Well-made eye catcher

This dress was super well made and so cute. It’s sort of a lot of material, but it’s short enough that it shows off enough leg to make it flattering. Plus it has pockets! Perfect for a Mexico vacation.

Cute!

The dress is gorgeous, with nice details and great color. Large fit, with plenty of room. The fabric is kind of heavy so this dress will take a lot of bag space if you take it for vacation.

The perfect photo dress!!

I took photos with this dress in South America and it was the perfect dress. I got endless stares and compliments. I think the bright color really helped. Will definitely rent again at some point for an event

Short vacation dress

Love! Ended up wearing it as a bathing suit, cover-up, as I didn’t feel confident in wearing a dress this short out to dinner. But if you have the right shape, it is just adorable, and has all of these lovely little touches that make you feel fancy.

Fun, gorgeous, obsessed with this color

The fabric is thick but the length of the dress and the style of sleeve makes it cool and roomy. Very comfortable and flirty. I wore it to dinner with some sandals. Will absolutely rent again!

I totally loved this dress! There are so many fun details - the scallop hem, the pom poms, the huge sleeves! A little on the short side, but I still wore to work.

Perfect party dress

It was so comfortable and with pockets! I paired it with sneakers for a more casual fit for my birthday party but I got so many compliments. Beware it is a very short dress. I am 5ft, 113lbs and a short torso.

Fun dress

Loved this dress. I don’t usually wear super short things, and while it was short, I still felt comfortable. There is definitely a lot of fabric but I didn’t feel like I was swimming in it. Super cute and not too hot for summer!

Beautiful dress but short

This dress is well-made, with a vibrant color and impressive fabric details. However, for taller individuals it may run short. At 5'7", I found it difficult to bend over without feeling restricted.

Rented multiple times!

Love the color of this dress and rented it multiple time in different sizes. Supposed to be more oversized and when you rent your true size you definitely get that look. Only bad thing about sizing down is the length can be too short!

High quality and memorable

Although this isn't the most flattering dress, it's very cute. Short enough that it does show some leg. The eyelet and pompom detail make it feel extra special.

Wore this during a vacation to Hawaii. The material was a little heavy, but it worked well as a dinner outfit. Loved the details and quality of this dress. The details and quality are great. I’d love to rent again for a vacation or event in the summer

Bright but A LOT of fabric

Loved this dress and it has pockets! It was perfect for a Mexican vacation getaway in November. Loose and billowy which I loved, but there is SO much fabric and it is heavy fabric - I could not imagine wearing this when it is warmer than 70.
