This dress is true to size and fits snug.  The boning helps give good support but it is very breathable.  I was able to dance all evening and still look great walking out of my event.  

I rented this dress earlier this year in a 6 and it was waaay too big. I re-rented on a size 2 for a party and was not disappointed. The fabric is beautifully intricate and photographs amazingly. Instead of wearing it knee=length, I used fashion tape to make it a mini-dress for a night out on the town! I'll definitely be renting this dress again!!!

For starters, the dress is dazzling! The picture of the dress on the model doesn't do it justice. When you see it in person, you notice the very fine details like the copper and light blue lace sewn into the design. It looks extrememely expensive. In addition and as a result of this design, the dress looks better in flash photography. I found that without the flash, it just looked a tad more dull and navy. The one issue I had with the dress was the inconvenient sizing options. The only options were a 2,6, & 10, making it impossible to "comfortably" size up or down. I ended up getting the 6 and the 2. The 6 was huge, especially around the hips and the bust was way too large. For the 2, the bust was perfect, but the hips were extremely tight. The size 4 would have been perfect if available. Although, after some intense squeezing, I ended up wearing the 2. It almost acted like its own version of Spanx. Other than the sizing issue, my overall experience was fantastic! You will really stand out in this red carpet-worthy dress.

This dress was so beautiful! The fit was really flattering, and I could not have been happier with it! Also, the color is stunning in person and great for my fair skin! I would definitely rent this again!

Was sad to send this one back!  The fit was perfect, and the fabric was stunning.  I paired with some fun jewelry and a skinny belt as an accent.

I normally wear a 2 so, taking the other reviewers' advice, I got both the 2 and 0 and thank goodness I did size down. (*RTR NOTE: You should definitely update your recommendation to size down not up for your recommended fit). I was swimming in the 2 - even with some fashion tape and a strapless bra, the top wouldn't stay up (and filling out dresses has never been a problem for me before ha!). After a little muscle work, I got into the 0 and it was BEAUTIFUL. Would love to own this dress!

it fits SO well. I wear a size 2, but I got a zero just to see, and the zero actually fit a lot better, so I'm glad I did that. it has a simmer to it, which is what makes it look really elegant! I got multiple comments on this dress! I would rent it again! I love how the top of the dress goes to a point. I dont have a lot up top, but this made it look like I did ;) very classy!

was a little long especially for my 5'1" frame. i tucked it in a couple of inches at the waist and hid it and held it in with a belt. the added belt actually really pulled the look together.

The dress that I received looked like it had been worn many, many times.  Threads were coming out and it actually looked like it was sewn at the bottom hem.  If it was not so close to my event, I might have sent it back. That being said, the fit of the dress was good.  I ordered my normal dress size and it was a little big in the top and the mid-section, but nothing that I could not work with.  

I would try RTR again. 

I got this dress for a night at the opera and just absolutely love it. The fabric was beautiful and made me feel amazing all night.  The dress is very flattering for an hourglass kind of gal, but you definitely need something up top.  The dress is large in the bust area. Luckily, I could fill it out, but I wouldn't recommend to someone smaller than a C or D cup.  Absolutely beautiful dress,  Wish I had taken a pic to post.

How did you feel about the length of the dress? I'm 5' too and I know it's already a longer dress. 

I ordered both a 2 and a 4, but I assumed I'd need the 4 with my fuller hips and thighs. The size 4 was loose all over, especially in the bust. The size 2 fit nicely, but it was not quite as fitted along the bust as I would have liked. I certainly don't consider myself flat-chested, but I prefer when strapless dresses fit like a glove along the bust. It was a lovely dress, though, and the double-stick tape that came with my order ensured the top stayed in place.
