Beautiful dress, but ran very small.
This was a replacement dress that I didn't end up wearing because it was so small around the hips. Beware to pear shaped women! Order a size up. Beautiful dress though. The fabric was heavy duty. Clearly a nice quality. Lovely color.

Comfortable, modern and chic - great for a fall wedding!
I ordered the 10 with the 12 as my backup size. The 10 never made it to me (it was damaged), so RTR sent me another dress in a 10 instead. I ended up going with the 12 anyways. I'm small waisted and busted, so the top was a little too big, but the bottom fit well. Perhaps not the best look for a pear shape. Also, the hook at the nape of my neck kept on coming undone. That being said, I did love the overall look of the dress. It was comfortable and a very appropriate color for a fall wedding. The silhouette was modern and could easily handle fun jewelry. I'm 5'6", and the regular length was perfect.

Elegant AND comfortable (pockets for convenience)!
I'm 5'6" and wore the regular length --- I probably could have used another inch and a half on the length. Otherwise, the dress fit beautifully. The zipper was a little tough, but manageable. Overall -- both elegant and comfortable. Perfect for a black tie affair.

The neckline of this dress is a real showstopper!
Runs true to size. I ordered the regular length, wore 4" heels, and the length was perfect.

The architectural neckline of this dress really makes it stand out!
The 8 and 10 both fit, but the bottom half draped more nicely in the 10. I'm 5'6", and the regular length was perfect with 4" heels. Others have complained about the zipper. Both zipped just fine, but the 8 was more stubborn than the 10. Perfect for a pear shaped woman as the synched-in waist really highlights that area, and the bottom has room to breathe. While it is long, it isn't over the top, which was nice because very few people go all-out for black tie weddings these days. It felt like a happy medium between a cocktail dress and a formal ball gown. Definitely recommend it! Friends commented that I was "best dressed!"
