This was for my sorority formal, so I wanted something that would stick out from my sisters!
This dress was great! The fit between the top and the skirt was different though. I could have used the bigger size I rented to rid of the wrinkling in the skirt, but I needed the smaller size to fit my back better. At first, the hook and eye wouldn't stay connected, but that was fixed by squeezing the hooks together. I definitely loved the entire night in this dress!

The event was the first time I was meeting my boyfriend's friends. I made a great impression!
The sleeve was very flowy. I had to make sure I always had it tucked underneath my arm during dinner. The body of the dress fit great! It wasn't a tight, bodycon dress by any means, but it still flattered every curve.

I wore this dress for a DisneyBounding party. (I was Hades.) We even went to Magic Kingdom after.
Unfortunately, my size (a 10) was not in stock, so I had to order the largest size possible (an 8) and hope that I had lost enough weight at work to fit in the dress. It wasn't a perfect fit, but I was able to make do for the one day. The only other downside to the dress (besides it being a smudge too small for me to begin with) was that the skirt tended to twist to the right, bringing the left-side seam to the front. Now, the reason why I marked this as "Runs large" is because I was able to wear it anyway. Think about it, a girl who normally wears a size 10 was able to comfortably wear a size 8 dress for an entire day! (And the zipper didn't even give me trouble on the way up!) Now that's something.

My RTR moment was unforgettable because of literally everything that happened while I was wearing it. My show won "Best Sports Show", I looked fantastic, and the after-party was great, too. I probably would have had a wonderful night in whatever dress I happened to wear, but I felt more confident, outgoing, and noticeable in this RTR dress.
I wore this for a banquet event at work. Ironically enough, the banquet was held at the local zoo. I received compliments all night on how I looked in the dress. I didn't wear a bra with this dress because of how the back was, but I used boob tape and everything worked fine. The skirt was a little short (I'm 5'10"), but I'm also a teenage girl, so I didn't worry too much about it.

This dress was amazing! I wore it to a Charity Ball at a conference I attended and it fit the theme perfectly! The best compliment I received all night came from one of the featured guests of the conference. He told me I looked fantastic and then he asked me if we could take a picture together because he wanted to remember my amazing dress. Of course, I said yes!
This dress fit my body shape perfectly and it definitely flattered my full, athletic shoulders, which is something that doesn't happen too often. The only thing that I could see as a potential downside is that it was longer than I anticipated. There's a sizing box when you order that suggests what size heels to wear with certain lengths. I'm 5'10" and the heels I was wearing were 3", so I was expecting the dress to be about an inch off the ground. Boy, was I wrong! I ended up with a two-inch train and I had to make sure that people weren't going to step on my dress at the dance. Other than that minor detail (and, trust me, I would rather have my dresses too long than too short), the dress was amazing! And I looked pretty hot, so I can't complain.
