SO very short
I'm short and not super modest, but this dress was WAY too short. It was also tight, but if it was longer would have been doable.

Vibrant colors
Beautiful dress, true to size. I'm 5'3", 115ish mom of two. I am small up top but still prefer to wear a bra; this dress accommodates a strapless. Length was great with wedge heels. Would probably be a little short on a tall person, unless you pull the bottom part way down so that more skin shows at the midsection.

Comfortable and flattering!
Loved wearing this dress! Also, the customer service from RTR is OUTSTANDING. Fit details: I'm 5'3", 117, average/petite build. Normally 34B, slightly larger at the moment due to nursing. I've got two small children, and I no longer have a flat stomach, so I always look for a dress that is forgiving in the midsection. This dress managed to be flattering by having a substantial weight to the material, and a nice cut. Shows off the areas I'm more confident in (back and shoulders). It's definitely a little bigger in the busy area; I am pretty small-chested and the dress would have fit more securely if I was better endowed! But it worked. Has some support in the chest area (if you're big enough), so no bra is needed. Felt appropriate for a charity gala, but still a tad sexy! Just a tiny bit long with 3" heels. This probably wouldn't work for a very tall person.

Love it, but it doesn't quite work for me
This is a beautiful dress. I'm 5'3". 117, and have two small kids. I ordered a 2 and a 4, this is the 4. The 2 is maybe a bit snug, the 4 a bit large, and neither is perfect. Both a bit long for me, even with 3" heels, and the dress doesn't lend itself to hem tape. I need to be able to wear a bra of some kind because of my current breastfeeding breasts (I'm usually very small up top), and my strapless really shows through the thin material of this dress. Also, I feel like the ruffle might be a bit much on my short frame. I've ordered a backup, we'll see!

Beautiful color, too large for me.
Gorgeous color! I love the dress, but it was overwhelming on my frame, even in the petite size. I am 33, 5'3", 117 and the mom of two small children (so my midsection isn't perfect!), I ordered the 4P and there was just too much fabric everywhere. The top was too loose to hold the dress up well, and I do have slightly wider ribcage than average for my height so I was surprised. Even with my larger nursing-mother chest I couldn't get away with it. Also, the waist did not nip in enough to be flattering. Great shipping and dress condition, however. And I LOVE RTR's eco-friendly shipping package!
