This dress hit just the right note for an opening at The Met. Fits TTS with enough support in the bodice that I did not need to wear a bra, which is a rarity for me. The bodice material is more stretchy than structured, so I added a belt to delineate my waist. On my 5’4” frame, the hem hit me a little above my ankles so that my shoes were fully visible. The bubble-hem skirt has a lot of flounce, making this a super fun dress to wear; I didn’t want to take it off when I got home! It’s easy and comfortable to wear and even has a pocket on the left side. Materials felt substantial and of high quality. This is a great dress for a middle-road formal event that can be pushed more or less formal with the right accessories. 

I would have ordered a S but it wasn’t available so I gave the XS a try.  It worked (S would have r worked too)!  Got many compliments and it was so comfortable!  Perfect for a spring formal wedding at a vineyard!

Loved this dress! TTS and super comfortable. I got compliments at all night and it was perfect for our kiddo's preschool gala. 

Wanted to buy this! Insanely comfortable and flattering, fits true to size. Wore for a dressy birthday dinner 

This dress was so fun, I loved the bubble hem. However, it was tight through the chest. If the bodice didn't have a lot of stretch I wouldn't have been able to wear it. Fit in the waist and skirt was fine. The neckline was also a bit weird, the shape of the one shoulder didn't sit quite right and was fussy.

So classic and beautiful, would love to just buy this one...maybe someday! I'm a violinist so I wore this for a few different events. 

The top fit a little big. I'm a 34D and still found the top could have been more snug. If you're between sizes, I would size down!

Perfect length and can be dressed up or down! Super comfortable 

Wore it to my best friends black tie optional wedding, was not a bridesmaid but she requested I wear black. Im short so renting can be hard with the length so midi usually fits as full length for me so this was perfect! I was nervous the material on the top made it too casual but it was fine, just wore nipple covers and first time I haven’t felt the need to wear spanx to a wedding in a while which was a added bonus! Would definitely recommend to any short girls 

Wore to a formal event. So comfortable. Fir was perfect! 

I wore this dress to a work awards banquet and it was perfect - I felt beautiful but still work appropriate. I ordered a medium with a small as a backup and both fit but I ended up wearing the small - the top is thick but stretchy and I felt like the tighter top didn’t bunch up as much. I wore a strapless bra under it just for more support although I could have gotten away without one.  The balloon hem was really fun and different, and the pockets meant I didn’t need to carry a purse.  Rent this dress, you won’t regret it!

I wore this dress to my work’s holiday party - I feel like it could be dressed up to be black tie or kept more low key as I wore it. It was super comfortable and flattering and got TONS of compliments. Great reliable option.

I wore this to a friends wedding and it fit like a glove! The fitted top part is made of a quite thick material and has a little stretch, but not much so keep that in mind. I felt like I was having a Carrie Bradshaw moment in this dress PLUS it was flattering so I could eat in peace without fear of bloating, like one would in a body con dress. 

It fit well BUT made me look really big/wide.
Ended up not wearing.

This fit true to size, and super comfy to wear all night and dance in. Easy to wear and an instant chic moment. The skirt was longer than I expected, and the bodice not as elongating on my 5'8 frame. Would still highly recommend! 

Perfect dress for a black tie wedding! Fits true to size. I am 5’3”, 120 lbs and wore a small. Top is snug and comfortable. Length is slightly above the ankle. Lots of compliments!

Loved, will rent again. Would be interested in one size down, it was a little loose for me in the chest.
