I usually wear a 0 so was glad I ordered it. The 2 was just too big. I went to a Gatsby themed NYE event and this was the perfect nod to the Art Deco era. The front was sexy without being revealing. The strappy back added to the elegant sexiness. The dress was very comfortable and so easy to move around in. I would love to own this one! Being 5'9.5" I ordered the tall and was glad I did. I had strangers complimenting me all night. The perfect dress for the perfect night!

Firstly, and a minor point, the sash for the waist was not included. I ordered the size 2, and it was enormous. There was no 0 available, but I'm not sure that would have even fit. The color is more mustard and less mango--not bad, but not for all skin colors. The shorts extend to an unflattering length, and I have a 36" inseam. I rolled them up and the romper looked better, but I couldn't have kept the shorts there due to the seams. Overall, it was just too big and bulky. The back, which should be the show stopper part of the whole thing is frumpy and unattractive. I'm having trouble adding the photos now, but I will download some shortly to give people a better idea. Pass on this.

I rented this gown for an auction event where I had to dress as a Bond Girl for the evening. It was perfect. The length was ideal; the color is exquisite. The front drops low, but I never felt scandalous. I used fashion tape to secure the gown to my bra so I could still wear a bra and the dress wouldn't flop open and reveal it. The tape held secure the entire evening. I wore a VS multiway bra using the clear straps and used them in a halter style. The best part of the dress is how it moves--you just feel sexy and elegant as it flows around you. The slit is high, but again, never felt scandalous. When I sat down, I just made sure to fold over the dress so I didn't flash anyone. There's plenty of material do to this. Perfect dress--absolutely loved it! Would have liked to try to 0L, but it wasn't available, so wore the 2L

Dress fits as described. Debated for a while between the zero and two but the two had a little more room in the bust. Perfect dress for the Mad Men themed birthday party I attended. Very comfortable dress and I didn't find mysel doing the strapless dress pull-up all night. Sat in place well. Fun, flirty and great color.

This necklace was a huge disappointment--very cheaply made. I wouldn't have paid $5 for it, let alone full retail. Chintzy feel. Poor craftsmanship.

I unfortunately did not get to wear this dress as the size I wanted had a stain on it (and was a little too big if truth be told), but RTR made it right and gave me credit to my account. I tried the other size, but the stitching seemed to be off--it kept folding up and wouldn't lay right--otherwise that size would have been great. The print is much more lovely in person, so better stitching would definitely have been nice.

The design on this dress is absolutely gorgeous--truly amazing. Too bad the rest doesn't live up to the colors. The neck is uncomfortably tight and I have a tiny neck. And the length was ridiculously short--I could have worn this as a long shirt/tunic. If you are short and have no neck, then this might work for you...otherwise, skip.

The color on this dress is gorgeous--the picture does not do it justice, as with so many dresses on here. The seams though--namely, the one at the waist--fall in an unflattering way and don't sit on a natural waist. Dress just felt uncomfortable and unflattering.

I ordered the smallest size and was still swallowed up by it. Beautiful color and design, but way, way too big Unfortunate. I was left scrambling for an outfit since my backup was a bust as well. :(

Wonderful dress! Definitely runs larger--I wore the smallest size available (P) and could have even dropped another size if one existed, but it still worked. The skinny strap was difficult to keep up, especially when dancing. The color is more gray than the greenish color in the picture, so keep that in mind when deciding on jewelry and shoes. The draping is excellent--some of the asymmetrical lines on Helmut Lang can fit oddly, but this one was perfect! I rented the necklace in the picture but didn't end up wearing it--really cheap feeling and unattractive. I was able to wear a strapless bra under the dress with no problems. Could probably have managed one strap on the bra even. Highly recommend this dress--loved wearing it!

Absolutely loved this gown! Will definitely buy it once I'm debt-free. I normally wear a size 2, but I wore the 4--it had better flow and dropped down farther in the back. You will not be able to wear a bra with this dress, not even a nu bra, as the silicon side attachments would be visible, so be prepared for that. The color is definitely tangerine--looks more coral in the picture, but it's a deep, dark, gorgeous tangerine. I went with some color-blocking and wore seafoam/tealish shoes and earrings to match. Worked great! Highly recommend this gown!

Absolutely stunning dress! Quite dramatic--conveys sexiness and elegance all in one. Received many compliments from strangers and friends all night. The dress runs large--I was glad I'd ordered a size smaller than my usual size. The smaller size fit amazingly! The colors in the picture seems quite accurate. The dress didn't ride up at all--stayed in place. I never had to tug on it. Handled dancing just fine! The sleeve didn't seem to get in the way at all--only when I was washing my hands. Overall, a fantastic dress--I would love to buy it!

Didn't actually get to wear this dress from RTR since it had a small stain on it. But, I've since found the dress online. Absolutely gorgeous color--the picture does not do it justice! Think more along the line of a Tiffany blue rather than the more sky-blue in the picture. The dress seems to fit rather large--I wonder what a smaller size would be like. I ordered my normal size based on reviews stating that it's small, but I would have liked to size down. Received MANY compliments--from friends and strangers. Definitely needed a necklace to break up some of the shapeless quality of it. Was very disappointed in the 'sacklike' appearance of it until I put on a long necklace--definitely improved things! Great for weddings, dinners and small get-togethers. Wouldn't recommend it for club scenes or where you will be crowded and pushed around as the silk is rather delicate.
