Received SO many compliments on this dress! I felt like the belle of the ball!
Dress fit true to size. Heavy fabric & lining held everything in place though I did wear a strapless bra. Very comfortable and the vibrant colors stood out in a sea of black formal wear. A beautiful dress!

Style not good on me. Cap sleeve was not so flattering with my upper arms. Colour is light blue not lavender.

Tried to wear this without a camisole but no way!
Fit is true to size but the vee in the front is too revealing for this 36D. Wore with a navy camisole and it worked but made it more casual. Great fabric and comfortable with a camisole.

I ended up not wearing as it was a bit tight across the upper back and the zipper is very sticky. I didn't want to force it and possibly break the zipper. Very cute style & I will try in a size up.

For me, this dress needed a bit more structure. I looked kind of blah on.

Beautiful stylish dress! Fabric was lovely. I would have worn this but the sleeves were not too flattering for my upper arms & the higher neck would be better on a younger person.

Jumpsuits are a difficult fit. The top portion fit great but the legs were snug and very short! A very cute style but the cut is odd.

I had this dress and another to wear to a charity gala. The other dress was a little more formal so chose it. Also, thought I might be fiddling with the elastic straps throughout the evening. The fabric is so cute & a cute modern style. I might try it for a less formal affair.

Nice style for a charity gala.
Nice fit and comfortable dress. At 5'7" I could have used an 8L. Just wore lower heels. Allow time to iron as the ruffle was difficult to get the hem to lie flat and not turn over. I spent quite a bit of time pressing. Overall a comfortable, conservative style.

A large but too tight through bust & arms so couldn't wear. Loved the fabric & style of dress though!

Definitely runs small. I wear an 8 or a 10 but the 10R was tight across my back showing undergarment lines

I didn't even try this on as I didn't like the fabric at all. What I thought was more like ecru lace was string woven in a fishnet pattern - it almost looked like macrame rather than lace backing.

Did not wear this item due to fabric.
Returned as fabric was not at all what I expected. Description should not say "silk" as fabric is viscose & poly, not silk! It looked kind of like parachute fabric. Also, the dress has tabs & rings to draw up the sleeves that are not shown in the picture.

Lovely evening for a GREAT cause!
True to size, comfortable & affordable. Rent the Runway made good sense as I am 15 lbs. overweight and didn't want to spend the money on a dress that would be too big to wear again. Rental process was easy!
