I'm 23 weeks pregnant and normally wear a 2/4, so I ordered the 6/8. The 8 fit a lot like the model -- loose and sheath-style (very chic). However, I ended up wearing the 6 because I thought it was very cute that it loosely hugged and accentuated my bump! This dress is very well-made and comfortable. I highly recommend it and would rent it again after baby!

I wore this for my 35th birthday and got tons of compliments. With a dress like this, fit is really everything. I'm athletic and a little curvy through the bum, and the dress fit me like a glove. It's quite easy to put on as long as you step into it, although the sequins are a little scratchy when you're putting it on. Once you're wearing it, it's very comfortable. I wore a nu-bra with it.

You'll feel incredible in this dress! It has a little bit of stretch, which makes it hug you in all the right places and also makes it very comfortable. It is short, but it doesn't ride up at all. I was a little bit worried about that since I'm 5'8, but I felt extremely comfortable with the length. I got compliments all night long. A couple of different women told me I had a perfect body (I don't -- nobody does, but obviously this dress did something right). You won't be disappointed!

The fabric is white with gold embellishment, which is hard to tell from the picture but incredibly gorgeous in person. It's super comfortable, which was great for me since the event included a relatively large dinner and I'm not one to skimp on portions. ;) It doesn't require shapewear, which is also excellent. It is a great gown and very festive for the holidays, but I wouldn't say it's a show stopper. It's "safe" though. It was my back-up, and it worked very well. Two notes on fit: It runs slightly big from the waist up. I wore a 2L and had to pull it up occasionally, but it wasn't too bad. Consider sizing down for your back-up size. The long is also very long. I'm 5'8" and wore 4 inch heels and it still skimmed the floor a little bit. I had to hold the gown when I walked around so I wouldn't step/trip on it, which is a little annoying when you're also carrying a clutch and a cocktail.

I love this clutch. It isn't big, but I was able to fit my phone, camera, lip gloss, money, and cards. It looked great with my gown and accessories. It has kind of a gold chain-mail look to it. I would definitely buy this.
