This dress was my backup dress since the alternative size in the original dress wasn't available. This dress seems to run small and isn't flattering if you have a bigger middle section.
Lots of compliments. Runs large, especially around the waist and bust. Only drawback, the dress smelled of strong perfume, I'm assuming from the previous renter.
This dress fit beautifully. I am very busty but this dress fit like a dream. The longer length was great. I truly see no cons in this dress! I wore it for a comedy beauty pageant evening gown and received many compliments that night and into the next week. I highly recommend it to anyone who want to feel beautiful and elegant.
I am usually an 18-20 in "normal" (not designer) clothing. The 18WL was borderline too big and I wish my backup size had been the 16 instead of the 20. That said, the 18 fit and was comfortable, and at t 5'9", the tall was a good choice. The train dragged just a tiny bit, and the front wasn't too short. The ruching and sequins make this dress very flattering and forgiving. The top stays up effortlessly and I didn't have to worry at all about it gapping open.
This dress is stunning & received compliments all night. It was very comfortable! This dress is more of a brown/gold so I'm glad I waited until the dress arrived to buy shoes. Most "gold" shoes have a yellow gold tone. Cons: (1) If you have a stomach, avoid this dress at all cost. Even spanx can't help in this one. I hated every single picture of myself in this dress- despite people telling me all night long I looked fabulous (which is why I didn't post a pic). (2) Although I loved the mini train, I stepped on it all night and so did a lot of other people. (3) The zipper sticks.
RTR customer service was second to none-I live in rural area and rented this to be a bridesmaid for an out of town wedding-they extended my rental and sent it early and the second size thing was a life saver! I have been telling everyone about RTR-I had a great experience and can't wait for another occasion to rent. I WISH YOU DID COAT RENTALS!!!!!
Wore it to a company holiday party and then a friend's holiday party later the same night. Super comfy, but too big in the bust for me (I'm a 40 DD). It gaped too much and I was concerned I'd have to fuss with it all night. I was able to pin the top in a way to create a draped neckline look and then it was perfect. I was in three inch heels but it was almost too long (I'm 5'6") and I had to be very careful to hold it up. But, I felt fabulous and I would buy this dress!
I was so nervous on sizes, I've lost weight over the past year and didn't know what I would fit it, so I opted for an 18R and 20L. I tried on the 18 and it fit perfectly and with the help of Spanx, it looked incredible!! I loved everything about this dress. I am 5'9, I wore 3" heels and I wore the regular length. I think if I wore the long, I might have tripped over the front at some point. This is a really fabulous and stunning dress for any formal affair!
it was a little bit itchy but otherwise it was great.
The length, and fit were good - just as the other reviews said, it ran relatively true to size, even a little big. But I have a true hourglass figure and should have taken that into account. The neckline did nothing to accentuate my top. The draping of the waistline and hips, which would be gorgeous on a thin person, were horrible for me. But the dress itself is gorgeous, well made, and definitely leaves an impression.
Was very comfortable in this dress and loved how glamorous I felt wearing it.
The dress was beautiful. Cons: The dress itched something serious!!!
I'm really tall, so a little more length would have been appreciated. Dress didn't drag as I'd hoped :(
This style is very comfortable. The ruching in the midsection is very flattering. I would suggest it for women with a larger bust because, it can give the effect that your stomach and your bust are the same. Your curves could get lost in the ruching. The length is true, so it's not something to worry about. I felt like my skin tone was washed out with this color, so I would suggest it for darker skin tones. It was a very glamorous style!
Pros: great length, well-fitted, beautifully elegant style Cons: not recommended for small busts, some stray strings of fabric but BARELY even noticeable (nothing to worry about) #prom #Gatsby
I wore this dress for my birthday. I orderd a 18r and 20r, but the 20 was damaged (missing sequence at the bottom). Luckily, the 18r was a perfect fit! It hugged my curves and was very flattering to my body. It was very comfortable. Everyone thought I looked stunning! I felt like a queen!
The sleeves were a bit uncomfortable, but the dress looked great!
This dress captures the true essence of "Old Hollywood". The fit was great and I received many compliments...the dress was EVERYTHING!!!
I am 5'3", and normally wear a 16. I rented both the 16WR and 14WR. I was initially going to wear the 16, but the 14 fit better in the bust and i preferred the closer fit of the smaller size. The length was fine with a 2 heel. I absolutely LOVED the dress and received soooo many compliments, from many people I didn't now.
I was concerned about the fit because my 2nd size option was not available. The sleeves were a bit tighter, but worked to my advantage of making them look slimmer :). For full figured women, this dress WORKS having the extra room where needed. I wore a strapless bra for lift, but this has some built in support to go braless if you don't need the lift.
I loved the length it is usually hard to find dresses for tall girls. Also my waist was SNATCHED in this dress. I as getting compliments all night because not only did I stand out but I paired it with a red lip and red pumps. Definitely the belle of the ball.
Amazingly gorgeous dress but beware...any "Mummy Tummy" will show in this dress. Had to suck it in all night but other than that, it was old Hollywood Glamour! I'll be a forever customer RTR!!!
This was my backup dress after I received two dresses that definitely ran small. Same designer so I chose this one and in one size up from the largest in the previous dress. Well, it was BIG but I made it work. I did have to hold the dress up to walk since it was a long and if you don't have the right size in this dress, you may have to adjust the top from time to time. Overall I'm so glad I chose to wear this one to the Margarita Ball and received quite a few compliments.
I received this dress when my backup size became unavailable. The dress really is stunning and fit wonderfully. I still went with my original dress which I also loved. The main reason is because I really wasn't a fan of this shade of gold.
It fit well but I was a little self conscious of my mid section throughout the evening. The glittery material was not *super* forgiving to me. With that being said, it photographed well and I got a lot of compliments. Considering the fact that it's made up of sequins, I thought it was pretty darn comfortable.
I ordered this as my back up dress I have worn this designer before but this was too small. if you are thinking of getting this dress I would really recommend sizing up
I thought I would need a 16 but the 14 fit perfectly!
Sooo may compliments! This was my first rental and definitely not my last. The length was perfect enough to wear heels with the dress lightly brushing the floor. Material is stretchy and the design of the dress hides imperfections in tummy area. I loved the railings the back. I felt like royalty.
For Prom I ordered the 18WR and the 20WR (I'm the student council advisor at my school, so I get to go to Prom every year!) I normally wear an 18 and this dress fit perfectly. It fit my bust and curves and my husband stared all night. The only con was that it's a little long on my short stature and the small train in the back became a BIG train even with heels.
Fit well, was able to go smaller then expected, However, the color washed me out. Get a tan ladies :)
Beautiful dress, and if you don't want to show your arms this is a great alternative. A bit tight and the ruching acroos the waist is not the best for a tummy. Length was great though and the color is beautiful.
I loved the dress and I got so many compliments. I did feel like my tummy showed more than I would have liked, even with some shape wear. My hair got stuck to the sequins in the dress so I had to wear it in an updo. But overall this is really a lovely dress!
I am a boudoir and contemporary glamour portrait photographer, and I include a dress rental for every session. My client loved the off-the-shoulder look--something she normally wouldn't wear (which is the entire reason I include a dress rental--gives my clients a chance to wear something fab!). She is 5'4", size 40 bust, and a 16-18 dress size. The dress fit her very well--plenty of stretch to provide a good fit. http://shannonhemauerphotography.com/
This was a backup dress sent to replace the size 18 in the dress I ordered. However this dress was extremely small/tight on the arms, midsection & bust
Little right around the arms only....but with my spanx on it fit like a glove and hugged all my curves!! Thank you RTR!! I will be renting again for our next event!!
This was my first experience with RTR and I must say it was a positive one. The gowns arrived rather late on Friday evening and I was a bit panicked because the event was Sunday and the late arrival left me little time to get a replacement dress. Fortunately, I didn't need one. I would say the dress runs true to size. I wore the 16 but I could have worn the 14 because the shoulder area was a little big but the dress fit everywhere else. I received tons of compliments! I felt beautiful and glamorous. Hubby was wowed and that was all that matter!
It fit better than I expected. I was nervous about the ordering without trying it on. I was well pleased.
The fit was nice on the shoulders and the stomach. It did a weird thing with my boobs which I don't love. But The compliments were coming in left and right. Made me feel so elegant <3
The dress was exactly what I was hoping for. I loved the way it was shipped and packaged and it was so very comfortable. I got compliments all night. I would definitely rent the runway again!
You will be the star attraction!! It's a glittery sheath with lots of well placed ruching. If you are self conscious about your tummy it's not a good choice but it really makes your backside look fantastic! Celebrate the good bopo vibes and embrace all your curves!
