Way too big.
I will say that I'm more of a 00 than a 0, however I was SWIMMING in the 0. Like it wasn't just slightly too big, it was wayyy too big. Wouldn't recommend for other petite ladies like myself. Was such a beautiful print though.

Gorgeous dress, the BEST color!
This dress is the most beautiful orangey red color. It is bright and such a bold summertime dress. It's very structured and has boning in the sides of the upper portion of the dress. A tiny piece of the plastic boning was sticking out on one of the side, but it wasn't noticeable or super bothersome. You probably can't wear a strapless bra with it because of the way it's cut (would show on the side). I just wore sticky boobs. It's VERY fitted. I am more of a 00 which doesn't exist on RTR so I'm always looking for reviews of dresses that are snug or run small. If you're a TRUE 0 or 00 this dress is great. If you're in between sizes, definitely size up as a backup. Gorgeous dress, would absolutely wear it again.

Beautiful, but runs big
Such a pretty dress, but it unfortunately was too big for my petite frame. I'm a 00/0 and it overwhelmed my body and didn't give me any shape. I'd definitely recommend this for late summer/fall because of the thick fabric.

Gorgeous color!
I didn't end up wearing this dress because it wasn't quite right for the wedding I was attending, and wound up wearing a different RTR dress, but the color of this dress is gorgeous. It's almost a maxi on me (I'm 5'3") but would've still been great with heels. It's definitely small in the waist. I'm more of a 00 so it actually fit me perfectly, but I'd advise other to order a size up as a backup just in case.

Beautiful, but just a bit too long.
This dress is so pretty. I loved the front detail. I thought about purchasing it and having it hemmed just a bit because on me, it was longer than a midi, but not quite a maxi. In the end, I decided it wasn't worth doing that, but if you're a bit taller, I'm sure this would be such a fun piece to wear!

Weird fit. Beautiful top.
Okay, so I'm tiny. A true 00. I think this designer tends to run small, so that is usually okay for my. I have a really narrow ribcage/bust so strapless things are always a little hard for me to keep up. That being said, this top was somehow both too small and too big... it was way too big to stay up without a bra, but too small/where the seems are on the bust made it impossible to wear a strapless, which would have helped it stay up. It's such a pretty top though. So if you're tiny like me, but have bigger boobs (I'm a 32 C) then maybe you could wear this. But yeah, you have to be both tiny and have big boobs for this to work.

It's okay, not my fav
Free people always tends to run large, but because it's a wrap dress, I was able to make it work on my petite frame. I did have to lift it up going up and down stairs (I was wearing flats). I used dress tape to keep my bra from showing. It's low cut, but you can make it work for your body, depending on how low cut you want it to be, with some fashion tape. I didn't find it to be that much of a hassle. It was pretty, but nothing super special. Overall, fine, but not my favorite rental.

Beautiful, but too long on a petite frame
This dress is stunning in person! The color and the detail are amazing. I even liked the fit at the top, but it was a maxi dress on my small frame, and the with the way the bottom of the dress flares out, it was unflattering at that length on me.

Way too big
If you're petite like me (and to be honest, I'm more of a 00 than a 0), then this dress, unfortunately, is a no go. I could tell it would have been stunning if it had fit me. I'm 5'3 and 105 lbs, so I'm tiny, but I was swimming in the XS.
