Perfect for Italy-runs a tad big
I wore this dress on two excursions along the Amalfi coast and to Tuscany. Got tons of compliments and the Positano orange earrings looked great with this dress. Note that I am usually a size medium, and the small fit me perfectly. Get your regular size if you are busty but size down if you are not. I bought a very similar one at Marshall’s for $49.99 yesterday. Unsure if I will keep it.

Great summer dress
I wasn’t able to bring this dress on my recent vacation because I had so many other great options. But it fits very well and is forgiving with the ruching across the midsection. Will be great for a summer party! I am sending it back NWT.

Sexy dinner dress
I wore this dress for dinner twice on my recent trip to Italy. It is not designed for someone who is busty! The bust line is low and the midsection is fitted. It will look great on you if you have the right body!

Italy vibes
I rented this dress for my daughters to wear on our recent trip to Italy. They are both size extra small. It fit great and looked darling on both of them, but they refused to wear it. Definitely recommend for someone with flair!

One of my fave RTR rentals
I liked this dress so much I rented it twice. The first time I wore it to a fall conference and people told me they had never seen me looking better. The second time I wore it to a holiday luncheon with an animal print shawl over my back. It is form-fitting. When I wrapped the belt around twice and tied it in back, it was particularly flattering on my waistline. Would be great for date night. It is a little bit sexy for work so I didn’t buy it, but I was very close.

Swim cover-up
Live the fish pattern! I ordered a size large and it was very loose. The back is partially open, which made it awkward to wear a bra. This is also a cotton fabric that wrinkles. Worked great as a casual swim cover-up for our port day in Nassau. Got several compliments.

Bottom of zipper juts out
I might be able to wear this as a swim coverup on my upcoming cruise, but definitely not for anything else due to the zipper. It appears to be wired like French ribbon on the bottom and sticks straight out from my hip. Awkward and unflattering. Otherwise I really liked this dress. What a shame.

Unique cargo-type skirt
Great casual fall skirt - longer than a mini skirt with just the right amount of edginess. You need to wear a fitted top to make it look flattering, but there are a bunch of sheer turtlenecks available on RTR that work great.

Welcome fall!
The first time I wore this on a video call, everyone commented on how fall-like it was - appropriate for New England in September. Fits well, lined so you can't see a bra underneath. Looks cool with the Rokh utility midi skirt.

Leopard mock
This fits well but I intended to wear it with the matching skirt, The outfit was just over the top, too much for WFH. And I don't think the mock neck is most flattering on me. If you're looking for a mesh mock with a leopard print, give it a try.

People went out of their way to compliment me at the craft fair and the BBQ fest. Dressed down with red birks. Difficult to go to the bathroom because you have to take it all off. And it runs slightly short in the body with no stretch. I am between an 8 & 10. Glad I sized up.

I wanted to like this well-made white dress, but I think the drop waist was too long for my figure and was not flattering. I tried it on two separate times, but hung it back up in my closet twice.

I needed an orange dress for a lake event. This was dressier than necessary for the occasion, but I tied the straps across my chest and wore it as a strapless dress with flip flops. Huge hit! Cool and comfortable on a hot day, with no tan lines.

Childish
I don’t think this style was age-appropriate. I felt ridiculous when I put it on, so I immediately took it off and put it back in the bag. It is well-made and good quality. It was quite tight on the top, so may run a bit small.
