Fancy dress with just enough sparkle
I felt this dress runs a bit large. I definitely could have sized down a size, maybe even two. I was worried the sequins would be irritating around the arms, but the arm holes are large enough that I didn't notice it throughout the night. You can definitely wear a regular bra with this dress, but I thought it was strange that the shoulder straps didn't have bra hooks to keep your bra straps in place. I had to adjust a few times since the dress was a bit large and the shoulder straps would move to the side. I'm not as tall as the model, so the skirt hit right above the knee. I would have liked it to be a bit shorter, as the length did make the dress feel a bit more 'old'. However, I paired it was some incredibly high heels to combat the issue and I think it worked.

Party dress.
I thought this dress was absolutely beautiful. It was significant;y shorter than I planned, so I ended up not wearing it for the event for which I ordered it, but I thought it fit beautifully.

The pendant is much larger in person, but it didn't feel overwhelming.

Great day dress
This dress looks like a muted teal color on the website, but the dress was a rich green, almost kelly green. I did not read the description accurately and I thought the skirt was chiffon as well, so I was pleasantly surprised that the dress was a lovely silk. I did think it was extremely long (almost mid-calf), but I liked the odd length. The dress runs a bit large due to the smocked back, but if you're large chested, you may want to stick with your regular size. Between the bright green and the silk, I loved this dress so much more than I anticipated. I had originally rented it as an option for a wedding, but I ended up wearing this out and about as I ran errands. I would have worked for a more casual wedding for a nice spring/summer party. The RTR picture doesn't do it justice.

Loved this dress. The lace details looked much more subtle than the photo, but still lovely. The arm holes were really tight, which prohibited me from wearing this dress for the evening, but it really is a gorgeous dress.

The dress is beautiful. The dress fit while standing, but it felt it a bit snug and I was sure if I tried to sit it would rip.

Better in person
I thought the dress would be more casual looking, but I was pleasantly surprised that it looked fancier than I originally thought. The dress doesn't appears as "nautical" in person, which makes the dress more versatile, in my opinion. As mentioned, the rope detail is not white - it's definitely more khaki. The dress definitely runs large, so it's best to size down at least one size. Having a large bust, I was thankful the top was quite roomy, but if you are small-chested, you may be able to size down two dress sizes. Would definitely rent again!
