Fashionable, Fun and Fabulous!
I loved this skirt! I'm very self-conscious about my hips and stomach, so the high-waist on this worked perfectly for our engagement photos. I felt fashion-forward, fun and fabulous!

Comfy and sexy for a bachelorette party in the Texas heat!
I loved this pick for my friend's bachelorette party in Austin, TX. I'm probably between a 6 and an 8 so it was just the slightest bit snug, but really comfortable and sexy without feeling too revealing. As with all rompers, it's not the easiest outfit for quick bathroom breaks, but in general it was perfect for a fun night out in the Texas heat.

Comfy and beautiful - perfect for a summer wedding
The dress overall was great for a summer wedding . Comfortable, light, and beautiful. Though I got a ton of compliments, I had the same issues as most reviewers -- the top is much bigger than the rest of the dress -- I'm glad I brought a camisole to wear under it, and pins for both the front and back.

Very sexy and fun, but a tight fit!
I really liked this dress -- it was fun, sexy, and I got a ton of compliments from total strangers -- but it wasn't my favorite RTR dress. This was the first time I've had to have another size overnighted to me. I waffled between the 6 and 8 a few times and ultimately decided on the 8, which was th right decision. Though the 6 held my birls in a bit better, the 8 was more comfortable. It's definitely snug around the waist (suck it in, ladies!!), and lower cut than what I'm used to, but it was great for a fancy birthday dinner.

Fun, feminine, and fabulous!
I've had my eye on this dress for a long time, just waiting for the perfect occasion to rent it. And what better occasion than an outdoor wedding in June? And after lusting over it for months, it lived up to all my expectations. Yes, it runs pretty small. I probably could have squeeeeezed into the 6, but I went with the 8 and am glad I did. It's also pretty short when sitting down, but it was absolutely perfect for a formal summer affair -- comfortable (with spanx!), and made me feel beautiful, with just the right amout of bling.

Hid everything I wanted it to!
This is the kind of dress that will look good on just about any body type. And bonus -- even with a larger bust, you can go bra free. Super comfortable, flattering and sexy. I wore the 6 and may have even been able to go with a 4. I felt great all night, and was even comfortable dancing the night away without a bra. :)

Great dress for an all white party!
I wore this to a Diner en Blanc party and it was perfect. It's definitely a little on the short side, and has no give at all in the fabric, but it fit like a glove and kept everything "in place" all night. Very breathable. Perfect for an outdoor party on a very hot and humid evening.

This was really cute and very comfortable. Great for a dance club at my friend's bachelorette party!
I loved this dress. It was just as described and everything I expected it to be. The seem that runs diagonal from the hip to the center at the bottom is a little strange, but I didn't think much of it. I could wear a normal bra, and was able to dance the night away in comfort.

Very comfortable and sexy, but ouch!
I mostly loved this dress. The only con -- which most other reviewers also mention -- is that my arm was cut up pretty badly the next morning thanks to the sequins. I was definitely annoyed by this throughout the night and despite all the pros about the dress, I'm not sure I'd get it again just for that fact. However, if you have a thicker skin and can get passed it, everything else about the dress is amazing! I even decided to wear a regular-style bra, and just tucked the strap on the bare shoulder into the dress, so no uncomfortable strapless bras needed. It fit great, looked great and was perfect for a New Years Eve concert.
