Great dress!
I wore this to an outdoor black tie optional wedding and it was gorgeous. I live in South Carolina and it gets hot in June and the cotton was perfectly breathable. I also have a larger chest and there was enough support to go braless. The only thing I would say to consider is because it’s cotton, it does stretch out a bit as the night went on. Other wise it was perfect.

It was my backup and I'm so glad I ordered it
I got so many compliments on this dress. The color is a beautiful dark eggplant, definitely still felt neutral. The lace was beautiful (although a bit itchy). Length was perfect -- I'm 5'8" and did get the long. The back of the dress has a bit of a train which is fun. The fit was a little loose, if they had had it in my usual size it would have been perfect but I would never complain about having a little wiggle room. Definitely true to size. Recommend!!!!

Beautiful color
Wore this dress for a wedding. Fit was tight in the bust/ribs...but that is a common problem for me since I am 36DD+ . Loved the pockets and lace detail at the neckline.

Not for the busty
I rented this as a back up dress so it arrived last minute. I tried it on and was not able to zip it past my bust (36DD). Had to improvise and make it a keyhole back utilizing the hook/eye closure at the top and zipping it to the top of the fabric waistband. It was certainly not ideal but I didn't have any options. The dress itself was a beautiful color and actually, another girl at the wedding was wearing the same one in blue...looked amazing on her. It is just not meant to fit ladies with large busts..even with the rigged up back, the cut made me look very top heavy/broad shouldered. All that being said, RTW customer service is beyond spectacular and I will 100% be renting again in the future!!!

Too short
I so badly wanted to love this gown but it was too short. I ordered a long and it still hit at my ankles with bare feet. Such a great dress, but just make sure you are less than 5'5"

Loved!!
This dress was great! Wore it for a rehearsal party and it was fun against a background of lace and black. The bust fit perfectly and I am very top heavy. Material is pretty thick so although I didn't wear special undergarmets, it would allow for such. Length hit mid thigh (I'm 5'8") overall a great dress

Super short
This dress was way too short for me to wear to a wedding weekend event. It is a fun dress but couldn't pull it off. Customer service is beyond amazing, just by the way!
