Great flowy dress but shapeless without a belt!
This dress is very pretty, but it was looking very toga-like and shapeless. I ended up stopping by Target and buying a belt right before we attended the wedding to create some shape. I pulled the material a little over the belt to hide it, and it ended up looking a lot better. Don't get me wrong because it would have looked fine without a belt, but since I'm a little a the short side, I didn't want to look like I wore a towel to the wedding. However, using a belt meant the dress was a little shorter -- the bottom part of the dress (with me wearing 4.5 inch heels) was off the floor, but the short part of the dress was VERY short. It wasn't so noticeable because it's a flowy dress, but I was only able to cross my legs one way in fear of flashing everyone. The material was great and the dresses I was sent had no issues at all. Overall, I would recommend this dress so long as you have a black belt ready to go just in case the dress looks too toga-like for you too!

So comfy, flowy, and pretty.
I wore this to an indian wedding where everyone else was in saris. The dress flowed and was super comfy. Also, a bunch of people at the wedding kept coming up and asking me where I got my modern-day sari. Great dress, rent it.

I. Love. This. Dress.
I am only 5'5", but I went with a long... and was glad I did. I would recommended anyone who likes super high heels to do the same. This was so flattering. I felt sexy and got tons of compliments. So glad I bought this baby!

I love this dress!
It's very easy to put on and it's very chic & romantic! I only wish they have petite size so I don't have to worry about tripping myself (since I can't wear high heels due to recent knee surgery). Oh, and one more thing: thank you for the little goodies bag!

Gorgeous dress. It runs big though.
The dress runs a little large. But everyone LOVED it. I received TONS of compliments. The fabric is very soft. It flows perfectly. It is great for dancing!

Loved this dress! Someone told me i looked like a grecian goddess.
The fit was perfect. I am 5'3" with a small bust & I had no issues with the fit. I wore the dress with 4" heels. I felt comfortable wearing this dress, even while chasing after my 2 small children at the event.

Great formal dress worn 7 months pregnant!
I wore this 7 months pregnant to a wedding-it fit great. It's close to impossible to find any attractive formal maternity wear so this was a huge coup for me. I did wear it with a black skinny belt so it was clear I was actually pregnant. The slit is VERY high and I didn't think it worked for me so I used a tiny bit of tape to close it a little lower. I received tons of compliments and am so happy I took the risk on this.

So comfy!
I wore this to a good friends wedding. I belted the dress so it wasn't so flowey, and the high slit made it appropriate in a cocktail environment. Overall a great dress! I felt great!

Extremely comfortable dress that feels dramatic and romantic, not sloppy.
I truly enjoyed wearing this dress to a fundraising dinner. It felt unique among the sequined cocktail dresses, and I got several compliments from friends and strangers alike. The XSR was the perfect length with my 4.5-inch heels. The SR was too long – even with the heels, about 2 inches of fabric dragged on the floor. Since this dress is not fitted, length is really the key to sizing. I wore it with a strapless bra, shapewear, and crystal-and-silver “cube” earrings. (I had rented the Kendra Scott black onyx earrings, but they were so heavy they hurt my ears after about two minutes.)

Comfortable, Classy and still sexy, A TRIPLE THREAT
This dress is comfortable, flows beautifully and falls to fit your shape nicely. It does come up mid thigh on the one side, which is why I opted for the Long size as I am 5'10 and didn't want to look like Angelena Jolie and my mother's wedding! I opted not to belt it and let it drape, it looked great. It is forgiving but not frumpy and shapeless, but you can have a meal and not feel like a blimp! The double layering makes for pretty easy undergarment selection as it is not see-thru. I got a lot of compliments and it was the perfect outfit for the fall evening wedding.

Perfect dress!
I was 7 months pregnant (usually a size 2) and this flowing dress was perfect to wear to a winter wedding. It would totally engulf a very petite person so I would not recommend it unless you have a fuller figure. I got a million compliments as always when I rent from RTR!

The dress arrived on time, carefully packaged and was worry free! Love the company.
I ordered the Medium Regular and the Large Long. I tried on the Medium and it fit me really big in the chest area. Ran a size bigger than expected. I am a size 10-12 and the medium regular was still too big. I cannot imagine that I would have needed a smaller size. So, both were big. I wore the medium anyway because I had nothing else to wear (the large would not have worked). I had to use the hem tape to pull it all in as it was really big on me. It was a very pretty dress though. Comfy too.

This dress is huge and looks like a tent when you wear it.
It added at least 15 pounds to my frame when I tried it on. No shape and would not recommend it!

Sharing the dance floor with my handsome husband while feeling like a princess.
This dress is flattering for all sizes and body types. It was flowy and romantic, while the slit also gave it just the right shade of sexy! I wore it with my NuBra sticky pads, which gave me just enough of a breast "curve" and added to the overall look.

Beautiful dress; fit as expected; I looked and felt fabulous!
I should have worn slightly higher shoes; the hem was right at the floor; wore 3" heels; I'm 5' 7"; for anyone taller; length would be perfect; dress fit great; felt comfortable all night; wore with strapless shapewear

Love how it flows!
This dress is very comfortable, and flows with flair.
it fit perfectly, however, I chose to wear the other dress that I ordered from RTR - Which was perfect!

Loved the drape of this dress. The regular length worked for me, even though I had 3 inch heels on.

perfect dress for a special occasion - why purchase a floor length gown you'll never wear again?
i got so many compliments on this dress! rented the xsl because i wore 5" heels and the length was perfect. if you're going with lower heels i'd suggest getting the regular length.

Loved this dress, it was breezy and comfortable and just perfect for a summer wedding in Austin.
I read that it ran large so i grabbed a smaller size and that one fit great. There is a bit of blue in this dress and it really was fantastic looking on. Felt glamourous but comfortable and breezy at the same time.

Felt amazing in this dress!
I just loved this whole concept of renting a dress....After weeks of searching for the perfect dress for my daughters engagement party at our home, I found it on RTR. The Photos are not the best, but I didn't get a full front shot, so I hope you get the idea. It runs big, so being able to get two sizes is brilliant. I am usually a Med, but ended up wearing the Small. It flowed elegantly and I got compliments all night. Just be careful going up and down stairs because the back trails a bit, (which make is so fun to wear). I can't wait until my next event to rent again. LOVE IT!!!!

I think this dress is beautiful. Runs a little big, better to go with the smaller size so you don't bare a boob! Very comfortable and just flowy and lovely. I wore this to a charity benefit and felt like a star!

Ended up using another option
I rented two dresses. This was my second option. It is very pretty; however, my first option (a Trina Turk gown) was stunning.

I got so many compliments on this dress! I wore it for a summer wedding and it was just perfect! So flattering! I'm 5'10" so this dress in a long was perfect with a pair of heels!

I got more compliments in this dress than I've ever gotten wearing anything else before.
I absolutely loved this dress and got so many compliments. I wore it for my junior prom and the style was perfect. The slit was a bit high, but it's not obvious, even when I was in 4 inch heels. It looked great unbelted, but I belted it, which helped give me more of a shape. It was very comfortable, I wish I could wear it again!
ChristyDecember 13, 2012
LOVE the belt! It's perfect!
HilaryFebruary 25, 2013
Loving the way you used the belt to secure the sleeve to your body! Added a nice solid-color dimension to one side.

I rented this and actually wore it to a wedding and felt terrible in it. It wasn't appropriate but my second pick was worse so I had to wear it. The SR size was too short and the slit on the left side was way too high so I had to wear the MR and it was huge. I ended up pinning it in three different places and I still felt like i was wearing a mumu. Also the back was too long and kept getting caught on my shoe. Unless you have A LOT to hide or are going to a luau at an assisted living facility, I wouldn't bother renting this one.

Great quality just way to big.
This dress is beautiful and the design is much more vibrant in person, it just fits very large and really isn't flattering at all. I did return it, thank god back up dress was gorgeous! This was my first experience with RTR and they were very helpful and professional. I highly recommend them to everyone now.

Fun and Flirty
This was my back up option (I went with my first choice), the dress was fun but not the right style I wanted for my event. Overall fit was a bit big but that was expected for this type of dress - I went with an XS but could have very easily worn an XXS. The color of the dress is great, some blue mixed in the pattern that isn't quite visible from the photo. The only downside, which you also can't tell from the photo is that the slit on the side starts very high.
