Easy to wear and attractive
I loved the material which wasn't too tight, hot, or prone to wrinkling. This was a great date night dress, but am also planning to wear it to a work function with a camisole. I loved the length which hit right at the knee (I'm 5'10'') and my husband loved everything about it. This would be a good dress to take on a trip due to the material.

Great work outfit
Great material and work appropriate. I paired with boots and it looked awesome! It runs really large so plan on getting at least two sizes smaller.

I never review clothes but this dress is special. I loved everything about it and sad to return it. A strapless bra is all you need to pull it off.

Pretty but has issues
Really wanted to like this one and planned to wear for work. It was too low cut, and too short (at least for the tall girls), but the killer were the really tight arm holes. I think I have fairly avg arm size and this material had no give

Only for ladies with small busts
Really wanted to wear this shirt but if was far too small for my chest even after ordering up a size. I have a long torso so I think this is designed for small busted and short torsoed ladies.

Beautiful dress that hugs your curves
The material was great and had a pretty unique print. I loved the fit and would rent again. Long enough too for the tall ladies. It was a little on the tight side so would recommend sizing up.

Fun pants!
Wore these for casual Friday at work and got lots of compliments on the pattern. They were super comfy. Definitely order a size down. I'm normally bt a 10 and 12 and these were still big at size 10.

So elegant. Loved it
Everyone loved this dress, esp my husband bc it was fairly low cut. He was sad when I took it back. Had lots of compliments throughout the day. Would def wear again.

Runs small and fabric picks up dirt easily
Part of the reason I do unlimited is to try stuff I would never ever buy. These pants are definitely different. They were comfortable and. pretty but I had no idea what to wear with it. You can't really tuck anything in bc it shows under the fabric. A crop top isn't an option at work. I realize the sweater I paired with it is probably out off style, but was the only thing in my closet. I think these pants were just too cool for me. Also they picked up dirt like crazy, so don't wear for a outdoor event or picnic.

Loved this look but not for women with larger chests
The only way I got this to fit was to wear a sports bra. Even then it still gapped fairly wide with the buttons. Also the sleeves were too short for me (i'm fairly tall). Probably could have gone up a size, but fit perfectly in the waist. Overall I loved the dress and would have purchases of not for those issues.

Loved. Loved.
I got so many compliments. This dress was both beautiful and comfortable. A little tight in the chest area perhaps but that was my only complaint. I used garment tape to keep the buttons from gaping.

Cute but perhaps too trendy for me
The fit was good. Loved the deep pockets and overall was very comfortable. I paired with a cream shirt and black booties. I added tights to give it extra warmth bc it was a thin linen material. Not sure if that was on trend or not bc these pants are probably too cool for me...

Fantastic dress! So many compliments
It was flirty and beautiful. Only thing it is super short so I wore with leggings otherwise would have flashed everyone. Still got a ton of compliments.

Gorgeous!!! I felt and looked like a million bucks!
I tried this dress on in the store and immediately fell in love. The details are gorgeous and the skirt is cute and flirty. I wish i could keep but have very few places to wear this for the price.

Took it back bc too tight.
I didn't wear it to the wedding bc it was too tight but also fairly risque for a church based ceremony. It was really pretty though and i would wear the size up for another event.

Fit not flattering
I ultimately didn't wear this dress bc it was not flattering on my body and made me look bigger than i am. Probably in part due the material and partly bc it is so bulky on top. Was very disappointed.

I loved the flirty skirt and the material was high quality. Unfortunately, it was really tight in the arms and wish the sleeves were longer. Good winter going out dress bc very warm.

This dress is gorgeous and fit perfectly. Unfortunately, it arrived with a rip under the arm so I wasn't able to wear it.

Too small - order a size up
The dress was very sexy but way too tight. I would suggest ordering a size up. Also, the hem - at least on my dress - was a little wonky where it met with the lining.

Very sexy and memorable dress!
I wore this dress for a wedding rehearsal in Mexico and was perfectly appropriate for this more casual event. The dress fit like a glove - the material had some stretch and was thick enough to be forgiving. Unlike other strapless dresses I've worn in the past, I didn't have to tug up the top more than a few times throughout the evening. I loved the length and the slit was sexy, but not too high. The color was very pretty and I paired it with really sexy red heels, though it could probably go well with any number of colors.

Perfect dress for beach wedding in Mexico
I wanted something that was not super formal, but also colorful and appropriate for a destination beach wedding. This dress fit the bill perfectly. It was a thick scuba material that flattered my body and didn't get dirty in the beachy environment. It was also stretchy enough to comfortably dance in and a fun, colorful print. The peek-a-boo cutout in the stomach area was a great touch and overall felt very pretty. My one critique of the dress was that it didn't have a zipper and was touch to get in and out of. I would definitely recommend fixing hair AFTER you put it on.

Fantastic dress that is very forgiving
I love everything about this dress - It is fitted in the waist, but has a full, flirty skirt. It is a neat pattern and the material is a heavy knit - not great for summer, but perfect for winter. You could also wear a long-sleeve shirt/blouse underneath and the material is thick enough it wouldn't show any bulges. The dress overall is actually quite heavy on the hanger, but doesn't feel heavy on. I wore this with boots and black tights for work, but could easily put on cute heels for a night out (which I intend to do this evening). I also love that it hits my knee perfectly - as a 5'10'' girl it is hard to find that in a dress. Fantastic dress and I think it would work for just about anyone!

The most elegant dress I've ever worn!!!
I have never had so many compliments on a dress before! When it arrived, I thought there would be no way it would fit me. Thankfully, it fit like a glove! It showed off my curves, while still being modest. I loved the cutout in the back and it was high enough to still wear a strapless bra. I ordered a long because I'm 5'10'' but it just barely hit the ground. I ended up wearing flats (which were far more comfortable anyway) so it actually worked out. Some people complained about the sequins rubbing under their arms, but they didn't bother me at all. Definitely get this dress!!! It is a showstopper!!!

Beautiful fitted dress for workplace or nice date
I am usually a size 10 but ordered a size up due to reviews and thankful I did! The dress was perfect on top though a little looser around the hips. I'm also 5'10'' so it was nice to have a dress that was the perfect length and fit well in the sleeve area. One critique - the neckline is a little constricting, so you need to be careful about how you sit. Overall, liked the dress and would likely rent again for a conference.

Hugs every curve... in a good way!
I love, love, love this dress. It was very fun and unique from the fabric type and pattern, all the way to the cutouts in the waist. I loved the length which made it still seem more classy and the thick material was stretchy and forgiving. I would definitely rent again!

Fantastic dress for NYE Gatsby Ball
I was invited to a last minute Gatsby NYE Ball and had no idea what to wear. I went into a RTR store and the staff recommended this dress - it was perfect! I felt very comfortable and classy all evening. I received many compliments throughout the evening and it was the only dress of its kind in a sea of black flapper dresses. It isn't easy to tell from the picture but there are light purple colors in the fabric that make the gold pop. There is a built in bra, but doesn't offer much support, and thankfully there was enough room in the top that I could fit a strapless bra underneath. Overall the dress fit great in the waist, but was a little loose in the bust area. Overall, I would give it an A+!

This dress was stunning!
This dress definitely hugged my curves and was sexy, but still very classy. The lace detail was beautiful and everything about this dress was very well made. One note of caution, the hook in the back of the neck tends to get caught on the lace, so just be careful when taking off and putting on. One of my favorite RTR looks to date!
