Very feminine and sheer
Loved this - I am always looking for very feminine blouses for work and this was great. Wore it with a black cami underneath. Didn't love the neck bow, but it works.

Easy Elegance
I love an elegant look that doesn't required snapping, zipping, squeezing or any other effort. This was a slip on dress that looked more expensive than the effortlessness would lead you to believe.

Flight Attendant Vibes
But I liked it! Something about the neck wrap made me feel like I was working first class on a foreign airline, which isn't a bad thing. Didn't love it but cuter than I expected.

Cutjer than expected!
Not my usually style or colors but something about this cardigan really worked! The slightly puffed shoulders gave it a bit of femininity and the overall fitted shape kept it from being too nerd-core. I paired it with a long teal green suede skirt and loved the look.

Super comfortable, not especially flattering
This would probably look great on a tall, slim figure. Being short and hourglass shaped, this did nothing for me. The fabric is super soft and comfortable though, and this dress was very easy to wear, so I wore it on a flight and felt nicely put together, if not glamorous and alluring. I read many reviews about the extra long straps. I ended up crossing them in the back and tying around my waist, just to give the dress a little more shape. Otherwise, it's very sack-like. Belting it like that definitely made it more flattering, but I would not rent again.

Cute & Flowy, but not Parker-level special
I love Parker but this one just didn't do it for me. It was fine for a dinner out on vacation, but it didn't make me feel sensational like I usually do in Parker clothes. I will say, it was cute and very light and easy to wear - EXCEPT the modest snap at the chest is not, like most chest snaps, built for bustier builds. Be prepared for it to pop open at the slightest provocation. Thankfully, even popped open it wasn't a true wardrobe malfunction, just showed way more cleavage than I needed to expose my brother-in-law to.

Basic as basic can be
If you need to throw something on to run errands, this is your dress. Super casual, nothing luxurious about it. Smocked top not flattering on larger chests.

Very low cut but comfortable
I'm a 4 or a 6 but my experience with most RTR dresses is to go with a 6 otherwise the side zips are unmanageable for me (larger chest). This one I should have gone with a S instead of a medium. It just looked too baggy to be flattering. It's extremely low cut, which I don't mind generally, but it was too much with the overall look being baggy. A S may have fit better in the chest and I probably wouldn't have pinned it.

Flattering and comfortable
I am between a 4 and a 6 and the 6 fit perfectly, with no struggle zipping it up. It's quite short but completely manageable. Wore it to a daytime party and a wedding reception and worked great for both. I really liked it (but didn't LOVE it)

Simply stunning dress! Best for smaller chests
I absolutely loved this dress and felt great in it. But if you are larger chested and not a person who feels comfortable showing off your assets, this probably won't work for you. It definitely has a corset effect, so your boobs will go up and out. I never felt at risk for a nip slip however. The top is very secure. The slit is quite high, which combined with the top, makes for a very va-va-voom look (which I happen to like). I know other reviewers were uncomfortable with the height of the slit, but I never felt at risk for exposing my underwear. In conclusion, this is definitely one of the more gorgeous and special dresses I've ever worn. It's extremely sexy but still sweet and feminine. A larger size may have cut down on the revealing aspect because the small was a struggle to zip and really upped the corset factor. If you don't have an hourglass figure like I do, or have a smaller chest, this dress will be great without showing too much.

Should come with a can of WD-40 and a full time bathroom attendant
The side zipper is LETHAL. Granted, I have a supersized ribcage so side zippers are always a little dangerous for me. The side zip on this was next level awful. I can possibly get it to zip with an extra set of hands, but probably not without catching myself in the zipper. It's super cute on and I'm dying to wear it, but I may need to pair it with some Depends since the idea of trying to zip this more than once in a day is very off putting. Other than the zipper, it's comfortable, cute, fits very well in the waist and hips. It fits well in the bust if you don't mind looking a little va-va-voom if you're on the bustier side. But I like the contrast of that with the rather plain, girlish style of the jumper. Makes it a little sexy. But the zipper is a hard NO.

Strange fit
Beautiful colors and pattern. High quality material. The skirt was nice and short and had a wonderful flouncy flair. The top part just didn't fit right. It was very low cut, which I don't ordinarily mind, but the top was just loose and ill-fitting and hung funny. I really believe it was the cut of the dress and not my body. Nothing is ever too big in the chest for me; this dress fit perfectly everywhere but up top.

Not for busty girls!
Cute romper but the snaps for the top are so insubstantial, they'd pop open at the slightest breath. It wasn't too small overall, as it fit perfectly in the waist. The shorts part is pretty voluminous to begin with, so even though a larger size might have helped with the bust, the bottoms would have looked ridiculous. Still, it was cute but I didn't get to wear it for fear of a wardrobe malfunction.

Super cute and comfy
The cotton material is thick, but not hot. There is a bit of stretch in the waistband that makes it extra comfortable. The wrap top is very low cut so I wore it with a lacy white camisole that peeped out the top. Might end up buying this one.
