After getting married at City Hall in Chicago, my husband and I hosted a post-wedding party in March. I wasn't sure I wanted to go with a white dress, but gave this one a shot and it worked out perfectly for our winter party. The cut is very flattering. The dress has a great golden sheen to it. I am normally an 8, but had to settle for the available 6 in this selection. While the dress worked, it was quite fitted through the hips and I would've liked to try a bigger size. It fit perfectly at the waist and in the chest. I had no problems wearing a normal bra with the dress, and it wasn't see-through at all. I received a lot of compliments and would definitely recommend this selection!

I had really high hopes for this dress. Unfortunately, it's made of a wetsuit like material. Not sure if I had an older dress but the white looked a little dingy. The pattern is great and the cut is flattering. The dress is form fitting but still forgiving. It has a zipper that goes all the way up and down the back so you can make the back slit as high as you like. This dress might have been fun for a night out but it wasn't classy enough for the event I was attending. Overall, a bit disappointing for an RTR selection.

I wore this dress to a summer wedding and it was perfect! The color is a fantastic deep royal blue that was really flattering. The waistline and the side ruffle are also flattering and the top ruffle wasn't too much either. I tried both the 8 and the 10 and thought the fit of the 10 was slightly better so went with that. I would agree with the other reviewers who recommend going up a size. My only tweak / complaint was that the straps were about an inch too long. When I first tried on the dress, the front hung very low and the straps didn't want to stay in place. They also looked like they'd been stretched and bent a bit out of shape from prior use. With the help of some safety pins and fashion tape, I shortened the straps so that the dress stayed up a bit better. Even then, the straps tended to slip down all night. I am no designer, but it seems that straps made from something stretchy or with something adjustable would've been better. Overall, I loved the dress and would recommend it.

I grabbed this dress as a backup style for a summer wedding. I was very surprised to see that the base color of the dress is actually a weird pale pink. The printed floral pattern is very bright, but the overall combination was not as nice looking as I hoped, especially on my tan complexion. From the other reviews, it looks like it's a better fit with fairer skin. Fit wise, the dress was fine but not terribly flattering. I ordered an 8 and think I could've gone down a size for a better fit. I am usually an 8 or 10. I tend to wear dresses that fit like this to work, so for my fun events, I like something a little more fitted and flattering. Fortunately, the other dress I picked out worked perfectly.

I loved this dress. I wore it to a rehearsal dinner and got tons of compliments, the fit was very flattering and the colors are great. It also has pockets which are always awesome. I am typically somewhere between an 8 (top) and a 10 (bottom, especially in the rear), size wise, so I ordered both. The 8 was snug but very doable and the 10 was too big. I like dresses that emphasize the waist and this cut did a great job of that. The only reason this isn't a five star dress is that the 8 and the 10 had very different prints. The 8 had a lot more bright colors, especially the yellow. The 10 was just not as nice looking. If that had been my print, I would've been very disappointed.

I wanted to wear this dress to an anniversary party. The color and fit were great, but unfortunately the dress was much longer than pictured. It came significantly below the knee rather than above the knee as pictured. Further, the dress is a little longer in the middle than on the sides. I am 5'7, usually size 8, and do have shortish legs but I don't think I've ever had such a disparity.
