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

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!

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 

This dress fits like a glove and shows your form . It is incredibly comfortable and I was even able to dance the night away. 

Snagged this shimmery number for a 1920's celebration of music, honoring the music of Gershwin too!  The dress was a hit!

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! 

Beautiful fit. Got many compliments. Perfect for a formal affair

 Got a lot of compliments on this dress, walkable and danceable🙂

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. 

Great fit! Made the best dressed list for sure!

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.

The dress fits comfortably material is good quality and looks great on. 

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 

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.

Wore it for a black tie wedding and it was stunning! 

TTS, and so comfortable and elegant. A little roomy in the chest area too! Recommend for a black tie fall or winter wedding! 

Wore this to a rooftop formal wedding in Brooklyn. Many compliments! Got a necklace off Poshmark 

Beautiful color and design. Fits perfect.

This dress was very comfortable! Received tons of compliments and the color is stunning. Since I’m short, I tied the long flowing fabric in a knot so it didn’t drag, worked perfectly! 

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. 

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 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! 

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. 

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! 

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! 

It was a little big in the bust so I could’ve sized down to a small but dress was a showstopper

Wore this to a black tie garden event and it was the perfect combination of formal but not to much. Loved it! 

Sophisticated but still a young look. Was the perfect length on me while wearing 3 inch heels. 

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. 

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. 

6 months post partum and felt so comfy in this dress!  Pre baby would have prob chosen a small but the medium gave the the extra room that I needed.  

Love this dress and the material so much. A tiny bit big in the bust but stayed pretty much in place all night. Apparently I wasn’t the only one who loved as there was another guest in the same gown lol. 

I was really happy with this dress! Unfortunately tho even with my bigger chest it fell down every once in a while. The drape dragged the floor a tiny bit, didn’t bother me too much and I could’ve worn taller heels. Love it overall - steamed it but wrinkled easy 

I sized up and thankful that I did. It was extremely tight on my chest, but that is often the case. I got so many compliments! I’m short so when I was dancing I had to hold the bottom and the side thing too a little annoying but I got used to it. 

I ordered this dress for a wedding. The color, sheen of the fabric and cut is gorgeous. I’m more pear-shaped and felt it was too snug across my hips. There was no XL or I would have ordered this size. It’s a great dress if you’re well endowed too. I did not end up wearing it.

Super flattering black tie optional. Not great if you have a large chest, very very form fitting 

The color of this dress is even better in person. Really liked it, but felt like the lines of the dress didn’t photograph as well. Also I’m a solid c cup and felt like I was still pulling up the dress the whole night. 

Loved this dress but the top of it was huge. 

This definitely runs large in the bust like other reviewers said. I opted to squeeze into the smaller size so the top wasn't quite so big. Even with heels the train part still touched the ground so I had to pin that part up so it didn't get stepped on. The one thing I'll note is that there was really no airflow in this dress so it was HOT. Just to keep in mind if you plan on spending all night on the dance floor like I did. :)

stunning dress, the color is amazing but I have a small bust so the top was too big. the built in bra is pretty large! i still recommend though, wore it all night! 
then on the XS the top fit great, but the bottom was too small. Not the best dress for lower body curves :) 

This dress was perfect for a Mardi Gras ball! It is definitely more blue than green as it appears on the model but overall great color! The bust was a little big even for me but I didn’t mind adjusting it every once in a while. The waist of it is not too tight and has a little stretch!
