I rented this for a museum gala and received many compliments throughout the evening. I have a curvy shape and the xs was a good fit (the small was my backup but I didn't even try it on). It's not form-fitting (think tailored toga) and was super comfortable to wear all evening, but the higher slit and bare shoulder keep it from looking matronly. I wore a strapless bra but did use a little fashion tape on the sleeveless side just to make sure the bra wouldn't show as there was a small gap near my underarm. And one of the best parts: no shapewear needed with this one! At 5'3" and with 3" heels, the long side was a good length but I did need to hold it up a little when going up stairs so it didn't get tangled in my heel. I highly recommend trying out this look for your next event! It's a fun change from a traditional LBD.

This was such a fun dress! Wore to a formal wedding and was much more interesting than your basic black dress but not too much white to be inappropriate. Got tons of complements and it was very fun to dance in (my husband even commented that it looked cute on the dance floor - and he doesn't notice much). The fabric has a nice sheen to it and the fit was pretty true. I wore a halter bra and normal underwear - no spanx needed. Getting it on and off was a little challenging for this curvy gal, and I had to put it on over my head - keep this in mind if you have a fancy up-do as you'll probably need a little assistance to make sure you don't ruin anything.

This was a very easy dress to wear! Comfortable and able to wear "normal" undergarments. The size 2 (my usual size) was the best fit, albeit snug on top (I'm a 32DD and, as others have mentioned, there's no give). However, the tulle was so wrinkled that it was unwearable, even after spending 30 minutes trying to steam it. The size 4 still looked nice and with a quick steam the tulle looked fine. If you don't have access to a steamer I'm not sure this is a good choice. I preemptively pinned the zipper to ensure there were no wardrobe malfunctions - thanks RTR community for providing that tip! Overall it was a nice dress and a good choice for a more conservative formal event when you want more than a basic black dress.

Pros: Item arrived on time and was in very good condition. My measurements are 35-27-37, 32 DD and the 2R was a good fit. I got the 4R as backup and there really wasn't much difference between the two sizes. It was very comfortable and I was able to wear my normal bra - just had to lengthen the straps a bit so the back strap didn't show with the lower cut back. My husband loved it and I got several complements while out for a celebratory dinner. Cons: It doesn't photograph super well as the lower part is pretty loose so the angle of the photograph would be very important in order to be flattering. I am also a bit long-waisted so when I sat down it pulled a bit. A shorter waisted gal would most likely find it to be a better fit.
