I've had my eye on this dress for a long time and couldn't wait for the opportunity to rent it. After reading the reviews I decided to size up and get the 8 and the 10 and I'm glad I did. The dress is tight in the bottom and big on the top. The eight fit, but I was very self conscious about it being tight in the butt so I decided to go with the 10 which was very loose everywhere else. A little double sided tape on the shoulders worked great to keep them from falling down. The colors are beautiful and I loved the open back. The material is very thin so I couldn't wear spanks underneath because a line showed where they ended. Also the hem wouldn't lay right. Overall I think it is a really pretty dress, and I did get compliments on it, but the fit was so weird that I didn't get the glamorous feeling I usually get in RTR desses. If you are thinking of renting it I would definitely suggest sizing up and strongly consider picking a different dress if you are pear shaped...there are just so many other dresses that are more flattering for our body type.
