Red hot!
Got lots of compliments on this red hot little number... I wish I had worn some boob tape (wearing a bra is not an option with the back), because the gapping on the side was a little noticeable. The large was definitely not an option, but the medium kept the girls mostly in place. I did find I was tugging on the dress a lot and trying to rearrange the top half, but it still looked fabulous, so I was pleased.

Wayyyyy too short
I knew from the photos that this would be short, but it was way way too short. I'm 5'10" and the dress just covered my derrière and due to the boxy fit, had I bent over or shimmied on the dance floor, everyone would be singing "I see London, I see France..." The fabric was nice and thick, but the cut was very straight (no curve for the waist) and the pockets were just a panel in the front that made it look a bit poochy.

Jazzed up my average LBD!
Lovely necklace- lay well, didn't get tangled when dancing, was relatively lightweight too. The chain is a weathered bronze color, but was largely hidden under my hair and the "diamonds" in the necklace made it match well with silver and platinum earrings / bracelet. The chain is also adjustable, I made it as long as possible, so it hung lower on my neck. All in all, it was a nice inexpensive way to dress up my go-to LBD.

Great color, but not flattering shape
The dress color is lovely and true to the online photos, but the shape really didn't do anything for my body. It seemed to be very high waisted and somehow made me look thicker around the middle. I think it would be better suited for someone a bit shorter or with a shorter torso.

Elegant gown, baby bump and big bosom friendly!
I wore this for a black tie wedding and was concerned about finding a dress that could accomodate my 14 week baby bump and ample bosoms! This dress fit the bill to a tee. RTR called me two days before to say the 8L was unavailable so I received the 10L and 12L as backup. The 12L was a bit too roomy up top and although it was looser around the stomach, the overall larger size caused the dress to hang longer which was too long on even my 5'10" frame with heels. I wore the 10L with 3 inch heels and received numerous compliments. It didn't hide my belly bump per se, but it did accomodate it nicely and the fit was comfy overall. I could wear a strapless bra and the girls were amply covered. One side note- I was originally going to wear the dress with sequined heels, but the sequins on the shoes were catching the inside of the dress making it difficult to move, so I opted for a pair of silver heels with a smooth finish instead.

More mermaid shape than I realized!
I should have looked more closely at the pictures as this dress is much more mermaid shape than I expected. The dress itself was lovely, but I do not have a bodyshape that is flattered by mermaid cuts so this was immediately a no go. Good thing my first pick worked out perfectly!

Great color, but a little cheap looking...
I ordered these along with the fabulous red preen dress. They matched the outfit well, but were a bit cheap looking. The earrings look more like they're made of plastic, which is good since they were lightweight, but the look was a bit too five and dime for me.

Cute, but wayyyy too short!
I ordered this in a medium and large, but unfortunately RtR did not have the Medium at the time of shipment. The large was a little large on top, but it was a no-go regardless since the dress was much too short on me. It was shorter than a mini and inappropriate for my event.

Wowing my guests before I even had the wedding dress on!
Yes, this dress definitely runs small, I'm 5'10", 150lbs and needed help zipping into the Large, but it looked fabulous once on! The color is definitely more bright red and not coral as it appears in the pictures. The dress is very flattering and made of a neoprene material almost like a wetsuit, so it holds in any unflattering rolls. I wore this to my Dress Rehearsal dinner and received a ton of compliments. As others have mentioned, it would benefit from an eye hook, so make sure you have help getting into it. I am full chested and had to reposition my right breast occasionaly or it would peak, but not fall out the side. Wearing a bra isn't really an option, but not needed either as the material holds everything in the right place.
