Dress for a non-profit gala.

I ordered the 6L since the 6R was not available. The long was a little too long in the train, so I had to keep lifting the train up to walk. Otherwise, it was a perfect dress. So beautiful.

Great flattering fit

The color is beautiful, the fit is almost perfect. It was a bit long but the right shoes made it work. I love the silhouette and the fabric, which had just the right amount of give.

Absolutely gorgeous dress

I fell in love with this dress! I ended up not wearing it because I wanted to be able to dance at the event and the train was a little long for me (I’m 5’4”) and the fabric is heavy. But it is absolutely perfect either for someone much taller or for an event with no dancing.

Pretty dress

Only issue was how much the material hugs my middle and my shapewear failed me so I wasn't the most confident in the front, however I still received a lot of compliments. The color was so nice! If you're planning to wear high heels maybe consider getting a long in your size. I'm 5'6 and wore 6 inch platforms lol

I Felt Amazing!

I received compliments all night! The color was amazing! The material of the dress is thick, high quality, and comfortable, even in the summer Texas heat. It was easy to move around and dance in. If you're looking for something formal and fun, this is the dress! If you have hips or a nice sized butt, you may want to go up in size for your alternate, just in case.

Beautifully made dress

This was my first RTR, my daughters do it all the time and I thought I would try for a family wedding.I ordered a different dress & 3 days before my dress was needed, my back ups were not available. I didn't want to chance with 1 size so I cancelled and started again. This was one of my options. WOW! It is gorgeous on. It has bias draping and darting that makes your figure look beautiful. When you get to be a certain age, your body isn't conducive to some styles, but this one is!

Perfect mermaid dress :)

This dress is everything. I wore it to an event in Hawaii and called it my mermaid gown. My RTR rental experience was a bit bumpy but the rental itself was perfect. The dress is very flattering and also comfortable.

The dress is very comfortable and stretchy material .I felt like a queen.

The fit of the dress was great, it had a little bit of a stretch to it . The material is a little heavy but very comfortable.

Beautiful color

I wore this to a black tie wedding in Cabo. I loved the color and simple elegance of this dress. I was the only girl in this blue color, it really stood out. The front of the dress is unforgiving so I highly recommend to wear spandex if you need them.

Loved the dress! Got so many compliments on the color. Comfortable for all day wear.

The 0 was very snug in hips but otherwise fit perfectly. The 2 was huge on top but fit in the hips. Went with the 0 and it worked out great. I wore 3 inch heels and the back of dress just brushed the floor.

great for a tall woman!

This was a great gown for a formal wedding in the early fall, I wore it with my own cashmere shawl. the fabric is heavy and didn't wrinkle during shipping or my travel - no ironing needed! I was thinking that I needed the longer length, but it wasn't available and the standard length was just right! The fit was just right for me.

LOVED this dress

This was for my son’s wedding. I had tried so many dresses and then found this one and just loved it. I normally wear and 8 and the 8 fit, but was just snugger than I wanted. I ended up wearing the 10 and then didn’t even feel the need to wear shape wear. Got so many compliments on this dress.

The fabric is very forgiving, doesn't wrinkle easily, and the blue color stands out.

I didn't have a t-back bra so I used a safety pin to pull together the straps and it worked perfectly.

beautiful color!

loved it! I ordered the 6 and 8 and thought I would end up wearing the 8. I got an email that the 8 wasn't available so I chose other options. once this came I couldn't let go of trying on the 6 because of the beautiful color and it fit comfortably! I was able to wear a regular razorback bra and shape wear is a must. I got compliments all night long!

Great dress, still need a strapless bra

It’s a well-made dress and it looks great! The neckline looks like it’s just sleeveless, but it cuts in towards the middle in the front, so normal bra straps show. I ended up wearing a strapless one and it stayed on fine because of how well the dress fit.

I’d wear this dress again!

The fit, draping, and the weight of the fabric was fantastic. It hugged in all the right places and hid the not-so-great areas. I received many compliments that evening and I felt very comfortable sitting, and dancing for most of the night. It was a little long for my height, but not so long that it got in the way walking.

Fun and comfortable gown! Went back and forth between wearing 6R or 8R and chose 8 b/c I wouldn't need shape wear. Comfort triumphed over ego😊

A perfect fit!

This dress was by far the most comfortable that I have ever worn. It complimented me in every way from color, to silhouette, even length (which I swore would be too long). The fabric was sturdy but supple. I looked and felt amazing and everyone around me thought so too. 10/10
