Agree with the other reviews - this dress runs SMALL, size up! and the zipper is a little hard to work. With that said I am IN LOVEEEE with this dress. This was my favorite piece from my first 4 unlimited shipment & I usually don't like neutral colored clothes but this dress is so elegant and the material is high quality/ thick. Super tempted to purchase. 

The material is somewhat compressing, and makes me feel/look skinny. Wore this to the office and it looked great. I'm in between a 2 and 4, and it was a little tight but kinda sexy without being inappropriate. Assumetrical neck line provides "peek a boo" effect. 

Overall, love this dress for many reasons. When the reviews stated to size up once (or twice, even), I   listened. Ironically, my size up became unavailable at the last minute, so RTR nicely awarded me an alternate. I   ended up going with this, my original pick, anyway. I   would say that I   agree this runs tight, but I   feel it's still true to size. Love the thick material, deep blue color, and the asymmetric neckline. I    also love that it has sleeves because I   don't love my arms. I   also am 7 months postpartum, so the thick material hides any lower-abomen issues well.  I   got compliments from men and women of all ages. This was for a Catholic wedding with a semi-formal reception, so I   feel the dress was perfectly suited for the day. As the reviews stated, the zipper is stubborn, so I   did need help with this (cue husband.) Wore a strapless bra, but it stayed in place due to the hugging fit of the dress (literally never had to tug or adjust my bra over a 10 hour period). Should wear seamless or a barely-there underwear. 

Like all the other reviews, this dress is SKIN TIGHT. They didn't have my backup size 10 so I took a chance on the 8. Basically couldn't breathe but I got it on somehow by some miracle. The material has a tiny bit of stretch and is very thick so it actually smooths you out very well without needing spanx. I wore this to a work dinner for my husband. I felt very classy and elegant without being over dressed. I added the belt for fun. Overall awesome dress. Very flattering for the curves! 

Incredible fit--very slimming, but does run a little small. I usually wear a size 2, but wore a 4 in this dress. Neckline detail ads some flair, and color is a great basic navy. Love his dress, will absolutely rent again!

Wore this to a networking event at a work conference. Perfect for a day to night look- professional yet chic. Paired with some shapewear for an ultra slim silhouette.

This dress was perfect for my work conference. It was comfortable, stylish, work appropriate and moved with your body. I will be renting this again!

I am a museum director, and wore this to present to 130 people for a fundraising gala. Fits like a glove. I normally wear a 0-2, and the 2 fit perfect. I received compliments all night, and felt very great in it. Easy to dress up or down. I had a question about return shipment, and received a fast response from customer service. My first RTR, and will definitely be a returning customer! 

I wore this for my professional headshots and it looked amazing! I usually wear a 4 or 6 but I couldn't even zip the 4. Runs a bit small. You won't be disappointed with this dress! 

Love this dress. I would have bought it if it was a size bigger. It runs small and a 4 barley fit around my hips. Other than that it's awesome. 

Dress runs small and material is thick. I sized up 2 dress sizes to ensure I could have some movement. Great material and received loads of compliments! 

Rented this dress onsite for a work event and wished this could be our uniforms onsite. Was super sleek and professional. Material was a nice weight but was definitely a little tight up top. So if you have larger boobs would recommend sizing up. But the dress fit perfectly other than that.

I received many compliments on the dress. It does run really tight in the chest and hips, so I recommend sizing up. #work

Beautiful neckline, nice thick material and good length. It was snug though. I'm usually a 2 and the size 4 barely fit.  

I wore this to a board meeting. I felt so stylish yet appropriately conservative for work. I got compliments all day long. It fit so well that I had to make this one mine, so I bought it! It does run small especially at the top, so if you have broad shoulders (like me) order one size up. I first ordered a 2 and it fit everywhere except zipping to the top. The 4 fit perfectly. 

This was a great dress! Very comfortable, classy and sexy at the same time!

I loved the unique neckline, which is what drew me to the dress in the first place. The shape of the dress is perfect for those who want to show off an hourglass shape. I LOVED the length! It's incredibly elongating which is always a plus (short girls beware since this is supposed to hit below the knee - it could end up being too long and having the opposite effect). 

I wore this for my sister's rehearsal dinner and received lots of compliments. I would definitely rent this again. I ended up wearing the 8 which was a tad snug in the hips, but the 10 was too large all over. I'm 5' 10", 150 lbs., 36D, 29" waist, 40" hips

Definitely runs small and hugs every curve. It was very comfortable though. 

I rented this for an awards gala for work. The length and short sleeves kept things professional despite the skin tight fit. My regular size was snug, but sizing up led to extra fabric bunching in the back/waist, and the thickness of the dress made it so the dress wasn't unflattering even though it was snug.

I will mention that I got this dress about an hour before I had to leave for my event due to issues shipping my order (3 days late). I strongly recommend renters track their shipments closely as RTR does not communicate with you if your order is late (I was getting emails to return the dress before it even arrived!). And always have a backup dress at home just in case. This dress was gorgeous and I'd recommend it to others but it was a really tense afternoon waiting to see if it'd show up on time!

Fit runs a full size small but it looks amazing on. Great length for a work or cocktail event. Shape and cut of the dress is great 

Wore this for a work convention.   Moves easy.  Doesn't wrinkle when you sit for long periods of time.   Will definitely rent this again.  Size up.  Would love to own this dress.  

Definitely snug and has a little stretch, but not much. It's also the type of dress you can't can't long strides in...but the fit is so flattering. I like dresses that are fitted throughout, and this one was perfect. 

A little tight so you might want to size up. Overall I loved the cut of this dress and got a lot of compliments.

Beautiful dress, great neckline. I typically wear a 0 or 2 and the 4 fit perfectly. I recommend sizing up at least one size, if not two sizes.  I wore this to a holiday party for my husbands work and it was very tasteful but also flattering and fun. 

This dress fit like a glove without being over the top sexy. Definitely form fitting, but the length and sleeve compensate and give you just the right balance of tasteful and playful. Would have kept if I could; will definitely rent again!

I thought the dress fit tight but it has a lot of stretch to it. Definitely a show stopper- elegant, classic lines

This dress was beautiful. Loved the cut of the top, runs small . 

Fit like a glove and hugged in all the right places. It has a unique neckline and high quality fabric. It was super appropriate for work because of the midi length. I got many compliments! I would definitely rent it again. 

I rented this for my Med school graduation. Like the other reviews say, it's tight, but that's how it's supposed to fit! The material is thick and forgives many lumps and bumps (no shape wear). I'm between a 4, 6 so I rented the 6,8 for backup. 8 was HUGE on top and bunched even on my athletic build so I went with the six. Both zippers are challenging and stick a little but soon forgiven once you see how curvy and great your shape looks in this dress. Would rent again 100%. 

I am normally a size 0 and ordered a size 2 and it was WAY TOO TIGHT. I loved the dress so much I am going to try it in a Size 4 if it is available for my next Unlimited order. Definitely order up a size or two on this one.

Hugged my curves perfectly. I am usually a size 4 or 6, with a 34DD chest, and the 8 fit like a glove. I recommend sizing up. 

Rented for a work party, it looked good on, fit in the hips, was maybe not quite as fitted in the bust and waist. Didn't end up wearing because I liked another dress a little better, but it's a great dress. It is fitted though, size up if you want it to not fit to the body, although I think that's the purpose of the dress and most of the dresses in this line 

Loved this dress. I typically wear a 4 and this dress was snug in a 6. Love the maxi length and interesting cutout on the chest that gave it a little extra something! Wore it to work but can be worn anywhere. Nice thick fabric. Will rent it again. 

I followed the advice of other reviewers and went one size up. I should've gone 2 sizes up. I had to hold my breath to zip it up but the temporary loss of oxygen was worth it! It hugs you in all the right places and the length makes it appropriate for work. Will rent again in a size 8.

I love this dress. It is really flattering and stylish on. With that said, I'm usually a 6/8 (more 8 than 6) and I wore a 10 and the 10 was still bodcon. Definitely size up 1-2 sizes. I contemplated buying it I liked it so much. I got tons of compliments. Wear your Spanx!

This dress is elegant and beautiful!  It's tight in the chest so I couldn't wear a bra but it was otherwise fit perfectly.  I highly recommend it for any professional setting and wish I owned it!

Overall, I would rent this again. Was sexy but conservative at the same time. My husband thought I looked great in it and I wore to a theater show. 

A few things to know before you rent. First, this is a very tight fitting dress. I'd consider sizing up if you have any curves, including hips. I normally wear a 4 and squeezed into the 4 but just barely. The fit through the waist is very tight, as is the fit through the hips. 

Second, it is very difficult to walk in if you have a large walking stride. Just prepare to walk with short steps and slower. It hits past knees and is pretty narrow and tight through legs. It has a small back slit but that didn't seem to help. 

Finally, the material is more like a thicker matte cotton, not really what I expected but it was still a pretty dress. I do think these dresses looked a little more worn that previous dresses I have rented. It might look more worn because the material it is made from doesn't hold up with multiple dry cleanings. 

Overall I rated the dress highly as it did look good on me. 

I rented this dress for a recent work event.  It has a classic style and worked well for an event that had people dressed down and dressed up.  The dress is a nice thicker material, and I really liked it.  I am so glad I read the reviews and ordered up.  I am typically a 0 in RTR orders.  I ordered a 2 and 4 and went with the 4.  Even that had a snug fit.  All in all, it worked out great and was a perfect dress for the occasion. 

Runs small, I am usually a 4 and wore a 6.

I didn't love this dress as much as I wanted to. It's very narrow in the hips, making it hard to size for us hourglass and pear-shaped ladies. I ordered a size up, but it still ended up fitting very tightly in the hips and kind of baggy in the waist. Overall it looked fine, but definitely didn't have quite the effect I was looking for. 

I got the size 4 and squeezed into it. I should have listened to everyone who posted reviews and gotten the size 6. I'm normally a size 6. I wore this to a "celebration of life" party to honor someone who had passed away. I also wore to work! 

Rented this to speak at a conference. Nice navy color and heavy fabric. I'm almost always a size 6, but I had to size up in this dress. The 8 was still snug. I had trouble pulling the zipper up over the empire waistband; I had to spin the dress around to the front to zip part of it and then spin it back. If you're not feeling confident about your belly or hips, I recommend Spanx. The dress is long and tight, which made it hard to walk up stairs without hiking it up a bit. Also a bit tight in the arms. I was able to wear a regular bra with no problem. Nice dress, but definitely snug!

Couldn't agree more with everyone commenting on how small this dress runs. I am usually a 0-2 and the 4 worked but was still snug. It's an awesome dress though, I got tons of compliments!

The fabric is nice and thick which made for smooth lines; there is some stretch but not enough to accommodate fuller hips without sizing up. Optional black tie event and I didn't feel underdressed. Probably a more ideal dress for ladies with a more narrow hip than mine- often dresses are either too tight in my hips or too loose on top. Had I gone any larger size wise the shoulders and chest/ribs would've been too loose. Overall it was a great rental but it was hard to take big steps on account of the tight hips. Athletic narrower hipped gals this is the dress for you! 

Never really loved a dress this long but this stress is absolutely stunning and sophisticated. I wish it was a royal blue instead of so dark but very elegant and perfect for work. The fit is stunning. 

As a gal with a pear shape, sheath dresses don't usually work. However, this dress was incredibly slimming and sleek. I loved wearing it! The dress runs very small. I'm usually a 0/2 but the 4 was almost too tight to get over my hips. This dress is long and wouldn't work for petite gals (I'm 5'8" and it was almost too long for me). Overall, super dress.
