Comfortable and elegant.
Cape like sleeves were interesting. It fit well, true to size with room, flouce at the bottom is a little weird but I did like the dress and it photographs nice. The fabric is heavy and I wore it for an inside graduation. I would not want to wear it in the sun, it would be too warm. I wore a long necklace which broke up the heaviness of the dress.

Beautiful color
I wore this to a black tie event. It is comfortable and flows. The waist has no stretch so it was a bit tight there. I am typically a size 12 in a dress with a midriff that is more than I would like. I had to pin the neckline as there is a button but it was a bit too low for me and it did not feel secure. I am 5'2" and it did drag a bit with about a 2.5 inch heel. the slit is a nice addition and it is not too high. Overall a beautiful color, conservative dress with some fun. It stood out in a sea of black gowns.

Stunning
This dress was very pretty, lovely dark lavender color. The back is a bit low so it may be difficult to wear a regular bra. It has some stretch and actually smooths the ripples, but the waist was tight on me but I am thick. It was a bit long but I am short.

Gorgeous
This dress is so beautiful. It looks forgiving but is really tight in the bodice which is a bustier with boning. You likely would not need a bra because of the corset, but there is no stretch. It was long for me at 5'2" The sequins and beading are gorgeous, but I could see that they may run the underside of your arms. This is a very special gown but you need to be trim to get into it.

Beautiful
I could not wear this dress because it was a bit tight in the bust and made the girls too much the center of attention, but this is a beautiful dress. The lace inset is sheer, but with either a black or nude bra you really could not see anything. There is not a lot of stretch. It is also on the short side which was good for me at 5'2" but much taller it would be difficult to wear a heel.

elegant and comfortable
Got this as a replacement, It is very forgiving. Comfortable room in the chest and waist. ( I am an apple) 38-32-28, I am also 5'2'' and it was just a tad long with 4 inch heels. It has a small train that drags so I had to be careful. The curves accentuate the bust but also thin. I would rent this again though if it came in a 12, I would try that size

So easy
I rented this dress for an Easter buffet. I wore the 12 but could have worn the 10. The 10 was just a bit tighter in the chest for me. It is so easy to wear as it has lots of give and is very comfortable. It gapped a little at the sides and you could see my bra but I wore a little sweater which made it very sweet. Its a pretty blue and and ivory ombre. I have rented the coral version as well. This is a great simple easy to wear dress that looks good on many shapes. the waist is elasticized and the sash which is a nice ribbon is removable and you could substitute a belt instead.

Beautiful deep grape color.
I wore a size 12 in this dress. My waist is thick and it was a bit tight on me but there was a good amount of space in the chest area. The sleeves and length were great. The color is really nice. It is a deep purple concord grape color much nicer than the photo. I wold rent this dress again, though I would slim down in the waist a bit first

Just ok
the color on this dress is beautiful. Just like the picture, but it really hung like a sack on me. the arms were a bit too long and it hit about 2 inches above the knee. It was not flattering on my apple figure. It ran large and was comfortable and easy but it wasn't special enough for me to wear. It is heavy for warm weather.

Curvy girls rejoice
I loved this dress. I am busty and have a thick waist. This dress was perfect, comfortable and forgiving. Color is beautiful. I could have worn the 10 but the 12 was slightly more comfortable in the bust and a brighter color. I am a red head and the orange was a gorgeous sunset color. A statement necklace is a must. Length was just at the knee for me. I would love to buy this dress.

Totally cute
I loved this dress, but it was too fitted in the waist and gapped open. I wish I could have worn it because if was so cute on. It is better for a thin waisted girl.

Very pretty and different
I loved this dress.It does run large in hips and shoulders but the waist is very form fitting. If you are heavy in the waist you may need to size up.There is some give but the back is just low enough to show your bra. it was mid thigh on me and I am only 5'2".

Great dress
This dress is very unique. Fabric is heavy and would be warm. Great for late fall, winter. It has some give in the waist because of pleats so can hide a little bit of belly. It has pockets which is awesome. The sleeves were very form fitting. The side cut out shows a bra strap so a convertible or stapless is necessary. The center cutout is very low and shows significant cleavage on a busty girl. I was going to a conservative event so I could not wear it because of that.

Missing zipper!
This dress was very sophisticated, shoulder area was very large with prominent pads. Runs pretty long, but I am only 5'2". It is heavy fabric. I was my backup dress and I would have worn it but the entire zipper was missing. I was a bit disappointed in the quality control of RTR because of this. But, customer service overnighted me 2 other dresses so the day was saved!

Very comfortable, but it was quite short. Even though I am petite, it was too short to wear comfortably to the event.
