Short and show stopping
It was a bit looser at the top that I imagined. I was able to pull up the adjustable straps to where you could barely see the top of my strapless bra. We tried to pen my bra to the dress but the fabrics were just too thick. The minute we walked into the restaurant my friends and I heard people saying how much they love the dress!

Stand out LBD!
I loves the rich details of this dress. I felt fabulous and elegant wearing it. My only complaint is that the hook at the back closure did open a few times even when I tried to bend the hook closed tightly.

I could have worn the 10 comfortably but felt it was too big in the top so I wore the 8 and just couldn't zip it all the way comfortably. Like other girls said, the overlay did cover any "secrets" well. The sequins did snag a few times but nothing terrible. Really liked this dress and got great compliments.

Perfectly posh
I rented this jumpsuit for dinner and night out with my husband for my 30th birthday. The long sleeve/ long pant was perfect for a cold winter evening. I paired with a blanket scarf and actually wore booties to keep my feet warm and it looked great (I was worried) lol. The jumpsuit material does wrinkle easily so after the taxi ride to the restaurant I looked like a wrinkled mess. :/ The fit was true to size and the jumpsuit was rather comfortable!

Haute and hip for mommy to be!
Again, another successful customer experience. I asked a stylist to send me "bump friendly" dresses for an evening wedding. I fell in love with the unique bell sleeves and otherwise simplicity of this dress. I didn't have much of an issue with the key hole flipping out after I starched and lightly ironed it. Only (small) issue I had, was serving myself food from the buffet- I had to be super cautious my sleeves weren't getting in all the grub! The medium fit great over my then, 6 months preggo, 158 lb frame. I paired with Loren Hope statement earrings and a big ring.

So classy!
At 15 weeks pregnant, I knew I could probably get away with an empire waist, A-line to "hide" my bump a bit since it hasn't been made "Facebook official" lol! This dress was perfect. I got plenty compliments and I loved the fit. I only wish it had pockets but the front neckline zipper adds a touch of fun!

Fabulous RTR Service yet again!
I ordered a 6 and 8 weeks before finding out I was pregnant! Hoping the 8 would fit, I didn't change my order. However, it didn't! Eek! RTR service saved me and overnighted the 10 and it was, phew, perfect! The fabric was rich, I felt like a pageant queen and got plenty compliments at the wedding. The bride is a huge Kate Spade fan!

Didn't end up wearing, but pretty
I got this as a second dress but ended up wearing my first pick. I'd say to feel totally comfortable in this dress, you need to be like a size 2 or smaller. Any tummy bulge is totally unattractive and with a low back, it was hard to wear a regular bra. Its a nice dress but very heavy and the ribbing is off putting IMO.

I felt so sexy for my husband on our valentines date night!
The dress was beautiful and in excellent condition. I ended up wearing the eight instead of the six simply because the six was a little tight in the underarm area. For me personally, the 6 and 8 weren't that much different with the exception of the underarm.

I felt radiant!
The beautiful form-fitting dress made me feel sexy the moment I slipped it on. There were a few issues, however. The M slip was too tight and so I wore the L slip with the M dress. I noticed the M dress did have a small hole that i had to sew up before leaving the house :( but the L was too big, so it had to be done. It was completely unnoticeable but what wasn't were the bright white replacement straps on the size L slip! I kept having to tuck them under my bra strap to try and hide them. Also, this dress literally fits like a glove and the slip will rise with a slot of walking/dancing especially. I had to keep pulling the slip down all night. I received so many compliments however, that I believe the uncomfortableness of my Spanx was totally worth it!! :) The most memorable compliments were from total strangers who randomly stopped me. One girl asked if I was wearing Vera Wang!? I paired this gorgeous dress with bright lips, bold earring and chunky bracelet, and nude pumps.
