Stunning!
Loved the fit and feel of this dress! Felt gorgeous all night! It was a bit snug on top, but the velvet straps and ribbon hid anything that spilled over a little :) The gold shimmers in the most beautiful way! Perfect for a garden party themed gala.

Such a Fun Top!
Such a fun top to wear to a Master's party! The sleeves are dramatic in the best way. The material is thick and heavy, so I'm glad the party was indoors. Received so many compliments!

Fun Black Dress
Liked this one, didn't love. The material was very comfortable and had plenty of stretch, although I found myself pulling the skirt down constantly because it kept riding up. I liked the amount of coverage in the front for a work event, but that the back still added some fun to it!

Nice work pant
The fit at the waist was slightly tight. Loved the wide barrel leg. The material is lightweight and definitely more charcoal gray than black.

Cute & Pretty
Wore for dinner on Valentine's Day. Great length- didn't feel too short. The long sleeves with the deep V neckline and cutouts created a great balance.

Loved these! Fit was snug, but comfortable. The flare added such an amazing shape! Perfect length to wear with heels. Didn't want to take these off!

Loved how light and comfortable this dress was. Wore it to the WM Phoenix Open on a day I was with both work colleagues and friends. Great dress for the occasion. Ran a tad long, but that made it even more work appropriate.

Such a fun top!
This was such a fun top to wear for my birthday! Wish I could wear it everyday! Felt cute but still supportive. Loved the cutout on the front and the bow in the back!

Loved the shape!
Really loved wearing this dress! The smocking on the midsection gave the perfect waist shape while still being so comfortable. The feminine skirt and cinched waist balances the utility rolled sleeves and collar perfectly. Such a great fall transition dress. Loved the color- didn’t show up great in my photo- it is a much richer green- more like the listing image color!

Well-made, elevated basic
Really liked the material of this dress- no wrinkles throughout the day and it really kept its shape! I liked the small detailing under the bust and on the ribcage, but it caused the dress to pucker there slightly. Flattering, feminine and modest enough for work.

Perfect fit!
I absolutely loved this dress and the way I felt wearing it! The buttons are functional snaps all the way down. The waist was tight and gave me the perfect shape. Loved the material- no gaping between the snaps and no wrinkling! Appreciated the balance of modest enough for work with the sleeves, but feminine in the skirt shape and length. Skirt hit at a great length on me at 5’3”. Made me want to try all Maje dresses- Really considered purchasing!

Gorgeous
Loved this dress! The color and cut are stunning. So many compliments wearing this. Loved the tie detail! The knit material makes this extremely comfortable while still looking so polished. The fabric does crease and wrinkle easily, which I was a little surprised by with the knit, but the cut and gorgeous light blue made up for it. Great length- not too short!

Cute and Springy
Loved this dress! I received so many compliments- most people thought it was a skirt and top. Not a whole lot of stretch, which helped keep its shape. The sleeves and length on me made for a great work dress.

Showstopper Party Dress!
I wore this to a charity Casino Night. The 8 fit pretty true to size, but a bit snug for this event. I sized up so that I wouldn't need to pull it down throughout the night. It was surprisingly comfortable. There are fabric stripes down the sides, so no sequin scratches on your arms! The sequins are much more green than the model photo- "mermaid" was the most common comment people made. Only con was that there are blocks of slightly different color sequins towards the bottom, but it was hardly noticeable when I was wearing it. Loved wearing such a fun dress that people are still talking about!

Eye catching and cool!
These earring were great! I couldn't wait to wear them so I put them on with a casual outfit the day before the event I rented them for. Both times I wore them I received multiple compliments! They are small enough to be a cool addition to a casual outfit and just enough color and sparkle to jazz up a party dress. I wore these with the Shoshanna Otherworldly Sheath and the green matched perfectly. Definitely wanted to keep them!

Beautiful color, runs small
The dress is beautiful! But I found it very small and short for me. I could tell that even in another size up, I wouldn't have been able to lift my arms without the dress riding up. Bummer because it is a gorgeous color purple! I had to return both the 6 and the 8. RTR is awesome and offered to overnight another dress, though!

I received so many compliments as I walked through Vegas-the city where everyone is wearing sequins!
The dress fit beautifully! I went to the RTR shop at the Cosmopolitan and LOVED the experience there. A friend and I sipped champagne while we looked around and waited to try our favorite picks. The stylists were so friendly and helpful. The dress has a nice lining, so the sequins didn't itch or hurt. I loved the long sleeves and that really added something special in a sea of sequin and glitter dresses. The dress is MUCH more silver and bright in person, although it does photograph darker. You have the option of going silver or gold with accessories and shoes. LOVED it!!

Perfect dress for so many occasions!
After reading the reviews, I wasn't sure which size to go with- Thank god I was able to get both! I uausally wear a M but ended up going with the S becaue the M was a bit too loose and kept falling too far down because of the weight of the dress. The S was a snug fit but still so comfortable to wear all night! It is a gorgeous dress that can be styled so many ways! The sequins are bronze and navy, but look black or silver depending on the light, with black beading. I wore it to a Great Gatsby party on night one and then loved it so much that I restyled it as a skirt to wear to work a couple days later!

Way too small
I rented a S and M- I usually wear a size 4/6. Neither fit on the bottom. The top was perfect and flirty in both sizes but the bottom was so short and tight! The fit was too inappropriate and uncomfortable for the party I was attending so I didn't end up wearing it. The dress was very pretty on top, though! I wish I had a smaller behind to pull it off :) Well made-I was surprised it was so heavy!

Getting called "Gorgeous" throughout the day/evening and being asked if the dress was made specifically for me in NYC! -LOVED it!
This dress was unbelievable! I wore it to my boyfriend's brother's wedding where my boyfriend was the best man. I knew I would be in some family photos and wanted to look glamorous and chic (the wedding was in Iowa but I am living in greater New York City area ;) ) The cut was great- maybe a tad long for my height (5'2") It had the perfect amount of sexy with the back cutouts. The stretch was perfect to hide that certain tummy pouch most of us have and was so comfortable to dance in! I did end the night with scratches on my arms from the seqiuns, but that was kind of expected and I loved the dress so much it didn't matter! I received endless compliments on the dress, hundreds of comments on the pictures and am still hearing about how gorgeous it was! My boyfriend's little brother even told his mom I looked really gorgeous- which says a lot coming from a young teen boy!! Overall-BEST dress I could have worn on this occasion and fit every requirement for my wedding attire expectations!

Great stylist surprise! Loved them so much and they could go with almost anything. They gold didn't exactly match the dress and I wore my hair down, so they only peeked through. Wish I could have shown them off more!
