I wore this dress to my fiance's law school graduation. It is conservative enough for a family affair but the bright color and lower cut back make it fun! I got soooo many compliments!

The only downside is that it did not come with the sash. I'm very disappointed that RTR didn't check to make sure all accessories were included before sending it out.

I selected a larger size to accommodate the Winter gifts my midsection collected over the past few months. However, I didn't need it. The cut of the dress gives you extra room to sit and dance in. I received so many compliments and was happy with the vibrant colors. It's definitely worth checking out. 

I wore this dress for a day full of events: two bridal showers (one for myself, actually), a fundraiser, dinner and bachelorette party. I felt great all day- and received tons of compliments! I absolutely loved the color. This dress is very comfortable and "flirty". I would recommend to anyone. It's a little short if you have long legs, but otherwise the belt works to for your size just right. I am normally an 8 but went with the 6 because the top is pretty loose. 

I rented this dress for an early evening rehearsal dinner in Texas. The moment I put this dress on I fell in love! It's light and airy, super comfortable, and flattering. The fabric is high quality and flows nicely. It was an all you can eat Tex-Mex and BBQ dinner, so needless to say I ate a lot, and I was still super comfortable in this dress and stayed flattering! (The picture is post-dinner!) I paired it with simple earrings and nude heels.  The back gives it a little something fun also. Everyone complemented me on how much they loved my dress. I'm currently saving up to buy this dress… that's how much I love it! It's worth every penny.  I would have to say it's true to size and the belt helps it fit any body shape. Thanks RTR for another amazing experience!

I got 6 and 8. Neither were at all tight. Waist on 6 higher and a bit better so wore that. 

It fits true to size, comfortable, flowy and light (great for NYC summer). The flows also cover any flaws :)

It fit really well, and the especially nice thing was that it wasn't too tight. The dress made it really easy to dance and have fun with friends without worrying about pulling at it/fixing it throughout the entire night!

did you wear this dress backwards so that it would have a lower neckline in the front?

Got a lot of compliments, it was hot and muggy and the dress was just right - the invite said "formal" but I didn't want to wear long, or black.  This was a great summer event dress.

I like it both with and without the sash!

This dress was so comfortable and the fit was perfect.  It was easy to find shoes to match, the belt was super cute and added a little something extra to it, and I found it didn't need too many extra accessories, because it was perfect as is.  When I received it, it needed a light iron taken to it to get rid of some wrinkles, but overall it didn't wrinkle easily while at the wedding.  It was the perfect dress for an outdoor vintage wedding.  I would recommend ordering your size plus one size smaller as your extra dress, because I ended up wearing the smaller size and was happy to have it.  And did I mention how comfortable it was?

wore this for a wedding. it was flowy and really comfortable. fit true to size at size 8.  

Very comfortable dress, I wore the size 8 and it fit perfect. I was a little worried the dress would be short but at 5'4" it was just right (mid thigh). This is my 2nd time renting a dress and I will continue to keep coming back for all my special events. This was a great rental for a wedding. Many compliments, perfect pop of color! LOVED IT!! You should give this one a try :-)

I rented this dress for my senior baccalaureate ceremony and I have to say I love everything about it! The colors on the dress were so bright and vivid. For my height, the dress was the perfect length. The scoop in the back helped make this classy dress a little fun and flirty. The material is not of the highest quality in the world, seeing as how the dress is made in China, but it was truly not a problem. I recommend this dress

This dress is so easy and light to wear.  With the elastic waist and flutter sleeves it is comfortable and flattering.  The colors are just how they look in the picture.  The one minor problem I had is that sometimes the scoop back showed the top of band of my bra, but not a big deal. Might have just worn a stick on bra if I had thought to pack it so I didn't have to worry about that.. The dress has snaps to secure your bra strap at the shoulders so you don't have to worry about the shoulder straps showing.  I was sad to send this dress back!

I wore this dress for my best friend's bridal shower. It ran a little big, which was good because I run more like a 12/14. It was missing the matching belt, so the dress didn't quite look right, and unfortunately it was too late to get another dress sent out. It did a run a little short, but I received a ton of compliments!

True to size. Very comfortable. Great color. Wore this for a 40th birthday party and got lots of compliments. Definitely good with a strapless bra. Easy to wear. Highly recommend. Flattering for many body types.

I wore this dress to a fashion week event and loved it! It's a fabulous, bright color, love the accent floral, and was a flattering fit. The back is a little bit lower than I usually wear because I have to wear a bra with a back closure so it didn't always stay hidden, but I stopped caring if it showed. For those who don't mind low-back or sticky bras, it's adorable!

Can be worn with a regular bra but may show at times, since the dress does run large. I would say size down! Otherwise, it looked and felt great. 

I rented this dress for my high school graduation and was very happy with it. The fact that it was pretty flowy made it very comfortable and flattering. The back scooped a little lower than I expected, but I ended up liking that. The reason I gave it a 4 is because it was a bit large around the waist. The belt definitely helped, but the fact that the waist was a bit large made the fabric bunch together beneath the belt. Not a huge issue at all though..it's a fixable issue. I would definitely recommend this dress.

This dress is really flattering and fun.  I love the slightly low cut back - sexy without having to buy a special bra.  The only reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 is because it didn't come with the belt shown in the picture, so I just used my own.  Overall it's a winner. 

I wore this dress for the daytime portion of the wedding I attended. Very vibrant! The dress was light and fresh. The size was a tad bit to big around the bust area and sits low in the back. I didn't expect the back to be so exposed so I didn't prepare with the correct bra. Thank God I had a nude color bra on but that only went so far. I suggest wearing a backless bra. Overall, it was a great dress for the daytime. Got many compliments on the color and style. 

I got this for my bridal shower and unfortunately the size I wanted was destroyed by the previous Renter (c'mon ladies, be nice to the dresses!!) so it didn't come in my size. This one was a little too big so I didn't end up wearing it but it is truly a beautiful dress. The colors are absolutely fantastic. The belt helps cinch the waist so it can subtly show off your figure.  I think sizing down is a good idea. Perfect for a shower, outdoor wedding, picnic, night on the town.  Nude heels are perfect with this to show off the legs.  

I wore it to a friend's baby shower and it was the perfect tone. I paired it with a white jean jacket since it was April and it went together well. Almost everyone at the shower asked me about the dress. It's a fun pop of color that I don't normally have in my wardrobe. I didn't wear or need a belt like some of the other reviews mentioned but if there was one drawback, the elastic at the waist was kind of itchy. 

The color is FABULOUS!  The fit around the arms is so flattering; the way it lays is incredibly flattering.  I LOVE this dress!  I'd buy it in a heartbeat if I could...(it did show up without the belt but I don't think I'd have used it anyway.  I added a cute brown leather belt)

This dress was ADORABLE!  So many compliments!  I would love to own this dress. It was perfect for Mother's Day brunch and get togethers. 

Easy to wear, comfortable and the color is striking.  I would love to have this dress in my closet!

This dress was perfect for a fun Summer wedding. I loved the backless detail on it and the color. I got lots of complements and it was great to dance the night away in!

Fit like a dream and I loved how the dress flowed. It was perfect for a work function by gather attention for the color but not the wrong type of attention

I had so many compliments in this dress. It was fun and flattering! Enjoy!

I wore this to my 30th birthday party in June. RTR is great for bold, special occasion dresses like these because while it was *perfect* for my event and I felt special and lovely in it-- this isn't the kind of dress I could wear multiple times per year since it is so memorable!

I wore the 8, but the style is very forgiving-- I could have probably gone up or down a size with little change to the overall look. I was worried that the hemline would look too short with my extremely long legs, but I think it was just right for a party (maybe not for a wedding). 

Very flattering on! I wore with nude shoes and no jewelry. Just let the colors and bold flower shine!

Fundraiser gala with a Hawian theme, need I say more. Great dress! Very comfortable, not clingy.

I should have worn the 4 which fit perfectly. I chose the 6 because it was a little longer but my bra strap kept showing in the back and on one shoulder because it was too big. There are snaps for bra straps but one was missing. Definitely order your size and backup one size up! Paired it with silver strappy heels and voila, perfect outfit. Elastic waist makes wearing the dress soooo easy and belt/sash  finishes the look! Thank you again RTR!

 Runs pretty true to fit. I have a larger bust so the 4 would have fit but was tight around the bust.

The dress fit well, didn't hug anything uncomfortably. Really comfortable and had the clips for your bra straps. Loved the flow that the skirt had and the sleeves had a flutter, too. Different color combination, but I received so many compliments. I really loved this dress. 

The pics do not do this dress justice.  It was fun and colorful.  I was worried the 4 wouldn't fit, but it was great.  Loved it so much, I would like to buy it!  It was a bit above the knee and the hips are flowy, but not too fabric-y

Size 0 and 2 seemed to be exactly the same size. The dress fit really well and would work with most body types as the style isn't extremely fitted - great for a summer cocktail party.  Loved the color and thought it was very flattering.
