I absolutely adored this dress - one of my favorites from RTR! It is made of a softly flowing silk jersey and the print was perfect for an outdoor summer wedding. It is also hugely flattering as well as very comfortable. Loved it!

I really wanted to like this dress, but...lots of exposure on a C-cup. I usually wear a 6, so based on the reviews, I rented a 6 and an 8. The 8 was too large - the waist and hip area were sagging - but the 6 stayed put, so that's what I wore. Unfortunately, the 6 showed lots of cleavage and between that and the short skirt, I felt pretty exposed and uncomfortable. I thought the skirt would be longer on me than on the model - I'm 5'6, and I assumed the model must be around 5'10 - but the length looked exactly the same. I can't help but compare it to a previous rental, Z Spoke by Zac Posen's Navy Flirt and Flare Dress - I felt both comfortable and beautiful in the Zac Posen.

First off, let me say that this dress is beautiful. It has a bit of a retro 1950s vibe, and it fits comfortably. However, if your bust is a C-cup or higher and you do not want to look like one of the Girls Next Door, I would recommend going up a size.

This dress is more sparkly in person - the gold sequins do stand out. It is pretty and flowy, but the sequins were a bit disappointing. Overall, it does fit true to size and the colors are beautiful, but do keep in mind that it has an overall flow-y fit (not tailored) and that, combined with the large print, is not exactly slimming. Overall, a nice dress in striking colors, but I opted for my alternate.

This earrings are beautiful and complemented my dress (Catherine Malandrino's Oscar Please Gown) perfectly. A bit heavy, but not so much so as to make them uncomfortable.

Loved this dress! The fit is very flattering - it's a jersey-like fabric that is snug yet comfortable. The neckline was perfect; I'm 34C and used a backless, strapless bra which I then glued to the dress with the enclosed double-sided tape - it stayed put all night. I'm 5'6, 125lbs, 35-27-37 and the Small fit perfectly. I did order the Regular and feel that with my height and using 4" heels, the Long would have been better, but no matter - this was a beautiful dress and my only regret was having to send it back!

The stones on this cuff are gorgeous - but the strands holding it together, not so much. They were stretchy, cheap-looking, and actually distracted from the gown (not in a good way) - I ended up not wearing it.
