Loved, loved, loved this dress.  It was a beautiful dress that was very flattering.  The only issue was being on the shorter side the dress was longer than expected.  It was still gorgeous though.  I received compliments all night long.  It was very accommodating with my larger bust too.  Highly reccomend

Loved this dress.  Yellow isn't for everyone, but if you like that color, go for it.  Just note it runs REALLY large, I usually am an 8, wore a 6, prob could have worn the 4. Love the material, it's thick and not stretchy.  Wore to a summer wedding.

I am relatively small busted but have wide back and I was able to tip comfortably with help from friend. RTR is great!

I thought the dress ran a little large. But I loved the fabric and the color! 

I liked this dress so much, that I ended up buying it. The only problem is I couldn't find it in yellow, so I had to get it in pink. The size 4 was too big, so I ended up buying the size 2 and it fits really well. 

I ended up liking this dress, but when I first tried it on, I wasn't so sure.  The fabric is quite thick...almost like upholstry and the color is darker than it appears in the picture (not quite so lemon-y colored).  My biggest problem, thought, was with the mid-section.  I have a pretty straight body type and this dress made me look thicker in the middle.  However, once I put on a wide belt I really liked the way it looked.
Also, I did not fill out the chest area, so I had to buy an extra padded bra to make it work.

Loved this dress. I'm kind of broad-shouldered, so it was very snug up top but it worked and I got tons of compliments on it. It was just the right length for a wedding and the pockets were a fun detail.

This dress definitely runs big, so go down at least one size.  I usually wear an 8, but wore a size 6 and I still had to wear a padded bra since it was loose in the bust.  That being said,  it's a pretty color and interesting design, so I would recommend renting it.

Everyone asked where I got my dress and I was happy to tell them Rent the Runway! It was a great way for me to have fun (color and one shoulder) with a dress for my friend's wedding without making the commitment to buy it.

As for fit, it does run large. I'm typically and 8/10 and could have gone down to a size 4. The 6 worked but was a bit loose in the bust (of course I'm a size 36A so if you're bustier, you might stick with one size smaller).

Dress was lightweight for a summer wedding and the pockets DIDN'T bulge or give added bulk around the middle (very surprising).

I absolutely LOVE this dress! It is super cute and fit me great! I'm usually a size 8 but that was too big on me so I recommend going a size down. It was perfect for the event I was going to. 

I absolutely loved this dress! It stood out at the wedding without looking like I was trying too hard. I received a ton of compliments on it throughout the night and just wish i could afford to purchase it on my own! 

I would definitely go down a size, I normally wear a 4 and it swallowed me but the 2 fit perfectly.

I would buy this dress in a heart beat, it does run big I am 5'9, 135 lbs, 34/26/37. I ordered the 4 and the 6 and I wore the 4 with plenty of room to spare. It made my waist and rib cage look very tiny, tons of compliments on the color, it was like a ray of sunshine.  Fashion tape would have helped hold the straps in the right place, but I did not get my fit kit with my order.
