Loved 😍❤️🥰 this gorgeous floral graphics, colors, and comfortable but chic fabric and gorgeously fitting and tailored LK Bennett dress; I’m obsessed! 

Perfect for a Ms. Wheelchair USA Ambassador social media post to stand out and showcase the glamour of women with disabilities! I found the dress TTS, and looked equally beautiful standing and sitting in my wheelchair and absolute win! 💚🫶🏼💕 Would be easy to style for work, cocktail party, event, and so much occasions-rent today; I received the sweetest and loveliest compliments wearing this unforgettable dress. 

TY immensely and forever to RTR! ❤️🙏🏻🫶🏼🥰

Absolutely loved this dress, perfect length. Wish this was a bit more flattering in the fit I would size down ❤️

The chest was a bit big and the straps fell down every so often but overall the dress was extremely easy...flattering, comfortable, and pretty. 

I really liked the print, it fit but was quite snug in the top. If you’re in between sizes, definitely size up. 


Super flattering fit for a small chest, with a little extra room in the tummy for comfort. It does run a tad small but I think it was more flattering that way.  The fabric is very thin but gorgeous. Many compliments!

Wore this to a “summer time chic” wedding and loved it. Fit true to size! 

Wore this to my best friend's wedding shower and it was ADORABLE. I got so many compliments. It was a pretty tight like other reviewers mentioned so definitely size up. I felt like I was in a corset; I couldn't wear a strapless bra and had to wear spanx, but again so cute that it was worth it for just a day!

I sized up my normal US size 10 to a 12 (UK 14 —> 16) per the reviews and was way too big!! I think likely would have been happy with my size (US 10/UK14), so I’m not sure if both have always been listed and that’s why so many had to “size up”. I’d say go with your normal size (US)! 

The fabric feels like a raw silk but has a slight sheen where you can wear it for a range of events depending how you style — I wore for a bridal brunch with sandals and a sweater but easily could’ve dressed it up for cocktail attire with heels. Overall fit was 9/10 for my body - I’m usually an XS/S on top, 25-26” waist but carry more weight in my hips and butt. If I was even curvier I could see the band around the butt towards the bottom of the dress being an issue - it was borderline clingy but easily fixed with spanx. Top was a smidge big but I’m used to that based on my body shape and wasn’t an issue! 

I didn’t wear it for the event I had but it was a beautiful dress I hope to rent again & wear. Lightweight material & comfortable. I also ordered 2 sizes up per the other reviews & suggest doing the same. 

This silk dress is a must rent. I do have to agree it runs a little on the small side. I am usually a 2 and sized up to a 4. The length fit well for my height and the straps were a little long but workable. It was gorgeous at the wedding and got so many compliments. 

Wore this to a rehearsal dinner and got tons of compliments. It fit perfectly and was super comfortable

I am a 34 DDD with short shoulders and unlike other dresses without adjustable straps, this fit me well in the bust. This is a strapless bra required dress. I got SO MANY compliments and I love it! I wish I could buy it but the dress is definitely not $800 quality. 

Felt like I was wearing a corset but the whole month the size I needed was not available for swapping.  

Fabric is very thin. Be aware of sizing. I normally wear a 4 but all the reviews said it ran small so I sized up. I think the US4/UK8 would have been perfect. The UK 10 was a little big. Tea length, no pockets. 

Top runs big and fabric is INCREDIBLY thin, like almost tissue thin 

I wore this to a bridal shower and the material was much lighter than I expected - it is more of a daytime dress than an formal/evening dress. Great for garden parties or daytime brunch.

Gorgeous dress and pattern. I wore it for dinner once and would’ve worn more if it wasn’t so snug in the chest. It zipped up without difficulty though. Wish I got an 8 instead of a 6 to have some breathing room in the chest. 

Loved this dress so much! Perfect for a summer wedding on the more casual side. A perfect balance of fancy and casual and so comfortable for dancing

Not much shape, but stunning print & colors. Easy to wear and looked beautiful for our daytime event.

Can dress it up or down - pairs great with sneakers and heels. I received many compliments. 

I wore this to the Kentucky Derby Oaks day and it was fabulous. Light, breezy, definitely added spanx underneath as the material could be unforgiving. 

This was such a pretty dress, the colors were rich and the fabric was nice, if a little thin. I just don’t think I have the right body type to make it work. It was tight in the hips but big in the waist. I can imagine it being perfect on someone a little more straight figured. 

The color way was very pretty but the material was so thin it made it feel less expensive. Didn’t end up wearing 

This dress would’ve been PERFECT, but I would’ve needed to size up one or two sizes. It wouldn’t even zip halfway. It’s also way thinner than I thought it would be!!!

I didn't really like the material and I felt a bit like a flowery sausage stuffed into casing lol

Not too formal, not too casual. Another person said it well, easy to dress up or dress down. I rented it as a backup to another dress for a slightly formal wedding in Laguna Beach. The material is thin so it wasn’t as formal as I’d like. I’m also 14 weeks pregnant and the rib cage got a tad tight after I eat. I ultimately only wore it on a day date. 

Didn't wear because too tight for a bra, and too tight for without one.  Def size up.  But SUCH a beautiful cut and fabric.  Loved the silhouette!!! 

I was invited to a summer garden formal wedding and thought this dress was a perfect fit, but please know it is definitely more of a sundress than formal attire for a wedding. I did not end up wearing, however for a different occasion like a shower it would have been more appropriate.

Beautiful but an awful experience with this dress due to the smell.
