The bag is much larger than I expected, maybe about 12 inches long. But it is quite thin and the stap either accommodates an arm bag or you can put it inside and use it as a clutch. It was very clean inside and worked very nicely with two different outfits.

I really wish I had the size small as the medium was a bit too big, but it worked. I wore this to dinner and out in Vegas. It looks very boring on the hangar, but on, it hugs in all the right places and it's so sexy, without showing any cleavage or a ton of leg. The dress is almost a two piecer. There is a top and a bottom but they are attached. However, the design allows you to slide the dress up and down along your body until you get the fit and ruching wherever you prefer it. It's a forgiving dress, but not super stretchy so you can definitely wear Spanx underneath if you are more comfortable. I wore a crisscross back bra to accommodate the arm holes and how they curve in. The cut really shows off arm and back muscles. It's a beautiful and very comfortable dress. I loved the simplicity and how comfortable it was, but also loved how sexy it made you feel. My husband kept commenting on how beautiful I looked. I paired it with gold shoes and accessories. Beautiful and very classy. Highly recommend.

Wore to a wedding. Very pretty, gold was flaking a bit, but not too bad.

As the other reviews stated, this dress is super stretchy and you will need an extra set of hands to zip you up, but once up, it's comfortable and beautiful. The purple is darker and deeper than the picture shows- it's a beautiful color. The fabric is thick and stretchy, very nice and lovely tailoring with an inner layer that sucks you in and the outer layer with the ruching that covers any lumps or bumps. I'm 5'6" with a 34b and at 127, I'm pretty straight and narrow, but I do have a bit of a tummy as I have two small kids and I'm 37 years old. So I was nervous about getting a medium as it was the only size available for my event. It fit great and I am betting I probably could have gotten away with the small, the fabric is so stretchy and forgiving. The ruching along the sides allows you to adjust where you want to hide things and to some degree how short you want the dress to be. I didn't use any Spanx, but could have fit them under. I did use the dress tape to tape the side of the dress down- you really can't wear a bra with this, but it works great if you just tape the side down to avoid extra side boob exposure. I wore it with nude colored ankle strap shoes, gold jewelry and the gold Kate Spade purse from RTR. Perfect for a night wedding at the Wynn in Las Vegas. I got a lot of compliments and stares. My husband could not keep his hands off me. It's a beautiful dress, I didn't want to take it off and I would absolutely rent again.

Very pretty dress, but I didn't end up wearing it as I liked the other dress I got better. The fit is just a bit small or close to true to size. I'm 5'6" and 127 pounds. I'm athletic frame, but with a bit of a tummy (I'm 37 with two kids). I got a 4, which fit just fine, but I didn't think it really did my frame any justice- it just sort of hung loosely on me. Maybe the 2 would have been better. Or perhaps I just wanted a more fitted dress (which is what I ended up going with). The colors are beautiful- they were bold, but not too crazy overwhelming. The detailing was pretty. I was surprised by the reviews saying the inner shell is too short, mine was definitely not short. I'm an average height girl (5'6") and the dress came to about 5-6 inches above my knee (mid thigh I guess) and the inner blue slip came to the gold hem on the dress, so there was no see-through area at all. The inner slip on my dress was not at all tight (as some reviews have said), the slip was loose as was the dress. Pretty dress, I just liked my other options better, but I don't know that it's worth the rental cost. It didn't seem to have the tailoring and structure that I would expect for a dress in that price range. Or perhaps I just prefer my dresses more fitting with some structure.
