Totally Unique
This is why I love Unlimited. I would never buy this dress, and yet it was supremely fun to dress up in something outside my usual for the day. The material (thick) and the detailing (sleeve buttons) are gorgeous, as is the red color. It is clearly a well made dress. That said, the cut did not flatter me --much too widening through the hips (not typically an area of challenge for me), and the length and weight make it feel quite conservative. I think it was the the tailoring and the boldness that drew comment, including questions as to whether I was professionally styled. You will definitely be noticed in this dress!

Brilliant Color
Lots of compliments at work. Paired it with dark, fitted, ankle zip jeans. A fun change in the usual work wear. The side material really is quite long -- more than I expected. I don't tend toward the asymmetrical line usually, but really enjoyed this variety in the closet rotation. The color and material are great. Fun top!

I wish I had kept this dress. Elegant, polished, classic. Great material, great print, fits well. Charmingly oblivious husband asked, "is that new?" which is always a sign an outfit is working. ;) Just Yes.

Easy summery dress
Okay, I wore it in the early fall which worked too. Cute and comfortable. I don't usually like an elastic waist, but this one didn't bother me. Great colors. Good for the cross-over seasons.

Betty Dress
Heavy, neoprene material and lovely colors and print. The unexpected part was the fit and flare that doesn't come through so much in the model photo. It has a very defined waist and because of the neoprene really puffs out from the waist into the skirt. I felt as little as though I were wearing a doll dress and almost skipped it. In the end, I came around to it, though, and got a zillion compliments on it at work. Think contemporary Mad Men.

Holds EVERYTHING for work!
Structured, professional and fashionable in one. Holds my laptop and chargers, lots of file folders, and anything else I might need for work. Down side is it has only one small side pocket that is fairly tight -- wish it had more, including dedicated spot for pens. And it is quite big.

Compliments at work
I love Parker which was what made me pick this dress in my unlimited. It's a bit ruffly at the breast and hem for my usual taste, but very pretty and everyone at work loved it.

Perfect weekend day dress
I really wanted to wear this to an afternoon at the MOMA but it didn't come in my unlimited in time. I think I wore it to work with black tights. Wherever it was, I thoroughly enjoyed it! Thick material that holds a nice solid shape at the neck and flair at the skirt. Great fall pattern. Almost kept it.

Big and Cozy
Wore this out walking with the family on a California-chilly day over the holidays. Super comfortable ~ loved wrapping up in it. Husband thought it was a little much fashion wise, but then he has more conservative style. Colors are bold and collar is massive. It's a bit bulky for my usual, but the coziness is unbeatable and it was really fun for something different.

People loved this dress!
So this is a funny one for me... I personally didn't love how it looked on me, but everyone else, friends, colleagues, and strangers, loved this dress. TONS of compliments! Dress is classy, thick material, nice tailoring and details on the print, the button, the zip ~ well tailored and unique. Great for work. For me, though, the length was not what I think is most flattering on me (mid).

Richly colored and textured skirt
Wore this to work. Not my usual style, but fun and different and got compliments from colleagues. Waist is tight as others have noted. I think I'd still stay with my usual side, but just good to be aware that the waist is unexpectedly snug while the skirt is full. Rich color. Thick layers of lace almost like tulle.

Wore this dress to work. Loved the color, the fit, the waffle texture of the material, and the cute little collar that makes it just the right amount of girlie. Professional and sweet at the same time. Wish I could have bought it. Love.

Unfortunately the weather wasn't quite as warmed on vacation as hoped, so I didn't wear this dress. I loved it when I tried it on, though. Comfortable, beautiful rich colors, wonderful material -- feels special, yet relaxed. Runs a little large.

Classic with a little extra flare
Wore this to work with a pencil skirt and a wrap cardi and belt because the the peplum alone felt like it made me look wider than I wanted. Worked well this way.

Cute, not amazing
I wanted to like this dress more than I actually did -- dress was workable, maybe my expectations were too high. Material is high quality, and color is lovely and different. The dress had a little less shape than I was looking for. Also, material snags easily, so I felt like I had to be extra careful.

Wanted to use it for work, wasn't big enough
Unique bag, but didn't love it. I thought it was going to be big enough to take my things to work, but is actually a much smaller purse than than. Fit phone, wallet, etc, but not my work papers or little macbook. If you're wanting it for a handbag and not a work bag, could be just right.

Sassy, fun, and different
Wore on a long overdue date night with the bf and friends. I'm not usually a jumpsuit kind of gal, but I love Parker, and I love that RTR Unlimited lets me take more risks. This one was fun and a different look for me. Runs long -- even with considerable heels, though I'm definitely on the short side. I reduced the openness of the back with a little double sided tape, which worked great.

Rented this for a wedding week and ended up wearing something else that fit the context better, but loved the dress so much that I rented it again for another wedding where I did get to wear it. Loved the color; fits like a glove; short, yet classy; super cute. Elicits compliments from strangers.

Adorable!
Wore this shirt to a casual, outdoor brunch time party. I was concerned about the shirt looking shapeless due to notes from others that it runs long -- a style that often doesn't work on me. The shirt is long, but it's also a lovely material, comfortable, fits well, cute design, and definitely not shapeless in the way I feared. Very cute and a great wardrobe addition!

Lovely pants that came brand new. Got compliments on them at work. Issue for me was the size -- wish I'd gone with a zero. The two was much too large. I recommend sizing down.

Pretty, not perfect
Wore this to a rehearsal dinner for a Hawaiian wedding. Pretty dress. Color looked red on the website -- definitely is pink. I love Parker dresses in general! Great material, nice length, comfortable. One down side was the ruching. Maybe I didn't have enough bust for it, or else it's just too much material. I had to keep adjusting the folds.

Cute, not to die for
Rented this for a beach wedding week cocktails event, but didn't love how the peplum looked (too much layer on the side) so ended up wearing it with a fitted sage leather jacket to work instead. Not your standard work dress, but worked with the jacket dress-up. Got multiple compliments from colleagues. Was cute and different but not a home run.

Lovely dress, but didn't make me feel like a million dollars.
Beautiful material -- thick, cozy, and luxurious. I wore it to work, and although I got some great compliments on it, I felt like it didn't super flatter me around the waist and that it was little lower at the neckline than I would have liked. May be in part due to size -- although I requested an XS, I got a Petite, and the arms were a little tight and the waistline a little high for me. However, I suspect it's probably also because my stomach isn't as flat as it once was! ;)

Versatile, unique, great color
I got this jacket in my unlimited and wore it several times before trading it in. Nice thick weight for colder months, unique cut, and vibrant color make it fun and different and a little edgy. I wore it for work, for a day out at the art museums with a girl friend, and to dinner with my boy friend. Warm enough to function as a coat in the SF winter yet light enough to wear indoors all day like a blazer. It's a do!

Hit's the sweet spot -- cute, fashionable, yet dressed up and work professional.
The other reviews were helpful here -- as noted, the shirt is more green than appears in some photos, thick material, and runs large. I got a 2 which is typically what I wear but almost wished I'd tried the zero. I wore it with white jeans to work and got compliments from colleagues. Comfortable shirt, would be great for travel as there was not a single wrinkle after being in my gym bag. Material, color, and cut made it fun and different than my usual. Recommend!

Loved this dress! Just the right blend of fashionably dressed and not trying too hard.
Wore this on a date with my boy friend who was not super jazzed about seeing a RTR bag arrive at our apt for an ordinary Saturday night while we are trying to save to buy a house! Knew it was a winner when even he admitted the dress was great. Was cute with black stockings and booties for a wintery evening.
