The fringe trim detail
My favorite this shipment, the detailing, the drape, I loved alll of this sweater. The sleeves are a bit long but really lovely for work or casual.

Would’ve bought in a heartbeat
But I don’t need another casual jacket. Utterly stunning, beautiful detail and just the right weight. It was a size too big and already oversized, a small would’ve been better fit.

Sleeves are fabulous
Great dress, cotton, more casual it the drama is it. Was big on me despite the elastic, felt like the elastic was wearing out so a size smaller would’ve fit better. MIDI on me

Not for short torso gals
Cut out left me bulging out, one shoulder was both choking and too loose. No good on shorter torso gals. Also super long on my frame.

Adjustable straps but seemed loose
Loved this dress just not formal enough for my needs. Adjustable straps seemed risky since they were self tie

Oversized
Gorgeous beautiful dress. I made it work but wish I got a size down. I taped it in place and wore my highest heels. It needed a belt to control the swish but was perfect for a Miami formal wedding.

Simultaneously two styles and neither worked
Managed to come off staid despite the patterns and fit poorly. The floral and polka dot should work but the scale was off. The ruffles were a lot.

Plunging neckline
My whole chest was out and I am a member of the ibtt. I can’t imagine this with anything larger than an a cup. The material was super thick and the halter was confining. Not a win.

Needs seamless underwear and pasties
So thin you can see everything. Slinky, beautiful material, though poly. You could see everything lump and curve, every underwear line and scar. Not for me, but great for someone that wants a dress to hug everything. Also the neck is weird. I have a short torso and had a lot of gaping materials up top.

Not for short torso, did not wear
I got a size too big at size 10 and knew it was possible but overall it was just too roomy. The neckline was hard, it really needed a body that matched the torso length because if you have a short torso, the neck to upper chest is too long and then reveals too low of the boobs and then the whole thing is off. Probably best for also at least 5'3 and not short torso. Overall, a miss for me

Beautiful gown
Fit me perfectly. I also got the 6 and it was figure hugging tight. Since I wanted to eat dinner I opted to stick with the 8. It hit me right at my ankles and the armpits were a little low but this was a beautiful dress, amazing structure and terrific color. it's a great dress to wear if you're going to be sitting for dinner or standing, travels really well and wrinkles shake out easily. Not so great for dancing since the arms are kind of restricted but I would rent this again for any occasion.

pretty, runs slightly large
Ordered an 8, 5'3", 135lb. Too big all over, hit me just at the knees, large in waist, large in torso. I typically order a 4 but sized up here based on reviews. I'd say this dress probably runs slightly large and I would recommend order your size or if you're between, the smaller of the two. Did not wear, too large to make work. Great feel, great fabric, cute print. Better for work sundress than a flirty sundress.

not great for petites
Dress runs large and better fit for non-petite sizes. Torso and waist fell long on me at 5'3", and was large overall, and even on tiptoes, the dress pooled 2 inches. I'm typically a size 4 and sized up to a 6 based on reviews here, and it was definitely too big. This will likely fit those 5'5" and above better, and girls with a larger chest. I didn't come close to filling out the top, and it was very baggy. The lining is very obvious as it seems to be wider than the skirt, so when it's sewn against the edge of the slit, parts of it show since it's not flush with the lining - that's just poor design in my opinion. Dress is better suited for a cocktail dress code - fabric, even with lining, is thin, and doesn't have the weight to stand up in a black tie environment. probably also not warm enough for winter/fall weddings. beautiful print.

weird sizing
Looks like it should fit like a sheath in the picture, but actually runs fairly slim from waist to hips, while being very large up top in and in the arms. It was too large in the neck, arms and torso for me to wear, but fit pretty closely to me in the waist and hips, even a little tight. Best for inverted triangles or those with slim hips.

Easy to wear, slit can be problematic
Easy to wear dress from RTR own collection. Fabric was fairly thin and cheap feeling - but the shape of the dress was A+. Also showing signs of pilling along the edges and piping. Vent in front can be problematic if you are sitting in a chair facing people without a desk covering that area. Crossing legs helped but it was still pretty high. At 5'3", hit an inch or so above my knees. No lining, so I wore my own. Typically a straight 6 in ready to wear, and a 6 fit perfectly here.

Beautiful color, bit worn
Fits TTS for ready to wear. The one I received was a bit worn around the edges - clearly the constant dry cleaning had taken a toll, and was pilling along the edges. The color is a beautiful dusty blue, fit really well all around. I'm typically a straight 2 or 4 in stores, 6 or 8 in ready to wear, and wore a straight 6 here. I'm 5'3", so hit right at the top of my knees, perfect length for work meetings I had. I would more call this a sleeveless dress - those cap sleeves just cover the tops of the shoulders, I topped this with a navy blazer. Comfortable and warm enough all day on a rainy, chilly day.

Skinny in arms, wider in torso
Arms are very slim for the size to the point where I was straining at the seams. I'm typically a 2 sometimes a 4 in blazers and have wide shoulders, so typically sleeves end up wide for me, so slim sleeves here was a surprise. Did not end up wearing this as a would have restricted my movement but the torso otherwise fit nicely as did the shoulders. I am 30E, 135, 5'3". Also sleeves were about 2 inches too long for petites.
