So so
I just didn't love it. It was comfy, but not super flattering.

Gorgeous and fun!
I wore this for a Havana Nights themed fundraiser and it was perfect! Gorgeous colors and it moves beautifully when dancing. It does run small and I had to size up to the 8. There is boning in the bodice which really helps hold the dress up. I just used tape instead of a bra and it worked great. The sleeves always sat nicely off my shoulders and I never had to mess around and adjust them.

Only for the petite
A beautiful fabric, photos don't do it justice. But if you are over 5 ft 5 in, don't think it will fit. I needed another 2 inches of length on the top to cover me.

Gorgeous
Loved this! Fabric had a slight stretch to it, and snug fit around top so it didn't slide. It was a perfect fit in the torso for me, so taller/long torso may have problems.

Comfortable but stylish
Wore for a retirement party/dinner. My backup size was unavailable, so was nervous the 6 wouldn't fit, but it was perfect. I am 5'7" and it was just long enough in the torso so it didn't pull or tug when I sat down, but for taller individuals, it might not work. As others have mentioned, a big flaw is you can't get in and out on your own because the small button in the back is impossible to reach.

Fun dress but comfy!
Ended up in the Large for comfort, but the medium great but it was VERY form fitting and I wanted something not so skin tight. The large was a little too big, but it was a fun dress and easy to wear. Was able to simply wear some spanx and was able to get away with no bra. Liked this dress, ,but didn't love it to the point of wanting to own it.

Beautiful Dress!
So sad this didn't work. It was a last minute backup dress and so I only I one size coming and it was so small. I am a standard size 6, but couldn't even get it zipped up. The 8 would have been perfect. Will try and rent again in my size for my next event.

Want to buy
Loved this top and didn't want to return it. Beautiful fabric and lace. Spent the night dancing in it and was incredibly comfortable all night. Does run small. If your bigger than a b/c cup, the top might not work. The medium just fit in the bust yet was a perfect fit every where else.

Beautiful lace
Fit was okay for me, which is why I didn't wear it. Think this dress would be great on someone with a short torso. It just didn't fit me great at the waist and added a few pounds onto my appearance. I ordered a size 6, and it was a little roomy, maybe a smaller size would have looked better on me. The lace in the back is great! Loved the open cut, very elegant.

Pictures don't do it justice!
This was an emergency backup dress that I had sent to the hotel after my initial dresses failed. I ordered it on a whim, not really thrilled with the online picture. Even seeing on the hanger I was unimpressed. However, once on, it fit so beautifully and the lace on the bottom is fantastic. Hugs the hourglass figure great, but you have plenty of movement with the flared lace that I was completely comfortable all evening. A simple but fun little black dress!

Just ok
Runs small and didn't have a large size to compare to, but it was an awkward cut and fit for me. The fabric was also so thin that you would need to watch what you wore underneath. Very pretty color though

Beautiful!
So badly wanted to wear this dress, however, at 5'7" the slip underneath was not long enough for me. Standing, it was okay, but in the back if I were to bend more than 30% my underwear was visible. Sitting was a challenge because it was so short as well. Almost wore it out anyways because it was such a pretty dress and it really does make your legs look great, but didn't want to struggle and worry all night long!

Runs very small!
Beautiful fabric, just note it is a satin material, so there is a shine. I somehow missed that in the description. Didn't wear this because I loved my backup dress so much, but would have been happy wearing it otherwise. I couldn't give it 5 stars because the zippers on both sizes were so incredibly difficult to use. Might seem silly to lower the rating on a dress over a zipper, but they were almost impossible to zip up, even with a second person helping. Also, no joke on it running small. I usually wear a size 6/M. The 8 on this dress fit, but was snug, and I could have easily gotten away wearing the size 10.

Show stopper!
Loved this dress! The fabric was amazing and the skirt was so full it was so fun to dance in! You do need to get the hang of stairs and getting in and out of chairs the skirt is so full and long, but worth it. I wore a medium (didn't have a Large to try on so no comparison), and it was a snug fit, but not too tight. I'm a 34b/c and it just fit. Length wise, don't even try this if you are under 5'7" or you are in the mood for incredibly high heels. I wore 3 inch heals and that was just enough to give me decent clearance off the floor so I could walk easily and dance.

Beautiful material!
Was torn between this and my free backup that was sent to me, and decided on the other just due to comfort. As far as the fit goes. I am a B cup, and this just fit on top. Anyone larger may have problems. Also, women with a petit torso may find it bags a little in the bottom.

Didn't work!
Very nice fabric, well made dress. Just not made for someone with a longer torso. I only had one size ordered, size 6, (risky, I know), so a larger size may have worked better, but would likely have been too baggy on top. The waistline sat very high on me, almost making it have an empire cut on me. Still gave it 4 stars because it was such a lovely material and very well made.

Didn't wear
Have to give a shout out to RTW for its fast service. Rented this dress as an emergency backup dress the day before and had it shipped to me the next day with no problem. The dress was very pretty and fun, but didn't end up wearing it due to the fit. I would say it runs small (would have worn the 6) and it is made for someone with a shorter torso. The waist did not sit right on me and was much higher than it should have been. The arms were snug and would have likely irritated me had I worn it for more than a few minutes.

Fun night
The dress was beautiful and the material was incredible quality. I only gave it 4 stars based on the fit, so for someone else it might be perfect. Based on my size and proportions (B cup on top), I had trouble keeping it up. I would have been more comfortable in the 6, but there was no way that dress was staying on me. The material is such a heavy, beautiful fabric, that you can't mess around with the fit. It needs to be snug or it is falling down! Also, the dress I had was fairly uncomfortable because of plastic "boning" that was poking me most of the night because it had broken through the liner. Got lots of compliments, was happy to have worn it, but won't rent it again based on the fit.

Love it!
Wish I could buy this one! Loved the lace up front and open back, provided just enough exposure without being over the top. Fit great in the waist, shoulders and the leg length, but it was almost too short in the torso for me- when I sat down I had to make sure to pull the legs up so it wouldn't tug at the neck.

Comfortable!
Very comfortable material, has a little stretch to it which is always nice, plus pockets! Love the pockets! A simple and yet very stylish outfit. The outfit would have received 5 stars if it weren't for the issues with the length if the pants. The 42R I was sent was a full 4 inches shorter than the 44R. I think this was a recurring theme in some of the reviews about length variations, and if both of my sizes were the same length as the 42R, I could not have worn the outfit as it was incredibly short. That being said, the 44R was a good length for me but I could see how someone with a petite frame will struggle with the pants being too long.

Tons of compliments, beautiful color
Dress was beautiful and in excellent condition. I usually wear a 42, but ended up in my backup size 44. I could have fit in the 42 as the material is soft and has a lot of give, but it pulled in the back and was just a little too small. The 44 was a comfortable fit and the dress was very flattering.
