Mislabeled size?

I am typically a size 8. Based on other reviews, I sized up to a large. Taking it out of the bag, I was struck but how tiny it was! I’m 5’7” and it barely came below my knees. It was very tight across the shoulders. I can’t imagine was size I would have to wear in order to achieve the slouchy look in the picture. It left me wondering if the dress I received was mislabeled? Obviously did not wear.

A fun twist for black tie event

This dress was so fun! I enjoyed wearing it for a black tie event. My husband said it was his favorite dress I've ever worn, next to my wedding dress. I agree with other reviewers that it runs small on top relative to the bottom. I am an A cup and had to wear the size 6 instead of the 4 just to get the top to zip, even though the 4 fit better on the bottom. I typically wear a long but opted for the regular based on other reviews and the length was perfect. I have just two tiny complaints about this dress: 1. It wrinkles during shipping, so a steamer is a must before wearing. 2. The hardware that fastens the belt is slightly visible. But overall I was so pleased with this dress and had so much fun wearing it. Thank you RTR!

Regal gown for semi-formal wedding

This dress was stunning and also very comfortable. I wore it to an intimate, semi-formal winter wedding at a historic venue in Philadelphia and received many compliments. It is regal and classy while the floral pattern keeps it from being boring. I was worried it might be too voluminous, but it had just the perfect amount of drama. The pockets were also a plus. I found it ran true to size; I'm 5'7" and wore a 6L with heels. My only complaint would be that the side zipper is a tad sticky and has a tendency to pucker a bit, but that's pretty well disguised where the bodice meets the skirt. I ordered this without much thought as a backup style, but I fell in love with it as soon as I put it on. Highly recommend.
