I liked how fitted the waist was and even though it’s deep cut, there’s kind of a structure in the bust that holds your chest. I’m 5’2” probably 132, 34D, and I felt like it fit very well! 

I had to make this work cause it’s the only thing I had while traveling for a wedding. Pretty dress BUT I am not as endowed on top so I needed to use alll the tape to keep it from fully exposing but then it laid funny. Tried to size smaller but couldn’t zip it up past my back.  Wouldn’t recommend 

Loved the slit, loved how it fit overall. The fabric doesn’t have a lot of give/stretch but it did fit me really well. 

I wore this to an award gala and received so many compliments! It was the perfect combo of classy and sexy. Could not recommend it enough 

I’m 5’2 / 110lbs and wore a XS petite. I was concern about dress being too long but it was just right. 

Beautiful dress with a handful of minor issues looking at it up close - a few snags in the fabric, loose threads, and the boning of the bust had a tendency to want to point straight out instead of hugging the natural curves. 

From afar- absolutely stunning dress. 

This dress was perfect! I liked it so much that I ordered the same dress in burgundy. It’s low cut, so if you have boobs, they will be somewhat out. The length was also good for short girls. 

Wore it to a wedding and received compliments all night long. Loved the slit and the open cleavage but just like other reviews mention, double sided tape is a MUST. So glad I rented this!

This looked like it would have been a stunner for my frame but have wide ribcage and would not zip in back. I found it ran small. I am a 2-4 which was listed as XS in sizing info. Regular was also too short. I'm guessing SL would be perfect. I may try and order in future for another event now that I know sizing!

I felt so sexy in this dress. I wore it to a gala for my husbands work. I forgot the double sided tape but I was just super conscious of the deep cut and did fine. I also had nipple covers on so it kind of was a second layer of protection. The silicone also clung to the dress in a way to make sure it didn't slide over and give me a wardrobe malfunction. Great cocktail and dinner dress. It probably would have been hard to keep everything in place if I was dancing with out tape. The dress is LOOOONG. At 5'7 I had to wear platform shoes and it just hit the ground. 

Need a little boob tape for gaping but otherwise, super easy to wear. I was surprised! Great length too. 

Absolutely fantastic dress! While yes, it definitely has the sexy factor it was very elegant. Ultimately I decided it was a bit more formal than I needed but I’d definitely want to wear this at another time. The fit was fantastic and was really comfortable. Next time for sure! 

It was perfect with the any exception of having to size up after receiving it. Once I had the right size, the fit was perfect! I will definitely rent this one again. Tons of compliments and very comfortable to wear and dance in. 

My MIL said I looked like Morticia Addams (lol). I absolutely loved this dress: classy and sexy. 

I had to wear low heels because the regular was too short (I’m 5’8”) but otherwise this dress was incredible. I felt amazing all night! The hips were a tad tight, but all in all a great dress! 

Lots of compliments. I felt comfortable all night. The stays in the neckline allowed for cleavage but kept the bodice in place. 

Wore this for black tie wedding, I probably could have gone down a size for a more comfortable fit in the chest but was able to make it work with boob and fabric tape. 

this fit me perfectly...  would totally buy it!  

I wore this for a wedding. It was pretty comfortable and easy to move in. I received quite a few compliments on the dress. Normally I’m between a 6 & 8. The medium fit well. The chest was just a tiny bit loose, but it was mostly managed with the dress tape I used. I would rent this dress again.

Wear all the boob tape you can (esp for a wedding when you are seated).   Easy to move around in/ dance in.   The cut isn’t for the faint of heart (old ladies were gawking and I’m  only a B cup).  But it was an easy comfortable dress.  Would rent again. 

I ended up using a fair amount of fabric tape to keep from flashing people. Besides that, medium fit well, small was small. 

Simple, elegant, sexy. Beautiful dress! I wore bombas to keep the girls in place. 

The dress was very pretty, but tighter in the hips and looser at the top than I hoped. I ended up wearing the replacement that RTR sent out, but this was a close second choice

Loved this for my New Year’s party. It fit like a glove

Runs smaller. There was only an XS available to rent so I took it thinking It’s not a huge jump. In my options based on my size it came out as a 2/4. Turns this XS was more like a 0. It was painted on particularly the bust area 

I really loved this dress. The material has weight and structure to it to make it look elevated. There is zero stretch so that took some adjusting. I did wear nip covers and used double sided tape to keep the front panels in place. I like the top design and still felt comfortable with what was exposed. Would definitely wear it again! 

First, the dress is classic and stunning. NO stretch. I was able to get the medium on but it was too tight, so I sized up to the large, which left my boobs needing some support. I am a 36C and the Large was too big up top. I used a ton of boob tape and fashion tape to keep this in place. Otherwise, amazing dress and got tons of compliments. It holds you in where needed and yes, there is no stretch, but the high slit was the saving grace to my hips, thighs, and butt. I have a 35" waist and 46" hips around my bottom and thighs. I was able to sit down and dance all night. 

Beautiful flowy dress.  Would definitely get again.  Got dress for Egyptian Egyptian-themed anniversary party. 

This dress fit amazing! It can get a little snug in the rib cage when sitting, but other than that it was very comfortable. If you’re smaller-chested, have dress tape on hand to keep the top in place!

This dress is stunning and my husband has requested I buy it. 

Wore a size M. Loved how it looked, but I felt the upper part didn’t fit correctly. Lower part was perfect. 

I wanted this dress to work so badly, but unfortunately the upper body didn't fit and I didn't end up wearing this.  I am a 34B, usually a size 4, and tried on the medium.  The lower part of the dress fit well, but the torso was just too long (I have a fairly short torso).  The straps were a little too long, and the boobs were just not going to work, even with tape.  They were too pointy and the fabric wouldn't lay flat, even after I steamed it. 

This dress was beautiful. I did have to go a size up and the cleavage area can be a bit tricky but it was beautiful!

This dress fit super well and was very flattering. The only thing I will say is I did have to add extra padding to the *girls*. If you’re on the bustier side you’ll be just fine! 

I ended up wearing this to a formal wedding because it was the only option that looked half way decent. I have curvy butt/hips and the dress kept twisting around my waist all night. I also had to use a great deal of fashion tape to hold the top in place but I don’t have large breasts to fill it out. I would not rent again. The color was perfect though. 

This dress got a million compliments and had me feeling great from wedding ceremony to the last dance. The neckline is stunning and the slit isn’t too high. The zipper did stick so I needed help getting in and out but otherwise it was a gorgeous, classy look that required no tugging or adjusting. (I hate a fussy dress!)
