Cute but SO short!!!
This dress is even prettier than it appears in the photos. The fabric is a lovely pattern and the delicate buttons are a lovely touch. Alas, it was way too short to wear in public... there was no way I would be able to sit down without the backs of my thighs touching a chair. In my younger years, this would have been a favorite item in my permanent wardrobe though!

I felt like a princess!
This dress is amazing. Comfortable and flattering AND it has pockets! The bodice haa a very deep V - I used both safety pins and fashion tape to keep it shut tight since we were attending a seated dinner. I received SO MANY compliments - I felt like a princess. I was in the dress for several hours and never thought about wanting to get out of it - and it didn't require restrictive shapewear. It helped to have my husband there to zip up the back.

Worn with turquoise jewelry and cowboy boots.
This was the perfect dress to wear to a special dinner party held at a casual western-themed venue. I paired it with cowboy boots and turquoise jewelry. The dress ran a bit big. As others have mentioned, it sits off the shoulders. I received many compliments and would definitely rent again!

Awful and unflattering
This dress is super cute in photos but looks awful in real-life. Thin fabric that shows everything underneath. The awkwardly fit bodice clings in some places and hangs shapelessness in others. The dress looks like it's cut for a woman with a boyish body but cartoonishly large breasts. Absolute no go.

Great top for a multi-course dinner!
I wore this for a supper club party where I wanted to be chic but knew I'd have a food belly by the end of the night. The fit is loose but not utterly shapeless. The neckline helps keep the silhouette together. The neck was a bit tight... but I later figured out that my husband didn't button it correctly so that might have made it tighter than necessary! I wore it with black leggings and a stacked heel peep toe bootie. It was a great outfit for a hot night in the south!

I got so many compliments that I bought it!
Super cute textured knit dress. I absolutely love this dress - work appropriate length and silhouette, sporty/preppy feel. I wore it to four things in a week - to work with a tailored blazer and heels, to brunch with flip flops, on a date night with a heeled peep tie bootie, and to an afternoon tea with a cardigan sweater. This is the perfect weekend travel dress or versatile day-to-date outfit. I loved it so much I bought it. The armholes are high enough to not show a bra - but the shoulders are cut slim so a racer back or strapless bra would be preferred. The dress is lined and zips up the back resulting in a fitted bodice and a-line flare from the waist down.

Too short, too tight
I wanted to wear this for a cocktail party but the fit wasn't great. The dress has a lining that is much less forgiving than the dress itself. I have very muscular thighs and pencil skirts/linings hit in all the wrong places. The lining has more of a pencil shape versus the flair of the dress. While the dress itself would have fit fine, the tight lining caused it to ride up higher than intended in the back. I was too worried I'd tear the lining when I sat down at dinner so I didn't wear it.

Possible option for courthouse wedding
I tried this out with RTR Unlimited as a possible option for my upcoming wedding. I loved the sleeves and neckline. The shift-styling was not ideal for this fabric in cream - it was thin enough that the seams on my undergarments were clearly visible. I think this would be a great option in a darker color.

This will be my courthouse wedding dress!
I'd been eyeing this dress online as a possibility for my "day dress" for my courthouse wedding. I figured that test-driving it with RTR Unlimited was a great way to try it first. It fits well and the fabric is thick enough to conceal bra seams. Too many white/cream dresses show EVERYTHING underneath but this kept me classily covered. Since I'm definitely wearing it for my upcoming wedding, I decided to buy it so I can alter it a tiny bit if I lose weight before the big day. Now I have more $$$$ to spend for my destination ceremony gown. Thanks RTR!!!
