RENT IT

The fit of this dress was perfect. I’m in between sizes, so I sized up for bust and it was absolutely the right call. Fabric and construction felt high quality. Wore this to a wedding, and would rent again if the opportunity arose.

Beautiful & Comfortable!!

This dress was stunning & I got so many compliments!! Wore it to a June wedding, loved it with both the sleeves up for dancing & off the shoulder for photos. I am only 5’ and didn’t have to worry about the length! Also I am very busty and it held up well without a bra!

Lovely dress!!

I absolutely love this dress. The fabric is gorgeous and the color is even prettier in person. I’m 5’3” and about 100lbs and it fit nicely. Not too tight, just right. It did fall longer on me since I’m on the shorter side. Would absolutely rent this again. Perfect for a more conservative event!

Great dress for a summer wedding

This dress was a hit! A little tight on the chest but I do have a big chest. My backup size was a 16 and it was too baggy and long. Fits true to size.

Nice dress, size up

For you voluptuous women - the cleavage is real. It’s a lovely dress - I usually wear a 14, but needed to size up one size. It fit great, hit the curves just right. Very nice dress. It looks stiff, but it’s actually very comfy.

SO MANY COMPLIMENTS

Nothing bad to say about this dress. It was truly a well-made item that made me feel like a Disney princess in the flesh. The detail is gorgeous. I wore it two days in a row to two different weddings because I loved it so much.

Makes you feel pretty yet comfortable!

Great fit! I feel like the sizing was true to size. I was able to wear without a bra but it wouldn't have been too tight if I did wear one. I'm small busted. I'm 5'4" and the length felt great too. We didn't party TOO hard at this wedding but dancing in it was not hard either!

Simply beautiful!

This dress is absolutely gorgeous in person. I'm currently between sizes so the 10 was a bit big in some places (chest and shoulders), but for the most part it fit perfectly and I genuinely felt like a million bucks. Easy to walk, sit, and dance in! My only real complaint is that the sleeves fell down a bit (again, this could be because the dress was a bit big for me in places), and the sleeves started to irritate my armpits near the end of the night. Overall, a definite win!!

Great for a bridal shower

Fit pretty true to size- I go between 4-6 depending on the style of the dress but it was a true 6 and not too tight while still being form fitting. Sleeves were a bit big and fell down my shoulders a few times, but overall beautiful dress and would rent again.

Stunning dress!

Dress is true to size. If you are between sizes, I recommend sizing up due to no stretch from fabric. Wore this dress to a Spring wedding and felt very chic. I think it's very flattering for petite women like me

I got so many compliments on this dress. Classy but still shows off your curves.

It was a little tight around the top, I am 5’5, 155 pounds, and a 36DD. I am an athletic build.

SO well made and received so many compliments!!!

LOVE this dress, especially the puff sleeves!! I usually wear an 8 in more fitted dresses and a 6 in more loose-fitting or A-line dresses. I wore the 8R and it fit like a glove! I was a little worried about how the bust would fit, because I'm a 34DDD, but the dress worked perfectly and comfortably with a strapless bra and still looked tasteful! The material of this dress is so nice and sturdy, so I did not have to wear Spanx. I wore this to a wedding and received so many compliments!

Gorgeous detailing and color!

I wore this for my cousin's rehearsal dinner in Montana and it was perfect for the occasion - I absolutely loved the sleeves and the detailing! It fit well and I felt very comfortable in it. I was mostly standing for cocktails or sitting for dinner which was perfect, but I don't know that I would have been able to move as much for dancing, so keep that in mind when choosing which event to wear this to. Either way, I highly recommend this rental!

YOU NEED THIS DRESS. PERIOD.

I was a little nervous at first ordering the dress based on reviews but WOW I am so happy I did. I ordered a 10 with 8 backup and both fit! So just needed to go with the one that was most comfortable. It hugs all the right places and is just stunning. The 8 was too tight on my chest so it made me looked squished so I went with the 10, but if I had to wear the 8 again could have 100%. I did wear a bra but that’s because I need too, you might not so all depends on your comfort level. I wore a strapless. I did wear spanxs too but that is also optional because I didn’t really need them! The sleeves can come down if you slouch your shoulders, but sitting up straight they were up all night. They did start to fall as I was getting more drinks in me but it still looked great as an off the shoulder. Got so many compliments!

This dress is a showstopper. I had so many people who I knew and didn't know approach me telling me I looked like a princess. The dress is fitted without being uncomfortable, and was a very nice material. Works for women with larger chests too.

Cinderella!

Just like other reviews have said, this dress is just lovely! Definitely giving Cinderella vibes and was extremely effortless for the rehearsal dinner I wore it to, so many compliments. It's definitely form-fitting so I wore shareware and had to be a little more aware as I ate dinner ;) But I really enjoyed it and also loved the midi length.

I loved this dress! It fit great and I got many compliments on it! The sleeves are a little bunchy in the arm pits, but I got used to it. The quality is amazing.
