felt good, looked good
to be super picky, I would have preferred the length to be longer. I'm 5'6 so I cuffed them and wore with ankle boots for good look.

sadly our NYE party was canceled but the dress was great for photo op at home. sigh....
I will usually wear a 4 or 6, both fit but the 6 was better for a planned night of dancing.

wore this for my sons wedding and felt it was perfectly elegant, comfortable and well fitted.
the only negative was that the lining was longer than the dress so I ran out and bought some fabric tape to hem up the lining. other than that i loved the dress. i did not see any real difference in the size 4 or size 6

too small - could not wear it
dress in both 2 or 4 were too small and not wearable. but sadly family illness prevented us from attending party anyway so double bummer. i had lost alot of weight the last year so was unsure what size would be good,but i did wear a size 2 for new years eve. in a different RTR dress. but i would have needed a size 6 for this one.

nice dress but....
goit this as backup so did not actually wear it out. as for fit, it was a ten and i can usually wear an 8 now so maybe it runs a little small. but it felt good and looks good. my main issue was that the long lacey drape was too long. i do a lot of ballroom dancing. i am 5'6 and generally go with 2 in heels and this lace would have been stepped on me and an/or anyone dancing near me unless i pinned it up.

great dresses, great customer serviice
this is a good dress that mostly fit good. the back draping attached scarf is beautiful. i did not wear because the amount of the sheer(ish) overlay seemed twice the size of the actual fitted dress and I felt it made my boobs look like were down to my waist and hanging out the sides - very matronly. Ii played with adding a belt or scarf to give it more of an empire look and tighten up all the extra material but I was not satisfied and did not want to wear it.

very happy with the dresses, rarely disappointed.
great dress, feels good and looks good. one issue: i ordered a 10 and a 12. I received 2 dresses that both said they were size 10; one fit great (what seemed more like the size 12 should be) and the other did not.

almost great, but a no-go.
ended up never wearing it; dress looks great but it's a low back. you would need a bra that sits low on back, a typical bra is visible. other issue was both the size 10 and 12 "almost fit" but not good enough. the straps were loose on me (i'm 5'6"). and waist was snug. there would be way too much pinning needed for the straps and bra back.

not worn
this dress looked and felt very rich, but i went with the sizing chart guidelines i'm usually a 10 or 12, the sizing chats indicated that s/b a size 48 and 50. that seemed large to me me so i actually ordered a 46 and 48 and both sizes were still too big. i believe the 42 or 44 would have been correct for me.
