For taller girls!
This dress is pretty but runs very large. I normally wear a size 4 and received this in size 2 and 4. Both were way too big for me. I could tell that the dress would look much better if it fit though. The back lacework was much more sheer than I anticipated, so it was very obvious that the waistline sat too low on my smaller frame. It would be perfect for a taller woman ~ I'd say at least 5'6".

Adorable and fun!
This dress is incredibly cute on. I usually wear a size 4, but occasionally need a size 2. The size 4 in this dress was pretty snug around my ribcage though. I would have worn it anyway as it is just really fun and cute on, but I had another dress that was just more comfortable. I would recommend this dress anyway. If you are normally a size 2, the size 4 will be perfect!

Very pretty!
These earrings are lovely in person. They are very pale pink with a slightly smoky effect. They are substantial but subtle. A little bit heavy, but I wore bling dots, so they were fine.

Very lightweight, comfortable, versatile dress.
This dress is very, very lightweight and airy. It is a simple look that could easily be glammed up with accessories. It would be a fantastic option for a formal event in warm weather as the material is so light and airy. There is a great deal of ruching on the dress which is incredibly flattering. It does run quite large. I normally wear a size 4, so I had ordered this as a backup dress in a 4. Luckily my first choice fit as the size 4 was quite a bit too large for me. I think I could have gone all the way down to a size 0 in this style.

Incredibly comfortable and lovely color!
This dress fits beautifully. It is easy to walk, sit and dance in, and the color is gorgeous in person. It is a simpler formal without sacrificing too much wow factor. I normally wear a 4 and occasionally a 2, and I ended up wearing the 2 in this style. It is a great dress for shorter women. I was concerned as I'm very short waisted that the halter would be too long around my neck and the waist wouldn't hit at the right spot, but it was perfect. The dress is not long and was perfect for my 5'4" frame.

These are stunning!
These earrings are absolutely stunning in person! These will turn any black dress into a showstopper. I didn't wear them only because I chose a dress that didn't go with the earrings. Had a worn the simple, black formal gown that was my backup dress, these would have made the outfit. They are very long but not terribly heavy.

Nice pop of color!
These are really pretty, not too heavy, and are great for bringing out the color in blue eyes. I received several compliments and highly recommend.

This is such a pretty dress, but it was just very unflattering on me.
I really wanted to wear this dress, but the cutout in the back fell way too low on my shorter frame making for a very awkward fit. The hooks across the top back kept coming undone as well, which would have driven me crazy during the event. I wore another dress instead.

This dress is stunning in person as it gives you such a shapely figure and is so classicly pretty.
The fit is every easy for all body types. It runs true to size, but order up for a backup as it is snug through the hips. The zipper broke on the size 4 (my usual size) when I was trying it on, but I was still barely able to fit into the 2. The coverage in the chest area was so good that I didn't need special undergarments. Lovely dress!

The stylist was very helpful chosing an alternative when my dress was unable to ship due to damage.
This dress runs very, very small!!! I usually wear a 4, sometimes a 2, and the 6 just barely fit me. It is a beautiful color and lovely, but there is a weird spot in the back where the zipper bends outward, so I couldn't wear it. This is noted in other reviews, but I'm wondering if it was a sizing issue. The zipper may have laid flat for me if I had a size 8 versus the 6. It was tight in the 6 and that may have caused the dress to lay oddly.

This was a backup style chosen by a RTR stylist when the dress I requested was damaged. Great job!
This dress is so much more beautiful in person, and the fit is incredibly slimming. I received tons of compliments, and really felt great wearing it. The material has no stretch, or give, but it was still very comfortable. I usually wear a 4, but I did wear this in the 2, and it just barely fit.

One of my dresses was damaged, and the RTR stylist chose a new one for me that was spectacular.
This dress is really cute and unique, and it was very comfortable. The only problem is that there is a strange "pouf" in the back right above the waistline. I noticed this was mentioned in one other review. I loved the dress, but I decided to go with my backup style as the bubble in the back would have made me self conscious all night.
