The fit was true to size. You want the top to be as snug as comfortably possible! I stayed away from the statement necklace because I felt the neckline was too high! I think statement earrings are a better decision!

I rec'd SO many compliments. Loved the fit and structure of the dress. It was a perfect length for my company Christmas party, but I'm only 5'2, so it may be a little short for some taller women.

I wore this dress for an MS charity benefit and I received SO many compliments. The cut of this dress is extremely flattering and it's the perfect LBD! I normally wear an 8 or 6 in dresses since I have a fairly small bust. This dress is snug in the bust, and while the 6 fit better overall in the hips and waist, it was too snug in the bust so I wore the 8 and belted the waist to get a nicer silhouette. One warning: the flair of this skirt is fun, but any little breeze will pick it right up so be prepared to hold the skirt down while you're outside :)

Classic black dress, fun shape

Overall fit: True to Size

I rented this dress for my birthday dinner. I wore it with the green necklace that it is shown with. The 6 was a bit tight in the bust but the 8 was too big overall so I ended up wearing the 6. It is such a great canvas to add whatever accessories you want. Since it was NYE, I wore a sparkly jacket over. I loved it!

People were coming up to me all night telling me I was the best dressed!
Size worn: 2
Overall fit: Large
Rented for: Formal Affair
This dress is so gorgeous! For my prom, I wanted to go with a Audrey Hepburn inspired look. So, I was scrolling though RTR looking for 'the one' and when this dress came into view I literally gasped. It was perfect! When it arrived I was thrilled. This dress looks so luxurious. However, I would have to say it runs a little big. I usually wear a 0 or a 2 but, disappointingly, this dresses smallest size is a 2. I ordered the 2 and 4 and wore the 2 even though it had about a inch of extra fabric around the waist band. Also, It is worth mentioning that this dress is especially suited for tall girls because it has a longer length. Often when ordering a short dress, it turns out to be scandalous but this dress pleasantly hit mid-thigh. Score! At prom, I received SO many compliments. People were coming up to me all night telling me I was the best dressed. I'd never felt better! Overall, I had a great experience and would recommend this dress to anyone. The only bad things about the dress is it runs slightly big and it is going to be a challenge to top next year! Hopefully, with some wore help from RTR, I will be able to!

I wore this dress for NYE at a club in NYC. I got a never ending stream of compliments.

Overall fit: True to Size

The fit was perfect, with the flare of the skirt it allowed for dancing. The dress is simply made well; it is easy to tell that this is an expensive dress at first look. If you need a classy and simply stunning dress this is not going to disappoint. I paired it with a red belt to add a little color into the mix.

Event was The Perfect Wedding Guide Red Carpet Networking Party
Size worn: 4
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Party
I chose this dress because I wanted to look polished and chic for this red carpet event. I have a small waist and have wider hips and rear so the flaired bottom and fitted waist was a great look. It top of the dress was a little snug for my fuller bust but overall the dress fit well. I paired the dress with a bold statement necklace, textured pantyhoses (similar to the model pictured) patent leather high heel Burberry pumps and a black clutch.

The best compliment I received was being told I had the best dress at the wedding (aside from the bride of course).
Size worn: 2

I loved this dress!!! I wore it an outdoor wedding at a vineyard. I received a lot compliments on it. At first I was worried about the back being too low cut and having to buy another bra for it, but when I tried it on it wasn't low at all. I was able to wear a push up bra instead. I also thought it would be a little but shorter but that was okay. What I also loved was that even though it is modest, the cut of the dress accentuates your figure. I like the vintage look. Its an elegant dress and absolutely worth it.

I rented this dress for a 60's inspired engagment photo shoot, and the dress was perfect. It fit so well and was made of high quality material. It has a little sheen/shimmer in it which made it even more elegant. If you follow the size chart it fits exactly as it says. The classic, vintage feel to it really made it special!

I am so sad to return this dress! I was in absolute heaven in it. The material feels elegant and the dress is so comfortable. You won't be disappointed. The fit - it was a tad too big in the stomach area but tight in the cleavage area (not the dresses fault. I wear a 34d)

Exactly what I wanted!!!!
Size worn: 4
Overall fit: Large
Rented for: Party
Honestly, this dress was so perfect, and exactly what I wanted. I knew that I had to get this dress because the shape of it goes perfectly with the shape of my body. I usually wear a size 6, but it was big in the chest area, and the size 4 fit absolutely perfectly. However, there was a substantial length difference between the 4 and the 6. The 6 was just above the knee, and the 4 was at least 2-3 inches above my knee. What also is not necessarily shown in the pictures of the model is that its a little shorter in the front, and is gradually longer on the sides and in the back - but I think it makes the dress look even better. Also, there were some ironing issues on the hem of the dress, and so I had to re-iron it, but it wasn't a huge deal. If you are looking for a 50s-retro styled black dress, this is the dress for you!

This dress is extremely lovely. Conservative and classy, yet sexy and chic. My husband said it looked like the dress was tailor made for me. I received an endless string of compliments all night.

This dress was absolutely stunning, but I couldn't fit the "girls" into it! Both the 4 and the 6 fit great except for the chest. I ended up trying it on every which way and hoping it would change by some miracle, but when it came down to it, I ended up not wearing it.

I thought this dress would be more structured and fitted. I needed a smaller size in the waist but a smaller size would likely have been too short.

I rented this for a wedding - the shape is super fun and flattering. The skirt is very full but the fabric is thick enough that it falls nicely. Do not wear if there's a chance of wind though - I flashed a lot of people... Paired it with a huge dannijo necklace for balance.

I found this dress to be rather matronly. Not as cute as I thought it would be. It could have been because the dress was a bit big. I ordered an 8 and a 10 as a back up size. The 10 was huge. The 8 fit, but still seemed to be a bit loose. Should have ordered a size down, and it might have fit a bit better and looked cuter.

I wore this dress for a black tie wedding in Miami, Florida. I was worried it wouldn't be dressy enough, but it arrived and the fabric is very luxurious, looks super high fashion. It definitely needs some accessorizing... I paired it with a crystal baubble necklace, giant cocktail ring, black patent leather pumps and red lipstick. I received tons and tons of complements and would absolutely recommend this dress! It is super comfortable and I totally danced the night away in my fun little frock. The 4 fit perfectly. I tried the 2, but it was a little too tight when it was zipped.

I rented this dress for a work event. While the dress on me certainly wasn't as short as on the model, I ended up having my usual problem of the dress being too big on top. Also for those who rent it in the future: it needs to be accessorized with a belt (not for fit purposes, just look purposes).
