VERY wrinkle prone so have your steamer ready. The flutter sleeves hide any arm issues and the bottom half was just roomy enough to allow movement but it wasn't too snug. Very light and breezy material perfect for summer.

Light and breezy, but lined so you don't feel like anything is too sheer. Hid all of my less-desirable parts. It hit above the knee which was perfect for me.

I'm a RTR veteran, and this is hands down the coolest dress I've ever rented. I'm a little bigger on the bottom, and the A-line hid everything perfectly. The tighter part of the waist was high, just under the bustline, so it doesn't hug any pooch around the tummy area (I did wear spanx). I think you have to have the right top shape to pull this off; I don't have any bust whatsoever (size A), so even though the top COULD gap a little if I really hunched over, nothing was ever in danger of showing. I do think this dress would look a lot different if you have a large chest. For me, it hid all the areas I wanted to hide, and showed a little sass at the neckline which I loved. A FAVORITE!!!

This dress is super fun! If I owned it, I'd remove the layer of stiff crinoline in the lining - it's very poofy and has a lot of volume. Both sizes sent to me still had the tags on! I have a size-A chest, and the 4 was a little too tight around the ribs, so I wore the 6. I don't think this dress would work if you have a large bust, but for me it was perfect. The color is true to the photo. I've never worn anything tea length before, so this was a nice departure from the norm.

Guessed wrong on the backup size. I'm way smaller on top (think AA), so I got my regular 4 and the 2. Well, the 4 wouldn't even zip! Of course RTR overnighted the 6 with no problems and it fit well. I think I must be a "5" because it was a little bit looser on top than I'd like, but in the end it looked great. It's a lightweight cottonish material and was really comfortable. The skirt is REALLY full and would be forgiving on pear shapes like mine. The cutouts in back weren't as noticeable on me as on the model which was a bummer, but I wore my hair up so you could see it. Got lots of complements! Thanks RTR :)

Top was very fitted - a plus for me since I am small busted. I am not small hipped, however, so the fuller skirt was flattering. I would have given this 5 stars based on fit and color, but the dress had a slight odor, as if someone had danced the night away and sweated in it. Not the best first impression!

I had to wear the backup size in the smaller size as I am very small chested. Even so, it was a bit large in the bust. I'm a bit pear shaped so the a-line skirt was ideal. Pretty short in a size 4 but it got rave reviews! Very comfortable and easy to wear. The skirt has some stretch in it so I think it's pretty forgiving.

Man, I wanted to love this dress. And I DID. BUT...: I am usually a size 6 maybe a 4 in a forgiving cut. After chatting with the fit specialist, I ordered the 4 and the 2. The 2 actually fit perfectly up top (I am small chested so I needed it), but it was so short my husband had a heart attack. I could have actually worn the 4 since it wasn't too loose to be a problem up top and it gave me almost an extra inch in length, but it was still too short for this type of wedding. Even the larger size came just to my fingertips. So even though I brought both dresses with me, I did not end up wearing it at all. I think it would work great on someone a bit shorter with a fuller bust. The color is great and it would be very comfortable to wear. But if you're tall and over 35 like me, you will probably chicken out :)
