I enjoyed this dress for a Speakeasy themed event. It was comfortable, fit was a as expected. Obviously on the warmer side with the sleeves. The back is low cut which is pretty but added hassle of using a stick on bra. Overall it was a good choice. 

I wore for this the Vice President’s holiday reception and it was perfect! Got tons of compliments all night. I highly recommend it. 

Didn’t have size I wanted so I Took advice on comments and ordered the next size up. No sizes around it so that was my only choice. That was my fault for not ordering sooner. It would have been absolutely fine except for the cascade back, it went down very low because of the size and I ended up wearing a teddy under it so that I could wear a bra other than that it was beautiful and perfect 

I wore this dress to a formal 50th birthday party in a beautiful vineyard in Napa Valley and it was comfortable enough during dinner and also for dancing later. The weather was unexpectedly WARM and the event was outdoors, so it was my fault that I picked the 3/4 length sleeve. Overall, loved the dress and color for a gathering in Napa! 

Wear hair up so you can show off the gorgeous dropped back! 

I rented this dress for a company holiday party and felt amazing in it!  It was also super comfy. I got 2 sizes - 4 and 2, and the 2 actually fit better. For reference, I’m 5’4” and 126 lbs, usually size 26/27 in jeans. The dress hit me right below the knees and I loved the sexy drape in the back. I wore pasties because a regular bra would be visible in the back. Perfect choice for a holiday party!  Got a ton of compliments on social media. 

Beautiful and very comfortable dress. I loved it! Ordered a 2, but the zipper really is a bitch and I could not get up it past the seam.   Wore the size 4- Glad I ordered the back up. I wore it to my husband's Christmas party. The fit was good, stretchy and form fitting.  The inside lining is soft, no scratchy sequins or seams rubbing.  100% recommend! I wore it with a low back bra which I liked way more than the sticky option.

It fits me well but midway the zipper is difficult to zip up. I didn't wear it because I found another dress and also I'm not that confident yet with the belly part 🤣. I'll definitely rent it again next time.

Perfect blend of festive and fancy for the work holiday party. Under garments were a bit of a challenge due to the low back, but totally worth figuring it out!

Very comfortable and beautiful dress.  Received lots of compliments.  I loved the color and that is had pizzazz without being over the top. Hugged in the right places without being tight.  Great choice for the November wedding I attended.  I did size down and it fit well.

Got lots of compliments on this. The color is beautiful. You’ll need boob tape. Other than that it’s super comfortable.

I had a baby 6 months ago and I'm still dealing with postpartum weight. When I found out I would need to attend a formal work event I had no idea where to start. This dress was attractive, comfortable and with some spanxs I felts like it was a good choice. Didn't wear it because I was told the dress HAD to be a floor length gown.

Recommend low back shape wear under dress

Wore this to a winter wedding. I did buy a low back bra which can be tricky to find. It was warm, comfortable, and I felt so elegant! The low back adds some sexiness but I liked the conservative feel of it. I'm really petite and was happy with how this dress fit around my shoulders and the length hit just right. 

I wore this for a New Years black tie wedding and it was perfect! I ordered both size 2 and 4, both fit, but ended up wearing size 2 because I felt like it fit better on top. I felt glamorous and had many compliments on this dress! It was incredibly comfortable to wear and stretchy material. Highly recommended!

The 6 (my usual size) fit, but the 8 hung a little better and it was easier to move in. I was able to wear a bra with an extender strap to make it backless. The zipper was a little tricky because of the sequins and didn't lie perfectly flat but overall I loved it.

This dress was great. I was worried it would be itchy because of the sequins, but it wasn't! Very soft on the inside. Fit was great. 

The dress fit perfectly and was comfortable. Wore it outdoors for a NYE cocktail party when the weather was 55-60 degrees and did not need a jacket. I'm a 34C and did not wear a bra and had no problems zipping the dress, but the hidden side zipper did take a little maneuvering. I loved wearing this dress and received many compliments on it.

2nd time renting this dress! I loved this dress! I am 5'2" and this dress hit right at the knee. I wore a size 2 and it fit perfectly. The color was perfect for a holiday party and the scooped out back made it sexy without being too over the top. I was also warm in this since the sleeves are longish. The dress is fully lined too so it is comfortable with a little stretch to the fabric. I would definitely rent this again. One note, the side zip is a little sticky because it has to go over a thick seam. It takes some pulling. This is not a fit note, there is plenty of stretch to the fabric. 

The color is perfection. The drape in the back is lovely. Fits perfectly.

I liked this dress enough to wear it but it was not my first choice to rent - just the only one available for my dates. Overall the dress felt like good quality, heavy thicker material but not too heavy and not scratchy at all from the sequins which was great. It zips up the side but is very stretchy & comfortable. I could’ve squeezed into my smaller size (4) but the (6) was more comfortable so I think it’s true to size. Definitely a fall/winter/holiday type dress!!

The dress was fantastic and I got tons of compliments. I forgot to put my spanx on, and I wish I’d worn them…. But the dress itself was great and I’m so glad I rented it. 

I wore this dress for a wedding (paired with black shoes and a black purse) and it fit like a dream. It was ridiculously comfortable from the outdoor ceremony to the delicious dinner to the dance party. I did not wear a bra with the dress and never had to fiddle with the shoulders or the fit. Some fabrics can easily irritate my skin, so I was worried about the sequins...but nothing itched, poked, or bothered me all evening. My only regret was hesitating when I ordered and picking a back-up dress!

True to size.  The zipper was super hard to zip up and the material was a little bunched up just at the bottom of the zipper.  Otherwise very nice.

I got this dress from RTR when they couldn't supply a backup size of my original request and I could not be happier!! I wore it for my birthday (which is on Valentine's Day) and got so many compliments. It was absolutely gorgeous, I will definitely be renting again.  

This fit very well and the color was great.  It was very comfortable.  I have rented similar items from the same designer and have always been happy with the fit. Wore this to a Mother Son Formal and got a ton of compliments!

I love this dress. I sized up because I wanted to be comfortable. It had the perfect fit all around and gave room in the tummy without having an unflattering look. 

Went back and forth between this dress and my backup. Ended up using this because the color was more appropriate for a Christmas party. Had to wear spanx for sure but otherwise it was very pretty. The 2 I wore had a couple sequins missing. The zipper is definitely hard to get up, at first I thought it was because the dress was too small but it was really just the zipper. Got many compliments! 

I picked up the dress in store and only a size 4 was available. It was slightly big since I normally wear a 2 but it was still very flattering and I got lots of compliments. 

This dress is my new all time favorite. From the back. The back was a knock out and my bf definitely agreed. The front fit a little awkwardly, the draping was higher up than expected which made it hang a bit odd on my frame.  Not a huge deal, but I didn't take any pictures facing front since I didn't love the look.  The back however made it all worth it.  I loved the draping, the sparkle, and the photos.  The picture doesn't do the sparkle justice, but for a holiday party at the Breakers in Newport, RI, looked like part of the decorations and loved every minute of it.

The color is beautiful-like a raspberry. Sequins are a bit mat, very classy, not shiny.  Fit snug in the waist but had some draping so very flattering. 

I rented this dress for NYE and it's perfect! So flattering and the back makes it unforgettable. It works w/o a bra but a sticky bra would work too. Love it! 

Loved this dress. Fit was perfect, loved the color and sequins

Felt wonderful all night. Lots of stretch. Back is a bit low, but can still wear a regular bra especially with a low-back adjuster. Side zipper was very difficult to get over the waistline but fortunately stretchy enough that I could put it on with it zipped. There was a woman at the after party so entranced by the dress that she insisted I pose for her in it :P

Love the material.  Wish it had cups for more support.

I loved this dress! I got so many compliments and i felt really beautiful wearing it. I didn't wear a bra because the clasp showed, but i did wear spanx which didn't show at all. I'm always concerned about how my large arms will fit in fitted garments and I didn't have any problems in this dress. Very comfortable fit!

I rented this as a backup for a keynote at a women of Influence event but opted for the less sparkly option. The fit was snug - I would size up if in doubt. Conservative from the front, the dealing in the back is divine. 

This dress hugged all the night places and flowed perfectly elsewhere. I loved the fit and the length.
