Perfect.
Tons of compliments. It's a little high waisted -- perfect if wanting to draw attention away from a little belly-- for me it wasn't ideally cut. And I would've preferred a more svelte shape. And fyi there is slit!

Chose this for what was likely one of the most important events of my career and it did not disappoint! Comfortable, great color, easy to move in, sexy without giving too much skin away (so still very "professional's and didn't get uncomfortable once all night.

Meh
I wanted to love it -- I found the buttons up the chest very awkwardly placed. One button done up and it was far too revealing, two buttons up and it was waaaay too conservative and busty. The material also creases wildly even sitting!

Not for the full busted
I love this dress and received many compliments but didn't catch the structure but lines in the photos nor did I realize how stiff this be. I found it "squashy@ and when I got the right bra it did strange things to my line. It was "bossy" about where my girls should be ;)

And in addition the high neck squashed my bust. Despite the gorgeous material and skirt, the top just wasn't an ideal fit

Large baited ladies beware
This is a beautifully tailored garment for the small busted. In general I don't love when there are bust "lines" that outline where a breast "should" begin and end -- and as a person with a larger bust I'm often so embarrassed when I discover a garment has this quality. The "corset" shape is so elegant, the color great and material excellent, but I didn't end up wearing it.

Cute but "scratchy!"
A terrific garment with great lines and cut, but the fabric is 1. SO easily wrinkled and 2. Scratchy! I am not a "stockings under the trousers" kinda gal but these required it. I was losing my mind all day from the texture.

A comfy, flattering party fave!
So comfy, so flattering. If you’re a busty lady like me — try out a few different bras to avoid (achem) *oversharing* the gifts with the world. Another fit comment: I think it could benefit from more prominent shoulder pads to prop up the cross body bust cut. If it had been a dress I owned I would’ve sewn some in. But I got so many compliments and it’s a glorious pop of color I could’ve worn for hours and hours. It certainly outlasted my heels and my personal bedtime!

Effortless elegance
I’m a classic hourglass/pear and it can be challenging to get the just right strapless dress to stay in place without a constant “pull up” through the day/night. With the right bra this was a great dress that felt simultaneously SO repentant but also casual and carefree. A gorgeous color (I’d say it is more “orange red” in the vermillion family that pure red in the “blue red” family, IRL) I couldn’t walk a single block without getting a compliment. (And! FWIW— i wore it with a pair of RTR Mignonne Gavigan red winged earrings that went perfectly!)

Adorable
I wore this dress day after day in late spring early summer. Fabulous. It want a 10/10 fit for me — I’m an “hourglass” (quite busty and have a smaller waist) so I appreciated the wrap aspect of this dress because it was somewhat adjustable! That said it felt super big and yet I think sizing down would’ve crushed my bust. So bust ladies take note! Also the slit in the skirt isn’t ideal for walking around. I ended up wearing a slip to preserve my modesty LOL.

A disco ball of JOY
Phenomenal. I LOVED the set but the jacket was its own delight (also wore it with jeans to fancy cocktails— a hit). The material is first rate, very flexible (you can push or roll the sleeves up to the elbows for example) and breathable. The shoulder pads are POWERFUL but not over the top for the whole look. Can’t recommend it highly enough.

I liked it! I wanted to *love* it — (and I did get lots of compliments!) BUT: my bust in this dress made me look larger than I would have liked (as you can see in this photo). It’s comfortable, a wrap dress that can be easily adjusted but I found it to be a little “bust-forward” for my taste.

FUN spring or autumn jacket
Great look— this is fun jacket for the “between seasons” and such a statement piece. Compliments galore. It’s also a great testament to RTR itself— I’d never pick this up off the rack at a store or press “buy” online, but here I tried something outside my comfort zone and stylistically different to fill a spare slot and discovered something new I’d never try otherwise. Thank you RNT.

I have a larger bust and could have gone without a bra, but I used a little bit of fashion tape to defy physics and it was a hit. A perfect dress for a summer to autumn party. Sturdy fabric and unique, sexy peek-a-boo delight.

Take flight 🪽
My fave jewelry I’ve rented from RTR — the look is so powerful, such a statement. The color is a giant pop (note— in the rental photos the color looks more blue-red and IRL it’s closer to an orange-red / vermillion) I got countless compliments. Def worth a try especially with a strapless top (as seen here— also a RTR dress!)

The perfect high waisted short!
For this pear shaped/hour-glass gal, shorts are a tough sell, but when humid summer NYC days insist upon comfort, these shorts deliver style as well as comfort. They sit perfectly in my waist with lots of room for the bum and thighs. A soft fabric and a perfect color!

Don’t forget the fashion tape!
A disco ball knockout dress — but do NOT forget your boob tape. The dress is heavy because of the sequins— and thus gravity brings it down in some good places, but also in some tougher spots like the bust. Now I’m bustier (32DD) but… this was almost a rated R/ “NSFW” moment. Also as with all sequins — try it with shapewear if a smooth look is important to you—sequins emphasize little bumps and wiggles more than most fabric. But if that’s not a priority for you, you slay however you feel confident. :) In every other way a knockout.
