Nice materials, runs small
Felt nice but I looked like a sausage in it and did not wear sadly.

Extremely short, tight
Didn't wear. Barely got it on (could not breathe) and should have sized up (RTR didn't suggest), but not sure I would have worn it anyway, b/c it barely covered my butt. I would not have been able to sit down in this dress.

Flattering work top
Not sure why ppl said this runs small. I ended up with a L instead of my usual M and I was swimming in it (the arm holes especially). I still wore it to work with a cardigan on top and loved the fun button detail and cut. It's a nice thick material as well.

Very skinny fit
Sad to say I couldn't wear it b/c it looked beautiful. I couldn't close the buttons on the dress and the arms were so tight I wouldn't have been able to move in that dress at all. I thought perhaps I gained weight but the other options were true to the reviews. Definitely size up if you have athletic arms

Great look
If you have muscular arms, this may be tight in the arms for you. There is no stretch in this dress. I'm usually an 8/M and the dress fit I wasn't super-comfortable in it running around with kids.

Strange sizing
Took everyone's advice and sized up, but they're huge on top. The legs fit fine, but the belly part is gaping and not touching my stomach. Perhaps these will be better for the third trimester. Currently 16 weeks.

Great standing, and fit the first trimester bump well, but they were too low rise to sit in! Got flashbacks of my life in high school, constantly pulling them up

Runs very small and short
I received the M, but now I see the L was suggested to me for good reason. I could barely button up the top and breath at the same time, so I did not wear this. Additionally, had I worn it, my belly would have been hanging out (under my belly button). It was very short. I'm usually a M / 8. The fabric is otherwise nice and looks cute.

Height: 5' 6"

Bust: 34D
Short and flirty
This dress is sexy but a bit flimsy, but for the right occasion can work. It's a bit see thru so you'll have to wear pasties or a sticky bra (very low back) and nude panties. It's also very flowy and SHORT in the back, so if you're outside, beware. I'm 5'6". Because life in the times of Covid require us to be mostly outside, I could not wear this as a normal dress (read wind). I ended up wearing it as a cover up to the beach. The adjustable straps didn't really stay put so a strap kept falling off on me. Overall felt sexy in the dress on a ladies weekend on the beach but would not feel comfortable wearing this out normally.

Lightweight and fun
Loved that the material was very thin, so I didn't overheat in the long sleeve dress. it's a bit short, so I paired it with over the knee boots. I'm a size 8, but I think I could have sized down to a M (wore the L). It was a bit large in the underarm, and loose in the mid-section, which I didn't mind.

Cozy comfy
Really enjoyed lounging around in this one, but it was too big for me. I think a Medium would have been better, but was recommended the L by RTR... The sleeves are long and also loose, so it was hard to push up and stay up, but I did a French tuck with jeans and made do with the loose fit. The material is very loose, so it's not super-warm, and stretches very easily. Not a bad thing, but this is not what will keep you warm in a Chicago winter or anything like that.

Comfortable AND flattering
Loved how thick and cozy this dress was while being understated sexy. The wrap doesn't have a clasp or anything to keep it closed up top, so I threw a tank underneath so I could wear it to work.

Unique shape
Fun but not too ostentatious for work. The sleeves are insanely long, so I had to cuff them once for them to fit me. The shirt overall was large. I went with the RTR recommended size (44). I am normally a size 8.

Looks better on the model?
Decent work dress, but wasn't very flattering on me. Could have use a belt to cinch me in. Also, after sitting in it at my desk, the lap and elbows were very wrinkly and noticeable once I stood up :( The color and pattern were beautiful though and the material felt great.

Trendy and fun
Really enjoyed wearing this fun bold cut. it's very thick and warm but is obviously cropped so your belly can be exposed. I decided to wear it with higher waisted jeans and loved the look for casual weekend vibes. tried it with a tank underneath and it looked frumpy so wasn't able to pull it off again.

Subtly unique shape
Loved the unique shape of the "dress shirt" for work. the zipper sleeves are a bit tight so I left them unzipped. I do have big wrists though ;) Loved the color and fun elements of the whole thing. Also left the bow at the neck untied and hanging, but didn't mind it tied either.

Loved this top for work and going out after. Was cool without being too much. It definitely ran large though but I enjoyed the loose fit. 100% could have gone down a size or maybe even two. it was roomy in the arm holes.

Fun shirt
Fun piece that's not exactly cut well for my shape (or maybe anyone) but was quirky and fit the bill for a weekend day time get together. The space for your chest is very small, so if I actually had it pulled down to line up properly, there would have been a lot of skin showing on top. So I left it higher up. It otherwise fit well and the billowy sleeves were so fun.

All shoulders!
This dress was an easy choice for an outdoor casual wedding. The pockets came in handy and loved how it fit, showing off my shoulders. The material doesn't stretch but definitely runs a smidge large. I usually wear a big 6 or 8 and I fit squarely in the 6. Standard strapless bra worked well here.

Vibrant and fun!
Rented this dress for my Flora and Fauna themed birthday party and it was such a hit. The waist was snug (no stretch) and the bust was loose, but it didn't look noticeable from the front. I didn't have time to buy a sticky bra, but the fabric is so thick, I didn't think I needed it. The back straps came off the body a little though. I'm 5'6" and wore 4" heels, and the 8R did not hit the floor, which I was surprised about but not the biggest deal. Has pockets and shows up SO well in evening flash pictures as a bonus.

Sexy sophisticated fun!
Seriously the most elegant dress ever. I got so many compliments all evening for my Black and White birthday party. I didn't think the length (hitting at the calf) would be flattering, since I generally hate how big my calves are, but it hit right below the bigger part, so it actually was pretty flattering. The dress has padding in the top so I rocked braless and it was super comfortable all evening long.

Super classy and sexy
Loved this dress, but rented from the boutique and couldn't size up. I'm usually a size 6 but this dress fit... perhaps a little to snugly. The chest area was a little higher than I wanted and it started to feel a little uncomfortable after several hours in it. Really sexy v cut but long enough to be conservative. Otherwise, I got so many compliments and it was absolutely beautiful.

Slimming comfortable lacey heaven
I tried this on at the RTR studio downtown so sizes were limited. If I had my way, an 8 would have been slightly better in size (I'm not sure I would have fit into the dress two sizes smaller. I usually wear a 6 so I'll say it runs small). However, I still LOVED this dress. The cut outs were super sexy but since the lace was so conservatively cut, it didn't look trashy. Probably b/c of the size, but this dress was SO comfortable. I barely noticed I was wearing it all night and everyone loved it! Normal bra in black and tights worked fine with all of the cut outs.

Flattering and a great fit
Really delicate shimmering material that looks a bit worn from a personal inspection but no one else can tell. Definitely a 'youthful' color and style. In looking at the pictures after, I feel like I went to a sweet sixteen and not a wedding... I'm not sure I'm complaining though. I got my usual 6 and back up 4 and ended up wearing the slightly tight 4 (in the waist... the bust was perfect) b/c the bust of the 6 was gaping a tiny bit. I could have worn the 6 but I felt like the 4 looked better with the fit on top and a more cinched in waist. And it made me sit up straighter and eat less so it was a win win all around. Also I didn't feel like I was pulling this dress up all night.

Fairy tale princess dress!
Everything fit perfectly except, I wish the chest boning wasn't curved so far outward. It would be more flattering if there was more lift instead of 'accommodation' space (I'm not flat, but there was still a bit of a gap). I"m 5'6" and wore 4 in heels and the regular was about 1-2 inches too long, but it made me feel like a fairy princess.

This dress was the perfect option for a summer outdoor wedding! Best dressed for sure!
I'm in between sizes now (6 and 8) and the 6 fit perfectly. the fabric moved so well with me and I did not have to pull it up all evening. It was so flattering in all the right places and I got compliments on it ALL evening.

I'm not accustomed to wearing one-shoulder dresses and don't plan on wearing one again. I probably flashed half the city with my right boob, b/c the dress was cut too low on that side. I couldn't wear a strapless b/c of the cut, so pastie was the only option. The only way to wear it was to slip the left should off a bit. Otherwise, fit decently. Didn't love it. Great colors though.
