Perfectly Appropriate
Size worn: 6
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Wedding
very nice cut, well lined, skirt and sleeve length ideal for a 'conservative' but stylish look. love the boat neck collar as well. the material really is unique and beautiful. runs a little tight in the bust vs. hips, proportionately (could have done a 4 in body, but 6 in bust).

I felt so elegant in this dress. The material is rich and a little stretchy so you can move. I wore it for a fundraiser for our Veterans. Was a great match for me.

Very classy, but not perfect fit.
Size worn: 8
Overall fit: Small
Rented for: Formal Affair
I'd say this runs small. I usually wear a 6, but I could tell just by looking at the 6 it was too small. So I wore the 8 and while it fit it didn't fit my curves pefectly like I would have liked it to. The dress is gorgeous and I love the print. It was something different than wearing just a LBD. I liked it, but don't think I would rent it again due to fit. Also, it is cotton so it did wrinkle. I had to spray with wrinkle releaser.

Great fit, not too snug thru hips. I wore this dress for a pre-wedding party and it was a perfect mix of fun and sexy while still being conservative enough for a wedding event.

Perfect print. Fits well. I am size 12 and it was very flattering. I wore it for a new art exhibition opening and got few compliments. I did not wear a necklace with it.
Gave only 4stars as the dress shows signs of wear.

Beautiful dress!
Size worn: 6
Overall fit: Small
Rented for: Wedding
Wore this dress for a wedding. The description is accurate, this is for a more narrow body. Even though I'm a size 2, I wore a 6 to accommodate for my hips and butt. Still, this was one I was so sad to send back.

STYLIST REVIEW
Size worn: 4
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Wedding
This dress is so feminine. I love the silhouette that this dress gives the body. I was surprised how true to size this dress was as Lela Rose can run on the smaller side! The fabric is so lovely, and there is slight stretch to it. The cotton material makes for an amazing style for a day wedding! Loved it!

Stunning dress but slightly weird fit

Dress looked stunning except at the back where it rode up and formed a weird fold right above the bum. Seems like it would wrinkle if worn all night, but I overall loved the dress.

Size worn: 4
Overall fit: True to Size

FIT: I usually wear a 4 or a 6. RTR was rented out of size 6 for the weekend, so I went with the 4 and it fit perfectly.
COLOR: Such a pretty color blue/purple in the floral top that pops in pictures. Got so many compliments wearing it!
...above all -- it was so comfortable to wear for the day/night!

The dress was comfortable and perfect for an afternoon fall wedding, outside and then in!
Size worn: 12
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Wedding
The dress fit snuggly but was perfect for the wedding. I think it is a true 12 , I'm just a little heavier than I used to be! It was an outdoor wedding on Sept 29th so it was nice to have the sleeves, and yet once inside I was also comfortable for dancing and dinner with the family.

Loved this dress! Unfortunately, it did not fit my body shape. I usually wear a size 8 but this size 8 was small on top. I am a 34D and have wide shoulders. Although I did not try it out, I believe that the 10 would have fit just right.

The dress is as amazing as it is in the picture!
Size worn: 8
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Formal Affair
The fabric was wonderful and the print is so stunning! However, I did not end up wearing this dress, I chose my back up dress. They did not have the size 6 that I wanted and the 8 that I got was too big. It was a lot roomier in the thighs and hips than I expected it to be. I am definitely a pear shape body type and was nervous to order a dress with this style. But it was very true to size if not a little bit bigger. I am going to try to order it again for another occasion down the road and hopefully they have the 6!

I absolutely loved this dress and got so many compliments.
Size worn: 4
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Wedding
Overall, I think it fit okay. The length was great. I found it odd it was a tight fit around my chest - I'm a 34B and very rarely have that problem. It was tight around my hips but I have wide hips and a "full" butt. It was very loose around my stomach area - it was fine standing up but when you sit down it looked liked I had a huge roll but I just put my napkin over it. The pattern and material was amazing.

It fit like a glove! I did not find this dress to be as small as other reviewers noted, with one exception: the arms are snug. They are not so snug as to make it too tight though, just fitted. I wore this dress to a bridesmaid luncheon and got endless compliments. Thanks, RTR!

Attended a wedding brunch in a country-club type atmosphere and I really raised the bar for event. This is an 'I'm a sexy grown-up...a lady...an impress-the-parents-and-be-taken-seriously-but-be-noticed-as-a-girly girl' type dress.
The cotton material surprised it and the fit does not have much give, so rent this true to size. And be careful, this dress will make you disappointed that all dresses do not come with these fabulous length sleeves - most flattering!

The dress is beautiful on top, the boat neck is very flattering but don't rent it unless you have a FLAT as a pancake stomach! Mostly because of the floral design, optical illusion of sorts. The design stops at the lower stomach and pelvis. Black recedes and white pops forward which means your lower stomach and pelvis can be very obvious in this dress, since it has no give. Great sitting down only dress or put your purse in front of your stomach dress.

I wore this for my law school graduation with a pair of mint colored heels. . . Couldn't have asked for a better combo. It is a bit long though, but I just taped up the hem and it wasn't a problem. Amazing dress, great fit. I didn't want to send back, will definitely rent again!

Everyone LOVED this dress on me. It fit true to size. Easy to wear & elegant. I liked the fabric - soft and sort of stretchy. I wore Spanx but really didn't need to - the dress was form fitting but not too tight. A great rental overall!

Figure flattering, but conservative. Was able to dance with no dress issues in the slightest. Arms fit rather snug (which was ultimately a good thing). Overall a really lovely dress. I would definitely rent this again. Especially perfect for a family wedding, or family oriented day formal/cocktail event.

I think the dress is great. The background color was a little gray/white instead of being a white or cream. But the blues in the dress were lovely splashes of color. The dress fit exactly as represented. The dress hit me about 2 inches above the knee-so it wasn't too short for a wedding.I think the dress could be worn spring, summer and fall. In fact, I just reordered it for a fall wedding!

Nicely fitted with just a bit of stretch. Pretty boat-neck collar. Was a little long on me-- if I owned the dress I'd take it up so it hits above the knee-- but otherwise fit beautifully and garnered lots of compliments. Elegant, unique, an understated standout.

This dress fit great but it does wrinkle in the front after sitting for a while so you have to try to smooth it over throughout the night.
