Incredible!! Just amazing

Such a well made dress, comfortable, breezy, and it has pockets!! Fits like a glove- so many are used to vanity sizing- this fits like a true 0! Love love love.

This dress was a dream.

Walked 11 miles in it in 85° weather and transitioned it from daytime as a tourist to dinner at a nice restaurant. Linen and very breathable. Fit was incredible in the front and back-- the back is gorgeous.

Enjoyed wearing it

It was a bit snug in the chest, but I run into that problem when I am between a a D and DD. I couldn't zip it all the way up but mostly because the zipper was so tight. I ended up throwing a blazer on and looked fine. The rest of the dress was just right. Black linen and very pretty.

Everyday elegance with length

Beautiful dress, fit and movement in it; however, you will need some sort of heel or height added because it can trip you up with its length. Rent it and you may end up buying it...like me.

Bra was an issue but back was striking.

Didn't Wear- Too Small

Very small and constraining zipper made this unwearable for me.

Beautiful linen dress but way too small to wear

So tiny! Ordered the medium and it looked extremely small and no stretch. Nice detail and in great quality with rich black linen. Wish the size worked.

Teeny Tiny

Zero stretch and no give around the ribcage/bust. I'm an A cup and have always worn a size S or XS in dresses, tops and jackets. I couldn't even get this zipped. I thought I was putting it on wrong, or needed to adjust the straps or something, but it was just ridiculously tiny. Definitely size up!

Too small, no stretch

This is VERY SMALL in the bust. I have a very small chest and can literally squeeze into pretty much anything but I couldn’t even get this zipped. It has absolutely zero stretch. Size up! If you have a very large chest you might just want to pass.

The people I was with.

I couldn't even zip it up. The size was so far off and tiny.

Order up at least one size

Everything I rented was a size 4 and this dress was as well, it didn’t even come close to zipping. Had it fit, it was very cute, soft and light .
