I LOVE THIS DRESS! I have a pear shape, small shoulders, small waist, bigger hips and thighs, but I'm also a 32G, so dresses can be difficult. This dress was GORGEOUS! If you have a smaller bust, there might be too much fabric on the top. It wasn't too low cut for me to go to a brewery, and hang out around San Diego, but it might be for more conservative women. The belt is at the perfect spot, and makes your waist look so small. I thought the length was too long the first time I tried it on, but the length is perfect for this dress. Plus the full back coverage makes the deep V less showy, in my opinion. I want to OWN THIS DRESS.

Weight of the fabric was heavier than I expected, but felt wonderful! The print was beautiful, and the color was perfect. Wore this for mass, and realized a little late that it was a little revealing, but if you're not as busty there shouldn't be any issue. It's a textbook wrap dress, but more fitted on the bottom. I have wide hips and didn't feel like it made me any larger!

This skirt is GORGEOUS in person! I love the color, print and feel of the skirt. It fits well, but I should have gone down a size. I went up a size to ensure my hips would be covered, but since the skirt sits on my waist it could have been smaller. The fabric has good weight, and is beautifully made. I was constantly complimented on it, and paired it with a white shirt and black shirt when I wore it. I preferred the white shirt with it, but it works with either. I'm 5'7" and it was a midlength skirt, hitting below my knees. LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS SKIRT!

Length was great, and dress was beautiful! It was comfortable and effortless with sandals and a jean jacket. It fit a little weird in the chest area with a bra, but with a bikini top it fit better.

I wish this dress wasn't so low cut! I love it though, the color, the fit, the length. My bf really loved it, but agreed it was a little too low for public. I have a larger chest (32F), so maybe it would fit differently for someone else.

I wish this skirt hit the floor, and wasn't see through. I loved the print and feel of it, but didn't like the length.

I've put on a good amount of weight over the past few years, and don't often feel pretty, or the photos don't look as good as I felt. This dress is the BEST exception to those feelings. I got it the day before my husband's military ball, and it was a tight fit, but the biggest issue I thought I had was the length. I've never worn a dress without a semi-full skirt, so I thought it had to hit the floor, it hit right below my ankles, and I panicked. I emailed RTR and they sent me another dress overnight, plus my backup dress was not available so they sent me a second choice that was similar. I wound up with three dresses, and they were all beautiful, but this dress was just TOO beautiful so I decided to just go with the "short" length. Turns out, this looked just fine, and is typical of dresses that don't flow out. I got SO many compliments! The sparkle was just ah-mazing, the sleeves and fully covered back made the deep V front seem less over the top. I am a 32F, so I am very busty, and that was noticeable, but I felt very comfortable all night (except during a serious line dance where there's a lot of jumping around). The sequins under the arms were obviously a little noticeable, but not uncomfortable. There were a few spots of missing sequins, but it was so miniscule, and not even noticeable. I want to wear this dress everyday, to every event I ever have to go to.

I ordered a 6L and 8L, but wore the 8L. I found the bust to be fitted, but I still needed a bra since there wasn't enough fabric in the top for my comfort level. The ONLY drawback I felt was the bottom. I thought this dress would be perfect for a pear shape, but it had a lot of fabric, so if you have a drastic difference in size (like I do, where my top can be anywhere from an XS-MD, and my bottom is a MD-XXL) then it could make your bottom appear heavier. I didn't take any photos from straight on because I was self-conscious of this. It was a bit low cut, (However I'm a 34F so everything is a little low cut for me), but not too much for a wedding. I did wear a little bolero for the mass part, but took that off for the party. I would recommend this dress though, it was COMFORTABLE, the color absolutely popped, and it had pockets! I would not rent this again, but mostly for the same reason I'm no longer buying formal dresses, I hate to wear the same dress twice in pictures! However, I was thinking I would wear it in red again in November, but decided it was too much bottom fabric for my body shape.

The length of the L is perfect! I am 5'7" and wore 5 inch heels, the dress skimmed the floor perfectly. The top fit well enough that there was no need for a bra, and I did not feel like I was hanging all out. I'm a bit busty (a 34DD) and I absolutely did NOT need a bra. I have a smaller waist, and this fits kind of tight in the waist, which is perfect for me, but maybe not if your tummy is your problem area. The slit isn't too bad, it's sexy without being inappropriate at all. This dress is AMAZING AND PERFECT!

This dress looks SO great in all the pictures here, I truly couldn't believe I had the same dress in my hands when it was delivered. The dress was MUCH too short to be comfortable, I am 5'7" and although my legs are a little longer than they should be it was not appropriate for a family birthday. The fabric was heavy which surprised me, it looks like such a light, airy dress and it is more like a quilt. The pink was phenomenal but the silhouette widened me, and I wish this had worked out better for me :(

I'm a typical pear shape which makes long dresses a nightmare; this dress was a wonderful breath of fresh air. The stretch was just enough, and the fabric is nice enough to not look like it's stretching to cover my hips, The back is so open that there is no way to wear a regular bra with it, which wound up not being a problem for me (however I'm a bit busty at 34DD). I'm 5'7" and wore heels that are around 5 inches tall and this dress skimmed the floor, so a long is perfect if you are going to be around 6 feet or taller. I ordered the 6L and the 8L, I wasn't sure which one would fit my hips best, and the 6 was just a tad too tight (my hips are about 40) but the rest of it fit PERFECTLY (I'm a 34-27 for bust-waist) and the 8 was just a little too loose for me, but I didn't even notice once I got to the ball. Overall I would have given it 5 stars, but the fact that I couldn't wear a bra made me a little uncomfortable.
