This dress was exactly what I wanted for my office holiday party. I usually wear a 0-2 in most dresses, the 0 fit perfect.
Cupcake style dress and the green color was awesome,
Very very comfortable, thick material, I didn't wear a bra bc of the slit in the back, but I still felt confident wearing it.
FUN DRESS

No cons. All pros: beautiful dress. Back has opening. Sexy and classy! 

As a redhead, this is the perfect green with shimmery gold coloring. The shape was perfect and winched right at my waist. I also loved the open back. 
The only bad thing was there was no lining and the fabric is very light weight so I had a few Marilyn moments when I was around a large fan.

Loved everything about this dress! It is exactly what I expected. Extra info.: When the wind blows beware! The dress is made of a light material so it is likely to fly up and around while you walk in the wind. It does fit snug around the neck but it wasn't an issue. I don't have much boob and I wore a Nubra (purchased from this website) because the back is open. It didn't quite give me a lift or anything but it worked well with the dress and stayed in place all night so consider that bra with this dress. I got tons of compliments all day about how unique and beautiful the dress was. It was a great investment and well worth the rental price!

I loved having 2 sizes to choose from. There were some strings and snags in the 4 but they were barely noticeable. Got TONS of compliments on the dress. All in all, loved it.  Hubby's retirement was the affair and it was amazing. I have long legs and if I bent over, all the goods would have shown. The 6 allowed for more length but changed the fit so i went with the 4. 

I absolutely loved this dress for our company holiday party! It was a great bit of color in what is usually a lot of red and black cocktail dresses.  I got so many compliments and it was so comfortable.  I also ordered a size 4, but the neck was a little high and tight so I went with the 6. Wished I could have kept it!

The dress was beautiful in person! It's lightweight with no lining under the skit. The neckline was a little high and also the back was a little large in the opening. My torso is shorter so it didn't fit exactly right and bunched out a little. Overall the dress was comfortable and I had lots of compliments from it. 

A little big in the chest but to be fair im small chested. There were some gold threads poking out which made the dress look a little unfinished or vintage depending how u look at it. It's short, but I knew that going in. I'm 5'5". Probably wouldn't have been appropriate if I were any taller. Overall loved the dress! 

The dress fit great. I'm a true 6 in most all dresses, and this one was cinched nicely in the waist, and is a great length for a daytime event. I personally believe a belt is a great accessory to accentuate the waist and break up the dress pattern a bit.

This was my first time renting with RTR. I was searching for a dress for my husband's squadron holiday party. Of course, I want to look good on his arm, and I wanted to stand out from the usual black and red dresses that flood the holidays. This dress caught my eye because it was still conservative enough for the event, and a little daring, due to the back of it. I had to find a decent bra for a backless dress. I found those cutlets that adhere to your skin worked well. When my dresses arrived (I got my usual size, and a size up), they were packaged nicely, in a garment bag, since it was my first rental. I tried on both, and the 2 fit perfectly. I wanted to add more to this dress by adding a gold belt, but it didn't look right once I had everything put together. The dress was enough to stand out. :) The material is a bit scratchy, but not overwhelming. There were some "threads" peeking out from the hem, and arm holes, but nothing too distracting. The colour was a bit darker in person, but I noticed that it probably has to do with how many times it has been used (I rented another dress recently, and one dress was darker than the other.). I would definitely recommend this dress for petite ladies: it wasn't too long, and wasn't too short. 

Comfortable and easy to move-in, fabric wasn't as luxe as I was hoping. The back opens and is pretty, but can also look like you just forgot to zip yourself up! Perfect length for an event where you don't want  to show too much leg. 

I rented this dress for a cocktail party. I usually wear a size 2 and this dress runs true to size. I am 5'2 inches and the dress hits below the knee in a very flattering way. It was very classy yet super comfortable :)

I got this for holiday parties and NYE.  The material was very thin (and a bit itchy) and the dress isn't lined so I had to wear thick tights and a blazer with it to stay warm.  The hem was also a bit sloppy and kept curling up during the night.  Fun design idea and shimmery color but not my favorite.  

Adorable dress with a gorgeous pattern, it really is eye catching in person.

This dress wasn't my first pick but it definitely won me over. I think the slit in the back was what got me. Plus it was a classic dress which was exactly what I was looking for. The dress fit perfect until I got through my first plate of food. It got a little tight, not to bad though. I did get a lot of compliments (: It wasn't a thick material like I thought it was which was perfect for me since I'm in Florida and it was about 80 degrees. 
The one thing I didn't like was that the dress seemed to have a few strings hanging off. 

It fit fabulously.  Showed off all the right curves (boobs, waist, butt) and did a great job of hiding the wrong one (tummy).  The green and gold combo are beautiful.  Wore it for New Years Eve with a little collar necklace and gold clutch.  It runs a little small - I fit in the size 6 and it looked good, but it cut into my armpits so I ended up switching into the backup size 8 for comfort.

This was a backup dress but I loved the fabric in person!  I didn't realize it had a bit of an open back, but it was fine.  Also I normally wear a size 2 and would have preferred that size, but this one worked fine too.  A fun holiday dress!

I wore this dress to dinner with my family and friends on Christmas! I absolutely loved the color and detail in the fabric. The fit is very easy and true to size. I did not wear a bra with this dress, since it does have an open back. It can be worn with a NuBra as well. I definitely recommend this style to anyone interested in an easy style that will get them many compliments! 

This is such a cute and festive style! Open back so if you need to wear a bra probably a style to avoid. This skirt is flouncy and short as well so if you are tall it will be a mini. Loved the fabric of this and the comfortable fit!

You look so pretty in this dress.  I rarely comment but just couldn't skip by without saying it :) 

This dress was perfect for my engagement photos! The fit was perfect and this was my first time with RTR, and I loved the experience! The opening in the back was a great sexy accent to the dress! I would definitely recommend it. My only thing was the day of my photo shoot it was windy so I had a Marilyn Monroe moment! ;)

I rented this dress to wear to a winter wedding.  It ended up being too short/shiny to wear to the wedding, but was an absolutely perfect New Year's dress.  I'm quite tall so I imagine it would work on a slightly smaller person, but on me it was way way too short to wear with anything but very opaque black tights to tone it down a bit.  I had to go down a size because my chest was not quite big enough to fill up the top.  People asked me all night where I got the dress and I felt like a million bucks - big success!

It's hard to tell from the photos, but the dress is a shiny jacquard print (there is no beading). This is a stunning (yet simple) dress that will definitely make you stand out from the crowd. Ladies with a small bust (I'm a 34A) be warned that the dress is constructed for someone with a slightly fuller bust, but it still looks fantastic with the right bra.

This was a perfect party dress.  The fabric is luxurious and unique.  Breathing, eating, sitting, and dancing are all possible in this dress.  I originally thought the flared skirt would feel bulky, but it was very flattering.  The dress was a head-turner, it made for a fabulous night.  I would love to wear the dress again.  Yay RTR- I spoke with many gals in the restroom about the origin of my dress, as they all wanted one....

This photo is amazing! The dress is perfect 

I am soooo in love with this dress. I wore it for my engagement photos in Time Square. It's definitely a head turner. I felt like a barbie doll in this dress. I would love to rent this dress and wear it again:-)
