Perfect fit, light and airy on hot night
Wore this to the symphony. I couldn't believe the number of compliments I got on this dress, many from complete strangers. I have a 36-38C chest and the top fit fine and I was comfortable. I carry my weight in my stomach and hips, this dress fit great and I felt great.

Coral Asymmetrical Wrap Dress

Very comfortable, sparkly but not too much
Loved that in this dress I was very comfortable, everything from wearing a standard bra to having pockets. The sequins under the arm are a bit scratchy but I put some heavier hand cream under my arms and it was not a problem. I usually wear a 14 but sometimes can wear a 12. I carry my weight in my hips/belly so this dress was not only forgiving, I ended up wearing the 12 instead of the 14. I have 36/38C chest. The dress is a bit longer than I usually like but I'm only 5'4".

Perfect dress for colder evening at the theatre
Wore this to see a play. I didn't need a sparkly or over the top dress but wanted something a bit dressier and a bit warmer. I usually wear a 12 or 14 in a dress and I knew that if I wore a tank under this I could get away with a 12. The dress is very comfortable (hello wrap dress!) and the fuller skirt definitely dresses it up. Loved it.

Not a great fit for a taller gal
My daughter, 5'7", rented this dress for Homecoming and it didn't work for her. She's a size 6, 32C, and bit shortwaisted, the dress didn't lay properly across her chest. I was puckering - the next size up was too big. The arm holes also seemed a bit snug. When we looked back at the reviews most of the gals were shorter so we thought maybe this isn't a great dress for a taller gal. We had great service and would use RTR again for sure.

Beautiful but not cut for the short waisted
This jacket is gorgeous and supple. It looked just OK on me. I'm short waisted so it hung a bit weird. My daughter who is 5'7" and a size 8 also had the same issue because although she is tall she is all leg. Although I will admit it did look better on her. The arms are snug, so if you have bigger arms consider something thin underneath

Go ahead let people think its yours!
I had this bag as part of my Unlimited program. I got tons of compliments. People loved the color and the quality of the bag is very evident. It is a bit heavy b/c it's so well made but I certainly didn't mind toting it around.

Compliments all night long
I wore this dress to a wedding and received compliments all night long many from strangers. I went with a nude shoe which played up the dress. In fact in the receiving line, one of the bridesmaids even complimented me on the dress. The dress was very comfortable. One thing that I did not like is the loops for hanging the dress don't easily tuck in and I was constantly trying to get them to stay inside the dress.

Really unique dress without being too flashy. I've rented this TWICE
Many thanks to the other reviewer who wore this dress with boots. I totally swiped that idea and it worked out great b/c it was cold and rainy. Sometimes I wear a 12 dress but many times I wear a 14 pant and I wore the 14 in this dress because I carry my weight in my belly and didn't want the dress stretching or drawing attention to that area. It's fitted and flattering dress. Second review YUP, still LOVE this dress. Wore it to a fashion show. I wore the size 12, not a big difference between the 12 and 14. Also wore my grandmother's antique costume jewelry with it.

So many compliments and I was so comfortable
The dress fit perfectly. It was really comfortable, which was great because we went to dinner with a group and there was lots of food! The dress has a nice nude backing to it which make it go well with any nude heel. If you really wanted to amp it up a gold shoe would also be lovely. This dress is fairly heavy, just note, I would not want to be wearing this outside on a warm day.
