Great dress
I loved the drapey fit. Vibrant red. Heavy and lined.

RENT THIS DRESS!
If I could afford it, this dress would still be hanging in my closet. Alas... Anyway, it is stunning. The color, the drape, the fabric. It's also tremendously comfortable. I got so many compliments at the party I attended — the photographer wouldn't stop taking photos of me!

Classic color, cut with an edge
PROS: Wearing this dress was a dream. I stood taller, felt stronger, and had a load of confidence. The weight and drape are phenomenal. Because it's a midi dress and NOT a fitted cut, it's elegant and forgiving. The color conveyed power. The overall feel was conservative edge, if that's a thing. CONS: I happened to love the midi length and the looser cut, but if you're looking for fitted, this dress isn't for you.

Well made, better belted
This is a very well made beautifully cut dress. But if you have a hip or a butt, I think wearing it completely straight with no belt doesn't really work. So I belted it. The color is amazing

Neckline feels like its choking me!
Fabric is heavy and feels expensive but neckline is cut too high and hurts.

I wasn't even able to wear it.
I couldn't even get the dress on...it was tight on my hips and my arms didn't fit at all.

The color is really rich and wonderful.
This dress has really clean lines but has great architectural details (sloped shoulders, high neck, etc.).

Lovely belted
Great dress, thick fabric with good lining. The only con is that the neckline choked me all day.

Tailored, Elegant, and a bit Unforgiving
The construction and the hand of this piece were lovely and as one would expect from a designer dress. It was a bit tight across the shoulders, making it hard to get on solo, but I got there. The only problem was that something about the lining as it attached to where there was a slit in the side made it pull inward. This made the corner of the dress fold in on itself. I was traveling for work when I discovered it and while I was able to resolve it about 90% be releasing a few stitches on the hem and steaming it, it never fully laid flat. Not sure what the cause was but just be warned. Otherwise I loved it.

Beautiful and elegant
Fits beautifully with a nice drape. Feels substantial and also very forgiving cut. The neck is quite high and there is no stretch - seated at the opera, I could feel it cutting into my throat a bit. Sort of unpleasant but bearable. Looks great with statement necklace.

Runs large
I was hoping I would fit in nicely, but the sizing didn't workout for maternity look. It may be perfect if you are not pregnant though. The sleeves are excessively large and it's the style but it may not be for everyone.

Couldn't even get my arms in it
I don't vanity size. One of the things i like about RTR is that you're not married to sizes because you don't have to buy anything. But I couldn't even get my arms in a size 10. All I can say is the color was vibrant and make sure you size at least 2 up. What a waste of time.

Beautiful color, but missed the mark
Other reviewers were right to observe that the high neckline does choke a little. I think this one is better for events than all day wear. Wrinkles a lot when you sit too. Gorgeous color, though. And I did get compliments.
