Comfy and sexy

Wore it to a holiday party. This has a lower neckline than I usually rent but I went for it and received many compliments. The material is really nice and the lining provides adequate smoothing coverage. Really nice dress.

Fitted Vixen Glam

This dress was gorge! From the color to the velvety fabric, it is lux. Even though it has stretch and it’s not too structured, it was still very fitted so I needed shapewear and couldn’t wear a bra but so worth it. Got so many compliments

Comfy glamour

This dress is so easy to wear and comfortable, AND it’s stunning. I got so many compliments, and the rich, deep, red color should be flattering for most. I like that there’s a slit, but it’s not so high that you have to worry about flashing anyone inadvertently. Highly recommend.

Beautiful and comfy

Loved this dress. The burgundy color is flattering and the fabric was perfect for a winter formal event. Neckline is a bit low but a sticky bra takes care of that. Would definitely wear again!

Great winter formal dress!!

I wore this for a friend’s wedding that was in Boston in November. The dress looked great, was really comfortable, and fit super well! I also appreciated the partial sleeve and velvet since it was chilly that day.

5”1’ and shorter: get a fabric tape

Gorgeous gown that fit me perfectly except for the length. I fixed it up a temporary fabric tape. The v is very low, so keep that in mind. The color was absolutely stunning, a rich burgundy red. Did not want to part with this dress!

Perfect petite fit

I wore this for a winter wedding. I am 5’1” and was very worried this would be way too long. But with my 3 inch heels it was an absolute perfect fit in length. I got so many compliments in this dress! It is so comfortable and warm but not too warm. I would definitely recommend this style!

Gorg!

Perfect for a winter wedding. The sleeves are 3/4 length. The length was perfect for 1” heels. I received tons of compliments. The slip underneath hit about mid-thigh. I had to adjust it a few times because it hiked up as I walked. Would rent again and would definitely consider purchasing!

Beautiful color, more purple than in photos

Dress was comfortable and very appropriate for a formal occasion. Dress worked sitting down at a formal dinner as well as mingling and dancing. The deep V neckline and slit at the hem were just low/high enough to be sexy without being revealing.

Unique rehearsal dinner dress!

Omg I love love this dress! The color was perfect for fall. It was too long on me but I used fashion tape to temporarily hem it. Otherwise a perfect fit (5’0, 34C, curvy). The fabric was comfortable and had stretch to it as well. I got so many compliments especially pairing it this statement necklace! Would 100% rent again when the occasion arises.

Pretty and comfortable!

I loved this dress! The color was so pretty, the fit was flattering, and it was really comfortable. Perfect for a black tie optional Christmas party. I’m usually a 4 or a 6 but liked the fit of the 6 better.

Perfect for formal wedding

I chose a size 6 in this dress and it was loose around the waist/middle but perfect around the chest. So if you have bigger chest definitely be conservative in your choice of sizing, but not too much bc the dress was a lil baggy around the middle and I wouldn’t have gotten away with any bigger. Kinda velvety material. The vibe is definitely a conservative dress even though there is a V cut and a slit in the front.

Loved this dress! Wore to a wedding and got so many compliments! Warm but not hot for temperature. I wore in fall. I’m 5’6, 160-165lb depending on my week lol size 8 fit like a glove and was comfy. I am pear shape. I didn’t realize sleeves were 3/4 sleeves. Wasn’t bad but was different for me.

Used for a 1930s dinner event. If you're busty it'll show cleavage. It's flattering though and good length for petites.
