I've always wanted to wear a jumpsuit!
This outfit was so much fun to wear! It was easy to get on and off by yourself since there is no zipper! The pockets are the best part! I could have easily sized down in this, it felt a little loose, but it worked so I just wore what I had! Definitely worth a try!!!

I'm sad this didn't fit
The dress came in, the hook was missing already, I knew review said to size up I did, but it still didn't fit. I couldn't get the zipper to close even though the fabric did come together the zipper just wouldn't move. (It would have been really tight but it should have technically closed at least)

Just okay
This dress was comfortable and stylish, but there was something weird about it I can't put my finger on. It's almost like it wanted to be casual with the type of material used, but formal with the length and the cute slit in the shoulder. I tried to dress it up with heels for a rehearsal dinner, I just never felt like I was dressy enough for the situation. I struggled to put this dress on because it was so tight, by the end of the night it was so stretched out that it didn't hold me in anymore.

Pretty but didn't wear it
Dress is very figure flattering, the dress was weird in the front and I'm not fully certain that it wasn't ripped in one spot (the flap in the front had made the gathering to the side fall funny). I ultimately decided to go with a different RTR dress, but this was absolutely beautiful in person. The material was soft!

This dress is everything!
I have never felt sexier in a dress! It fit like a glove and hugged every curve I had. The shoulder straps were a touch annoying because they kept falling but I didn't care because I felt like a million dollars in this little sexy dress!

The color was the best part
I loved this dress on the site, I didn't realize until after the wedding when I saw pictures of the dress on me how short it was! I'm 5'5" and wore 2" heels and the dress was up to my ankles. I would have preferred it to go a little longer. So if you're on the fence about the length I'd recommend doing the longer length to achieve the right look. The dress fit wonderfully and I did get compliments on the style, just didn't love this dress like a few others I've worn.

That bow is gorgeous! But runs small.
I was so excited to wear this to a wedding, it came in and the zipper made it almost impossible to zip up, it kept getting stuck in one spot and my poor husband managed to zip my skin. By the time we got it zipped up I realized it wasn't worth the struggle and it was so tight in the rib cage and chest that even though my love for the bow was so strong, it went back.

Cute but felt like a bag
I wanted to love this dress more than anything! I really wanted to wear it to a rehearsal dinner but I really felt like I was wearing a bag. It didn't really compliment my frame at all. But that back is absolutely gorgeous! It was lightweight and those pockets! Love! I wish it didn't just hang on me.

Beautiful but clingy
The dress is absolutely stunning. I didn't end up using this dress for 2 reasons. One being that it was far to clingy in the stomach area and I have a Mom belly and the idea of wearing this dress with spanx just didn't make it an option for me. The other reason was even though I'm 5'5" the 8R was a touch too short for me. I like when the dress goes to the floor and my shoes aren't showing. I had 2" heels on.

Lightweight but small
I was nervous because all the other reviews said it was tight in the ribcage area but I chanced it because the M was all that was available. There's no stretch whatsoever and the M didn't zip. The dress was beautiful and light. Wish a Large was available.

Beautiful but not for me
I was really hoping this dress was everything I imagined, but it fell short. The dress clings to every single last lump and bump, it was heavier than I expected, and the sequins painfully rubbed my arms. I sent it back, sadly. It's absolutely gorgeous in person but just not right if you have issue areas like I did. I just don't think I would have been comfortable all night long in it.
