Sexy form-fitting dress
I wore this dress to an evening November cocktail party and wedding and I felt so comfortable in it. It is tight fitting but it hugs you in all the right places. My favorite part is the long sleeves. My husband loved the dress too.

Perfect fit
Rent this now. It's just fantastic. The fit is to die for. This designer never had zippers. I forget every time but the lines are perfect. You just learn how to squeeze into the dresses.

SO flattering! Tons of compliments.
Putting on this dress feels like putting on a scuba suit. The material sucks you in immediately and holds you there. It is so comfortable and allows for full range of movement. I did have a lot of extra material under my chest so probably could have sized down. Wore to a winter wedding and paired with a cute black sequin jacket from RTR. Tons of compliments!

Very elegant
The fabric and neckline gives this dress a very elegant look. It is VERY firm-fitting and doesn't hide much. Fabric is a thin, high-quality, scuba-like fabric. My only complaint is that the liner kept showing at the neckline.

Simple and classic LBD with a fantastic fit.
Classic LBD. Form fitting but also forgiving. Material is really thick like a scuba suit and goes on like a scuba suit would. Dress is very comfortable once on and can be dressed up or down for the occasion. I felt like a million bucks and would rent this dress again, especially if an event required sleeves. Dress was perfect for winter wear. Both sizes felt equally tight across, given the form-fitting nature of the dress, but the size 42 felt too long in the torso. I usually order long length dresses for both torso and leg length, but the size 40 was plenty long and didn't bunch across the waist or hips due to extra material like the size 42. Chest area easily accommodated curves without being too low cut, and the built in support worked in lieu of a bra.

Wish I Could Purchase
I was nervous about this free fitting. I'm top heavy and when things fit my top they are usually too big on the bottom, but this dress fit me perfectly. I received so many compliments on it. The best part was being able to eat comfortably. And being able to get out on the dance floor and move in this dress. I would love to purchase it if it ever goes on sale with RTR.

Super classy, sexy dress!
The dress ran small so I was thankful I ordered a size larger! Still, fit was snug on biceps and thighs. I have an athletic build with a short torso. The fit was so flattering (even in those snug places). I had many, many compliments! I also liked stepping into the dress versus over the head - better for that hair and makeup! I will order RTR again. Return was easy too.

Do you want to look thinner?
This dress is made of such a great slimming material with no hooks or zippers to bunch or pinch. The chest is slightly padded and shaped, no need to wear a bra, especially since the cut is wide and straps would show. I wore this to work with a blazer, so you can dress it up or down. Need a little black dress that you can feel confident wearing? Well here it is!

Sexy!
I love this designer's dresses. There is no zipper but don't be put off by that. I did my hair and makeup first, then got into the dress by stepping in through the top, rather than pulling it over my head. The dress has enough stretch to be able to do that.

Like a Glove
As other reviewers have said, this thing goes on like a scuba suit and feels really comfortable once it's on. Built-in bra does not lift but hides nipples. It is low in the front and shows cleavage, so not really appropriate for work, but goes to dinner just fine. I am a size 8, and the torso part had some room in it, as you can see in the photo.

The dress was super slimming. It has a built in bra, but I still wore one. The material was like a scuba material. I actually stepped into it because it has no zipper. Wish I could buy it! Will rent again.

Body conscious dress perfect for curvy girls
I received this dress as a backup when my original selection was unavailable at the last minute. While I was frustrated at the last-minute switch up by RTR, this dress turned out to be a total success - possibly even better than my first choice! This dress is made from a very forgiving high-quality stretch fabric that was comfortable for a day of dancing, eating & drinking at a wedding. It hugged my curves in all the right places and showed the right amount of skin that allowed me to feel both elegant and sexy. I highly recommend this dress to girls of any shape/size, but definitely want to highlight this as a strong contender for curvy girls!

Everything you've ever wanted in a dress! I'm 5'3 and 174 pounds with a large bust.
This is probably the most flattering dress I've ever worn. I can't say enough about how well this fit, how it minimized all of my problem areas, how it slimmed my figure, how it supported my large chest... how it made me feel sexy! I got so many compliments on it -- it's striking and people notice. It's a stretchy material, but it's thick and supportive, which is what you need to suck you in and smooth you out. It does go on tight, but it's the right kind of tight. I didn't even wear any kind of Spanx. I have a 40DDD chest and I was worried that this would not support me well or that the built-in padding would look ridiculous... or that i would be spilling out of it. Not the case at all! I suppose there was a bit of an outline from the padding that you could kind of notice, showing that it didn't fully cover my big boobs, but it's really not worth mentioning -- it certainly didn't take away from the look of the dress. This is one of the few dresses I've ever been able to wear without a bra -- which is a huge plus! I asked if I could buy it, but it's not available for sale, so I've got to find it elsewhere. I would wear it to every event and not care who had already seen me in it. This is the kind of classic dress that will carry you through the years.

I am 62 years old. This dress fit and flattered without making me look like I was trying too hard
The dress fit like a glove without being funny. I think it took at least 10 years off me, without making me look like I was trying to dress like a teenager. I just love it.

Gorgeous!!! This dressed hugged my curves in all the right places! It was very comfortable and extremely flattering. I really wish I could've kept this one....I will more than likely rent it again. It was a hit at my work function, everyone loved it and said I should consider buying it. It is fairly thick material but very breathable. I had to wear the sticky bra cups because my regular bra showed with the sweetheart cut neckline. Omg I seriously can't say enough great things about this dress!!! Just rent it!

This dress fit like a glove. I felt confident and sexy in it.
The dress is low cut but not so much so that you may feel overly exposed. It fits to the body so well that all of my curves were shown in just the right ways. Would definitely wear the dress again.

I wore this dress for my work Christmas party, I was nervous about the fit cause they didn't have a back up size for me. The dress fit great, hugged all my curves. I'm not very busty, but this dress made me look busty! Very classy, perfect black dress

Fancy formal work holiday party
I looooooove this dress. I would love to own it! The sleeves and dress length make up for the ample skin shown by the beautiful neckline. I would have liked to try the size down but it wasn't available - it also might have been too tight in the bust. I found the waist to be not as fitted as I'd have liked, again not sure if a smaller size would have helped or not. Anyway this dress is an A+ and a perfect 10.

Elegant and classy dress that shows off curves
I rented this as an emergency back-up when the first dress I ordered turned out to be unflattering. I ordered the 48 and 46 - both fit but I wanted to wear the smaller size. I didn't realize until I came home from the event I accidentally wore the larger size. It was loose all night which you can see from the pics, but this dress has great stretch so even a snug fit should still work for you. The material is amazing and hides everything. I got compliments ALL night on this dress. I know some people said stepping into the dress was weird but for the material and fit it makes perfect sense. The seams on the bust do come out a bit, but at a nighttime event it is not noticeable. I plan on renting this again but be warned it shows a LOT of cleavage.

Wore this to my friend's birthday party!
This dress has no zip. You have to basically step into it. However, the material is very thick and it stretches very well. It definitely shows a lot of cleavage (so for my bustier ladies beware). Also, this dress run large. I could have worn a size 8. Nonetheless it is very comfortable to dance it and it does not ride up (for the hourglass figure ladies like me). It is nice for a party or a black tie event.

So many compliments on this dress! Great material, great stretch, the outline of the top makes the dress, but it could also be a little revealing for some situations. Overall, HIGHLY suggest this dress.

The dress is a classic LBD with a sexy touch. The cut of the neckline and openness make for such flattering look. Will rent this dress again!

Loved this dress and this cut!
I am glad I got one size smaller which is what I ended up wearing that that fit perfectly and a little tight which was great! The size I thought I wanted (40) fit but because there is stretch there was a bit more room and I have a smaller chest. :/ The dress is very comfortable and has a nice stretch to it. I loved it!

Great LBD for hourglass figures! Classy and a little sexy
This dress worked well for my body type-- I have a small waist but big hips and chest area. This dress brought out my curves in a flattering way. My only issue is when I wore it, it stretched throughout the night and got a little bigger than when I originally tried it on. It also tends to ride up. But still classy, sophisticated yet a little sexy for those with hourglass figures. It would look more conservative on those with less curves.

My boyfriend was speechless when he saw me!
My boyfriend is a journalist and thus pretty good at using words to describe things. However, when I came out in this dress (which I wore to dinner for our 1 year anniversary), he was absolutely speechless. The dress is nicely made and shapes you well! As mentioned prior, there isn't a need for undergarments with this beauty, but I decided to wear seamless panties anyways for my own comfort. There is a built in bra that contains things quite nicely while also giving them a good lift. The material does suck you in and hides many flaws very well without feeling too tight. There wasn't a time where I felt like I couldn't breathe or eat because of it. I would say that the dress is a little long for my taste (I'm 5'6"), but perhaps the longer length of the dress makes up for its generous show off of cleavage. In all, thus dress is pretty amazing! If I could afford it, I would probably buy it - it really does look that great! As always the RTR experience was fantastic!! They are always working to make you as happy as can be and I love that about them!
