Super small and itchy
Way under sized and cropped. Fabric is not comfortable. Ended up not wearing.

Twyla Pullover

Size Worn: S
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 7"

Unique can be dressed up or down
I wore this to a fancy dinner and love the buttons and unique neckline. It can be dressed down to be more sporty, worn to an office, or event! I am usually true to size and this has some room to be flowy but still flattering.

Beautiful, unique dress for black tie optional wedding
This beautiful dress fits true to size. I usually opt for a Nubra with backless dresses but the material is thick enough that you don't need it! I'm 5'7" and wore 3-4 inch heels and the length was perfect (I was worried it would be short). Everyone loved the dress and it needs minimal accessories because of the unique pattern. It did come wrinkled and was a little difficult to get the wrinkles out both with a steamer and iron but you couldn't tell in photos. Another awesome experience with RTR!

3D Magnolia Gown
Nicole Miller
Size Worn: 6R
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 7"
Weight: 130lbs
Bust: 34B
Wore a different dress because this was large on top.
I received this dress in 6 and the Nicole Miller Navajo silk maxi in 6L after the original dress I ordered (Marchesa Spices of Morocco maxi) was unavailable at the last minute. I ended up wearing the Nicole Miller. I absolutely loved this dress, but it was big on top. I usually order a 4 and 6 because I am smaller on top, and I needed a 4 in this one, which was unavailable. The dress is gorgeous in person and I would love to wear it for another occasion.

Bold Baroque Dress
Marchesa Notte
Size Worn: None
Usual Size: 6
Height: 5' 7"
Weight: 135lbs
Bust: 36C
Unique dress got many compliments at a friend's wedding!
I received this dress after my original order for the Spices of Morocco maxi by Marchesa was unavailable at the last minute. I usually order a 4 and 6 and thankfully the 6L fit in this dress. It is very fitted on top, which balances nicely with the flowy bottom. I also really liked the unique strap. I am 5'7" and wore about 3" wedges, and the long was the perfect length, just brushing the ground. My only gripe was the hanger straps, which I kept having to tuck back into the dress. I usually cut them out!

Perfect print, fabric, color, and open back!
I rented this for my rehearsal dinner on 4th of July and everyone loved it including me. It looks great on any body type. I am 5'7" and couldn't wear heels with the 4R. Don't forget to get a Nubra to wear with it!
