Amazing dress for taller girls!

Size worn: 6R

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Wedding

I loved this dress. RTR actually sent it to me instead of another dress and I was so happy! It was absolutely beautiful and it flowed really well. The model picture does not do it justice. The color is vibrant! I wore a cropped jacket over it for the ceremony. There is some boning and padding which provided great support since the deeper cutout in the chest area prevents a traditional bra. I am 5'7 and I wore 3-4 inch heels. Beware it is a very long dress.

I picked this as a backup choice, but absolutely fell in love with it. It was the perfect choice for an evening wedding and the color is even better in person.

So gorgeous in person. Never received so many compliments on a dress.

Size worn: 2L

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Wedding

The color is much more vibrant and beautiful than in the pic (bad lighting). It was a little snug on me but once I got it on and adjusted it looked great and stayed in place all night. I wasn't pulling at it or fidgeting. I ordered the 2L, it is long but with tall heels it was perfect for my height, landing about 1/2" off the ground. The draping is amazing and it moves beautifully when you walk and dance. Highly recommended for girls 5'7" and over.

Back up sizes are so convenient!

Love love LOVE! This dress is even more stunning in person. The color is bright and the cut/fit is so unique. I wore this to a black tie wedding and received so many compliments. It's a nice mix up from a plain black dress and is so flattering. You may need to have a smaller chest to wear this as the neck is a little risque but it is so worth it. Will definitely rent again whenever i have the occasion!!

Beautiful, vibrant color, dramatic length, lovely! BUT...

Size worn: None

Overall fit: Small

Rented for: Wedding

This dress is a much richer and brighter coral than in the photos, and I was super excited to try it on! I even bought the hem tape since I knew I'd definitely need it, and a convertible bra that could cross in front. I ordered a 4R and 6R and was concerned about the amount of room in the bust, but the Product Details on this dress said there was plenty of room in the bust. For me, there was not plenty of room in the bust. For accuracy's sake, I actually just took my measurements and I am 34" right below the bust, and 38.5" right across the bust. Both the 4 and 6 were 2"-3" too small--I couldn't zip it up at all past my natural waist. I was super bummed because this dress is amazing and totally unique. It's a perfect color for any skin shade. Just be wary if you've got gals on top! Since the dress is super flowy otherwise, it may be worth trying to go up a size or two. And the slit will probably stretch open quite a bit, so you'll need to be very comfortable with cleavage :)

Too large

Size worn: None

Overall fit: Large

Rented for: Wedding

I usually wear a size 10 and ordered a 12 as my backup, per RTR's suggestion to order a size up. Both dresses were too large. Ordered the regular and was worried the length would be too short, but even with my 3-4" heels the length was okay. Didn't end up wearing for my event though since they were both too large. The cut out in the chest was also awkward, wouldn't suggest for a larger chest, unless you don't mind exposing yourself.

Definitely not for shorter women

Size worn: 6R

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Formal Affair

This dress runs very long. Even with 4" heels it was still pooling on the floor. Also, the slit in the chest was somewhat awkward and did not fit right as it looks like it does on the model.

Gorgeous, but LOOOONG.

Size worn: None

Overall fit: True to Size

I loved this dress, but unfortunately, it was too long. I ordered the 2R and 4R and both dragged on the floor even with me in 5 inch heels (I'm 5'3", so not very tall). I'm between a 2 and a 4 and the 2 wouldn't zip but the 4 fit perfectly. Other than my fit issues I would definitely recommend this dress for a summer wedding!
