I wore this to a Wisconsin wedding and really loved it and got a lot of compliments on it.  I felt like I was in between the sizes so I wore up to be more comfortable but the 10 could have worked as well. 
Things I loved were the length (I'm 5'8" and really liked were it hit), the bright colors that really stood out and photographed well, and the lightweight material which was nice for warm weather.  
I felt the chest area was pretty big and for me that's saying something as that's generally wear dresses are too snug on me. It was a lot of flowy material in the chest on both sizes.  I was able to use the wrap around belt to tighten some of it, but even in the photos you can see it looks a tad baggy in the chest and armpit area.  For me I would rather it be a bit loose in the armpits than tight so maybe that's the trade off for me!  
Overall it moved into my top ten rental.  

I wore it for work and for a new client pitch with a suit jacket and pumps. I also dressed it down with a Jean jacket and flats. Both looks were super cute and it's an awesome versatile dress. Considering buying it. 

I couldn't resist buying it, and it was affordable :)

Received lots of compliments. Wore it to a fancy ladies brunch. Great fit & comfortable 

I wore with a small Cotten jacket, cropped because it was cold out. Still a great wear. 

You can dress up or dress down. Color and patterns are great 

I loved this dress! Very appropriate for church but still made you feel sexy and confident. The wrap cinched and complimented your waist and the length believe it or not I loved! I normally don’t wear “midi” length but I was very pleased! 

Great fit and nice to show off shoulders in the right season. I had hoped to wear to an outdoor dinner and ended up wearing to work with a black blazer and sandals. Works both ways! Previous reviewers mentioned awkward blousing, but this did not bother me. 

All the reviews are true - the dress runs large; I was able to wear the size 8. You do have to be cautious of the blousy top, but if you tie the strings tight around your waist and purposefully blouse out the top, it looks great. Loved this dress - perfect for a Mexico beach wedding. 

Loved this dress & received many compliments! The color & print are gorgeous! Wore to work twice and to a play with nude heels. I am in between sizes and glad I sized down. I had to figure out how to tie the belt where I liked it and found it best wrapped around the waist a few times. Would rent again!

I adore this dress, I can't even count the compliments I received, there were so many. Highly recommend. 

I had to go to an Easter brunch at a country club, so no black allowed.  This was so comfy and bright without being obnoxious.  Not super flattering at the waist but not a deal breaker either.  Sash at waist is long!

Rented this for a conference in Texas and it was perfect! I read the reviews so I sized down quite a bit. Normally I am a 6 and I got the 2R which fit perfectly. 

Originally ordered the 8R but got the 6R as a back up because of the reviews and ended up wearing this size.  The top is very billowy so if you have a smaller bust there will be material that gathers, but it wasn't a deal breaker for me.  As a taller woman, this dress hit at a nice length and I was able to wear to a semi-formal wedding.  Also great for dancing and easy movement.  There is a lining which helps the dress sit well, but I'm not sure how it would handle static in the air.  Would recommend sizing down though.

Beautiful dress! It's lined, and very well made. Has a somewhat fitted waist, but then float skirt that fit perfectly over my growing belly! 

I felt like a million bucks in this dress! The colors are so vibrant and the cut is extremely flattering. I'm an apple shape and this really made my waist appear smaller. The length was perfect for me (5'2). I will likely be purchasing this dress I love it so much. 

I almost didn't get this dress but there was something about it that kept calling to me, so I went for it and I'm glad I did. I read all the reviews (which are mixed / mostly negative due to the shape of the garment) and based on those, I sized down. It was the right choice. The 4 fit well and I think the 6 would have been too roomy in the top section of the dress which is why some people weren't happy with it. I'm wearing this dress for a warm-weather event and I have a feeling it's going to turn heads. Normally, I stay away from flouncy-skirted dresses because I have thick thighs and the fabric tends to drape in an unpleasant way. But the cut of this dress, to me, is perfect. I love how it looks, and honestly I wish it came in more colors because I'd want to wear them all. The pattern is so pretty, and I'm not one to wear patterns so that says a lot!

Nice fit and perfect length, liked that I could show off my arms, beautiful and versatile dress 

Flattering for a pear- or hourglass shape. Wear to church, wine tasting, work, date night. Stunner. Fits generous in the waist and hips and bust. Wear a bra with a racer back or hook as straps could peek. 

Don't let the modest cut fool you. This dress is a head turner. The bold colors and large print is fun for any occasion while the length and coverage make it appropriate from day to night. 
Loved it so much I have rented it twice! 

Great length, beautiful color, and nice material. Perfect for work. 

Gorgeous print & color combination! As comfortable as a sun dress but you're considered the best dressed person in the room. Sure to grab attention & compliments and the wearer radiates confidence! Would definitely rent again! 

Runs large (I'm between 2 and 4 and wore the 0) but if you size down, it should be okay! Loved the long belt for styling different ways. 

Didn't wear because it came too late but I would rent again 

A great fit!! Love the pockets. Rent this!!

The fit is perfect on my.  It hid all my problem areas and had plenty of room in the bust area.  I find that a lot of dresses are too tight in the arms and this was perfect!  If you're small, you could probably size down.  The color and pattern are gorgeous.  The fabric is light so it's perfect in very hot, humid weather.  It does have a slip.

This was a beautiful dress.  I received a lot of compliments.  My only issue was the back bow.  Great color.  Fit great.

This dress was a good length and fit well everywhere except my waist where it looked a little bit frumpy. 

LOVE this dress.  Only loses points for a) having wide cut arm holes which sometimes show the bra through them, and then for having a very long waist, which doesn't always allow the belted portion to sit as nicely as it looks when standing.  I normally wear an 8 or a 10, and was very comfortable in the 8 - the waistband is elastic, there's lots of room in the hips, and the top portion is very blousy, so I imagine it would be good for ladies with larger busts as well.  Very comfortable, and I got lots of compliments at Mother's Day Brunch!

This dress worked out really well for me. It grew on me by the end of the night, and I got a ton of compliments. It runs large, and the bust especially had a lot of room, which for me as a very full busted woman worked out perfectly, and that's hard to find. I actually used the backup size (6) which is pretty unheard of for me, since most dresses don't give the chest room. I got a ton of compliments on this dress, it was the perfect pick for a wedding. Would rent again! Almost considered buying.

Wore it with a black jacket and black boots. Very chic! 

It's really roomy on the top. The long waist strings are little bit awkward in my opinion, but tied around twice and put into a ribbon in the front and it works. Figure flattering, popping color. 

It was very comfortable and I loved the colors but it was a little big and looked baggy on me. Overall not terrible but not the most flattering 

Unexpectedly large (a 10 would have been better), but great length and fabric. 

 Definitely has a lot of room. I ordered a 12, and many 12s are tight on me to where I need to 14. This one was swimming on me. The second picture is to show all the loose areas. I’m really not that huge, it’s the dress. All in all, it’s got a good lead, feels good wearing, it it’s appropriate for work. 

Though I did get a number of compliments, I did not feel that this was the most flattering dress. The length is awkward and it bunched around my hips. That said, it is very comfortable to wear and the colors are gorgeous!

Beautiful bright red and blue and very roomy and long

Did not love this dress. There is a second "tier" on the skirt that makes it pour out oddly when you wear it. I returned without wearing. 

What I liked: vibrant and bright color, runs true to size, cool print, nice length. 
What I didn't like: The mid section was a little puffy above waist and below waist, which made me look pregnant and pudgy (which I am not).  My husband confirmed that mid section was not flattering. The belt was super long (be careful in the bathroom ladies). I ended up wrapping around my waist 2-3 times and tying a bow in the back to create a more flattering silhouette. 
However, still wore it and made it work. I wish the mid section was more flattering. 

Great color/style.  Only complaint was that it was a little poofy right under the waist. 

I like the dress but didn't LOVE it. It's cute, but not "flattering" per say. I loved the colors and felt really comfortable in the dress.
