I awore this dark purplish-navy, sequined pantsuit to a fun, three hour, work event at The House of Cards in Nashville. It was comfortable (not scratchy like I feared it might be) and offered the perfect amount of class and sparkle for this unique and mysterious venue. I’m 5”4 & generally between a size 10-12, and both of the RTR sizes fit me well. I honestly didn’t notice much of a difference between them, oddly enough. I received so many, kind compliments on the outfit! The length of the jumpsuit was perfect with the 3 1/2” heels I wore with it. Three things that may be a challenge for other renters - so please consider them… 1.) I have normal length arms, and the sleeves were nearly too short for me. So a woman with longer arms can definitely expect this outfit’s sleeves to likely be too tight at the wrist and/or too short. 2.) Because I had clients and vendor partners with me, I didn’t want to show any cleavage so I had to safety pin the neckline a bit, as it was originally a little too low cut for my liking. Easy fix though. 3.) Keep in mind, this is a pantsuit/jumper so there is one, long zipper in the back starting at the neck. It was a little tough to get off by myself to go to the restroom at the event. For someone who isn’t as flexible or needs an easier outfit to get out of, this may not be the one for you. Overall, this was a great outfit though!

I wish I would have taken a photo of this dress on me because it looked great, but we were too busy arriving late and leaving early thanks to a childcare challenge that popped up. I wore it to my company’s small and intimate Christmas dinner party, and it was terrific. The fabric was high quality and offered just enough shimmer for the holiday season.

I am 2 months post-partum and am breastfeeding...so my boobs are quite a bit bigger than usual. I'm typically a size 6 or 7 in a dress, but based on the reviews and the fact that I am currently in a size 8 or 10 because of the post-baby weight I'm working to lose, I went with a size 10. The dress was beautifully made, but I couldn't get it to zip all the way up, due to my larger than usual breasts. Thankfully, I wore a cute, black 3/4 sleeved sweater with buttons over the dress that covered the unzipped section at the top of my back. So no one actually noticed. Would suggest bustier gals to steer clear of this one because of this. : )

I am 2 months post-partum and needed a classy look for my annual sales conference. I'm glad I selected this dress because it nicely hid my poochy, post-baby belly without being baggy or fitting too tightly. The red wine color was also the perfect pop of color for winter. I'm typically a size 6 or 7 dress, but I chose a Large because of the extra baby weight I'm working to lose. Right now, I'm more like a size 8-10, and this dress fit perfectly. Two thumbs up!

I needed a dress that would be professional enough to wear around my colleagues but also fun enough for a party. I wore this to an evening, dinner & awards event at my company's annual sales conference. Since I just had a baby 2 months prior and still had a little poochy, post-baby belly, I wasn't about to go out and buy a brand new, expensive dress that would only be worn once. Like many of the other reviews state, this dress does runs large, but as long as you plan for that, you're good. This dress hid my post-baby tummy nicely but wasn't hanging off of me either. Pre baby, I wore a size 6/7 dress. Currently, I'm more like a size 8 or 10, due to the ridiculous 55 lbs I gained while pregnant, but I was still able to comfortably wear a size 6 in this dress. I received a lot of compliments on it. The material was a nice, heavy quality, and I felt pretty fabulous for the first time in about 11 months. Thanks RTR!
