Great fabric! And a lot of it

I love Banjanan dresses but good luck guessing the fit. Definitely size down

It was definitely short but fit well and gave me a figure. Very light weight material. Had I not been going to a casual event, I would have thought it was cheap

Pretty material. Odd fit

The top is VERY low cut. You need a cami or be cool to show your bra. The top is HUGE but the skirt wait is way too tight. I was also too short to carry this dress off. Would have def worked for black tie had it fit

Fancy dress for a funeral

This was not black tie enough and I would have looked like the angel of death at a wedding. The top squished my boobs and the bottom was frumpy

Renter Beware!!

All of the weird reviews are RIGHT. This dress is an evil joke for shorter torso women. It falls in the weirdest places with zero shape. The small head is weird but that’s its most minimal violation. This should be a no-go for women with curves. What a waste!!!!

This dress is the physical representation of perimenopause

This dress is the definition of “meh”. Like if I was completely out of laundry and needed to leave the house not wearing leggings - sure. I wanted to like the colour.. I wanted to like the cut but couldn’t. The material is not cheap poly.. so maybe that’s a compliment? Or saved me from absolutely hating it.

The picture is cuter than the dress on the body. There’s little shape and it’s boring. Fine for running errands when I didn’t care but not worth your swap

This looks great in photos and did zero for my body type. Maybe you need a long torso and no waist? Who knows? RTR should have a “How did it fit” WEIRD button. Material is gorgeous. Just wish the fit was better and sad I wasted a spot
