I always travel in a dress, it's comfy and no metal on jeans to get me checked in security. This dress was heaven to wear, I felt good, looked good and had people stopping me in the airport to ask me where I got it. Yes, it's long, so wear heels or ruche up in the middle and it fixes the problem and still looks great. It holds in the bumps while accentuating the curves. I also wore it to dinner while at dinner. It's great for day with sandals or flip flops or night with wedges. A winner dress!

I just entered my 3rd trimester and rented this for dinner in the Florida keys. It's stretchy cotton so worked with my bump,  but of course would be cute and flattering formally. Slightly long but you can hike it up because of the rouching if you won't want to wear heels

It was a tad tight around armpits and gave me a red line at end of night. Super flattering when your stomach is the problem area. Length worked as long as I had on 2 inch sandals. The slit up the side is sexy. Wore a regular bra with one of those snaps that pulls in and holds the straps from showing. Loved this dress 

The pattern ended up looking different than the online photos. It was more bold in the details an patterns which was cool. This dress is made of a stretchy fabric and the tummy wasn't the most flattering for me personally but it was still very easy to wear. I liked the switch back details on the stomach but I couldn't wonder if it drew extra attention to midsection area.

This dress wasn't most flattering, the ruched material made is seem lopsided and not in the right places. Someone actually came over to me to pull a part of the dress down not realizing it was part of the design. Also I needed to wear heels and would have preferred it to be a little shorter, I'm not short. Material was comfy though, heavier than I expected

True to size and the length was perfect on my 5'11" frame. The ruching hid my imperfections well and the material was super soft and pretty breathable despite its weight. Definitely a quality garment perfect for every day. Pattern is super unique so it's a nice alternative and pairs well w/ flips or tennies. 

I worked this dress a few times, including on a couple long haul flights for vacation. It was super comfortable, but I thought the fabric folds that run up the middle of the front and back of the dress puckered weirdly. 
I think this dress would work better on someone whose curvier than I am or possibly someone pregnant, so the folds are smoothed out a bit. 
The dress is very long, so break out the tall shoes if you're shorter than I am, or rejoice if you're taller, since this hit the ground on me with flat shoes. 

Cute dress but it was soooo long! I'm 5'4" and would have had to wear 4 inch wedges or more for it not to drag on the ground. I wanted to wear it with flip flops so ended up scrunching the material up around my waist and hips, which you can sort of get away with due to the ruching, but this made it much less flattering in the waist and hip region. I wish RTR would curate a collection of maxi dresses that you can wear if you are on the shorter side! 

This was a nice stretchy dress. The length was perfect for me with heels (I'm 5'6) so I guess that could be an issue for some. I though the scrunches in the middle made it flattering. Great summer dress.
