Great dress for vacaiton or every day.

I loved the comfortable cotton fabric and fun pattern. I wore this to dinner in a walm climate and felt great in this dress! Fit me well in the bust. Being 5'4" it was a full length dress on me. A tad large in the waist, but couldn't have sized down with my bra size. Had to wear a tanktop to avoid bra exposure.

DVF never misses

Wore this to a work event and received compliments all day. The shirring in the back isn't apparent enough to look cheap and gives the dress a perfectly tailored fit. It has pockets, too, which came in handy for me!

Stunning!

I loved this dress and felt so beautiful and confident when I wore it for a big presentation. DVF never fails to make me feel fabulous. If you're bigger chested this can be a little revealing so consider your bra carefully.

Fall Light

This dress is gorgeous and perfect for pear shapes (like most DvF). The material is light - so it won’t work for those low 50’s fall days. But if you have an unseasonably warm October day like I did, it simply couldn’t be better.

Unique pattern

The geometric pattern is fun and unique. The dress is extremely comfortable. The fit is great for a rectangle figure as it makes your hips look bigger.

Gateway to my membership becoming Buy the Runway

This is such a cute dress. Can DVD do anything wrong? If I would change one thing, I'd jettison the poofy sleeve...mostly because I just don't love them that much. That did not deter me from buying this dress. It hit in all the right spots and I'm a bit long waisted so I was really happy with how it worked for my shape.

Perfection

Loved this dress, it fit perfectly and was easy to wear for a long work day. I was unsure if the dark color was navy or black, but I wore black shoes and accessories regardless. Not your typical DVF. The button loops were slightly difficult to close, but other than that this dress is amazing. Designed so that there is no gapping in the chest. A definite keeper!

Looooooove DVF and this dress

Fit perfectly and was perfect for work. I’ve rented the 4 in the past in a different color and this one fit about the same (though about 5 lbs more than last time). I loved everything about this dress! Can be worn for any season!

Flattering

Perhaps a bit tight in the bust but the way the (fake) buttons are it’s not noticeable. Got many compliments. Has pockets. Wore all day for a work event running around and it was great. Lightweight. Perhaps a bit low in the plunge for some but didn’t bother me.

Absolutely Loved This Dress!

This dress is fabulous! There’s an elastic smocking across the back that allows for a snug fit without being tight and restricting on the belly. The low neckline and puffy sleeves are beautiful and the length is perfect. I wasn’t sure about the pattern but it was so comfortable and flattering.

Polished and professional

Loved this dress- it was my second time renting it. Lightweight cotton that somehow doesn’t wrinkle. Deep pockets. Flattering short sleeves with soft elastic smocking. Buttons down and ends at a demure length for work. I love it. Polished and professional.

It was a lot of buttons to get undone and done again, but worth it once it was on. Light material and a flattering fit and flare look.

Love this dress

I rented this dress in another print loved it then and love it now. The material of this one was a little different but it was still super comfortable and flattering. The smocked back is what makes this dress so comfortable and the material was super light weight.

Comfortable and flattering with a great print

This dress has a great pattern and flattering silhouette. It's pretty versatile and very comfortable. I'm not a big fan of elastic in the back because I think it gives a more casual look, but on the upside, it also makes the waistline forgiving. It's on the long side for petites but still flattering.

I wasn't expecting to be wow-ed by this dress, but I was pleasantly surprised with how well it fit and with the quality of the fabric. It's a nice thick fabric that could work for summer or fall!

Plain Jane

This is a solid summer work dress but nothing too special. The chest is a tad odd because the style of the dress is pretty conservative overall but then the chest has these cups that frame your chest almost suggestively. A little “prairie girl gone wild” 🤷🏽‍♀️
