Nice bright blue color
Fit was true to size. I'm short but would have been fine with heels. The faux wrap on the pelvis made my bottom look a little wide, which looked a little funny. I think a jumpsuit really has to fit perfectly to have the correct effect, so I didn't end up wearing it.

Fun but not slimming
Because the flare starts high up on the abdomen, this does not "nip" at the waist like most peplum tops do. The fit is actually sort of boxy. So, in order to have this look be flattering, you have to wear it with something quite slim on the bottom (pencil skirt or fitted pants/trousers) to balance out the top.

More A-shape than shift
Rented this for work. I'm short (5'2") so was hoping it would be a relatively short, shift shape but it is actually a little flared in shape (more of an A) which was less flattering. Currently I have more of an hourglass figure than usual (32D) from nursing and the top was a little tight. Also, the shoulders are cut in a way that you have to wear a racerback bra or the straps will show.

Great dress for a petite person`
Short, loose arms looks modern and faux-wrap style is really flattering. It is quite short, but as I'm only 5'2", this is perfect mid-thigh length for me (past my fingertips so not that mini). It is the first unlimited piece that I have considered purchasing while I have it at home!

Fun, tribal look
Wore this on vacation. It is loose and comfortable. I'm short and I had expected the shirt to be a little longer. If you are tall and want to tuck it into jeans, it may not work; it would also be too short to wear with leggings. I wore it untucked with coral-colored shorts and it was great for running around on a hot vacation day

Fun details and lots of compliments
I am post-partum but wearing a 2/4 and am bustier than usual and the 38 fit well. I am short and wore it with very tall heels to accentuate that it was a mini-dress but I was hoping it would be a little shorter. Fit is boxy so worked well for me in my post-partum state! Color is a great red, bright but not obnoxious and perfect for the Christmas party that I wore it to.

Gorgeous and flattering even for a second trimester pregnancy
I tried on this dress at the RTR showroom when I was barely showing and it fit well and was gorgeous. I rented it not knowing how large I would be at 19 weeks pregnant because it has an elastic back that was super stretchy, and the bottom is flowy. The dress has just enough sparkle to be fancy but not overwhelming. I'm normally a 0P or 2P, but I got a 4R with a 6R backup. The 4 fit very well, although I might have been able to go down to a 2. In the RTR showroom, I tried on an 8R and it didn't actually feel that big. This dress is so unusually forgiving and stretchy that I think I could have worn any size and it would flatter almost any body type.

I went with the other dress...
I am petite (5'2") and 117 lbs. I found the dress a little long for me. It is designed to be straight and I found it to be baggier than I wanted. I went with the other dress I rented.
