I wore this to my brother's wedding. It was beautiful Fit well. Perfect classy length. Elegant. The beading was a bit worn and so was the inside near zipper. BUT, I got a ton of compliments and it was exactly what the sister of the bride should have worn.

This dress fits PERFECTLY!! I ordered the 8 and it fits like a glove. I have a bit of a tummy and this dress hid it. No need for spanx. It's a bit longer than in the picture though, I am assuming this model is around 5'9 so she has longer legs. Looks Gorgeous on.

Loved, loved, loved this dress. I recently lost 20 pounds so wasn't sure what size to get. I was hoping to fit into a size 6, but got the size 8 to be more realistic. The size 8 fit perfect. I had a hard time with the zipper because it kept getting caught on the inside lining. I received so many compliments on the gown. This was the first time I ordered from RTR, although I've known they've existed for years. My experience has been outstanding. Being able to browse hundreds of gowns without having to go to several stores, and then getting my accessories too was a life saver. The return process was really easy as well. I've got several weddings this year and I will definitely be ordering from them again.

This dress is gorgeous and comfortable! I received so many compliments throughout the night!
Size worn: 10
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Party
This dress is the perfect combination of classy and sexy. The dress fell slightly above my knees and I was completely covered up, which was appropriate for the company holiday party I attended, but the exposed should and curve hugging sides brought out just the right amount of sexy. I'm large chested and the dress made the girls look amazing. Since I'm a little curvier, I was a little nervous about what size to order. The size 8 fit me just fine, but I went with the size 10 as it hid my belly a little better. Not only did the dress look good, but it was comfortable! I was front and center of a Gangnam Style flash mob and I had no trouble dancing at all.

The fit was absolutely perfect! It never felt awkward although the dress is designed very different than anything I've worn before. The fabric was elegant and the jeweled embellishment added a stunning touch. I have a large rear end and this dress hit in all the right places. My friend on the right is wearing the Adia Kibur pink necklace.

Hi was feeling a little bloated and self conscious before I put on this dress, but once I had it on—I felt great! The fabric is very forgiving and feels good. It fits very true to size and the length is appropriate for professional events, even for someone taller.

Runs small - I sucked it in all night. Rent a size up, and then another size up - especially if you're sitting down to dinner as there's not much give. The size 0 arrived in pristine condition, not the 2. I was disappointed that there's a bead or two missing and the beads are discolored on the 2. The hem fell below the dress - that will need to be fixed. I'm also disappointed that I wasn't credited for that. Nevertheless, lots of compliments! An amazing dress.

I got a lot of compliments in this dress. The fabric feels exquisite. I did wear a girdle underneath, that went from the ribs to the thighs because even though there are gathers in the fabric, I felt more comfortable with it. I'm 5'6" and the length was just above my knees.

The model is a few inches taller than me but I wanted the dress to fit closer to my knee line. It fit awesome! It was very comfortable and elegant. I felt great wearing it! I rented the 10 but also rented an 8 (for the extra $25) and the 8 was a perfect fit. This website is a blessing (especially in clutch situations!) THANKS! ;)

So I got this dress as a backup style to my first choice. Well worth it. I got it in a 10 and a 12, in case it was too big (ha ha). The 12 fit fine; it was roomy, but I didn't want a tight size 10 anyway (big midsection). It was really nice, and I enjoyed it! :) :) :)

I really loved the design and fit of this dress! I especially liked the how the shoulder strap fell across your arm. The dress was also very comfortable and a great length. I ordered a six 6 and 8, and ended up wearing the 6 as it ran true to size. The zipper is very difficult to use (as some of the other reviewers had mentioned) as it gets caught on the material of the dress.

My favorite moment in this dress was when my husband saw me wearing it for the first time. He was the Best Man, and I was in the “audience”. So he didn’t see me getting ready for the wedding.

This was a perfect dress for a cocktail attire wedding. I felt like I outshined everyone and it was because of this dress. Hard to wear a bra or panties in this because of the sleek fit. I highly recommend the breast petals and a very small thong panty. The ONLY problem was that the zipper did not glide well. The fit of the dress was not a problem, I wasn’t trying to fit too much body into the dress. Even off of my body, the zipper was not easy to zip up or down. I will actually rent this one again in the near future!!

This dress was great. I have a 6 month old and it hid all the post-pregnancy flaws great. People were complimenting me all night. I wore the 8 but probably could have gone with the 6 because the sleeve was a little low on the 8. The zipper was a huge pain to get up; it took my husband several minutes to get it up even though there was plenty of room in the dress. But once it was on it was super comfortable and I danced all night in it.

We had box seats at the theatre, so I wanted to wear something special. This dress was perfect. It fit great and I felt like a million bucks! The only complaint is that the zipper was very difficult. I the size 8 I got had plenty of room but I needed my husband and me to hold the fabric out of the way of the zipper, or it would get stuck halfway up. Once I had it on, it was easy to wear, comfortable and stylish. I can't wait to rent again for the next show!

I'm 5'10" and it was the perfect length for me to feel comfortable- short enough to be sexy but not too short at all. I definitely turned some heads!

I run between a 6 and an 8 in dresses and although both fit I felt the 8 was more appropriate around chest area, especially for the event I was attending. The dress is made from great material and is super comfortable. I was dancing all night and didn't have to worry about any adjustments, etc. The ruching hides any problem areas but I wore Spanx underneath anyway.

I rented this dress for a wedding, and what a perfect dress to wear to such an event. It was comfortable and flattering. I will say the last dress I rented was actually was more comfortable (Nicole Miller's lace dress---loved this dress), but I really enjoyed this dress, as well. I also like that the top looked great even though I am extremely small busted---a problem in some dresses. I usually wear a 2, but since I've been losing weight I think I'm mostly ending up in 0 sized dresses. So, I do think the dress is "true to size" even though I wore the 0 dress size. I definitely recommend this one!

This was my first time renting from RTR, and I had a great experience. This dress is fabulous, is actually the size it says it is (I wear a 6 and the 6 fit perfectly) - I was concerned that runway dresses would run small. The only trouble I had was with the zipper. Because it's a hidden zipper, you have to be very careful not to get any fabric caught. I wore this to an upscale fundraiser and it was a hit.
