So elegant and comfortable!

This dress was so beautiful and comfortable that I wanted to stay in it during our long gap between the ceremony and reception. It honestly fit like a glove. The material reminds me of a scuba suit where it was sturdy enough to feel high quality but thin enough to not weigh you down or overheat during an outdoor wedding in 85F heat.

A dream for the long-legged

It's extremely hard to find jeans that are long enough without being low rise and i loved this pair SO much I did not want to return it. There is zero stretch and they're slightly tight around the waist band but the legs are super slimming and they touch the floor with my 5'10 frame. I would recommend going up a size from what you typically wear if you want a little more room in the waist but was extremely surprised to find that the R size was actually a 33' inseam.

Sweet & Sassy

Truly obsessed with this dress. It was a little tight around the ribs but I only received the Medium and was so in love with it, I was determined to wear it no matter the discomfort. Once zipped up though, it actually was a very flattering & comfortable dress. I typically have issues with shorter dresses given my height and was pleasantly surprised at the length! It really made a difference having it slightly longer in the back. Fashion tape is a MUST for the top though since it is quite loose!

Perfect for Diner en Blanc

Semi-perfect dress to walk 1 mile to an undisclosed picnic location. The dress was very comfortable and almost felt like a second skin but was pretty short if you're on the taller side. I did dock it one star because I wasn't expecting it to be shear with minimal coverage underneath. I didn't notice this until I tried on the larger size but ended up wearing a full body shaper under the medium. The large also had a different lining than the medium so I'm wondering if this varies between dresses.

Short & Sassy

This dress is short. So short in fact that I had to cover my lap with napkins when sitting down at the table to prevent flashing. Besides that fact, it was a beautiful shape and quite comfortable. The dress is tight in the bust but has a straight fit from waist down. I also loved the drama of the single flare sleeve. I rented this for my friends bachelorette party in Ft. Lauderdale and got so many compliments on it.

Slimming and sparkly

This is my second time using RTR and my second time going with my backup dress. I'm 5'10 1/2 (that 1/2 is important) so it's nearly impossible to find dresses that are long enough. The 8L in this was actually perfect! Flat footed it hit the floor and hit the top of my foot with 5 inch platform. It may have caused the dress to look a smidge short if you are hoping to cover your feet, but especially since there's a slit in the back, I felt it looked perfect. The dress was a lot lighter than I was expecting for having so many sparkles on it and was surprisingly comfortable! Although it was lighter material it was very slimming- I didn't have to worry about wearing a shaper underneath. I was hesitant about wearing this dress for a black tie wedding because of the level of sparkle but got so many compliments on it.

30th birthday celebration!

This was my backup dress and after accepting the fact that my first choice really didnt flatter my flat chested frame, I was starting to fret after seeing how small this dress was out of the bag. To my surprise it fit like an absolute glove and I contemplated several timed not returning it. Im 5'11 and felt the length was perfect (not too short) and did not have a need to wear a bra. This dress was completely stunning and for being so form fitting was surpringly comfortable! I received so many compliments at dinner from people just walking by our table. It really made me feel so special celebrating my 30th birthday.
