I absolutely loved this dress but ended up wearing the back up size which was smaller.  Thanks to everyone that leaves reviews!  Material was gorgeous, and the size down fit me well.  I normally wear an 8 or 10 and wore the size 6 here.  I’m 5’6”, 148 lbs and a 34D/36C. The 6 was just a hair too large, but a solid padded bra did the trick.  Would rent again!

Beautiful and unique dress. Obsessed BUT way too long for my short self.

It ran true to size, the fabric felt like it was made for a Scottish royal, it was the perfect length, and people commented on it the entire event. I can’t remember the last time I felt that confident in what I was wearing!

It was a bit small in the chest for me, but most things are so it’s not unusual. 

Added a dupatta (scarf) and Indian jewelry to turn this into a Diwali dress fit for a host! Got a TON of compliments because the brocade material is so gorgeous. 

This dress was stunning, and everyone complimented me in it.  But if you rent this, make sure to wear great shapewear with a strapless top.  I failed to do that, so my bra kept poking out.  When I sat (because I didn't wear good shapewear), it billowed around my stomach.  I would rent again; the fabric is really great!

Gorgeous, heavy fabric! Beautiful fit, even with a broad rib cage. Managed to cut a rug without dress mishaps.

Very heavy some what stiff brocade. Fabric does not breathe. Strap position is hard to wear a bra with but the top is not structured enough to go without one. Length is good for a tall person in flats or a short one in heels. 

I sized up two sizes in this dress because it wasn’t available in a smaller size so part of it is my fault that the dress didn’t fit. It’s also not a true petite as you can see the chest/shoulder length is too large for a person of smaller stature. In talking to customer service, I found out that dresses labeled as petite on the site were typically just hemmed by seamstresses in house (not true petite with all measurements being adjusted). 

The fabric is thick and feels like good quality, or just wasn’t a way for me to wear this.

You will need a strapless bra.  I am between size 8 and 10 and the 8 fit great!  Received many compliments. It is very elegant.

Very comfortable, looked better in person! It worked well for a 1920s murder mystery party! A little long for me, I wore 3" heels and the dress was hitting the floor.

Wore this to a wedding and it was perfect

Super flattering and fun to wear. So long I had to wear 6" platforms and it was still beyond floor length.

I am usually a size 6 to 8 in lululemon. I am a medium in bottoms and a small in most tops. This dress fits well on the top portion and flows out past the waist. I have gained weight this year so it was nice to find something flattering. 

Wore to a western cocktail event 3 months postpartum! Structure and cut was super flattering and comfortable 

wore this dress to an adult prom at a museum, it fit the vibes so well and was very easy to love around in! fit slightly snug around the chest, but that is definitely not the dresses fault. 

I’m not sure what size I am after losing weight. I usually wear a size 10 pants but a size 8 top so I ordered a 10 and a 12. The 10 worked pretty well but I probably could have worn an 8. One important detail. I am 5’7” and this was so long on me. The only way I could make it wearable was with the highest heels I own. I had intended to wear flats but those were definitely not an option. 

As long as you’re aware of the very long length, this was a gorgeous dress. Beautiful fabric that looks even better in person. I’m considering buying it and just having it tailored to fit lengthwise. 

This dress was so beautiful! I’m usually a true size small/ 4 and it fit perfectly. The fabric was lovely and better quality than expected from the Lauren RL line. So many compliments and felt so chic and pretty in it! 

I received so many compliments on this dress! Top was very tight, while the length was rather long, but perfect for someone almost 5’ 9” with tall heels. Wore to a Mardi Gras even and the dress colors were perfect! 

Excellent dress for a black tie evening event. The petite was perfect with 3in heels (5ft4in) and just skimmed above the ground. 

I saw this dress and knew it would be perfect for our Mardi Gras ball. The 16 was too small in the bust but the backup size 18 fit well but was a little too big in the bust. We fixed it using some safety pins and a black scarf! Got tons of compliments! 

Beautiful high school quality dress but very long. I’m over 5’7” and I needed 3 inch heels. And it was still a little long. 

Wore a different dress, but I liked the color an fit. Fabric is pretty thick though

Wore this to a Masquerade and it was perfect! Pockets are always a plus and it was elegant and secure

I wish I took more photos in the dress but it fit me well. I’m usually an 8 but went down a size with the 6. I received a lot of compliments and felt comfortable and elegant in the dress all night long. 

Very beautiful print and material! However, if you have a large bust, I recommend sizing up. I am a 38DDD & it would have fit with a strapless bra, but it didn’t look good at all! I had those awkward rolls under my armpits (hope that makes sense). I went braless and the underarm roll problem went away. I also felt like the dress straps are too long. I still got a lot of compliments throughout the evening! 

I loved this dress. Worn 10 weeks post partum so I sized up 1 size. 

I received so many compliments on this gown. I did have to size up because the material has no stretch. But the quality of the fabric is great, which is why it is not stretchy. My boobs are bigger (DDD), so I unfortunately had to leave the zipper down halfway, otherwise if I closed it up, my cleavage would be waaaaaay too revealing for a wedding (the closed fit was a small synched waist - very Victorian style). But this is a bonus of the dress bc it has great support for boobs and really flatters your figure. I just bought a small cover up and it was no big deal. 

So beautiful- I have a short torso and most dresses have shoulder straps that are too long and this was slightly big in the straps area but otherwise perfect! I got a ton of compliments! 

I did need help zipping up and clasping the neck.  Lots of compliments!  Highly recommend!

This dress was EVERYTHING. I wore it to a black tie wedding and got so many compliments throughout the night. I'm about 5'6.5 and 190 lbs. I carry my weight fairly evenly, but with an average chest size. The 14 was a perfect fit for me. I tried the 16 too but it was too loose around the rib cage and the bust. 

It was exactly floor length without shoes. I had bought 2.5 inch heels and they made it look too short, so I switched to very low heels that were maybe an inch tall. 

This dress was so comfortable and not too heavy or too light. I wore a light purple shawl with it when I was outside that really brought out the purple in the pattern. Gold accessories made everything pop even more with the beautiful gold swirls throughout. Perfect for a fall wedding!

This dress is absolutely stunning! I ordered a 12 and 14 and the 12 fit me perfectly except the chest. The 14 was a bit big on my waist but still super super tight on my chest and just zipped. 

My first RTR! Ordered this dress for my husband’s “creative black tie” work event. I usually wear a 10 but the 12 fit best. A basic strapless bra worked perfectly. I’m 5’10” and wore 1.5” heals. It was perfect! 

Loved the fit of this dress! Accentuates curves and hides any midsection pooch. The pattern turned me off initially when I saw it on the hanger, but I just loved it on. 

The 12 would have fit perfectly if my chest was smaller.  Even the 14 had me smushed down a bit - couldn’t wear a bra but didn’t necessarily need one, just used tape to try to lift and offset the smushing.  Get your “backup” a size UP if you have a larger chest.

Overall a stunning dress that received many compliments!

I originally rented this dress in a 6 but the chest was too big. The 4 fit nicely.  Wore it to a black tie wedding.  Great dress to dance in. No spanx necessary!

Nice dress, has nice shape to it. I usually wear 4P and felt true to size. Was a tiny bit long but I only wore 2 inch heels and overall that was enough and was still manageable. 

I wore this to a fall black tie wedding and I adore the dress. I'm normally a 6 in regular clothing but the 4 fit better up top. Great quality fabric, lined, but not too heavy or warm. Heels are a must due to the length. I would love to wear this dress again.
