Wore this dress to two Thanksgiving parties, this dress is so flowy and beautiful! I expected it to be more velvety but it’s actually like a faux stretchy poly silk type fabric. I don’t think you should size up like a lot of reviews are saying, there’s some elastic at the waist that would’ve been much too tight if I sized down. If you’re afraid of a lot of fabric, don’t get this one, but I absolutely LOVE a fun silhouette so this was absolutely perfect for me. 

This dress has a lot of fabric and folds and I see why people worry about that being frumpy, but it was fabulous still showed off my curves. I got tons of compliments and felt like a queen in it. I wore it multiple times and it was comfy yet chic. Felt very high end designer. 

Based on pictures and other reviews, I ordered a medium when I normally wear a 12 or 14. The medium was still a lot of material. I’m tempted if I ever order it again to order a small. 

I did receive a lot of compliments, but it didn’t really feel like me. 

I've rented this twice now for two very different occasions (a work holiday party and a funeral) but speaks to how versatile it is for styling. I sized down as it is a good bit of fabric and the waist cinch is stretchy and not restricting. 

Usually wear a 12 or large, got a medium and worked perfectly.

Wore this dress for Christmas Eve. It was cute and comfortable but not the most flattering. I liked the material, it was heavy and flowy but not too thick. I think it could have been better with a belt. 

The fabric is slinky and sexy. The cut it comfy and forgiving. I love the billowy sleeves. One of my faves 

Loved it so much, I bought it! (At a great price too) fit just right. Lux material, but a LOT of it. It doesn’t photograph great TBH because of all the fabric, but with a few tries you get it right. 

So. Much. Fabric.  Reigned it in with a belt. The fabric hand is beyond luxurious.   I have a bigger frame and it worked but this might overwhelm tiny framed folks.  

Really loved this dress. Very modest and perfect for a memorial service. 

Very simple and comfortable dress — and up and over style with lots of pizazz. An ‘80s vibe that is versatile and breathable. Would rent again but not for a work trip: took up a lot of room in my suitcase!

I had three funerals to go to this month and RTR had my back. This dress was perfect, while stylish. I wore with black tights, flat boots or gray booties, and my own belt. It’s true the sleeve elastic was tight, but it didn’t bother me. Super comfortable and flattering, and I received many compliments. Size was good. 

It’s giving Lilly Van der Woodsen. So chic, could be worn to date night or to a party, probably even the office with tall boots. Wanted to buy this one so badly. 

LBD but with character- the silky pleats and balloon sleeves give some interest to this dress

I loved everything about this dress but the sleeves. They are HUGE! I’ve got broad shoulders and a larger chest so the added volume of the sleeves made me feel bigger than I am. I loved the length and the material. I got compliment all day. I wore for work because we had 2 events that day. I added a belt because I felt my waist needed some definition. Liked but would possibly size down next time.

Totally agree w the other reviewer who called the dress witchy - that was my first thought exactly. But I still loved this dress! Nice quality fabric, and very tight elastic (maybe too tight, would go up a size if you're in between)

Fits great. Love the pleats. Throw on and go. Flows. It is see through in bright light but can get away without a slip for darker weather. Doesn’t being the glam but maybe with better accessories. I only wore for everyday so fit the bill for what was needed. Enjoy the sleeves and cinched waist. 

Nothing too exciting but if you're looking for an elegant black dress it's comfortable and chic. Waist is elastic and pleats also make it totally forgiving in terms of size. A little warm because of the synthetic material.
