Short and fits small
I’m a 5’8 tall size 0/2 and this sadly didn’t work for me at all. I ordered the XS after reviewing size charts. It didn’t zipper over my 32C chest, even with loosening the back lacing. Also, the dress was mid-shin length on me, not floor length as I was hoping. I sent it back and will wear something I already own for my event. It’s been awhile since I did RTR but was not prompted to choose a backup size at checkout. Maybe a small would have worked, but only an XS shipped.

Great fit, unique color
This is a really fitted dress, but flatters your curves in all the right ways. Agree with other reviewers who suggested sizing up 1-2 sizes. I followed the Likely size chart which called for a size 2 based on my measurements, ended up wearing the 4, and somewhat wished I had a 6 as a backup size. The material is somewhat stretchy, but shows lines underneath so be prepared when choosing undergarments. Otherwise, a real showstopper and still classy given the length.

Sadly, didn't zip across my chest
Unfortunately, I wasn't able to wear this dress for the event I had planned to, but wanted to comment on the fit. This dress really does run small and has very little give in the bust if you have a large chest. Also, if you are above 5'7 or have a long torso you will probably need the long to ensure that the hip darts line up correctly with your hips. For me (5'8, 118, 32DDD - size 25 jeans, XS top, and typically a 0/2 in dresses) a 4L would've been perfect! The color was lovely and the silhouette very streamlined and elegant.

Unique details and flattering fit
The embroidery work on this dress is beautiful and the cobalt color really pops against the white. I typically wear a 0/2, but for my chest (32DDD), the 4 was a better fit. I'm 5'8" at this hit just above the knee which made it a little more conservative feeling than I would've liked, but it still worked for the event.

Emerald green fit and flare
The cut is great for an hourglass shape, but the dress was a little tight in the bust even after sizing up. Maybe it would be better for a smaller bust? Also, as others have pointed out, the fullness of the skirt may not be the most flattering for all. The hem did lay strange in some places, although this seemed to improve through the night. Overall, the dress was a beautiful color, and was fun to dance in.

Stunning dress!
This is a form-fitting dress in a vibrant red-orange, with flattering seaming, and a thick fabric to hold any "problem areas" in. I felt beautiful, and received many compliments. I'd also like to recognize the excellent service provided by RTR. The first dress I was sent had a broken clasp and some noticeable stains. They sent a replacement overnight, with apologies, and a discount code for next time!

Classy elegance
This is a classy, feminine fit and flare cut dress, with a substantial satin underlayer and tulle swiss dot overlayer. It lays beautifully. The hem hit two inches above the knee (I'm 5'8"), making it appropriate for a work Christmas party. The lower cut neckline kept it from feeling too conservative, although I did have to size up in order to accommodate my chest (32DDD), which seemed consistent with prior reviews. I would purchase this dress if I could - it could easily be worn to a variety of events and always be beautiful/appropriate.
Rosanna Dress

Fun, feminine party dress
I wore this to a black tie optional holiday party, and received many compliments. Although it is short, I think the conservative neckline with scalloped lace detail made it feel more demure, and event appropriate. The navy blue is more sapphire blue in person, and quite pretty. The tulle layers require fluffing if you happen to be shipped a newer dress - plan ahead for that. Also, the dress definitely runs big, especially in the midsection, so consider ordering a size down - I wished that I had.
