Well fitting and full of class!
Beautiful fabric and a very flattering cut. Under the bottom portion there is a thin layer of tulle which makes it fall nicely right above your knees (or at least my knees - I'm 5' 7"). Oh, and it has pockets!

Beautiful, Elegant Dress!
I didn't want to send it back! However, if I owned it, I would have put a few stitches in at the bust. This is a LOW neckline. If I wasn't already running so late for the wedding, fashion tape probably could have remedied this! The overall fit was wonderful. Despite the plunging neckline, this dress is very classy, and was perfect for an elegant wedding in East Hampton. I think the length of the dress and cap sleeves help counteract the low neckline. I would definitely recommend this dress, especially to those a little smaller up top :)

Great Color and Fit. Perfect for an outside wedding!
Although I did not end up wearing this dress, it fit wonderfully, and I plan to rent it again. I rented the 2 and 4, and the 2 was WAY to tight in the bust. The 4 fit very well, and didn't make me look too busty for a wedding.

Wonderful Dress for Beach Party!
This is one of the (many) RTR dresses I wish I could have kept! It is a very flattering dress - keeping you in up top, and flowing through the hips and legs. Beware however, if you have a bigger bust, you likely will not be able to wear a bra, which was not a problem for me since the fabric on top was layered. Also, a note about the length, I am 5' 7.5", and as you can see, I could NOT have worn heels. This was fine for me since the occasion was on the beach, however if you plan to wear heels, you may need the Long.

Great Color, Great Fabric, OK Fit.
I wore this dress to a summer Rehearsal Dinner. The fabric and cut made it very appropriate for the occasion, however the fit was a little funky. Right at my hips it was slightly baggy. I couldn't tell whether the was just the wrong size for me (although it fit well in the bust and waist), or was just stretched out. Overall I definitely recommend the dress, just beware of the fit (i.e. be sure to order 2 sizes)!

Beautiful Gown for Beautiful Lowcountry Wedding
I rented the 2 and the 4, since I have never worn an Erin Featherson dress. The 2 was too tight in the rib cage area. It was a beautiful color, but I opted to pair it with a lighter color belt, because it wasn't quite cool enough for black. The zipper in the back is a bit edgy, which I could have done with out. I am 5' 7.5", and the regular was just a BIT too long, so unless you are over 5' 8", I wouldn't recommend the Long. Over all great fit, and got many compliments!

Such a flattering fit!
I wore this gown to a late fall wedding at Pinehurst. It was so comfortable, but also glamorous. I ordered the 2 and 4, and ended up wearing the 2, because the 4 was a bit loose in the bust. Although it was slightly itchy under the arms, it was well worth it!

Stand out at a formal wedding!
I ordered the 2L and 2, and the 2L was very long! The 2 fit okay everywhere, but was a bit tight in the bust, so I couldn't wear a bra with it. The color is great, and stood out among all of the navy and black formal gowns.

Lots of compliments on this unique dress!
I rented this dress for an outdoor wedding. I typically wear a 2 in dresses, and ordered the 2 and 4. The 2 fit great! It is forgiving but figure flattering. Sometimes dresses are too short for weddings (especially when sitting), but this was the perfect length.

Great fit & super comfortable!
The size 2 fit great. There is elastic around the back, so there was wiggle room, but also snug enough. Wore this to an outdoor graduation party in South Carolina in May. The skirt is lined, which is nice, but also made it a little toasty! Definitely recommend this dress - I got plenty of compliments on it (and a friend of mine was sporting the same dress)!
