Just a stunning dress worn to a prom...more compliments than imagined!  It was comfortable, classy and movable for dancing!  

Perfect fit. Right length with heels. I ordered this thinking it was a printed fabric - it's actually two layers - the top being embroidered with the flower pattern. So it's heavy to wear. 

I wore this dress for a gala I was working at, therefore I needed something easy to maneuver in. This dress was so comfortable and I could wear a normal bra with it. The fabric is thicker so it would be great for cooler weather. I'm 5'5" and it was a little long wearing flats, but I still got away with it. Highly recommend, I got lots of compliments!

Received lots of compliments and it was very pretty. Loved the style; length was great with heels. The fit overall was good EXCEPT the ribbon around the bodice is ridiculously tight. By the end of the night I was dying to take the dress off and ended up with a red circle around my rib cage from where it dug in. I'm a pretty solid size 4, bust 34A, and it fit everywhere except around the ribcage. Disappointing for sure.

It’s slightly narrow in the chest but I was nursing so it could have just been me at the time!

Great dress for a formal wedding. It was a breathable fabric, wasn't heavy. There was the sheer fabric over the solid fabric. The sheer fabric was slightly longer, so I would have to hold that up to walk and dance so I wouldn't trip. I wore high heels and still had a problem with length.Also it was a little snug where's the ribbon was. But other then that it fit like a glove. 

This dress was stunning and I received many complements at the black tie wedding I wore it to. I did feel that the dress was a little long, but worked with heels. My one complaint was that it was very tight around my rib cage. The skirt of the 2 "wore me," so I opted for the 0, which was quite snug at the waist the night went on. 

 The dress is made from heavy fabric (not as delicate as I imagined) -- the good news is that it hides any bumps or rolls nicely.  The fabric is not stretchy at all, so it you are in between sizes, choose the larger size. This dress could be worn with a regular bra (that I just pinched together with a clip in the back so the straps didn't show).  Note: I ordered an 8P because 8R was not available -- at 5'6 with 1 inch heels the dress length was just fine (but barely).

Thicker than anticipated. Should have ordered the Long version for heels. Fuller skirt too. 

The dress fit perfectly except for the length.  I'm 5'3" and even with the petite length, I had to wear 6" heels.  I was able to wear a cross-back bra with no issues.  I received many compliments on the dress and it was comfortable for an evening formal event.  

This dress is lovely! I rented a size 2 and size 4. Wore the 2  (the black lining hung a bit longer than the dress but I was able to pin it up). The size 4 must be mislabeled as it was much smaller than the 2 (fit like a size 0). Very comfortable and warm enough for the outside portion of the wedding. Would definitely rent this one again!

I ordered the 4L with 6L as backup as I typically wear a 4 or 6.  I ended up wearing 6L because the 4L was too tight in the ribs.  I am 5'9" and the 6L was the perfect length with 2 1/2 inch heels and just slightly brushed the floor.  It was very flattering and no one else had a dress like it at the formal charity event I wore it to.  I would definitely recommend this dress and rent the runway.  Always a great experience.

I ordered a 4R with a 2R as my backup, and fortunately the 2R fit because oddly enough, the 4R was smaller than the 2R. (?) I included a note when I returned the dresses, so hopefully they'll get that one figured out. Besides that, I loved the dress! My waist measures about 27-28" and the 2 fit fine. I have a "barrel chest" as my dad calls it, so it was snug on the ribs, but not uncomfortably so. I also have a longer torso, so my natural waist was about an inch lower than the waist of the dress. Length was good. I actually didn't have to wear 4" heels, so that was a plus. A 3" heel worked great for my 5'5" height. I wore a racer-back bra so I wouldn't have to worry about the straps showing all night. Dress material is heavier which worked great for a February event. 

I had a last minute gala to go to so, of course, I went to RtR. I would never have chosen this one before, but I am happy it was one of the only options. It was really comfortable, it was glamorous, and the quality of the material was perfect for a winter affair. I wish I could have had the hair and makeup to match how fancy the dress was - but at least I had that. Thanks to RtR for the save! 

I am wearing the 2 here, and I usually wear a 4.  The 4 was a little too big, and the 2 was a little too small, but I wore the 2 anyway.  I got many compliments while wearing this dress.  I loved it!

Beware, the larger size you get, the longer the dress will be! And even the smaller Long sizes are REALLY long!
I ordered the 6L with the 4L as backup for a formal wedding I was in. After reading the reviews I went with the Long since I like my floor-length dresses to be ACTUALLY floor length, and I knew I wanted to wear heels. Well, the dresses arrived and there was some slight panic when I tried on the 6 and even with help I couldn't zip it past the waistband (which doesn't actually hit at the true waist -- more at the ribcage) and it was SO long that even with my sky-high heels there were a couple inches on the floor. I was devastated, thinking I would have to wear something else and wishing I'd ordered the 8 instead. The next morning (day of the wedding) I thought I'd better leave no leaf unturned and tried on the 4 anyway. The point where I got stuck the night before I got stuck at again, but it felt no tighter than the 6 had at that point, the rest of the dress actually fit better AND the length, while still long, was workable! My determination set in and with the help of 3 friends (yes, 3) we were able to zip it up! Once it was on it really didn't feel that tight -- the waistband just really is that hard to get past, so make sure you have help or pliers or something... The dress is STUNNING, one of the most unique and classy dresses I've ever seen, and certainly that I've ever worn. The length ended up being perfect with 5-in heels, still grazing the floor, and I wore it with a black shawl and blingy but simple earrings/bracelet to not distract from the gorgeous texture of the dress.

Fit pretty perfectly, a little long, but I am petite.  I had to wear 4 inch heels with the petite size.  TONS of compliments on this dress and it is even more gorgeous in person.  The fabric is beautifully stitched and very high quality.  Worn for a black tie formal business gala. 

Dress was beautiful. I ordered an 8L. I am 5’9 and wore 2in heels and it was still a little long so if you are worried about length, this dress would be great! I received lots of compliments and felt beautiful. 

There were no more 4r available so I had no choice than to get the 4L and it was supper long but I just wore it with higher heels so it wasn't a big deal.

I didn't end up wearing this, but it was beautiful and I will probably rent again. Fit slightly large, I normally wear a 6 and the 4 fit perfectly. I'm 5'8" and ordered the long based on recommendations. With heels the long would have been fine, but if I went with flats I would need the regular. 

Other reviewers' comments about the trickiness of the zipper are definitely valid. An old-school trick worked for me: I rubbed the lead of a pencil along the zipper, careful not to get marks on the dress, and it was much, much easier to open. Everything else about this dress is great!

I wore this dress to a black-tie wedding and it was very comfortable. The petite length was perfect and the fabric was gorgeous. Would definitely recommend this dress! 

This my first RTR, and I'm super pleased. There was one issue but customer service was fantastic. I wore the 6R. I got a 4L for the backup as they were out of 4R. The six fit well and was lovely. The 4L fit perfectly through the bodice but was indeed too long. My issues were that the 4L had a torn hem and wasn't fresh, so fit didn't even matter. Customer Service was apologetic and worked with me to make it right, and even offered to overnight a replacement. As for the dress: the weight and flow of the garment made me feel elegant but secure all evening. This was for an outdoor fundraiser at a racetrack, so lots of walking. I wore regular undergarments, no shapewear necessary, with a crisscross bra. I styled it with red shoes, red watch, and red lip and received compliments all evening from friends and strangers alike. 

This dress is gorgeous! It fit perfectly! I had so many compliments and even had two people tell me I was the best dressed at the wedding. I felt beautiful and very comfortable in this dress. I highly recommend!!

This dress has very pretty embroidery and despite being black and white (like my entire closet), it was a very unique piece. I wore the 8L and at 5'9" I wore flats with no problem. The 10L would've required heels, though. The top was a tiny bit tighter than an 8 normally is on me, but wasn't uncomfortable throughout the night. Overall, a beautiful piece and I'm happy I rented it!

The dress was true to size but actually really long and I'm not that short!  I had to wear 4" heels so it wouldn't drag on the ground.  It would have been nice to wear flat sandals with this dress instead of heels.  Overall this dress was gorgeous though, I would definitely rent again!

This dress was so pretty! It wasn't over the top fancy, and looked much more elegant than a typical prom dress. I liked it overall, but word of advice: the waist was very tight, in relation to the chest area. I am about 5'9", so I got the "long" since I am on the taller side. This was a very long dress! I wore 3 inch heels, and it still touched the ground. I did not get a regular length, but I would assume it would have worked just fine, and not been as long (I tripped on it several times-it was too long). I tried the 12L as well, and the waistband was better, but the chest area was very loose (and I am not small up there).

It was a beautiful dress. I'm not wearing heels in the photo, so it's not super long. The dress basically had no stretch especially at the built-in black belt, so it was very tight. If there were such thing as a size 10.5 it would have been a perfect fit. I also had a some trouble with the zipper right at the point where it crosses the belt. But I would love to rent this again to actually wear it sometime soon, since I ended up not wearing it this time around (the other dress I rented was better for the black tie event I attended)

The skirt felt fuller than it appears in photos, maybe because of the heavy material? I'm 5'9" and 140-145lbs, 34 B/C. I wore the 4L which was comfortably snug. By dessert I wished that I had worn the 6L! Could easily wear without a bra, but I needed to add some padding to fill out the top of the dress. Both the 4L and the 6L grazed the ground barefoot so I wore low heels. Zippers are definitely temperamental.

I wore this to a formal and got so many compliments on it. I absolutely loved wearing it! It fit very well, but would have been a little long if I were not wearing heels. The only real problem I had with this dress was that the zipper was tricky. Overall I had a great experience renting this dress!!

Zipper is a bit temperamental but worth the fight 

Great dress!  Received compliments from everyone that walked by.  Loved it.  Definitely need someone to help you zip and unzip it.  It's really tough.  I'm 5'6 and length was perfect.  Fitted in the top but not uncomfortable.  Didn't need a bra.  

I had great fun wearing this dress to the "Taste of the South" gala in Washington! It is appropriate for any age - I felt youthful in it (I am 59) and received a ton of compliments! The length was perfect for my low heels. The 6R was MUCH longer so I was glad the 4R fit! This was my first RTR rental and I could not have been happier. The dress I actually ordered was not available but this one was perfect.  

I wore this dress for a black-tie wedding in January and received so many compliments on it. I thought the dress was very comfortable to wear and was not restricting to dance, sit or move in.  I am about 5'10" and the LONG style proved to be perfect for me with 3 inch heels on. I think the material was very unique and better quality than I was expecting.  The only reason I would give it 4 stars versus 5 is because the zipper on my dress stuck/jammed a bit when trying to put it on or take it off.  I felt very elegant in this dress and would highly recommend!

True to size.  The zipper is tricky and I needed my husband to help zip me up.  The overlay of this dress is beautiful, and it's not at all heavy, which I was concerned about.  Easy to wear, gorgeous, and definitely stood out in a crowd of little black dresses.  Loved it!  Would rent again.

I ended up not wearing this to the event because there was another gown that I liked more. But this is a beautiful & comfortable dress. The fabric has more of a casual vibe to it. You can wear it with any bra, and the cut is flattering and forgiving. I wear between a two and a four in dresses typically and the two fit perfectly. This is a beautiful dress that I would definitely rent again.

I'm 5'10" and I wore this dress with flats. The length was perfect! Absolutely beautiful dress and I got a ton of compliments. I was worried that it might be too summery to wear to a winter wedding but the fabric is really rich and heavy so I think it worked very well. I would absolutely recommend this dress!

True to size, love Erin Fetherston fit! Beautiful fabric and slight fullness of skirt made this dress a little more formal than I expected. Comfortable, a little long of you are short like me, but doable with heels. I wore a regular racerback bra. Highly recommended!!

Fitted on top - I am normally a 6 on top (36C) and an 8 on the bottom, it fit really well.  The waist was fitted and the hips were very roomy - perfect for a curvy hourglass body.  I wore 2 inch heels and length was perfect.
