Tons of compliments!
I love my Lilly dresses, but this one was so unique and flirty! I ordered a size 2 and 4, but the 2 fit like a glove so I didn't need to go up. Fit TTS. So many compliments! The bell sleeves were gorgeous but LONG. My only complaint was that they did get in the way of the buffet table a bit, but they were still manageable. Not a stiff dress. Light and airy. Perfect for an outdoor wedding in late spring!

Adorable Dress!
I really enjoyed this dress! Perfect length (with heels) for petites! I usually go up a size in petites and it was the perfect fit. But because it was lower cut and I'm smaller on top, I did have to use fashion tape to adhere the dress to me. Beautiful lace detail in back. Great for a formal affair!

Awkward Zipper
I really liked the style of this dress. The cut is remarkable, and there are pockets! I rented it to wear to a black tie wedding. Unfortunately I was solo to the wedding and did not heed the words of other reviewers. Neither size I could zip up myself. I was bending, leaning, jumping, sucking it in all in an attempt to zip it past the middle band. All methods failed. I finally got the size 4 (larger of the two) zipped but it was too big. Didn't actually end up wearing it and ordered a back-up, but wanted to like it so bad!

Professional and polished!
Love the professional look of this dress for work in D.C.! I'm typically a 2 in previous RTR styles, but this one I sized up due to being a tad tight in my stomach/hips (probably didn't help that I tried this on after a huge meal!). Light-weight fabric, which was perfect for the D.C. humidity! If concerned about hugging curves, I recommend sizing up. All together a great dress that I wish I could purchase for everyday work wear!

Good petite dress, little wiggle room
This was my back up dress and I really liked it! Great style for a summer formal wedding. However, not my favorite RTR dress. Pros: good for petites, had pockets. Cons: the lace overlay tends to snag and get caught on things (engagement rings and necklaces), the back bunches up, zipper difficult to pull up, and a bit gaping around the chest area for us less well-endowed girls. Also, after a filling meal and a few trips to the bar, the dress felt a little too tight! Overall a solid, beautiful dress but with a few downsides.

Great for petites!
Loved loved loved this dress! Great for petites. Only complaints were that the zipper tends to stick and it is a bit snug around the ribcage and stomach. Going up a size was more or less the same, so if you're concerned about those areas I'd move up a size or two. Wonderful navy color, stretchy, and keeps its shape well. Would love to purchase if ever given the option!

Beautiful dress, with pockets!
I wore this Halston Heritage dress for Matron of Honor duties at my cousin's intimate backyard ceremony and it was the perfect length and style for the occasion. I received lots of compliments on this dress, and wish I could have kept it! I went for a 2 and 4 since I sometimes fall between sizes, but the 2 fit perfectly. I usually have problems zipping up at my rib cage, but this dress worked! The pockets were an added bonus! Very sturdy and structured. Only complaint was that for those with narrow shoulders like myself, the shoulders tend to slide off a bit. But I was able to secure it to my bra straps with no problem. Would gladly rent this again! Great first RTR dress experience.
