Rented this as a backup for another dress. Didn't end up wearing but would definitely rent again for another event!

Not enough great words to share about this one. It fit absolutely perfectly. It was so different from the norm, the fabric is spectacular! I'd buy it if I could! 

Fit was true to size and flattering. Comfortable for a night of dancing!

Wore this dress to an awards gala, and loved how unique it was! The open back detail was very fun too! I could move easily, and didn't have to wear a bra! Would definitely rent again. 

Wore this for my sister's wedding at the Ritz and couldn't have asked for a better fit. Very flattering for smaller waist and bigger bottom and loved that it comes in long length!

Would have been 5 stars--I got a lot of compliments. But the dress is a little worn with the elastic stretched out a bit. Might be time to retire it.

It fit perfectly! The dress stood out for a black tie wedding!

This dress fit perfectly. I usually wear a size 4 but have lost a bunch of weight recently so may actually be a 2. The length was perfect with 3 inch heels. The dress is excellent quality and so beautiful. I would order it again in a heartbeat

This dress exceeded my expectations.  I am happy that I ordered the petite because even in 3 inch heels it just touched the floor. Otherwise the fit was perfect. I had so many compliments on this dress and it was super comfortable to wear. 

This dress was beautiful! I had 3.5 inch heels on and it was a little long but otherwise fit really well. I loved that it stood out with its beautiful pattern. There is a black strap in the back that I liked, but someone asked me if it was a bra, so I might have opted not to use the strap if I wore it again. 

Rented this dress for a black and white ball.  People commented all night that it was the best dress in the room.  Very fun pattern, but elegant design.  It was super comfortable and my heals lifted it to the perfect height for dancing!

The style and fit of this dress was absolutely stunning. I received many compliments throughout the evening. The closure across the back seemed visibly worn, but worked fine. I am only 5 feet tall, but was hoping to be able to pull off the petite length with 4 inch heels...it was still a bit too long though. 

I rented this for a wedding. I received so many compliments on it. It was the perfect length and the back is open. It's so pretty. 

Great fit; true to size and length.  If you are looking for a stunning, modern dress - this is the one!

I finally found a dress that fit on top and bottom, which is why I marked it as running a little small. I'm usually a four, but the six was comfortable. It runs short (I'm 5' 5" and wore three-inch heels). The dress is very lightweight, but I wasn't crazy about the mesh overlay fabric. It just doesn't look expensive. Thankfully, black and white usually looks good regardless. Very flattering. Nice for someone who has a curvy figure. 

I absolutely loved this dress. I am between sizes right now and I should have rented a 4, instead of a 6. Although I wore the dress, loved it, and received many compliments, this was an extremely worn dress. Looked old. The cool backing (which I was excited about) was so very stretched out,  it hung down my back. Since the back was so stretched, I had to have a friend rig it and use 5 safety pins to get it to stay and look halfway decent. I loved the dress, but this one has been worn so much it needs to be retired or altered.  I was a little disappointed in how the dress looked when I received it. 

LOVED this dress! I was a little skeptical about renting since it was my first time but I am SO glad I did! I opted for a 2R (which I normally wear) and it fit like a GLOVE. RTR didn't have the size larger as a backup so I brought another dress just in case this one didn't fit, but I didn't need that one - woohoooo!!! I was receiving complements all night! 

Over all the dress arrived earlier in the day than I expected which was nice, and after opening the package, the dress was in perfect condition. The geometric pattern was a perfect fit for our NYE house party - beautiful yet not too flashy! The open back and black strap was a great great touch too. I have an athletic build so this dress was a great way to show off my arms too! The return was easy too. I'd definitely rent from RTR again!!

This dress was absolutely gorgeous! I received so many compliments and it was so unique and comfortable. It runs true to size and the length worked well even at 5'2" (I wore 3 inch heels and had no problems). Great dress and I highly recommend!

This dress is simply a show stopper! I wore this to an Art Deco event and it was perfect! So many compliments throughout the night. I was very nervous due to the reviews saying it was short in length, but I thought it was perfect. I'm 5'5" and wore 3.5" heels and it still touched the ground. Fit perfectly true to size and was very comfortable. Don't hesitate to rent this dress!

I felt like a princess in this dress. It fit like a glove so I recommend sizing up for your backup. It made me sit and stand up straight all night but I just felt like $1m! 

I wore the 6L with 2in heels and it was a bit short even though I'm 5'7". 

Highly recommend. 

I ordered the 0R and the 2L wore the 2L because the R length was too short to wear with heels (I'm 5'6"). I also found that the 0 was kind of tight in the chest with the push-up bra I was wearing, but if it had been longer I could have made it work. 

The dress fit perfectly and was very comfortable. I got a ton of compliments all night. Loved the dress! 

I wore this to a black tie wedding and I loved it! I felt like a queen. Received compliments all night. Definitely recommend!

Fit was very true to size minus the tightness at my neck area. The dress was everything I wanted it to be and definitely stood out at a black tie affair. 

This stood and in the crowd and I got tons of compliments. Only complaint was the band around the waist was so tight

There is no give to the dress, so make sure it fits well before you decide to wear it.

Absolutely LOVED this dress! Wish I could keep it! Perfect fit, perfect length, perfect everything. I'm on the shorter size so the regular could be short for taller women. Went with the smaller size so that it was tight enough not to have to wear a bra, as the back strap was not quite thick enough to cover a bra. Can't say enough about it! 

I really needed a size 10 but they were out. Was slightly large on top so strap in back was floppy.  Perfect dress with a black strapless bra or you could go without especially if back strap fits the way it's suppose to. Beautiful detail and different then the traditional black dresses you always see people wear. Length is perfect for shorter women. I am 5ft 4 and was wearing flats.  

The dress fit perfectly! I wore three inch heels and it was the perfect length! I received so many compliments on how good it looked and they wanted to know where they could get it! Absolutely stunning for this black tie wedding!

Dress ran true to size. I am 5'1" 125 lbs and 32D 6P fit perfectly. Wore backless bra and 3" heels. Length was great which is unusual for a shorty like me. Would absolutely wear it again! 

I rented this dress for a formal wedding. After reading reviews of women around my height (5'1), I decided on renting a 2R and 4P. I initially tried to rent a 4R because all the reviewers said it didn't run in petite sizes and even the dress details did not indicate petite sizes. Boy am I glad there was no 4R available. I ordered a 4P and it fit perfectly! Not only that but I didn't need platform 4inch heels either (yay!). I was able to wear 3inch heels and it was fine. The top was structured enough to not have wear a bra since the dress is more or less backless. I loved how the dress looked on and how flattering on the body it was. I received so many compliments of the dress from other guests and people who saw pictures on FB. Also, the material was very different and at first I was thrown by the fabric, but the dress didn't come wrinkled because of the type of fabric and I didn't have to iron or steam it...a big plus for me! This was the first dress I rented and both sizes came in a beautiful, sturdy garnet bag and returning it was so simple. Great experience overall!! I maybe renting another dress for another wedding in a month!

Wore this to an art galley gala event.  Conservative except for the open back (it's a good compromise).  Fits comfortably - there is some boning but it wasn't restrictive at all.  I am 5'9" and the only size available was regular; I definitely could have used a long.  I wore black kitten heels and just kind of hoped no one looked down too far.  The dresses had seen some wear and will soon need to be retired.  I felt like the wear was OK for the event I attended but would have been too much for a more special occasion.  Fun dress!

This is such a great dress!  It is really comfortable and easy to wear.  From the waist down it sort of skims over the body, which worked well for my pear shape.  I wore a backless, stick on push up bra just to give me some shape (A cup).  The only thing to be aware of is the length.  I am 5'6" and ordered the 4L and 6L.  The 4L fit a bit better, but I went with the 6L because of the slightly longer length.  It was just long enough with my 3 inch heels.

This dress fit perfectly and was incredibly flattering. I danced all night at a wedding and it was comfortable and totally easy to move around in. As a shorter person, I'm always nervous to wear long dresses, but the petite was the absolute perfect length with 3.5-inch heels. Make sure you have a sewing kit handy, as a couple of the hooks in the back arrived looking very precariously attached. 

This was my original pick for my gala event, but I was talked into a different dress. I chose this one as my back up and I'm so glad I did.  The original one didn't fit at all, but this one fit PERFECTLY!  I LOVE THIS DRESS!  I'm  46 y/o, 5'1", 114 lbs, and slender with 34D/DD boobs.  It's sometimes hard to find a dress that fits.  I wore 4" heels and the dress skimmed the floor perfectly.  The back of the dress is open with a black fabric strap, which initially gave me some trouble.  My black strapless bra strap was wider than the fabric and you could see it very clearly.  Slight panic set in.  I opted to try the backless sticky bra thing and voila!  Perfect!  I seriously thought about just tucking the black fabric stips in and going totally backless (a first for this big boobed girl) but decided that by fastening the strip, it pulled it together better and gave the girls a little more support.  Didn't want any wardrobe malfunctions!  This was for a Great Gatsby themed charity event, and the dress stood out among regular everyday dresses.  It was perfect.  I didn't want to take it off!  I'd definitely rent it again!

The dress fit true to size and was the perfect length (I'm 5' 4" and wore 2.5 inch heels). Great material, I wore a strapless bra under for extra support, everything fit perfectly.  

I ordered his dress in a 4R with a 6R as a backup and the day before it shipped I got an email that the 4R was no longer available. Another dress was set in its place, but it was too dressy for the wedding I was attending. I went ahead and wore the 6R although it was a little big in the back and arm area. The 4R would have fit perfectly, but  despite the size issue the dress was a big hit. I received so many compliments on the design and open back!

I am always a little nervous with gowns since I am petite and narrow and many have a tendency to overwhelm my small frame. This dress was stunning - I received so many compliments on it at the gala I wore it to and the pattern is so unique. The open back detail is also great, although I wish there had been a set off additional hooks attached to make the cross-strap tighter (it became unhooked a few times). I ordered the petite as a backup, but with 4 inch heels, it was a little shorter than I liked.  

It fit beautifully, just as described. I wore a strapless bra under and it worked well, although hubby occasionally fixed me. The button closure at the neck looked very delicate, like it was close to breaking. But looked and felt great. The fabric detail up close was beautiful. Very happy with it.
