Summery and FUN
Loved this for my besties 40th birthday on a riverside patio. Breezy and lightweight but still feels formal enough for a nice affair. The color is flattering and I got tons of compliments. Does run a little small.

Color and Fit were both Lackluster
I was hoping to pair this with a chic classic white button down and statement necklace. The color is slightly drab and the fit is a little odd. TTS in the waist, but with any top tucked in it was just too much bulk. I ended up wearing a sequin shirt i already owned. This was pretty average overall.

Sparkly and easy to wear!
Great length and easy to wear! I paired with leopard flats for a long surprise birthday party. Great for fall, popped a moto jacket over the top. Fit TTS though arms were the slightest bit snug.

Fabulous fabric and flattering shape
An incredibly flattering dress! Beautiful V front and a nipped in waist are both very complimentary. The ties on the shoulders assure a perfect fit and the bottom ruffle keeps the dress less formal if you want to dress it down. The fabric is heavy and lies nicely. I wore this for a 40th birthday dinner but kept it causal with flat sandals. Could honestly be dressed up or down. One of the better deals I've gotten from RTR!

Fabric brings down what could be a cute dress
The pattern is great and the fit is just ok. But the fabric makes everything....well, kind of bad. The fabric is MUCH cheaper than I expected, even at this price point. Very gauzy and low quality. It detracts from the nice pattern and more on trend length. Too much fabric at the waist gives it a bottom heavy look. Top was cute and fit true to size. I did not wear it because it looked too unpolished and too summery for the fall baby shower I was hosting.

Unique cut, length and fabric = FAB dress! Even better than expected!
The length, sleeve, and fabric all combine to make this a memorable and unique dress. Wore this for a just slightly-fancier-than-cocktail event and it was perfect. The fabric has some weight to it, but the floral (and unseasonably cold weather) kept it from feeling TOO wintry. Ran true to size. I would NOT recommend it for dancing as the sleeve cut really does restrict movement. I did have to pin up the underlay skirt to keep it from peeking out. I was honestly kind of surprised by the number of compliments.....its a fun unique one for sure!

Sexy and flattering and wearable
This was a little hard to shimmy on (no fastenings, you literally pull it on over your head), but the fabric and the ruching combine to make it SO flattering and dead sexy. Heavy fabric and a SNUG fit hold you in and its definitely form fitting. This was my back up so I didn't end up wearing it, but I definitely strolled around the house to show off to my husband. Don't even need a bra if you are smaller chested. Beautiful and easy to wear for a formal gown.

Suprisingly lightweight yet still statement piece
These were sparkly and a statement piece, but NOT so heavy as to be unwearable. Wore them almost 13 hours for a black tie wedding with no discomfort. A great rental!

Beautiful and Wearable
Dress was easy to wear and beautiful without being over the top. I wore it as the Maid of Honor in my sisters black tie wedding and it was perfect. The back is stunning and the length was perfect with short kitten heels (I'm 5'7"). I didn't need to wear a bra and the dress was in good shape: just needed a little steaming when it arrived. Wore it for more than 12 hours with no problems!

Wearable, great color, flattering and on trend!
Wore this for a fall rustic wedding. Worked great with a metallic shoe and a statement earrings. The sheer overlay is a heavy cotton and a touch more casual than I would have guessed, but I was able to dress it up with accessories. I'm a 34A and could have gone without a bra, but stuck with strapless. The cut of the neckline is VERY flattering. A great, wearable dress!

Wearable and beautiful!
The cut of the top is VERY flattering and the length of the skirt is great. The back was the star though! I am small chested (36A) and wore a Nubra stick on bra with no problems at all. The fabric on top is stretchy and thick and the skirt is more sparkly in person. Danced and drank and was SO grateful to the stylist, Heather, who found this stunner for me after a backup dress wasn't wearable. Thanks, RTR.

Did not end up working
As other reviewers note, it was SNUG at the waist and the camisole lining on the top would never lay smoothly, giving it an unfortunate wrinkled appearance. The underskirt on mine was also bent and creased, so the back of the skirt didn't lay right. The larger size fit me, but wasn't in good shape, so I had to order a backup (which RTR was AMAZING about!)

The color is beautiful and the back is gorgeous!
The waist in the smaller size was a little snug, so I wore the 8. The back is gorgeous (need a backless bra) and the top detailing laid flat after I spent some time steaming pre-event. I am 5'7" and wore tall (4") heels and the regular length just grazed the floor. I have slightly narrow shoulders though and the top bunched a little, especially when seated. The bottom is very forgiving and was great to conceal my still-a-secret pregnancy! Got lots of compliments on the color.

Beautiful fabric with lots of options to accessorize!
Comfortable fit and length and the pockets were a plus. It was fairly large in the top (I'm a 36 A/B) and I did end up wearing the smaller of two sizes.

Comfortable with multiple styling options! Unique color and nice length!
The dress was really comfortable, thick material. I tried on the 8 (size I ordered) but ended up in the backup 6 which just seemed to lay a little more nicely. I'm small chested so I was able to easily go without a bra. It could be easily styled to go barelegged or as I wore it, with dark tights. Great color and a nice length for a formal affair that doubled as a work event. Recommend.
