Oh my goodness the back!!  I received so many compliments on this dress.  Fit perfect & true to size.  Had to wear sticky cups because I didn't have a bra that would work with the back, but it was totally worth it!!!  

This is the second time I've rented this dress! It was perfect for my sister's baby shower. You can wear it without a bra and was a great fit for a smaller bust. Be prepared to iron this dress before wearing. I got lots of compliments and felt so comfortable! 

I'm a big Kate Spade fan and this dress did not disappoint! Rented for work and was very appropriate. Fit well, very comfortable- not too short. Lots of compliments 

Perfect church dress, very adorable, lots of compliments, a little tight in the chest /neck area

Such a gorgeous dress! I'm normally a pretty true to size 4, and this was pretty tight around my natural waist & arms. Overall it fit lovely! Just make sure you have sticky boobs or something to wear with it because you definitely can't wear a bra with this one. 

I liked the fabric and feel in general. But the waistband was too tight. I do however love the open back. It adds a surprising twist to a straightforward dress. 

Gotta love Kate Spade! This was a perfect summer dress for work especially when I put a black blazer over it. I looked awesome in corporate meetings, and received loads of compliments from my coworker. Dress was true to size, just a bit of a challenge to put on with all the buttons in the back. Perfect spring work dress as well, or for a wedding. 

I loved this dress so much. I wore it for a day of work meetings, and wore a white jean jacket (also from RTR!) to cover up my bra. I sized up just to make sure the waist band wouldn't be too tight, and I had more than enough room. It wrinkles a bit, but honestly less than I expected.

I'm small chested so the fit was perfect. The back makes it impossible to wear a bra so I wore a stick on bra. I loved the look. 

Wore this at the 4th of July party at queen Mary.  Very cool dress, very comfortable and very girly.  I'm surprised it didn't get very wrinkly despite the material being cotton.  Was very tempted to keep this dress.  If you're a cup A , no need to wear a bra.  The material is thick enough to hide what you want to hide.  Excellent dress for summer! 

The front of the dress is average but the back, ooh la la!! I kept it modest for the occasion so I wore something so that too much skin wouldn't be showing in the back of the dress. 

This dress is adorable!! Like all Kate Spade wear I have found, it runs more on the smaller side than big but can always make my true size work. It was a little too revealing to wear for work with the open back but still had lots of fun wearing! 

Got many compliments - back is the highlight

The moment I tried this dress on I felt confident and beautiful. I love the fit, love the fabric, love it all!! 

Wore this to see a pre-professional ballet and it was the perfect balance of casual and sophisticated! Not bra friendly. 

Cute dress but tight on the chest area and arm opening. 

It was tight on my rib cage but fit otherwise 

Loved this dress.  Wore it to our son’s HS graduation.  It was chilly outside so I paired with a navy blazer for the ceremony but took it off and wore just the dress for the post-ceremony party.  

5’7, 175lbs, pear shape mom bod. and the 14 fit like a glove

Fit was a bit snug at the waist button but overall very flattering. This is a great fresh spring/summer dress. With a sweater/jacket it is very conservative for work purposes, without anything on top would be fun for a brunch or happy hour.

I love this dress so much I've rented it twice. It fits perfectly. It seems casual but sophisticated. If I end up renting it a third time, I'm buying it. 

And the buttons are impossible alone to figure out.

Unfortunately this dress was not made for someone with some serious curve factors. I loved the look, but there was no way I was buttoning this dress up in the back. Didn't wear at all.

Lovely back and crisp colors,  fun style, but it's not cut for us who are long waisted and it's difficult if you need to wear a bra as I do. The waist was quite high on me, almost umpire -- but the position  of the darts did not match that.  I think perhaps Kate Spade clothes are made for 'average height' women,  not talls.


fit great.very flattering loved the longer length

Perfect summer work dress. Fabric is thin and cool, you'll need a slip.

Cute, wore with a sweater for work to cover visible bra strap in back. Loved it anyway!

I wore this to a post-wedding brunch in August. It's business in the front and a party in the back. I have a great backless bra that allowed me to take advantage of this fun dress. I felt comfortable and appropriate for the event.

I wore this a few times and every time I stepped out in it I got so many compliments that I'm thinking about buying it. Flattering and fun, yet sophisticated. This dress made me feel confident. 

Excellent fit, comfortable. Will require a sticky bra, but the back is worth it!

Got lots of compliments. Front of dress is conservative, but the back of the dress is open and pretty. 

I rented this dress after loosing 15 lbs so I would have something well fitted for a family vacation and family pictures.  I absolutely loved it!  I was hesitant due to the open back but was really comfortable in it even without a bra (36C and almost never go without).  I wore it for family pictures on the beach and my mother in law asked where I got it because it looked "fabulous," she's very critical so this was super high praise from her.

The back on this dress is everything. I wouldn't suggest it for anyone with a bigger bust.
