Great color!

I wore this for an October wedding in Cabo San Lucas. Like all E&J dresses, it ran small. I'm a 2 in most designers, but a 4 in E&J. They didn't have a 4 available so I squeezed into a 2, but would've been more comfortable in the 4. Overall, a great color and great style.

Lovely color on olive skin!

This dress runs small, thankful I read reviews! I usually wear a 4/6 and wore the 8. It's very showing so make sure you have a good strapless or nubra and some good no show undies. Got tons of compliments at the day wedding I wore it too. And loved the Kendra Scott Rose Gold earrings with it. Can't go wrong with KS or this dress!

PERFECT!

This dress definitely runs small, but once you find your true fit it fits like a glove hugging in at all the right places. I received a lot of compliments on this dress.The color is very sublet and understated in a good way. You can't wear a bra with this dress as the neckline is very narrow but I wore stickies and was fine. It was also very comfortable to dance in! I highly recommend this dress.

Really great dress! Received so many compliments.

Pros: fit like a glove, wasn’t too short, covered all the appropriate areas but still felt sexy, flattering color. Cons: none. Literally. This dress was 🔥

I wore this to an engagement party and got compliments all night!

I’m usually a size 2, and the size 2 fit but a 4 may have been more comfortable

Super flattering for itty bitty titty committee

I loved this dress! I wore it for a rehearsal dinner as a bridesmaid. The material is thick enough I didn't need a bra and it doesn't wrinkle or show unforgiveness around the midsection. It has an hourglass shape to it already so it hugged the booty right but also made it look like I've got more natural curves going on than I really do haha. So 10/10 if you have an athletic shaped body!

The fit!

I felt extremely confident in this dress. I would order it again! It was NOT breathable material, and hot to wear to an outside wedding in July. I did have to order a size up because the dress material was not "stretchy" but so glad I did.

Comfortable and allowed me to dance all night without feeling constricted.

The color is gorgeous and would pair well with all skin tones. The material is thick so it smooths those trouble areas and it's got some stretch for comfort.

Fantastic dress

This is without a doubt a slim fitting dress - I think that's not arguable. However, you could still love and breathe despite the fit. The length was also really nice and flattering. I probably should have gone up one more size however I was comfortable enough with my body that it didn't really bother me. This will show sweat just due to the fact of how tight it is. Overall my experience with RTR was amazing and this dress worked out great. I'd recommend

Simple but bold

I normally wear 0 but wore this in size 2 and it was very form fitting. Kind of shows my belly but no fault to the dress, it's a thick enough material to hide panty lines. My only complaint is that the shoulder lines cut inwards more than I wanted, so I had to wear a strapless sticky bra instead of a bra with normal straps.

Classy for the event on the yacht, but comfortable enough to kick off shoes and dance!

This was form fitting and tight, but felt amazing! I loved this dress. I went with the larger size so I could breathe and dance at the wedding, but it still felt great on. I am a narrow body, but this was snug in all the right places. I got many compliments!

Beautiful color and perfect fit!

I absolutely loved this dress for a summer wedding, especially the color. The 4 fit perfectly, I am usually a 0-2 so definitely size up. The fabric is pretty thick, which was nice because I didn’t have to wear a bra, however you can still sweat through it, so be careful if it’s a hot outdoor wedding. The only complaint I have is that it bunches up when wearing, so I was constantly pulling it down so it looked smooth. Would definitely rent again!

Perfect and fit like a glove!

Wish I could keep this dress- the color is perfect. I wore to an outdoor wedding in April but you could probably get away with in summer/early fall also. The dress is definitely form fitting but I was still able to dance and move. I took a chance ordering my "normal" dress size because the size up wasn't available and I thought it was perfect. Would recommend ordering one in your standard size and one size up.

Love, love, love this dress!!' It was Perfect!

I rented this dress for our daughters college graduation. It was perfect! The color and quality of the dress gave an air of subtle sophistication and class. Size up!!!! This dress runs small, I usually wear a size 2 but the 4 was a better fit!

Unique & Flattering

Great dress, tight and flattering, the material is thick so it holds everything in, in all the right places. The cut and color are really unique, and extremely flattering on my wide shoulders. It was definitely pretty tight though, I normally wear a 2 or 4 and the 6 would have been a better choice for me. I loved this dress, I would probably rent this same one again!

Pros- VERY comfortable; classy and sexy. Cons-I got lucky with accessories I chose complimenting it well. I can see how different tones of shoes/jewelry might not showcase the dress as well.

Fits like a glove!

I usually wear a 0 and think that would have worked too, the fabric is stretchy so you should be able to size up or down and still get away with it. The 2 has a tiny bit more room in the shoulders / chest then I typically prefer since I'm an A cup. But with a padded bra, amazing fit. Nice blush color that looks elegant with nude accessories. Very comfortable and felt confident all night long!

Womanly. Sexy, but classy. Well-built. Lovely, warm color.

Loved. The dress felt strong, and very well made. It rode up a little, but tbh, I’m a hard one to keep up with on a wedding dance floor. And these hips don’t lie. I have very muscular legs and wider hips, and this dress made me feel womanly and elegant. Classy. This was actually my back-up dress, but the color was too perfect for fall, so I wore. Glad I sized up.

Worn for semi-formal New Orleans wedding in October.

Runs a tad small. I’m usually a 4 but wore the back up size 6 and it fit perfectly. Beautiful color too. I have a muscular build but it still fit nicely on my back and legs. Classy and just enough sex appeal. This is my third time renting from RTR and I’ll definitely be doing it again!

Perfect wedding guest dress.

Really enjoyed this dress. It does run small, so I'm glad I went up a size from reading the other comments. Flattering fit and a really nice color. Form fitting, but not uncomfortable. Simple, but enough detail to stand out. Highly recommend.

Sexy but classy dress!

This dress definitely runs small. I'm usually a 2-4 and at the time I rented it, there was only a 4 available. It was so tight but I figured I'd just make do with what was available. The day before my event, I looked on RTR again to see if maybe a 6 became available and lo and behold, there was a 6 available the day of my event. RTR overnighted me the size 6 and I received my dress at 11am! Great dress and even better customer service!

Sharp dress

Beautiful dress! Definitely runs small. I'm typically a 2/4 or small. (130lbs, 5'8") The 4 was a tad tight in the hips, but the 6 was WAY too big in the chest and waist. So I ended up in the 4. The neck was a little constricting as the night went on. It was definitely not a dress for a large chested woman. I would rent again though!
