Great dress! But poor repair on bust.
This dress is great, I ordered a size M and L. The M was just too small, and the L was just too big. Would have worn the large, but the bust had a shoddy repair done (could see the black thread used for the repair) that created an obvious draw-the-eye-right-to-the-nipple effect. SO I wore the medium instead; looked great but felt a little tight in the chest (despite not having any boobs).

Sparkly and sexy
Great dress that is fun and just the right amount of sexy for a winter cocktail party. Fit ran a bit small; given I do have very muscular arms and that was the area that was too small on my size-chart-suggested Medium. Didn’t wear a bra— didn’t need to! Was great to dance in and didn’t ride up too much.

Perfect dress to party away NYE!
Dress fit true to size, but I’d say it runs larger especially if you are hourglass shaped. My waist is rather narrow and the 8 created a bit of bunching above my butt in the back. My backup size was a 10, but a 6 probably would have been tight enough to pull that fabric taught.

Comfortable and cute
The nude slip underneath was a little problematic as I had to slip the straps off my shoulders to achieve the off-shoulder look in the photo. But fit was true to size, and it was very cute and comfortable.

rehearsal dinner
Ignore the viking horns:) comic relief during the wedding rehearsal. Wore this dress for my friend's wedding rehearsal and dinner. Was short, but not horrifyingly so. There was a small tear in the lace on the right thigh, but wasn't noticeable to anyone else. Was easy to move in, and the 8 fit perfectly (no gaping in back, no tape needed). No bra worn, either.

Bridesmaid dress
Loved this dress!! It definitely runs small. I am typically a size 8, and wore a 10 comfortably. Was panicked about fit at the last minute, and ordered an 8 from a different website to have on hand just in case the 10 was too big (RTR did not have an 8 to send me). Both the 8 and 10 fit, and I could barely tell a difference in size. In the end, the 10 was just a little more flattering around the armpit area :) Was perfect for the wedding and danced without issue all night! The dress has a slight stretch that made moving around easy. Didn't wear any type of bra, which worked out just fine.
