The dress color is gorgeous and the material catches the light beautifully! Sadly, I wasn't able to wear this because the top was HUGE. The sleeves fell off and it looked like I had borrowed the dress from a friend who is a DD (I am a B). It was both too big and unflattering in that respect. The hips fit nicely for someone who is pear shaped, and the black ribbon really defined my waist and was overall slenderizing. I recommend this dress for someone who is large chested (or wants to appear that way!). It just didn't work for me. There also was a very small tear at the bottom of the dress, but it was not noticeable. In terms of length, I am 5'7" and it was floor-length with a 3" heel. Beautiful dress that I hated to pass up! Fortunately RTR was very kind about returns for fit.

This is a beautiful dress, material, and color, but it just did not fit me right. Thankfully RTR allows returns for fit and they were very nice and accommodating. The waist is TINY compared to the rest of the dress. I am extremely pear shaped, so in good news it will fit most pear-shaped women in the hips. But even with my (comparatively) small waist, the six waist was too tight for me. It fit everywhere else (bust and hips), just too small in the waist. And my backup (size 8) still had a super tight waist; I could zip it, but then the bust was too big! It might work well for someone with a tiny waist and larger chest. Also, a note on length. I am 5'7" and ordered the regular. It was fine with 2 1/4" heels but I couldn't have gone much taller. For someone like me who is in-between the regular and long sizes, the decision on this one will depend on what height shoe you plan to wear.

This dress was great for an outdoor wedding. The color looked AWESOME in pictures. The length is nice -- just an inch or two above the knee (on 5' 7"). I am usually a solid 8 at the bottom, and the 6 fit fine, so there is definitely room in the hips if you are pear shaped. I'm smaller at the top and it fit well. I would elaborate and say that it ran true to size at the top and large at the bottom. Really great dress and I got lots of compliments! Could wear with nude or black shoes, and I paired it with turquoise Kendra Scott Danielle Earrings to bring out the light blue in the shoulder design. Really fun dress!
