Gorgeous and fun
I wore this to a black tie wedding and it was really gorgeous and fun. Definitely chestier on me than the model, but I was pleasantly surprised it stayed put for the most part. I tried to tape myself in but the tape pretty much immediately unstuck and I was still fine. I wore with the Cakes triangle covers as my bra and was perfect. That said, this dress is LONG and slippery. I'm 5'6" and even in heels it was completely dragging on the ground. I kept pulling it up and holding it in one hand (especially to dance), but it's really slippery material and so many layers that it made it nearly impossible. Very easy to damage and people kept stepping on it and I kept tripping. That's my only watch out! I feel like I was exactly in between sizes and opted for the larger size just for comfort cuz the smaller size felt a little tight on my ribs and I knew I'd need to be in it for 12 hours.

My friend wore this and it was perfect on her!
So I ordered this for work and it fit ok but was a bit blah on me. It didn't hit me right at the waist and I had to belt it and it was fine but not my favorite. The material is also a bit thick and stiff, and it makes some noise when you move. I was underwhelmed, it's just not my style. Then my roommate saw it and loved it so I told her try it on and it was PERFECT on her. She's 5 feet tall exactly and a size 4. She wore it instead and I'm glad I ordered it! It was so cute and she got compliments all day.

Loved it!
Loved this jacket - super soft and cute style. I first ordered this in a small and it was a bit tight in the arms/very tight to zip, so I sized up to a medium but the medium was a bit big in the shoulders. Ultimately I wore it in both sizes and got lots of compliments and was very comfortable in it, but the sizing was just a tiiiiny bit off on me.

Glad I sized up!
Glad I read reviews and sized up from my usual 4 to a 6. They fit perfectly and were so so fun. I got so many compliments at work, even from strangers in the hallway. There are pockets and they have a lining so they're nice a thick and hold their shape, but they're still soft and comfy. Perfect RTR work pick!

Cute sunglasses!
These were cute and a fun pick! The frames are on the smaller size and the color is a deep red/maroonish color. It's always fun to try new glasses and I liked these. There are hidden nose pieces too.

This may be my favorite thing I've ever worn in my entire life.
I am OBSESSED with this jumpsuit and would buy it in a heartbeat if it wasn't so expensive. I have never felt so good nor received so many compliments in one night in my life. Strangers were coming up to me to tell me how much they loved it. I wore it to a wedding that had a dress code of "snazzy" (not kidding). I wore it with pumps for the ceremony then put on flat sandals for the reception and it was perfect. Some people in other reviews complained it was too long but I'm 5'6" and didn't have that problem. There's a slight plastic ribbing that helps it stay up - I didn't wear a bra with it and it stayed up comfortably without having to tug at it. It fit like a glove. I just love it so much.

Nah
I rented this as an option for a wedding. It runs quite small (and I sized up based on other reviews) and the top is so straight cut, it just wasn't flattering. I didn't wear it.

Cool dress, but be prepared with tape!
This was a really cool dress but I ultimately opted not to wear it. I didn't feel like taping myself into it, and there's a bit more side boob showing than I expected. It's really cool though and for the right function would look awesome! You definitely need tape and a tiny stick on bra. No support in the dress.

Totally fine dress
Totally fine dress. Super simple, stretchy material, fit totally fine. Just didn't end up needing to wear it. A bit boring if you're going to rent.

Gorgeous dress!!
I rented this dress for a wedding in Sonoma and it was absolutely perfect. The color is more blue than it appears in the photos and it's lightweight but has a solid structure all at the same time. I got so many compliments throughout the night and it was very comfortable. I opted to wear it without a bra. The only thing to note is that it's very tight right below the boobs on the upper rib cage and there's no give. It worked, but I was a tad worried it looked too tight. Probably could have opted for a size up to have it a bit looser there, but I still loved it. Definitely recommend. Oh, and it has POCKETS!
