The size I needed wasn't available, so I went with this larger size. It was ok, but the straps slipped off some and it was too roomy for me in the bust. :-)

A great, comfy dress that I got so many compliments on and felt super confident in! Sized down to a Small and it fit like a glove.

This is the second time I’ve ordered this dress. SO comfortable and flattering. Made me feel confident — and dresses are not my thing. Highly recommend!!

 It runs big IMO. I’m 60/40 and L/M depending on the structure. But there’s a lot of stretch so M fit best. 

Only issue is that the straps were loose despite fitting well everywhere else. I’m a D-DD and have broad shoulders so this is not typically my issue. A safety pin or two solved the problem 👌🏼. In hindsight, I may have been able to do a small. 

This dress was perfect to chaperone my daughters 8th grade formal. I’m big on top and the dress had room to comfortably fit the girls.  The only issue I had was the straps kept falling off since they can’t be adjusted. 

Love the square neck and the slit. The fabric is thick and stretches and hugged me in all the right places. Thinking about buying this dress because it’s just perfect. 

Casual black dress - rented for a welcome drinks wedding event but didn’t end up wearing. The straps were just a bit too long and I couldn’t fill out the top of the dress comfortably. I would say size down for this one. Length is nice though and slit is tasteful 

I have a small waist but large hips so the dress felt like it keep riding up, I was constantly pulling it down. The arm straps are also not adjustable. They keep falling down the entire night which was frustrating as well. I think this dress would be a better fit for a different body type, unfortunately mine was not it. 

I liked this dress! It was simple and flattering. The straps were a bit long on me, but manageable. Soft medium-weight material.

Straps are a little long when I sat down. 

Wore to a semi formal barn wedding. 5’5” 145 pounds. Large was way too big. Medium fit well on the top but was a little tight in the hip area. I did wear the medium. Straps fell down a lot but overall I was happy with the dress!

The straps definitely fell off and on like everyone said in reviews but still felt great! Thick material and very flattering! Classy slit height!

I ordered this dress as an add-on to 2 other potential options for a June evening wedding. Thank god I added it to my order because it looked so much better than the other 2 I originally picked. It's really comfortable & won't wrinkle. It's a basic black dress design, but if I could find it anywhere online, I would buy it to wear again. It's super easy to dress up or down. Highly recommend:)

Great for a wedding rehearsal dinner! I am 5'11" and it was a perfect length. 

The medium fit perfectly except for the straps. I normally wear a 6 and a S/M top. The straps slipped off a few times but nothing too bad!

Great length. Very comfortable with the perfect amount of stretch. I'm 5'4", size 0-2 typically 

I picked this dress not thinking it would be anything special and it completely blew me away! Hugged my body so perfectly, and the cinched waist was so flattering for my figure. Bonus points that I could wear a normal bra underneath it. Easy and so many compliments!


I honestly loved this dress. It was perfect for the hot Texas wedding we attended. It felt breathable, and moveable but also form fitting. The straps did fall down just a tad when you sat but it was okay when standing. It's the perfect simple cocktail dress that you can dress up with a shall or shoes - received lots of compliments on the dress. The dress fits true to size, I am wearing an XS. 

The material used for this dress was nice and thick and even though the straps were a bit long to start, after I altered them the top was supportive enough that I could wear this dress without a bra (at a Southern August wedding every layer counts lol). The only thing I will say is that as the night went on the dress got looser and looser which can be seen as a plus if you’re worried about post-dinner bloat, but if you want a snug fit all throughout the night, consider ordering a size down. 
Unrelated pro tip for other thick-thighed ladies- if you use some deodorant where your legs usually rub together it really helps eliminate that painful chafing! I can’t believe I didn’t know this until recently but it really helped me enjoy wearing a dress pain free and also helped the dress to stay in place as I moved and walked around. Overall, love this dress and would recommend !!

Loved this dress and got a lot of compliments on it! I wanted to wear a small, but that size wasn't available. The medium was a little big for me. I think a small would have been perfect. Would definitely wear again! 

Absolutely LOVED this dress! I have a wide set bust and was a little worried about the neckline but it looked amazing! The length was very flattering on my petite frame and the length of the slit felt daring and sexy in a good way. It’s thick but I did end up wearing shape wear under it. I definitely should have sized down as well, the top of the dress was much bigger than I expected but has enough stretch on the bottom to be fine in a smaller size. I’d rent it again and again and again! 

Loved it. The material is stretchy and hid my stomach well. It was very flattering

Overall the dress was  flattering! The straps fell down a few times over the course of event but otherwise the fit was great. The zipper was quite difficult to move on both this dress and my back up size, but eventually we got it unzipped so I could put the dress on. 

 six months postpartum. initially wore a different RTR style, was so uncomfy I had my bff run this dress to the church so I could change before the recept. This dress  turned my night around. Felt like a million dollars and strutted that post baby bod around w/pride. I will be buying this.

I wore this for a rehearsal dinner and received tons of compliments. I gave 4 stars because the straps were too big, but I used clothing tape to get them to stay up and it was fine. Loved this dress, it was a hit! I'm 5'1" 148lbs, I wore a size medium in this dress. 

This dress was really comfortable. The slit was not too high but definitely added some style! I wore a strapless bra, which was good because the straps on the dress were a bit loose and did fall down. But overall a great dress!

Fit was very comfortable, stretchy material that was easy to dance in!

Nice Little Black Dress! I'm 5'4", 127lbs, 32C and the small fit well, shoulder straps were a little loose on me.

Very comfortable dress. Only complaint is that the straps kept falling down. Otherwise- highly recommend!

Wore this to my best friend's rehearsal dinner - it is classy, a little sexy, and flattering! Easy to wear and accessorize. The material is stretchy and light weight. Straps were a little big/long on me so they fell off part of the night but it didn't bother me enough to pin them.
