Little to no stretch.
In an interesting turn of events, the red dress I originally reserved was not available. The RTR stylist sent me this one instead. While it was a little long, I am glad they sent the size 6 because there was no way I'd fit in a 4, which is my usual dress size. The fabric has no stretch and it wrinkles easily. I was pleasantly surprised on the fit. I got compliments all night.

Wedding welcome cocktail dress!
This dress was a hit! I wore it to a fun welcome cocktail at a Miami rooftop. The material is a little thick, but I was not hot. I wore the equivalent to a size 6 and felt comfortable. The next size down would have been a little tighter and I honestly wanted to eat and drink without having to worry about my stomach sticking out. Loved this dress! Would definitely rent again.

Nice dress, but I didn't love how it fit on me.
I ordered the 4 and 6; wore the 6. I had to wear spanx because the material accentuated every single bump. Every. Single. One. I liked the color and while it was a little long, I was comfortable. For reference, I am 5'2" and 130 lbs.

Lots of compliments!
I tend to stay away from lighter colors, but this dress was a hit! Ordered sizes 4 & 6; wore the 6. There was a significant sizing difference. The size 4 would not zip up completely (perfect length for 5'2") and the size 6 was almost a little too roomy (and long) for my taste. I wore spanx to flatten out some unforgiving bumps. It has a rubber lining on the chest area, which helped it stay put. Overall a comfortable dress worn to a summer wedding.

So many compliments; runs long!
I ordered 4R and 6R; wore the 4R. The zipper was quite challenging. The dress runs long. I was wearing 4" heels and was still dragging it. I am short too (5'2") so I am not new to dragging long dresses, haha. Regardless, everybody loved it, it was comfortable, and it had pockets! SOLD.

Loved this dress!
Ordered this dress in Small and Medium because I wasn't sure which one was going to fit best. While the Medium was fine, the Small fit like a glove so I went with Small. I am 5'2" 128 lbs.
