Other reviews gave this dress a bad rep... but it's adorable
Based on the other reviews I was super skeptical.. but I love this brand so I gave it a shot... and it was so cute! I'm 5,9 so it was a little short but still appropriate for work. Be aware it is a more structured canvas material. Scallop detailing makes the look.

Great LBD, didn't work for me
This dress was a little tight around my stomach so I sadly never wore it. Maybe I'll try renting again a size up because this was a beautiful dress in a great, thick material.

Great black dress.
Fitted dress, slight flare at the bottom and at the bust layer. The material has some stretch to it as well. It was comfortable, but thick - something to think about for summer weddings.

Cute dress, but it is more casual than I expected
First of all, Rebecca Taylor always runs small so I recommend sizing up. I did like this dress, but I was surprised to see that it's somewhat of a denim fabric used for the dress. I wasn't expecting that, but that's not to say it didn't work for a day at the office! I just dressed it up by adding a Chanel pearl necklace.

Love the scallop trim
I read that it runs small so I sized up. The material is stiff but I like the scallop trim 🖤

Stiff cotton fabric
Cute cut but the material was really stiff and I think it didn't look nice enough to wear to work, so I didn't end up wearing it. Runs true to size, which is smaller than other Rebecca Taylor dresses. I often size down to a 2 in this brand but my normal size 4 fit fine.

Great LBD for desk to dinner
I've seen some reviews referring to this dress as "stiff". I think the more accurate description is structured. I found it to be very slimming and flattering. Sleek but not too sexy for work. I'm 5'9 and did not find it too short for work. Recommend sizing up as the fabric will not hang/drape well if you're curvy.

Wore the dress with sparkly cowgirl boots for a welcome fiesta for a wedding. Perfect!
Fit like a glove! Looks great on. The zipper was a bit stiff going up, but once you got the right angle, it zipped right up. Would wear again in a heartbeat.

The dress is chic and simple but is the perfect work dress
It fits true to size and is the perfect length (I am 5'5) but the zipper is very finicky. It was difficult to unzip and difficult to get on by myself. I managed but it has definitely been worn in.

Cute dress that can be dressed up or down
Really flattering fit. I am 5’7 and it was short on me. It was hard to bend over and not be self conscious so I chose not to wear to work. The waist is nipped in a little so the dress makes you look tiny in the middle. The material is canvas-like, so it shows dirt easily.

It was for work. I gained a few pounds and this is a great way to get by while I'm losing weight.
It's different than I thought by the picture but nice.

Pretty Dress for Work or Weekend
Overall, this is a pretty dress that fits true to size. The only top fits perfectly, but the skirt section has no stretch, so if you have fuller hips, butt or belly, the proportions may not be perfect compared with the top.

I'm regularly a 12 these days, and this 12 was both short and skin tight. Cute idea but I'd need to size up.

A little shorter than I expected. Also the dresses material is very sensitive and gets dirty extremely easily- wouldn't recommend although the silhouette is flattering.

I ordered this dress for a wedding and ended up not wearing it because it was way too small (I ordered a size up and it was still too small) and the material was terrible. The fabric has absolutely no give. Would've been cute if it fit.
