Lot of compliments. I felt elegant.
Fit was perfect, length was great, style was on point. Best of all, it accommodated my 44DDD bust line and the length was great with my 5'8" frame. I'd suggest kitten heels, though. The sleek lines helped to smooth my belly, the mermaid skirt was very cool and retro feeling. I also liked the faux off the shoulder style which helped hide my upper arms while but was still summery. I brought along a stole, but I didn't need it. I haven't felt that good in dress in a long time. I'll be renting more of this particular designer.

didn't wear it
There was nothing wrong with the dress. The fit, the style, the material were all great. I think it would have been even better with a petticoat underneath to give the skirt more volume, but it was still lovely. The 22L was just the right length for my 5'8" frame in heels. The color was perfect. And, best of all, it accommodated my 44DDD bust with no issues. it was also very slimming. The only reason I didn't wear it was because the other dress I found was more flattering.

I didn't wear it
I was almost in tears because the dress was so lovely, but too small. I got a 20 thinking that would work, but my bosom (44DDD) was not having it. I think it might have worked if the size has gone up to a 22, but the designer doesn't make a dress that size. It is possible that my bust size would be the only issue if it came in a 22. Other than that, the dress, the fabric, the style was amazing. It FELT expensive. I was going to wear it to a back tie optional wedding and it would have been perfect. Any woman wearing this will feel like. a princess. I got the long and I'm 5'8", and with heels it would e dusting the floor, which would be perfect. But again, if you are big busted, it's probably not going to work for you.

I didn't wear it to the event.
Unfortunately, I wasn't able to wear this. I believe that it would have fit had there been one size up for the 20 which is apparently the largest the designer makes, sadly, because her designs and dresses are so beautiful. I will say that it probably would have looked amazing, but it is not for big busted women. The fabric was sumptuous, but there was an issue with the stitching around the zipper. Anyway, if you wear up to size 20 and aren't big busted, this would be a great dress.
