Comfy showstopper
I wore this for New Years. I can't really think of anything wrong with it. It was so comfy, it fits true to size, it has pockets, and I got a million compliments. Hands down one of the best dresses I've ever worn.

Amazing dress!
Great quality, got so many compliments on it. I highly recommend this dress for a formal affair. Unless you're ok with a bra showing through the mesh in the back (which I don't recommend because it takes away from the beading detail) you can't really wear a bra with it. this wasn't a problem for me because I don't have any boobs, but something to keep in mind for those that do!

I got so many compliments on this dress which I wore to a black tie wedding in NYC. The front v- neck is perfect to show some cleavage, but the back is a total show stopper. It's sexy, shows a bit of skin but is so eye-catching. The dress has pockets which was perfect for my phone all night and is just a great classic silhouette. I have a true pear shape- boobs, smaller waste and substantial thighs and behind and this dress accented the best parts of my figure! Would totally rent again

Wonderful for Cocktail Attire Wedding
This dress was a perfect choice for a fall wedding at restaurant in New York. It was thick enough to be warm but not too thick that you are overly hot. The dress is tight enough that a bra is not needed, although I wouldn't suggest it for smaller chested women, since the top is preformed a bit on top. Perfect length and material for a fancier cocktail style wedding or event. The only complaint I would have is toward the end of the night it rubbed a bit on my arm, but it wasn't too bad and 99% of the time I was comfortable in it. I felt very pretty and received a million compliments about the back especially. Also, the cutouts in the front are flattering.

Whoa!!!
This dress is drop dead gorgeous! It was so flattering and classy! My only issue is the back (which I still love) would catch/snag on the back of my chair....I had to put a lap napkin on the back of the chair so it wouldn't snag...but so worth it -- so pretty.

This was for a rehearsal dinner at the Rainbow Room in NYC! It was beyond perfect!
The fit was very true to size. I typically wear and 8 and it fit like a glove. I have an hourglass figure so the waist line was gorgeous. The back is sheer and you can wear it with a nude bra and it's not that noticeable. The V neckline was also very flattering. I am 5'6" so the tea length was perfect and went right below my knees. You can wear open or closed toe'd shoes and the fabric of the dress makes it appropriate for any season. I have always loved and admired Lela Rose and so happy RTR had it.

Loved this dress! I sized down from my typical size 6 to a 4. The material was thick, but the open back helped it breathe since I wore it to a summer black tie wedding. I received TONS of compliments!

Beautiful and comfortable!
I loved this dress! It was classy and the back made it extra fun. I got compliments all night and some people who were hesitant about RTR can't wait to try it. The fit was true to size and left room for eating and dancing. I didn't want to send it back! Definitely worth renting.

Gorgeous, unique dress!
Loved this dress for a black tie optional wedding! The length is fun and made it feel more formal, and the back is absolutely stunning. The fabric is high quality and thick enough that I chose to go braless, but you could easily wear a Nu bra instead. It was so comfortable, the skirt was super fun to dance in, and everyone at the wedding loved the dress!! Fit true to size on an hourglass shape.

LOVED this dress, I would definitely rent it again, the back was so sexy and fun and young. I danced all night and felt supported but also like the ladies were out for the night ;) I loved the way it looked on my body, wish it came in a more exciting color than black!

Beautiful, High Quality Formal Classic Dress
I rented this dress for a formal work event and loved it!! I always feel awkward in floor length gowns unless it's a wedding so I went with this tea / knee length dress. The material is gorgeous. Has a nice weight to it. It fits absolutely true to size with loads of room in the hips and butt should you need it. There's a good deal of fabric and it has a slight sheen to it. With the back, the dress is certainly formal but understated. I got a lot of attention from it. I felt perfectly classy and dressed up without being too sexy or trendy. It has little pockets which was nice to hold your phone or a lipstick if you don't want to carry a purse!!! It twirls nicely and the back is obviously a winner. You can't wear a bra but the material is thick and shouldn't be a problem. I'm a standard B cup and had plenty of roll in the bust, yet didn't feel empty. I imagine a larger bust couldn't fit perfectly. The waist was comfortable and fit nicely without being tight at all. I'm tall at 5'9 and the dress went just below the knee, so on a shorter girl it would be more of a tea length but I think it wood be cute. It doesn't wrinkle and was very comfortable. The back is quite sparkly in the right light but doesn't photograph easily as sparkly so expect it to appear sparklier in person. I loved this dress. I was very happy with it. It fit so true to size I don't know how to recommend sizing up or down. It has just the right amount of room that I can't imagine anyone's true size wouldn't fit in this dress but not enough room to want to size down at all unless perhaps you have the tiniest waist / upper body??? But no. Absolutely true to size.

My absolute favorite dress!!
Such a gorgeous and classy dress! Wore to a formal wedding-I had people coming up and complimenting me all night- even from the bartenders and staff! The full skirt was so fun to dance in and the fit was flattering and comfortable. The back added a beautiful, fun detail- must be worn with a nubra!

This dress made me feel so comfortable and beautiful!
The dress is perfect for a cocktail or formal occasion. The length makes it versatile. The front of the dress is so classy and it has pockets, the back is stunning and elegant! I received compliments all night. It was the best looking dress at a very stuffy event :) Normally I'm a 0-2. They only had the 2 in stock. It was a tad big in my waist but it allowed me to feel comfortable all night.

The sparkle on the back!
Loved this dress, plus it has pockets! I could put my phone in my pocket and check my purse at the coat check for a worry free night. I thought the dress looked very classic and was flattering to my figure. The only downside to it was that you have to wear a sticky bra or something like it, and also the sparkle on the back was just a bit itchy, but bearable to look the way I wanted to on NYE! The dress is fabulous.

Large corporate holiday party.
I reserved the 8 and the 6; the 8 was a little big. Since you cannot wear a traditional bra with the dress, the six fit much better. The dress is very beautiful and I received a lot of compliments. It is comfortable, looks good dancing and has pockets.

Stylist Review
This fit and flare is a fun Tea length dress option. The V neck is the perfect depth and the back of this dress is absolutely stunning. The intricate detailing is beautiful. You must wear no bra or a nubra due to the sheer back. I recommend sizing up for back up.

Back details were beautiful but front didn't do much for me
The back of this dress is beautiful and would look great at a formal event or wedding. I didn't wear because the front did nothing for my figure. The dress seems a little long as well but on the right body this could be a showstopper.

Beautiful Back
Overall I loved this dress, and it was a hit with other party-goers. Cut around the pockets was strange, though. The pockets were a nice feature but the lining inside them is falling apart so things occasionally fell through. Also, the hem was undone at the back of the dress - double sided tape fixed it but that eventually came out too.

Beautiful! But not the right fit for me
I did not end up wearing this dress. I was so sad this dress did not work for my body. It is gorgeous to look at, and the details on the back make it so unique. However, there are pleats right at the waist that made me look a little pregnant (no need to start rumors!). Maybe when I actually have a bump to show off I will rent again.

Beautiful dress. It is very flattering. Because the back is sheer you can not wear a bra with it. It also is pretty fancy so plan on wearing it to a formal event.

Pretty but runs large
Dress is very pretty however I am a size 8 and I could have easily done a size 6. Large in the chest area as well. I think the dress would be very pretty on a tall woman but not for someone under 5'7". I just felt swallowed up by the dress. The back detailing is very beautiful.
