The dress fit well and I heard, "You look amazing" over and over again!
This dress was awesome! It does run a bit large though, so I wore the medium (when I thought I was going to wear the large). There is plenty of room for a big chest. The waist fits an hourglass figure. It doesn't stretch right there, but it was fine for me. The hem is a little bit short, but as long as you pay attention, it works.

I felt beautiful in this dress and had multiple people tell me so!
I wore this to a November morning wedding and it fit pretty well. I got lots of compliments and didn't worry about having to constantly fix my dress. I used a different belt than the one provided to match my color scheme of silver and black. The only con was that on the side under the armpits, the hole for the arms is too big, so your bra strap will show unless you use tape or don't wear a bra. Overall, I felt like I looked great and had a great first experience with RTR!

Just being comfortable, appropriate, and not worrying about how I looked :-)
The dress was comfortable and flattering for a full, hourglass figure. The skirt hugs a little tighter then I thought, and the fabric was a little staticy, but was fine with a slip. I got a Large, and a Medium as a back up, but I didn't notice any difference between the two sizes. I replaced the skinny belt it comes with with a large one, b/c with a hourglass figure and a full bust, the tiny belt gets lost. The draping is very well done, one of the only times I wore a great v-neck with out worrying about cleavage all night.

Here I am (4th from L) at a party wearing the Catherine Malandrino dress I rented.
Really loved this dress - it was very sexy, sophisticated & flattering. The belt didn't work for me so I just substituted w/ a wider black belt of mine. You *definitely* need fashion tape to avoid flashing the world!

It fit a little big but that just made it really comfortable. Great dress!

Great for the right body type!
This is a wonderful dress IF you have the right body type for it. I think if you have an hourglass figure or curvy body type, then this dress would look great on you. The draping on the top - helped with fashion tape provided by RTR - really helped the overall effect of the dress. The draping in general looked fantastic and complimented my curves. I will say I wasn't too crazy about the belt. The belt was the same color as the dress so I switched it out for a skinny black belt and added some black patent pumps to complete my look. Would love to rent it again!!

I am petite but curvy, for me I had to go 2 sizes smaller for a proper fit up top. That meant the "P" size worked best for me. I also felt it looked better without the belt.

I loved this dress! After reading the reviews I was a little concerned about sizing, but my best advice is to order smaller than you would usually wear. I typically wear a 4 or a 6. I ordered the S and the P and the P fit much better. Getting the draping right on top was a little tricky, but some double sided tape kept everything in place. Overall, great dress!

Wore this to a the church ceremony of a wedding and it worked out wonderfully. Wore it with a short tuxedo jacket which was cute but didnt show off the dress as much. I run large at the bust so it a bit tight at top. Otherwise, this is a great safe pick for any event.

Perfect bachelorette dress!
I ended up sizing down- I'm 5'9" and pretty lean, and have no chest so even the small was too drapey on my frame. Fixed it right up with a safety pin & had no issues- perfect dress for a night in D.C. I preferred to pair it with a wider black belt instead of the one that's included.

I wore this to an outdoor wedding in November. Sorry, no picture. It fit beautifully. I received many compliments from everyone, especially my husband. It was comfortable too. The only downside was the belt. You will need fashion tape to keep the belt down. It was a bit large and the excess would not stay down. I used double sided tape and that seemed to work fine.

Sexy and classy dress. I got so many compliments on it. I had given birth, not too long ago; the ruching, along with spanx, camouflaged my poochie belly. The top is a little roomy, so I wore a black cami underneath. The only problem I had was that it had a lot of static, so the bottom kept climbing up my legs. Luckily my sister had a small can of "Static Guard" in her purse!

Runs a bit large but at the same time it still fits (weird). I rented a size 2-4. The 2 looked like a 4 and the four fit like a sack. Although the two seemed large it fit nicely. Material is very smooth and the dress did not look worn out. Would recommend.

Interesting...
This dress was interesting. On the right person, it would be great. It's tummy friendly. The bottom half was a little tight, but the top was very loose. It was also a little hot and made of a heavy material. The design was visually appealing and could hide flaws well.

I would recommend going a size down for this dress. I usually wear a medium, but the shoulders seemed too big and fell down quite a bit. Otherwise, great fabric that was wrinkle resistant and comfortable.

fits large on top
This dress looks beautiful in the picture, but fits extremelyy large in the top area. The bottom is true to size, but I felt like I was drwning in the top. I have a size 32DD chest so I feel that it might fit a larger girl (broader) really well. I am between a size 4 and 6.

Pretty and demure dress!
This dress is beautiful and the fabric is really nice and slinky, it's flattering on a larger chest however, if you're petite and shorter i would recommend a different dress. I am 5'2" and it was pretty long on me, I also have smaller shoulders and I felt like i was swimming in the fabric, it may have been better if I ordered the Small, but it wasn't available for my rental date. I wore this on my 10 year anniversary with my boyfriend and he did like it, but i think it would be better for a work event rather than a date night.

Loved this dress, but the sizing was weird. The bottom fit very well, however, the top was VERY loose, does not fit like the model in the pic at all. I thought I would be able to cinch it with the belt, but that didn't help at all. The front bodice sash does not fit tight like in the picture

I liked this dress, but thought that it was pretty big on the top -- and I'm not small chested. I think the sizing on RTR might be a bit misleading, I got the S, but should have ordered the P -- even though I'm not petite. Otherwise the color is gorgeous and it's great for day to night style.

I usually wear a 4 or 6 so I got a S and M it the S was big and didn't look at all like it did on the picture. The draping on the chest was very big and didn't really fit. I ended up taping it to make sure the front wouldn't open but I still didn't feel comfortable wearing it. If you have a size B cup I would suggest ordering a size down.

I did not end up wearing this dress. The color is very nice and the fabric has a good weight to it, but the top was simply too large. I tried a Small, and the top basically fell off my chest...not the look I wanted! In addition, the skirt was pretty short - I'm petite, and the skirt hit me at mid-thigh. This dress would be great for a woman with broad shoulders & good legs.

Don't get me wrong. . .the dress is ADORABLE online and the color is very pretty; unfortunatley it didn't lay as well on myself compared to the picture. I have a very small waist, average hips, and a D bust. The small was too small in the rear but fit in the front and the medium was the opposite. I wore the small anyway to a very small wedding and got tons of compliments. I wouldn't rent again and overall disappointed. I'll still rent from here, just not this dress. Thanks anyways RTR!

This dress was an epic disappointment. I thoroughly read the reviews before ordering, so I was ready for the dress to be drapey and require pinning -- that was not an issue. The material was the issue. The dress material was so cheap looking that I would never have ordered it if I had seen the fabric beforehand. Didn't wear it; wouldn't recommend it.
