When I first tried it on, I hated it. I felt frumpy. But eventually I grew to love it. It hugs the body pretty well, so great shape wear may be needed. But it nice, unique and photographed beautifully.

I loved the style on line but was nervous that it would be too form fitting however, the fabric was forgiving and laid perfectly.  It had just the right amount of stretch and was super comfortable.  I got so many compliments.  

The dress is weird. It runs slightly large at the top, at least for me, and a little snug on the bottom. I had to wear a spank, but no bra. The dress had enough structure for me to feel comfortable without wearing one, though. The dress, also, has a slightly different color than depicted on the website. It's more of a gray than a tan. I was still very satisfied with it. And a note to taller women, the long isn't really THAT long. I had on a 3 inch heel (with no platform), and it was a little shorter than I expected.

This was my first RTR rental so I wasn't sure what to expect. My body shape is small on the top and larger towards the bottom, so the dress size I had to order was a 6R. My overall feeling about my purchase is just happiness. That night at my senior prom I received many compliments, so with that said I highly recommend you purchase something from RTR! 

The dress fits to a tea. It is true to size dress. I normally wear a 0 or 2 and i could wear both but the 0 just fit better and looked a lot sleeker and this is a very sleek dress. The only thing I liked about the 2 more was that the dress was a little bit longer. The dress is surprisingly short, which you would not know on the model. So, if you want it to hit the floor get it LONG. In my case, i was at a club opening so the shorter was better, but if I wasn't I would have wanted it to hit the floor. Other than the shortness, the dress is elegant and sexy. People will love you in it. 100%, 

I loved the cut and fit of this dress, but I wish I had gotten the long! It was a few inches too short (I wore 4.5 inch heels). Also, there is no way to wear any type of bra or pasties/petals. The dress is so tight and the material is so delicate I had to go braless, I tried 3 different types of "pasties" the silicon and the regular ones... they were all visible. I was a little self conscious about that all night, but I got a ton of compliments on the dress.

Both sizes 2R and 3R were a little short.

Was the color white or cream & Im about 5'8 would this not be a good look on me ?

I rented this dress as my backup for prom, and I'm really glad my other dress fit. The sides and back of this came down wayyy lower than I thought they would. The dress fit my body well, but in order to wear this I would've had to get a stick on bra and a different length. The dress was very awkwardly short, and barely hit the floor for me (and I'm short!!). I don't know if taller people would be able to wear this if the regular is so short on shorter people like me. I loved this dress in theory, but it wasn't suitable for my event. 

I typically wear a 4, but the 6 in this fit perfectly. The 4 barely hit the floor while I was in my bare feet, so I sized up due to the length. I'm 5'4, wore 3 inch heels, and the 6 was a perfect fit. The chest is pretty revealing on the side, but I wore fashion tape and felt fine. I got a lot of compliments on this one. The clutch and bangles are also from RTR!

Unfortunately this dress didn't work out. The color was not cream, but tan, which is very unflattering on me because I am pale and blonde. The cut, which i thought would be unique, didn't fit me well. It made my boobs look really bad honestly. The fit of the dress was strange on me too. It made my butt look square. This dress did nothing for me and i was unable to wear it for my event. I would recomend this dress to someone with a smaller bust, olive to medium skin, and an athletic body type. 

This dress was amazing and I felt amazing in it, especially when my husband's jaw dropped to the floor after he saw me all dressed up. I recieved so many compliments and was told I was the best dressed out of all the army wives. I felt like a million dollars in this dress. It stretched just enough where needed. I did need to wear spanx with this dress though and every small line from the spanx were clearly visible from the dress but it was not hard to make it appear as if it was just a wrinkle in the dress or a small fold. 

I'm 5'11'', 145 lbs, usually wear 6, sometimes goes up to 8, depending on the brand. I got two sizes for this gown 6L and 8L. The 6L fits nicely. More over, it allows you to wear a NuBra inside. The geometrical cutting in the middle is slimming your waist. Overall, I'm really satisfied. The color, though, is actually silver like, not very white, not entirely the same as the catalogue picture. But it turns out to be looking good on pictures. 

Do you have on the size 2 in this picture??

This baby runs small.  I usually wear a 0, and I didn't even end up wearing the 2 because I felt it was still too tight/showy for a military ball.  I wore my back-up instead.  It looks as though RTR has updated the color in the model photo, which now looks pretty true-to-life.  The biggest challenge with this gown was undergarments. Since it runs small, I felt as if I MUST wear Spanx to even have a chance of pulling this off.  I could wear a standard strapless bra, so long as a wore it pulled down low in the back.  My underwire was relatively visible though, again because the dress is constrictive.  I don't know how to rate this gown... it is a 5 for sure in terms of beauty- my hubby was impressed by how modern and sexy the neckline is.  However, I give it a 3 in terms of ease of wear.  It's not a throw-it-on-and-go gown.

they appear to have changed their model's photo.. it now appears champagne-ish.. just like the real color of the gown. 

What color is it?  Another renter said a silvery-grey?

Hi- I just received this dress in the mail the other day.  When I first saw it, I thought of it as being champagne.  This picture is a little dark.  I think it just depends on the lighting.  Definitely, definitely not bright white like the picture though.  

its was probably a pearly white of off-white.. perhaps a certain type of champagne might fit as well :) the dress was pretty tho. i liked it.. just that i'd specifically used their 'color-search' option and selected a white gown. Besides, i thought these reviews went directly to the company rather than were displayed publicly .. reason i thought i should let em know their color search could be improved. :) 

had been reading a bunch of r.a. salvator in which the spellcaster Lady Alustrial and others wore beautifgul gowns.. described them to my husband and told him i wished i had one.. he rented this for me for my birthday.. was a very special day indeed!
