This dress isn't made for full bust women. Even with all the proper undergarments it didn't work for me. If you have a smaller bust, go for it! It's a ton of fun!

Absolutely amazing dress! So much fun to wear -- perfect combination of formal yet sexy. It is worth noting that the color is navy, not black. 

This dress was amazing, as it accented my tiny waist, while leaving room for my larger behind to fit in it. I had so many compliments, it made the night that much more fun. The only issue I had was the strap was large on my shoulder, but I pinned it and there was no issue. 

I got this dress because I got an invitation to a black tie optional wedding and couldn't decide between a short and a long dress.  This dress was a hit the whole night!  It was super fun and the color was beautiful in person.  I will say that the front that is short...is really short, especially when you sit down, so if you are worried about that you might want to order a larger size.  Overall, this dress was a win and was very pretty.  So many compliments!

This dress fits true to size. It is a little short but with the sheer train it works perfectly. The dress is actually more blue in person. I had to steam this dress a great deal because of all of the tulle but it was well worth it!! Made me feel like the belle of the ball!!!

I tried both dresses on 3 times before deciding which to wear. I ended up going with the 8R because the bust area in the 10R was way to big for me. Other than that, it really would have been a great fit. The 8R was kind of snug but I had no choice. When I sat down the dress rode all the way up...I mean all the way. I had a shawl to cover myself with though so I was able to take care of that. I'm really glad RTR sent the fabric tape because it came in handy. I used it to tape the dress down along the bust area of the sleeveless side. 

I normally am a size two but the 2R was unavailable so we got the 0 & the 4. The 0 fit perfectly on me. It wasn't too tight and i didn't feel like it looked too tight or anything. I was skeptical about the tulle but it really pulled the dress together. I got compliments all night. So happy with all the prom pictures!

The dress came in the day before my event.  When I tried it on, the dress was stunning.  The fit was almost perfect.  If you have a small bust, the dress is going to be a tad loose in that area, but the fashion tape made the problem disappear. Trust me, if you wear this dress, you'll get tons of compliments.  I wore 3 inch heels with the dress and it was still long enough to barely glide on the floor.  I highly recommend this dress to anyone who wants to look fun and elegant at the same time.

I rented this dress for a black-tie NYE's celebration and loved it!  Although mid-thigh length in the front (not quite as "mini" in front on me as model), the length in the back is *very* long (model is obviously VERY tall)... so with my 5'3" ht, I had to rock a 4.5+inch platform heel in an attempt to lift the back edge off the ground.  And even then, as you can see in the photos I didn't quite accomplish that lift very well.   Makes dancing/stepping backwards a little challenging (be aware).... you can't pull up the back too much because of the short front, but the look is edgy & amazing!  I almost wish there was a low bustle option for the back, which definitely would have helped.  (Attention designers!!)  :)   It is a tulle overlay and open in front, so length can't be folded under or otherwise rigged with tape.  The color of the dress is a gorgeous deep navy blue - (not black).  I wore black/silver mirror-edged peep toe platform heels - which you can't see in the photos, but the black did work.  The sequin design (silver/deep blue/black) on the front of the dress really pops in person AND in photos.  And the dress was quite comfortable to wear.   If you are looking for a unique dress for a formal event and want a little edge to that look, you will feel like a star in this one!  

The fit was perfect and very flattering to my curves. I love the length in the back, but make sure you have a nice size heel to avoid any dragging or stepping on it. Thankfully, I was fine but I read a few reviews where tape was needed. I love the overall sexy, yet classy appeal of this dress. I felt covered, still it showed off my figure and the length being short and long offered the best of both worlds. The dress gave great support to my bust with or without a strapless (though I wore one anyway). I would definitely order this again. L O V E D it!

I originally rented another dress for NYE but found out that the UPS delivery date had been scheduled for January 2nd.  I immediately sent an email to RTR & they overnighted me this dress.  I'm short and even with the 4.5 inch heels that I wore I found that I still had to hold one side of the dress up to prevent it from dragging on the floor.  I also used a little fashion tape to help hold the top up, but that was more for security than necessity.  

This was my first rental & a "trial" at that since my husband wasn't totally sold on the RTR idea.  However, he was extremely happy with the dress so I guess this is the first of many rentals.

impossible to zip on your own but totally worth it :) 

I didn't end up wearing this dress, I was told by friends and my boyfriend that it was a "little too much" for the wedding we were attending.  So the only wear it got was me going outside and taking a photo with it on. :\

I rented this dress for a ball, and got plenty of compliments at the occasion! It is very elegant (obviously from the back), but it also shows some liveliness because of its dress-like feature in the front. I highly recommend this dress (and a pair of nude-color heels)!

I felt like a princess as soon as I put this dress on! I got compliments all night. Random people at the restaurant would come up to me and tell me it was their favorite dress of the night. It was definitely unique, and I knew that no one else was wearing it, which I loved. Overall, great fit. It zipped up and held me in but didn't kill me. I got it in a 0 and it was true to size. I was worried the length wouldn't be right but it was perfect. A nice bonus was that RTR sent me a jumbo sample of EOS Shaving Cream and I used it that day! It was just so perfect. It felt like I had borrowed a dress from a friend. I was very sad to send it back but can't wait to order another one soon!

I am on the shorter side as well and am concerned about the length of the back of the dress. How tall were your heels and did the dress still drag on the floor then? 

I rented this dress for my boyfriend's prom and it was the best decision I've ever made! I was worried about the length of the dress but I wore pair of three inch heels and worked out great.  The dress fits me like a glove and everyone was telling how they liked the dress and I heard whispers as well "omgosh I love her dress". 

The dress will show your strapless bra just a little, it can be easily fix with the double sided tape they provide you. For those of you who are concern with the color, it's navy blue. 

Is the front too short to sit down? The front hem looks really short... I'm 5'8" with long legs and wondering if I should go with a different style of dress

Looks awesome! I am 5'7", 135 pounds and D cup-would you recommend the size 8 or bigger? I usually wear a 4 or 6 pant...

Hi! You should be fine in a size 8 or even a size 6, I do not think you need to go larger than a size 8!

I wore this to a Beaux Arts Ball that was 1920's in Paris themed.  I didn't want to be completely in the role, so I found this a refreshing, sexy take on the time period!

I'm renting this dress for a fundraiser at the end of the month. I'm concerned about what type of bra to wear. We are just about the same size.  What type of bra did you wear? 

This dress was awesome.  Not only did it fit true to size, but the sparkles on the dress were just the right amount.  The train made the dress elegant, while the front was the perfect length for dancing on the floor.  SO many people complimented me on the awesome concept of the dress.

Hi! Since you are on the shorter side like me, I was wondering if the length was too long on you? 

Hi! I'm concerned that the bust of the dress may not fit me. I wear a 36D and am a size 4.  Did it work for you.

Hi Caitlin, no the length was perfect! The dress just touched the ground with my heels on (I think they were about 4 inches). I didn't have any problems with the length.

Hi Lia! The bust of this dress will be perfectly fine for you, I would not worry!

I love how I could rent an extra size for free just in case! I loved the color and the cutout to show some leg in the front! My first of many rentals!

Thanks! I tried my best so y'all won't be left with any unwelcomed surprises :)

I like that you describe the dress one small detail at a time

Your descriptions are so detailed, I love it! :) And you really do look amazing in the dress! 

When the dresses (size 2 and 4) arrived, the 4 still had some fashion tape left on it from the last user.  Not the most terrible thing, but not the best, either.  I went to a black tie function for a fraternity in this dress. I got major compliments from any brother who saw me wearing it--and all my sorority sisters fell in love with it.  With the right statement jewelry and shoes, this is one sexy, sexy dress worth renting.  My best friend loved it so much she wanted to put it on before going to the grocery store (didn't happen).  I got the size 2 and it was a little snug.  If I wanted to I could have easily worn the 4 because there was a bit more room, but there was hardly a difference in the way they looked on me... So I took the smaller size (what girl wouldn't?).  I have a shorter torso and longer legs, so my long legs worked in my favor.  I'm 5'5 and wore 6inch heels.  The fit specialist suggested for me to not wear the 6" heels because the dress would look too short--but the tulle is around an inch longer than the rest of the dress, so it worked out perfectly.  I used a plan black clutch because some of the sequins on the dress are black.  (The sequins are in groups of silver, pewter, navy blue, and black.  They sometimes get caught onto each other when handling the dress, so be careful.)  The tulle that falls over the shoulder is more dramatic and full than what you see in the picture, so the dress is a bit more one-shoulder-covering than you'd expect--and it makes the dress look even better, actually.  Because of the low cut in the back, i had to pull my bra down, but it would have been better (and smarter) for me to just not even wear one (I'm a 32A).  Because I couldn't exactly fill out the bust of the dress, the cinched waste left the tulle/sequin overlay a bit crinkled where the boning ended, but it didn't seem all that noticeable.  By the end of the night, I was sad to take the dress off and wished I had gotten more pictures in it.  So, if you get this dress, TAKE PICTURES. You're gonna want 'em and you're gonna love 'em.

I agree, you look awesome! Is that a typo on your age???

Just now seeing these gracious compliments.  THANK YOU!!!
Not a typo.  I'm 40 now.  :-)

I've seen many pictures here with all these dresses. I feel the need to comment on yours. WOW! You totally worked it, girl!

The dress runs a little large.  I wore the 0, but I typically wear a 2.  Always call the fit specialists.  She nailed my size on the head, even though I doubted her.  The size 2 back-up swam on my hips.
