This dress is light and flirty!
This dress was rented for a brunch at Antoine's, the oldest restaurant in the French Quarter in New Orleans. I was attending Festigals, and also it was my birthday!! I walked several city blocks to and from the party, in 100% humidity and oppressive heat. This dress was perfect! It floated along, didn't rise up or make me sweat. I usually wear a 10 but the back where the keyhole button closure was wanted to bunch up. I put on the 8 and it was perfection. One teeny complaint is the lining wanted to peep out around the hem just a bit. Otherwise, I was super happy with this dress! It is simple, yet elegant.

I felt electric blue and comfortable!
I am a pear shape, this was perfect. The 8 fit, but I wanted to go with a little looser fitting because I was riding on a float in the Easter parade. Yes, if you have large upper arms this dress will not be forgiving. I don't have that problem, and it was a good fit. Love, love the pockets.

PERFECTION for the Easter Parade
This dress was comfort. I am pear shaped and this dress suited me perfectly. I normally wear a 10, but the 8 was a great fit, so I chose it as my backup size. I rode on the Easter Parade float and tossed beads and toys, and all the bending and reaching was no issue. The lace stretches easily. Beautiful fabric, roomy hidden side pockets for cell phone or glasses, and on a short person like me, perfect length. Compliments from all around. As in all my other comments about this company, RTR rocks!!

Comfortable and pretty!
First, let me state that RTR has to be the most dedicated, awesome company. In the midst of a hurricane, which I FULLY comprehend after living through Katrina, they shipped me my dresses overnight airmail. I was headed out shopping 2 days prior to a destination wedding to look for a mother of the groom dress, and I received the email that my dresses were on the way! This company ROCKS! Having sang their praises, now let me critique this dress. I loved this dress. It was for the rehearsal supper, and I was so comfortable. The color is beautiful, not quite as red as the website portrays. It is more a wine/burgundy. Wore it with nude pumps. You can't go wrong with this dress. Thank you RTR for your customer service and great selection of dresses!

OMG

Having sang their praises, now let me critique this dress. Perfect. Elegant. I felt like a star. The wedding was at a venue in New Orleans, and there were hundreds of candles. The beading on this dress picked up all the flickering light and was twinkling away. It is a substantial dress with boning, lined extremely well, and slightly drapes on the shoulder (I wore a VS bra with clear non-slip straps so it was not a problem at all!). Beautiful, glamorous, and comfortable! I danced away to all sorts of music. Compliments galore. Gorgeous. Loved it 100%. Thank you RTR, for your customer service and tremendous selection of dresses!!!

Loved it!
This bracelet is so elegant. It was a perfect assessory for a fall wedding. It is not for women with larger bone structure! My wrists are the tiniest part of me and it fit snug. It does have a hinge that allows it to give a little. I would have loved to keep it!

Very pretty!
This necklace is super pretty, but I opted out of wearing it. I have a petite frame, and it overpowered me and my dress. I wore simple jewelry, due to the fact my dress was so fabulous (Marc Valco "In and Out of Love" dress). I would def recommend it with a solid color dress.

Perfect!
This clutch was leather, yet glittery. It is large enough to keep several necessary things stashed away. I carried it to the rehearsal supper and the wedding as well. Awesome, lovely clutch.

Easter Parade
I wore this dress to the Chris Owens Easter Parade in New Orleans. I rode on one of the floats during the parade and this dress was so comfortable. The fabric is a little stretchy and it gives when you move about. Every time I got on the elevator in the hotel, different guests would compliment me on my dress. It was perfect! Thanks RTR!
