Great dress
(January 5, 2012)
"I love this dress. I got the pink one (not my first choice in color but the others were out of stock). I got a large even though I'm usually a medium. I could have gotten a medium but the large isn't too big because the back is stretchy, which is good. It's long enough so I can wear to my internship with a blazer but still above my knees (I'm 5'7). Great dress, highly recommended."

Rod Broke!
(December 16, 2011)
"This is a really cool dress, it's mostly comfortable. My only complaint would be that the four different metal "rods" are very sharp, and on my dress one of them poked through the actual fabric, and I had to take it to the taylor's. It runs just a bit small on the bust, I'm a 32C, but am a pretty small person, and it really presses against my chest."

Nice Design but...
(December 16, 2011)
"I am 5'1 115 and 34B-C got this dress in XS which i normally wear and it was way too small. This is mainly because the bust part in the XS is definitely for 34A and smaller. Also the material is very thin in the skirt and a bit flimsy. It feels like it could fall apart very easily. All in all, it is a very very cute dress. You are really paying for the design, not really the quality. Because I find the design so unique I returned it and ordered a Small and Medium to try. My big concern is whether the bust part is going to fit."

Needs a bra
(December 13, 2011)
"I am 5'7" , 135 lbs, and 34 B. I bought this in a medium. The small was too short for me but I definitely need to wear a strapless bra with the medium and it is still short so that I have to be careful when bending down. It does not offer good support on top. The top part is also a little low so not all bras will work with this. The fabric is very soft which I like and I have not have any problems with the boning. Have only worn it once though and not yet washed."

(December 3, 2011)
"i am 5'4" and 120 lbs and i purchased a size small. i like this dress because i am a 34B and i can wear this with or without a bra and it stays on. some strapless dresses are either too tight in a size Small or they fit everywhere except the bust. this is a nice fit. fabric is soft, length is good. the pop colors are GREAT."

Great
(November 29, 2011)
"It looks amazing it's a little snug in the bust part but that can be good as it is strapless. I haven't had a problem with the boning in the dress like some of the others had. The material feels a little cheap but I got this dress on sale and it is very hot in purple"

Boning has fallen out + that may be a good thing
(November 27, 2011)
"This dress is reasonably cute and for the sale price, this may not matter too much. I've worn this dress twice, without washing it. The second time I wore it, the boning broke through the material that encased it. I had to pull it out in the bathroom of a restaurant and throw it away. On the positive side, the boning wasn't doing much anyway and the dress is more comfortable now."

"This dress looks great! Only thing is it was a little long for my preference. Skirts/dresses that length have to come in at the bottom for them to look good on me. I'm going to shorten it."

No regrets
(November 3, 2011)
"At first, I was hesitant to buy this dress because some of the other reviews stated that the dress was poorly made. But I wanted to wear it to Homecoming, and it was approaching quickly, so I decided to buy it in Teal. Unfortunately I wasn't able to go to my Homecoming, but I've worn the dress to several places such as Disney World, dates, and out to eat. It truly can be worn anywhere, and it is super comfortable & the colors are beautiful. I ordered a small (5'10", 130lbs, 34A) and it fit perfectly. The only downside is that the skirt wrinkles easily."

Great Buy!
(October 4, 2011)
"This dress is adorable and super comfy. It's not to short, but a suitable length for homecoming or a party. It's easy to take from day to night and from casual to fancy with the right accessories. The fabric hugs the body in a flattering way, and the colors are gorgeous. I got the peach one, and it's really cute! You've got to buy this dress!"

Wardrobe Staple with small but FIXABLE flaw
(September 26, 2011)
"I purchased this dress in the teal/grey/black combo, sz small (5'4 120lb 34B) fits perfectly! I always receive many compliments whenever I wear it, which is often. SO versatile, I've worn it for a night out with strappy sandals, to work with a black tee underneath and kitten heels, and just wore it to a friend's wedding with a shrug and black open toe booties.
ONLY complaint is... yes, the boning pokes small holes in the front of the dress. Easy fix, take the boning out and sew the small holes. VOILA! No one notices and it doesnt change the aesthetic. Also, I handwashed and hung to dry and I didn't have an issue with shrinkage as some other reviewers did. Maybe I'm just lucky?"

Ruined the first time I wore it!
(September 20, 2011)
"I bought this dress and immediately loved it. It fit awesome (I'm 5'4'', 130 lbs, got it in a small) and was so comfy to wear and I couldn't wait to wear it. BUT the first time I wore it out, by the end of the night the boning had busted through the material at the back of the dress! I'm hoping I can get it fixed, but since it shredded the material where it broke out, I'm not sure. Super disappointed cuz I was hoping for this dress to be my new standby."

LOVE..if they could only fix the corset!
(September 17, 2011)
"love this dress, wish it was made just a bit better! one of the metal stays came out of the corset-top the first time i wore it so i exchanged it. now every time i wear it i feel like i have to be extra careful because i really do love it and want it to last! i'm 5'10 125lbs 34a and the small fits me perfectly. adorable, just not made super well."
