A little big in the back so make sure don't bend over...

I could have used a smaller size, I wish the skirt under was a bit shorter. Nice length


I shortlisted 8 dresses for a "pink" themed charity gala and my husband voted for this one. The fabric was wonderful - fluid and stretchy, but substantial. Condition looked brand-new. It was comfortable to sit and dance in. I loved that it showed little flashes of skin without being really revealing. Got lots of compliments and told everyone about RTR.

I loved everything about this dress - the fit, the color, the fabric, the edgy yet chic style.  I wore it to a industry gala and it was the perfect dress! It would be extremely flattering for any type of taller body type. It's sleek in the front and has sexy cutouts on the sides and the back. My industry friends kept saying "Business in the Front…Party in the Back!" "Love that Dress".  If this dress was available in other colors (like GREEN) I would 100% rent it for an upcoming event. 

I ordered the large because the medium was not available. The large was a tiny bit loose in certain areas and was longer then the model image, but I actually preferred it to be a little longer/looser for a work function. I think the medium (my normal size) would have worked as well. Overall, super satisfied! 

PS. The singer, Rihanna, wore it over the summer and that was fun to see in People Magazine while I was getting my nails done for the event! haha…little bonus! 

This dress was incredible.  Super comfortable -- I could wear a bra.  Subtle cutouts.  Beautiful draping.  Great color.  I would now like to buy this dress! 

the color was so bright and perfect. i'm 5'3, so it went down to my ankles. so heels are perfect for this dress. i had to rent a medium because they were out of smalls. it was big, so we pinned it and fixed it up! i've got smaller breasts, so im not sure how a larger chested woman would feel in this. my waist is 28, my hips are 39, so if those are your measurements, GET A SMALL! haha. other than that, i adored it. very very flattering. i wouldnt wear shoes with ankle straps, as it might cut off your legs at an awkward angle.

This dress was awesome! I wanted to wear it every night of the weekend. The material is stretchy and really comfy. I was incredibly comfortable and the slits, cutouts and layers were interesting. There is a slit in the back and cutouts on the side. It was so fun to wear. The color is more razzberry than hot pink.

I was attending an outdoor summer wedding and the bride requested everyone wear bright colors. I knew this dress would be perfect. I ordered the MR size, with the SR as a backup. Days before arrival, I was notified by RTR that the previous wearer had damaged the medium size so I would only get the small (and another dress option). I went out and bought crazy spanx so I could get into this dress. It's stretchy material so the small fit, but the material is not very forgiving so I was a little self conscious of my tummy all night (especially after having drinks and wedding cake). The spanx helped though, but I think the medium would have been perfect. I received tons of compliments and was comfortable while dancing. 

ALSO, a previous review mentioned that when the fabric gets wet it puckers. YES IT DOES. Since the wedding I attended was outdoors on one of the hottest weekends during the summer, there were water guns as party gifts. People kept squirting their guns into the air, so I was the girl yelling GUYS, MY DRESS. PLEASE STOP. arg.

I needed medium but was able to make the small work. Very clingy not as forgiving on the curves. 

Casual and comfy fit, yet it's secretly chic and stylish

I loved that I was able to wear a maxi dress and it not be too long on me. I wore it out for dinner with the girls and I felt unique. Someone at the restaurant stopped me to tell me it was elegant, but sexy (because of the cutouts). I couldn't agree more. You can even dress it down if you wear it without heels. I wish I could wear it again! My only concern was the skirt slip would slide down every now and then, so I probably could've gotten a smaller size, but that doesn't change how I much I love it!

I absolutely love this dress! I was a bit nervous to rent it because it's not my usual style, but I'm so glad I did. I'm generally a small/medium, but I decided to rent the small (if you're between sizes, I suggest going for the smaller size because the material is very stretchy). The length was perfect, and the slits on the sides and the opening in the back gave the dress the perfect amount of edge. It's also very comfortable (which is definitely a plus!). I completed my look with a gold Jules Smith Tribal Necklace. I will definitely be renting this dress again- I wish I didn't have to return it! 

Comfortable, light fabric and very easy to dance in! I say it runs large because I'm usually a Medium and I wore the Small in this dress - but I know designer sizing runs big in comparison to traditional sizing.

This dress was perfect for the summer wedding reception I attended! It wasn't a dress I would have ever picked out but there was something about the dress that I was drawn to! The color was great and the cut outs on the side were awesome. It was a bit tricky to get it on (lots of trial and error to find out which hole your head goes through!) but once you had it on, it fit great. I normally wear a medium or large (so I rented both) and the medium fit really well. The material was really easy to steam the wrinkles out (just a few minutes with a hand held steamer) I wore it with nude wedges. You don't need a lot of other accessories -the dress makes enough of a statement! 

Fashion forward option.  Very bright color.  Side and back cutouts, shows some skin.  It was longer than in the pictures.  I am 5'9 and it was just above my ankles.



This dress was super comfy, stretchy and really cool! I got tons of compliments while wearing it. The dress is a very pretty pink but not as bright as it appears online. Other than that I love this dress and definitely recommend it to others. 

I absolutely love this dress. I will preface that with saying-- it looks a little different and funky, and not something I would typically wear. I'm SO glad I took a risk on this one--I love how pictures from the family wedding I wore it to turned out, and I received a ton of compliments on the dress the whole night. Definitely will be renting this one again.

The color is stunning-- you will definitely stand out! Perfect for a summer/spring wedding or any type of event. The material is a soft jersey which was so comfortable and breathable, but I was also able to wear a normal bra, even given the cutouts the under layer has! Always a plus. I'd recommend a thong underwear with no seams though.

I am 6 feet tall-- and this is definitely a dress that is made for women of my similar stature. Don't think it would be great on shorter people-- just from the way the lengths of both the under layer and the over layer are. The over layer went mid-calf on me, and the under layer is a lot longer than I expected-- although the picture is deceiving it was maybe 2 or 3 inches above my knee. I typically go toward size Large for length, and the fact that I have a large chest, (I am usually a 10 in most dresses) but the L was to "L" for me.

In terms of accessories-- I meant to wear my hair up but was running late (as usual!) and just left it down. Added a big statement necklace (see picture) and simple diamond earrings, a few gold bangles, and nude open-toed wedges. Definitely depends on the event but can always go edgier (per RTR's recommendation). I also think this would look great with a big ponytail and cool dangly earrings!

I'm looking to buy this dress now so I can wear it all of the time! 

Firstly, I'm obsessed with this dress. The color is better in person, the fit is fabulous, I didn't want to take it off and I'm having separation anxiety from mailing it back. The dress alone makes such a statement that it requires very little styling, I just wore a simple pair of satin Tory Burch pumps, sleek hair, smoky grey eye and a clean gold teardrop hoop. I felt like a million bucks, it's so sexy and flattering and can work for so many occasions and I got oodles of compliments. One thing worth mentioning is that the dress a bit complicated to put on. There's a form fitting "underdress" attached at the shoulders with openings in the waist and back - they serve a great purpose in the overall effect but deciding which hole is for your head is a bit of an experiment. The dress also has two flimsy strings on the hip attaching the "overdress" to the "underdress" and one immediately (and cleanly) detached on one side (thanks, $5 insurance policy!); I think that's a design flaw. It's a very sexy dress, it has the illusion of coverage but there is lots of flesh exposed thanks to strategic cut outs and slits so it's perfect if you want a pop of color and the ability to pull an Angelina on the red carpet. With this dress, Helmut Lang puts a new meaning to the word "bodycon". Rent it now.
