Beautiful dress, would wear again.

If you're between sizes and dont have a super large chest (I'm 34b), then size down. Otherwise, true to size. Loved wearing this. Very fun when you walk with the ruffles. Light fabric. Long but not bad, if you're petite it might be too long (I'm 5'7" and wore heels)

Fit amazing. No bra needed. I was worried about length but adjustable straps made it no problem and I wore 1.5" heels. Wore for a rehearsal dinner.

Perfect wedding dress

Probably my favorite rental so far! Wore this to a formal wedding in the redwoods and it was so flattering and comfortable. The XS fit but was pretty tight in the ribcage, the S was much more comfortable for a night of dancing. No bra needed! Length was perfect, wore a small wedge sandal and didn’t have any issues.

LOVE LOVE LOVE

I got this as a “oh that’s cute maybe I’ll wear it” option, and it far exceeded my expectations. Not too long on my petite frame, and I was even able to go braless!

Love!

Very comfortable! No bra or shape-wear required if that’s not your jam. Length wise, this dress landed a little above my ankles so it might be a bit long on someone shorter.

Stunning dress

I did not end up wearing this one but I honestly wish I had another event to wear it to. It fits perfectly and looks so expensive and flattering on. Hugs your curves but has just enough stretch to be flattering and comfortable. Adjustable straps and the tie on the chest makes it a bit easier to fit different chest sizes. The length and fun bottom hem make it really unique and easy to walk and dance in and I would 100% rent it again.

10/10 Recommend!

Super flattering, adjustable straps, and smocked panel in the back so it can fit just right. I wore heels and the length was not an issue, but without them the dress touched the floor. So easy to move and dance in! Loved this dress.

Really liked it!

Super pretty dress! Perfect for a September wedding. Felt very appropriate for semi formal/formal attire. I sized up to a M, thankful I got a second size! Small fit but there wasn’t a lot of room to breathe in the chest.

Beautiful dress! Loved the fit! Just a heads up, it’s LONG. I’m 5’8” and it was perfect.

Was a little worried about the bust, but it was ok! I’m a 34D.

Super cute and would work for a ton of wedding dress codes

Fit perfectly and was super comfortable. I would say the bust runs small. I am a C cup and felt like they didn’t have much room. But the cut of the dress was forgiving for it and super flattering overall

Better in person

Pleasantly surprise by this dress - it was perfect for an outdoor formal wedding. Hit just at the ankles, so not exactly gown length on taller people. It has a nice lining and the skirt moves beautifully for dancing. It’s a little low cut but it didn’t feel inappropriate. Recommend a sticky bra and fashion tape. I just wish the waist was a bit more cinched for extra shape.

Loved this dress, runs small!

Got both a M and L in this, I'm usually an 8 in dresses an could not zip the M at all. Sized up to L and was still tight in rib cage/waist. Still wore this to a wedding, and it's a really beautiful dress!

good choice for a warm weather formal wedding

- a tiny bit big around 26 inch waist but comfortable given smocked backing - adjustable straps - tie detail at bust; I could see larger chested folks having trouble with this fit - good length for 5”4’ with heels - easy and fun to dance in - really was thrilled w getting the dress in time thanks to a last minute date change; this saved the day as a last minute order

Very cute but runs small

I wore this to a formal wedding in a hot climate. It was perfect for keeping me cool, fitting the wedding dress code, and dancing. I got a lot of compliments and was very happy with it. BUT I originally ordered a size small because that was the recommended size and it was way too small. I sized up to a medium and that fit great. I am 5'3" and wore 2.5" inch heels and it was perfect.

Cute but sexier than it looks

This dress was beautiful but beware if you have boobs bigger than a B cup - I went braless and was worried about flashing a few times - This dress also looked A-line from the pictures but if you have butt and hips, it's more mermaid. Still flattering but I was more self conscious about pulling in my stomach.

Runs really small around the ribcage/waist!!

Loved this dress. Wore it to a floral themed wedding. Normally, things run big on top for me as I have a small ribcage and small breasts, but this dress was very tight on me, almost to the point of not being able to zip it!

Beautiful dress and fit

I ultimately didn’t end up wearing this dress as I chose another from my shipment. It is more fitted in the bust and abdominal area and I didn’t feel as comfortable wearing it while 13 weeks pregnant. Any other time it would have been great! The straps are adjustable. The length would be perfect with heels.
