glam, structured, perfect

If I had to pick, I'd say it runs a tad big, but overall a perfect black tie gown.

Loooved this

This is probably one of my favorite dresses I've ever worn. The color was beautiful, and it felt dramatic without being too much. I received tons of compliments. I wish I could have kept it!

Definitely a contender for my event

This was my favorite out of a few options I tried on and I’m still deciding if I will wear it to the ball. I thought it was flattering and liked the structure

Amazing!

This dress is gorgeous I should’ve bought it! I’m a petite 5’2 so with 4inch heels it hung like a gown, which was perfect for a wedding. I ordered the XS and it was snug but comfortable around the hips/butt, and just a touch loose around my bust (I’m a 34B) but stayed up with a padded strapless bra. The side sash added just the right amount of glamour, you’ll just have to remember not to step on it…. The color was amazing for a spring affair, I received so many compliments!

Backup Dress Too large

My back up dress didn’t work out. Not the best picture of me in the dress but the size large was too big in the chest section and I’m heavy chested. I would of had to pull the dress up all night long. However the large did fit just fine in the tummy section so I feel like the medium would of been fine in the chest area and too tight in the midsection. The material of this dress is so beautiful in person. Disappointed I couldn’t wear but someone with the right fit would look stunning in this dress.

Beautiful blue dress, perfect for a formal affair!

Wore this as a bridesmaid for a wedding. Definitely runs small, I was originally planning to order a large but was convinced to switch my backup size to a small, so glad I did because the S is what I ended up wearing. Also this dress is very long, perfect for me as a tall person but the sash might drag on the ground if you're shorter. Color is definitely more blue than the teal shown in the picture.

Simply stunning and chic

This was my first time using RTR, so I was a bit nervous because my event was out of town. To my surprise my gown came a day early and it was the perfect fit (size M). I'm a shorty with some curves 5"2, 154lbs, 34C. The gown has some stretch to it and very forgiving in the mid section. I did not have to wear a push up bra because the gown had a built in bra. I received a ton of compliments at the Gala. The gown gave me old Hollywood glam. Basically I loved this gown

Showstopper in the best of ways!

The color is a beautiful teal and very complimentary my skin tone. The only con is the top half, the strapless part was a little big. In all fairness my top half is just a touch smaller than the rest of me which the M fit perfectly. Fitted from the abdomen down through the hip, which I like. It accentuates your shoulders, clavicle, waistline and curves perfectly (See the pictures) Modest and classy at the same time.

Like a glove

Most flattering dress ever! At first I didn’t think I was going to wear it because it fit so tight, I thought I’d tear it. but then I realized that the fabric was stretchy and the more I wore it the more confidence I had with the design and movement in it. My only complaint with the dress was that the zipper in the back kept digging into my skin. I ended up with a welt from it by the end of the night. Also, the dress fabric kept twisting so that the zipper in the back was off center, so I had to readjust it every once and awhile to recenter the zipper line down the middle of my back. Other that that, the dress was absolutely flattering. I never felt so glamorous before, especially in such a tight dress where I usually am self conscious of my curves.

Black Tie Mexico Wedding Dress

Wore this to a black tie wedding in Mexico and loved it. At first I was concerned that the material might look a bit tacky, but it’s definitely prettier in person. The dress has some stretch to it as well so it was comfy + easy to move/dance in. The color gave mermaid vibes and was fun to wear!

I wore this to a black tie wedding and it was perfect!

I am usually a US 6, 8 or 10 depending and could have worn either the M or the L. I wore the M because it snatched my waist a little more but both would have been perfectly fine. I am a 32DDD bust and it fit great! I absolutely LOVED this dress. So elegant. Would def reccommend!

Elegant for a black tie event

Wore this for a wedding and I got so many compliments. I sized down one to have a tighter fit and loved it, was still comfortable (not too tight). Could have easily done a small tho too, so I’d say it’s TTS

this dress worked out great! It was a TINY bit big, but if it were tighter it would've looked better but been less comfortable so, trade-offs ya know.

Compliment Galore

This dress fit like a glove. Built in cups so you don’t have to worry about a bra. The length was fine for my 5 inch pumps. I’m typically between sizes 4-6 bc of my hips, but the material & lining was stretchy enough to dance and move around comfortably. I received so many compliments and would recommend it!

Beautiful dress!

This dress is gorgeous! The color is so pretty in person and the extra train on the side adds something unique (just be careful others don’t step on it). I opted for the XS since that’s the only size they had available. It was a little tight to get on at the hips (I usually wear a size 25 in jeans). But the bust was very loose (34C). Usually I have the opposite problem where the XS will be too tight up top. I was pulling it up all night but I still loved the dress. Definitely opt for double sided tape to keep everything in place!

Absolutely stunning and so flattering

Gorgeous gown that looks much better in person than in the picture, honestly. It as more of a bluish shade than the teal pictured, which I liked more. It is on the tight side of the size - size 4, my usual size, fit me SNUGLY. But wow, this is one flattering dress that accentuates your curves. The side flowing panel gives it an old fashioned Hollywood glamor and the slim fit reminds me of Marilyn Monroe. I felt gorgeous in this and received compliments all night.

Stunning dress in a beautiful color!!

I wore this for a black tie benefit for work. The shade of blue is absolutely gorgeous, the fabric hugged my body in all the right ways, and I got a ton of compliments! The L fit me really well. Even though the dress had built-in cups, I wore a strapless bra anyway to help me fill it out a little.
