So Shiny!

Loved this dress! So comfortable! The material is heavy so it was great for the winter wedding. I wore leggings, boots, and a light sweater over it. I apologize I didn't stop for a full length picture of myself. I had room to breathe in the dress all night so no need for spanx or shapewear. It had great shape and the sequins had a nice glitter feel. There was minor wear on the stitching but only someone looking for flaws would notice. Overall easy to wear.

Beautifully made, comfortable but HEAVY!

This dress was sent as a backup style and although the dress fit very well, I just didn't like how short it made me feel. I am very self conscious about my height (only being 5'1") and considering I was going to an event where I would be surrounded by tall people I didn't wind up wearing it. It was very long for my short torso so the bottom fell just below my knee. The dress was also very heavy/thick material and I felt like It would deter me from dancing the night away. Beautiful dress, just not for me.

Very pretty, size down.

I loved this dress. Heavy but very comfortable. Cute, sequins are in but it's not one of the many full sequin dresses there will be at your event, it's a bit more unique. A 14 definitely would have fit better but the 16 still worked with a belt to give it a bit more shape. If the 14 had been available I probably would have bought this! A note if you're outfit planning, if the dress has been out a while the sequins aren't gold gold anymore. (5'2'' 195lbs)

Feels like this was made for me!

This eloquii dress is so well constructed. It was thick, but not heavy. The fit and length was perfect for me. The only reason I didn't wear was because a gold themed event was virtual & the gold on this dress is only at the bottom. I will definitely rent again!

LBD with bling

I went with the bigger size to have a bit of room around the middle. This made the shoulders a bit loose but I wore a regular bra with no issues. Really fun with the Jane Jetson style flare at the bottom. Comfortable to wear all night for a wedding.

I wore this to a formal dinner/open bar party

I'm glad I listened to the reviews and got a smaller back up size! I usually wear size 18-20 in dresses, but because of the reviews I sized down as my back up size. I ended up wearing the 16W and it fit perfectly. I highly recommend this dress, it was comfortable and stylish. It was also a perfect length for me-- I'm 5'1 so it's usually difficult to find the perfect length. I want to rent again!

Wore this dress for a scholarship gala for the university I attended. The dress was the right amount of perfect. Fancy enough for a gala but not overdone.

Great comfortable dress for a night of dancing

I loved this dress! It was heavy but I wore it on a cold night so the weight didn't both me. Very comfortable material, not clingy but still accented my curves nicely. I typically wear a 14 and I wore the 14W. I probably could have wore one size smaller but it still looked great.

Received many compliments. Had just enough sparkle without being too much.

Fit was true to size. Fabric was soft and comfortable. I wore a gold belt to accentuate my waist more. It was perfect for my husband's company holiday party.

Perfection in a dress!

This dress fit like a dream!! True to size and flattering cut. It's a bit heavy but the weight meant not having to constantly fidget and tug. Super sophisticated for a work holiday party and some fun and flirt with the asymmetry and gold sparkle. My husband was upset that we had to send it back.

I wore this for our family's Mexican/Indian Fusion Wedding!!

This dress worked perfectly for the occasion. It does run a little big and is a substantial weight, which is perfect for fall. I was comfortable and got compliments on it all night!

Great dress

Rented this dress for a wedding and I loved it. I'm usually a size 16 but the 14w fit perfectly. The length was great, it was past my knees which I prefer because I like longer dresses. I will definitely be renting this dress again. If you like to be noticed, this is a great choice. Also my 2 year old took this photo for me. Not too bad.

I could have danced all night!

I got SO many compliments on this dress! Men and women stopped me to tell me how much they loved it! & the bride loved it too! I ended up going with the smaller size because it was a little bit shorter and look better with my flat shoes. It was a great dress! I got to wear a regular bra! & I wish it lived in my closet!!!

comfortable and classy with just the right amount of sparkle.

Dress is heavy, I'd only wear it in fall/winter or early spring. The back zipper is exposed.

Loved this dress, but ended up wearing my backup for my event.

I loved how comfortable and easy this was to wear. It really is noticeably heavy fabric though! Length was great for a tall woman- I'm 6'2"! Great coverage. Would definitely rent again for a different event.

Love this dress!

I got a 22w and a 18w. I was surprised to find the 22w big and the 18w perfect. The material of the dress was a little thick and perfect for a spring event.

The stress was so comfortable! It fit in all the right places and was flattering for my body type.

I typically wear a size 18 and it fit just right. I’m pretty top heavy so it was nice the material stretched but wasn’t uncomfortable. I probably would not recommend this for humid or warm temperatures simply because it is a little thicker but for my event that I attended, it was ideal. I personally did not see many flaws to the stress but I could see how overtime the sequins would eventually fall off. There were a couple of places where it was starting to become loose, However it was not noticeable. I’d say the only Con to this dress is that it is gold sequins but for some reason the zipper in the back is silver

Super cute and fun

This fit really well and looked great. I got lots of comments on it. As a coworker said "it's business on the top and party on the bottom." It's basically the mullet of the dress world! Loved wearing it and wish I didn't have to send it back.

Very comfortable, nice stretch to the fabric

I rented this dress for a christmas party that ended up getting canceled due to snow so I wore it for Christmas Eve instead! Threw a black cardigan over it to dress it down a little but was super comfortable all night and got tons of compliments from friends and family. The gold on the bottom was the right amount of flare. Wouldnt rent this dress in the summer as it is a heavy fabric but it was perfect for the winter.

Compliments ALL NIGHT!

This dress was PERFECT! The fit was excellent, not snug at all and I'm a solid 20/22. I didn't even need to wear Spanx. I literally got complimented all night long by everyone at the NYE party. The quality of this dress is unlike anything else I have ever worn: the fabric is thick and plush, the zipper moves effortlessly, and the sequins are not rough or agitating.

Great fit, something special to wear!

I am pregnant and was looking for a dress that didn't necessarily accentuate my belly. I had no idea what size would fit so I ordered a 16w and 14w. I wore the 14w but it was baggier than I'd expected. A 14 may have been a better fit especially due to the stretchy nature of the fabric.

There was lots of dancing and being able to move without feeling restricted was a huge plus.

It was so incredibly comfortable, it fit me a little big but kept it's shape so it wasn't totally obvious. I loved this dress and had plenty of compliments throughout the night.

Engagement Party

I can wear an 18-20-22 depending on the designer. I wore the 22 because I wasnt sure of the fit. It was a little loose but I was comfortable. Im not a fan of showing my arms so I wore a Bolero. I got loads of compliments too!!!

Comfort & Compliments!

This dress was perfect for a black tie event. I got so many compliments and it really was so comfortable. Fabric is a little weighted and physically heavy. Nice quality zipper and the fabric has a little stretch to it. I'm 5'5" so the highest point was right above my knee. Loved this dress!

This dress sure helped!

As soon as I put on this dress, I started jumping up and down. It fit perfectly and looks amazing. The fabric is thick so it's not really a summer wedding kind of dress. Though I wore it to an early fall wedding, the temps were in the high 80s so that was unexpected. Regardless, I felt great in the dress (minus some sweat during the outdoor ceremony) and received so many compliments. It was an awesome first experience with RTR and will use the service again!

the fact that i was dazzling in this dress

I ordered an 18 as a backup because the measurements provided fit my measurements perfectly but it is a dress so i figured i could fit into a 16 as well. the dress itself was too large for me in 18, so thankfully i i had 16 and I was so glad, the 16w size was perfect. It was a nice material that hid anything i did not want to show and the gold sequins made me look fabulous. It's a great length and it is flowy but not in a wind blows and you show everyone your underwear type. the dress itself was quite heavy, and when sitting down, I would be sitting on the sequined part and it would be a bit uncomfortable but not to the point that i was dreading to sit. overall the dress was perfect, if i had money to purchase it i would. this dress is perfect for a wedding, party, or formal affair.

Great fit and fun dress

I didn't actually wear it out because it's more formal than it looked in the photos. The material is also very heavy and didn't feel like it would be the best for mid 80 weather and humid. But I do like this dress a lot and would get it for new year's or some some other formal event not in the summer. The cut is very flattering. I really like this dress. I still have it for a few days and trying to find a formal indoor event to attend.

Soft, flattering fabric

Fun gold sequin bottom + thick, almost foamy fabric that smoothes the shape is a win. I am apple shaped and was pleased with how the waist fit and the skirt flows away from the body. The bottom half is two skirts, one underneath with gold sequins at the bottom, the skirt on top is just black. This dress was a good length on me, did not ride up or expose my butt when I leaned over. Wore this to a mostly indoor wedding with an outdoor cocktail hour, in July in New York City. I did not overheat, which was a nice surprise. Would rent again!

This dress fit perfect!! Great for a formal wedding.

The dress was made of a heavy material but I wore it to an outdoor summer wedding in VT. Would not recommend for a super hot day but the weather was in the high 70s. I received tons of compliments. Beautiful dress and fit perfect!!!
