A little boob-y but beautiful
This was my backup dress but sadly the zipper on my first choice was broken. I felt like this dress bared a bit more of my chest than I was comfortable doing for a wedding, but the rest was stunning. Tons of compliments. The fabric is very light so even for a summer wedding, the heat wasn't bad in a long dress. Plus, POCKETS!

Zipper is very difficult
Rented my normal size 4, zipper was incredibly difficult to get up, even off me. Ended up not wearing it.

Stunning for formal wedding
I loved this dress for a black tie optional wedding at the end of summer. Got so many compliments. It's super comfortable too.

Really cute, but not for a wedding
I really loved this dress, especially the color; it's a really rich blue green. Unfortunately, it hung pretty low on my and it was just a bit too edgy for a family wedding. It fit true to size and was very comfortable. And it has pockets!!

Cute retro dress
This dress has a fun retro vibe to it. The material is much heavier that I was expecting and, as some others have pointed out, is a bit worn down. But it still looks really cute on and the pockets are fantastic.

Fun dress, very full skirt
This was a very cute and fun dress to wear for a cocktail party. The zip front gives it a different look and lets you play with how flirty the dress looks. I probably could have gone down one size to make the body a bit tighter and more flattering. The skirt is VERY full and sticks out a lot, so beware if you're a more hippy girl like me!

Cute flowy dress, a bit long
The dress hit much lower on me than on the model, a bit of an awkward length. But it was really light and flowy, perfect for the summer wedding I wore it to. The neckline is a bit low cut, so make sure you are comfortable with that!

Super Cute for Wine Release
I wore these for a harvest-themed wine release party and they were so perfect - I got tons of compliments on them. They are clip on, so they did start to hurt towards the end of the night. Also, the clip itself is higher up the earring than I expected so they hung down lower than I had hoped. Still, very cute.

So Many Complements
Wore this to an upscale wine release party and got a ton of great complements. It fit really well - fitted in the top but open on the bottom for easy movement. I also loved the deep pockets!

Perfect accent to a muted dress
I wore this with a simple black dress to a formal party and it really kicked it up to the next level. The necklace wasn't over the top but was the perfect accent.

Beautiful dress but ultimately too flashy for me
The dress was definitely a stunner and my friends begged me to wear it to a formal New Years Eve party. However, I ultimately decided to go with a more understated dress. While the dress is stretchy and either the 2 or 4 could have worked, I found the slightly larger 4 to lay better and would have gone with that had I worn it.

Super comfortable but fancy
I wore this dress for a formal New Years Eve party and it was absolutely perfect. The dress was beautifully form fitting (I opted for the XS over the S because it looked a little better tighter). The stretchy fabric was also incredibly comfortable, while still looking upscale. It was a huge hit.

Perfect finishing touch
The RTR stylists picked out the perfect accessories for my outfit. I got two and they did a great job of picking out a bracelet and a pair of earrings that were not only great pieces on their own, but also matched BOTH my dress choices perfectly. I was beyond impressed.

Amazing Color
The color on the model is spot on - it's such a terrific green. It fits the same way it looks on the webpage too - tight and fitted in the bottom and baggy up top. I found it looked very flattering. The gold trim on the top looks a bit tackier in real life - it's more of a dull bronze and is made up of little sequins layered on like shingles.

Perfect Accent
This fit perfectly - I have slender wrists so hard bracelets sometimes end up sliding all over my arm, but this fit very well. It also is surprisingly light weight.

Great Accent
Subtle but very nice, worked perfectly with my dress. Size was as expected - big enough that they are clearly dangly earrings but not so big that they pull on my ears or look ridiculous.

AMAZING
This dress was fantastic - it fit so well and the bow at the waist made me look amazing. I got so many compliments all night long. The material isn't too stretchy, but the fit is good. The sequins tended to catch on things but I forgave that because it just looked so darn good!

Very Cute
I wore this dress to a New Years party and it was perfect: silver without being cliche sparkly, dressy while still being casual enough to fit in with my friends in jeans. It has almost a Grecian toga style to it. The dress fit very true to size throughout and I was pleased with it. The way it lays also hides any tummy pudge you may be worried about. The only annoying thing is that it has little cloth cups inside the chest that would typical just round you out and cover up any nips, but the cups had gotten folded up inside the dress and there was no way to get to them to fix it, so I had somewhat noticable lumps.
