Loved this dress! It's sculpted, sturdy, and fits extremely well. No need for a bra. It's by far one of my top favorite dresses - love this designer. 

I ordered my normal size (4), and as a back up sized up (6) based on other reviews and I'm glad I did. The size 4 would have been a better length (mid-knee; I'm 5' 2"), but I couldn't get the interior zipper around my rib cage / bust. In general, the zipper was a bit tricky, and definitely requires two people. Although the size 6 fell just below my knee, it added a nice sophisticated air. The corset boning was very flatting and kept me feeling slim and secure all night. However, it did start to pinch me around the waist when dancing which was uncomfortable, but tolerable. Totally worth it in the end! I received tons of complements, and my boyf loved spinning me around the dance floor with the full skirt. Up close, the dress did look a little warn, but I doubt anyone noticed at the event! 

This dress is pretty small in the bust.  I didn't have a problem with that, but I could see how others might have a problem.  It was longer than I expected it to be- just below my knees. But this dress was so cute and perfect, I had to wear it! Pearls go great with this dress. This was my first time renting from RTR. I picked the dress up at the store in Chicago. They let me try it on and even gave me some advice about accessories!  The whole experience was seamless. I would definitely rent from RTR again. 

I probably could have sized down but it wasn't available (it was a bit big up top for me as I have lost some weight and was unsure of my size). But it's so girly and sophisticated. It was also comfortable and of nice quality. The boning isn't uncomfortable at all. I had so much fun wearing it! I got compliments all morning and all the moms asked where I got it! 

Great if you have smaller upper body and larger bottoms and hips. 

Loved this dress!  Fit great and the boning in the bodice really helped me feel like everything was "kept in place".  I'm a 34C, 140lbs 5'6" and feel like wearing a bra was optional in this dress - wore a size 6 and it fit perfectly.  The skirt is very full which I loved, but be advised that there is no underlayer to it, so if you're going down a flight of stairs and don't hug the skirt to your legs at all, or wear a slip, people down below may be able to see your undies.  Got SO many compliments in this dress and wore it with a shrug sweater to a baby shower in the afternoon and then without the sweater to a wedding that night.  Everyone kept asking me where I got it!   Would highly recommend as a formal, flirty dress to anyone.

I like that the dress was fitted and I felt comfortable not wearing a bra to the event.  Dress stayed in place and even put up with some heavy dancing.  Being tall--I liked that it was longer and I didn't feel like I had to pull it down when I sat or kneeled down.  Great for dancing and really highlights an hourglass figure.  I typically wear a 6 or 8 and ended up having to get an 8--glad I did because the 6 would have been too tight (don't forget, it's basically a corset!).  Would rent this dress (and this designer) again.

Fit perfect up top, and everyone raves about his good the dress looked and how small it made me look! I love the big bottom! Perfect since I am hourglass! Highly recommend this dress! It was my best RTR experience yet!

I ordered this dress one week before my sister-in-law's wedding. RTR was incredibly fast with shipment and thorough with return shipping details and materials. Overall, this experience was a win-win. The dress runs true-to-size but keep in mind that it is a corset top and is intended to squeeze you in. After reading other reviews, I decided to order a size 6 and 4 because I have a small bust. My advice: Listen to RTR and order a size up with this dress. I normally wear a size 8 and was in ego-mode thinking that I could wear a size 4 based on other reviews. I would have been much more comfortable in a size 8. But, the dress is so slimming, that I felt skinny and beautiful all night. One thing that I really loved is that I had NO back-fat! Sometimes corset-style strapless dresses push the back-fat  up, but this dress is designed to accentuate only the very best features. 

Fits beautifully and loved every second wearing it. It was the perfect dress for my birthday tea time at the Peninsula Hotel in LA. The dress was exactly what I was looking for. It's very feminine and puffs out at the bottom. It flared more than I expected but that was a good thing. 

Wore for a holiday party - the original dress I ordered didn't work out and I got this as a last minute back up. So glad that I chose it, dress was very well made and I got tons of compliments. The only issue was the teeth in the zipper were a little messed up but that's probably because not everyone who rents takes great care of the dresses. Would absolutely purchase this dress!!!


Fantastic boning and structure. Fun, full skirt-- would definitely rent this one again!

finally a dress that fits my little ribcage!! days after the wedding, i was still receiving texts from people wondering where I got it. vintage-feel, regal material, and beautiful silhouette; didn't want to take it off. (almost midi-length: definitely to be worn with heels!)

This was my usual size and very comfortable.  The bodice has good structure so you don't have to adjust all night.

I'm  a 34DD/36D and I can NEVER be braless in anything-I never ever tried until this dress.  Great fit/structure. Makes a nice waist for the wearer. The fabric is rich and heavy and was a bit much in the Florida heat, but once I got inside I was fine. My boss said I looked like a doll and everyone else said it was precious or that I looked like a princess. I wish to God I could keep it. It's my favorite color. I did not need to iron it or alter it in any way. It was dress and go. Great for a dressy party! I will be renting more. This was a great first try! 

I wore this to my cousin's wedidng. It was absolutely beautiful! The color was very similar to the photo. It is very fitted through the waist and a bit bigger in the bust,  but tape took care of any gapping. The fabric is high-quality; the dress has a very vintage feel. The bottom came down to the middle of my knees, but I wore very high heels so it didn't mess with my proportions too much, I would rent this again!

Great internal corset to make you really hourglassy...can't say enough good things about this dress

Fit like a glove, but you def. Need a partner to zip up. Also, the boning started to poke me by the end of the night, not a deal breaker, just slightly uncomfortable.  Would rent again in a heart beat!

Both size 2 and 4 fit and looked the same so I wore the larger dress for comfort.  Fit we'll with a strapless bra, true to size.  Stiff material meant skirt stayed puffed out without steaming.  Had so much fun dancing in this beautiful dress!

I wore this dress for a special date night out, Anniversary celebration. The dress was perfect! It was just what I imagined it would look like on me. For a girl who is 6 feet tall it was the perfect length. 
I would buy this dress .


This is a great dress for an outdoor summer event. The fabric and quality is top notch, and the skirt 'poof' is wonderful--no itchy tulle underneath! Like other reviewers have said, it has an inner corset which makes for a flattering, yet snug, fit. Being a strapless dress, I chose to size down in order to ensure a secure, dance-safe fit. It was perfect, and everything stayed in place all night long. Its such a pretty and elegant dress and just a hint sexy--I didn't want to take it off! Received many compliments throughout the night and possibly some new RTR fans!

I rented this dress for a wedding and am SO happy that I did. This dress is pretty major! I got compliment after compliment. The slit in the front added a little sexiness to the dress, but it wasn't too much. I am 5'9", and the dress came to right above my knee, so it was a great length for a wedding! The fabric is heavy and luxe and looks beautiful. But, be prepared that on a hot day, you may get a little warm. It is hard to tell from photos, but the flowers on the dress are a light ivory, not white. Overall I felt AMAZING and got SO many compliments. I usually wear a 10 in dresses, but only the 12 was available, so I went ahead and rented it because I loved the dress and because of my bust, I can get away with a 12 or a 10. The dress fits true to size, and the 12 was just fine, but I do wish I was able to have the 10. Oh well, it was amazing either way! I am pretty busty (34DDD) and I had plenty of room in the chest. Some reviewers said that the corset in the dress held things in without a bra. I think if I had rented the 10, I might have not needed a bra, but I felt more comfortable with one on. The "corset" zips up the back, so you will need help getting into the dress. The top hook is a sturdy one, and I had no issues with the zipper at all. I wore this with the  Alexis Bittar Chantilly Garden Earrings and Kendra Scott Crackled Gold Bangle Set. The mint in the earrings was a great contrast! You will NOT regret wearing this dress :)


The dress fit perfectly! Tight enough that I didn't have to wear a bra, but very comfortable and able to easily sit and dance. 

The structure was fantastic. Not as heavy of a material as I was worried for a June wedding. Unique design. All around beautiful dress that looked great. 

Perfect for highlighting a small waist. I included a photo from the back so you can really see the shape. Absolutely stunning dress. 

You feel like a pretty pretty princess in the best way. And I say that as a grown woman. Was so fun to run around in that pink confection all day. Lots of compliments. 

A friend told  me about this site two weeks before my wedding.  I ordered the dress for the reception, but once I tried it on, I threw my wedding dress to the side and wore this.  It gave me the hour glass figure I was looking for.  The fit was true to size.  The most beautiful thing I've ever worn. 

This was my "back up" dress, but the second I tried it on I knew it was the one!  

Many have noted that the fabric is heavy - this is one of the things I loved about the dress.  The skirt has a full flair and due to the heavy weight of the fabric it stays "poufed", which is glamorous in and of itself.  The pale pink is lovely and could go from being dressed down to dressed up, which worked perfectly for an outdoor wedding at a Boston yacht club.  The skirt was perfectly knee length, which kept me cool on the summer day without being too showy or inappropriate.  The excellent bodice support never had me worried that the dress would fall - I danced all night without worry.  I've rented several RTR dresses but this one got (by far) the most compliments!  One older lady told me at the end of the night to never, ever get rid of this dress and to wear it every chance I got.  I didn't have the heart to tell her I had to return it the next day.  :)  

Sorry I don't have a full length pic - but this dress is darling in person.  Think a sophisticated, slightly sexy Alice in Wonderland tea party dress.  The corset keeps everything in place, didn't need a bra!  The skirt is full and fun.  And the color is a perfect rosy pink. Got compliments all night long!

This dress is Amazing! So flattering.  I wore it for my daughters wedding and received endless compliments on the dress.
I simply adore this dress.  I would rent it again! The dress is prettier in person.
My first experience with RTR was Excellent.  This dress exceeded my expectations.

I'm just wondering how tall you are?  I'm about 5'3" and wear a size 0 or 2, and I'm worried about it being too long on me.  I like the length on you - just wondering your height?  Thanks!

I loved this dress!  I received a ton of compliments, one woman told me I had the best dress of the night! I needed help getting into the dress but once I had it on everything stayed put the entire night. Easy to dance in too.  

This dress ran true to size and was a dream to wear. As the other ladies on here mentioned the material was heavy but not in a bad way and I was cool and comfortable all night. I adore the cut of this dress, from the fit of the top (the corset is amazing) to the flare of the skirt. But most importantly, I felt beautiful in it. And it was definitely a hit with others. I honestly can't count the number of compliments I got all night long from total strangers. I did not want to give this back!

Hi Suzanne! It flared out nicely and hit just below the knee. 

Hi! I'm 5' 2" also. Where on your leg did the dress hit you? Thanks.

This dress has the most beautiful fabric! I received a ton of compliments on the fabric and the fit of the dress. It fits snugly at the bust and nips in at the waist in a very figure flattering way. The skirt flares out in a fun, full way and is great for dancing! I did not need a bra for this dress, and it has a built in corset that keeps the dress in place.

Wore this dress to my law school graduation brunch and it was absolutely perfect.  The coloring and style worked perfectly with the vintage tea party theme and I cannot even put a number on the amount of compliments I got.  The fit was amazing; the built in "corset" meant no bra or shape-wear necessary!  It broke my heart to mail it back, but. I would recommend this dress to anyone and everyone; this dress makes you feel feminine and beautiful the instant you put it on. 

I ordered a size 4 without a backup size bc it was not available. Thank goodness it fit true to size! The corset top prevented slipping and made me feel so thin! The length was perfect for a church wedding. I am 5'11" and the dress hit me j above the knee - this dress might overwhelm a shorter frame. I wore it with light pink pumps and simple silver jewelry. It was a very well made dress and I would rent it again! 

I rented this dress last minute for a garden wedding in San Diego, and RTR made it convenient and seamless by shipping directly to the hotel the day before the wedding.  While I was skeptical about the crinkle effect shown in the pictures - I could not have been more blown away with how beautiful it was in person.  There is substantial support throughout the bust and ribcage, and a boned corset keeps everything in place without a bra!  It is made from very heavy material (almost like I was wearing heavy drapes.. in a good way! Ha!) and yet in 86 degrees -  I was cool as a cucumber!  I received endless compliments all night long, even found myself being named "best dress of the night" from the bride herself!  When it was all over, I dropped the dress in the provided UPS bag and the front desk took care of returning it for me!

I rented this dress for a garden wedding and just fell in love with it..and so did my hubby!  It runs true to size and the construction of the dress is top notch, wearing a bra with it is optional. I like that for a strapless dress I didn't have to keep pulling it up like some other strapless dresses.  I highly recommend it!

This dress is amazing. The material is thick and looks very expensive. The top fit very snug like a corset and then flares out at the bottom. Will rent again.  

I was in the South for a semi-formal event that took place mostly in the garden.  I matched the pink azaleas!  Overall, the dress fit true to size.  The dress is cut to hit at the knee, longer than most flared skirts. It's very modest in this way, no concerns about your skirt flying up in the wind. I think taller girls would be really happy with the length, but shorter girls would not like this style.  The corset and built in bra were excellent, nothing fell out of place the whole day and unlike most strapless dresses, I was not constantly pulling the top up.  The dress is really girly, I paired it with black accessories to give it some edge. Compliments on the style were flowing in my direction, and I loved the feeling and sway of the dress. I would highly recommend this to anyone who wants to feel pretty.

I ordered the 0 and 2 but ended up wearing the 0.  It has a built in corset so it was quite tight when I was sitting in the limo, but standing up was fine.  I suggest if you are wearing this to a dinner, order the size up.  I absolutely love the dress and I keep getting asked where I got it on the Facebook pictures.  It was an amazing party dress that I'll never forget.

The fabric was surprisingly thick, and it stayed relatively comfortable and in place through a long night of dancing. The only downside is there's a built-in bra of sorts that is both really tricky to get in and out of and itches/rubs a bit after a while. Worth it, though. Got a lot of compliments and had a great time. 

This dress fit so well and was so comfortable! It was the perfect dancing dress!

Perfect dress for a wedding. The size 8 fit perfectly, which is my usual size. Sometimes I'm a size 6, but that was way too tight on my bust and the boning from the corset was poking me. With the size 8 I had no issues with any poking or scratching. I would definitely recommend this dress! The dress did show a bit of wear and pilling and the size 6 smelled a bit like B.O. in the armpit area, but luckily I fit the other size.

Built in bra is a savior. The light pink is very pretty. Fabric is a little crinkled. 

I loved this dress, I received several compliments all night. The material was really nice but a bit heavy for a lot dancing. The top fits a little snug but it was good for support. I enjoyed wearing the dress.

This dress definitely turned heads at the wedding! The corset sucks you in and there is a little bit of pinching from the boning if you sit in a certain way (pain is beauty, right?). I would definitely rent it again in heartbeat, to be honest I really didn't want to send it back. 

There is an inner zipper for the corset and an outer zipper for the dress. It really holds you in and makes the fit great. The dress was stunning and everywhere I went people stopped to compliment me and the dress. It was long enough (I'm taller) and the fabric was of great quality. I can't say enough great things about this dress. I would rent it again for the right occasion.

the fit was perfect. Snug on torso and full skirt perfect for more curvy girls only downside was tips of the boning sticking out but covered it up with band aids to stop stabbing me in the side 

Thought this fit true to size, I somehow don't have a more straightforward picture of me wearing it but it was the perfect dress to wear in my best friend's wedding. The built in boning was comfortable all night. 

I enjoyed the fit of this dress. I didn't have to wear a bra because of the boning in the top. The full skirt and color was very feminine which I really liked. I thought the fit was true to size, but it was a little tight at the top so I could see needing a larger size if you have a bigger bust. Overall, loved it! 

I got this dress for my birthday a year ago and I almost cried because it was no wear close to zipping up, but it was AMAZING.   I ordered it again, 2 sizes bigger and it fit!  Up top im usually a small/medium, size 4/6, but I rented the 8 and it fit.   It is like a corset up top but perfect tea cup structure below.  It's extremely flattering and I got a ton of compliments!  Would get this again in a heartbeat!   Maybe sure you go one size up and back up two sizes bigger.  

Twirl till your hearts content in this baby! Best for smaller chests. I wore a 8, and have a pretty narrow rib cage. I did wear a strapless bra to fill it out a little, but the corset on the inside held things up well. It is very poofy, so be prepared to stand out. Wore with nude pumps. dress came to just above my knees. The corset did pinch a little in the beginning but I got used to it. I would rent again for a "fun dressy event". My husband actually liked it even though it wasn't fitted. 
Although mine arrived damaged with some pulls to the fabric on the left hip, no one else noticed. 

This was a dress that had to be rushed to me after my original order arrived damaged.  I gave it 5 stars because the dress is super cute, and would've been perfect in a size up but wasn't available.  The corset is WAY too tight - I'm a 32DDD/34DD bust and I have a small waist.  My boobs were falling out so much that it made me had fat rolling over my arms - again a size up I believe would have fixed the problem.  I'm 5'7 with a long torso and it hit me right above the knee.  I definitely recommend this for taller women!  It does flare out much more than I expected but I still liked it.  I wish I could have worn it.  

Flared out just enough. Had beautiful structure and was the perfect length. Loved it!

I felt it runs small but I have a large chest; 36D. I normally wear a 4 but sized up with a 6 and it took my boyfriend and a neighbor to zip me into this dress. Once on, it is very much like a corset and you feel teeny, there is no give in the fabric! The color and material of the fabric are gorgeous and I loved twirling around in it. I combined this with silver, chandelier earrings and a silver, simple heel. I also carried the Kate Spade whimsical, ice cream clutch. I received a ton of compliments and recommend this dress. However, 4 stars because the zipper was tarnished and some of the fabric on the chest was a bit worn. All in all, another great RTR experience. 

I can't say enough good things about this dress. The color and the shape are so flattering and the built in corset and bra were great for support and coverage. The skirt was so fun to dance in. I received compliments all night! I wish it was mine to own! Hated returning it! I normally wear an 8 or 10 and they only had a 12 available. It did fit and was comfortable but I would have preferred the 10. The 8 would have been much to small in the bust especially. This dress is a total winner! I will be renting again in the future!

fit PERFECT. built in bra!! I went with another option because the event was outdoors & it was unusually hot & the fabric of this dress is heavy, but I will definitely come back to rent this if I need a daytime dress in the future!!

I wore this for my bridal shower and I was so happy I did. I loved how the bodice was so slimming and the fullness of the skirt was so much fun! The fabric was so rich!! I just loved the sweet pink color and beautiful texture in the fabric - truly sweet and feminine. I felt like a princess 

It definitely runs on the small side in the bust but the corset waist and full skirt creates a wonderful silhouette! So many compliments on this dress and loved the weight/quality of the fabric. I would rent again! 

Can't eat too much in this dress. The corset is fitted but helps the dress keep a beautiful shape. 

This dress was gorgeous and made me feel beautiful! I got lots of compliments all night. It's fitted through the mid section but gives a very secure feeling. Will rent again!

The compliments I received on this dress were endless. It was perfect for the country club wedding I attended. First of all, I loved the bottom of this dress. The skirt is so full, you can't help but twirl in it. Secondly the top- DO NOT get the dress if you're larger than a B cup! You WILL pour out of it. I was pretty much maxed out at a 34B. I would buy this dress if I could...that's how much I loved it; however, the reason it got 4 stars instead of five? There's an inner corset, which had boning I wanted to rip out. (If I owned it, I could) 😉 Overall, this dress was a dream! I would highly recommend it.

This dress is devine.  I usually wear a size 6, they couldn't send the 6, got the 8 (my backup size) and it fit perfectly.  I wouldn't have been able to fit in the 6 anyway.  The built in corset is snug and holds everything up, no bra needed, no tugging at the dress, it was fantastic.  The skirt is very big and I absolutely loved it.  The whole dress is very forgiving because the corset holds everything in and then poufs, so I ate lots of BBQ and was comfortable all night long.  I wanted to keep the dress and I got so many compliments all night long for it.  LOVE!

Has a great built in corset, but that being said, it runs a little tight in the rib cage. Very structured and great material. The color is very pretty! Received lots of complements. 

I wore this dress to a wedding on a hot summer day.  It was fabulous - one of my top 5 rentals for sure!  The built in bra helped everything stay in place and I didn't need to wear anything else.  I got lots of compliments and enjoyed how it flared out more than most dresses.  I have a smaller bust and I thought this was flattering.  I'm not sure how it would looked on a larger busted woman, but the support was there.  

I loved wearing this dress and I want to wear it again. It never moved and stayed up the whole time. The length was perfect and I felt beautiful. 

This dress made me look and feel like a million bucks. I wore it for my bridal shower and it was perfect. There's no tulle in it so it's not as hot as it could be and it's not itchy at all. The skirt is quite structured which I loved. The corset it wonderful and sucks you in! I'm usually a size 6 in clothes and even the 8 was a bit snug in the corset region, but it was close enough. Multiple people who knew I did RTR (but didn't understand how it worked) told me I should keep the dress--it was amazing!

The dress is very beautiful and makes your waist look great! It is a little long so you if your short, heels is a must. The corset is extremely uncomfortable. It pocked me all day but beauty is pain I guess! 

I wore this to our couples shower that was Triple Crown themed (and there was a triple crown winner!). I got amazing compliments all night. The 10 would have probably been more comfortable, but the 8 held me in more and I didn't have to wear a bra. The bodice is very structured, which is great.

This dress was just beautiful and perfect for my event attending the Kentucky Oaks race. The dress is extremely well structured with good solid fabric and stitching and reinforced boning in the corset top. I loved the flair of the skirt that had just enough fullness.
I would have probably fit a little better in a 0 but that size was unavailable and the 2 worked just fine. It was just a little loose in the bust but a more padded bra fixed that. 
My ONLY issue with the dress was that one of the areas with boning in the corset poked me all day long which was really annoying and left a small mark on my back by the end of the day. I'm sure it could be fixed by wearing a tight slip or a band aid to protect against the poking/rubbing but overall I would rent it again in a heartbeat!
