Beautiful colors and flow, lots of compliments!
Wore this dress for my wedding anniversary and a night out to the symphony. Given all the warnings about the dress not being able to zip, I sized up. I am usually between a 4 and 6, but for this dress I rented the 8. It fit perfectly and zipped up, which I think gave the dress more shape up top versus leaving the under layer unzipped like some other girls opted to do. Length was perhaps an inch too long for my 5'4 height, but wasn't much of a problem. If you're shorter than 5'3, you might have trouble. I LOVED how the dress flowed when I walked. I got lots of compliments from complete strangers.

Flattering style and color
I really liked the color and the cap sleeves (which is the reason for renting this dress - they are fun and unique!). I took one star away for the fabric, which is less luxurious than other dresses I've rented from RTR. Length worked well (I'm 5'4). The dress ran slightly on the big side. I'm often a size 6 and rarely a size 4. But in this dress, I was a size 4 with a perfect fit still with plenty of room to breathe. If you are in between two sizes, I suggest ordering the smaller one.

Fun dress and easy to wear
The best thing about this dress is how easy it is to wear. Sufficiently thick fabric to hide flaws, but not too thick or tight so I could still breathe and eat with on problems. Slit was high, but not too high (I'm 5'4) and I was able to dance without any trouble. The slit makes the dress, and my husband loved it. Only reason I give the dress 4 stars instead of 5 is because it didn't have the "wow factor" that other dresses on RTR have. But still, a fun dress that I enjoyed wearing.

Amazing! Sexy yet sophisticated, and flattering in every way.
I wore this to a once-in-a-lifetime formal fashion show in Monaco for the Formula 1 Grand Prix, which carried a lot of pressure with choosing what to wear to the event. This dress was stunning. Here are the comments I got from my friends on facebook: "You seriously look like a celebrity" "OMG that dress is gorgeous! Where did you get it?" "Wow. So beautiful." The fabric is thick enough to hide any flaws underneath, but not hot. It worked at a spring time event despite the length/long sleeves because of the cutouts, which go all the way down the sides and make the whole dress seem lighter. I didn't wear the slip, but was still able to wear a nude thong and sticky bra, which were both unnoticeable. Fit was spot on - I am a size 6 in almost everything, and wore the 6 perfectly with room to breathe but still form fitting. There were models everywhere in the highest fashion, but I could tell that people were interested in my dress. Three strangers asked me "who I was wearing." Never thought I'd get that question in my life. I will always remember wearing this dress - it is truly special.

Loved the fabric but had a few minor issues
I wore this on a night out in Monaco for the Grand Prix, which means I was surrounded by models wearing the best of the best fashion. I felt like I fit in. The fabric has some weight to it, so it lays very nicely. It wasn't hot though. I only gave this three stars for a few reasons. First, it didn't photograph particularly well because the pattern kind of fades away as there isn't enough contrast with the color of the flowers. Second, it was tight in the stomach area even though I am a true size 6 while the mesh on the back was too big and didn't lay flat as it should. Finally, the top is cut in such a way that if you have any hint of fat where your arms join your chest, this dress will highlight it. Still, a nice dress that I enjoyed wearing.

Too small to wear
Loved this jumpsuit and wish I could have worn it. But sadly, too tight in the rib cage and chest (by a lot). I am usually between a 4 and 6. I ordered the 4, and probably needed the 6 or even the 8. I've got a wider rib cage and 34C chest. Really though, its the size of your rib cage that seems to matter.

Unique, comfortable, and perfect for a day time event
I really liked this jumpsuit. In a sea of sun dresses at a Derby party, my outfit stood out and got a number of compliments. The pants are really comfy and somewhat loose but not too much. The bodice is quite fitted and does have interior boning, but unlike another reviewer it didn't bother me standing or sitting. I am typically between a 4 and 6. I ordered both and the 6 was a perfect fit. Wore it with a strapless bra. Great outfit.

Too big to wear...
I am a size 6 in almost everything but, in this dress, I could have gone swimming in the size 6. I would have been better suited for the size 2. I am athletic with a flat(ish) stomach but larger "kickboxer" shoulders/arms. Therefore, I think the sizing for this dress is more based on the size of your midsection than anything else.
