Great, slightly conservative, cocktail dress for a Sat. night party.
Wore this to a Sat. night bat mitzvah party. The dress was extremely comfortable because of its slightly stretchy material, and fit very well. Length below the knee and sleeves to elbows made the look somewhat conservative. Great value for the money.

Couldn't figure out how to get this dress on properly. Too bad, since it looks beautiful in photos.
Wore my back-up gown which fortunately worked perfectly!

Perfect dress for my friend's daughter's wedding rehearsal dinner
The fit was snug but somehow it looked just right. The length was shorter than my usual, more conservative, dress length -- yet by accenting my legs, the whole look worked really well. I highly recommend this dress. The colors are smashing and the burgundy lace overlaying the turquoise sheath makes for a stunning, modern elegant look. Thank you, RTR!

This dress was perfect for a close friend's daughter's black tie wedding.
I loved this dress but I needed to pin up the shoulder straps and duct-tape (!) the lining in order for the fit to be right. After the adjustments the dress looked stunning on me and I received many compliments.

Great dress for a black tie optional, Sunday afternoon wedding of a friend's daughter.
The 44 was too tight in the torso but the 46 was fine -- actually a bit roomy! This dress is a show-stopper and I received numerous compliments. The length is more modest than depicted in the RTR photograph -- my knees were just covered and I am 5'3" tall.

I wore this dress to the wedding of a friend's son.
The dress fit beautifully and was very flattering. My tummy was hidden. The dress was comfortable. I received many compliments. I would wear it again! Note that we needed to tape the hem so I would not trip over the bottom.
