Tight in the chest so side up but so amazing otherwise.

No bra needed because of the corset top which is amazing! The dress is very structured and can stand on its own. No complaints at all with the beading or weight of the dress. Perfect length with 3 inch heels.

Top fit perfectly but I am a 36 A. Could be snug for fuller chested ladies. I absolutely loved it and felt beautiful.

Great dress, got tons of compliments! It was not quite floor length on me at 5'7" with 3 inch heels. It's also super heavy and the full skirt is a little dramatic. Runs a little small in the chest area, I would size up if you have a larger chest.

This dress is so stunning in person!! Beautiful quality and design, I feel like a literal princess in it!!

It was a little small could barely breathe but got to most gorgeous photos in it! Perfect for an event!!

As others said the dress is stiff and the waist is itchy due to the stiffness, so be prepared to cover your mid section with shape ware. The small fit perfectly, so many compliments. I felt so beautiful

I was obsessed with this dress as soon as I took it out of the bag! It’s absolutely gorgeous, received compliments all night. The small fit perfect, I’m usually a 4, small chest. The boning at one point became a little painful and the beading is heavy so I wouldn’t wear it on a super hot day.

Such a beautiful dress and perfect for a black tie occasion. It's heavy due to being so incredibly detailed and has a structured bodice but is such a dreamy dress!

Fit perfect!

I love this dress. It’s so beautiful in real life and fit me like a glove. I received so many compliments and felt like a celebrity at the Met gala. The only difference is that I could eat, sit and dance in it. I’m usually in XS but the S fits the chest better. It has some weight to it due to the horse hair, but not heavy or bulky.

Beading can cause skin irritation but I firmly believe beauty is sometimes painful. The dress is perfection and got lots of compliments!

This dress is definitely a showstopper. The waistband was a little itchy, so I wore a tube top around my waist and it solved the problem perfectly. It’s also on the heavier side, but I wore it in Florida in May and was still comfortable. The vibe wasn’t “steal your man” glamorous — it was more magical princess energy, with little girls stopping to ask if I was one. I truly felt like a princess wearing it! I wore 4” platform wedges and it was about 2” off the ground.

This *ball gown* did not disappoint. I wore it to a black tie wedding that requested “spring themes” and I was easily one of the best dressed guests. So many compliments — one person said, “I just groaned when I saw your dress. It’s so beautiful, it’s not fair!” Be warned though — only wear this to the right kind of event. It would be very easy to accidentally upstage the bride in this dress!

This is a floral dream and feels like you are in a fairytale! There are little pearls in the flowers. This dress is so beautiful and I felt so beautiful in it. I got many compliments. It is also sturdy, structural and a bit heavy. If you set it down, the dress will just stand up by itself. I think this is a good thing and didn't mind. Fit wise: 5'4", 140 lbs, bust 32c The dress fit well in a medium. Notes: the bust was loose unless I was standing up very straight, inhaling then I filled it out. The waist seam material was slightly scratchy, you may want to wear shape wear to cushion the area.

I wish I could wear this to every formal event ever. So many compliments. Was fantastic for a black tie wedding. I disagree with the other reviewers that said it’s hard to sit in & stiff… it was so easy to wear & never in the way. Chomping at the bit for another excuse to rent!

The structure is amazing

It's very heavy, but details are adorable

Photos will not do the detailing of this ballgown justice!

This dress arrived, brand new with tags, which we love. When I pulled it out of the bag, I was shocked at how stunning and structured it was. Similar to what the other commenters have said, it is truly for a formal black tie wedding. The garment is breathtaking and because I was on vacation, I made myself wear it out to dinner. Every single person I passed commented on how gorgeous this dress was. It's truly amazing. The pictures don't do the dress a shred of justice. It looks like it should be featured in a magazine. I would describe it as shockingly beautiful. After my wedding dress, it was the most gorgeous dress I've ever physically had on my body. I will absolutely rerent for a formal affair down the road. If you are thinking of renting this dress, here are my thoughts on it. It favors a modest to smaller bust line, if I'm being honest. It's extremely structured in the corset top and made for someone with a petite upper torso. I personally think a woman with a DD bust line would have trouble getting into it or be uncomfortable. Size up if anything. I am a 0 in jeans and a 4 in dresses. The 4 fit a bit snug. There's 0 give in the dress so size up if you're unsure.

Got so so many compliments! It’s the perfect length for shorter girlies. It the embellishments can irritate your skin a bit at the top but it was manageable.

The wedding theme was “outshine the bride” and this dress DELIVERED! I received endless compliments all night! Fair warning it was a little hard to get on/ zip up as it’s tight in the chest area but fit like a glove once it was on.

The dress is gorgeous, it fits great on my body but it is extremely big on my chest.

The most incredible dress I have ever had! Princess! Heavy and stays put. Heavyyyy but gorgeous

I got soooo many compliments on this dress. It's also like 10 lbs and doesn't have pockets! You could totally wear a skirt under it and be a princess. I'm a L and the L was tight - I had to get help zipping it and it hurt my ribs a little, but it hid the girls well and everything stayed in place!

I really wanted this to fit. The medium was just too small.

Beautiful dress but didn't wear it since it gaped too much on top.

This dress is so much fun to wear! I wore it to a wedding with a formal dress code, but I was definitely the most formally dressed with this dress. In the end I didn't mind because I felt beautiful! A few things to note: -I understand how fit could be an issues like other reviews have mentioned. If you have a broader chest I'd say size up. I have an average chest and bust size so the medium fit true to size. -The color is not a true pink like it looks in the RTR photos. It's definitely more peachy-pink

Beautiful floral dress! It is made out of a stiff material that holds its shape. You could put a petticoat underneath to make the skirt fuller.

Fits beautifully and flowers look great, perfect for spring events. Material is a tad scratchy though near the top and due to size it's difficult to pack if taking it in a suitcase.

This dress is stunning and excellent quality. Definitely will need to be steamed after getting it out of the bag. I ended up fitting into the larger size I ordered and was maybe a little roomy in the bust still. I ended up not wearing it, but would consider again for a very formal black tie occasion.

Absolutely STUNNING in photos! However, it is made completely out of horse hair fabric with beautiful embroidery details so if you're not OK with being uncomfortable, pick another dress. It was worth every second of the slight discomfort for the gasps, complements and exquisite photos!!

Got so many compliments on this! It was beautiful and very fun to wear!

Unfortunately, I didn't wear it because it was too formal for the wedding I rented it for but WOW. This dress is stunning and I hope I have a formal event soon so I can rent again.

Ok, this is THE most beautiful dress I have ever worn, and I am a dress gal. It is fully structured, and has a hoop like skirt making the dress also, very heavy. This was a contender for a wedding, but honestly, like another woman mentioned- is more suitable for either a black tie wedding, or the main event character. It fits a little tight, so I would go with your usual size or even up one.

This is an extremely high quality gown. Truly stunning and unique. However, it is not comfortable and very heavy. If you know what you’re getting, I do think it would be worth the discomfort.

Wow - this dress is honestly a showstopper! But it requires a very specific occasion - would be perfect if you’re the host / birthday girl / etc of a formal affair. I ordered it for a friend’s black tie optional wedding, and it fit perfectly (I’m normally a 2 and ordered the Small). However I personally would not feel comfortable showing up in this as it’s quite “loud” and VERY structured- it basically feels like it has a hoop skirt or tulle in it. I have no idea how the RTR team got it into the bag with my 4 other items. Gorgeous dress, but not for this time!
