I rented this dress without any reviews so it was a gamble. I ordered the size M & L and my 36DD bust required the large and it was quite a deep V. I didn't wear a modesty panel but some might. The V goes to beneath the bust, so a plunging bra is a must. It is a true wrap dress- the tie on one side slides through a hole in the other side and wraps around your back- so the wind can blow it open, but we were at a lakeside wedding and I had no mishaps. It Felt 70's flower child with the bell/draped sleeves, but still modern. I wore it with nude peep toe wedges. My husband wanted me to buy the dress. I gave it a one star deduction because of the size differential needed between bottom and top. I wear a size 6 pant, so the bottom was a little large, but with the cut of the dress it wasn't obvious. I'm 5'4 and in flats the back of the large just touched the ground. Take home message- size for your bust.

I wore this to my inlaw's 40th wedding anniversary party, which was like another wedding. The red is on the orangey-red side. The 10R fit perfectly, but the minute I pulled the zipper it tore. So I took the 12L to a tailor and she amazingly put in a temporary hem to make the 12L work. It cost an additional $34 due to the two layers (lining and outer layer) but it was well worth it to make the dress wearable. The cut is fitted under the bust but has give. The darts accentuate a small waist. The v neck is not too deep; the 12 did gape on me a little when I bent over and my bra peeked out a few times. The fabric is overall thicker with just enough stretch to make it comfy. The train was only an issue when I stepped backwards on the dance floor. The bow above the bum added some shape to my very flat backside, so I appreciated that. I would definitely rent again or buy it. I took away a star due to the zipper breaking.
