This was true to size and very comfortable.  I received so many compliments and the color was amazing.  Absolutely perfect for an April evening wedding celebration.  No special undergarments required.  I also rented the jewelry shown on the RTR model.  The whole ensemble was so put-together.  I felt like a million bucks!  Highly recommend!

top around bust could be a potential issue (have double sided tape just in case) 

Very high quality dress-beautiful colors, comfortable.

Wore this to a gala in the spring and had the best time!  The colors are gorgeous and so cheerful, the cut very flattering.  It ran true to size for me in the skirt... as other reviews have said the top was a bit generous for me, but nothing bad enough to derail the fun.  

I rented this for my college reunion dinner.  I normally wear a size 4, but that wasn't available.  I got the size 2 hoping it would fit based on other reviews.  It did fit enough that I was able to wear it, but it was definitely tight through the hips and sitting wasn't the easiest.  A 4 would have been better for the hips, but would have been too big in the chest (the 2 was almost too big up top).  The colours are fabulous.  It's a nice, classy silhouette, but the colours and the poofy bow thing give it some fun, playfulness. 

I typically wear a size 4 but the 2 fit me best. I rented this for dinner at a fancy restaurant. I wanted something classy and fun. This definitely fit the bill. I loved the bright color which added some whimsy to a more conservative silhouette. The fit wasn't perfect as the bottom was a little snug and the top a bit big. I had to apply some double stick tape on top so as not to expose my bra, but it was no big deal.I'm sure this dress would work better on someone with a larger chest. I would certainly recommend this dress though. I loved it.

Clearly your party!  This dress makes you shine. 

Loved this dress! I wore it to my Bridal Shower & this dress stole the show! It fit my bust (DD) with ease and only had to be pinned closed to keep things under control. It fit great and very true to size. I paired it with the Old Hollywood Glamour Bracelet, Golden Girls Earrings & the Gilded Royalty Cluth for the day, and switched into the Gold Digger Earrings to jazz it up for a birthday party later that night. I got a ton of compliments and wish I owned this dress! 

This dress was a hit.  I wore it to a friends wedding and received multiple compliments throughout the night.  Most of the girls wore black so there was nothing quite like this dress. The color works very well on girls of a tanned/ olive/ dark complexion such as myself.  The fabric is beautiful and the cut of the dress highlighted my curves and minimized my stress points (tummy).  I didn't even need a spanx. Ha! 
I headed the warnings from other reviewers and ordered the smaller size which a risk because it was the only size available.  
Like other reviewers I too found challenges with the straps.  There were small pin marks inside the dress from others who obviously found the same challenges.  I basically pined my bra into the dress and didn't have to worry the entire night although I highlighted my cleavage more than I am used to,  the dress was well received. 
A Note about the shoe option:  This dress is worthy of gold strappy heels or a nude peep-toe pump. 
Shipping was a breeze.  It was my first rent but certainly wont be the last. 

I absolutely loved the color, the fabric, and the very slimming cut of the dress! It made for a stand-out look that was at once sexy and classy, flirty and fun but not attention-grabbing.  It is of excellent quality and very well-made. I was disappointed that the strings/snaps sewn under the sleeves that are meant to secure bra straps were broken; I had to occasionally tuck away my straps throughout the night. As other reviewers have noted, the dress is somewhat low-cut. I would've felt more comfortable if I had heeded others' advice and used a little double-sided tape.

This dress is so cute!  I wore it to a summer wedding, and got tons of compliments!  It fit really well, although the top was a little "off".  I noticed that it had been tacked down - not originally made that way.  Because I have a large chest (36DD) the tacking looked - well, tacky - and eventually pulled apart.  The dress looked better after the tacking came undone, with the exception that it showed my bra!  Fortunately I wore a sweater so I could cover it until I could sneak away to the ladies room...and I always carry safety pins and a sewing kit in my purse, so I was able to pin the top back together so that it covered my bra.  It actually looked BETTER when I pinned it than when it was sewed (it was obviously sewn together for a smaller chested woman).  At any rate, as cute as it is, the top DEFINITELY needs help!  You either need to pin it or sew it together in order to wear this dress - I don't see it being worn any other way unless you want to put the girls on display!  Nonetheless, the fabric is gorgeous, the color is stunning, and it really is a pretty dress.  It just needs a lot of help on the top!  Oh, and the bra stays on the straps need to be repaired as well - one was hanging by two threads, and the other wasn't even there - useless, and actually a really helpful component of this dress!  I recommend this dress for anyone who has confidence, and who knows how to "work" a low-cut dress!

Flattering dress and great coral color!  I did need to pin the bust to keep it closed but it looks like others did the same.  Very flattering if you have a tummy.

Worn this to a summer wedding.  The colors were beautiful and very vibrant.  Photographed very well and definitely stood out.  I normally wear a size 6 and have a large bust.  I had to wear the size 4 though (my extra size) because the 6 was too big in the bust and didn't look right.  The 4 was then too tight in the waist and hips and although it look okay I was pretty uncomfortable all night long.  The cut of the top of the dress needs to fit perfectly in the bust to look good - so that's the only thing I'd watch out for when considering to rent.

This dress was perfect for the summer wedding I attended. It was a little big in the bust but I tacked the straps up and it was fine. I loved the way I looked and got a lot of compliments. it hit right above the knee so it was comfortable for sitting, I was never worried about flashing too much. The fabric doesn't stretch so I ended up wearing the 12 because the 10 was tight in the hips. Overall a fun, flirty and tasteful  dress!

I am a curvy girl. I can wear anywhere from an 8-12. I needed the 12 and it was still snug in the bust. I had to wear a thin bra to make it work. It was also fitted in the hip area but not uncomfortably so.  There is no give to the fabric and I would say it runs small. It is a striking dress that turned a lot of heads. I would rent it again.

The dress did tend to gap a bit in the front, but some fashion tape helped with that.

I couldn't use the dress cause it was too small, but in all honesty my size wasn't available and I decided to wing it!  I could see though that it would of fit beautifully and the fabric and color is just wonderful.

The fit was great yet the straps are a bit loose. 

I'm a hip-y, curvy girl. The 12 was snug, and didn't allow for any wiggle room. Although with spanx, it made it comfort because the fabric could slip and slide. The colors were beautiful! I did need to pin the top together, otherwise the girls would have spilled out! The stomach had a great fit, the only tightness was at the sides. What a great dress! 

Love it. The neckline is a bit deeper than I thought, but the fashion tape that was included helps. I'm small chested but I needed the tape to keep the top from opening too much. Sizing was accurate. I'm normally an 8 and the 8 was a good fit. The 10 I also ordered was much too large.

A very pretty dress. The photos do not do it justice. 

I love this dress!  I got so many compliments and I definitely stood out.  It runs true to size and gave me plenty of room in the chest area, which I needed.  I'm sad to send it back.

This dress was stunning and I received numerous complements. It fit perfectly in the torso and butt areas, but was too large and loose in the top / bust area. I had to tack it up at the shoulders and pin it closed in order to make it fit properly. 

Gorgeous dress -- fit me perfectly.  It does run large.  I tend to be an 8 or a 10, and the 8 fit well (though I wish I would have asked for the 6 and not the 10 as my second size).  I am 5'6, and it's to the knee on me.

I was so excited to wear this dress for a wedding I atteneded. Unfortunately, the top did not fit my bust. I have a large bust, and although the top of this dress is rather roomy, there is no give in the fabric so I could not wear it without busting the seams. If you are larger than a DD, reconsider this dress.

That said, it was beautiful colors, the cut was nice, the length was appropriate for a wedding, and it looked amazing to wear. I was sad I couldn't wear this one. However, the people that work the customer service phones are awesome! I had a different dress by noon the day of the wedding and RTR saved the day!

I had to go up a size in this dress, however, when you do, the hem gets a little long. Great dress for a busty girl, as the top is made to fit a bigger bust size, and a small waist. Beautiful coloring, looks even better in the sun. 

The fit was perfect; the material was very nice.  Although the color was more red than it appeared on the screen, it was very pretty.  I felt this was a well made,  high quality dress.

I wore this dress to a symphony performance. The dress is beautifully designed, well structured, and comfortable. The fabric is just gorgeous - eye catching and fun.  The lining is as soft as can be. The straps have snaps sewn in at the shoulders to secure bra straps in place, making the dress no fuss. It runs large. If I rented again I would go a size down.  

This dress was a back up that RTR choose and sent me when my other back-up dress was not available because it was missing. I love, love, love it. It looks even better in person and the pattern and color are awesome. 

I tried it on, but didn't end up wearing it because it was about 2-3 sizes too big. I rented a 10 because I usually go up a size with my back-up, but when I rent this one again, I will probably go with a 6.

I adore this dress. It was stunning at the September wedding, where I wore it. The fabric is like a brocade- the orange and fuchsia blossoms look even better in person. It was large in the bust and must be safety pinned. I'm small chested and flashed my bra a lot without secure safety pins. The length was very appropriate. The color and cut of the dress got compliments the whole night. It makes you look tanner! Incredibly luxurious.

I ended up not wearing that dress b/c it was sent to me as a back up and it was way too big for me. I am usually a normal size 2, and RTR sent me a size 4 of that dress and it was so big, especially for the upper body part. I would have def. needed a size 0 or 2 for that particular dress! 

This was such a gorgeous dress to wear, and the bright pink and orange combination really brightens up your complexion, especially when you have a summer tan.  The only drawback with the dress is that it fit true to size in all areas except the bust.  I think a more well endowed renter would have better luck, unfortunately it didn't do much for my A cup bust, and ended up being lose on top, so had to tape it down.  Still beautiful though.  

i have a big chest and it was gapping open, I could have tacked it in two places but the rear was too tight to be comfortable. there was no 12 available. Love love the colors.

Like other reviewers said the top runs large and the bottom is true to size. I wore the 0 and did not have double sided tape on me so I was adjusting the top of the dress constantly. Other than that the dress was gorgeous!

This was my backup dress and I didn't wear it. From a color perspective the dress was very pretty. However the fit was not for me. I am tall and have a long torso, so it just may not have been the right cut. Also, the dress was very worn out and if it was my primary dress I would have called and requested something else. Also for me, the opening at the chest was too much. I am not overly modest, but I couldn't have worn this dress to a party.

I rented this dress for a wedding.. the colors were absolutely beautiful and the waistline was very flattering! I didn't wear it because the shoulder straps came up so high that I would have had to shrug my shoulders all night. I didn't have time to pin down the straps (or the equipment as I was already at my hotel).. but luckily I also rented a back up dress.  

WARNING!! This dress is extremely low cut. The 6 fit me perfectly in the bottom, but the straps are too long, so it gaps at the front, leaving your cleavage exposed. If I owned this dress, I would have them take up the straps, as I usually do and the fit would be perfect-sexy,not trashy. The colors are amazing and the dress is beautifully made. Normally, I wouldn't even rent a dress this expensive, but b/c of the storm my original NYE order was delayed, so RTR made up for it by giving me any dress as an exchange. Thank you!

This dress is beautiful and well made.  It would be great for a wedding.  If you are busty, definitely size up at least one size.  This dress fit beautifully everywhere except the bust which was a full size too small (for a 34G).

To be fair, I actually didn't choose to rent this dress. The back-up size for the dress I rented became unavailable and this was sent as a replacement. I did try in on and even with a size 32 G bra size it was too baggy on top. I don't think I would select this dress in the future, but I absolutely LOVE that RTR sent it to me as a back up just in case!!

 I am not at all shy, but showed way to much cleavage for a wedding.  Beautiful fabric and colors.   

I wore this dress to the Belmont Stakes, and for the occasion, it did the trick. It was an easy fit--true to size and quite comfortable. However, I have a relatively large bust, and even on me, the bust was a bit big. I had to pin it together to ensure there were no wardrobe malfunctions. I'm also short, and the dress (even with heels) fell just below the knee--a little longer than I typically wear. All that said, it was a fun experiment in style, texture and color for an afternoon at the races.
