Charlene Dress

This dress was gorgeous for a gala or Amy formal event. I am 4 months pregnant and it fit so well.

Perfect black dress to wear as a wedding vendor. Tons of compliments while working and paired easily with sneakers. Suuuper heavy material, so not ideal for temps over 70°F. Also i wouldn't have been able to tie the back without my partner, so keep that in mind! But 10/10 showstopper.

Fit perfectly

My daughter selected this for me for our aunt’s service. We always dress our best as an added layer of respect. This beautiful piece was easy and comfortable for 9 hours.

Heavy weight thick velvety material, Very luxurious. I wore to Tiffany’s in New York.

An excellent mid-winter dress! It’s like a comforter on, and I don’t think that it would work on smaller ladies because of that. It’s very thick and I needed to double tie the straps in back to keep them secure. You’ll need help getting this tied, so don’t dress alone. Also has pockets!

So comfy. A little bit heavy. Pockets. Didn’t have to wear a bra. WINNER.

Loved this dress for pregnancy- great neckline- lace up in the back and a serious thick and heavy material

Honestly, for a smaller bust, I could have gone down a size, BUT, there is no waist opening as far as a zipper or clasp, so I would stay with the 36 just to avoid risking not being able to get it over the head. Gorgeous though, great texture in person, worked amazing for my ribbon cutting ceremony and grand opening party.

Got so many compliments on this dress. Was the perfect work day ti work dinner outfit. But make sure you have someone to help you tie the back, was impossible to do on my own!!

Incredible quality. Fit as a glove! I am 15 weeks pregnant!

I love this dress so much but the formal event count in my life is slowing down. Is it the most flattering? No. Is it gonna collect compliments all night? Hell yeah. Will you feel conscious about the open bar and dessert at the end of night? Sure won’t. You’ll need someone to tie you in tightly though. While it may feel like you could size down, don’t. The panels in the back need to overlap so you don’t get a tacky gap between sides.

I wore this to my Mother’s funeral. It made me feel closer to her to wear something classically stunning. She was very fashionable and so I wanted to have something that honored her. It was comfortable, and felt like I was wearing art. The material is heavy, as others noted. I loved this dress.

Oversized skirt and hardly flattering- too small at the chest as well. But- detail was so lovely on the fabric and the back that I didn’t mind. Fun, ridiculous rental for a special occasion. As others have noted, dress is quite heavy.

BEAUTIFUL DRESS!! I got so many compliments and it was very warm due to the amount of material on the dress. Perfect for winter weather.

I am obsessed with this. All of the reviews are correct - this is so well-crafted, and it certainly has weight to it. The only struggle is figuring out the exact correct weather/temp situation where you can wear the thick material (which is gorgeous) but not be cold with the length/sleeves, lower neckline. The couple of times I wore it in the winter, I paired with a turtleneck and it was perfect. If you have the opportunity/event to rent this, you absolutely should.

Incredibly high-quality, heavy yet comfortable material with a beautiful design. Pictures do not do it justice. Very comfortable fit and flattering for everybody type. It also has pockets which were handy!

I absolutely loved this dress!! Definitely size down, I could’ve even gone one size lower than I did. It’s a lot of weight but simply gorgeous, wanted to buy!

This dress is amazing!!! I received so many compliments. The inside was silky but it was heavy in a security blanket type way. Only reason I’m not keeping for longer is it’s just a hair too big - even with the tie back I couldn’t quite get the fit I would have wanted. Still, absolutely adored this and will rent again!

It’s pretty heavy but not bad and still so comfortable!! Cannot wear a normal bra but material is thick so it was fine!

This is such a fun, comfy, dashing forward dress! I’m really short and the length with a platform boot was just fine. I wore for Christmas and NYE and felt great. It is heavy as others have mentioned but I still found it to be comfortable

This dress is incredible - larger than life, (and for any coat I owned!) I loved it - it’s very fashion forward and the skirt has its full own personality. Felt amazing in this, and got tons of compliments. Wore to a corporate holiday party and a friend’s private birthday dinner, loved it. Similar to other Hofmann Copenhagen dresses though, the empire waist can be a pain to get over my bust but once you’re in, it’s perfect!

I would keep this if I could justify the cost. It looked so good on me and I received many compliments. The fabric is just wonderful and unique. I'm typically an 8 in pants, but I ordered a 36 (4) because the skirt is so spacious and the back is adjustable. I'm very small-chested though so this ended up being a smart risk because it fit me perfectly. The length was also great and of course who doesn't love a pocketed dress. I'll be dreaming about this one!

I wore this to a black tie wedding. It definitely a fashion moment. The sleeves were just over the top and amazing. The quality of the fabric was high-end leading to this dress not looking cheap. I did tuck in the straps cause I didn’t like the top strap the one across the back.

This dress is heavy but the quality and fit is AMAZING.

This is a heavy embroidered fabric that is for a formal event- winter wedding. I was looking for something more casual so it didn’t suit my needs. Has pockets and good quality. Definitely need a friend to assist with ties in the back. Weighs about 30 lbs (maybe I’m exaggerating a little) Bust was tight on 36D, the ties help but you can’t have a typical bra with the low-cut back.

It was a little bit clunky on me but it’s a very pretty dress. It felt much more formal than expected so I didn’t wear it out.

Fits true to size. But the sleeves are soooo puffy. I wish they were slightly less big. Heavy material I wouldn’t wear in summer. Luckily it was 40 degrees when I wore it . Overall: true to size, sleeves so puffy, heavy material. I wore a large.

Beautiful texture and quality! Absolutely runs large and heavy but came across beautiful in photos. Would be perfect for a cool weather special event.

This looked like a very beautiful dress in person but I am torn because it kinda accentuated my pregnant belly in what I thought was not a flattering way. But I did get multiple compliments for this beautiful gown so it might just be others aware of its beauty.

If you're feeling fluffy and want to hide in a dress, this option is suitable for you. It is best suited for tall individuals.

The fabric on this was incredible. Will say if you're packing for a trip beware it will take up a lot of space. Felt v expensive and nice.

Got a zillion compliments at a wedding, even from the bartender! It’s so gorgeous in person. I will absolutely rent this again.

Gorgeous dress! Be prepared - it's heavy! Would recommend for cooler weather only

Because it ties in the back, you could size down if you wanted.

Wore this dress to my company holiday party and loved it. Great for winter as it's pretty heavy, and is long so helps with any wind. I wanted something maternity friendly (was 20w when I wore it) and it was very comfortable.

I'm truly obsessed with this dress. It is a statement piece - it's very bold in person but works well for fancy events. I loved how I felt and looked in this

Sooooo many compliments! Heavy fabric! Second time renting it! One of my favorites!

Unique material, but it makes the dress heavy. More appropriate for winter. The cut on the neckline makes it very flexible for people with more or less cleavage, though its hard to wear a bra because back is all laced up so hard to hide anything

This dress was stunning. The back was sexy, fabric was warm, and the pockets were so cool. Beautiful with patterned tights and platform heels.
