Such a cute fall/winter piece
I love this skirt. Perfect with tights and boots and a great winter weight.

LOVED this. Great summer weight dress and supremely flattering. Wore it when it was 100 degrees in Europe and it was perfect.

Loved it, bought it
Obsessed. Rented it for a European vacation and loved the combination of the deep v with the midi cut - made it feel really elegant. I had to have it.

Loved it, bought it
Loved it so much I bought it. I'm 5'6", 36B and pretty rectangular and it fit perfectly, not too tight but with enough structure to flatter really well. Wore it with booties and a long sweater for fall, would be great in summer too. Had to have it.

Unflattering and too big
I didn't care for this. Thought I'd like it but the cut is very bulky and unflattering.

My favorite sweater
Love it so much I bought it. Heavy and thick, perfect for cold winter days, great over a tank with jeans. Obsessed.

Stunner of a gown
Love love LOVED this dress. I am 5'6" and it came to right about floor length - it would not have covered heels had I worn them, which was fine for a house party on NYE. The fit is so flattering and felt great. Felt true to size, not constricting at all. Got lots of compliments.

Size up - think H&M
I should have ignored the US sizes on this, and gone with a 38 since I know that's what I am in European sizes, but I went with the 36/US 4 and couldn't zip it up. Decided not to re-order in another size. Quote my husband: "It's... a lot."

Amazing work-appropriate jumpsuit
This fit really well and was super flattering. The belt cinches the waist and the legs hit at just the right spot to lengthen the legs when worn with heels. I used safety pins so the top wasn't quite so cleavage-y. Love this!
Navy Amanda Jumpsuit

DVF dresses just not for me
I love wrap dresses - well, I love faux wrap dresses. What RTR is teaching me is that DVF wrap dresses are just not for me, no matter if they're silk or knit or what. I really wanted to like this, but it is just not flattering on my shape, which is fairly up-and-down with no real curves to speak of. Might look better on a lady with more hips than I have.

Didn't like the way it fit
The fabric is really gorgeous, but it clung to my hips and butt in a really weird way, and I thought the knee length wasn't super flattering on my frame. A few inches shorter would have been ideal.
