Great dress for casual or semi casual event
Size worn: 0
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Wedding
I wore this for a casual wedding. I'm 5'7" and 120 lb. The 0 fit me perfectly. Buy a stick on cup bra ahead of time! They sell them at WalMart inexpensively. The dress looked better on me in person than I expected based on photos on RTR. If you aren't comfortable wearing short skirts I don't recommend this for you. I didn't mind at all, but this is not a dress you can really bend down in. Overall I'm really pleased with this dress. It's feminine and surprisingly VERY comfortable!

The beautiful back of the dress!
Size worn: 2
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Date
This was a really great dress. I have a 34 bust, 24 waist, and 37 hip, and this dress fit everything surprisingly well. It was a tiny bit big in the waist, and fitted in the hips, but overall a great dress for an hourglass figure. I highly recommend getting one of those adhesive backless bras though. I didn't wear one and felt extremely uncomfortable. I'm pretty short and it was a perfect length. You will need someone to help you button this dress in the neck. If you have hips, I would recommend sizing up for your backup size. Highly recommend this dress!

Gorgeous, perfect-fitting dress! I felt amazing in it!
Size worn: 2
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Party
This dress could not have been more perfect. I needed something new and unique for my sorority semi-formal, and had heard such great things about RTR from my friends that I figured I would try it. This dress is stunning--modest in the front to contrast the amazing (and non-existant) back! I was so worried about length because I'm very, very short, but there was really no need! It hit me in just the right spot, so be warned if you're over 5'5"...I think you might be in danger of showing off more than leg if you do! The waist was also a teeny bit loose so I threw a black leather bow belt on to cinch it a little more and it worked wonderfully. I could not have loved this dress and my RTR experience any more and I am definitely coming back for future events!

Overall fit: Small

I really liked this dress overall but it was tighter than I would have hoped on the bottom, and photographed a tiny bit sheer, which was bad since I couldn't wear a bra. Great color and cute shape overall, not my favorite rental.

Perfect for a black-tie fashion industry fundraiser! Unique style and great alternative to a LBD.
Size worn: 4
Overall fit: True to Size

I'm 5'6" with an hourglass figure, long torso and shorter legs. Some past reviews mentioned this dress being short, but it was a perfect length for me. I have a full bust and wore it with an Invisible Uplift bra from VS. The color is great for fall - not too bright but not too dark. And the back is AMAZING. I loved that it looks simple in the front with a super interesting back! Would definitely recommend for a special event, wedding, or night out dancing.

Gorgeous Dress!
Size worn: 4
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Wedding
My boyfriend and I have monthly weddings from August until December so RTR is the only realistic choice but it really is the best! I wore this dress for a September wedding and it was a huge hit! The color was perfect for early fall. It's definitely true to size. I usually wore a 4 and it fit perfectly. The waist pinches in at the perfect spot to cinch in your waist. It's not as frilly as the model's photo shows which I was happy about. The back is definitely the best part! The high neckline keeps it classy and the open back is a nice surprise. I also did the Stylist's choice as a surprise and they sent the perfect earrings to pair with the dress! Another successful RTR experience!

I wore it to my birthday party and I loved it. Easy to move and dance in. Top was a little big, but that is because I don't have a large chest. Otherwise, it fit well.

For my 28th birthday, I wanted a dress that was fun, flirty and supremely girly. This dress was it!
Size worn: 0
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Party
I've been a member of RTR since 2009, but this was my first time using the service and I regret not using it sooner! Everything about my experience was perfect. As for the dress, I had a particular silhouette in mind when I was shopping around and this one came the closest to it. I was bit reluctant about the color, which appeared to be a forest green on the website, but when the dress arrived, I was pleasantly surprised to see it had teal undertones -- something more spicy for a birthday party. As soon as I put it on, I felt amazing in it. It fits true to size; there weren't any gaps between my body and the lace straps on the back and the collar wasn't saggy. (I sometimes have this problem with halter dresses since I am small-framed.) Being that the dress fit great, I felt totally comfortable and confident in it. You obviously can't wear a bra, but flower petals will do the trick and the lining around the chest will make them discreet. I paired the dress with gold shoes and earrings. It was a hit among my friends and everyone is "liking" it on Facebook (even the boys). I highly recommend this dress if you're envisioning a fun, carefree night to dance away.

This was a last minute and last resort rental. By the time I decided to rent from RTR for this wedding I had in Chicago, all the top pick dresses were out of stock. As a last resort, I picked this dress and was pleasantly surprised! I absolutely loved the dress. It was comfortable. It fit well and was flattering. And, I received many compliments! I highly recommend this dress.

I love this dress, but wowzos, is it short. I wore this for my cousins wedding and I was uncomfortable. I saw this on the website, fell in love and got it, and I was disappointed when I tried it on. If you are over 5' 9", be warned and be prepared to flash everyone if you lean over. Other than that, it is a great and beautiful dress, especially the back.

I rented this dress for my sorority's semi formal and I got TONS of compliments from all the girls (and guys!) on my dress. I fell completely in love with the color and the amazing back details when I saw the dress online and knew I had to have it. It couldn't have fit me better. It was a little bit short, I have to say, but extremely flattering and beautiful. A great first renting experience!

I received many compliments on this dress, the fit, the style and the color. It does run large. I'm always 4, I rented a back up size 2 based on other reviews and it fit like it was made for me. I'm 5'6", 127 lbs, 36C. Didn't look to busty and was a nice length for me, short but not too short. Rent it, you'll be glad you did. Perfect little dress, when everyone else is wearing black you'll look amazing!!

This dress is really flattering, and the detail on the back is gorgeous. This dress is very short, so just be mindful of bending over, crossing your legs, etc. The waist was a tiny bit tighter than I prefer, but I always run into that problem with dresses as I am apple shaped. The only other thing I would mention is that you can't wear a standard bra with this dress. I wore "petals" as I am small chested. Wouldn't recommend this dress if you are busty.

I ordered a size 2 and it fit perfectly. You do have to wear some sort of pasties, I am small chested so it wasn't too much of a worry though at first I was a little self conscious. The dress itself is very elegant and I LOVED the back - it set it apart from everyone else and just made it fun.

This dress ran small on me... I am a size 4 or 6 in dresses 5'7'' 135 lbs measuring 32 27 37 and it was snug on the bottom half. The collar is ruffled and it stuck up and I couldnt get it to go down which is mainly why I didn't wear it... also the ruffles don'y flair out like the pic but lay flat. Did not love it at all.

Size worn: 2
Overall fit: True to Size

It fit well and made me look very slim. It was great for dancing, and was conservative enough for the wedding, while still being sexy. It worked well on my body type, but if my chest were any larger I would have needed a larger size. The only thing that was annoying about the dress was that the straps for the hanger kept popping out.

Perfect!

This dress was perfect for my Winter Ball formal dance. I am usually a 4 but ended up wearing the 2 although either fit fine. I was a little paranoid about the sides so I ended up putting some tape down and had no problem even though I was dancing all night. I would definitely recommend this dress. I'm only 5'1" so I was paranoid the dress would be way too long when it arrived with it fell perfectly a couple inches above my knee. Beware to taller girls though that might make it a little short on you. The only problem I had were the strings attached so you can put the dress on a hanger, the whole night they kept working there way out the back of the dress. I don't think this would have been a problem if I had known about it because I could have secured them but I wasn't expecting so I had someone watching me the whole night to fix them when they came loose. Just a heads up! It's a gorgeous dress and I'd definitely recommend it.

I loved this dress! It was a big hit and looked even better than I thought it would! It is very backless - the straps in the back are lace, but the skirt comes up high enough that you don't feel exposed. I wore it with sheer black tights, as it is pretty short, but it was great! I wish I had more occasions to wear it!

I am 5'9", 130 lbs and almost always wear a size 4. Other reviews said it ran small but I still fit into the size 4. It was also very short on me but for someone shorter the length would not be an issue. It was a great dress and my husband like it too.

I received tons of compliments from guys and girls. Loved this dress, conservative in the front and sexy from the back. I did wear one size smaller than what I usually do, so I'd get the extra size one smaller. I have a little bit of a lower tummy, and the ruffles provided great camouflage. Wonderful for a cocktail party or wedding.
