All the compliments took me aback! I didn't realize how well the dress fit me!
Size worn: 18WL
Overall fit: True to Size

The fit was great. The length was a tad too long, but it was the best part because I could wear flats!

Rocked the night in this dress!
Size worn: 18WR
Overall fit: Small

I had to go a size up -- thank heavens for great costumer service! I called the day before my event and they were able to get another dress to me in time. The dress fits like a glove and shows all your curves. I had many compliments during the night.

The gold tone lace over the black underlay was so pretty. One of a kind!!!
Size worn: 20WR
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Formal Affair
WOW...it's very pretty and I received multiple compliments, but the "V" in the front and back are VERY low, my bra showed both front and back. I wore SPANX with it to keep my lady lumps nice and tight because it's a straight dress no hiding anything. A great dress to wear with a chunky statement necklace and a sassy black heel.
I wear an 18 at the LB and RTR runs just one size up. I'd also suggest going up in length if you are around my height, the regular was short on me with a three inch heel.
I added a black wrap to keep my arms warm and it was comfortable and kept up with me all night long...

There's no stretch at all in the lining, which was an issue only when zipping up at the top. The neckline is low, but not obscenely, though you will need a plunging undergarment. I wore this with statement earrings and a side updo, so I didn't wear the necklace i'd rented.
When I first took it out of the bag, I was kind of underwhelmed because I thought the gold lace would be flashier. But when I got it on and stood under the light, it was gorgeous and just the right amount of flash.
I don't know if the regular length they sent me had been hemmed by a previous wearer as super short, but at 5'6", I needed to wear the Long version absolutely and that was the "just right" length.

Beautiful dress, runs really small
Size worn: 22WR
Overall fit: Small
Rented for: Formal Affair
Rented this for a 20s Gatsby event, but couldn't wear it. I read the reviews and ordered a size up from my usual, but it was still way too tight around the hips and belly area to be flattering. It's also very low cut. Would be better for a woman who is not too busty and hippy. Order at least one size up, maybe two if you are hippy. There is NO stretch in this one. Bummed that it wasn't flattering on me as it is a lovely dress.

Dress was so short. Because a 22W doesn't come in a long length, I had no choice. Would be ok with short heels, but I'm 5'8" and I'd say the dress seemed almost ankle length - barefoot.

The dress made me feel beautiful.
Size worn: 16L
Overall fit: Large
Rented for: Formal Affair
From the waist down the fit was fine after I got a Spanx. The traps were too big in both sizes so I had to wear a cover. I made it work. The length was fine.

Total Failure
Size worn: 22WR
Overall fit: Small
Rented for: Formal Affair
This dress runs slightly small. I am typically between an 18/20/22, and the 22 "fit". Unfortunately, the straps were much too long making this nearly a plunge neckline. And the "regular" was a good 6"-9" too short. There isn't a Tall option in sizes above 18. I should say that I am only 5'7". I have never worn a TALL anything. The fabric is gorgeous, I would have loved it if this gown fit. If you are 5'2" plus size woman, this dress is waiting for you.

Very low cut...
Size worn: None
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Formal Affair
This dress was sent to me by RTR because my original chosen dress was damaged beyond repair. The stomach area on this dress was flattering, but the dress was very low cut. I tried it on while wearing my bra and you could practically see the entire bra. I don't think any bra I own would have been low cut enough to wear with this dress.
