Not good for a breezy day!
I thought this dress was great and was perfectly appropriate for work. Was comfortable and not too short. Only issue was it kept blowing up in the breeze at the slightest wind.

Loved this dress I wore it like 4 days in a row. It's perfect for work in the summertime and also nice brunch or casual dinner. Really comfortable too. Would buy!

A different silhouette
Wore this dress for my rehearsal dinner since it was summer and I didn't want to wear a typical white dress. The silhouette was different than the usual dress and it was fun and flirty.

This dress was body con and sexy and the bright pattern made it perfect for a tropical wedding.

2 L? More like too long!
I liked this dress a lot and got many compliments. The color is great too. I worried that the skirt would be unflattering but it actually was slimming. Three things to know about this dress: you either need a backless bra or no bra, the material on the top section is a little pilled but looks fine in photos, the L is very long! I kept tripping and I am 5'10.

Bright and comfortable
This dress just fit like a glove and was super comfortable to dance in. The dress looks great in photos because the color is so vibrant. I liked the detail on the cap sleeve.

Bridal shower dress
I wore this for my bridal shower. It was in March in Chicago, so it wasn't warm out--this dress was a thicker fabric so it was perfect to have that bridal feel but be warm enough for the season. Wrinkles a but easily.

Derbylicious
Tight in the chest and very conservative at the same time. It fits pretty true to size. I wore this to a Kentucky derby party and it was a hit!

Unique and chic!
I wore this dress to a Cambodian community wedding ceremony. I thought it would be festive and an homage to the Asian aesthetic and I was right! The fit in the bust and arms was a bit tight, so I'd recommend going up a size. Overall, this was a great RTR pick as it is something you couldn't really get away with wearing more than once.

Short and sweet!
I got tons of complements on it . I'm 5"10 so the dress was a bit short but it stayed in place so there were no wardrobe malfunctions. I definitely recommend renting the Kate Spade mint green necklace to go with it-/it really completed the look.

This dress was a hit, but maybe for someone with bigger boobs.
I rented this dress for a DC outdoor wedding. While many of the women were dressed in more flowy or conservative styles, I know that I look and feel the best in body hugging dresses. I got so many compliments and my boyfriend was especially pleased. The only disappointment was it felt like the bust area was stretched out. I had rented the Medium as backup and it fit pretty similarly to the small everywhere but the bust. I ended up not wearing a bra and just trying to keep my shoulders back so I didn't flash anyone. It ended up OK, but I would recommend using fashion tape or those strapless cutlet thingys. Overall, I loved the dress and felt very sexy.
