Loved the Color!
The color of this dress is even lovelier in person! I am a big fan of bright pink, and this dress definitely hit the mark! I would say that it runs somewhat large, and the dress length is a bit long if you are only 5'4" like myself. It is a high quality cotton-stretch fabric, but I did feel that it did stretch out quite a bit by the end of the night. However the dress is definitely figure flattering and subtly sexy.

Beautiful Dress
Loved the fabric and the way the dress flattered my figure! However I would say that it runs somewhat large. There were some comments about the fabric lining being tight around the hips, but I would consider myself pear shaped and I think the small was actually slightly big. The extra small was not available for my event, but I would recommend ordering a size down.

Too Much Fabric
The dress is very beautiful, and I did love the sequins. However I have a small frame and with the added fabric in front I looked to weigh about 15 pounds more than I do. I rented a size 38 and it was too large. The dress would likely be flattering on a very tall, slender woman.

Unforgettable Night!
I wore this dress on NYE and it was the perfect combination of elegant and sexy. The material is thick and stretchy so it is very forgiving. I am just about 5'4" so the dress was quite a bit longer on me than the model, but I thought the length worked perfectly. The dress is also a bit lower cut than the model, and it will definitely put your girls on display in the best possible way! I wore a regular bra without the straps showing at all. This is a fabulous dress for all shapes and sizes, however I would probably recommend ordering a size down as your back-up as I got a size 4 and it was quite large. Thank you to RTR who provided this dress for me last minute when the original style I chose was not available. Great service as always!!!! This might be my favorite RTR dress yet :) (btw my friend is wearing a TIBI dress from RTR as well - was my back up but fit her better than me!)

Perfect for Curves
This dress is very well made, and it is a beautiful color and fit! I wore tights with the dress, and I would probably recommend against doing so because top of the tights did peek out through the lace once in a while, but it was hardly noticeable. Definitely worth renting this dress, it was beautiful!

Great dress, but runs small
I really liked the idea of this dress, and the fabric is thick like well-made like others mentioned. But if you are taller than 5'3" with a shapely bottom you will need a medium or possibly a large. I got this dress as a back-up in a small, and when I stood up straight the dress didn't even cover my backside! I don't even think tights would have helped in this situation. I would recommend ordering a size up!

Perfect dress to spice things up!
The fit of this dress is perfect for those with a smaller chest and fuller hips. Just for reference, I am a 24" waist and 36" hips and the 4R fit like a dream without being too tight. The fabric does have a slight stretch as well, so there were no creases that formed with sitting. I didn't feel like the cut-out was showing off too much, and it added a special touch! As for the length, I am just 5'4" and with 3-4" heels the length of the dress was just above the ground. I felt like the length was perfect for me, but anyone taller who is looking to wear high heels I would probably recommend getting a long dress size. I definitely received compliments on the dress, and it was a great choice for the fall wedding I attended!

Pefectly chunky
I love big chunky necklaces, and this was definitely the look I was going for! I wore the necklace with a black dress, and it was the perfect accessory to give a pop of color and sparkle.

Beautiful Black Lace
I wore this dress to a summer wedding. I would probably recommend wearing the dress to an indoor event since the skirt is a little long and the fabric somewhat thick. I was definitely hot wearing it during the outdoor cocktail reception, but that was my fault. Otherwise the dress fit beautifully and is tailored to perfection! If you are looking for a elegant yet sexy little black dress, this is it!

Form-fitting and beautiful
If you are looking to make an entrance, this is the dress for you! From the color, to the fit and length, it is glamorous and beautifully made. I would recommend the regular size for someone who is 5'5" or shorter, since I am hardly 5'4" and wore 3 inch heels which were perfect. I would also suggest that this is a great dress for women who are curvaceous but have a small bust, considering the top is definitely a little snug. I did wear a regular bra with it and just loosened the straps a little which prevented the back of the bra from showing. I received a number of compliments on the dress, and I'm sure you will too!

I was unable to wear this dress- runs large for size.
I loved the silhouette of this dress, but unfortunately it was entirely too big in the bust. I have a smaller bust and waist in comparison to my hips, and the size 2R I tried on was very big even with a padded strapless bra. Unfortunately the 0R was not available when I placed my order. I would suggest ordering a size down if you are concerned, otherwise it may fit well if you have a larger bust.

Unfortunately the dress was very large, despite ordering a size 2.
I was sent this dress in lieu of another that I had ordered whose size was unavailable at the last minute. The dress is very beautiful, but entirely too big for my body frame. I was sent a size 2R, but the dress fit my body as if it were maybe a size 6. It was very long, even when I wore 5 inch heels, and the bust and waist were very large. I would suggest this dress for a women who is taller (above 5'7") and who has a bigger bust. I think that it could definitely be flattering on a certain body type - just not mine!

The dress was a beautiful color, very flattering fit.
After requesting a size 2R and 4R, I was notified at the last minute that a 2R was unavailable. I usually wear a size 2, and the 4R was a little big in the bust, but fit comfortably despite maybe being slightly too big. Overall, I really enjoyed wearing this dress and it is a very flattering fit. I wore 4 1/2 inch heels and the length was perfect.
