I rented this dress for birthday and loved it! It was incredibly flattering, and I received endless compliments throughout the night. It did run a little big. I am usually a size 6, but wore a 2.

I love this dress! Be prepared for complements!
The only note I would give is that if you have slim shoulders be prepared to continuously adjust your straps. The straps are not adjustable giving the dress a more elegant look. It wasn't a complete buzzkill, but they slid around a bit.

Lovely unique dress
I wore this to an event with many other girls wearing formal attire, and I definitely stood out quite a bit. Since I wear a C-cup, I had to wear a 2 instead of the 0 because the 0 was too tight in the chest. The tulle material was nice, although I wish it had a bit more fluff, so maybe wear a tutu underneath to puff it up a bit. The top could be itchy if it was quite tight, but I found it fine. Since I had to go up to a 2, the sides of the top kind of poked out towards my armpits, but it wasn't noticeable. Overall I really enjoyed the dress.

It is the perfect little black dress!!!!
I have a smaller chest, so the low cut looked so classic..... that side boob area was way too large, which is a first. The back is so classic!!! Everyone loved the layers of toile!!!! It's an awesome dress! And the sequence somehow doesn't rip your skin apart!!! I'm so glad I bought this dress final sale!!! It's perfect!!!!

Might need to tape the top in places if you don't fill it out (I'm 34A) so it gapped.. but totally wasn't a problem! Compliments on my tutu all night!

This was the best dress ever!
I absolutely loved this dress! It is tight around the waist, but not terribly so - it actually made it feel secure. Definitely a cleavage dress (which is what I was going for!), so you must be comfortable with that. The skirt and the sparkle were just so great. I would definitely recommend this!

I used this dress for one of my portrait sessions. Urban Ballerina. I thought the dress worked!
Pros: Loved the top detail. Cons: We had to tape the top portion of the dress. Thin top.

Fit for a Homecoming Princess!
My daughter is very tall and slim, athletic build. The only con which I will attribute to her build and not the dress was the bust area didn't fit very snug even after adjusting the straps. She wore a silicon bra (chicken cutlets) and plenty of double sided fashion tape. It was a hit! She said she received so many compliments.

Such a fun dress!
I received many compliments on this flirty fun dress. No need for a bra if you tighten the straps (I'm a C/D cup after 3 kids, so this is a rarity for me). The bodice was a bit snug, so I would size up if needed (but you'd probably need a bra if you did). I wore this to a party, not sure I'd wear it to a wedding with the plunging neckline.

Wore for prom & I felt like the belle of the ball
Nice fit I wish I could've made the straps a bit tighter. The bottom part of the dress was my favorite. The shape is flattering and it was very unique as a prom dress. I would definitely recommended! I got a 0 and a 2 I tried the 0 on first & it was a good fit so I didn't bother to try on the 2.

Fit like a glove and SO fun!
I rented this dress to wear to the GRAMMYs (I was attending for work) and it was the perfect dress for the occasion. It fit like a glove and was super comfortable. It rubbed a little bit under my arms, but I honestly didn't even realize it until the next morning and it was quite minor. I did use a little fashion tape to make sure that everything stayed where it should, and I wish there was a hook and eye at the top of the zipper because I was a little nervous the zipper was going to come down during the night (it did not). I received compliments all night long and would rent it again in a heartbeat!

Amazing dress. The bra strap back really is perfect for someone with a flat chest who doesn't want gaping. I wore it once to a wedding with plain black pumps and to an art school fundraiser with silver mesh ankle booties to make it more funky. Got complements both times and the fluffy tulle skirt is really fun

Christmas party sequins!
I wore this to my office Christmas party and received compliment after compliment! I am small chested and there was a lot of room up top in the size 6, like more than usual, but I wore a chicken cutlet bra to help. I wanted to get the size 4, but it was already booked. It is very low cut. The sequins and tulle skirt make it so fun for a party or wedding. It is a great dancing dress and I was heartbroken when I had to send it back. I found the designer online and considered buying it, that's how much I loved this dress. You don't need much jewelry because the dress steals the show. Of all the dresses I have rented from RTR, this one is my favorite.

Fit wonderfully and was very flattering. I did pull the straps up in the back as high as they could go to get a snug fit. The straps did slip down intermittently while dancing.

This dress runs VERY large! I normally wear a size 8, but after reading the reviews I decided to get my back up a size smaller. Glad I did because the 8 was HUGE! The 6 fit like a glove. I am a very typical pear shape and this dress hugged me in all the right spots! Definitely recommend it.

Great dress, lots of compliments, love the full skirt!
The fit is good, somewhat high-waisted which is flattering. The full skirt is very fun. The V-neck is slightly low but not too revealing for a corporate holiday party. The sequin material on the bodice may slightly irritate the skin under your arms. Overall, gorgeous dress!

I had so much fun dancing in this dress on NYE!
This dress fit nearly perfectly on me. I had to use some fashion tape for the fabric under both arms because that did stick out a little bit, but with the tape, it fit great! The front and back are both cut too low for a regular strapless bra, but you could do a NuBra, sticky bra or no bra and be fine. The sequins on the top are beautiful and the skirt had me twirling all night; this dress was so much fun to wear and without question I would rent it again.

Amazing dress!
I wore this for my company's holiday party, and I literally have never gotten so much positive feedback on my appearance, by an order of magnitude. I rented the 6 and 8 because some said the dress runs a little small in the rib cage, and I have a wide rib cage for my size. The 6 was a tiny bit tight, but the 8 was hanging off me. The adjustable straps were great to get it just right, though when I started dancing, they loosened all the way (my only complaint). This dress is just so CUTE! The skirt is flouncy and flirty, and the top is sexy thanks to the deep V (but I never felt like I was showing too much). I had fun wearing it, and all night, people were coming up to me and telling me what a great dress it is.

I ABSOLUTELY loved this dress!! I wore it to my Sorority Semi Formal dance and it was just perfect. I had gotten so many compliments on the dress all night it made me feel so pretty! I should have gotten a 2 as my back up size versus the 6, the 4 still fit fine, just a little loose on top! Other reviews said it ran small but I thought it was more true to size! I loved how the straps could be adjusted, it really help the dress fit better! I Would recommend this dress to everyone!

I felt like a princess in this dress!
When I first got this dress, it was too low cut to wear to a work function. I was able to figure something out to cover my cleavage and I made it work. I emailed their customer service who offered me either an exchange overnight or a credit. I was determined to make it work, so I did. This dress is so beautiful. The straps are adjustable in the back which was helpful. The tulle was a bit wrinkled but easily fluffable. I got many compliments all night on this dress! I truly felt like a princess.

Fun, flirty dress that was perfect for dancing all night long!
The dress fit true to size. Since I am pear shape, it was a great option for my smaller bust area and larger hip areas. I rented the dress based on what my bust size is (I usually wear small tops or size 2 dresses that are forgiving from the waist down). I really liked that the dress had adjustable straps which made it very comfortable to wear all night! The dress was absolutely stunning... Photos do not give it as much justice. My only feedback (and it is so small) is that the sequin top did rub/ irritate my arms a little while I was dancing, BUT I was really breaking it down in the dance floor, so if you aren't planning on that, then it isn't really a concern.

Stylist Review
This dress is feminine and adorable! I love fuller skirts, but I usually don't wear them because they typically look too young on me. However, the silhouette and black detailing on this Allison Parris makes it more edgy and mature. This dress runs slightly small, I recommend sizing up. The deep-v neckline and open back is sexy, but definitely plan to go braless or wear a nubra. There is no stretch to the fabric, but you can adjust the straps to make it work with your bust size. Pair with silver jewelry and strappy heels.

Perfect NYE Party dress
I loved this dress. My one regret: not ordering a size down. I am a 36B in the bust and the top was too large. I am typically a size 8-10 but a 6 would have been perfect in this dress. I would say sizing strictly depends on bust size. For a small C or less my advise would be to size down. It is the perfect fun and festive dress!

Great first rental :)
The 8 fit great, almost perfect except for the sides they bubbled out a bit. I used a strapless push up and it helped to fill it in a little better. I was going to pin it but decided not to bother after seeing an improvement with the bra. I'm only 5'0 so I'm always having issues with length but this one worked out, and it didn't feel awkward or too long. I received so many compliments throughout the evening. I'm not one for getting dolled up or wearing dresses and when I do it's normally very plain and simple so this was different for me and it was so much fun.

Great Special Occasion Dress!!!!
I rented this for my 30th Birthday bash and it did not disappoint! I received so many compliments all night long from everyone. even the bartenders at the restaurant we were celebrating at stopped to tell me they all thought it was stunning. Like many other reviews state, The top runs very big, but a great low plunge- sideless bra saved the day (and I am very petite up top) Rent this! You'll feel like a million bucks for a fraction of what it would cost to buy.

The dress fit very well except for the bust was very big, I had to pin both sides. I'm a D and there was a lot of extra room. I loved how it made me feel. It was fun, flirty and cute. Another con is the sequin scratches under your arms.

Fun and comfortable!
It def. runs a little big in the bust. I have no chest so I had to wear the 2 because the 4 was way too big on top. I have a very long torso and the waist of this dress was pretty high, but because of the "tutu" skirt no one could tell but me. It would be better worn on a woman with curves, but I really thought it was beautiful, playful and comfortable. I got a ton of compliments.
