The dress hugged me in all the right places. The v was low enough to be a little sexy, but not too low to the point of spilling out inappropriately at a wedding. Several guests came up to me to compliment the dress and one woman told me it was her "favorite dress of the evening." My husband also continually told me that it was a very flattering dress to my figure. I would wear this again 100% and recommend it to anyone. The fabric isn't too thin to the point where it shows bulges, but it isn't too thick to the point of it being too hot or restricting. It stretches perfectly!

This dress was fun. I liked how flirty the pattern and cut of the bottom of the dress were. I wasn't uncomfortable at all. However, I am not a busty girl, but I had some cleavage going on with the dress, which was a nice surprise. It wasn't over the top, but enough to show off some feminine features. I'd recommend the dress to anyone who really likes floral patterns.

I was so disappointed this dress didn't fit. The fabric was gorgeous. However, my legs and butt were much too thick to comfortably wear this dress as there was no give or elasticity. Because I needed fabric to make it cover my legs and butt, the dress wound up being pretty short, too. Neither the 4 or the 6 fit, and I'm sure the 8 would have fit my bottom half, but I would not have filled out the top half at all, and it would have slipped from my shoulders/gapped all evening as the 6 was a little questionable for my top half. I had to go to the RTR store in my city and get a new dress. I'd just warn everyone to be mindful of your curves and size up from your normal size for your second dress.

The lace was beautiful, and the color was such a rich olive that you don't typically see in cocktail dresses. I loved the high collar mixed with the open back. It was very classy but with a subtle sexiness to it. The stitching in the middle of the dress was very tight, which forced me into the M as everyone had mentioned in their reviews. I'd recommend getting a size up for your backup size. I am not big-chested, but I felt comfortable going braless (the lace texture hides any THO you might encounter). I'd definitely recommend this dress to anyone considering it.

This pattern was adorable, and the fabric was high quality. The top was quite snug, and I am not a busty girl, but I had to wear the M (rather than the S, which I usually wear in fit n' flare dresses). I wore it for my sister's graduation in hot AZ heat, and I was as comfortable as you could expect for triple digit temps. I'd definitely recommend getting a bigger size than your usual for the backup dress. The pattern really stuck out, though, and I loved how bouncy and full of flare the bottom was!

I wore this to a black tie wedding. I wore the 6, because the 4 was way too tight around the cinched middle, and it hugged my arms too much (and I am not really big on the top, so, it was a big of surprise as to how snug it was). The picture online makes it look like there is more of a nude underling color in the cutouts, but when you get the dress, that feature doesn't really show through, which is what I was disappointed in when I got the dress. Otherwise, it was a pretty dress, and I was happy to wear it, but I wish the bottom nude color had come out more as I had anticipated after looking at the pictures.

I loved this dress for its bright yellow color, and its very classic cut. I did receive a good number of compliments given how simple of a dress it is. It stayed up well, and I didn't have any issues with slippage as the night went on with dancing and drink at the wedding. I do wish the fabric had been a little bit thicker, because it kind of does show everything (especially as I finished dinner and was a few drinks in). Maybe spanx would have helped, but I didn't have any. Overall, though, I felt beautiful in the dress, and my husband was happy to point out how it shows off my curvy bottom half :)

I wore this to a NYE party. It paired well with tights. It wasn't my first choice, but I was pleased with the dress when it arrived. The material is a little shiney, but it doesn't look cheap or low quality. It has a slight glimmer to it. I went with the 6 over the 4, because the 4 was a little too snug in the cinched part of the wait. It was more comfortable with the 6, though I could have powered through the 4 if I was really adamant about it. My only complaint is that the fabric has a texture to it, so, it rubbed a little bit in my armpit/under arm from dancing all night. If you have super sensitive skin, I would advise against this. However, if you don't get irritated as easily or aren't as big of a dancing machine, you will fair just as fine.

This was for my 28th "golden" birthday party (which is in February when it is pretty cold in Chicago). So, I was aiming for a cool gold statement piece for my birthday celebration at a trendy bar. I went with the XS, because the M was way too big. I really needed a S so I could at least zip it and not have the fabric pull over my breasts or be too tight on my shoulders. However, the S was not available, so, I ordered the XS and the M. I am not big chested, so, I figured I could get away with the XS and just wear it over a t-shirt and not zip it, which would up being true. Everyone loved it. The fabric is a little glittery, and the gold color is not too obnoxious. It was exactly what I was looking to wear for the evening.

I wore this to a formal charity event to support PAWS (no-kill animal shelter in Chicago). I really liked the dress. I felt sexy and classy all in one. I wore the 4, because the 6 gaped too much in the back and the sleeves were slipping a bit (it was a little bit on the shorter side since I had to go with the 4, but between the gaping in the back/falling sleeves versus an inch or two shorter than desired, I went with the inch or two shorter). I was happy with the beauty and quality of the fabric. It is a dress I would like to have in my closet at all times.

I wore this to a charity gala for Autism Speaks to Young Professionals (hence, the blue). Everyone really seemed to like this dress (a few people went as to far as to comment on my dress in the photos I posted online). A lot of people were in blue that night, but the cutouts of lace in the dress seemed to make it stand out. The cut-outs are a little see-through, but as most of the reviews indicated, if you have a nude colored bra, it is no problem at all. I wore the 4, because there was too much bunched fabric in the chest area with the 6 (although the fit around the waist was a little bit more snug in the 4-- nothing close to being unbearable, though). I was happy I went with this rental.

I really loved this dress. Since it is not meant to be snug, and it sort of drapes over your body, it looked better wearing the XS than the S (the S made me look a little wider than I actually am). Additionally, you can adjust the tie of the bow, which gives you more of a custom fit for whatever dress size you choose. I loved the bow detail, which takes the dress from an ordinary wear to something with a little extra. I did get a lot of compliments on the dress, and I loved the rustic orange/pink color that it wound up being (went well with my olive-toned skin). I wore it on a warm fall day, and it was perfect for the occasion. It is a dress I would rent again.

I did not get to wear this outfit, unfortunately. I am a bigger size on the bottom than I am on the top, and it was very snug on my butt and thighs, but it was very loose up top. (If I had large breasts or a longer torso to make the fabric taut, it would have worked, but sadly, this is not how I am built.) I tried both the 4 and the 6. The 4 was WAY too tight on the bottom to wear all night, and the 6 was way too loose on the top (I would have been flashing people all night). I was also disappointed, because the right flap in the front was loose, because a place-holder thread had apparently been pulled out before the outfit was sent to me.

If you are bigger on bottom and smaller on top, this kind of fit and flair is meant for you. The material is nice and thick, so, it didn't need much beyond a quick steam after I packed it and wore it for a rehearsal dinner. I wore it with a peep-toed, chunky heeled boot, and I received a lot of compliments. The color is also a perfect pick for a fall event (however, I think this could easily be worn in winter with tights or on a chilly spring day--might be a little too thick of material for a super hot summer event). I was really happy with the dress, and I would buy it if I ever saw something like it. It would be a good staple in your closet.

I found that this dress runs small. I typically wear a 4 in dress size, but it did not fit my bottom half at all in the 4, so, I went with my backup size of 6, which fit a lot better. I loved the dress, and I received lots of compliments. Nobody wore anything else like it, and I was quite pleased with it. However, all of the compliments were pending me standing up....when I sat down, the fabric would not be as taunt, and it would fold and you'd have issues with your boobs hanging out. I did use fashion tape, but I had to reapply it multiple times, because eventually the fabric would pull away from the tape. I didn't have issues dancing or moving around, but between dinner and the ceremony (when all you do is sit down), I was getting annoyed. I really loved it, though, and I just wish they made tape stronger! I wouldn't let the sitting down issue stop you from wearing it at least once, though!
