About the Designer
Shoshanna Lonstein Gruss launched her collection in 1998 because she was unable to find wearable, beautiful clothes for her body type. "I could never find a halter dress or strapless top that offered support for women who usually need to wear a bra," she says. Shoshanna Swimwear followed in 2001, and gave women with curves a new outlook on buying a bikini. Sold as separates, Shoshanna Swimwear features tops and bottoms that offer support without sacrificing the sexiness every bikini should embody.

Pretty Dress
This dress is a beautiful color - but was running huge to size. I am normally a 4 in Shoshanna Dresses - and it was falling down on me and there was a ton of fabric. Would recommend going down a size.

Adorable Dress
I have several other Shoshanna dresses and the Odette dress is a great addition to any closet! I wore the dress to a May wedding and received many compliments on the dress and plan on wearing it to another wedding later this summer. I love the ruffle on the chest and the pockets are a fun addition and make the dress feel very effortless and comfortable.
The only complaint I could imagine someone having is that the boning in the top of the dress can be a little uncomfortable after wearing the dress for a few hours, but it didn't bother me too much. I am larger on top and was not able to fit a strapless bra under the dress, but it is structured enough that it provided plenty of support without a bra. It's a fun spring/summer party dress!
Sizing: True to Size / As Expected

Just didn't work
The color and the fabric are gorgeous. Unfortunately, the size 8 was too large (I vary between 6 and 8, but as a 34D, I'm usually a size 8 in strapless dresses) in the waist AND bust. It wouldn't stay up without alterations. Also, the zipper got caught at the waist line (even when I wasn't wearing the dress), which was a little thick and therefore didn't really nip in at the smallest part of my midsection - it just sort of hovered around it and made me appear larger. I loved the pockets, though. I'm sad to send this dress back.
