No stretch
I wore this dress for a wedding and usually wear an 8-10, but should have ordered a 12 because the 10 was really snug, especially around the rib cage/chest area- I'm a 38B. There is definitely no stretch with this dress so order up if you are a larger person like myself.

Dress was very pretty!
Neither the size 8 or 10 fit me. The size 8 was too tight around the bust and shoulders and the size 10 was too big around the midsection/torso area. I think the big thing was that the waistline of the dress hit me at an awkward spot (ie it hit much higher than my natural waistline) so it kinda made the dress look maternity-ish on my body. I liked the colors of the dress a lot and and the material was really pretty. If you have a long waist and are a larger person in general - this dress might not fit you as well as some of the other dresses!

Dress itself was beautiful, but was not flattering on
The fabric was really pretty--sparkly and the colors were bright and pretty--but the fit of the dress and the way it was shaped didn't really sit well on my body. If I had a belt it might have worked, but I think would have been better if it was more form fitting since I don't have much for curves.

Fit was excellent!
This dress fit really well! I am usually a size 10, but the 8 was fine because of the stretchy fabric. I especially liked the silhouette because it really accentuated the waist and hid my tummy. The fabric itself was really unique as well and made it a lot more different than other dresses. Awesome dress- I would rent this again!

NYE 2013 party in KC
LOVED this necklace - I wore it with the "Back in Action Romper" from Twelfth Street by Cynthia Vincent. I got so many compliments on this necklace and it was perfect for NYE with all the sparkle that it had. I also really liked the yellow ribbon detail that it had - definitely made it unique!

NYE party 2013 in KC!
I ordered the M thinking it would be the one to fit, but extremely glad I got the L as a back up because my torso was way too long for the M and gave me some serious camel toe / wedgie action. The L fit great and did not have any trouble with boobies popping out or anything. It was revealing in the front (deep V neck) and was very short in length, but that's what I was going for ;). Overall, this was the best decision I've made so far for the year 2013! RTR is ingenious and very accommodating (they provided dbl sided tape, garment bag for transport, free lipgloss, and return packaging) - next big party of formal event, I'll be searching RTR for another dress/romper!
