Fit well, true to size. Zipper was a bit worn, but worked for one night.

Worn to a late fall wedding, loved the gold and the slightly open back. The material made the dress feel a little more formal. 

I liked the dress, fit well and flattering

Rented this for a company holiday party -- it was flattering but appropriate. Even though the band was a little tight, still thought it was worth the rental!

The dress was perfect- the size 0 was the one I went with. I typically wear a 2, but the 0 fit better. I received tons of compliments and felt great in the dress!

Fit comfortably, not very figure flattering, but overall a nice dress 

it was a little tight across the hips but with some slight adjusting now and then it was fine. plus i have a larger than average behind so for many this won't be a problem!

This dress is adorable and flattering. The gold detail is subdued enough that wearing it with a black jacket, tights, and pumps made it great for work. Taking off the jacket reveals the adorable back and makes it great for a cocktail party or holiday party. I felt really cute in it. 

I rented this dress for our Annual Benefit at work in downtown Chicago. The decor was a mix of art deco / champagne bubbles themed with golds, purples, and blacks so the detail on this dress fit in so well!

This dress was absolutely perfect! It was very comfortable and form fitting but allowed me to move quick on my feet since i was running around all day. I chose to order a 0 and a 2 and the 2 fit true to size.

My boyfriend LOVED this dress on me and i received so many compliments on it. The price was in my budget and i was honestly sad to see it go.

Got a lot of compliments on this one and felt amazing. But the fabric seemed slightly faded, which is why I marked it down a star. On the plus side, was told by many people to buy this! So if it's reaching the end of its RTR life, I may consider keeping an eye out on the sales section ;)

This dress was perfect for my 30th birthday date with my husband!  It actually arrived a day earlier than expected.  I loved everything about it and would definitely rent it again!

I rented it for a work holiday party and it was just the right look - work approriate and yet fun, with a festive shine. The gold accents are far more understated than the pictures. I listened to the advice of the reviewers and sized up - it was definitely a more comfortable fit. The only thing I didn't love was the way the neckline just wouldn't lie flat. That might have also been because I sized up. 

I️t was a bit snug for my normal size, as most reviews said. The good thing about it being snug is that I️ didn't need to wear a bra, especially since the material is thicker. Overall great dress, classic look, and I️ was still able to dance (major plus). 

Dress definitely ran small. the midsection was very tight. my shorter torso also made the straps loose. the skirt was tight. it was a great dress and looked really cute, but was a little too tight for me to be fully comfortable in it. 

The dress was cute- not great if you have a short waist, the top just flows into the skirt section and gives no shape. Great fabric, not too heavy and perfect length!

Overall comfortable cute dress. Loved the back cut out. However because I'm short, lost the midsection which is supposed to give a little more shape. Top went right into hip so it ended up looking a little boxy. Overall length was actually not bad since it was just at my knees. Would rent again. 5' 135 lbs 34b for twelve.

I wore this for a relatively fancy work reception.  It fit great and was very comfortable. 

Fit perfectly, will definitely rent again!

True to fit.  So many people complimented me on the dress. 

The back opens up and makes the dress unique but is nice because you can still wear a traditional bra with it

Typically size 10, but the top was a bit too large. Backup Size 8 worked great! Loved the black and gold pattern and the just open enough back. Dress was on the short side when sitting down, but i paired it with tights and boots and it looked great. As some people have mentioned, the back can get unclasped, but was easily fixed with a discreet safety pin. Overall, really loved the dress!

Sooo the 6 was too tight (my underarm fat showed and it was tight on the chest making it rude up) but I had to wear it since the 8 was unavailable. That being said, I got several compliments and I felt pretty in it. It's modest and modern at the same time. I'd definitely recommend it for your holiday party needs. 

This fit like a glove. Great for athletic or hourglass figures, it's fitted but not too tight across the butt/hips. The gold wasn't as shiny as expected, which toned it down and made it a little classier. Great for fall/winter events. 

This was a really fun dress for a fall wedding at a vineyard. The fabric is a little stiff and doesn't have any give. Since I have a large chest I had to go up a size. 

I ordered the 10 and 12. The 10 was a little snug on bottom, so I wore the 12 to have more room for dancing. The top was too big though, so it looked a little sloppy. The back is really cute and cut so you can still wear a normal bra. The dress was a great length on me (I'm 5'8") and looked really great in photos. I wouldn't rent this again because it's not super special, but it was fine for the event we attended. 

Dress fit true to size and previous reviewers made me confident to order my usual size without a backup. Perfect "little black dress" with a little flair from the gold brocade. With a toddler at home, and not a lot of room in the budget, I felt great having RTR as an option to look decent for a family wedding without breaking the bank. Great experience renting for he first time, and I definitely will use RTR again!

Retro Glam, try to size for upscale event

I'm curvy, usually wear a 6 but it was a little snug. Definitely could have gone up a size 

I normally wear either a 10 or 12 quite religiously so I ordered those sizes. Neither one fit me. I have put the pic of me in the 12 here because I couldn't even zip it up all the way without serious struggle and it looked so unflattering on me. I had to wear a dress from my own closet for the wedding. I was devastated. I am still giving this dress 4 stars though because it was made of a really nice material and had it fit, I think it would have been totally perfect for the occasion.  I think one thing to note is that the picture on the model makes the gold in the dress look very bright. It was not that bright in real life - I did still like it though. I had also rented a set of gold bangles by Priya Kakkar that were very fun and would have looked good with the dress. Luckily I was able to pair them to add some pizzazz to my own dress. 

I was 7 weeks postpartum for my best friend's wedding and was breastfeeding.  I still had about 10
Pounds to lose and had a little tummy.  The dress was great for my nursing bra and easy to deal with when I had to pump.  One downside:  a little tight through the legs and made dancing a little difficult!  I have an athletic build with muscular legs and booty, so it was good I sized up!  It didn't totally disguise my tummy, so maybe a little looser fitting dress would've been better for that.  I was originally 135lbs and 5'6, size 6.  I am now 145 and wearing size 8.

I loves the rich details of this dress. I felt fabulous and elegant wearing it. My only complaint is that the hook at the back closure did open a few times even when I tried to bend the hook closed tightly. 

I liked this dress. I feel that it ran small, but was I really felt that it fit well. I would rent it again.

Pretty dress, the gold really pops! It felt a bit too matronly for me the fit was a bit strange. I usually wear an 8 but I have big hips and the bottom portion of this dress was very snug, so I ended up wearing the 10. The clip in the top back of the dress came undone quite a few times throughout the night. 

It runs true to size, and I felt incredibly comfortable in it. The only thing is that whenever I hugged someone, the top latch on the back would undo itself so had to check it all night. Besides that, it was fantastic! 

I wore this to a friends wedding and it was a bit dressy for the daytime ceremony but perfect for the reception. I got lots of compliments and questions about my RTR experience (all of which was positive). I wore black pumps and gold jewelry to compliment the look. I had ordered a large gold necklace that was damaged however I felt the dress did not need the extra bling. I had no trouble with the flaps in the back coming undone. It was a bit tight on my thighs and I wore a waist slimmer to keep everything tucked in. I also found the arm holes a bit small however I do have larger (muscular :P) arms so that may not be a problem for others. I ordered a 6 and 8 and wish I had gotten the 10 bc that probably would have fit perfect. In all honesty, no one else thought it was tight and I would definitely get this again!

I loved this dress and wish I could have worn it longer than I did! The gold is much more subtle in person than what appears online, but the cut and quality are superb. I found the size 0 to fit true to size, the zipper was easy to work, and the hook-eye closures stayed closed even after chasing my toddler around the dance floor. The back of the dress is stunning and adds an unexpected element to an otherwise conservative cut. Rent this dress!

I loved this dress, it was a very flattering fit. The bodice was tight (true to size) and the floating top complimented it well. The cape did keep coming unclasped, but I didn't find it terribly annoying.

The dress was beautiful! I usually wear an 8-10 dress size and have a pear-shaped body type and wore a 10. It was a little wide on the top and tight on the bottom so not a great dress for my body type.

Pros were that it was gorgeous, cons were that the back was a little tight and the neck clasp kept coming undone for some reason.
