First of all, this is a very high quality piece. I loved the swing style because it hid lumps and bumps without need any shapewear. The color is gorgeous, and the details of the dress (front seam, side slits without showing too much) make the dress extra special. For a petite gal, I loved where the length fell on me, above the knee and cute, but with quite a bit of coverage. I wore it a few days of brunches, errands, and wanting to look nice at a few appointments. It was perfect for the moderate weather we were having.

A little too attention-grabbing for just a dinner date; much better for clubbing. Loved the design, but needed a ton of shapewear to make it work.

I loved how I felt in this number--I got compliments all night! The dress fit pretty well--I did wear spanx and a strapless bra, but the dress laid beautifully on top of the support. I'm a short gal, and the length hit me at a flattering spot, and the slit on the front was modest enough but subtly sexy. I did have the tie the halter back instead of using the eye hook on the clasp to get the dress to fit correctly for my height. Additionally, I have a bit of a sway back, so the dress bunched at the small of my back. That said, the fabric was a dream--it had just enough stretch to be comfortable all night and not really get any wrinkles while still maintaining structure. Really loved the rental!
