True to size - waist is fitted so no give but wore size 4 and fit perfectly.. received lots of compliments throughout event 

Needed something conservative for a black tie synagogue wedding and this was perfect. The pockets made it even better! Easy dress to dance in and looks cute ☺️ 

Dress looks better when on. There is no stretch so make sure to size up if not sure. Perfect dress for an outdoor wedding. 

I've rented gala gowns from RTR for a decade now and this might be my favorite yet. It's stunning - like wearing a work of art - the colors are vibrant and beautiful. I got tons of compliments and felt great all night. It's very comfortable and you can't go wrong with a gown with pockets. I'd buy this if I could. Really a perfect gown for a formal affair. It fits true to size - I ordered this and the size up and didn't even open the larger size once I tried the first. 

Very pretty, very flattering. And who doesn't love pockets? With heels the dress sat at just the right length for me, even after transferring to flats it was a good length. I didn't wear a bra with it since it's a strapless dress with a sheer overlay and felt comfortable.

Loved this dress because it has a nice thick lining that laid perfectly and kept my legs warm. It's easy to wear (no bra or shapewear needed) and I got so many compliments! 

Comfortable dress, a bit heavy bottom but was warm on a cold evening, has pockets!

This dress was so pretty! The 8 was a little tight  but I think a 10 would have been too big but the ribbon belt has no give!! Wore a 2 inch heel and it just skimmed the floor.   

Runs slightly small. I am usually an 8 but the 10 fit just right. 

Got so many compliments, this dress was truly beautiful. I’m a bit short so needed to wear heels otherwise it would have been too long. 

I got two dresses and this one was by far my favorite. It got tons of compliments on it from people at the wedding and other random strangers, it was sweet! You feel rather luxurious in it because the fabric is heavier than it looks. I wore it without a bra, it was slightly snug on my waist but it was easy to wear and I could’ve worn it for longer! It also has pockets :)

I absolutely loved it! Great quality, beautiful fabric and so comfortable.  Plenty of boning up top so no bra needed.  First time renting and will definitely do it again!

This dress was very comfortable. It fit well (a little large in the bust). The pockets were an added plus. The dress itself is strapless. The overlay is sheer. 

It's actually a thicker material than it looks on this model. There's a satin. jacquard underskirt that helps the chiffon overlay not stick to your body so it's super flattering because the dress really holds it's shape/ doesn't form to all of your curves etc. I'd recommend sizing down if you're btw sizes. 
Great dress for anyone looking for neck & chest coverage!

This gown was great for the black tie optional wedding I just attended! The description says it’s black, but I swear it’s navy! I bought black shoes and a black shrug to accessorize and when the gown arrived I was surprised they didn’t work with the NAVY dress! I wore gold sandals and they looked great with it. Didn’t need a sweater/shrug layer because it was a warm night and the lining of the dress is very thick and warm. It’s kind of a double knit stiff fabric, about 1/8” thick. The lining gives the dress a nice structure, but it may be too warm for some. My last point is that it runs small. Thank goodness I ordered a 6 (my usual size 90% of the time) and 8. I could not even zip up the back of the 6, from the waist and up!! I measure 35.5” around the bust and there was no hope of closing the 6! The size 8 fit me well. I got many compliments!

Beautiful dress with pockets, but I misjudged the reviews and it was too tight across the top. I would have ordered the second size as an 8c but it was out of stock.
