Lightweight
It was a little thinner than I expected therefore a bit clingy, and the length was a bit weird

So many compliments
I wore this for a news segment and it was great on camera, photographed well, a nice length. The sleeves are split so watch the bra strap poking out. I received so many compliments on this dress

These were cute but the waist was too big (and that's not usually a problem for me). They also stretched out as Joe's jeans tend to do. The length was ankle length and I'm 5-4

Loved it but...
I loved this dress so much but it was a bit too snug. I'm usually an 8-10 in dressed but would have needed a 13 in this one. I have a big rib cage and it was tight. It was almost wearable but my husband said it needed to be a bit bigger. lol

Loved this skirt. I kept it for months in my rental plan. It ran big for a 28 but then the 27 was far too small. I liked the loose fit and it didn't hang weird. So many uses and so many compliments. It went on lots of vacations with me as it's so versatile.

Loved this shirt because the arm cut is fostering g and it's really cute but it's huge. I'm usually an 8 but grabbed this in a 10 bc I thought why not. There is plenty of room in this shirt. Even if I would've gotten my usual size I still could've gone down a size

Non-stop Complements
The dress does run very long but I picked it up and carried it versus not wearing it because I loved it so much. You can leave the neckline up or down with the tie around the back. For reference I am usually a standard medium or an 8/10 in dresses in this town was too big, especially in the hips. (And I have hips and a butt). But lots of compliments. Including someone who walked across the room at a 1200 person party to tell me they like my dress

Loved this for my Mother-In-Law's 70th Birthday High Tea and it was perfect. I wore it with black tights and booties because it was a little chilly. I normally wear a size 10-12 in dresses (big rib cage and shoulders) and I wore an 8 in this one.

Complements galore!
I wore this dress for family photos and then again for an interview and I had so many complements on it. It's great because it covers that armpit area that's always a problem. The length is good. It does run a little large but is overall very flattering and I am short waisted and had too much wine the night before - it still covered up the bloat well. (But note the bra issue - had I have seen that, I would've worn a smoother bra. I thought the fabric was thick enough).

Classic.
I loved this dress. Unfortunately I sized up as my size wasn't available. It was a bit baggy but it didn't appear too fit loosely (just to me). The fabric is thick. The top is low cut but seeing how cleavage isn't my gift i slapped on a little hollywood tape to prevent the girls from creeping out. PS - if it's only available in a long, go for it. I'm not tall but because of the slit it still worked.

No vanity sizing here
This isn't the world's most flattering dress but the pattern makes it fun. It's very tight across the back. I am usually an 8/10 in dresses and a 34B/C and based on the reviews, I picked this one up in an XL. it was still incredibly tight across my back where I was afraid i'd rip the material so I had to return it. So size up if you have a broadish back or shoulders.

LBD for the win
This dress is nice and stretch but the texture helps hide any bumps. I wore this while 8 months pregnant to a work event. It had enough sass to be interesting but not work inappropriate. I ended up sizing down because the top was a little big and the fit was off up there.

An eye catcher
Great shirt! I rec'd a lot of compliments on it. It is on the shorter side so high waisted pants are a plus. I wore it to church on christmas eve and out to dinner another night so it's a diverse piece. The construction is beautiful and it's comfortable. I have a bigger rib cage/shoulders and the 10 fit perfectly.

A little red people pleaser
I am short waisted so jumpsuits and I dont always get along, not to mention my husband doesnt really like them so to fine one that met both those requirements was fantastic! It's low cut but I'm a b cup so it wasnt a big deal at all. The length was good for a 3 in pair of heels. I only wish i wouldve worn it when it was warmer so i didnt have to cover up the beautiful back with a jacket. Oh and you cannot wear a bra with this.

Loved this. I felt like a classy little red riding hood! A great way to tie together an outfit. If it's really cold where you are, I'd skip this one. There's definitely a little breeze.

Striking color
The color is gorgeous - a magenta/purple color...more purple than pink. It's simple and the fabric is light. The detail in the back made it feel a little old to me but would be great for a wedding or something that you're not trying to be too sexy. I have a bigger ribs and shoulders with a bit of a butt and the medium fit well and was just the right amt of loose. Oh and the length was about knee length on me

It fit just right
I have thighs and a butt so rompers aren't always my friend. (Let's be honest they may be harder to shop for than bathing suits)! This one was sort but not too short and had room for the bum. The biggest challenge I had was A)the top kept unsnapping. I have a broader back and shoulders but don't have much in the chest area. B) going to the bathroom is a struggle. But I loved it!

Not aboard the love boat
This dress isn't for you if you have a broader upper body or hips. The snaps make you look broad and the pockets enhance the hip area. It fit true to size but I looked like I spent too much time on the lido deck (i.e. A hot mess) so it went back. Was worth a shot!

Wonder Woman in a varsity jacket
How can you not love a cape? This one is even more brilliant because it doesn't hang into your food and is casual but chic all at the same time. It's a little dressed down if you're looking for something fancy as it has snaps and a stretchy collar but it's very cute and the fit is very true to bcbg sizing. I have a broad back and shoulders and wore a medium (and it snapped closed).

Cuter than it looks in the photo
The dress was much cuter and less 'apron-like' in person than it was on the model. I wish it worked but I'm short waisted and didn't have the length for it...the dress bunched in the top half. Cute though

Meh
I was so excited to get this dress and it was just meh. Like most pieces, it looked better on RTR, but the fit was off. I have a bigger rib cage and what I consider curvy hips and this dress in a size 10 was pulling across the chest and had 2-3 extra inches in the hips. (I typically wear between a 6-10 in dresses). The style and fit just weren't doing it for me.

Meh
I liked this dress because the pattern was different and the top looked fabulous. They didn't have my original size of a small but I still tried the medium which was too big and made me look pregnant according to my husband. The chest had way too much extra fabric and there was no way to adjust the straps. The dress was fine but not what I had hoped for.

Add a little color to your outfit
I loved this necklace and received a lot of compliments on it. It was a great way to dress up an average t-shirt and jeans or a little black dress. the only feedback I would give you is that the little pieces don't lie flat and tend to stick up and poke you in the neck. if you don't mind that, then go for it. I really loved this piece.

Pretty, but not too girly, in pink
I wore this dress for a baby shower (where we were encouraged to wear pink...in the fall). Since it was chilly I wore it with black tights, booties and a black leather jacket. I really liked that this dress was feminine but fashion forward. I don't do florals so this was perfect. I love the tie in the back. There was enough room in the middle to eat and wasn't too short. I'd say it runs a little bit large but I would've probably still gone for the medium.

Best if long waisted!
I loved this dress for a date night and I got it in a size 8 (which fits in most dresses). Now I wasn't sure as I have a big rib cage and am short waisted but rolled the dice. I didn't win this time. The dress was so tight around my ribs I couldn't even zipper it. This dress is defintely meant for a smaller chested, long waisted gal. Oh well - better luck next time.

Great dress - fabulous color!
I ordered this dress in both size 6 and an 8 for a garden party themed charity event. I'm usually closer to an 8 but one never knows. I ended up wearing the 8 which was snug through the chest. I have a bigger rib cage and shoulders but nothing a little spanx couldn't help. The length and texture of the dress is great and the color is fabulous. I received a ton of compliments on it and would definitely wear it again

Nice dress but didn't wear it because of the fit
I ordered this dress for a Kentucky derby party. It looked a little baggy on the model (then again she is a model) so I figured I'd have some room. I'm short waisted with a broader rib cage and normally wear a 6-8. I ordered an 8 with a backup of a 10. the 8 was skin tight and the 10 was baggy. Overall the dress was very cute but alas didn't work for me.

Great dress. Even for a hot summer day.
I rented this dress for an outdoor polo event. Mind you it was summer = hot + humid. While not the most breathable dress it didn't show sweat and I looked cool as a cucumber. The waistband has some elastic to it so it had some forgiveness on sizes. I'm very short waisted and this dress fit perfectly fine and looked great with a pair of booties and derby hat. I am typically a 6-8 in dresses and the six had a little extra space. Oh did I mention this dress also has pockets? Winning!

Great dinner out
I ended up choosing this dress when the original dress I picked was returned to RTR damaged. (Customer service was amazing in getting me a new dress in time). I saw this style and said why not? I loved this dress. A little flare to the typical black dress and I received so many compliments on it. I have a larger rib cage and my midsection is not my favorite body part so I'm always wary. This dress fit like a glove - close enough to show curves but not enough to wear spanx or not drink wine (the best kind of dress right)? I would absolutely rent it again.
