Snug fit
This dress fit me "too" perfectly -- and by that I mean it was very body con on me. I wore it twice. The fabric is stiff and holds you in fairly well, but know that without foundation garments, every wrinkle and roll will show. That said, I got a LOT of compliments.

Very festive
Size up! I'm usually a small...I wore a medium and it was still verrrry body con, especially on top. The girls were on display. The fabric is a bit thinner than I expected, but nice colors and great for the holiday.

Great pop of color.
Great color, size and shape. Distinctive and elegant. A great pop of color with a black dress.

An updated classic
This dress received many compliments, and I wore it several times. It is short, so be ready for that (as shown in the product photo). A bright, clear color and a classic style. I felt like Jackie O.

Excellent fall transition bag
Soft, quilted leather with subtle branding, this bag has plenty of room inside for essentials. The strap can be worn cross-body or over one shoulder with the doubled up strap option. Loved it as a fall transition bag.

A little baggy
The fit on this was weird and baggy. And, the print is a little much for small framed people. Also didn't prefer how "slick" the fabric was.

Beautiful color, but it is tight fitting
And I mean REALLY tight fitting. I am very fit, but a mother and 53 years old. Order up or wear a significant foundation garment (which I hate to wear, so). I actually didn't get out of the house in this one.

Wore this dress like 6 times, then bought it.
Runs small--I usually wear a 4 and the 6 fit me perfectly. I love this dress so much, I now own it. Perfect for summer wedding, dinner on a patio, work. Pretty much anything. The fabric is substantial (but not hot) and it's lined. Length is above the knee (on me) but still appropriate for work.

Runs small
I wear a size 2-4, and I couldn't get this zipped past my hips. More like a 0. Order up for sure.

Very cute, a little tight
If your girls are on the larger size, you may want to order up.

Very cute. I wore a cami underneath to make it very work appropriate. Loved the fabric and drape.

Runs very small.
I run between a size 2 and 4. I actually bought this dress from clearance because generally RTR's suggested sizes are good. However, it is too tight to even zip and now it's not returnable. I'm 5'4" and 125 lbs.

I liked the style, but it didn't like me!
Fit was great, I loved the style. However, it just didn't look good on my hourglass shape. For some reason the side gathered material made my shape look funny.

A little too ruffly form
This trend of poufy sleeves and ruffles just isn't for me. It wasn't the top, it was me.

Helped me stay warm and comfortable.
Cozy, warm and soft. It has a boxy fit, which I liked. I wore it multiple times. If it had been in slightly better condition, I may have purchased it.

Very flattering, fits like a glove
I got so many compliments on this dress! I would rent it again in a heartbeat. The stretchy fabrics is very flattering. If you don't want it to fit very snugly, order your next size up. This dress will show your belly if you have one and it's the snug size. But if you want to show it off, it's true to size. Will rent again!

Fits like a spandex tube, and not in a good way
I really wanted to love this dress! The neckline, the cutout back, the color, the bodycon shape. But it just didn't work on me. The shoulders had strange bunches at the neckline, the back wouldn't hang straight no matter how I tied and reties the bow and the square shape of the cutout showed my panties when I moved. I couldn't make my DD breasts look good in it. I am 5'4", 123 pounds, with an hourglass shape. It fit me like a glove, so the sizing was right. But it was just wrong for me.

Perfect fit, lovely color
I didn't end up choosing this dress for my event, but I LOVED it! Will rent it again when it warms up a bit! The color is lovely and this dress fit me perfectly! It would be great for work, and for dinner after work. Loved it.

Pretty colors and texture, and great cropped fit
Positives: great cropped shape is on trend, the pattern and colors are perfect! Challenges: the fabric isn't very soft and in fact is a little scratchy. 100% acrylic can go either way--soft or scratchy. This is scratchy.

Slimming look, great fit, nice material drape
This jumpsuit is very flattering! The stripes are slimming and the fabric quality is so beautiful. The neckline is just perfect for going out (not so much for work without a cami underneath). My one complaint is that it was waaaaaaaaayyyyyy too long. Now, I'm only 5'4" but I literally had six inches of fabric pooling on the floor AROUND my 3.5 inch heels! Too bad, because I loved it otherwise.

Beautiful fit, quality fabric
This dress fit me perfectly and got many compliments at an important work meeting. I paired it with a merlot light wool jacket and navy pumps. You could also easily wear this for a casual date with boots and a moto jacket. My only complaint is that the high crew neckline isn't very flattering--but that's a small thing especially if paired with the right necklace to soften it up a little. If the price point were just a bit lower, I'd be buying it!

Beautiful drape to the fabric. Very flattering.
This is definitely a day-to-evening option due to the beautiful fabric and distinctive shape at the shoulder. I loved it! I wear this brand quite often and the fit was a bit larger than I expected but still very nice for work. I find myself waggling between a 2 and 4 in many brands these days. Recommended!
