Ordered a 12 and the back up 14 was not available. It was very tight, so I ordered 2 replacements. They just weren’t right, so I wore Spanx and squeezed in. The dress was beautiful! Love the color and details. The reviews did mention the fabric did not stretch and it ran a little tight. The size mistake was completely on me! I was sure a 12 would work.

It was an outdoor fall wedding and this dress would work no matter the weather. It was a beautiful color and the dress was well made. I did not use a bra, but adhesive cups would work. The dress was structured enough to hold everything in, but did not feel restrictive. The large worked, but a medium would have been much too tight.

The look is completely 5 star. I only marked it down because of the difficulty zipping and the weight of the dress. The sleeves are amazing (the whole dress is amazing!) I wore this for a celebration of our 20th anniversary, where we renewed our vows. Because there is no give to the fabric, the large was snug, but not restrictive. As I find with many RTR dresses, it was hard to zip. The band of lace beneath the chest is thick and hard to get over. You cannot get in/out of this dress alone! Also, the dress is HEAVY! Not sure what the fabric is, crocheted lace? I love this dress, but once the dancing started it was hot! It is heavy and lined and snug, so it held in heat. Finally, I usually love RTR's customer service, but one week before my event I received an email saying my dress was no longer available and I would receive a backup. After a 20 minute text chat, I was told that there was nothing they could do. I went to the Chicago showroom 3 months before my event to try on and order this specific dress for the vow renewal. I was in disbelief. I called the Chicago store and within 5 minutes the wonderful person had 2 dresses in my size reserved for me. I was thrilled and relieved to receive them as originally planned!

Received the size 10, and the 8 as a back up. Was going to wear the 10, but several sequins were missing along the hem. I wore the 8 and the fabric had plenty of stretch, so it hugged my body nicely anyway. I was able to wear a regular bra, which was great because of my large chest. It did show more cleavage than I usually show. Didn't need Spanx, but they could be helpful to hold in the stomach. It was a little flashy compared to the understated attendees, but I loved it. This would be great for a Christmas party! When I contacted RTR about the sequins, they refunded my money! Great, prompt customer service.
