I’d rather set them on fire than send them back
I don’t know who these are for - they’re awful. Super stiff and thick, with absolutely no stretch. Shouldn’t be a big deal, but fitting exactly right - not tight, not sagging - means a non stop wedgie and ridiculously uncomfortable while sitting.

A whole lotta trouble
This dress is probably very sexy on some women. However, if you have an enormous rack, and a tall man - if he's standing next to you, he can look down your dress and see to the floor. A little too much skin for me, and requires careful accessorizing to avoid looking like lingerie.

Pretty and easy to accessorize. The material feels like a space age foam or something, but on closer inspection, actually has a weave. Loads of compliments.

Fun pattern!
I usually size up for DVF wrap dresses because my large chest needs the extra fabric to be covered. In this case, I could've gone for a medium. The sleeves were halfway down my hands. I'm 5'4 and the large hit my knees perfectly.

It moves!
Get this gorgeous dress for the movement - it billows behind when you walk, and it's got the most dramatic flow. Hangs well, very comfortable, and completely strut-able.

Cute but impractical
The shoulder bows aren't sewn, so they need to be adjusted. I am not talented enough to make that look good. Not for the large busted. Even a large wouldn't button over my Ds.

Stunning and comfortable!
I felt gorgeous in this - wore to host a spring cocktail party. I have a large chest - support was a requirement, and a one piece shaper with a low back did the trick. I am 5'4, and barefooted I had a bit of a train. However, I wore some cute 3-4 inch wedges with it, and had no problem. The flow on this dress is gorgeous, I really didn't want to send it back.

Solid blazer
The good: Nice lay, nice narrow collar. Silk makes it lightweight. The bad: Silk makes it warm. Vent in back goes a little too high, revealing shirt to pants interaction (maybe just bugs me?)

A little bulky, I paired with skinnies and floral stilettos to sex up the Victorian sleeves. It was a perfectly fine sweater, but certainly not a power outfit for me.

Fun graphic print, very flattering style. The chiffon skirt is pleasantly swirly, and hit my knees at 5'4. The top has extra fabric at the bust, so you adjust for coverage.

Perhaps not for curves
I rented this for work. The quality is excellent - beautiful fabric. Unfortunately, the horizontal lines across the skirt are very unflattering on my body, they seemed to add lumps. The bust was not a good fit. The buttons gapped, even though it wasn't particularly tight. I think this would be incredibly attractive on a more athletic figure for a feminine mod Twiggy look, but it didn't work for me.

Flattering, comfortable, head turner
I didn't want to take this dress off the second I tried it on. It's so comfortable, the fabric is delicious. I rented a UK 14/ US 10, and it was a bit roomy, but the lines were good. It's unique and perfect for vacation or a sunny, weekend day out. I would do the size down next time. Also, in the pic - this is what I was wearing when I visited Chicago RTR location. My friend had to snap a shot. :) If you're busty, get ready for a knock out look. Bra at your discretion, the dress offers a little support, but with regular adjustments.

Quality fabric, interesting lines
Stretchy, comfortable, and flattering. Unfortunately, the fabric attracts every piece of lint and hair it comes across, so a lint roller is a must. A nice basic dress, easily dressed up or down.

I didn't realize this was almost a brocade like fabric when I rented it. It's got very pretty threads of gold in it, which made it feel more formal than I was looking for. Easily dressed down with a black sweater or white button up and ballet flats. Very comfortable. Lots of compliments.

Professional
I love DVF wraps, like, a lot. But they barely contain my chest, so I have to size up. I did so with this one, and it was still a challenge to feel like I was adequately covered. The extra length of the larger size was also nice. Wore with black tights and patent leather pumps.

Size up for modesty
I got a size 14, larger than my normal 10, because with my chest and DVF wraps, I need a larger size for the coverage. It worked, the dress was gorgeous, and I wasn't doing bra /cleavage adjustments all day. Also gave me a little bit more length, which I prefer with wrap dresses.

Nothing like a wrap dress for insta tailoring! Might need a cami underneath for work events, as this is revealing on chesty girls. Or, you know, not for a night out.

Beautiful and classic
I wore this for our 9th anniversary. Lovely color, easy to accessorize (I did nude stilettos with gold heels and a gold clutch). Super flattering, very chic. A fitting note - the dress is the tightest around the rib cage. Had no problems zipping up at hips, waist, or chest, but got snug at the ribs, which is not a problem I encounter...ever. If you're a singer with a well-developed diaphragm, this may not be the dress for you.

Perfectly flattering
I wore this for my MA graduation, and it was lovely. My 5 year old and I were equally excited about the skirts level of twirl (lots!). Extremely flattering and comfortable. Somehow arrived perfectly pressed, even though it's silk (well done, RTR!). The look received loads of compliments. I am having a hard time returning it, I love it so, so much. A note - the waist is very strict. If you've had a baby recently, or have any concerns about your waist, I would call and get a measurement on the size you want. If my waist had been half an inch bigger, I would have been out of luck.

The dress was better than the event!
I rented a 10 and a 12 as back up and went with the 12, thanks to my enormous rack. That said, the lace bodice shows the ladies off nicely, with one person saying, "Your friend (me) has the most beautiful boobs I've ever seen." The lace was very soft and comfortable, and the under layer did not ride up (hot dog).

Perfect for post-baby body
This dress is very flattering. The few folds around the waist helped minimize my postpartum tummy, the length was perfect. Be prepared for boobs. The 10 fit me, but was almost obscene with my giant nursing boobs. The 12 had a bit more coverage, but they were still on full display. I'm very liberal about showing cleavage, and it almost crossed my line, so be aware of your comfort zone! An overall stunner, and easy to accessorize.

Not for the short-waisted
The fit is incredibly awkward on me. I ordered a 10 and an 8, the 8 fit, but I tried the 10 to see if that would fix some of the issues. It did not. It fits fine in the hips, but is not for short waisted people. The folds on the sides hit right at the waist, and add inches to my waistline. I bet a long waisted person could rock it. The back does not go as low as I hoped it would from the picture, and the whole chest area is just...strange. It kind of supports (still need a backless bra) but too a weird level. I don't know. I wouldn't recommend it for larger chests and hourglass figures. Also, the color is definitely pink, not champagne. I would say it's pinker than the blush that is mentioned in the description. I was so bummed, I'd been looking forward to this dress for months. Thank goodness RTR does backup dresses, too! The jewelry matched beautifully, the dress is very flattering, and I'll have pics and a review for it soon. :)

Beautiful, comfortable, and the pockets are wonderful. The V in the back is not so low that you can't wear a normal bra, although, I recommend nude as you can see the straps through the lace above the bodice.
