Beautiful dress
I LOVED this dress and I got tons of compliments all day long. The only thing is I am short and curvy. I think it worked better with my body with a belt, so I wore one.

So sophisticated
This does run very tiny in the waist, but I was lucky enough to be able to zip it up. I LOVE this skirt. It's the perfect fullness and length. It's cozy and perfect for a wintery work day. I felt so classic and got lots of compliments.

Didn't work with my body type
I'm short and curvy, and I think this just works better for taller, more slender people. I was surprised that the detail was actual grommets. I thought it was just a pattern on the dress. I tried this through my unlimited. I rented a small, but maybe an XS would have worked a little better.

Beautiful but maybe for a smaller chest
I have a larger bust and it made this beautiful top fit a bit tight. A medium may have been better though it would probably have been much longer in the arms and torso, so I don't know. It's really a unique piece and beautiful in person. I wore it to work.

Didn't feel fabulous
I was really excited about this dress, but I am curvy and in the process of working off a couple of holiday pounds, so I just wasn't feeling good about myself in this dress. I needed some major spanx to pull it off. It also was really long on me. The medium fit better overall, but came down past my knees. I just would rather try this dress again when I'm feeling better about my bod! :)

Very fitted at waist
I rented for a party where I wasn't sure of how casual vs. how dressy to be, and I think this would have been a good fit for that. I usually fit into a 4 just fine, but a small wouldn't zip (I am a 32E though, so I think I was expecting that). I would have gone with a medium for backup, but it wasn't available. The length was at about mid-thigh for me. I will say the buttons are annoyingly stubborn. Otherwise, really cute dress in person!

Wanted to keep these!
These are subtle, yet I got tons of compliments on them. I wish I didn't have to return them! There are three holes to insert the earring through, so you can adjust to fit to your ear. The only thing is they are actually a bit difficult to get on, because you're having to insert the earring through a tiny little hole behind your ear. It helps to have someone help you. I wore them all weekend long.

Didn't want to return this!
It runs a bit large, though that is the fit really. I only got one size, but I would have liked to try on the XS. The small worked though for running around in. I LOVED this coat. It's so chic and warm. It did arrive with one of the buttons on its last thread, but otherwise in good condition. I want to go buy it!

Cute and roomy!
This solidified that I want to invest in one of these bags. I used it for Thanksgiving weekend and it was perfect for running around in. The bag felt brand new when I started using it. The straps did get a little bent in the shipping process. Overall, I loved it!

Gorgeous dress
I loved this dress. It does run small, so definitely size up. The skirt is beautifully full and it has pockets! I wore it for a gala that I had to help coordinate, so I kept a radio in the pockets along with other things I needed to keep on me. It was tasteful for a work function but unique enough to stand out. A couple of things bothered me though: the zipper was REALLY tough to get up. It hit a snag on both dresses and I actually had to add a tiny drop of oil just to get it up. For the quality of the dress, (and the retail price), this bummed me out.

Cute, but arrived damaged
These were very cute and a classic yet bold touch to a formal outfit. But one of the gems was missing when I got it. It wasn't noticeable though, so I still wore it.

classy with some edge
I loved this dress! I got tons of compliments. It is of wonderful quality and it worked really well for a black tie event. I LOVED the black sequins on top. The bottom of the dress looks a bit more dark/taupey in person. There weren't any reviews when I ordered it, so I tried my best guess on other Halston Heritage gowns and sized up. But this does run a bit larger and while the 4 (my usual size) fit, I would have liked to try on the 2. The 4 ran just slightly too big, but it wasn't noticeable. I'm 5'2" and it hit at my knee. I would absolutely recommend this dress!

Perfect amount of glam
These added the perfect sparkle to a formal occasion. They're super light and never felt heavy during the night. My only complaint is that some parts of the earrings got flipped around and I had to fix them a few times throughout the evening. Otherwise I loved these!

bright and beautiful
This was a great dress to wear brunching on shopping while vacationing in LA. It's a short maxi so it worked perfectly for me -- I'm 5'2". I loved the cut outs! The only thing is that it felt like I was carrying around a lot of fabric. I ended up feeling hot and sweaty underneath the dress at points. But it's beautiful. And it's casual enough to wear just to brunch or nice enough to wear to a wedding.

Beautiful skirt, great fit
The 4 was true to size! It's a versatile skirt -- dress it up or down! It's a little transparent so wear the right underwear, but it was perfect for an evening out on vacation.

Super cute, but wouldn't stay on for me
I think my ears are just a bit too small for this. It wouldn't stay on so I couldn't wear it. It is so cute though and if it works for you, it will add a beautiful edge to your outfit.

Really long - was sent as a replacement
RTR sent this to me as a replacement for a romper that wasn't available to ship at the last minute. The 4R is very long - definitely not for someone short. It's also not for someone busty.

Cute, but a bit painful
Two little cuffs come with this. One I couldn't even get on because it was too small. The other I was able to get on, but it was definitely pinching the whole time. That didn't stop me from wearing it all weekend though. It's such a cool look!

I felt beautiful!
I'm actually a 32E, and I was able to wear this dress without a bra, which is usually impossible for me unless the dress has boning or a built-in bra of some sorts. The fabric is sturdy enough and the build of the dress provided just enough lift. The open back is sexy, but the dress itself is tasteful and conservative enough for a family wedding. The ruching cut my body at just the right angles and made me feel super skinny. The color was a beautiful bright pink. I got lots of compliments and I felt amazing. I highly recommend this dress!
