Great quality! Flattering on anyone!

Size worn: None

Overall fit: Small

Rented for: Other

First thing I noticed on the dress was the weight: lots of high quality fabric and beautiful sparkly beads! I was concerned about how heavy the dress felt out of the box, but once on, there were no issues - the weight was evenly distributed and felt just fine! The dress hugs and stretches for a flattering fit. I loved the look and feel of the dress, but needed to have a much larger size than normal for me... I couldn't zip up the size four at all and I'd probably need a size six or eight (I generally wear sizes zero to four, depending on how the dress fits across the back as I have an athletic build). Beautiful, but order a size up if you're not straight and narrow.

Wonderful dress! Fit my curves perfectly and I didn't need Spanx!

Size worn: 12

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Party

Very comfortable and flattering dress. Received loads of compliments and best of all I could wear a regular bra and didn't need spanx - the dress holds you in beautifully. A bit tight in the bust but then most things are for me so that wasn't a surprise. I would guess this dress looks great on most!

The dress was beautiful. Got lots of compliments. The beading & rhinestones were very pretty.

Size worn: 12

Overall fit: Small

Rented for: Formal Affair

The dress is a little heavy but was perfect for the cold weather. Very comfortable and I felt very pretty in it. I would suggest to get 1 size up because it's very fitting but it holds everything in place. Overall, it was a gorgeous dress and I was very pleased with the whole rental process.

Size worn: 12

Overall fit: Small

Rented for: Wedding

I ordered this dress in a 10 and a 12. The 12 was snug but it fit. This dress is beautifully but it is EXTREMELY HEAVY! The dress appears to be very small before it is put on, it stretches alot but if you dont like to be squeezed don't rent this dress. I felt amazing in the dress but it was not comfortable.

Size worn: 10

Good dress - it covers all the curves with ruching to hide flaws. plus the side arm straps hide the part of the arms I hate the most. It is also very easy to move in, so if you feel like dancing at the end of the night, the dress is very wearable

The dress fit beautifully and comfortably. Loved the elegance of the dress.

Size worn: 6

Overall fit: True to Size

Snug, but flexible fit, the folds hold in your body shape for a nice forgiving fit. Detailing along neckline is pretty enough to skip a necklace. Detailing is more pearls and beads with pink and multicolor- tones then rhinestones, but lots of sparkle. bottom of the dress was a little tight, and you could not take big strides (but who does in a dress?!)

knowing I had a top notch dress for a night on the town made me feel so comfortable, like I belonged there. The best compliment was my husband saying he wished he could come with us so he could keep looking at me in that dress...

Size worn: 12

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Other

I rented this dress for my sister in law's bachelorette in NYC. I ordered the 10 and 12, the 10 wouldn't get over my hips, but the 12 went on with ease. I was never uncomfortable, and made me look smooth and curvy. fabulous. The only drawback is that the 12 was a little long at the knee and in the beaded shoulder straps, which slid down all night. but it looked fine! this picture is me with the Bride, in her RTR dress, too!

Stunning, amazing, breath taking, HOT. Just a few of the adjectives use by my hubby and friends when they saw this dress! Rented for a New Years Eve Florida wedding, and was very comfortable in this dress even after dinner! The stretch in the dress helped with that :)

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Party

This dress was extremely comfortable. It was true to size. I received a ton of compliments on it. I did need hem tape because the length was long on my 5 foot frame. I wore a total body spanx under it for comfort and it was perfect. I actually could have stayed in it for hours and been happy.

That I was not able to wear the dress....

Size worn: 8

Overall fit: Small

Rented for: Formal Affair

I was only able to request the dress in one size as stock was limited at the time. The dress runs small...it is "layered" so sort of thick...and it is like putting on a glove. I thought it was lovely, but had to send back unworn..

Nice...

Size worn: 6

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Formal Affair

I needed a dress last minute to wear to a black-tie optional event for work, and it worked out well, I felt like I was dressed appropriately even though I did not want to wear a long gown. This dress feels very heavy and adds a bit of "thickness" to the body, however the ruching somewhat offsets that because the ruching itself is flattering. Overall this dress is OK for the right occassion.

Pretty dress, but...

Size worn: 8

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Wedding

...although I think this dress is very pretty, I felt like it was a little mature for me (I'm 27). It fit well, and it's a very heavy material so I would not recommend for summer or any place warm.

Great dress but heavy and hot

Size worn: 6

Overall fit: Small

Rented for: Formal Affair

This dress was great. A real head turner! It doesn't show off curves very well so I would recommend it for someone who is well endowed. I do not have a large chest and it almost made it non-existent! However, I do have a large backside and it fit that perfectly! I loved it, but it was pretty heavy, Iwould recommend wearing this to events where you will be cool.

Sophisticated

Size worn: 4

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Formal Affair

I wore this dress to a formal affair and loved the dress, although the fit wasn't perfect on me. I had to wear the 4 as my ribcage/chest wouldn't fit in the smaller size (I often have this issue - my hips are small, but my ribcage is not :)), so the straps were too big and as I was going straight from work and ordered at the last minute, they kind of flopped around on me all night. Otherwise, I thought the dress was beautiful and think it's great for a formal affair.

This dress was perfect for a VIP meet and greet event I attended. The length was appropriate and the neckline and beading gave it just enough to stand out without it being over the top. Perfect cocktail dress!

Really pretty but incredibly tight. I usually wear a 0 or 2 and even the 4 didn't fit. Also the material is a little "cheap" feeling to me.

The dress was very sexy but very tight as well. Too tight for a hot summer day and it was hard to go to the rest room in it. I LOVED the service and will definitely be using it again!

Overall fit: True to Size

This dress is wonderful for highlighting shoulders and complimenting curves. It's comfortable and runs true to size. I received many positive comments and one woman, who is always beautifully dressed, told my husband I looked stunning. What could be better? Deciding what to wear for special events used to be depressing and time consuming (not to mention pricey). Not any more!

Wore it for my birthday dinner. I'm 5'7" 150lbs 36-29-38, hourglass in other words. Got size 6 and 8. Wore the 8, gorgeous! Super warm for my Oct 29th bday- didn't wear a jacket. Pearls were a little worn down looked white instead of shiny or metallic. Very snug so I would order a size up. Very flattering. A little shorter on me than shown in the photo.

The beads on this dress were scratched and some were missing, so there were threads sticking out from many places. I was disappointed with the beading, as I felt it looked cheap. The material of the dress was pretty, but I have big shoulders and I felt like they were accentuated by the drape material on the shoulders. It was very slimming, however, so I give it a 3 star rating.

I was so happy to see the dress when I pulled it out of the box...it was perfect for the event I was to attend (a black tie optional fundraiser)! BUT sadly, I could not get the dress to zip over my ample bust. The dress is true to size everywhere but does run tight in the bust. So just know that when ordering. I was unable to wear it. Darn! Super cute!

The pictures do not do this dress justice... the dress looks a little bit big and bulky on the model but I can assure you that is not the case. I rented it for a very high society wedding in the fall. The length and neckline keep the dress classy while at the same time the snug-as-a-glove fit and dropped shoulders are super sexy. The neck line beading is surprisingly beautiful and appreciated. The dress is a heavier material which makes it great for cool weather. I can not recommend this dress enough.
