Fit me perfectly. Got so many compliments

Perfect for garden formal wedding in summer, I’m 5’3 but could still wear it as full length just had to hold up for stairs, very comfortable, strapless grip around entire top part front and back so stayed up well. 

Absolutely LOVED this dress! Wore it to a friend’s wedding as a guest. I was sent a small and medium and the small fit perfectly. For me, it wasn’t too tight overall, just a little tricky when walking upstairs. For reference, I am 5’10”, 140 lbs and was wearing about 2 inch heels. I was a little concerned about length but it actually landed at a good place that wasn’t awkward. I couldn’t on and on but highly recommend this dress!

Slightly large, should have ordered size down but made it work. Bow in front needs dress tape to stay up

Loved this dress. I got so many compliments. I will say i’m a 32B and the chest was too big for me. But still wearable. Just a little gapping. Such great quality dress tho! 


Definitely one of my fave RTR picks. The colors are gorgeous, just as pictured. Was perfect for a Florida wedding. I’m 5’6, 128lbs, 32D, athletic build, usually size 2. Dress fit perfectly and I never had to adjust anything. I wore a strapless bra and nothing moved all night. Used 2-sided fashion tape to keep the bow from flopping about. Stunning dress. Got lots of compliments.

if you are narrow in the hips, size down so the top fits perfect, or wear shapewear 

One of my fav rentals to date! Perfect for a black tie wedding or gala. I agree with other reviews that it's a bit difficult to sit down, but the discomfort is 110% worth it for all the compliments I got. Colors are beautiful. Rent this dress!!

Absolutely stunning dress!!! It fit perfectly and I received so many compliments!!! 

I got so many compliments! Had this for a formal rehearsal dinner.  Really wanted to buy it! I usually lean towards mediums but this size fit like a glove!

I took a chance on this as it was new and only had 1 review with no picture. I'm SO glad I did! It fit like a glove and was so pretty on. the length was perfect for my short height with 3in heels. The only con was that the bust was a little big so I used fashion tape to pin the front down to avoid the gap. I would rent this again in a heartbeat!

It was a tiny bit big so I could've maybe ordered a L but overall it was a great dress for a Napa black tie wedding! 

This dress fit like a glove! Absolutely loved it & received so many compliments. 

I loved this dress, but picked a different one for a wedding. It was a bit snug, but I could have worn in. If I rent it again I would size up. Fabric is luxurious and looks even better in person with the colors.

I received so many compliments on this dress and I think it looks amazing on especially if you have a tan. My only problem is the bow around the waist. Did make it a little bit tight-I am a true size 10 and it’s zippered perfectly. The bow can be a little floppy, but I used a safety pin to keep it in place.

Slightly too snug to be comfortable, I’m usually a true size S or 6 for event dresses. The next size up was too big. The belt is floppy - pinned with a Bobby pin here. 

Ok first, this dress is simply beautiful in person. Color is even better and it’s simply gorgeous. So many compliments. I do recommend this dress but want to share the following…
- the waist is super tight bc of the bow detail (tbh I wore it for pics and then took it off for a bit of breathing room)
- the bow detail also needs fashion tape to sit nicely on the waist (it comes floppy, so think ahead!)
- it will not be floor length if you’re tall (I’m 5’8” and wore heels and it hit around my ankle)
- it is not a very “sitting friendly” dress lol you kind of have to make it work

Again, overall I’d recommend but just heads up!

Didn't end up wearing this, but such a pretty dress for a black tie event. The bust was too big on the M, but the hips were too small in the S. Wish it would have worked to wear!

The dress was so pretty, but belt was too tight and the top was too big… But loved it! 

I ordered it with other options, ended up going with a different choice but it is a beautiful dress. I'm always between 4/6, I should have sized up for this one. 

I’m usually an XS/S and went with the small so it could fit in the hips. The small size made it roomier in the bust than I prefer but the boning in it made it work! I got complimented all night! 

This dress was stunning on. It was a slightly big in the chest area but it fit beautifully elsewhere. Would definitely rent again. 

Fit great as a girl with a smaller top, small waist, but bigger bottom. 

Pretty but size down!  Been hovering around 8 in dress size lately but even that's been fitting right in some brands lately so I went with the large to be safe.  It was comically large, definitely couldn't wear (luckily this was just me trying it on in advance with an extra lot on my membership).  Also the fabric is pretty though it was also a bit less orange in person.

This was beautiful but the fabric had no stretch, I had to take it off to use the restroom and I couldn't buckle my own shoes! 
Top had a lot of room compared to the rest of the dress

loved this dress and got so many compliments! it was perfect for my friend's black tie wedding and hit around the mid-foot —  for reference I'm 5'7" and wore a 2" heel. only note: this dress runs large and I do not recommend it for anyone who is a size 0 or 2, especially if you have a smaller chest. the XS was very large on me and I had to get very creative with fashion tape in order to achieve a good fit. 

No stretch in material! Tight in the hips and hard to sit down! Bust area was also a little bit

Really pretty gown. Belt is snug if you have larger rib cage like me, but otherwise fit is perfect and TTS. Definitely leans more formal, but could be used for cocktail with the right accessories and shoes. 

I loved the fit and color, but I didn’t wear it, it was too short. I’m 5’5” and would’ve have to wear 3” heals for the length to be correct.

I loved the colors of this dress it was a bit tight in the waist though
