I love the sheen of the fabric. It is nice and heavy - makes it a great option for any family gathering or religious event that requires you to be more covered up. I adore the pockets on this dress and felt very comfortable posing in it for photos! I am about 5'4 and the dress hits a few inches above the ankle. The only thing to keep in mind is that if you have a wider ribcage, you may want to go one size up. It wasn't really an issue for me personally.

This dress fit like a glove. I am 63 years old, 5'7" , 34B, and weigh 120lbs. I wore it for my outdoor wedding celebration. Paired it with silver shoes and pink Kate Spade earrings. Loved wearing it!

This dress was so lovely and feminine, the pockets were my favorite part of the dress. The fabric was thicker than I envisioned but it worked perfectly for a cold wedding evening. I got so many compliments and everyone loved the color.

The dress was perfect for the event. And yes, great to have pockets! It is stylish yet appropriately conservative for the occasion.

The Fit was Great! the Color was Awesome. The event was a Church Event called "Womens' Day" where we all had to wear Pink Suits.. well, since i didn't see one on this site nor couldn't find one, this dress caught my eye. I received it 2 months in advance. Once i put it on, i was a bit afraid of what people would say being that it wasn't completely Pink, and how it Was Made. (the style), but being 'different' IS 'my style' .. always, i stepped out of the room and made the grand entrance, and woo! I took heads! Got compliments from everyone! Ministers, Evangelist, Youngsters, Lay-Members, as well as Pastors! I felt soo Great, and Expensive! I thank RTRWay for helping to achieve the look that I needed as well as feel good about myself. (i gained a few pounds since try-on day), but the fit was still good. For my height as well as my weight. I recommend you to try this dress you will NOT be disappointed. The pictures: First -(3)- are of me within my home. I tried to give you the look in different angels, colors as well as ways.. Middle - of me in Church following the Service .. Final - me and the way I wore it as well as with what i wore it with. #ootd Do hope the looks will inspire you to try it as well! GBU until my Next Review! FYI: It HAS POCKETS! (forgot that minor detail.) but YOU don't forget!

Would only recommend if you are tall.

I felt like a princess! The fabric is very luxurious and thick - but not too warm for a hot day (80 degrees). I got so many compliments on this dress. Wore it with the suggested Lulu Frost earrings and silver strappy shoes. The dress fit perfectly in a size 10 (my normal size). This really is a unique and special dress.

Top seemed to run small, a larger bust may have difficulty zipping the top. The background color to the dress is blue, not brown like the pictures. A beautiful fit and fun dress with full skirt, I received lots of compliments ;)

Fits great except a little small in the ribcage area so I'd recommend ordering up a size or at least order up on your back-up size.

The color and pattern of this Cynthia Rowley dress was stunning! Flattering fit! The bodice is extremely fitted like described by other users. I normally wear a size 6 in similarly made dresses. I ordered up a size & it fit perfectly. I felt like a million bucks and received MANY compliments.

I loved this dress. The event was somewhere between cocktail and formal and this tea length dress was the perfect solution. I'm only 5'2" so it was a little long on me, but the fit everywhere else was perfect and you can never go wrong with a dress with pockets.

This dress fit well, but I'm glad I read reviews and sized up! The waist was quite tight, but I had no issues with the larger size being too large even on my petite shoulders. I'm usually between a 6 and an 8, and I wore a 10 in this dress. That said, it was flowy and comfortable, even chasing my pre-school and toddler-aged daughters who were flower girls in the wedding I wore it to. Pretty spring or summer wedding guest dress!

Fabric is heavy but not hot- wore to an outdoor wedding in July and was comfortable! Tight around bodice with flared skirt is flattering - not a lot of stretch but fit snugly.

The fit was true. The zipper was an issue for a moment. The lining was nice.

Nice fit, a little tight in the waist and bust, so I guess the next size would have been good too.

I rented this for my daughter to wear to her graduation and dinner. She looked amazing in it and she loved the compliments!

Gorgeous print and colors. Thick material. Accentuates your waist. Dress was LONGER on me than shown in model, but works with right shoes. No stretch in the arm holes.

Loved this dress and got ton of compliments on it. It is a bit snug in the chest area and it's longer than tea length but it looked great on!

It fit perfectly! The dress is made from a heavy brocade fabric, and it has excellent construction. I received many compliments on it!

This dress for beautifully on my best friend! As a 5'4" curvy girl with size 2 busy and size unknown tush we ordered a size 4 and 8 as back up. She did wear the 8 as it was just more comfortable to move around in; after all she spent most of the day chasing her toddler. Needless to say she still won best dressed ! The dress material is flowy enough to move freely but stricter enough that she still looked great at the end of the day when then photo was taken! Rent it!

This 41 year old mom felt beautiful and carefree! My first rtr, I chose a style that I could fit to one area. This empire waist was easy to fit to my bust. Longer than I anticipated, this would be even more beautiful on a taller woman. I'm 5'6", 150 lbs, leaf shaped and the 8 worked for me.

I wore this dress for a funeral, yes, funeral. Our grandma request was no black, happy colors and is march so the whole family wore spring colors... Well, I received many compliments, weird in a funeral. The dress it's absolutely beautiful, was a tea length, I wore a 100mm heels rose beige and was perfect. No bra needed, very think fabric and best things. The lining is light gray. I usually wear 2, but the zipper didn't close, runs small.4 perfect.

Pros - beautiful dress, lots of compliments, not too heavy. Cons - knowing my petite size (I am 5' 4" and a size 14) I was worried full length gowns would run too long. This appears below the knee on the model, however it went mid-calf on me. Not too big of a complaint, but would love to see more petite sizes as an option.

I rented this for a wedding. I loved this dress. Based on reviews I ordered a size up and it fit perfectly! I got so many compliments and I really hated to send it back

I loved this dress! I wore it to a wedding and received tons and tons of compliments! With that being said, Size Up!! Especially if you have a larger chest! I saw reviews saying this so I did and was very glad! The bottom of this dress is very poufy- which I loved! I am on the shorter side so this dress was a little longer on me then I had originally expected but I didn't mind! And the pockets were an added pleasure! Overall, this was a wonderful dress!!

This is a GREAT dress! I wore it for a theater's annual gala. I'm typically a size 10 but took a 12 in this. The top is very fitted. The fabric is gorgeous - I got a lot of compliments! Also, it has pockets which is an automatic win in my book. The skirt is lined and very full. I'm 5'10" so the length was perfect on me. Because I'm tall I often worry about the waist of dresses hitting me awkwardly but it was fine on this. I highly recommend this dress!

Someone told me they "loved it so much they wanted to make a curtain out of it". ;) Thick sturdy material. I am tiniest on top and the six fit my chest and waist perfectly. If it is at all baggy on the top it won't look right since the waist is so pouffy. I felt very elegant.

Beautiful brocade pattern on the dress. Perfect for a Pakistani wedding. Dress is modest. Skirt is a little too poufy, because fabric is stiff. Made my butt look bigger that it is, but that's ok.

This dress was amazing. I felt like a princess in it. It is a very classy dress. It does run small, but I ordered one size up and it fit me like a glove. I love that it had pockets and the fabric was just beautiful. It does have a bit of puff at the bottom, but it didn't accentuate my hips in a negative way. The one thing that you can't see from the picture is that it is LONG. I am 5'8" and it hit me about halfway down my calves. Not a huge problem, but it would have looked weird if I didn't wear heels.

This dress was fantastic for an outdoor spring wedding. The colors are gorgeous with a slight sheen. The dress has pockets (a huge plus!) and is a slightly thicker material, so you don't have to worry about undergarments showing (I wore a normal bra with this dress). It does fit slightly small, so consider that when picking your sizes. I'm 5'5" and it came to my lower calf, but it still looked great. I'm so glad I rented this one!

The 6 fit like a glove. It is very fitted in the waist and rib cage. Overall, the dress is so comfortable, and it made me feel like a princess. The length in my photo looks long, but it's kind of the angle of the photo. It went to about my mid-calf.

The dress fit perfectly, I have a large bust, a high waist and this fit like a glove!

After reading the other reviews I was worried that the rib cage area would be too tight. But to my surprise it was not and the dress fit great. I had a little trouble getting the zipper up in a certain area but that seems to be the case with most of my dresses that are this style.

I ordered an 8 and 10, as both sometimes fit and the 8 was definitely too small, while the 10 was a perfect fit (thank God for two sizes). I also have wider shoulders/back, so the 10 was perfect. The length was perfect as it wasn't floor length or above the knee - perfect for a formal wedding. The material is heavier than I thought, but make the way it laid even better and structured, but worked great to dance in! I was sad to send it back!

I love this dress! Per reviews from other wearers I went up to a size 6 (normally I wear a 4). It was perfect! I paired it with nude heals and some amazing earrings and got so many compliments. I love dancing and the length was perfect, on the models it looks like it hits just below the knee, for me it was about mid-calf. I would highly recommend this dress. The colors were amazing- orange/coral/pink with a grayish undertone.

I am a Fundraising Events Manager and I wore this dress for a gala. It was the perfect combination of elegant and simplistic - and the pockets were an added bonus.

Fits tight in the rib cage. I am a 34B. I ended up wearing no bra so it wasn't as tight! Long, big dress. Definitely helped that I am tall!

True to size and you can wear a traditional bra. As a 36D I always love when I can wear my usual bra. I received TONS of compliments both at the wedding and from friends who saw pictures. Flattering, feminine, comfortable and so easy to dance in. I attended an elegant out door wedding and this dress was perfect for it. Would rent it again in a heart beat.

The dress was incredible. It has a beautiful sheen that doesn't really come across in the pictures. Based on reviews I ordered a size up as a back up, which is what I ended up wearing as I have a larger chest. It was super comfortable and perfect for a late August wedding in RI (fortunately there was no humidity), but I could see it being hot on a warmer day. Multiple people told me I need to own it and shouldn't return it! The rental experience was easy; the only issue was UPS didn't leave the package (even though no signature is required), so I had to pick it up at the warehouse.

Hands down, my favorite rental! I have never received so many compliments! This dress was comfortable, (hello pockets), and stylish. i honestly can't say enough! I rented the 8 and 10 and the 8 was a perfect fit. I cannot recommend this dress enough!
