“I absolutely loved having the ability to rent and wear this dress. Even disregarding the compliments I got on the dress (all who commented agreed it was such an amazing dress), I felt so beautiful in the dress. It's definitely not a dress or experience I'll forget - an experience I otherwise never would have had with this particular dress. Thanks RTR!”

I should start by saying I've been in love with this dress ever since RTR first started to carry it - I waited not-so-patiently for an occasion to wear it out. Finally, an occasion came up, but when I ordered it I realized it wasn't *quite* fancy enough (it really is less formal in person than it looks in the picture) for the New Year's Eve occasion I was going to, leaving me to go with my backup dress. However, I adored the dress so much I opted to wear it on a couple different outings with friends during my four day rental period, even though it meant being more dressed up than my jeans-and-a-tshirt friends. I can't express just how adorable this dress is! My only complaint was that the straps were a little loose. I put a shrug over it, though, so that particular problem didn't show. However, once or twice I did need to readjust the dress due to it slipping down a little. I'm 5'9", and my measurements are 37(Bust)-28(Waist)-39(Hips); I wear a 34DD bra. Because of my bust size, my dress size tends to vary according to how much room a given dress allows for (which generally ranges from an 8 to a 12). After advice from one of the RTR stylists, I had ordered a 10 and a 12 - I ended up wearing the 10. I felt it flattered my figure well. My only regret was not making sure I got better pictures of the dress!
