RTR Team Review
Love this feminine and absolutely gorgeous style by Catherine Deane! I can definitely see this dress working for a formal event or even as a wedding dress. The fit is true to size but fitted in the waist so I would recommend sizing up if you want a little more room in that area. I love the tea length since it makes the dress more romantic and I also love how it is loose in the hips. I would wear a NuBra or skip the bra all together due to the straps. Can't get enough of this style and can't wait to wear it again!

Perfect dress for a night at the ballet
Because I'm 5'1'' I had to pin up the shoulder straps a bit, but other than that it was great. The dress is beautifully made and I felt elegant. I received many compliments all night. I did not wear a bra, the bodice had enough padding and support.

Beautiful, high quality and whimsical
I loved this dress! I wore it to my company Christmas gala and got so many compliments. The flowy part of this dress wears beautifully and is very flattering. I would wear this again and recommend this dress to anyone. One note, you can not wear a bra with this dress as it is completely backless. There is little to no support in the bra area so if you need extra support you may want to have a back up.

This dress is a perfect fit. Slightly stretchy without any compromise on the material. I could never afford to buy this dress but to rent it was an absolute dream to make an unforgettable night!

Photographed BEAUTIFULLY
I wore this dress for my engagement photos and I am so happy with how they turned out. The one thing to be careful of is making sure you keep an eye on the front of the dress, if you're not standing up straight it can look saggy, but I'm sure double sided tape could help!

The most perfect wedding dress!
I changed into this dress for the reception at my wedding. My ceremony gown was fitted, long, and difficult to dance/move around in, so I wanted something light and flowy to change into. This dress was PERFECT! I actually think I liked it better than my actual wedding gown. I originally ordered this in a 4 and backup 2. When shipping day came, whoever had these sizes hadn't sent them back in time, so I was SOL. Luckily a size 6 was available at the last minute. It was definitely way too huge on me, but my fashion friend worked her magic with a few safety pins and it ended up being alright. It was still a bit too loose at times, but honestly it was wonderful. I got so many compliments! I wish I owned this dress!

The dress made me feel like a real princess!
The dress is gorgeous. It's low in the back, exposing a part of my body that I work out a lot but is rarely seen. It was a totally flattering cut. The shoulders were a little large, but maybe I'm short for the 2R? Loved this dress and will get it again!

Breathtaking!!!
My children gasped when they saw me in this dress and it's one of the times in my life where I have felt most beautiful. It was light and airy, but worked for two different events in the winter. It was long in the bodice so I needed to use quite a bit of sticky tape to get it to stay flat but it stayed it once I did that. I absolutely love this dress and will find it hard to beat with future rentals!

Amazing dress, I felt like a goddess!
Light and comfortable, wore it for rehearsal dinner and after party at my wedding and I felt like a goddess! It was about 6 inches short of the ground, which made it great for dancing with flats. The 0 was very tight and the 2 was just a bit loose and low in the front, definitely recommend wearing the sticky bra with no straps since the back is open too.

Stylist Review
This dress is so beautiful and elegant! It fit perfectly in my typical size 8 and hit just above my knee at 5'5". You wouldn't be able to wear a strapless bra with this, so you'd have to go braless or wear a NuBra.

The material is very flattering. The boob area was a little big so we had to kind of tape/tie the back straps to make it fit right. Over all such a pretty dress!

Got compliments all night!
This dress is absolutely gorgeous in person. The thin tulle of the skirt is very pretty (especially while moving) and the bodice has this wonderful applique lace that really makes it stand out. This dress is completely backless so you can't wear a bra. The 6R was the only one that fit me, however the bodice was pretty loose on me since I don't have the biggest chest. The hem came down to my ankles instead of mid-calf but it still looked cute.

The dress is beautiful, the only flaw is the top part. Because its an open back you must keep your chest pushed forward and your shoulders back. It fell a lot so i recomend a sticky chest bra, ones for an open back. It was fine to wear for two hours but wouldnt recommend for shorter torsos.

Really pretty, but doesn't fit right at all. Maybe it's just my height, but the top gapped very oddly and I couldn't figure out any way to get it to fit properly. Good thing this was just my try-on!

Not worth the money it cost to rent this dress
The dress looks beautiful on the picture but I felt extremely frumpy in it because it did not fit well around the bosom. I used safety pins on the sides to stop it from sticking out awkwardly. The bottom of the dress I loved and the top was just a total fail. I kept adjusting the top the whole evening. I would not rent this dress again

Stunner, Unique, and Gorgeous
This dress in gorgeous! The skirt is swirls and twirls beautifully and the bodice is detailed and unique. I love the gold. Felt like a Grecian goddess wearing it. My fiance' said it reminded him of Margery Tyrell. My only tip is that because there isn't a back to the dress, I would recommend getting a size where the bodice fits really well and isn't loose up top.

Beautiful dress. Compliments for days!
This fit was perfect for my body type - I'm tall with a long torso. The dress hit me mid calf (I was wearing kitten heels). I didn't wear a bra because there is support built in. The gold detail and back are absolutely stunning. I've never gotten so many positive comments on a dress - including my wedding dress. Would definitely rent again.

Angelically beautiful
This dress... I don't know where to begin! It's just so precious and delicate. The skirt is silky soft and the top is intricately simple. I put in runs small because I barely have room to breathe in this dress so it fits me perfectly, but other size 0s I've rented always has a little bit of room to inhale... But who needs to eat when you look that good! The dress hits me at the ankles, which is fine. LOVE LOVE LOVE this dress! Makes you feel like a princess and almost feels like something you a bride would wear.

The dress is absolutely lovely. The fabric is soft and beautiful.
But the top was sooooo big. I have pretty broad shoulders and an average bust and I could have had this dress taken in about 2 inches on each side. I might have gotten a better fit with one size down, but I doubt the top would have fit - the size was just too far off.

The proportions on this dress are a little off.
This is a beautiful dress. However, after considering other reviews, I tried on a size 12. I'm normally a size 14. Most of the dress fit perfectly...except for the top. It was entirely too big/loose and too long. I wear a 38C bra for comparison and I'm 5'8".

This dress is beautiful! I could have gotten married in it! I rented it for my rehearsal dinner and ended up not wearing it because the top was WAY too large for me. I would have had to do some serious taping and safety pinning and then worry about it staying in place all night.

HUGE in the chest, really odd shaped, but if you have a long torso it will probably work. I'm a 40D and there was too much extra fabric. I had to keep my posture wildly straight in order to not have bizarro pointy side boob appear. Otherwise though, this dress is truly gorgeous!

One of the best quality white dresses I've received from RTR!
The material on this dress is gorgeous and the shape is very flattering! The quality was great and this was definitely in the top two best quality white dresses I've received from RTR. Other white dresses I received tended to look worn but this looked brand new. I rented this as a backup for my rehearsal dinner dress so I wish I had another event to wear it to! The only con is that the delicate lace tends to slide around on the sleeves and back but this could potentially be solved with well hidden tape.

Way too big
I ordered this as my backup dress for my elopement in a size 6. I’d recently had a baby and my bust size was ever changing. Pre-baby, I was a size 4 or 6 so I thought ordering larger would be a good idea. Unfortunately, it was unwearably large... like my breast we’re visible from the sides. The gown itself is absolutely stunning though. I may find a reason to rent it in a size 2 with a backup size 4.

top too long
You need a long torso for this dress. This dress is insanely beautiful and soft and delicate. But the top is about two inches too long for me, making it impossible to wear since the straps would keep falling down. I have a pretty long torso already so I think it may fit this way for many ppl.

The lace is amazing! There are silicone ribbons to keep it in place. However the cut didn't work with my shape and the silicone lining was dangling when I stood straight. The zipper lining was also fully visible and very distracting in the rear view. The front view was lumpy with the seam at the waist of the underlining. This dress is amazing, just not for me who doesn't have a perfect body.
