Loads of Compliments
I wore this to a beach wedding on cape cod and it was absolutely perfect. The only thing is you must buy commando underwear with this as except for the bust it is completely UNLINED and somewhat sheer. I was very self conscious at first but I have a decent behind so I got over it eventually, but it is kind of see through and really skims your backside closely, so be prepared! Other than that everyone said it was gorgeous and it's sexy without being slutty, and very comfortable to wear.

It was my first time on the red carpet, and it felt so great to have so many respected actors and directors tell me they loved my dress. I felt so high-class and OWNED the night!
I absolutely loved this dress. I'm somewhere between a size 2 and size 4, so I ordered both the 38 and the 40, but I ended up wearing the 38. I'm 5'7" and wore 5 inch heels, and the gown barely touched the ground. I was worried about what the gown would look like in terms of matching skin tones, but it wasn't a problem before or after I went in for a spray tan ;) The dress comes with the pictured belt, but I chose not to wear it.

Pretty, comfy, but not a knock-out
This was my back-up dress and I didn't end up wearing it. It was too casual for the black tie spring wedding I was attending, and the fabric was so thin that my husband and my friend were able to see my tattoo through the dress. It is a very pretty, easy dress and the coral color is stunning. It is made out of a crepe that has a little bit of stretch, so it is very comfortable. As you can see in the picture, it hit just at the floor on me in bare feet, and I am 5'3". It was perfect for me, but if you are tall it might be an odd ankle length for you. I tried the 4 as well and although it fit, it was much shorter on me than the 6 and I wouldn't have worn it. As other reviewers have said the fabric is VERY THIN. Make sure you've got nude-colored underwear and have thought through how you would cover up anything you don't want to show through, like a tattoo! I would rent this dress again for a different event, such as a summer beach wedding or a more casual outdoor event.

Pretty color and comfy
Very pretty color but a few ladies told me it looked better with out the belt. I'm only 5'1" and I thought it was a little too short with 4 inch heels.

This dress was EXACTLY what I wanted. The fit was perfect {although I expected it to be a little longer} and very flattering.

Good overall.
The dress was much shorter than described. I am 5'8" and ordered a long. I had to wear completely flat sandals instead of the heels I had planned. Also, the belt seemed cheap, and I replaced it with a nicer gold toned skinny belt. Other than the length, the fit was perfect. The dress is unlined so requires appropriate undergarments. The color is a pretty coral and not too bright.

awesome! but thin material
I wore this dress for a black tie wedding in NYC on the 4th of July. It was the perfect combination of summery and dressy and I got dozens of compliments. I opted not to wear the belt, as it looked kind of cheap. Just FYI the material is extremely thin so you will need the appropriate underwear. Also, even the tiniest bit of sweat will completely show through the ultra thin material. Because the wedding I attended was outside and the temperature topped 100 degrees, I had to be really careful with the heat. Once we were in the air conditioned reception hall it was perfectly fine, but just be wary if you plan on wearing this dress outside in the summer.

Didn't work
I ordered this dress and three other styles for my maid of honor to wear on my wedding day. They didn't have the Tibi Catalina Gown in the 10, so they sent me this one as a replacement. BTW, thank you rent the runway for overnighting it to make sure that I had 4 dresses for her to try. Anyhow, this one was wayyyy too long (and she's 5'9"), very thin and shows imperfections that us ladies would rather hide. Also, RTR didn't send the belt with it. Overall, it wasn't a winner for us.

I Rented, But Did NOT Wear
So, I took this dress as a second option but I didn't wear it. I don't have much to say about it except that the material is kind of sheer almost. You DEFINITELY need nude undergarments for this one. Also, the regular size isn't long enough for average high heels. You need to go a little lower if you rent this dress and intend to wear heels. I am 5'5 and with heels, this dress was too short. I also took the long and it was LONG. I hope this helps, sorry I don't have a picture for this one.
