I rented this dress for my birthday at an upscale French restaurant in Chicago. The long sleeves were perfect for a fall evening. Loved the asymmetrical neckline. High quality fabric. Did not want to send it back!! Would be a great dress for almost any event.

I was originally worried about the fit as they only had an 8 or a 12 available for my event date but the 8 fit perfectly, even over my fuller bust. I was also apprehensive about the sleeves (ex-swimmer here, so I have big shoulders) but there was plenty of room and they were long enough too! The dress overall was long enough as well, which, as I'm so tall, was also a plus!

The dress was comfortable, not too hot, and subtly stylish. I really want to rent it again someday I loved it that much! Got many compliments too!

Not what I was expecting. The sleeves are cashmere (or cashmere-like) and very thin. This is a great textural and fabric contrast from the remainder of the dress, but very prone to rips. Both dresses I received had a small hole somewhere on the sleeves before I even tried them on. Not sure a dress this fragile is appropriate for RTR format. The rest of the dress was fun (neckline and structure up there is different and awesome), but didn't blow me away. I have very narrow shoulders, and this dress fit me well on top. I would certainly size up if you have broader shoulders or a more athletic frame. It was also slightly short on me.

I loved the sleeves and the different textures of the dress. It is very form-fitting and flattering, but the jersey sleeve made it comfy. Unfortunately, it was a little too big for me in the hips, I was sooo bummed I had to send it back. 

The fit was almost perfect, the sleeves were a little tight around the shoulder area though. They're also made of a different material than the rest of the dress; the sleeves are a much lighter, stretchier fabric.

Wore it for New Years Eve. Super comfortable and flattering for my body type. I don't normally wear tight dresses but this one looked amazing. You can dress it up or down.

Loved the long sleeves (run small) and the neckline! The material is not too heavy so perfect for fall and winter!

This dress was a great fit and super comfortable because the sleeves a jersey. I wore it to a brunch and it wasn't too fancy, but still looked a bit dressy because of the high quality materials and careful cut. I got tons of compliments. For fit I'd say it is a bit roomy in the waist, but overall was snug in the places i wanted it to be, and not in the others. The skirt has a bit of give. I wore House of Harlow jewelery with the dress, which also worked well.
