Love this dress !

I’m 4’ 11” and this dress is a great length. I also typically have issues with armholes being too big but this dress fits well.

I previously rented a size M and it was a little tight on top. Sized up for more comfort.

So cute and easy to throw on

Didn’t think I was going to love this that much when it first came but ended up wearing it everywhere. So easy to throw. The top does cut a little tight by the arm crease so maybe size up if you are bigger chested.

Great everyday dress

Perfect dress to show on, the only thing I could possible say if I’m reaching for a con is the top is snug so it can give you armpit rolls - I did order a M but i think a L wouldn’t be as tight in the arm area

Lightweight with pockets!

Wore this to a golf tournament and it was so lightweight. Perfect for being outside in the heat. My bag ended up being too big to get in so I appreciated the pockets, they held my wallet, phone, and a few other things!

Lightweight but see-through

Very comfortable and lightweight for warm weather. The skirt is see-through so you will definitely need to wear nude shorts.

So close to perfect

I really enjoyed the style of this dress and you can’t really see it in the stock photos but it has cute stripes! The smock on the top of the dress is comfortable but the edge around the neck and arms is a bit tight and required lots of adjusting during the day to stay comfortable. Solid 8/10!

Liked it!

I like this mostly because it had pockets and it was great for warm weather. The top part felt a little short on me so the seam didn't fit at my waist but it wasn't an empire cut either. It might work better with someone that has a smaller bust.

Team RTR Review

This muted green dress is a perfect staple for spring/summer. This would pair well with a white denim jacket and sandals for an easy weekend look. I am wearing a size small and found this to run a bit small in the bust area and would size up next time. The smocking is supportive so you can get away without a bra. Not too see-through.

Not very flattering for my body type

I wanted to like this dress a lot. I think the fit across the chest was not right for me and the big skirt made me feel larger than I am. It was well made though and I of course loved the pockets
