Incredibly classy!
Some tightness in the mid section for sure when sitting, but AMAZING fit when standing. I felt like a million bucks in this and would 100% wear again. Also appreciate that you can definitely wear a strapless bra and/or spanx shorts with this if needed since the tea-length allows plenty of coverage

Can't beat the color
I have a large rib cage, but smaller breasts and I expected the fit to be awful, but it exceeded all my expectations. The material is fantastic and extremely forgiving and doesn't wrinkle much when worn. Arrived with some wrinkles that came out with a quick steam. If you're self-conscious about your mid section I would size up

SIZE UP for pear shapes/wider hips!
This is one dress you should choose based off your bottom/hip size! I'm normally a size 12 and the L was too tight on my hips, I would not have felt comfortable wearing it. It's also the type of material that can wrinkle easily, so choosing a size up for a roomier bottom should also give less wrinkles!

Unbeatable color, forgiving material, endless compliments!
I wore this for my engagement photos, and it was perfect for me! Fit is very true to size. The material is a neoprene type, so it's unnoticeable to wear a strapless bra and shapewear underneath. Would highly recommend this dress!

If you normally size up due to hips/bottom, SIZE DOWN here!
Loved this dress, it was perfect for my occasion! I usually wear a 12 to accommodate my pear shape, but the largest size available was a 10. I took the risk and it paid off! If your waist/top is generally a size smaller (also small busted), going down a size will be the right fit for you.

If you want jaws to drop, rent this dress!
Designer is so consistently true to size, and this is no exception. I ordered the L just in case because I've received some RTR gowns before that are too short (and I'm 5' 2"). This particular dress actually was the correct length, i.e. way too long. So although I didn't wear the gown, I will DEFINITELY aren't again as soon as the need arises! Can easily wear shapewear and/or strapless bra without it showing, which is a huge plus for me!

Endless compliments & BEAUTIFUL color!
I feel I have disproportionately large arms and hips for my overall body size. I was worried the dress would be too tight in both of those area (as most shift dresses are for my body shape). But it fit very well, with room to spare. This dress was slightly lower cut than I would've preferred. My fiancé LOVED this dress on me. I will be renting again.

Perfect graduation dress!
I was very happy with the shape of the dress and the length. I'm short (5' 2") and it still hit right at/slightly above my knee so it didn't look too frumpy. It was a chilly weekend so I wore with a cardigan but the back V is beautiful. It seems low cut in the front to me, but I didn't feel it was too low. Depending on the occasion, that may be something to consider when renting.

Pros: flattering, comfy, tons of compliments! Cons: straps wayyy too long!
Bodice for is true to size. As mentioned in other reviews, the straps are VERY long. I am small chested (B cup) so I didn't fill the top well. I needed to use some safety pins pretty creatively to adjust the straps in the back. Good news: this is an easy fix that should not stop you from renting! Dress arrived brand new with tags on! Beautiful material/color/shape!

Flattering for all shapes! Felt confident & beautiful at my engagement party!
I am small chested and could easily go without a bra. I would recommend having fashion tape on hand to keep the front of the top portion from gapping and showing too much on small busted ladies. I was worried Kate Spade sizes would run very small but I found it to be very true to size. I enjoyed the pockets and the open back detail. I got compliments all night!

Good material, cute shape and comfy! But too short :(
After ordering the top and trying it on for myself, I agree with reviews that comment on this top being too short. I am only 5' 2" and I ordered a size L and the top was much too short for me to even wear to work.

If you have large arms for your size, get the next size up!
My arms are my problem area and are big for my size. I optimistically ordered a L, but couldn't fit my arms all the way. This jacket is a great material and is VERY cute, so I will be returning to rent an XL!

Flattering shape and great fabric! My opinion: slightly smaller than most retail "larges."
Got lots of compliments on the dress! Great color, very flattering shape/fit. I am typically size 12 and I chose a large. It was still pretty snug in the bodice portion (and I am only a B cup), but I felt pretty and comfortable for the most part.
