A few things briefly before I talk about the dress: I always swear a size 8 from RTR, and most of the time, they fit true to size but Ive had a few be a little bit loose in the hips. With this dress, i found that it was overall a little too big and it didn't give you a lot of shape. The belt it came with was just fabric, so it didn't add any depth to the dress IMO. When i got the dress it had a smell (honestly like BO) and it had fabric tape on the inside where someone had previously used it and i guess it didn't get pulled off. I saw in a review that someone mentioned the slip shows at the bottom and after trying it on, it did (the slip) stick out below the lace overlay. I wasn't happy overall, but I figured i could make it work for our engagement pictures. Lucky for me, the dress photographed beautifully. A lot of sitting pictures, so you didn't see the loose fit. I did receive a lot of compliments from the photographer on the dress, so I could just be picky with the way it looks. I'm giving the dress overall a 4 star since you cant expect all things to be perfect in a rental, and it did its job looking great in the shoot.
