Cute dress - perfect for a night out in the city!
Roomy in the bust (even at 34C it felt large), very fitted along waist and loose around hips and legs

Beautiful Dress - Size Up if you Have a Large Ribcage
This dress was perfect for my friend's bridal shower. I am usually a size 8 (and have worn size 8 Milly dresses) and I was surprised, and frankly, concerned, when my usual size squeezed me in like a black-and-white sausage. Fortunately I ordered a size 10 as a backup, and I was able to zip it us with ease. I often find that when I need to size up to fit my ribcage that a dress will be loose everywhere else; fortunately, this one was fitted enough to not cause an issue. Overall, a winner!

Tight in Rib Cage - Not a Winner for Me
This dress is cute, and looks very much like the photos. However, I could barely zip it up because it was very tight in the rib cage area. I would not recommend for short-waisted gals (or try sizing up perhaps)!

Cute dress, but a little too tight!
I ended up wearing my backup dress, as the Size 8 was a bit too snug around my rib cage. I have worn this brand many times before, and the dress fortunately looks just like it does on the website! I think I have a larger rib cage, and find it difficult to wear dresses that don't have any give in the "upper waist" area, so even though it "fit," it wasn't comfortable enough to wear for an afternoon.

This dress is for girls not afraid to show off some cleavage!
I had rented this dress after consulting with a RTR stylist for my wedding rehearsal dinner. The dress was much more yellow than I expected from the picture, which I thought appeared off-white. True to the bandage dress standard, this dress is very clingy. I would not have minded the shape so much except that there was way too much cleavage for it to be appropriate for a family-friendly event (and to be honest, anything outside the house!) Nice dress but not for me!
