Great dress for a cool, spring bridal shower!
I wore this dress to host my best friend's bridal shower. It was the perfect dress for a cool, early April day. It was easy to move around in, which was great for set-up and clean up of the event. I could have worn either the medium or the large, but the large had some gaping in the back, so you would have been able to see my strapless bra. The medium fit well and was long enough for my 5'8" self!

Perfect, danceable dress for an evening wedding
The medium fit perfectly and was a great length with 1" wedge sandals. The underskirt was surprisingly short, especially in the back (the reason for only 4 stars!), but with the dark overlay it wasn't noticeable. The wedding was in the evening, but if it had been outside during the day, I might have been more concerned that the underskirt was so short. The pattern was gorgeous - I also rented the suggested rose gold earrings and brought my own metallic clutch.

A perfect splash of color for a black tie wedding
This dress fit true to size and was gorgeous for my sister-in-law's black tie optional wedding. I'm 5'8" and wore the regular length with flats - it was the perfect length without heels! I didn't need to wear a bra and felt comfortable all night. Easy to dance in and I got tons of compliments! I wore chandelier earrings and carried a metallic clutch. The dress didn't need any more styling than that - it absolutely speaks for itself.

I rented this dress for my sister-in-law's wedding. I received SO many compliments!
When I rented this dress, I was a little concerned about the high slit and what undergarments would work best. I would recommend pasties and garment tape to keep the top in place. It was a little difficult to sit because of the high slit, but it was absolutely worth it! Such a fun dress to wear and it photographed beautifully. I wore the regular length because my heels were not very high. It was perfect for black tie optional wedding in the cold Chicago winter!
