Looks like a sweatshirt, feels like a sweater
This was a nice layering piece on a cold day

Beautiful color.
Was surprised how heathered/multicolored it was in person, but that made it have depth on camera. Boxy, unflattering shape, but very flattering color so perfect for zoom

Cute, but made my shoulders look huge
This would be great on someone with slender shoulders. There was a lot to like about it, including the overall cut. I normally like my broad shoulders, but in this dress it looked like I was wearing football shoulder pads. I wore a black cardigan to cover them up.

So flattering. I just wish the snap on the back would stay shut. I would recommend this for a daytime party or just feeling pretty doing errands!

Even more beautiful IRL
I felt so beautiful wearing this. At 5'4" I should have worn heels with the petite, but I wanted to dress it down so I went barefoot. Highly recommend! I didn't want to return it.

Pretty, but very loose in the bodice
I really liked this dress, but I was surprised at how loose it was through the chest/ribcage. It made the dress much more casual than I had anticipated. I belted it and it looked much better.

Beautiful fabric
This is much longer on me than it looks on the model. I'm 5'4" and it comes to mid-thigh but it still looks great, just more of coat on me than a jacket. There is only one button to keep the cold out, but the fabric is very warm.

If only I were taller!
This was too long from the shoulders to the waist on me so it bunched awkwardly on my hips. It was lovely material and would probably look good on someone 4 inches taller.

Torso too long, but gorgeous
This is a beautiful dress, but the torso was too long for me so it ended up looking like fat rolls over the waist band. Still had the tags on it. I wanted to wear it because it was so beautiful and such nice quality, but alas, my torso was just too short to make it look right.

Dramatic and fun
It was a little short in the torso, and I have a short torso. But it was comfortable enough to wear for a few hours. I would recommend sizing up. The colored pieces are attached to the black jumpsuit at the neck and flow down. It would look pretty neat if you chose not to wear the belt/sash.

I love the fit of the DVF wraps! I wear a bandeau underneath for work because it would otherwise be too low in the bust.

Skimpy bust coverage
I didn't realize that this was backless, but it is very flattering and sexy. There is no way to wear a bra, even a sticky one because there is very little coverage in the chest area (i.e., lots of side boob).

Glamorous but casual
I received so many compliments on this. I wore it with a white tee shirt or camisole, and paired it with jeans, white jeans, and a white skirt. The buttons are tricky and it is tight through the rib cage/bust. Also it strangely restricts arm movement but was worth the occasional discomfort to look so glam! I was sad to send it back!

Ran small
I returned the XS for the S. I recommend sizing up, especially if you need more room in the bust, which I usually don't. It matched some birthday flowers I received. :)

Sexy slit at neck
I couldn't tell from the photo that there was a slit neckline. It actually showed a lot of cleavage at the right angles (from the side or top). I felt springy and sexy in it, but some might need to pin the neck slit closed. I love renting pieces that are too expensive for me to buy! Thanks, RTR!

Flattering fabric!
This fabric is stretchy but sturdy, making it very flattering. It looked as though it just fit me perfectly, but I think it would adjust to anyone. The colors are bright, which was great for my vacation, and it didn't wrinkle en route. A winner!

Orange is the new sexy
This dress grew on me the more I wore it, probably because I received so many compliments and so much attention. Do be warned: the slit is Very high. If you are wearing control top pantyhose, the control top part may show if you are not careful. I wore it with a belt and booties.

Bright and flattering
This dress was a nice change from my usual gray and black winter wardrobe. It fit very nicely on top and had a lot of room for my hips. The neckline is very modest and the length was appropriate for work, even with the cutouts.

Too big for a petite person
I know that the jacket is supposed to be long, but it was a little bulky and not flattering on me. I have broad shoulders and wide hips but a small waist, and I was swallowed up in this.

Sparkly but refined
One thing I really loved about this dress was the adjustable straps. I have a very short torso, so this allowed me to hike it up so that the neckline and waistline were at the right spots. It is quite long, especially on someone shorter like me. I wore it to a Vegas murder mystery and won Best Dressed!

A little bit of sparkle
I have rented this dress twice. It is really comfortable and I love the tie neck accent. The little bit of sparkle was surprising the first time I rented it, but it was still subtle enough for work.

Beautiful and elegant
I actually didn't wear this because it is a little too dressy for my workplace. It would have been perfect for a date, especially one that was right after work. The material was very nice and it wasn't too long even though I am not tall.

Made me look thick
This dress didn't make my waist look small (it is). The seams weren't flattering, and stuck out in an unappealing way. I just sent it right back as there are so many more cute dresses at RTR!

Weird fit
I sized up based on the other reviews. The waist and hips then fit, but the lower hips (?), butt and crotch area were too big. Just not flattering. The fabric is very nice, and the design is cute, so if you can fit into them, they will be good!

Flattering for short torso
It is very short, which I like since I have a very short torso. I could wear this to work, but it would expose too much (for work) on someone with a normal torso.I thought it was very flattering since it came in right at the waist.

Too tight in the hips for me
This was a beautiful skirt, but looked strange on me because it was too tight in the hips, which made the slit look awkward. It might have been ok in a size up.

Nice sweater, but short for most people
I have a very short torso and this barely covered my waistline. I like that, but it could be a problem for some people, especially when siting down. It is not soft, but is very stretchy and form fitting.
