I should have gotten the large. It was true to size and I was a little worried it was running small.
It was shorter than I had hoped.

This is a great dress.
Loved the way the overlays hang down over the bottom skirt portion. Fit great, was a tiny bit shorter than I would have liked - but it wasn't too short for work.

Adorable, comfortable and great color!
Very cute, comfortable. Really loved the shape of this dress, but it was a little on the short side for my tastes - but that's probably because I worry about things getting too short "for my age" at 48. To be fair - the pic of the model shows it at the length it is. I still wore it confidently - but any shorter and I wouldn't have been able to. My husband said I looked like I should be telling everyone to put their trays in their upright and locked position (lol) and he's right! I felt like a 1960's flight attendant for sure... but in the most adorable way. Very 60's mod.

I should have gotten my proper size!
This would have probably been so much better if I had gotten a L instead of XL. I'm new to RTR and some of the designers have been snug in my usual L/12 - so I've been sizing up sometimes. This is one where I shouldn't have. I'm learning the designers sizing - so I should get better at this! Overall, I don't love asymmetrical lines, but this one was kind of cute and fun with the flowy side.

It was just average.
This shirt is so much lower cut than the pics imply. I'm not sure how the model wore it and it didn't need a cami. By the looks of the image, I'm guessing they had the top pulled back at the neck - but no way it would stay that way. It was cute enough - but nothing special.

Really flattering
The photo doesn't convey well - we are renovating so my space and lighting is not great! I received several compliments the day I wore this to work. I was tempted to keep it but sent it back!

It was a work day.
It was a little shorter than I anticipated, but as a new-to-me designer, I just have to get used to how things run.

Didn't wear this.
It was snug - and the way the bottom ties, it wasn't flattering for my hips. It was lovely, though - and I wish I could have worn it!
