At 5'10'' the dress was actually long enough for me in heels!
The color was phenomenal, perfect for the transition from summer to fall wedding. More teal than green- appears more green on my screen, it's more teal in person. The neckline cut was perfect for my broad shoulders, really flattering. The medium size would have been more snug, however the zipper had a defect and was impossible to zip, so I settled for the large, which was a bit big on me. The LONG length was perfect for me to wear a 3 inch heel. The slit was just enough to add a little sass to an otherwise conservative dress. I wore a sticky bra just to have support and coverage in the front, and leave the back open. Was easy to dance and sit in.

Elegant multicultural evening wedding
Loved the open back. My jewelry kept getting caught on the dress. I received a bunch of compliments. It had just enough sparkle. I think the pattern design wasn't the most flattering on top with where the lines/ triangles fell, but overall I think it worked.

Outdoor event on the waterfront, summer evening engagement party
Overall fit well, didn't need to wear a bra with it. I am broad on top, big volleyball player shoulders- the dress was a bit snug around the arms/ shoulder area- which I felt caused the bodice of the dress to fall a little short on me in my midsection vs. elongating my torso. I received so many compliments on the dress and the loose fitting bottom half was very forgiving.

Pretty, lightweight.. But short
Pretty dress, nice color, beautiful back. When I received the dress the button from the top enclosure was hanging by a thread. there wasn't much time before my event- so I had to bring it to a tailor to get fixed. RTR says they will reimburse me- still have to go through the process of submitting the invoice. The dress is a nice light weight for a summer wedding. Too short for my 5'10 body- was lectured by several older aunts at the event while I was dancing. The dress is very forgiving though- the ruffle detail on the bottom half helped hide my full tummy after dinner. Paired it with nude heels- legs for days! And used a nu-bra which worked out wonderfully.

Bachelorette night in NYC- all the bridesmaids were in black and our bride in White- Perfect dress!
I am normally a size 8, and opted to wear the 6, the extra snugness of the 6 added sexiness. It was just low cut enough to show some (not too much) cleavage. It was great to wear a normal bra and not worry about it showing The lace cap sleeves are sassy and sweet. The lace detail on the sides is a nice added touch to the dress.

Perfect for a fall wedding- Lots of compliments!
I couldn't believe I fit into the small! The medium was okay, but just didn't scream PERFECT- I tried on the small and it being a little more snug hugged me in all the right places. I wore a stick on bra (due to the open back) and because the snugness of the dress squished my chest a bit. The bra helped! Paired with nude shoes- it looked like I had legs for days! I received so many compliments, even still as people are looking at photos, they are asking "where did you get that dress?"!
