A beautiful gown that made a spectacular evening perfect!
Size worn: 12L
Overall fit: Small
Rented for: Formal Affair
The dress is actually much "prettier" in person. The color is a rich slate gray,almost blue.
I am definitely a curvy girl , a 36DDD, and this is the only strapless dress I have ever worn that manged to "stay put" for an entire evening. It is very tight through the bust, but I did not need to wear a bra and the "stays" helped keep it in place. The lingerie straps were a bit of a nuisance and there was a stay/rib that kept poking me under the arm, but not enough discomfort to deter form the overall comfort. I received more compliments than I can count.I wore it with my own "bubble" necklace and a big gold cuff bracelet. I am 5"9" and the 12L was perfect with 4" heels.
I did lightly steam it, the crepe fabric was a bit wrinkled upon arrival, but I am super picky about those details. I recommend this dress highly and I look forward to renting it again.

This dress was a hit at the ball that I wore it to -- a Mardi Gras Ball i n New Orleans :)
Size worn: 2R
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Formal Affair
I am 5'2" and between 115 and 125 -- the 2R fit perfectly. Because I am a little more blessed in the bust region, I got the 4R as a backup, and it was way too big. I paired the dress with a bauble necklace, aptly named Pirate's Treasure, that I rented from RTR.
Unfortunately, none of the pictures of the dress came out well as the venue was too dark, but trust me, I got a ton of compliments. What's not to love? It's silk, Badgley Mischka, a beautiful gray tone and moves like waves when you walk!

Perfection!
Size worn: 2R
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Formal Affair
I loved this dress! This was my first RTR experience. I was nervous about how it would go, particularly since I am really small on top but have proportionately larger hips and am barely 5'4". I ordered the 2R and it fit almost perfectly. The length was right-on with 4 inch heels; the dress does have a bit of a train in back, so I had to keep a hand free for walking around, but that was not a major issue. The dress did slide down on top a bit as the night wore on, and the boning was a bit twisted, making for a bit of unevenness in the bust area, but I think I was the only one who noticed. The empire-waist fit was extremely flattering. I felt beautiful in this dress and would rent it again in a heartbeat!

Great dress. Got a 6 and 4 and wore the 4. Felt more secure with tighter dress. Very comfortable and you don't have to worry about any wardrobe malfunctions!

Very pretty color and drapes nicely.
Size worn: 6R
Overall fit: Small
Rented for: Formal Affair
I usually wear a 4 or 6 and based on other reviews I wore the 6 in this dress because the boning (sp?) on this dress makes it run a little small. I was sitting at a formal dinner and it did get a little uncomfortable. Not uncomfortable enough that I wouldn't wear it again. I got a ton of compliments on this dress!

cons - the extra size ordered, a 4R seemed worn out. the bust's wiring was messed up. The size I wore was fine, but also seemed to be slightly misshapen.

I was skeptical of the tapering on this dress in person, because I've seen some knock-off Adrianna Papell dresses in person and they look like Cinderella AFTER her wicked stepsisters tore all the fabric off her dress. However, this dress is GORGEOUS. I am so sad that it would not fit me. The top is structured and unforgiving, so if you have a chest, order up. In terms of height, I am 5' flat and this would have been perfect with 2" heels.

Makes your waist look tiny and ruffle hide any other flaws
Size worn: 6R
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Formal Affair
I rented two dresses for a black tie event, and went back and forth up until the final minutes, but ultimately wore the other dress. I did love this dress though, and it is amazingly flattering. Makes your waist look tiny and the ruffles hide any other flaws. I'm a 34C and there was still quite a bit of room at the bust, but it looked fine. The neckline is very flattering too. If you're 5'6" and up, you might want to consider the L length. I ordered an R and it would have worked fine, but my toes were peeking out a bit.

Showstopper
Size worn: 6L
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Wedding
I loved this dress! I got a lot of compliments, and threw it in as a backup. It was darker than I thought, and kind of has a mild ombre to it. It fit like a true 6, but I was really disappointed that even with an "L" this dress ran a little short on me (I'm 5'10"). It wasn't terrible, but with heels my feet popped out from underneath. The cut on the bias on the bottom and ruffles helped make it look a little longer though.
Badgley MIschka has a very specific boning and sweetheart cut that is flattering, but can be uncomfortable. The boning is kind of like a short corset, and the bust is a little severe if you're not busty. The points of the sweetheart cut actually cut into my skin at some points. Lots of compliments, nonetheless. It was perfect for a black tie event.

Great dress but RTR need to send it to a tailor!
Size worn: 12L
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Wedding
I wore this dress for a black tie wedding. It was flattering and easy to move in, however, the bodice is very structured and some of the wires in it were poking out and stabbed me all night in my chest every time I moved. The left side of my chest has bright red dots and is tender two days later.

Fun, flirty, and comfortable
Size worn: 2L
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Formal Affair
I rented this dress in February for a Mardi Gras ball. It fit perfectly and was so comfortable yet elegant enough for the formal affair. I am tall so the long was the perfect length for me with 4 inch heels. I was originally a little hesitant about the layered ruffles but thankfully they did not stand out as much as they do in the picture for my style is more of a classic-preppy look. I would definitely rent this dress again.

Understated but lovely
Size worn: 4R
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Formal Affair
Wore this to a graduation ball and really liked it. I had to rent a size up since the 2 was taken so it was a little big, but my regular size would have been perfect. Dress was a touch long with 3.5" heels but looked beautiful and flowy. The color is a dark charcoal/midnight blue and isn't at all showy, but the style makes the dress stand out.
The boning is metal and poked through the lining in a few places (check carefully before putting it on!), but the bodice offered enough support that bra was not needed, and likely would have shown anyway.

Didn't fit right, didn't wear
Size worn: 10L
Overall fit: Large
Rented for: Formal Affair
I am generally between a 10 and 12 -- 10 on top and 12 on the bottom, but I own a Badgely Mishka in a 10 and it fits me fine so I rented this as an alternative dress. The problem for me was the boning in the top -- maybe because I have smaller breasts, but the boning made me look like I had 1950s pointy boobs and it just didn't work right. It's a lovely dress but just didn't look good on me.

I wore this dress to my junior prom and got many compliments. The dress was simple but elegant and the sweet heart neckline plus the ruching on top gave an extra flair. Mind you, spinning with the ruffles is fun too. The only drawback was that it was slightly too big my rib cage. Other than that it was wonderful and I definitely recommend it.

Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Formal Affair
This dress was a dream to wear! The fit is wonderful and the ruffles are very forgiving to the lower body! If you have a large bust (by large, I mean DD and up) you should size up as the bodice is very fitted in that area. I'm 5'7" and 2.5" heels were perfect, so even my feet were comfy! Got compliments all night--it really is a beautiful dress, and not the usual thing one sees at formals.

I ordered the 8R for a black tie wedding. I am only 5' 4" and even without any shoes on it was too short - could not have even worn flats. Only came to my ankles. Otherwise it's a beautiful gown and very flattering.

I absolutely loved this dress! It fit well, other than at the bust because I'm small chested. Other than that, it was amazing. This dress is very light weight, which surprised me. The length was perfect! I had to send this dress back, but I will be ordering it again. Another con was, I ordered the 0 AND 2 but I was only sent size 2 because they didn't have it in the warehouse. I hope to order this dress again, but with my proper size, 0. Loved it!

This was a beautiful dress. I usually wear an 8 but they only had a 6 and sent that. It did fit, despite my 34/36c bust size, but I spilled out over the sides a wee bit.
If I had gotten it in an 8, I think it would have been perfect, and I would have been so happy to wear it. The dark blue color is beautiful, and the fabric feels wonderful. The construction is great, and it looks classy. If you can go sleeveless, you can't go wrong with this dress.

I loved this dress! I wore it to my cousin's wedding and had sooo many compliments. The picture does not do it justice whatsoever, I ordered it as my 3rd choice because the other ones I wanted were not available for the date. I am SOOO HAPPY I ended up with this one. It is NOT GRAY, it is NAVY BLUE. Regardless I wore it with Black pumps and looked gorgeous.
Can't wait to use RTR again :)

It's a lovely dress and comfy. I would even say it runs a smidge large, so if you are picking a second size you might want to go for a smaller one.
