Runs Small
Usually a 2, wore the 4. I'm 5'9 and it definitely felt short. Cute dress but size up.

Favorite!
Amazing dress. Typically I'm a 2 but sized up to a 4 for size all over (could barely zip the 2). Love that it's has lined cups. I did need some fashion tape to make sure I wasn't flashing people when I bent over, so the top was a little loose, but definitely needed the 4 to accommodate my hips.

Love the convertible strap
The color is more brown than I expected via photos but it still worked when wearing black.

A bit bulky
This sweater works as long as your wearing something more form fitting on your bottom half. I'd recommend sizing up, but that might just look even bulkier. A bit difficult to get on and off.

Love this jacket. I ended up buying. I wore it with jeans and a sweater but also with a leather skirt. Very versatile. It is faux leather.

The 0 fit well on the hips and top but the waist seemed stretched out. It still fit well and wasn't too noticeable.

Love this material and the back
The details of this dress are amazing. Loved the exit out back. It felt just right for a rehearsal dinner in September.

The 2 fit perfectly with a strapless bra to help keep the dress up. Size up if you're a pear.

Great, stretchy fit
I loved the top of this dress. The material is stretchy and comfortable. I ended up with it because of the awesome fit (it's not my normal aesthetic - it's very plain and I didn't love the ruffle at the slit, but I dressed it up with fun jewelry).

The slip is a little short, but not terrible because of all the material covering it. I didn't need to wear a bra. Great dress!

Favorite dress I've rented!
I loved this dress! It was really comfortable & the length of both he slip and top were perfect for dancing. The only negative thing I can say is that one of the dresses sent was kind of bunched at the bottom of the slip. There is a thick mesh sewn to the hem (I imagine to help the dress lay flat). The mesh on this one was bent, which caused the dress to flare in an awkward way.

Runs large. I didn't really fill out the top of the 0, at all, and I'm 32B. The thick fabric helped cover this. Very festive!

3-d Print and The Back make this dress
I love this dress! A lot of people mentioned that it's a tight fit. I did not have issues with this. I actually went with the size 0 because the back looked like it was sagging in the 2. I am 5'9 and wore 4 in heels. The dress grazed the top of my feet with this heel height. I probably should have worn 3 in heels.

Sleeves are confining
I wore this for my winter wedding shower. I wanted something with long sleeves because there was snow on the ground. The fabric is very crisp/stiff, so the arms felt strange. They do have zippers at the wrist to help alleviate this issue.

Bright and Pretty
Pros: - good for tall girls. You can see in the picture that this actually comes close to my knees! Might be a con for shorter ladies. -The magenta is bright, but not obnoxious. Cons: I can't really think of anything specific. I knocked a star because the dress is more simple than something I'd normally wear.

Comfortable and colorful, may be too long for shorter girls
This dress fit like a glove! The neoprene in combo with the colorful print is very forgiving. The cut outs were just right. I wore a Nubra, but I always prefer that to a strapless. I'm 5'9 and it hit just below the knee, so it may feel too long for girls who are on the shorter side.

Runs small, still an amazing dress!
To echo most, this dress does run small. Couldn't fit the 0 over my hips, but the 2 fit like a glove (with little wiggle room, it has little to no stretch). The neck is high and constricting, so definitely size up if you're bigger on top. I wore a nubra and spanx, but probably could have gotten away with out wearing either, as the construction on top is thick and the bottom is lined. Beautiful, sexy yet classy dress!

Very cool pattern
I didn't end up wearing this dress (but my mom did! That's her in the photo). I can usually wear a 0 and 2 interchangeably but this size 2 was way too big for me.

Great for a small bust
I didn't actually pick this dress. RTR sent it in lieu of a damaged dress I ordered. The 0 was snug and comfortable on top. I love that this dress is A-line, but it didn't flare out obnoxiously at the the hips. Although it's a heavier fabric, it definitely was okay for a summer wedding. I would order again for a winter event and pair with black tights.

A no brainer
If you use RTR more than twice a year, going pro is a no-brainer.

Comfortable, but the fit is awkward
I loved the fabric of this dress- the same scuba material as a Clover Canyon dress, but the peplum and fit were not very flattering. If you're a pear, this probably isn't the dress for you. I'm almost 5'9 and it hit right at mid-shin, so also not a good dress for anyone shorter.

Simple and elegant, easy to dance in.
After seeing others reviews, I ordered the 2L and 4L and both ended up being too large. RTR was amazing and able to overnight me the 0L. If you're smaller chested, I definitely recommend sizing down. I was able to wear 3 inch heels with the long, with a bit of toe popping out. The wedding I wore this to was not black tie, so I dress edit down with some colorful earrings and a watch. I love this dress so much that I want to keep it!
