Love this dress! I wear a medium, but this was a tad too big. Would have loved the fit even more in a small. Received a lot of compliments on this at work. 

You could easily dress this down or up. Love the quality! Will keep you warm. Runs a scoach big. 

Pros - Sweater dress kept me warm on a chilly night 

Cons - despite ordering down to an XS based on other reviews, the overall for was not very flattering. 

I wore this dress for an outdoor work cocktail hour and was looking for something a bit on the conservative side but still age appropriate / not frumpy. Loved the color but it was still about a size too big. 

I sized down to an XS, and the dress still wasn't as tight as I would have liked- it's very heavy fabric and stretched a little through the day. The color and shimmer are very pretty, and I got a lot of compliments. But it was a bit itchy from the shiny thread and the elastic at the sleeves. The fit as just a little off, which made me like the dress less. 

Elegant cut, heavy fabric, beautiful copper color. Wouldve been perfect if the xs was a true xs. I was swimming in it but i got a ton of compliments on it anyways. I felt like a beautiful beetle queen.

Wore this dress to my office holiday party so the sparkles were perfect. I had to wear a belt with it because the waist area was very big. 

Although simple, the details of this dress are so wonderful. Bell sleeves, pleated bottom, and gold threading throughout...I mean...does it need anything else?! The only critique I have is that it was a big large in the midsection making me look wider in the waist than I or anyone for that matter would want. If you buy it, you may wan to consider adding a skinny belt. I  totally recommend this dress.

I was expecting size XS to hug me a little bit more in the waist but the dress still looked beautiful 

Rented this for work/special occasion dinner. It feels very luxe - it has a nice heaviness to it. I'm normally an 8/10, pear shaped - the medium was good. I could've maybe fit in a small but I liked the looser fit for this style. Would definitely recommend this dress! 

Loved the dress!!! Great for fall.  Had to wear a belt with it because the waist was big on me.  Great length too!

RUNS LARGE comfortable, not itchy. Would be good for the holidays. 

Slightly itchy but cuteness and uniqueness overcome that. Beautiful color and sparkle.

Wore this dress anyway but it seriously looks like I'm expecting a child which I'm not... overall color was good. The material was slightly itchy but not awful; great length for tall people! 

Easy and cute! Fabric was comfortable and heavy, which I love. Fit was spot on!

Loved the sparkles and metallic look to this rose gold dress! It's made out of a high quality knit, it's a fairly heavy dress which is nice for fall/winter. Being 5'10", I also appreciated the length of this dress hit just above my knees. Only complaint was that it runs so big! A small looked fine on my upper body, but it was baggy around my waistline. Still wore it out for a friend's birthday, but not sure if I'd wear again. 

Very cute style. Good, heavy, knit material. I never would've thought of myself as a small, but apparently in this dress (according to how long it is and it's fit around the waist) I am a small. Definitely size down. 

The color and sheen were a beautiful light copper and the knit material made it super comfortable. The sleeves and armhole were slightly larger and longer than I'd like but on anyone non-petite, I'd expect it to fit great. Would definitely rent again!

Fits a large. Even with my very pregnant belly there was room, and definitely large in my arms. The sparkly fabric was great for the holidays. 

Heavy fabric (so, good for a party but not someplace hot and crowded like a bar). Sparkle isn't overdone, and the salmon color is different. As others noted, it was big on the top and waist, so I had to play around with the styling to make it work - this belt helped it from looking dumpy (it was a more casual belt since I was wearing the dress to work and then to a holiday event after; I suppose a thin metallic belt and dressier shoes would have worked too). I did get loads of compliments and felt like, once it all came together, it looked cool and cute and different. 

Runs large. I usually wear a large in rtr items. This medium was still very roomy. Fun color and really
Different. I loved wearing it. 

This dress is so fun and a cute twist on boring work attire. It's really heavy though and definitely runs large.

I thought this would be a super fitted dress so I ordered a large instead of a medium, but it was actually very true to size. To adjust, I belted it to bring in the waist. The color and material are beautiful and I received tons of compliments while wearing the dress. 

I got tons of compliments. Perfect intro to fall dress. 

The material is a heavy knit in copper color with gold sparkles. Very flattering color. Great dress for cold weather months.  The dress runs large. I am usually a size 10 in RTR dresses (5'8", 155 lbs, 36C) and this dress in size Medium fit well, but was still large at the waist (not the most flattering fit).  I would say that the size Medium in this dress is equivalent to size 10-12. 

My daughter rented this for a dance that she had. She is a size 4/6 and fit the XS (we ordered the S as well and she said it was too big) It is a heavier material which is nice as it turned out to be a chilly day. We liked the sparkle on the fabric as well! 

Such a unique dress that can be dressed up or down! Love!

It was way too big on me and would have looked much better if it was fitted around the middle.  I also didn't love where the pattern on the front hit my chest. I have a long-ish torso so I kept wanting the pull the front of the dress down so that the bottom of the pattern hit just below my bust.

Color is dark pink, fabric is heavy with sparkles. Very unique. I wish it could be shorter!

Went to the races/thoroughbred club, so i needed to look a bit more conservative than i usually prefer (lol) and this dress was amazing. It draped on my figure just perfectly, it wasnt tight at all which was in my opinion better than it being skin tight. The pleats were darling, and even though i was fully covered, i still felt sexy af. 

This sparkle dress is divine BUT

Runs really big wish it was more fitted. It was large all around in body chest etc
I still wore it bc i loved it

Wish i had a belt to cinch in the waist a bit

The shimmer is so beautiful and the sleeves are intricate and stylish

Was called "royalty" in this dress haha

The fabric is heavy good for cooler temps 
Feels high end not cheap



This dress was very pretty and sparkly and had some nice details but it was very heavy. I would recommend sizing down one size for it to fit good and it is a winter weight dress. I just wear it to work and I didn't feel that it was too fancy however this would be a very good holiday party dress.

This dress is true to fit. I wore it for work. It's very comfortable, dressy, with a classic cut and has a fun spin!
The fabric is heavy, but not hot. The color is in the neutral pallets,, but not boring. Ipaired it with Blue Floral Eartha iconic bag by Zac Zac Posen.
I'll definitely rent this dress again.

I wore this for date night at Carnegie Hall on a cold winter night. So comfortable.  Color is unique and exactly why  I do unlimited RTR.  I would not buy this dress as I'd be afraid to only wear once.  It has a pretty silver thread sparkle and accessorizes great with gold.  I wore black suede boots and could have worn the M for sure.  I felt classy and sassy in this. Definately recommend. 

Fabric was slightly itchy and i think the XS woule be a better fit...but a lovely dress!  I highly recommend, lots of compliments.

How fun is this dress! I wore this for date night and didn't want to send it back! The micro glitter sparkles much more in person. I recommend sizing down because it runs large. RTR recommended a medium for me, but I selected a small instead and it fit perfectly. 

Wore this for work - with black tights and booties. So classy & comfortable. LOVE this copper color too :)

Very comfortable fit. Subtle shimmer makes this dress festive but not over the top.

This dress is amazing! Its been on my "next" list since it made new arrivals. Absolutely gorgeous, fits a little larger than size, fabric has a subtle sparkle. Truly fabulous!!! 

Sparkle was festive but cut made it not overly fancy. Loved it!

Pros: Incredible quality. Luxe fabric, drape, and details. The color was beautiful for fall. I wore this dress once with booties and once with flats and it worked well both ways. No wrinkles!
Cons: Lots of stretch and it runs large. I should have ordered the Medium.
