This dress was absolutely perfect for prom!I had so many compliments on it!
Nothing bad about it, I'm not a very big sparkle person and the sparkles only on the back perfectly went with it!

Classy and trendy
Loved the fit of this dress with a Wow! back. The only slight issue I have is that the front doesn't photograph as well, but overall the dress was very comfortable. A bit of a watchout that the dress is so figure hugging in a fabric that will show everything so its definitely something to wear if you've worked out and are ready to show that level of detail. Also, the beading in the folded fabric is only noticeable if you look straight on at the back. Not a big deal for me, but was a bit different than what I expected.

My favorite compliment of the night was how they loved watching my husband watch me walk away.
The dress fit perfectly and it was extremely comfortable. I wore it to an awards gala at a winery and I received countless compliments.

Great dress. Forgot to take any pictures!! I'm 5'4 and the dress was too short with any heel higher than about an inch. I wish I would of got the long, but it still was great with a short heel.

I went for the 2L since I'm 5'5" and a half and wore stilettos. It was lovely! I normally wear a 4, so order in your size and one size smaller

I Amazing , with some flaws
I wore this dress to my junior prom which we had no theme and it was on a boat and I didn't want something with a dramatic bottom and having to squeeze through a boat in a big dress so I did research and found something in expensive and gorgeous . I got so many compliments from teachers and students , I felt amazing and comfortable all night , there were some spots on the dress that weren't exactly visible unless someone went searching for them . It was and okay length with heels but would recommend a heel under 4 inches if that . I'm not the slimmest girl in the abdomen area but it was revealing in the front which worried me during photos but I got over it and didn't worry . Overall its very easy to move around in and dance and the bra I had with it was even more comfortable .

The dress really was beautiful on and it was super comfortable making it easier to dance in and wear
I had ordered a size 8 knowing it would be loose fitting so I felt more comfortable and I also ordered a size 10. Last minute they couldn't ship me my size 8 so I had to wear the 10, it wasn't terrible it fit in certain weighs but it was big in my whole upper body. Anyways, it was a beautiful dress!

PHENOMENAL CUSTOMER SERVICE AND PROFESSIONALISM!!!!! xoxoxoxoxoxo
I rented this beautiful dress for prom. I am only a freshman but wanted less glam and more elegance. This was my first choice but I ended up choosing my backup dress. The color of my other dress was red which glowed against my skin color. I am a regular size 6/4 so the dress was not as fitted as I would have liked but very manageable. I loved the fit of this dress, and the fabric was beautiful; very expensive feeling and looking. I would definitely wear this gown to a future occasion. NOTE: I am 5'4 and I ordered the reg. 8, which I tried on with 5&1/2 in. heels and it was not floor length. Would suggest no more than 3 inch.

The easy delivery and return.
I live in NYC and this was the first time I used RTR. I was lucky enough to make a style appointment and try this dress in advance, and I'm glad I did! It was not something that initially caught my eye on the website, but after i tried it on in person, I knew it was elegant and something that could easily handle my boyfriend's wild dance moves! ;) Although it was somewhat true to size. (I normally wear a size 4) The side zipper did not lay as flush to my body as much as I wish it would have (zipper rippled a little) but overall it was a gorgeous dress. I received so many compliments and for my petite frame it really complemented my shape, while being the perfect balance of sexy and sophisticated. This is a great dress for a black tie event. I paired it with a plum nail and lipstick and silver clutch for an edgier touch.

Easy Rental, Gorgeous Gown.
This dress was my 'second style', i ordered 2 dresses for a formal event (Barrister's Ball for my boyfriend's law school). I was only able to order 1 size, because i ordered 2 sizes in my first choice dress. I was worried about what size to order because depending on the store, i can wear anything from a 2 petite (Ann Taylor) to a 6 regular. I have a chest (32 DDD/34DD), normal hips, a little bit of a booty and i'm 5 foot 4. I messaged the stylists' on this site, and after hearing my measurements she recommended a 6 regular.... it fit perfectly! The dress was a tad long, but with a 3-4 inch heel it would have been fine. The reason i chose to not go with this dress for the event was because the material was very unforgiving. You can see every detail of your body in it, and i have no idea how other girls wore underwear with it. I tried on a 'barely there thong' with it, and you could still see every detail.... no underwear is not my style so i was not going to wear it. I tried the dress on without anything on up top (no bra, cups, tape - nothing) and it looked fine. Because i have natural curves, i did not like the way the dress draped in the front. The material of the dress was soft and had a bit of weight to it, which made it feel elegant and formal... not cheap and tacky like some dresses at a department store. The jewels on the dip in the back were pretty. Overall -- i think this dress would be gorgeous on a girl with less curvature to her body so that it 'hangs' better on her body. It was pretty... but maybe i would have liked it better in a dark color to hide more line/wrinkle/detail underneath! I hope this review helps!

Ton of compliments!
The 10 was a little too snug for my liking so I wore the backup 12R instead. I am 5'1" and even with 3" heels the dress was a little long but I prefer it that way than to be too short. The hardest part was finding undergarments that didn't show because the back is so open and low. I ended up with brief-size SPANKS and a stick on backless bra which worked out just fine. The dress was simple, classic and elegant. The color is a shade darker than it appears in the picture which I was glad for because I didn't want to wear something too light at a wedding.

The dress was beautiful!
I am typically 0 or 2, the 0 was not available so I ended with the only option of a 2. It still fit great but I think the 0 would have been perfect! The dress was so glamorous, and I received a million compliments on it all night. It does show everything, but I did not wear spanks as other suggested. The length was good for me in heels but I am short (5'2") so it may be a little short on a taller person.

I wore this to a formal event and got sooooo many compliments-the back was a show stopper!
The fit was good- true to size Came with 2 sided tape to hold up the shoulder areas. Definitely need an undergarment but worth it. Arrived slightly wrinkled but I was able to steam it gently and it looked fabulous!!

Great dress; requires specific undergarments.
Dress fits true to size. You will want to wear spanx, but I couldn't find a pair that work with the dress (the back comes down too low). You will need seamless panties (or none at all) with a backless bra.

BUY SPANX! This gorgeous dress definitely needs spanx due to the jersey type material which makes it hug every curve of your body. The back of this dress is stunning. Also if you're short like me you will have to either tape the hem up or wear 5 inch heels. I wore 5 inch heels and the bottom grazed the floor like the picture with the model. I LOVED this dress, just HAVE TO wear spanx!!

Super super easy gown ! Easy to wear, easy to sit in, easy to dance in and very elegant.
Pros - so EASY to wear - doesn't pucker or bulge, bind or chaff! You will need a pair of spanx ( unless you 22!) and a backless bra (unless you have implants). Very graceful and elegant Cons - would really POP on ladies with darker skin. Wish I had a tan! It will show every curve (bulge, layer or fold) but is also very forgiving to wear!

Too short on me!
I really wanted to wear this dress but it was way too short (i'm 5'10 - 5'11") even in the long. Didn't think it was the most flattering either, was very clingy along the mid section. However it looked great on a shorter and flatter-stomached friend of mine.

A pretty dress, but I didn't love the fabric
I really liked the cut of this dress, and it's flattering if you are comfortable in a figured-hugging design. My only complaint was that the fabric is a bit cheap looking. If it were in black, that would probably be less obvious. This was my second choice, so I went with the first for that reason. In general, though, this is an understated look from the front, elegant and clean, then a nice little shop-stopper from the back.

Good service by RTR, just not the dress for me.
I was so so excited to get this dress, but it looked quite a bit different in the photo than in real life. I ordered a regular length going off of the measurements given, and it was way too short--it didn't even touch the floor. Overall it was a pretty dress, but just fell short of expectations and didn't work for me.

Very form fitting, and very short for a long gown (i am 5'3 and it went to my feet without heels). I am very glad I had a different dress with a different style because this dress was not me at all. I wasn't a huge fan.

Beyond too short!
The dress came above my ankles. I'm 5'9 and there is no way this would fit anyone above 5'5 with heels! I even got the long.
