I am a little narrow and was worried that I would look like I was wearing a beautiful gown that just didn't fit properly...until I cinched the waist with a vintage decco belt and the results were... as close to perfection as I would probably ever get. I felt like a woman, I felt like the Co-Chair of an 1,100 person charity event, I felt my best. I have no idea how I will one up this dress for October Ball 2013.

Crowd pleaser...and warm!
Size worn: LR
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Formal Affair
I rented and wore both the LR and MR over Inauguration weekend. At all events, this dress was quite a hit and I felt utterly fantastic (and comfortable!) in it. I added a belt, which really seemed to complete the look along with the rented emerald clutch and statement earrings. As for sizes, the LR was just a bit too long and grew too big throughout the first evening to be worn again. On the other hand, the MR was surprisingly short on my 5'2" frame...but I was able to get away with it for the second night. I will add that it was surprisingly difficult to find a bra/undergarment arrangement that worked with the dress, but entirely worth the trouble in the end. Would rent again in a heartbeat.

Amazing dress! It fit like a glove and it was so comfortable. I would highly recommend.
Size worn: XSR
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Formal Affair
I would suggest though if you're my height to get the XSL as this was a little short on me and my shoes were showing. Other than that, this dress was perfect for the Opera!

Probably the no stress process. So easy. Great experience!

Couldn't decided if I wanted to rent a dress or not. Really glad I did! I got the long and it was perfect. I felt like the dress hung a little on me so I pieced it with a skinny black belt. Dress was stunning and this process was so easy! Definitely renting again!

I was so excited for this dress and it fit perfectly. It was not made to be tight yet hang elegantly
Size worn: SL
Overall fit: True to Size

I'm glad I got a long. It hit right at the floor with my 2" heels. I did not wear anything on my breasts and used double sided tape that kept everything in pace. Perfect dress.

Stunning but unforgiving!
Size worn: LR
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Formal Affair
This dress is a show stopper. All night people asked me about it and complimented me. It was cold outside and it really kept me warm whenever I stepped out onto the balcony of the party. The problem was that it fits in all the wrong places. I wore spanx and it was absolutely necessary to smooth out my midsection and back. I still felt a little uncomfortable. My breast were too big (DD) for that keyhole. It was a very formal event with my company so I avoided being too sexy and pinned the front. I still felt amazing and I would consider renting it again but in a bigger size and still belt it like I did. Belting is necessary because its a little boxy up top.

Did not end up wearing it but will rent it again so I can
Size worn: None
Overall fit: True to Size

I did not end up wearing this dress but I rented both the large and extra large in long and had I worn one I would have gone with the Large. The dress was gorgeous and super comfortable, just be sure to have a varity of options for bras because the cut out can be super revealing.

Not a stand-out
Size worn: None
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Formal Affair
I didn't end up wearing this dress. It's a great idea, but not meant for women with large busts. It was cleavage city, in a Playboy Mansion kind of way. Otherwise, it was a perfectly nice black jersey dress, but for that same reason, I don't think it's worth the rental price. It had a nice, slimming fit (other than the bust). The material was thick and comfortable. The cutout is quite long, FYI. Other than the Calvin Klein label, I don't see how this dress justifies this price. But if money is no object, and you are small-chested, then this is an elegant, classic option.

Odd Fitting

The seam down the front doesn't lay flat and makes the dress' profile unflattering.

On inauguration weekend it was nice not to have to worry &find the perfect dress, RTR did it for me!
Size worn: ML
Overall fit: Small
Rented for: Formal Affair
The dress was beautiful. I got 3 or 4 compliments on how classic was. The problems I had with it were: 1) It was pretty short. I'm 5'7 and got the long, and it was cutting it close to being too short with 3 inch heels. I wish it were a little bit longer. 2) It was very snug, and extremely unforgiving.

Amazing dress!

Perfect for professional evening events. Very comfortable fit. Depending on how comfortable you are with the opening, you might opt for some Hollywood tape! Overall, I loved it (as did everyone else)!

Pretty but runs big...
Size worn: SL
Overall fit: Large
Rented for: Wedding
The material is heavy, so this is definitely for a colder season, I wish I would have went with the xsL because CK runs a little big in my opinion. This gown is meant for a girl with a smaller bust, there is no way I could have worn this to a wedding w/ my D cup no matter how elegant it was

Beautiful dress - shows everything (curves, bumps and lumps :) )
Size worn: XSR
Overall fit: Small
Rented for: Formal Affair
Cannot tell from picture but it's a very soft beautiful material that flows over your body. Personally I do not think it is very forgiving. I will say that it runs very short. I am 5'6' and the xs I ordered was a number of inches above my ankles. I would also caution that if you have a chest it will show more cleavage than the picture of the model.

Fashion forward!
Size worn: MR
Overall fit: True to Size

I loved this dress, but it was WAY too short. I'm 5'9 and it was literally mid-calf length. I even wondered if perhaps it shrunk in RTR's dry cleaning process. Either way, I definitely should have chosen the ML. The weight of the dress is great for a winter event, and the keyhole neckline is very flattering. I was truly sorry I couldn't wear it.
