Order a size up if busty--really cute but tight up top. I had to send back :(
I loved this dress but was so sad I couldn't wear it to our holiday party because it was too small in the chest area. Oh well!

Excellent fit with lots of compliments all night long! Felt like a movie star.
The fit for this dress was perfect, I am normally a 10 or 12 in dresses and this fit all my curves in the right way. The built-in corset is a plus so you don't have to worry about having to wear a weird bra. This went perfectly with a pair of large drop earrings. You will feel sexy and sophisticated all night long, guaranteed! (FYI: The only thing about the particular dress that I had, there was a wire poking out of the bodice that kept scratching/poking my rib cage, I had to put a couple bandaids over it to keep myself from getting super scratched up, but it was an easy fix and I was comfortable for the whole event).

Great fit!
Hugs the body in all the right places. The top section is tricky if you don't have the right kind of bra (strapless, push-up) but overall is a fun dress. I wore this to my best friend's baby shower which was a luau theme. Fit right in! Dress colors are not as vibrant as the photo, but is still really pretty.

Fits great, very thick material. Comfortable and cute!
I wore this dress when I went shopping for my wedding dress with my girlfriends. What a fun day! The material is very soft which made for a comfortable experience while shopping and having lunch etc. The material is really thick, which I did not expect--but it was a pleasant surprise! The skirt length hit right above the knee and is great for my height, 5'5." Plus, I was able to wear my heels and then transitioned to sandals no problem--it did not look weird!! haha. :) . I would recommend this look.

Perfect cocktail/formal dress for evening fundraiser!
I wore this dress for an evening fundraising gala (working the event, was not a guest) and it was a big hit. I got compliments from staff and guests alike. Material was shiny and thick, felt very well made. It was comfortable and easy to move around in--which is good when you're working a nice event but still need to be flexible. Great length for petites!

The chain is pretty small so it will rest right at your neck.
Beautiful colors and was a big hit when I wore it for a holiday party. The chain is a bit short so it doesn't drop very far beyond the base of your neck--so make sure to keep that in mind!

Super cute, great material and comfortable.
I wore this dress for a holiday party and added my own petticoat to it to create some fullness. It was a big hit! Fit like a glove! Highly recommend.

Beautiful dress, little low cut/snug in chest, thin material. But overall gorgeous!
I rented this gown for a formal attire Bridal Shower. I knew it was going to be low-cut going in, but it was definitely very deep! I should have gotten a deep-v bra or pasties. Luckily, I used my sash to help cover up where I felt I was popping out, haha. Overall, the dress was gorgeous and I got so many compliments. Many of my friends now want to use RTR! Definitely is a beautiful evening gown. The material was not as thick as I was expecting either, but it worked out because then I could move around easily and didn't get too warm. You could always add a long petticoat if you want a super full look!

Beautiful earrings, bit muted and not super shiny, but overall very nice.
The earrings were not as shiny/light silver as I had hoped/expected via the website photo--they were a lot darker in tone/color. I wore these for a formal attire Bridal Shower. Nevertheless, it wasn't the end of the world--they are still extremely nice earrings and I got a lot of compliments! Matched perfectly with my formal evening gown.

Awesome color, a bit large around the middle and a little long for petite ladies!
I rented this dress for my bachelorette party which was a "Barbie" themed outing. I ended up not wearing this because it was a bit long on me (I'm 5'5") and the middle section was a bit loose. I probably would have been fine ordering a smaller size, but didn't have the time to get a replacement. It is a BEAUTIFUL dress, very vibrant and fun. I would recommend for slightly taller women and would suggest at least a half/full size smaller than you are used to.

Beautiful earrings!
Earrings fit great and were not too heavy! The pink is a bit muted so keep that in mind--but paired perfectly with a gold necklace and magenta dress I wore for a cocktail party.

This dress was super cute! Fit great and was very comfortable! Bright colors.
I normally wear a size 9-12 and this 12 fit perfectly. It was really comfortable and the colors were very bright. It was a perfect cocktail dress for my "Barbie" themed bachelorette party in Palm Springs! I wore a strapless bra so that straps did not show through the top portion. Everyone loved the dress and I got so many compliments!! Definitely would recommend.
