The dress fit perfectly and was form fitting. I'm 5' 6" and I wore 2" heels and the length was perfect. When the sun shined the dress glistened and was just beautiful. It was perfect for a Black Tie wedding at Oheka Castle. I would absolutely rent this dress again.

The beautiful flow of this dress made it so comfortable to wear.  The built in bra was a plus and the color was so soft and pretty. 

I ordered a 2R and it was too short.  It also didn't zip in the bust.  

I think this may have ran small due to the number of people who have worn it - it's just bound to get a little stretched out over time. I'm never usually a 4L but there was ample room in the bust (almost too much room, some of the boning started puckering up in the gown as you can see in the photo). I usually never wear a strapless dress due to support issues but this held up just fine all night because there is an internal "corset". I would just make sure to have some serious spanx on throughout your event because the sequinned fabric is not very forgiving to food babies.

Fit true to size. Beautiful in person.
Received lots of compliments. Great dress. 

Fit great and length is a true long. I am 5"11 and it's difficult finding long enough dresses. Love how the end of the dress flows. I felt like a Barbie doll in this dress. 

Everyone loved this dress, it's not my style at all... But it was very pretty and eye catching 

I'm 5'7 and the 0R was a little too long, but it's a perfect gown for a black tie 

First dress came and wasn't a great fit and looked worn, but RTR immediately sent another (2) dresses of our choice and we couldn't be happier with the customer service. I will use them again and again!

Dress fit great, was moderately comfortable, flowed beautifully. The issue was that it looks like a wedding dress. Took some pics with my fiancé and everyone thought we 








I'm usually between a 0 and a 2, but I ended up wearing the 2, because the fit on the waist is quite snug (just the way the dress is structured). I loved the color, with just enough sequins on top and a really flowy skirt. Unfortunately the dress was just a tad too long on me (I was wearing 3-inch heels, too).

Six weeks post partum, I'm normally a size 4 but wore the 6 for a perfect fit! 5'8" the long was great with heels!!

The built in corset is a bit tight around the torso, but it gave great support.  This dress is extra long, even the regular.  Overall loved the dress.  

I usually wear a 6 but was glad I ordered the 8 for the girls to fit. The 6 fit everywhere else but the bust. There is an inner bra/corset which was good and bad. The good: I felt extra secure without worrying I might pop out. The bad: the corset had some boning that flared out and occasionally had to be readjusted to smooth out the silhouette. Also, I still chose to wear a strapless bra to give more lift which helped the overall look. Also, the midsection is very revealing so even with a tiny mommy tummy, I needed spanx to smooth it out. With the proper undergarments I thought the dress looked great and was comfortable wearing it for hours. The flow of the light and airy fabric made walking feel easy and dreamy. Also, it happened to be a ridiculously hot day so the light fabric was very appreciated! 

This was a light butter yellow dress with a wonderful fit and feel. The built in bra was a nice touch to keep it from slipping down! I also was very happy with the length, fit to the ground with shoes at 6' tall. 

Overall the fit was good, however, the 4R was long even wearing platforms. The 2R's length was better, but snug around the bust. The gown was absolutely gorgeous!!

Beautiful gorgeous flowy chiffon dress, and the color is stunning, soft butter yellow.  In addition to the outside zipper, the inside corset also zips although I didn't see that until I took it off!  Lots of compliments all night long and I felt  special! The gown was definitely long enough for me, I'm 5'10 and wore 3 " heels. LOVED IT. 

I absolutely love this gown! The soft yellow is beautiful for spring and summer, the sequins are delicate, and the skirt is feminine and flowy. I would say that this color is saturated enough to be great for a summer wedding or any black tie event. I am typically a 0-2 and the size 2 was a bit too big. The size 0 would have been a perfect fit and really cinched in my waist. The dress runs true to size, and if you are small busted- size down for back up. 

Rented this dress for a wedding. I immediately fell in love w the color when I saw it online. It is a form fitting non-forgiving dress. However I am a curvy lady so keep that in mind. In retrospect I would have ordered the long. I am 5'6" and w/o heels it was just above the floor. I like my long dresses to cover my shoes. But that is my personal preference. I would highly recommend this dress for a summer formal occasion. The color reminded me of Belle from beauty and the beast. It is a whimsical dress that will make you feel like a princess.  ;)
