Love love love
This coat is SO flattering! It's not too heavy, has just the right amount if room to wear over a dress or light sweater. Looks amazing button or unbottoned and feels soft and not itchy at all. The lining is non static and pattern and fabric looks expensive i absolutely wanted to keep it as a permanent piece

Very hugh fashion sweater - too wild to wear in normal society
While i love that RTR offers me unlimited options to push my conservative fashion style the thick fur sleeves were comical for everyday wear and the thick folded turtle neck made me feel clausterphobic. I wore it around the house for an hour and just had to change. Would be perfect to wear for a DIY black bear costume

Too big
The size 4 ran too large which caused the neckline and shoulder sleeves to overall not create the a flattering look. The material was heavy and the size down was too too fitted so didn't end up wearing this one.

Very high fashion look
I ordered the size that was available which ran large for me but still fit since the tunic isn't meant to be fitted anyway. Wore my hair up to show off the neck detail and received a lot of compliments! Very comfortable and unique

Cute print
The fit was flattering but beware the sheer neck piece is sheer through the sweetheart bust, I wore it too work and realized too late how on display I was so I wore a black cardigan over it and had my hair over my shoulders to offer some coverage but outside of that it made for a cute outfit paired with black ankle boots and leggings

Work Meeting
The dress was loud and the material was uncomfortable. It was like thin plastic tarp. The print was pretty and I wore it with a black blazer and tights. I would have preferred this to have been in a softer material but it was okay to wear for one day. The fit was fine.

Pink Clematis Printed Dress

Bust: 32DD
Nice print
I was too busty for this one, the buttons were stretching at my chest if I did anything other than stand still. I considered ordering it a size up but decided against it when i found that this was a long button down that constricted my hips and thighs from free movement versus fitting like a dress shirt that hangs more like a tunic from the waist down

Dark Floral Slim Signature Silk Dress
Equipment
Size Worn: XS

Bust: 32DD
Was more flattering on the model
The base layer is not as it long as it appears on the model and the flaps hang outward instead of hugging your torso so it just didn't look flattering on me. The material was thick and I liked the sleeve size. Based on personal preference I did not wear this out but for someone doesn't mind their tops coming to their belt line and flaps it was still fashionable and felt expensive

White Layered Top

Very slimming and received so many compliments
This is technically a dress but I wore it with fitted work pants. It comes with a slip, and though I almost never layer my outfits the slip and dress are of a very light material they hang on you and feel very comfortable. The neck line is non revealing and with the slip you don't have to worry about it being see-through. I wore it with a laced bralette and paired it with an embroidered heel I purchased from lulus.com. Tunic shirts / dresses are my jam so super happy with this one.

Too tight in bust but loved the style! Reordered a size up-just put aside 1hr to press out his baby
This dress is a 100% cotton and very time consuming to press all the fine-line wrinkles out and gave up after an hour of messing with it between an iron and steam press since it it fit but was felt tight in the bust area for me (32DD) and the button detail, though trendy, is non functional to offer any leeway. I have since re-ordered it a size up and look forward to wearing it to a work meeting next week.
