Nice thick fabric to keep everything in & stretch for comfort! I’m 5ft 9” and it was a little short for heels (it just dusted the ground without shoes) but I didn’t think it looked bad having my heels show (see photo). Just FYI for taller ladies :) I am also pear-shaped, so it was a little tight in the hips and bigger in the top, but nothing a good strapless push up and spanx couldn’t fix! Wore my usual size without any issue.

This was my back-up dress, so I didn't get a chance to wear it, but felt super sexy when I put it on. My only comment is that the fit is not very friendly to people who are pear-shaped - super tight around the hips and then I actually had extra fabric in the waist because that part was too big. Had to wear a very padded strapless bra to make the top look good too. Great dress though for someone who has different proportions than I do!

Ok, I'll start by saying I LOVED this dress, I got tons of compliments and felt gorgeous in it. Plus I danced all night in it and it was still really comfortable. I liked that the fabric is thick which makes the dress more flattering all around - I'm usually a size 6 and the Medium fit well. My only negatives: 1) I'm a 34C and felt like the fit up top would be better on someone with a bigger bust - was flashing a lot of side boob when I raised my arms, and found myself tugging at the sides to make sure I stayed in. Recommend wearing pasty's if you're small like me, just in case. 2) the Long was REALLY long - I'm 5ft 9" and wore 4.5 inch heels with it and it was still dragging on the floor. Just a heads up!

This was my backup dress, but I ended up loving it for the black tie wedding I attended! The color is gorgeous & the fit is really flattering. I'm pear shaped & it was pretty big on top when I first tried it on, but nothing that a VS Bombshell strapless bra couldn't fix :) Otherwise runs true to size. I was also nervous the 6R would be too short (Long wasn't available), but I'm 5'9" and wore 4" heels with it and was happy to find that it still almost reached the ground. The fabric is thick enough also that Spanx aren't a must, although I wore them anyway. Overall, I felt amazing in this dress & got tons of compliments!

Actually the best dress I've ever put on - the thick, stretchy material works like spanx to keep everything in and looks great. Moms are always very honest and when mine called to tell me how great I looked in this dress after seeing a pic on facebook, I knew I had picked a good one haha. I got lots of compliments online and at the wedding we attended too! (evening wedding at a golf course) Definitely bodycon / runs small - I'm somewhere between a 6 and an 8 and I'm glad I got the 8. Can't say enough good things about this one though!

Don't mind the leopard statue in my photo :) this dress was a swap-out for one I had ordered that got returned to RTR due to a shipping mishap - I was nervous it was too summery for my winter, company holiday party, but the fabric is actually thicker than it appears and after pairing it with a cropped jacket and tights, I found it to be perfect. Definitely glad I sized up. Got lots of compliments the whole night! Ended up loving this as much as the first one I had picked out.
