Cute dress but for weird pouch
This is a really cute, fun dress. It fit me perfectly in every spot but the front. It pouched strangely in the front in between the pockets on either side, which ruined an otherwise fun dress.

Great color and style!
The color is a bold yellow and very striking. The elegant shape and interesting top styling got several compliments. Since I'm short (5' 0"), the dress was long on me, which gave it a retro vibe. I loved it. It almost didn't go back into the bag!

Great top, but annoying sash
This top was a great piece for casual Friday. It fit well and was made from a comfortable, thick fabric. The only downside was the fake sash. The heavy fabric dragged it down and made it difficult hold in place. It added nothing to the top.

"That's the bride's AUNT?!"
This dress is AMAZING. It was just the bit of glamour I needed for my niece's wedding. The fabric is a strange but wonderful thick material that reminded somewhat of a scuba suit. It felt comfortable, hugged in all the right places, and didn't need any special undergarments. It was difficult to return it. I would love an excuse to wear it again!

Great styling!
This dress is unique in texture and styling. The stripes lined up perfectly and beautifully. I received a lot of compliments. The only problem noted in other reviews, was that the lining was hanging below the hemline. I used a pin to hold it up/hide it.

Fun and pretty print
I got a lot of compliments on this dress. It was the best fit of my RTR Unlimited choices so far. I didn't care much for the polyester feel of the dress, but it was comfortable and appropriate for a big day in my office.

Beautiful statement piece!
This is a lovely piece. I chose it to go with a RTR dress for a formal wedding. Some other reviews mention concern with it falling off, but I actually had a lot of trouble getting it off (and my wrists are slender; I usually wear watches and the like on the tightest notch) and can't image having it fall off. I'll definitely keep it in mind for the future.

Pretty and comfortable
My boss, a fellow RTR fan, complimented it. The shape of the bodice was flattering and fit me well on top, and the arrangement of the buttons was fun and diffrent. However, the skirt was too full and voluminous. As I can't go down a size, I would take a pass on wearing it again.

A bit of sparkle for fun
The dress definitely runs large. I was shocked to find the 0 was the better fit. The hemline was lower in the front, which seemed a bit odd, but otherwise it was a beautiful dress. The zipper on both dresses was challenging. Make sure you have someone to help you get in and out of it. Once in it, it was easy to move around and comfortable.

Ready to party!
It was a fun dress! I had the choice between the small and extra small. I never tried the small because the extra small had plenty of give and was strangely loose on the shoulders. Getting into it was a bit of a challenge. I definitely recommend stepping into it. I had tried to rent it in December for a holiday party but was sent my backup choice, so I seized my chance to try again, but it was hot for a May party.

In good company at the company party!
This dress runs true to size and is a very dark blue. It is definitely not purple as it appears on the model. I ordered the 2 and 4. The four gave me more room in the hips but was just okay on the top, so I opted for a snug fit in the hips and a great fit on the top. When two particularly well-dressed ladies complimented me, I told them it was a RTR, and they responded, "Ours, too!" The only drawback was a scratchy sort of irritation at the front of my shoulders, which other reviews mention, too. Still, a great dress!

Beautiful but actually went with my backup choice
I selected this dress months before my son's bar mitzvah. I tried it on and liked it, but I ended up wearing my backup dress. This dress was long on me and the hem hit mid-calf. I'd worked for months to be sure I was in shape for this dress because, as other reviews note, it shows everything (abs, posterior). I liked what I saw in the mirror and will keep it in mind for another event.

Glamorous mom!
I wore this dress for my son's bar mitzvah party. It is gorgeous! It was actually my back-up dress, but I ended up liking it even more than my original choice. As other reviews noted, it is very fitted and has no give. Putting it on was a little scary because it felt like it wasn't going to fit, but once it was zipped, it felt like an elegant glove. It is a bit heavy, but I was comfortable and able to dance as much as I wanted. I got as many compliments on the dress as I did on my son's performance!
