Beautiful from the front, hot from the back
Love love this dress. I wore it to a bridal shower and then for an on-camera work event because the colors and cut looked so lovely on video. It's silky and vibrant, unique, and chic. The back is sexy, with just ties holding it together. I threw on a jean jacket though for an edgier look...and to cover my bare back! Advice: this dress will be hard to wear for a. super busty ladies, as there's not much room for your boobs and def not a place for you bra nor b. shorties. I'm 5'6 and even with my highest heels the regular almost grazed the ground in the back (it's longer in the back than the front)

Feelin' fancy and fierce in Philosophy
It takes a certain type of style aesthetic and confidence to pull this baby off, but if you're willing to rock it right it pays off. It's quite the statement maker and pretty dramatic, but in a cool way. The material is heavy and luxurious. The cape is subtle and chic. And the clasps, which closed around my rib cage, kept the top of the dress fitted to my bust while the skirt flowed nicely to above my ankle. The neck is cut a little low so I wore a sheer black bra which peaked out a bit but also added something sexy to the look. Kept with the minimalistic and tailored look of the dress with pulled back hair, simple gold jewelry, and black stiletto peep toe mules. The bag is loeffler Randall and I rented it through RTR too. Some words of advice--make sure to wear a black body suit or slip as the slits of the dress go up very high. Go for a low cut undergarment though so that the deep V neckline can be shown off. Also, if you're not sure about the size go for the smaller option because the dress will end up looking like a sloppy coat or robe if it's too baggy.

oh so stylish, but oh so large
This jumpsuit comes in a beautifully luxurious and thick fabric that makes you feel expensive...but unfortunately, it ran too big all around. My back up size, the 2, was still too big in the bust and the crotch was unflatteringly long. If only I could have had it pinched in in a couple of places.

Hard to wear if you're a pear....
Very chic color palette and versatile silhouette...bummed that the dress was too big for me, especially up top. The straps and bust were too big, but the skirt part fit (I got a size 4). FYI the white part of the dress is quite sheer, so have the right undergarments ready.

Loved the texture and color combo. Pretty small but held the essentials my essentials. Not the most convenient clasp.

romantic but runs big and billowy!
This dress is very beautiful in person, but a bit different than what I had expected. First of all, this baby runs big! I wore the size 2 (I am usually a 4) and it was still a bit baggy in the waist and shoulders. The skirt is a bit more bubbly/structured than it looks on the model, but the fabric is thick and luxurious so it fell nicely.
