Festive and comfortable!
Was skeptical that a one piece would work for me but ended up really liking this. As others have said, definitely size up. Zipper was frustrating but otherwise enjoyed this as a great party look.

Great fall wedding dress
Beautiful dress in person, loved the colors and dress was very comfy. I wore the larger of two sizes (2) and fit was great, no issues with tightness or gapping in the top.

Casual and Comfy!
Wore this to a daytime summer event and it kept me cool and comfortable. It can be super casual, but with some jewelry and nicer shoes was able to dress it up just enough. Lots of buttons! (Beware when using the ladies room.)

Great style and quality, but not the best for curves!
I rented these for a night out in both 4 and 6 (I'm typically a 4, but can go either 2 or 6 depending on style). While I was pleasantly surprised by the heavier fabric on these pants, they just didn't work for me. The 4 didn't work at all, and though I ended up wearing the 6, the stomach area was a bit baggy while the rear and thighs were super tight - I was afraid I was going to bust through! These would probably work better on someone with a slimmer or more narrow build.

Striking colors and so easy to wear!
I wore this to a family Thanksgiving dinner and paired it with tall suede boots for fall, but it could easily be dressed up with strappy sandals and was light enough to wear in warmer months. This dress is as comfy as a t-shirt, yet the interesting hemline and great colors got me lots of compliments. Material is thin and comfy but the dress is lined.

Fun, comfy dress for a night out
Though I received tons of compliments on this dress, I just wasn't in love with the style. The color is gorgeous, and the material is thick enough to be worn year round. Though the small did fit, I went with the medium to allow for a looser cuff and a lower waist - the waist on the small was a bit high and would tug up when I moved my arms. Unlike other reviewers, I had no issues with the snap at the top, but I agree that I found the sleeves a bit puffy for my taste.

Perfect for New Years!
Perfect for New Years! I was looking for something festive but comfortable and this fit the bill. The pant is a comfy stretchy material - very forgiving and perfect for dancing the night away. The top has adjustable straps and the black sequins were just flashy enough for this special occasion without being too garish. I wore with a strapless bra but you could even get away with a regular bra if you didn't mind exposing the straps. Also, I have longer lengths and often have problems with the pant length on jumpsuits, but this one fit perfectly.

Comfortable and classy, but not spectacular
I wanted to love this dress and loved it in the photos. Though I received many compliments, I actually thought this dress was only so-so on. The waist is a bit high and the hips a bit wide - even on me - so the fit was slightly frumpy on me. I liked that it can be worn with a traditional bra, and the overlay was nice (though mine was damaged a bit on the bottom) but it just wasn't as spectacular as others I've rented.

Fabulous color really stood out!
I actually rented this one for my mom, who typically wears dark pants to special events. She loved it! The style would work great on both a younger woman and as well as a more mature woman like mom, and the color really stood out in a sea of navy blue. She felt comfortable but classy.

Comfortable, sexy but not too sexy, dress!
Picked this up at the RTR store in DC as an emergency back-up after my original Maid of Honor dress was cancelled. Would not have chosen this based on photos, but ended up absolutely loving it, and received so many compliments. The color was more green to me than the teal pictured. The dress itself is fitted but with a bit of stretch so super comfortable, and it can be worn easily with a regular bra, which I loved. The close fit makes it sexy, but the length and sleeve keep it classy. Love this dress!

Great style for a bridal shower!
Loved the style and material of this dress. I ordered both the two and the four; four was definitely more comfortable around the hips ( which are fitted) but the top was way too loose and baggy. Ended up going with the two which fit perfectly on top, but found myself constantly tugging it down due to tightness in the hips. Might work better for someone slightly smaller in the hips! Otherwise, overall a cute style.

Fabulous dress for an outdoor summer beach party!
This was one of two choices I had ordered for a daytime outdoor beach party. I am generally either a 2 or a 4 depending on the style, and was a bit concerned as this was only available in the 2, but it fit perfectly. The silky material was super lightweight and so worked well for me in the heat and sun, and the seahorse pattern made it extra cute for the beach. Because of the cut, I wore with a black strapless bra, which worked fine. While the material is a bit sheer, the dress is lined at the bust area which allowed for the black bra.

Fun dress, great color and fabric, comfortable and easy to wear!
I'm typically either a size 2 or 4 depending on style, but the 4 definitely worked better for me in this case as the top of the dress is quite fitted, and I have a larger chest. As other reviewers have mentioned, this dress is definitely a bright pink, and the length was a bit longer on me than on the model (I'm 5'7"). I loved that the dress was cute and sexy with the cutouts on the side, yet comfortable and easy to wear - I wore a strapless bra. The only down side, as others have mentioned, is that the dress wrinkles SO easily. It came out of the box wrinkled, and I tried to iron it a bit before wearing but was nervous about damaging the silky material. So, I ended up being a bit wrinkled all night, but didn't mind because the dress was really just so comfortable and fun. Lots of compliments on this one - I even got a compliment on the gold zipper on the back!

Cute on the model but didn't work for me.
I had selected this outfit as a back-up style for an early evening wine cruise which required pink outfits. I'm typically either a size 2 or 4 depending on style, but in this outfit the 4 definitely fit best. While the overall fit was fine, this jumpsuit seems small/short from the shoulder to inseam, so that I felt as if I even shrugged my shoulders slightly the pants would tug uncomfortably (and unflatteringly). I think other reviewers have mentioned the same. Overall, this style was just not flattering on me, and the fit of the pants was a bit frumpy. I'm definitely more curves, and perhaps this would work better on someone with a more slim/straight body type.

Fabulous, comfortable, festive dress!
Love this dress. I wore this to a New Years Eve dinner at a restaurant and received SO many compliments. My favorite thing about this dress is that it is comfortable and easy - you can wear a regular bra - but the short top adds a little bit of sexiness without being the slightest bit uncomfortable. I think it also helped that the dress is fairly new, and so the dresses I received were in perfect condition. I ordered a two and a four - both fit but I found the four more comfortable, especially in the top.

Unique and attention getting!
I wore this dress to the Kentucky Derby with black sandals and a ridiculous black and white hat. It was perfect! I've never gotten more compliments on a dress. One woman even stopped me to ask me where I had bought it, and told me she had been stalking my dress all day. As other reviewers have mentioned, it's a bit large in the bust, but didn't cause any problems. Because of the low cut on the sides I wore this without a bra - the thicker scuba-like material made this comfortable and just fine. Such a fun, unique dress which can be dressed up or down for day or night. Love!

Perfect for a night out in Manhattan! Wore this to a NY event with fishnets and black booties.
Fit was true to size - I only ordered the medium (large, my backup, was unavailable). Medium was perfect - stretchy and fitted but super comfy. The higher neckline and long sleeves made it perfect for a chilly night out. Does show pantyline so you'll need the right undergarments, but was able to wear a regular bra with no problems.
