Great quality just felt overwhelmed on my frame.
If I lived in a cooler climate I could make it work with a heeled boot. But it was rather long, big and didn’t do much for my shape.

Very cute.
In theory they were great, in some way I just felt like I was wearing plastic pants and it took the fun out of it. Wore them once.

Almost but was a 'no go'.
Sadly, the tummy area did nothing for me. Made me look twice my size. A bit too unforgiving and beyond. Beautiful material, though. If you have flat tummy I say go for it, or wear a big sweater that covers that area. Just wasn't the look I was hoping for this time.

Adorable!
Lots of room in the XL but that makes this adorable dress work even better. Iron the straps to maximize the feminine details!

Amazing quality - but had too pass. Too short!
This dress is stunning. But sadly, my D+ chest was just a little too big to be comfortable all night. I could have worn it, but the front of the 10R just came to the top of my foot and looked a bit awkward. I also saw the same dress at the event, so it turned out to be a good thing in the end. I suggest RTR have a list of ordered dresses for the same weekend from a city. It would be relatively easy to alert us if the same gown had been ordered for the same event. I saw two other dresses from RTR that night and we were all lucky we selected different gowns.

I felt very feminine as the jewelry was so easy to wear. Didn't catch on the dress at all.
Light, tasteful and great quality.

Perfection. This beautiful soft mint dress laced with gold metal thread was ideal for a spring event
RTR over nighted the 10R as the 12R was too long in the torso. The pockets held keys, lipstick, iPhone and business cards. And people seemed to think the dress was lovely all night long. I paired it with the Kate Spade Pick A Pearl bracelet and earrings and they were perfect. Light, sparkly and great quality.

The quality and cut of the dress is terrific. It's rater heavy so it falls just beautifully.
This was a replacement dress and they only had it in Long. Alas, I am 5"6" and it was 8" to long with 4" heels. If you are 5"9" or taller - you would love this dress in the Long.

I'm getting ready for Hawaii and a Thanksgiving cruise.
Pros: Great material, provides beautiful support, love the 'no thigh bulge'. Cons: I'm short waisted, so unfortunately the waist gathers under my bust line - I could almost pull it over half my bust. Idea: Spanx could go one step further with their sizing and offer short and long torso styles.
