Cute dress
I ordered this dress for a date night out with my husband. I received both the XS and S. The XS: The dress was fitted throughout and the skirt hit right to the bottom of my behind. VERY short. I would have worn the XS with cute black tights if it had been cooler outside. The S: I wore this size, but the fit was kind of strange. It seemed too large comparison to the sizing of the XS. The waist and skirt are much longer on the S. About the neckline: the deep v-neck is very flattering. However I noticed on the size S, the inseam pokes up and is a bit visible. You can cover this with a long necklace. Overall its a cute dress. Not a show stopper.

Sweet surprise! Not what I expected!
This dress was not my first choice. My original dress became unavailable 2 days before the Black Tie wedding I was supposed to attend. I am SO happy I chose this dress as my backup. This dress is extremely elegant, chic, and edgy - with a dash of sex appeal. Not AT ALL what I expected. The 2R fit me perfect. Wearing 3 inch platform heels the dress still needed to be hemmed up about 1 inch. The back of dress is beautiful! I was receiving compliments all night on how the dress is gorgeous and questions asking who the designer was. Because of the open back I went bra-less, but I am small chested so it wasn't noticeable. One tip: Going from car to church and church to reception hall, I noticed it was a very windy day. The slit in the front is SO SEXY when you are walking and dancing, but beware. With heavy winds it will fly open and show off your lady parts. So in that regard, I recommend not wearing this dress in windy weather... or just plan on being very brave (and make sure to wear nice undies).

Amazing Service!
I am so extremely happy I signed up for PRO. The RTR service is amazing! You can't loose by having free shipping and insurance for a year. The protection from the insurance makes me feel much better when wearing the dress to my event. On a side note - I would also like to mention, the RTR customer service is impeccable. I am so impressed! With my first purchase, one of the sizes I ordered became unavailable. RTR allowed me to pick a backup dress (any cost) and shipped it over night to me. The RTR customer service rep was so awesome, she ended up sending me 2 more dresses because I couldn't decide on which one would be best for my figure. Now that is great service!

Not for my figure
This dress was set to me as a backup. I received the size 2R and 0L. The 0L fit, but it was a bit tight and the length was way to long. If I had to wear this dress, I would have gone with the size 2R. With 3 inch heels I would have used hem tape for the 2R. The color is a beautiful green teal and the fabric is very forgiving and hides any imperfections. I feel this dress didn't work with my body shape (although my husband was crazy about it). I have muscular shoulders and a small chest, so the broad back straps and pulled in straps on the chest were not flattering. Also there was extra material around the hips and tummy area that made me feel I appeared heavier then I really was (which was weird because I'm a pretty lean distance runner). On the model the v-neck is plunging. The real dress has a short v-neck and shows no cleavage. I would recommend this dress to tall women. Maybe on a taller woman the proportions of this dress would fit better.

Maybe Next Time
This dress was my first pick. I was going to a Black Tie Wedding and wanted a WOW factor dress. I ordered the 0 and 2, because I'm usually a size XS in BCBG. I knew I would probably lean towards the size 2. About 2 days before the event RTR contacted me that the size 2 would not be available and to select another dress free of charge. They still sent me the size 0 in case it ended up fitting. Unfortunately it didn't, however I could tell if I had the size 2... it would have been a KNOCKOUT. This dress is sexy, chic, and for the daring spirit. With 3 inch heels, the size 0 length was perfect. I could zipper up the dress, but the straps dug into my back which was unflattering. The material is thick and stretchy. If the size 2 would become available in the future I would order it in a heart beat.
