Cozy, fashion forward sweater
Cozy, trendy sweater that looks great. Received many compliments wearing this piece. Overall, I loved the sweater, but there are two slits on either side that go up about 4-6 inches - could be tricky for longer torsos.

Gorgeous dress, awkward fit
This dress is absolutely beautiful and has the potential to be a breathtaking dress but for the fit. I am a size 6 and haven't had any problem with the fit of other RTR dresses, but this dress was different. The dress is definitely snug in the hips, which I could tell was a common problem as the lining was obviously resewn. However, the snug fit of the dress in the hips caused the dress to bunch on top and in various other areas on the dress, so the dress was not as flattering as it could have been. I would only recommend this dress if you have narrow hips with a larger bust.

Cute dress but size up!
This is a very cute dress, but the fit is very narrow for Milly. I am a fan of the Milly brand and have bought many of their dresses in the past, because they are cut well for hourglass figures. I usually wear a 4 in Milly, so I ordered both a 4 and a 6 in this dress thinking I would just wear the 4. Thank goodness I ordered the 6! The 4 was far too small over my hips. The 6 was snug too but passable, so I ended up wearing the 6. You could tell other girls had had the same problem with this dress because the satin lining was torn a little at the seem, which you could see through the lace (could have been a disaster but wasn't noticeable if I held my bag down by my side). Anyway, my recommendation is definitely to size up if you are going with this dress!

Gorgeous earrings to compliment a formal dress
I rented these earrings to compliment a formal gown I order for a black tie affair. The dress was simple so I ordered the earrings to standout a bit, and they were perfect. The earrings are large (a little less than 1" in diameter) so they are definitely noticeable, but not so noticeable that they take attention away from the rest of the outfit. I thought they were perfect for the formal event I attended and would recommend to anyone else looking for a little bit, but not too much of, a statement piece.

This was a gorgeous dress that was perfect for a black tie reception I attended in NYC.
The dress is GORGEOUS!! While simple, this dress really stands out for its details - the contrast of the fitted bodice and flowing skirt is beautiful only to be outdone by the open, crisscrossed back of the dress. I would definitely recommend sizing down as the top was larger on me than I expected. The material of the larger size I ordered, 6L, kept flaring at the armpits. As for length, the dress was perfect, just coming to the floor so that I didn't trip on it but also hiding my shoes. I definitely recommend this dress. It's beautiful and you will definitely get compliments on it.

Got so many compliments in this dress, but size 4s were all taken. Size 6 was a bit too large.
Receive a lot of compliments in this dress, but be sure to order your size. I normally wear a size 4 and got the 6 as a backup. RTR was out of size 4s; and instead of opt for another dress like RTR offered, I went for the size 6 anyway. The dress was still beautiful, but it was definitely too big. Dress is supposed to be fitted and the larger size gaped a little too much. Oh well, still looked good in pictures!

Dress and color were beautiful -I got so many compliments!
Dress fits true to size and is gorgeous. Can pull off Regular length if you are tall and wear a black shoe or another color that blends with dress and doesn't have too high a heel (2" max probably). Otherwise, I would go with the Long. Also, you will definitely need to buy an adhesive, backless bra.
