Just didn’t fit me well
It’s a pretty dress and the material is beautiful… such a pretty pinkish red/bright red depending on the light. And the pockets are awesome. The size 4R didn’t fit me great and I probably should have worn the 6P and it would have been better. I am also not comfortable showing this much cleavage. Because I’m short the dress hung too low in the back and people kept stepping on it. All in all, it’s pretty but was so uncomfortable on me in the rib cage and all I did was sit and eat (no dancing).

Luxe and beautiful
I just kept getting compliments all night long. It was absolutely beautiful on and the fabric was so soft and luxurious. Honestly I don’t think the pictures do it justice. For all the short girls out there, there was no problem with the hem line being too long. I did not wear a bra but the material was thick enough to not feel uncomfortable. Considering buying this… it is honestly so beautiful and comfortable. Perfect for spring formal affair or wedding.

Pretty dress
Fit was good. Comfortable and wasn’t too long (I’m 5’1.5” so this is hard to find)! I received a lot of compliments. If anything I felt self conscious about my stomach (always my problem area) because the dress didn’t do much to hide it but it wasn’t too bad not to wear. Wore shape-ware but no bra and felt comfy all night long.

Beautiful and comfortable
I am always cautious when getting a long dress because I am so short but this one was the perfect length for me. Fit perfectly and was so comfortable for a long night of drinks, dinner and dancing. Didn’t need to wear a bra and the boning helped it stay up so I wasn’t tugging at it all night. I got so many compliments. The pattern is small pink and blue flowers with gold metallic petal shaped spots.

Fit beautifully, pretty pattern
I am short so I had to wear my tallest heels but the dress fit like a glove and was extremely comfortable. I was afraid I would tear or snag the lace (with it being all over) but it was very sturdy without making it hot. I was a little over my ideal weight so I opted for the larger of the two sizes I ordered… I think it fit true to size.

Pretty, comfortable but more revealing than I expected
I got a ton of compliments and the dress was silky smooth and comfortable. I thought the pattern was beautiful and unique. I just didn’t love the opening in the front. I guess I am too much of a prude but I just didn’t feel comfortable showing off my side boob so I felt self conscious all night. I fit in to the size 4 but it really made the hole show off too much so I opted for the size 6. I wore it to a formal awards night for work.

Lots of compliments and comfortable!
Beautiful dress and fit correctly/as I expected it would based on the other reviews. I liked that the hemline was asymmetrical since I’m short and you never know about heels/height and how all that will come together. Very pleased! The material was silky smooth so in the pictures it looked thin but had a nice weight to it. I wore a regular strapless bra and was perfect. I like my shoulders so this was a nice dress to show them off. If anything was a negative, in pictures (not in person) it looks like my stomach is a bit “pouchy” because of the sheen/cut… and my stomach isn’t that bad. If you are ultra sensitive about your stomach as a “problem area” this might not be the right dress for you. I wore the size 2.

Perfect for sorority tea party.
This dress fit true to size. It hid my problem tummy area by poofing out just at the right spot. The frills made it just girly enough but still stylish. Hit right at my knee. Extremely comfortable and has pockets! I am hot natured and I thought the material might be too hot because it was thicker but I was fine. For the event I went to, we were all supposed to wear burgundy/maroon so there were 100 ladies wearing the same color... I still got compliments on this dress!

Great color and comfortable.
Pretty bright blue color without being too flashy. Perfect for a formal or semi formal depending on the accessories. I am small to medium in the chest area and the back seemed to gape open a bit but it totally covered my tummy problem area. Felt totally comfortable dancing and sitting.

Fit great!
Compliments all night long! I didn't wear a bra but I felt like the 6 fit me every where well enough that I didn't need one. It was still a little loose in the shoulders. Definitely a good dress for someone hiding a tummy because it flares out right between the breast bone and belly button (not an empire waist). In the front the hem hit just at the top of the knee and in the back it hit at the middle of the calf. I was worried the sequins would rub my skin raw under my arms but it was very comfortable. Overall a wonderful RTR choice!!
