I should've ordered a size bigger, after dinner it was a bit snug. But I'm a master a sucking it in for pictures :) I loved the fit and the vibrant purple that really set this dress off!

It's great for any formal occasion. It fits great , hits high enough above the waist to slim. I just loved it! ( So I bought it!)

Love the fit and flare.

I wore a 14W, which fit pretty well. I was worried it was a big baggy in the chest, but I think once I got comfortable in it, the fit was fine. A am super tall (6 feet), and I'm always worried things will be too short for me. I felt this was a perfect cocktail length for me. I definitely recommend it for all the tall ladies out there!

This dress fit fabulously and is more flattering than the pics indicate. It was easy to pack for a wedding overseas, no wrinkles. Love the pockets of course, and the straps in the shoulders to hold my bra meant the open back worked great without my bra showing or having to futz with fashion tape.

It is more purple in person. This dress is a stunning dress, with a great fit. There is zero stretch in the bodice and by midway through the evening, I literally could only take shallow breaths. I want to own this dress for myself, but I would definitely need a size two.

I loved everything about this dress. It was super flattering, showed off what I wanted to and hid what I didn't. It was very comfortable and the color is gorgeous. I got tons of compliments all night. The fabric is heavy, but not hot at all. It felt luxurious. I have a very large chest (38J) and this fit well. Didn't feel constricting at all. Most importantly, I could wear a standard bra with it. It hit right at the knee for me (I'm 5'10). Just perfect all around.

Easily another item I wish I owned. I wore this to work and as such work a black cardigan over it. I received a ton of compliments and felt wonderful in the dress. Between the color, the pockets and the way it fits, this dress is just so fun. My only recommendation would be that bustier ladies may want to order true to size; I read the reviews and ordered a size 10 which would have been completely fine except for that I'm a 36DD, so the girls were pretty squished. That was the one and only downside. Otherwise, if you are fortunate enough to have a reasonable chest you could definitely size down and be very comfortable in this dress.

Perfect work event dress. Just enough sheen to dress it up but the perfect shape for staying professional.

I loved this dress the minute I saw it. The color is darker in person and not shiny as it looks in the RTR photos. I discovered that photographing the dress with a flash gives this appearance, so I had a photo taken outside in natural light to show how it really looks. This dress runs true to size or perhaps runs a little large. The cut is very flattering and a conservative style that any age can wear. It is appropriate for a dressy evening party, theater event, or wedding. Special undergarments are not needed. The color and fabric of the dress is appropriate for a fall or winter event. The fabric has stiffness/body to it and it keeps its shape, i.e., the skirt does not flow/drape as you walk, sit, etc. There is also an attached crinoline to maintain the skirt's shape. I highly recommend this dress.

The fit was perfect for me. I wear 34D in bra size and pear shaped. The color really stood out in a sea of mostly black dresses at the event. Loved the pockets...super convenient for carrying your cell phone out on the dance floor!

This dress has a beautiful flattering appeal to it. The waste was a bit snug but I was wearing this after the holiday season indulging in too many sweets. I like that I didn't need to get any special undergarments as the back goes low but not below the bra strap. We had to travel for an hour and a half in the car to the wedding and then home and then 30 minutes to the reception and it stayed relatively wrinkle free. So thankful for the privilege of wearing this gorgeous dress.

I thought this dress was very flattering for my body type. I don't have much boob (~32DD right now, which is sounds big but isn't) and I have big hips and long legs. It was long enough on my tall frame to be comfortable sitting down but not so long I felt too conservative. I was able to wear a regular bra and didn't need spanx so it was a win all around. I also really liked that it had pockets and that those pockets did not open too easily. There is no stretch to the material at all - it is a somewhat thicker material, very nice feeling. Also, if you are busty I would size up, there wasn't exactly a ton of extra room in the boobal area even for me!

Fit perfectly, could wear a normal bra (there are lingerie straps to hold your bra straps in place on th dress straps). Tons of compliments. Wore for our company holiday party.

I wore this to my fiancee's company Christmas party, so I needed something fancy and fun yet conservative. I was very happy with this dress. It gave me a nice little waist and fit well across the chest. One of the best parts was that I was able to wear a normal bra with it. The color is even better in person and the fabric is thick and luxurious. I didn't want to take it off! I got compliments all night long, from the CEO of the company to the singer in the band. I'd definitely recommend this dress for a festive party or wedding.

The dress fit true to size. I am a "G" cup and the top was not snug. The dress was comfortable, eye catching, and beautiful.

The color is darker in person than it looks on the RTR website, but still a gorgeous deep violet. I got so many compliments on the dress. I loved that I could carry my lipstick, beauty blotters, and cell phone in the pockets (no evening clutch needed). Very comfortable fabric and forgiving silhouette that does not require any type of Spanx or restrictive underthings. It was also very flattering and created more of a waist line than I have naturally, giving me a more hourglass look. I was so happy with my choice! This was perfect for an outdoor fall wedding, but would be perfect for the Holidays as well.

This dress is just a bit fancy for everyday. The skirt has a little petticoat and so it holds a cute stiff shape. Sometimes I don't even fit into designers' 14 if they run small (depressing), but this was huge on me. I definitely could have gone down a size.

Great fit... I am large up top and this dress covered me up quite nicely... This dress was sent to me by rtr last minute because my first choice did not fit ... Amazing service

Loved this for the comfortable fit (normal bra and undies) combined with unique colours and full skirt. Runs true to size with a little room to spare. It really stood out at a holiday party where everyone was in red, black, or metallic, but is equally recommend it for a cocktail attire wedding in the cooler months or a very dressy work event. I think the fabric is a bit heavy for anything in the summer. Paired with sparkly gold kitten heels.

Easy to wear - great color!

Nice fabric but sometimes I just get tired of polyester. Really fun design and lines. Picture leaves something to be desired for sure...

I rented this for a friend's wedding in October - and I LOVED it! I love the color and style - I hated to send it back. The fabric weight was perfect for an evening fall wedding. (Photo includes my sister who rented a Badgley Mischika for the wedding.) At that point, I was still working off weight from my post-pregnancy, so I couldn't fit into the 10 - but my back-up size 12 was perfect! (It was a little roomy through the natural waist, but the hips and bust were perfect!)

I usually wear a 6-8, but after reading the reviews thought I should try a 4, and a 2 for back up. I'm flat chested I was concerned it would look big even with a push-up bra on. (it did not, it was just right with a push-up ) The waistline at the dress falls at natural waistline, maybe even higher like an empire wasted dress. Because of this, the dress is great for hiding belly. I could of worn the 2, but decided with the 4 so I would feel comfortable if I ate a big dinner:) Also, it was nice to have pockets in the dress, I got many compliments, and the violet color was different than everyone else! I felt awesome, and had a great night

Very heavy material. Fit was tight around rib cage but loose in top. Would be good for large breast. It came a bit wrinkled but used steam from my iron and it came out.

Rented his to take my clinical boards in, this is probably the 3-4th Theia dress I've rented and the fit and designer work well for me: often small with flare skirts and pockets. Another great rental!

Incredibly flattering shape, and I loved the volume in the skirt, but somehow this dress ran much larger than I was expecting. Would have been perfect a size (or maybe even two?) down.

This dress was huge. I loved the back and the pockets. If I had sized down it would have looked great. Loved the color. Fine for a regular bra.

This dress looks so "timeless" on, I felt like Audrey Hepburn all night! Love the cut & color scheme and how well it maintains its shape, even after a night of dancing! The shiny material is beautiful & really holds you in. I didn't have to wear a bra! (I'm a C-cup for reference) Definitely true-to-size though is a little tight in the arm-holes, since the material comes up high on the sides. And also runs longer than id like.. But still a fantastic dress. Great for tall, long-&-lean body types

I wore this dress to a fall wedding that required cocktail attire. The fabric is thick, so I wouldn't recommend it for a summer wedding. The size 10 was very snug through my rib cage area, but I carry extra weight through my torso, so I am not overly surprised. I have had four children, and because of where the skirt started, it did great covering my lower stomach, a.ka., the baby pooch. I had tried the size 12 on, which fit great through the torso, but was absolutely huge in the shoulders. If I owned this dress, I would have to have the shoulders drawn and taken up several inches. It seems that the dress is made for a person who has a long torso. Overall, the dress was beautiful and very well made. I received many compliments throughout the evening. I would rent it again.

the dress fit great and I received lots of compliments. I did need to wear a strapless bra. The lower half of the dress was very full.

I have a large chest and it fit perfectly!

The dress was lovely, the fit and fabric were fantastic. It runs a bit big - I bought it in my usual size knowing this because I need the extra space in the bust.

This dress was lovely. It fit great and had pockets!

Really pretty colors in the dress and has pockets

I received so many compliments and it was true to size

I wore this for our wedding rehearsal and welcome party. It was perfect - great fit, comfortable, flattering and who doesn't love pockets?! I wanted to keep it but the price tag was a little more than I could justify. But I'll be renting it again for sure!

The color was amazing and the fabric was heavier which was nice for a winter wedding

After reading other reviews, I sized down to a 2 from my usual 4 and I'm glad I did. It fit perfectly.

Beautiful dress with little stress. Wear your normal bra and any underwear. Very flattering and forgiving. Plus pockets! Great color too.
