Gorgeous and comfortable
Great dress for a wedding. As in other reviews, the top was a bit too large on me but otherwise a great fit and flattering. I wore a regular strapless bra that I pinned beneath the strap in the back.

Gorgeous, easy dress
This dress is why I love RTR ... I wouldn't spend $500 on a piece that's too distinct to wear frequently, but loved having it to wear twice. It's a loose and very comfortable dress but still has a nice shape. If you're between sizes, I'd recommend going down.

Runs a bit small
I didn't end up wearing this because the waist was too tight for me (got the size 2; I'm a 26 in jeans). Will rent again one size up.

Perfect for garden wedding
I brought this to a wedding with a pale pink dress. It was a perfect accessory. It's just as pictured.

DVF Classic
I loved this dress. I own a few DVF wraps and it was great to try it in a new fabric. The print was even better than pictured. It's a flattering cut and high quality fabric. I did pin it at the chest and on the side seam each with a small safety pins for extra security.

Nice top but very long sleeves
Great top as pictured. Need a cami underneath. One issues was that that sleeves were way too long (I'm 5ft4); I needed to roll them up which was a bit tricky with the fabric.

Great party dress!
This dress is stylish, flattering and comfortable -- good for a party where you want to look good but not stand out too much. I loved it. I wore it to an evening wedding in NYC with big earrings and silver strappy heels. I usually wear a size 2 or 4, and went with the 4 . It was tight on the top (34B), but loose below the waist. I didn't wear a bra (the top is a thick fabric and fits snug) but you can easily wear a regular strapless bra under it. FYI the skirt is pretty light and feels like it would blow up easily so I wouldn't recommend it for a windy outdoor event.

Perfect earring for a cocktail party
Loved these! I usually shy away from dangly earrings because I'm afraid they'll be heavy and painful but these were neither -- They were light and comfortable and I easily wore them all night.

Fun party dress!
I received tons of compliments on this one at a birthday cocktail party in NYC. It's easy and comfortable and is a stand out color and flattering fit. I typically wear a size 2 or 4 and wore the small. It fit on the bottom and waist but was a bit big in the top so I pinned the front closed with a safety pin and added a little dress tape and was good to go. I wore a regular bra. I paired it with silver strappy heels and rented sparkly earrings.

Loved this gorgeous and comfortable dress for a black tie summer wedding
True to the pictures -- Great color, super comfortable light fabric, and a flattering silhouette. I rarely wear long dresses as I find them often heavy and uncomfortable, but this one was effortless. Size: The dress ran small. I almost always wear a 2, and this was a 6. (I think the 4 would have worked too but wasn't available) -- I'd recommend ordering one size up. Length: I am 5'4" and wore 4" heels and the dress was just the right length / could have been a tad shorter. Neck line: I don't think you can wear this without dress tape to secure the deep v-neck to avoid flashing the party when you lean over. With the tape, it was secure all night after hours on the dance floor. I went without a bra which I rarely do, but the pleats on the front give enough coverage. The dress has a good lining so you don't see underwear lines either.
