Only okay
This was not as forgiving as I'd hoped and it was only sorta cute. Nothing to make anyone say 'that's a cool outfit'. The spot where the top and bottom meet hit my body weird creating a look of a gut. If I pulled it up higher (at my natural waist) it would have solved that problem but created another with the slit riding really high. Just could not get it to sit properly on me to be comfortable.

Totally fun and holds more than you'd expect.
Oh.my.god. I loved this bag. It's such a fun accessory. The print is funky and a great statement piece and it goes with a lot of looks. It fit a surprising amount of things while not being a large bag. I was able to get my wallet, iphone, several make ups, sunglasses and more! I wanted to keep it but it was out of my price range. Definite recommend. Felt fashion-forward and proud toting it around. Received many compliments.

Snug, but beautiful
A touch snug on ample bust and booty. The top stretched across tightly giving a slight uni-boob effect. And the bottom was really short and tights were necessary. The material is of excellent quality and it looks and feels very luxurious. Just not the right fit.

Runs small, not great for ample bottoms.
This item runs a bit small and is not very forgiving. No stretch. I couldn't get it over my rear. the lining inside prevented it from fitting and I had to return.

Eye-Popping Color - Great Silouhette
Wore this to work to feel fabulous, it worked. The color is stunning and the cut is flattering for my hourglass figure. The fabric is mesh and on the light side but it looked nice on and was comfortable, just not particularly warm to wear in VT in December.

Sparkly and Festive Dress for NYE!
Annually I rent a dress from RTR for NYE. Something sparkly! This did not disappoint. Tons of compliments and I felt comfortable in this dress. There is weight to the dress and the long sleeves and hemline make this perfect for NYE in cold places (I live in VT) it was -8 on NYE and I was comfortable in this dress.

Oh my god I loved this jumpsuit. I felt amazing in it. It has excellent stretch, it runs true to size, hugs curves, and feels just super sexy. It made me feel confident and comfortable. I wore it to a work event and got tons of compliments. Very flattering and worked well on my curvy figure. I want to own this.

Sexy, curve hugging dress.
This dress was a bit snug, though I blame that more on my forgetting to work out than anything else. It has just enough stretch to be comfortable and enough structure to be a bit more forgiving. I wore this for my cousin's wedding and received many compliments. I did wear spanx to slim myself a bit and I did find myself fiddling with the top on the strapless side as the lining kept peeking out. I'm a curvy gal, with a large bust (36F) and was able to just pull this dress off. Time to hit the gym. It is a lovely dress, very good quality, and surprisingly comfortable.

Fun and Sparkly dress for NYE
The dress was very fun and sparkly, perfect for NYE. Loved the Art Deco style and long sleeves (it's cold in VT) but it did run small. I ordered the Large and Extra Large and the Large was too tight and sleeves too short. But a fun party dress.

Gothic Gown
I loved this dress. I decided that for Halloween it would be nice to wear a gown because sadly, I rarely have the occasion to wear a gown. This was perfect and had a very gothic, "Penny Dreadful", victorian-esque look to it. Paired with chandelier earrings, an up-do, and a fake scar on my neck and I was appropriately spooky. I ordered the 12P and the 10R as my back-up size. I ended up wearing the 10 though the 12 fit fine, could've gone with either. It's quite long and billowy, I'm not tall and even with heels I had to hoist the skirts up to navigate stairs without killing myself. But it's a beautiful gown and it was fun and comfortable to wear. Also, as a gal with large breasts (36FF) this dress fit them but definitely accentuated them, which I don't mind. Got 'em, flaunt 'em.

Lovely and Comfortable
This dress was very cute and comfortable. I wore it to my nieces baptism in September. There is a lot of heft to the skirt and the material at the top of the dress is thick so it's nice in weather that isn't too warm. It has pockets so that's fun. It fit well and runs true to size.

Not For Busty Girls
I did not wear this dress. It's not the dresses fault, I read the reviews and thought I'd try it anyway, silly me. The plunge is very deep so if you have a large chest, you can't wear a bra with it, also because the lace cut-outs. No bra is not really an option for me at 36GG. It was a beautiful gown but not made for my body.

Perfect dress for my sister's baby shower.
I wore this dress for my sister's baby shower at the end of April. Perfect dress for that type of event and good for early Spring when it's not too warm out yet. The fabric was thick (good quality) and stretchy (thankfully) but could get too hot if the weather was over 75 degrees. It was a bit snug, but more because I've gained a little extra weight recently, so I would say it runs true to size. Hugged all my curves and I received many compliments.

Beautiful, classy, elegant show-stopper
I wore this out for a belated Valentine's date with my husband in Montreal. It fit perfectly, very comfortable and elegant. Perfect for a girl with curves and perfect to wear in colder weather. The folded detail on the front adds interest. I got many compliments and felt sexy but sophisticated in it. True to size and forgiving fit.

Simple, sexy, and great on a cold night
This dress does not photograph well. It's a deep forest green that doesn't show up in photos. The silhouette is simple, slight boat neck, form fitting, long sleeves (sleeves were a touch short, but I didn't mind because I was able to wear a pretty gold cuff). The exposed zipper and deep V at the back give interest. It's simple and classy and I felt sexy and comfortable in it.

Sexy, Elegant, and Comfortable
This dress was great! Wore it for my birthday dinner date with my husband and got several compliments. The lace added sexiness but was still classy and elegant. It's short but not too much so. It's form fitting in a very flattering way, great for curves. The only thing was that a traditional bra will show through on the lacy shoulder, I wore a strapless which worked, though I had to adjust the dress a few times as the lace cut-out sits high on the waist and rode up my chest a bit but no one could tell (a side effect to having a large bust) - I would rent it again. It's a unique twist on the LBD.

Very pretty, but had some flaws
I got this dress to wear to work but unfortunately it was a bit small. A little tight across my chest, but my chest is large, and it wasn't enough to make me uncomfortable. Unfortunately it was so short that I couldn't bend over without my entire butt being exposed. Even with thick tights it was not appropriate to wear in public. I also have ample booty and the flare design of the skirt was just no match. The worst part though was that the white lining showed, quite a bit of it, so even if it had fit better I wouldn't have been able to wear it.

Too big, couldn't wear it
The dress was too big and another size wasn't available. The sleeves were really long and the shoulder area was baggy. Just didn't quite work. Also the large scale-like sequins wouldn't lie flat and kept poking out at weird angles.

Great party dress! Comfortable, cute, well-made.
Rented this for a Kentucky Derby Party and it was perfect for the occasion. Festive but not over the top. I had rented both the 10 and 12 but the 12 was unavailable so they sent a dress of my choice but the 10 fit and was more festive so that is what I went with. It was super cute and I felt great in it.

It doesn't take much to be dressed up in Vermont, but this dress definitely made New Year's special!
I know, the pictures are dreadful, it was dark and I was drunk but the dress was a hit! Very flattering on curvy figures like mine, especially if you don't mind showing some skin. I probably could have gone with the 10 instead of the 12 but it was unavailable. The 12 fit nicely though. The color is pretty and the weight of the material substantial so you know there is quality. It was very comfortable and the jeweled piece gave just enough sparkle and punch to the dress. Definitely recommend for curvy girls.

Glamorous and Festive
The dress was awesome! Perfect for a night out on New Year's Eve! It was festive, sparkly and fun! I usually wear around a size 10 and the medium was a perfect fit, snug in all the right places, sexy and flattering of a curvy figure. It was comfortable too, easy to move around in! I got lots of compliments and really enjoyed it.

Would've been perfect!
I wanted this dress in a 10 and a 12 to make sure the size would be right. Unfortunately the 10 wasn't available and the 12 was just to big in the sleeves and shoulders, sooooo close, but not quite. The 10, which is my usual size, would've been perfect. A lovely dress though, felt good on my body.

Beautiful but small in the bust!
This was my back up dress if my other one didn't work out, and though it was perfectly beautiful and fit from the waist down the bust was way too small for a chesty lady such as myself. Not sure a larger size would have helped. Just not the right dress for an ample bosom.
