Super comfortable!
Loved this sweater. It was warm, and comfortable and helped create lots of variety in my wardrobe. Great staple color!

Classic Kate.
You can't go wrong with Kate Spade. I wore this for attending a Confirmation and for chaperoning a high school prom. The dress is so comfortable, flouncy, and the pattern on the fabric is delicious. The pockets were a bonus. I felt wonderful in this dress.

Unreal.
This skirt is amazing! It photographs super well. It is surprisingly light, flouncy and one of the most fun articles of clothing that I have ever worn. I received so many compliments on it. It was perfect for an afternoon outdoor party. The skirt does run small; I'm a 10/12 and found it to be a little tight. But it is a forgiving silhouette and so worth trying. You won't be sorry!

Runs small
I had this overnighted to chaperone prom- I sized up, but couldn't wear the dress. It didn't fit. I'm a 12, maybe 14 in some brands, but this dress wouldn't zip up at all. The material was gorgeous and I would have loved to wear the dress but it wasn't an option.

Too small.
The dress was way too small in the chest and arms; I couldn't even get it on. I sized up, but this didn't work.

Amazing dress!
I'd wear this every day if I could. I wore this dress multiple times to work, and it was comfortable, breathable and I felt fancy for a drab day at school. This dress is amazing and I wish more were made like this one. The scoop neck made me feel like a ballerina in the best way possible, and the skirt is super fun. The only thing that could possibly make this dress better would be pockets!

Perfect day dress.
I wore this to work with an olive green spring jacket on top. I was a little baggy in the waist but super comfortable. I received a lot of compliments; the dress is conservative enough with its silhouette and flouncy without being overwhelming on a shorter frame. I'm excited to pair this with other pieces in my closet, for sure!

Incredibly cool silhouette. Not work appropriate for tall gals.
This dress popped up when I hit the workwear tab; I don't usually worry about dress length because I'm just over five feet tall- but this dress is short. I wore a camisole underneath, as it is low cut, but would be fine for a night out. The dress shifts a little bit throughout the day, so I had to be careful of readjusting. I think the way the dress is cut in the midsection is really flattering for apple shapes; it conceals the tummy and highlights what semblance of a waistline you might actually have. The hem of the dress flares out into a sort of asymmetrical tulip shape. It's cool- but, I teach high school. I had to calculate my accessories wisely. I wore it with ballet flats. I don't normally do shoulder pads, but these added to the dress; they were fun. The fabric is comfortable and there's a lot of room to experiment with a look, so I'd encourage anyone to try this dress out knowing there might be some issues with length.

Beware- runs small!
I couldn't zip this up; I'm between 8-10 pants usually, and I had the size 12. I was hugely disappointed because the pattern on this fabric is beautifully unique and vibrant. If you don't have hips, this item might be perfect for you!

Obsessed!
Rent this immediately! This dress can be dressed up or down; I wore it out and to work with a cami underneath. It was so comfortable. I'm pretty short, so I rolled out up the sleeves, and the dress fit perfectly. It was perfect for spring, and I'd definitely wear this dress again.

Couldn't wear the item.
This dress was too small in the ribcage. The fabric was beautiful but oddly cut. The sizing was different than a different piece from the same brand I'd rented recently, which was disappointing because I'd been looking forward to renting the item.

Best shirt ever!
I would wear this shirt every day. It is so comfortable and stylish. I received tons of compliments on it. The shirt does run large- I thought the sleeves were a little long. Fabric is breathable, and the cut is classic.

Beautiful dress!
This dress is great for women with larger chests, but it IS droopy. Even with fashion tape, I found myself constantly adjusting throughout the evening. The quality of the garment was great, and I was impressed that the dress was so comfortable.

Memorable dress!
The only reason this dress gets 4 stars instead of 5 is because I didn't receive the backup size that I was supposed to get. I LOVED this dress. The 12 was kind of big, but since I didn't have the 10 I didn't have any options. This dress is classy and super comfortable. It's a little worn (hence the $30 rental) with missing sequins, so if it was a super polished event I probably wouldn't have worn the dress. Photographs well, and I loved wearing navy.

BEAUTIFUL earrings.
I loved being "styled". I received a pair of Kate Spade earrings that I normally wouldn't have chosen for myself, but they were just stunning.

Definitely not a large, odd fit.
I was THOROUGHLY disappointed in this dress. This was sent as a replacement, as my backup size in the BM Orion did not arrive. This dress has a weird fit, because of the stitching underneath the right breast. Normally I feel that Badgely Mischka dresses run true to size, but not in this case.

Dress was not what I expected it to be.
The customer service of RTR is unparalleled. I cannot stress this enough, I loved upon receiving the dress that a Happy New Year headband was included- what a great touch! However, the dress that I received was a more champagne color, creating a more monochromatic effect. In other photos, the dress has a silvery look on the upper portion of the dress. It was pretty, but not what I was expecting. My dress was also missing its sash.

The customer service can't be beat!
The dress came a day later than it was supposed to- I had to go to a UPS store and retrieve it. It happened to be on the date of my event, which was as little stressful. The customer service that I received was fantastic. For the inconvenience of the late arrival, I was given a code to use towards a dress in the future. Luckily, the dress fit fine. It actually ran a little bigger than I was expecting it to. Had the 8 been available, I would have gone for that. The dress was a hit- I felt super comfortable all night and received a lot of compliments!

Stunning and Comfortable
I had to chaperone the Senior Prom- and as a young teacher, I struggled to find something that would be pretty, appropriate and not making me look matronly. I have a larger chest and tummy, but this dress really fit the bill. I felt glamorous, sophisticated and incredibly comfortable. I received so many compliments- would definitely wear spanx underneath so that the fabric flows.

I rented this for a high school graduation and to attend a show in New York the same weekend. The dress traveled well was comfortable and I felt so elegant. I loved the dress so much that I shopped around and purchased it on ebay! I cannot recommend this dress enough.
