We danced all night long!! We even made the local newspaper!

I ordered the dress in 2 and 6 I would have ordered a 2 and 4 but the 4 was not available. Usually I wear a 4 because of my dancers build but a two typically works. the 2 in this style was tight around my large ribcage but zipped up fine. The 6 was loose around the rib cage but wearable. The 4 would have fit perfectly. I wore the 6 and it was a blast to dance in! The full skirt of the dressed moved beautifully while dancing without showing all the goods. I received many compliments on the dress and my fiance offered to buy the dress for me. When i told him it was a $1,400 dress he expressed how smart it was of me to continue using RTR. I will be renting again!

So unique and beautiful- countless compliments all night long

The fit was true to size, the bust fit perfectly and the zipper was easy. The bottom of the dress was a tad difficult at first but if you cover it with a sheet and iron the folds they will lay nicely. I highly recommend this dress if you want to stand out or are looking for something classic and undoubtedly beautiful. The print is very unique and also the fabric is very comfortable.

All the "oh my goodness that's a beautiful dress!" It really made my night!

The fit was great! The only thing was it was kind of tight across the top. Other then that everything was great!

Absolutely stunning material. When this fabric was in the light it was so rich.

They only had size 2 left so I was praying I wouldn't need a 0 or 4. It couldn't have fit more perfect. It fit like a glove. I would say it runs a tad small as the other dress I rented I chose to wear the 0. You could tell this was an expensive designer dress. It made my event and it was a talking piece of the show!!!

Favorite RTR dress so far. The dress does all the work.

This was a replacement dress sent when my original dress had an issue. It fits very well - tighter in the top/ribs, and obviously lots of space below the waist. This is a really elegant dress, different from every other wedding guest's lace sheaths. It has darker colors, but feels very feminine at the same time. Loved it - favorite dress so far. A tip on wearing it: when it arrives, the bottom of the dress will be crinkled. The amazing wave at the bottom is possible because of a semi-rigid, semi-flexible material sewn into the hem. If you iron that band (from the back only, of course, on low to medium heat), so it is flat, but in its natural circular shape, it removes the kinks, and it sits as you see it in the model's photo (and hopefully mine). PS after about 4 hours, I did need a break from the structure of the top - but it wasn't uncomfortable until that point.

Loved it!!! Stood out from other girls/women at the event :)

I loved the dress. I wore it at a wedding this past weekend. It was unique, beautiful, and I received a lot of compliments from men and women. I usually wear a size 0/2 depending on the fit, for this dress I got the size 2 because they didn't have the 0 and it fit perfectly. It's so pretty when you dance :)

The worst thing about this dress was having to return it!

I was so nervous to rent a dress for a wedding and only try it on the day before. Luckily, the reviews were 100% accurate and the dress was true to size. I fell in love with it instantly! I got countless compliments on my dress and everyone asked where I got it. I felt like a million bucks. Returning it was the hardest part! You won't be disappointed with this choice!

Great dress for an evening wedding!

I LOVE this dress. I wore it for an evening wedding reception at a yacht club and it was perfect (I wore the back up dress I rented for the ceremony!). I was a little nervous about the sizing since I usually wear an 8 and it was not available. I read the reviews and saw that it runs a bit small so I felt better about the decision of getting the 10. It fit great! It was a little loose in the back, but it wasn't noticeable, it was actually a bit more comfortable being loose, and it allowed me to wear any type of bra. I also rented the Square Dance necklace and it worked really well! The material is very substantial but not hot or uncomfortable at all.

Such a classic look!

I felt like Grace Kelly in this dress--it fit like a glove, and the silhouette of it is just so flattering for highlighting your waist. My favorite part is the full skirt; like a few other reviewers said, it has a layer of haro in the hem, which gives it a bit of flounce (perfect for dancing!). The material is high-quality, woven with a slight sheen, so I would recommend this dress only for evening events. Be aware that this fabric has no stretch. I wore my normal size 6, which was perfect, but I did notice that there wasn't much breathing room in the chest area--FYI I'm a 34A bust. If you're larger-chested, I'd recommend going a size up for your back-up size. My photo doesn't show full body, but the dress hit right at my knees (I'm 5'7). Very classy length. I wore it with nude Jessica Simpson heels and my own gold snake-chain necklace from Express.

This made me feel like I fit in at a fancy New York Gala event!

My measurements are about 37-28-40. I would have gotten a size 8 but it didn't exist. The 6 fit my waist perfectly, slightly scrunched in the bust but not terrible, and the hips don't much matter since it flares out so much. You can wear a normal bra, just making sure the straps are far enough apart in the back to not peak out. The bottom of the skirt is absolutely adorble, and has extra fabric to make it flip out a small amount. The fabric is rich and heavy and made me feel elegant. Loved it!

such a pretty structured dress! The fabric is so ornate and baroque! i feel like I could go to a dinner party in Rome in this dress. I did not wear a bra and it was very comfortable. I am in between a 4 and a 6 and the 4 was perfect on me.

Favorite dress I've ever worn- fun, flirty and so classy. Prepare for loads of compliments!

The 0 fit, but I was too chesty for it, so opted for the 2, which was beneficial so I was more comfortable all night.

Love Project Runway and Christian was one of my favorites. To wear one of his designs, AMAZING!

It was a little big. I originally ordered an 8, and a 10 as a backup in case the 8 was too small based on some of the other reviews I read. At the last minute I was e-mailed that the 8 could not be sent. I was truly disappointed and feared it wouldn't work out. Luckily, though a little large, the dress fit well enough that I felt comfortable wearing it.

Perfect dress for a formal holiday party. The flair of the skirt takes this dress up a notch!

I loved this dress! The fit and fabric are luxurious and the flair of the skirt made it so fun to dance in. The only downside is that I'm a DD so it was a bit snug around the chest.

Stylist Review

I loved the print on this dress! The cut makes it very girly and fun. I would suggest going up one size for back up. This style works best for A to C cup sizes and is very fitted in the natural waist.

A definite standout for a formal affair.

I normally wear a size 4, but the dress runs small in the chest and waist. Definitely recommend going a size up. The size 6 was only slightly roomy. The flowy fabric made dancing all the more fun, and I received a good deal of compliments. My first RTR experience and definitely not my last.

Loved the dress itself, it is beautifully made and the skirt of it is to die for...

The dress is stunning, however it is not for ladies with a larger chest. There is not much room for stretch, and let's just say the "girls" were flattened quite a bit. Very fun dress otherwise, especially for any type of dancing.

Beautiful Dress

I wore the dress to a murder mystery masquerade event and it was a blast! The dress is definitely tight in the chest and fitted in the natural waist. Also, the fabric has a texture to it which I didn't realize when I ordered it (if you use the zoom feature over the fabric you should be able to see it in the picture). Overall, I enjoyed wearing it.

Great dancing dress!

This dress is so elegant and even prettier in person. It was a bit longer on me than on the model since I am 5'2'' it hit me right at the knees instead of just above. It also is better suited for those with a smaller bust (A-C), as a 34D it was very tight and squeezed me on top, almost too tight to wear a bra. But this dress is so fun to dance in! The extra fabric in the skirt makes it perfect for twisting and twirling around. I would definitely rent it again. It was the perfect mix of femininity and flare for a Fall wedding. I felt so Marilyn Monroe with the V neck and big flirty skirt. The fabric is luxurious and has a nice sheen that looks pretty in pictures and in the light. It is also lined with a silky fabric. A wonderful rental.

This dress was beautiful! I felt amazing in it and it was very classy and fun to dance in.

The fit was about one size small, as others have said. I normally wear a 0 but the 2 fit perfectly, maybe even a bit snug. I would buy it if it wasn't so expensive, but will definitely rent again! I got a ton of compliments!

Such a fun dress ; beautiful print

The dress runs tight thru the bodice. The 4 was unavailable so I was sent a 2 and 6. The 6 left gaps around my ribs and waist while the 2 was tight for my chest size. The fit was too unflattering in the 6 so I opted for looks over comfort! It was worth going braless because it fit perfectly snug in other areas and looked great all night

Lovely short dress for a Black Tie

I am a very pale person and this actually made me look a little tan, which I loved. I had a tricky time pairing shoes with the dress, so I ultimately went with black. The fit was just right and I was happy with my selection.

Gorgeous dress but completely unwearable due to a contorted hemline! Disappointing!

This dress is absolutely beautiful. I was so upset that I couldn't wear it. I received a size 2 and 6. The 2 was too small in the bust and the 6 was a little loose, but would work. The 4 would have most likely fit perfectly. The problem with it was the bottom of the dress. The size 2 and 6 had different hems. The hem on the 6 was a disaster. No matter what I did, the bottom would not unfold from the way it was packaged. I tried to iron it like some of the other review suggested, but it wouldn't work. You can see in the pictures that on the left side, the bottom is not flowing like the other side. I was very disappointed this being my first RTR experience. The dress is very well made and beautiful, but unfortunately whatever was going on with the bottom made it unwearable for the wedding. I am not sure that I want to try it out again!

Runs small in the chest - beautiful dress

Wish I could have worn it!!! The dress was even more beautiful then the pictures and the material felt amazing. The material is thicker and doesn't have a lot of give hence why my chest didn't fit. The rest of the dress fit beautifully.. Just could zip the last 1/4 of the dress. Will rent again in a bigger size.

Very nice. Got tons of compliments.

The size 0 was no longer available so I got the 2 and it was a little loose in the waistline but no one noticed. Also I am 5'2" and the hem was to my knee. The bottom flares out a bit so it looked good but I would have preferred it a little shorter. It is a beautiful dress and fun to wear.

This dress is absolutely perfect. It's super flattering and fit well. I have narrow shoulders so the shoulders were a little big, but once I tried a different bra with the dress, it worked so well.

Outstanding quality and detail. Very busy design but I LOVED it!

The hemming under the dress is so well tailored that the dress looks good from the inside out. The textile was very Roman-inspired with a Versace finish. This dress is definitely tight, you can wear any bra. However, I would not suggest wearing one. The dress is so tight that you will not have anything to worry about regarding support. I ordered the 0 and 2. I tried to wear the 2 so that I could wear a bra, and it was too big. The flow of the fabric is also beautiful. This is definitely a winter/cold spring dress. The material is too heavy for any other season. You will NOT be disappointed.

Wallpaper?

I liked the fit of this dress, it suited my body type well. It was long enough that I didn't feel exposed. I wish that I had a petticoat though, because it would have been nice to support all that skirt. It is a very full skirt with a heavy bottom hem. My dad didn't like the pattern, he likened it to wallpaper, but I thought it was different. The pattern was, I felt, more subtle than the pictures, and almost printed on. I wore it to the ceremony, but a different dress to the reception.

Fun and Luxurious Dress

It is a fun dress with a great flowy design; a lot different from dresses you'd typically see at a wedding! I would have worn the dress however, the one I received was pretty damaged so I ended up not wearing this one, so make sure you check the dress for any frays or rips since the waist/ribcage is somewhat tight. I have a pretty large ribcage, and the 4 felt like a snug fit. The waist hit me right at the start of my hips and I'm 5'2, so it flared out nicely. Very rich and luxurious fabric and the texture of the dress is pretty unique.

I wore the dress for a Gatsby event and absolutely loved it!

The fit is definitely true to size or slightly snug. If you are in between sizes, go up a size. The fabric is different than what I thought it would be. Its much softer than the pictures look, but durable. The dress was gorgeous, unique and I received many compliments. I highly recommend it.
