I am a 38D bust and I had to have fashion tape to keep from having a wardrobe malfunction and even then I had a few close calls. Awesome fabric, Awesome Dress I would rent it again for sure but runs a bit small and short for someone who likes to wear heals. 

It feels like butter on your skin.  It is a VERY sexy dress so if you're not prepared for that then I wouldn't rent it.  Very revealing in the chest area, I wear a 34 B bra size so I don't have much to fill it out.  The slit in the front hits your thigh perfectly.  I got so many complements all night on the dress. <3  I would LOVE to own this one.  Perfect dress to make an impression! <3

OK, this is by far the hardest dress I ever had to wear - bra is impossible (not easy for my size), and underwear is nearly impossible. However, I loved wearing it, felt so special and sexy, but not in evident way. Got lots of compliments. 

The dress was perfect. I felt incredible the entire night, and the material was so comfortable. However, make sure you pick the right size! I overestimated my size, so when I picked another size for free (a 10) it was way too large and the size 8 was slightly too large. This obviously was my fault for not ordering the right size, but luckily I ordered some garment tape alongside with it. Underneath the dress, I wore one of those strapless sticky bras that hook together (to boost my cleavage), and a pair of seamless thigh/stomach spandex. The fabric of the dress isn't thick, so if you have any lines underneath it, they are going to show. So make sure you have some undergarments that are seamless, otherwise you'll look stunning in the front, but awkward in the back. Also, you don't HAVE to get spandex, but I chose to so that I wouldn't have any lumps and so that my figure would look smooth in this. Oh, and even if you do pick the right size, I'd still recommend getting some garment tape. The fabric on the chest slips around a little bit sometimes depending on how you're moving. 

Listen: if you wear a dress that makes everyone stop and stare, and start literally CHEERING for you, you become attached to that dress. So when I had to send it back to RTR, I almost cried because I have never felt so beautiful in my entire life. This dress was an absolute hit at my senior prom, and I need to find a way to buy it so that I can continue looking like Queen Bey.  I love this dress so much.  Thank you so much for making my senior prom so incredible.

I loved this dress so much that I bought it ! Wore it to a wedding and for my own engagement photos. It's a sheer material so will show any bumps...nothing Spanx can't help with :)

This dress was amazing - so many compliments! Very comfortable and easy to wear. I had to use a little double sided tape for the top but other than that it was perfect! I would definitely recommend for a black tie wedding. 

The dress fits great overall, however, the straps/too does run a bit loose so using double sided tape and safety pins is a must.  Got lots of compliments and am so glad I chose this dress! 

I had to work a little for this dress... totally WORTH IT, but the top part is hard to fit for someone who is small chested. The 2R fit perfectly even though I'm usually 4-6 and pear shape so this dress definitely runs large. The thing that didn't fit perfectly was around my rib cage, the zipper was incredibly stubborn and we really had to work to zip it up. Once it was zipped it forced me to sit STRAIGHT up all night like a corset. The straps are very long so I had to pin them with a clip (wore my hair down so you couldn't tell) and fashion tape around your boobs are a MUST otherwise you'll have a slip for sure. So again, had to work a bit for it but the length was perfection with some wedge heels, the slit was perfect, the material was like heaven, and I'm obsessed with the color! The dress around the stomach (everywhere but the chest really) is very forgiving so I didn't feel like I couldn't enjoy this weddings food! All around just an absolutely gorgeous dress that I simply HAD to wear even though it required a bit of adjusting! 

I ordered a 4R for a masquerade themed gala. This dress was a good option for the event & was pretty overall, but I had a few minor issues. As the other reviews have stated, it is very very low cut so it wasn't ideal for my 34B chest (although some fashion tape probably could've helped that) and I could foresee it being problematic for ladies with large breasts as well. The way the dress hangs is gorgeous, however it made me feel a little insecure as you could see every bump & bulge on my body through it. This also made choosing underwear difficult. On a positive note though, the color was absolutely stunning & I wish so badly I could've made it to my event...it certainly would've stood out among all the black, blue and red dresses I saw from Facebook that people were wearing. Overall I really did love the dress (I wore it around my house everyday until the event)  and the minor problems I did have weren't deal breakers. 
Don't mind my Fitbit in the pic but when I actually got ready, I took that off & it looked so pretty with gold strappy heels & minimal (dainty) gold jewelry & hair up. 

My daughter wore this dress for her senior prom and looked stunning! Paired with Silver and dark gray, her and her date looked amazing!! This is definitely a dress for someone with bigger boobs but a little fashion tape fixed the peek a boo issues.

I'm 5'10, 145lbs, 36DD so I ordered the 4L and 6L. They both fit perfectly, but I ended up wearing the 6L. The 4L showed a little too much cleavage and was a tad tight on my butt. The 6L was perfect with just enough wiggle room to eat and dance the night away. I didn't have to use any double-sided tape, the dress stayed perfectly all night. I had to buy some 1" heels because my usual 3" heels were too tall. This was my first time renting from RTR and I will def be renting again. 

The stylist was great and pulled all desert colors for dresses for me to try as the event was in Scottsdale AZ. I wouldn't have ever chose this on my own to try-on and I'm so happy about my consult and the advice. I made a sophisticated memorable impression which was what I wanted. Thank you!

Great fit. The length was perfect for my height and the slit was high but not too much. The straps were a bit long and the dress definitely needs an iron or steaming before wear. Would purchase again and again.

Beautiful dress, but felt uncomfortable most of the night. Had to keep applying double sided dress tape because the top was SO loose. Safety pinned the straps in the back to shorten them, but that wasn't even really helping. 
Overall stunning, received many compliments, gorgeous.... just have to be so careful the whole time wearing it with how you sit, bend over , etc. 

It was a beautiful dress - definitely needs LOTS of fashion tape if you have a large chest. Looks very expensive. Way too long even with 4 inch heels and dress dragged a ton and got stepped on. Otherwise, a beautiful formal, summery look.

I really wanted to love this Belle dress straight out of my childhood dreams, but the chest area just couldn't fit right. As other reviewers have noted, it isn't adjustable, and I just couldn't get it to look appropriate. 

I wore the 2L size in this dress. It was simply gorgeous and I got a million compliments. This was my first time renting and I will definitely be doing it again. 

The 4 was definitely too big. The 2 fit well, but I had to finesse the top with a lot of fashion tape because it was really loose. Someone with a larger chest probably would have been totally fine. The length was perfect - the bottom of the dress just barely brushed the ground with the shoes I wore. I recommend steaming it (carefully) before wearing. I ended up not wearing spanx because the fabric is so thin that you can see pretty much everything through the dress. Plus, the slit is so high that most spanx would show through that on the leg. Overall I loved it though!! Really a beautiful dress.

The wrap detail at the waist made the fit of this dress very flattering. I saw other reviews mention the fact that the straps were a bit too long, but personally I thought they were perfect! The dress was quite wrinkly when it arrived, but thankfully I was able to steam the wrinkles out pretty easily. Fashion tape was very necessary for this dress and was a bit difficult to get to lay smoothly, but after some trial and error I made it work. I loved this dress so much I was sad to send it back!

I would 100% rent this dress again, I LOVED it! I'm usually a 6L but I ended up wearing the 8L because the 6 was hugging my butt. The front is low cut but sexy and elegant even for girls with big boobs like myself. Could not say enough wonderful things about this dress!!

I have a 34 DD chest, so I wore the 6. My main complaint was that - even with a judicious amount of styling tape - the top did not stay put. There were a couple of close calls that made me really uncomfortable. I'd still recommend it, though, just be prepared. 
Pros: color was great, style was definitely classic but the slit made it fun, and it was breezy and cool. 
Cons: I am 5'3", so the slit was almost up to my hip, and the issue with the top. 

This dress was amazing. I am usually a size 6 but wore the 4 because the straps were a bit shorter and made the top more flattering. I am 5'8' and the long was perfect with some 2.5-inch heels. Be warned, the slit it pretty high and I'm not sure what kind of underwear you would be able to wear under it without it showing through the silky fabric. I got so many compliments on this dress- I wish I could wear it every day!

The straps were long and the front gaped a bit, but that was easily fixed with fashion tape. The slit helped the dress move and flow easily. I am 5'3'' and with four inch heels it was the perfect length. I loved the golden yellow color, and it was overall just a perfect dress and I would definitely rent it again.

This dress is beautiful and very flattering with the low cut, loose fit, and high slit. The sizing is very off in my opinion. I'm 5'7", wore 4 inch heels and normally wear a size 6; the 4R was too large in the bust, but too short on me. I made it work and it was still a lovely dress, but the sizing was very odd, so be warned when ordering!

I received so many compliments in this gown and had so much fun dancing in it! The dress runs a little big, especially for us flat-cheated gals. I should have chosen the 2R as my back up. Be ready to apply some double sided tape and no bra, but super comfortable! 

Most beautiful dress ever! Very Kate Hudson, How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days. It was a little long and dragged a bit but not too bad (I'm 5'4 and wore three inch heels). I have a small bust but the top and straps still fit, just used a little tape to secure everything. Slit is a bit high but everything falls beautifully! Difficult to wear undergarments with as the fabric shows lines. Highly recommend this dress for any formal events! 


I loved this dress from the beginning but holy cow, she took some work to get it right. I have a decent bust and the chest was still too big. I ended up using yellow ribbon to tie the straps together under my hair to hike up the bust. Then I started with a strapless bra but ended up ditching it since I couldn't hide it all the way even with boob tape. Bra-less with boob tape and ribbon in the back were essential for this dress. I loved it regardless ! 

Too big from the waist up, too tight from the waist down!! Overall beautiful dress but DEFINITELY made for people with larger breasts. I ended up having to tie up the back so the straps wouldn't just completely fall off!! In a sea of red, champagne, black, and blue dresses I stood out like belle at the ball for my senior prom!

Wore this for a wedding in Cuba, I got loads of compliments! Everyone was calling me a modern Bell (beauty and the beast). I wore an 8 and thank god I did because there was no stretch at all and I am very curvy. It shows ALOT so as long as your are confident and not in a very windy place you will be good to go! Color and material is beautiful :)

This was my backup dress, but I loved it much more than I expected. It was very elegant. I got so many compliments and felt amazing. It ran large, at first I thought it was too loose to wear, but it draped well and didn't end up looking to big. I couldn't wear any bra and the dress provided no support because it was so loose, so luckily I am small chested and it worked fine for me. I would recommend ordering your back up size a size smaller in case you need the extra support. Despite the side slit being very high, it is very subtle so I didn't feel like it was too revealing for a formal event. I don't normally wear yellow, but loved the color. Overall I loved this dress and would definitely rent again.

Absolutely loved this dress! I wore it to my senior ball and got so many compliments!! Top is large and straps are long so be cautious about flashing people but such a nice fabric and great color 

Despite the simple design of this dress the color makes it stand out among the crowd. The straps were way too long so I pinned them in the back. Besides that, the fit was true to size. Loved it and received numerous compliments. 

I rented this for my school's annual awards banquet. I felt like a princess in it. I was a little nervous, considering I'm so busty, but the 10 fit like a dream. If my heels were any higher, I would have probably wanted a tall (I'm 5'5" the heels were 3.5"). I'm glad I splurged and got it! There's a lot of room in the bust and everything still fell well. I'm a 34 DDD, so this was a genuine concern in fit!

One negative with the dress was that the straps were soooooo long and I felt like I was going to fall out for most of the night. Fashion tape is a must. I also pinned the straps discreetly into a racerback, which helped a lot. Be careful what underwear you wear, too! The slit went to my hip crease so I was constantly making sure my dress was in order and I wasn't flashing anyone.

Beautiful dress! Got told 10+ times that I looked like Belle from Beauty and the Beast. Size runs large, especially in chest area. Ordered a 6L and definitely should have gotten a 4L instead. Overall, beautiful and eloquent dress for a formal event!

Absolutely loved this dress! The color is even prettier in person. Warning: it runs large, especially in the top, but with some fashion tape I made it work! Received so many compliments all night long. The slit is gorgeous and is a real show stopper. 

i rented this in a 6r as my backup for junior prom and i ended up wearing my other dress, but this was so gorgeous that i had such a hard time deciding. i am usually in between a 4 and a 6, 4 being too small and 6 being too big, but since my hips are a little wide i think the 4 would've been too uncomfortable. the fabric is incredibly silky and the color is a lot more vibrant in person, but since it is so smooth & light every line & color underneath shows so dark, lacy underwear is a no-go. the straps are a little long, but my bust filled it out pretty okay. i wish i had another event to wear this to!

I ordered both the 12L and 10L for prom, but sadly the 12L was damaged by the previous renter so instead rtr sent a new style to replace it. I tried on the 10L and it fit, the dress is really long, I'm 5'7 and even with 4in heels I had to hold it up when I walked so I didn't trip. Everyone else complained about the top but since I'm a 36-38C I didn't have any problems with the top slipping, I just had to use fashion tape to hold my boobs in lol. The middle is fitted so if you have a lil belly like I do it will show, so maybe wear spanx if you want a more "smoother" look. The slit in the dress was around mid thigh, so it wasn't too high for me. The color is really pretty and looked good against my skin tone, I got compliments all night for how good I looked.  PS. WEAR BLACK UNDERWEAR THE DRESS IS SEE THROUGH A BIT. 

This dress made me feel very beautiful, the only thing I would change is the bust area. I had to clip the straps together in the back. Other than that, I highly recommend this dress for a formal event!

I wore the 2R, but probably needed the 2 short. I have a very small chest so I had to get a bra clip to pull the straps together in the back. The length was a tad too long but pulling the strap in and my heels helped a little more! I'm 5"2 and 32 a/b but everything else was perfect and received so many compliments!!

Gorgeous gown. LOVED IT!!!! The only downfall was I probably should have ordered the dress in long as I am 5'9 and it was a little short with my heels. Also, be careful of the slit- its pretty high!!!
