imagine- but it’s still very soft. There is a bit of extra fabric in the bodice, probably could have sized down to a 2, but cinched it with a belt. (29” waist)

Compliments Galore

This dress is stunning and so unique. I am not sure I have worn a dress where I have been stopped by more strangers about it. Kind of a pain to steam out the wrinkles, but worth it. It does look better with a belt.

Statement Dress for Someone Tall

The dress does involve a lot of material and if you are under 5' 6 it would be overwhelming. I'm usually a 6 or 4 and wore the 2 with plenty of room. I would recommend sizing down, as the waist has elastic to give stretch. The material is a nice weight cotton and doesn't show wrinkles. I wore it straight out of the bag. The dress does need a belt to break up the pattern and amount of material. I wore it with both a black and a tan/natural raffia belt and each worked well. The tan belt making it a bit more casual. I wore it to the opera and a summer wedding reheresal dinner. At both events several people commented about the dress being a stunner!

Great colors & material

This dress was beautiful, and the material was really nice, airy, and comfortable. Chest was a little large and length was really long on me. Did not drag on the ground with heels though, so still wore it, felt pretty, and got compliments.

Too much fabric

I loved the idea of this dress, and from the front I think it looked nice, but the back had WAY too much fabric. I wanted to wear it to a work event but decided that the bagginess to the back made it look unacceptable. Didn’t end up wearing.

Needs a belt

Nice dress, but feels quite poofy in the top, and I don't even have a big bust. I think wearing it with a belt like the model would be helpful.

Fine flair

Cut in at top made it difficult to wear a normal bra. Colors are great but more of a Matte or flash finish. Long length. Elegant pleating. Not my favorite rental. It was fine.

Beautiful colors, but a little roomy

I ended up not wearing this dress because it wasn't right for my event but I think it would be great to wear to a spring or summer event like a wedding. I'm between a size 8 and a size 10 and the eight was a little roomy on me in the waist and chest so I think I would try a size 6 next time.

Pretty and fun

Fun for date night or theater outing. Lots of fabric, but just go with it. Top is puffy around the bust, and I do not need any added volume there, but the overall effect is pretty enough to overlook it. Needed racerback bra. I added a belt. Would be pretty with a gold chain belt. Would rent again.

Pretty dress

I wore this for Easter & a purple themed party. It's a pretty dress, but I'm not crazy about the handkerchief hem. It's a nice dress, but it didn't wow me as much as I expected.

Beautiful, esp belted

Beautiful dress! Slightly big in the chest for me, but I am disproportionately smaller on top. Looks much better with a belt. Wore to an after-hours work party and a rehearsal dinner and got several compliments both times.

I felt like a princess in this dress. The colors are gorgeous and it's very flattering. Tons of material so be ready for that, but with the fitted waist that wasn't a problem. I wore a belt with it.

This would be a perfect dress if it had pockets

This is a lot of fabric but if you bring it in with a blazer or a belt it can be pretty elegant. Or let it flow free and get a hippie vibe. This would be a perfect dress if it had pockets.

Gorgeous lovely dress

Beautiful flowing dress, no stretch, but didn't need it. Great to twirl in. Wish it came with a belt as that how it's shown styled. I added a light pink belt which seemed more fitting for summer

Good dress for more conservative wedding

Pretty dress, worked for the occasion. Would be aware that the fabric is heavy and definitely needs a belt to define the waist (I went with silver belt and silver heels which worked well). The dress also runs large; I'm typically a size 2 and ended up wearing the 0 with a little extra fabric to spare.

People loved this dress. I wore it on an average day but would also be good for work. Fits just right. It's a lot of fabric so would recommend for Fall / Spring. If you want, cinch your waist as well to keep your shape.

Gorgeous; get your steamer ready!

This was a gorgeous dress, but it took a LOT of steaming to get the major wrinkles out so that the structure can fully shine. Add a statement belt. I went with a gold metallic one that looks like a solid piece of metal, and topped it off with an amazing hat.
