Loved it so much I bought :)
A really pretty dress that feels unique and comfy. Is great to wear right now in the winter but I feel like I can wear it for Spring and Fall as well since it's still lighter.

"Chic & elegant - my kind of dress"
Worn for workday. I'm 5'9" and have never had issues with long dresses, but this one is rather long! If you wear it with a pair of heels you should be good. Considering buying this lovely thing. The arms and décolletage are slightly exposed from the sheer fabric.

Made my prairie dress dreams come true
Modest but felt more romantic than prim. It doesn't have much stretch but it didn't feel constricting. Really enjoyed wearing.

Effortless Glamour!
Love this! Love the high neck and it was pretty comfortable too. I did wear shapewear which wasn't totally necessary, but probably isn't a bad idea for apple-shapes like me--all other body-types could skip entirely. Like other reviewers mentioned, it's a LITTLE restrictive in the shoulders but I can't imagine it being an issue unless you're planning on dancing. It was long on my 5'3" frame but I wore flat boots and was fine- just had to hike it up when using stairs. Will rent again!

RTR Stylist Review
I absolutely love this feminine dress by BB Dakora! Running true to size with no stretch, I recommend wearing your true size for your primary size and going up for your back-up. This style is fitted throughout the midsection and loose at the hips making it super comfortable. It works for all cup sizes. You are not able to wear a standard bra with this dress so you should wear a Nu Bra or strapless bra since the neckline of the dress is sheer. At 4’8”, the length hit floor length on me and was sadly too long for me to wear. The dark floral pattern paired with the sheer neckline/sleeves and ruffle details give this dress a feminie boho chic vibe. Pair with red or black heels to complete your look.

Comfortable and easy to wear dress for fall/ winter (in CA)
Rented this for a dinner out with friends in SF. It fit me perfectly and was very comfortable (not too tight, nice material). The dark color makes it appropriate as a fall/ cooler weather dress even though the material is light.

Looks way better on
Saw this in the store and wasn't sure if I'd like it. Tried it on and it ended up being the perfect maxi dress for winter! Hits above my ankles and I'm 5'9. also runs a little big. I'm normally a 4 or a 2. But they only had a 0 in store and ended up fitting perfect

Really Flattering!
Tried the Prairie trend before only to feel frumpy, but this dress was surprisingly attractive due to sheer shoulders. It was ankle length on me at 5'8".

Tight in the shoulders, not super breathable
Pros: Office-appropriate, got lots of compliments, looked cute at happy hour, easy to layer jewelry on; cut well in the waist and length for my height. Cons: SO TIGHT in the shoulders. By 8pm I was ready to rip it off. Also had to wear stickies/strapless bra! Less than ideal for work. Can't imagine being large-chested and this dress working out. It also didn't breathe well? Like sure I had a stressful day at work but by the end it felt like all my stress-sweat had been trapped in by the dress. Oh ALSO the skirt part has no slit and is a column so I had to hold it up to walk/stride comfortably. Conclusion: Would rent again for like a dinner party in the fall.

Sooo many compliments
I wore this for a Stevie Nicks vibe and to stylishly beat the southern heat without worrying about whether I remembered to shave. This checked all the boxes! I got tons of compliments. The only fit issues are some tightness in the armpits where the ruffle is sewn in, and that I'll have to hem the dress. At 5'2", the dress drags along the ground, and I still stepped on it in my tallest heels (although I can't fault the dress for my shortness).

Fun details but hard to lift arms and stretch legs
I got this dress for everyday wear, though I ended up only wearing it for running simple errands. While the overlay flows, the shaping and lining is restrictive for my arms to go overhead and my legs to do a full stride when walking. Since I want every piece I wear to feel "danceable", I wouldn't rent this again.

This was a total miss for me
When I received this, neither the color, print, or fit where what I was expecting. Ended up pretty disappointed with this one and didn't wear it. It was giving off too much little house on the Prairie vibes for me and was a bit too small.

Chic Little House on the Prairie
I loved this dress! It's a great colder weather dress- although not because it's going to keep you warm. I work this with flat, cognac colored Frye booties. The dress hit at a good spot: wasn't too long, and also didn't look like I was prepping for a flood. Went braless with this dress and didn't see any nip outlines. Not tight around the neck either.

Wore this beautiful dress to the opera.
The length is just a bit long on me (but worn with heels it was fine), and the fabric is so nice and breathable. Really makes you feel super elegant but it's also very comfortable.

Loved the pattern and the design, I am a bit busty and need to be able to move my arms around a lot so the high neck and long sleeve didn't leave too much room for movement. Beautiful dress.

Great dress, many compliments!
The sheer sleeves/neckline on this keep it from feeling dowdy. The ruffles, cuffs, zipper, and liner were all in good shape. The only thing I didn't like about this dress was that due to the seams along the ruffle at your triceps, you can't really raise/reach your arms fully without worrying about busting a seam. So it probably wouldn't be a great choice if you wanted to do a lot of dancing. You'll also need a strapless bra with it since the shoulders are sheer but there's no boning or structure that would make it easy to go bra-less.

Too long and conservative
Nice dress, but too long and conservative. If it's shorter, the print and color would look cute. But with the neckline and almost maxi length on me, it looks too conservative and boring.

Super cute, but that shoulder fit...
Great length and true to size. While I did receive many compliments and loved the maxi length, I have to say that the shoulder fit restricted full range of motion in the arms. If you're not planning to be active or brush your hair after getting dressed, you will be fine!

Pretty dress, not suitable for 3rd trimester
I rented this dress in two sizes for my baby shower. Unfortunately at 32 weeks pregnant this dress did not work, while flowy on the bottom the top just did not sit right. Because I ordered up in sizes the shoulders fit awkwardly and too large and the waist portion under my breasts was way too constrictive. I am not sure why this dress was listed for 1-3 trimesters? Disappointed! If you’re not pregnant or early on, this dress is awesome for the winter/fall.

Did not wear this to my event.
Way too tight across the shoulders and upper arms. And very, very frumpy. It might be okay in a small size on a tall person. But the color was dull and the styling dated. Reminded me of the Gunny Sacks dresses we wore in the 70s.
