Marchesa Notte

I ordered the 12 because many items are right around my arms, but this one had no issues. I could have sized down but I ran out of time. This dress is heavy but not cumbersome. The dress is well lined and no need for a bra. Great design and style. Would highly recommend this dress for any black tie event.

This is a great dress if you're looking to go full glam and aren't messing around. I felt very 30s in it, very sophisticated and chic. If you can go without a bra I recommend it but if not the go for a thin back-strap and you can even pin it behind the strap in the back. Dress does not stretch.

Wasn't able to wear it because it was too long but the dress is beautiful and the fabric is great!

Usually wear size 4-6 and originally rented a 6. The 6 was huggggge around the chest (I wear 34 C/D). I then rented a 2 and a 4 and decided to go with the 2. The 4 looked great but the 2 looked tailored. Please note that my waist is 25 inches which allows for the smaller size. Hourglass can size down but all other body shapes should get your true size. My measurements in this pic are 34-25-36 if that helps.

Gorgeous dress!! So many compliments!

Beautiful details, looks better in person than online! I would have preferred a Regular length but the Long was ok with heels. Loved the dress overall.

Excellent fit in all the right places. Beautiful details in the fabric. Very comfortable as I was running around organizing a Gala event. Numerous compliments. Sexy back was a fun addition.

Gorgeous dress. Rented to possibly wear to a formal affair. Chose another option. Form fitting and a little hard to move in- easier to dance in other options. Very thick material, great for these cooler months. Length was good (I'm 5'10).

The material quality was beautiful, and the shape was extremely flattering! I have a larger chest and was very comfortable without a bra. The dress shows off your waist beautifully and hides flaws! The open back was such a great sexy but classy detail. The long length was perfect with 4 inch heels.

Loved this dress and got so many compliments!

While the back of the dress is gorgeous, the front is very matronly. Heavy too.

I absolutely loved this dress. It was unique! Very good material, true to size. I was able to eat and most importantly dance in it comfortably! Would buy if i could!

From the moment I saw this dress online I was in love. And it did not disappoint. The dress arrived a couple of days early which was great because it gave me total peace of mind! I loved the option of having a back-up size because I almost ordered the 2R after reading the reviews! The 4R fit me perfectly! To make it even better, the back is stunning and I was concerned the bra would show but they way the dress fits and since the material is heavy, no bra required! Definitely made a statement and the dress received the compliments to prove it! Can't wait to order my next dress!

I am 5'3", 134 lbs, and 34C. The 4R fit like a glove. It was a little long but I wore high heels and the length was perfect. I did use a adhesive strapless, backless bra, but probably would have been okay without it. The material is thick and the slit up the back made it easy to walk in.

It runs small so size up but this was amazing! Wore it for a formal event in Italy!! So many compliments

I got so many compliments when I wore this dress. The colors and lace are gorgeous. I'm curvy so it was snug but really accented my curves. The back was beautiful!

This dress is nice. All lace and embroidery which I love. The dress fit large all over on me. I am a size 0 and it was still too big. I wore it anyways and still received complements all day.

This dress is really tight around the ribs and has an umpire waist style fit. It was NOT flattering on me. Additionally, the dress has almost neon blue netting on it, which I didn't notice in the photos or I wouldn't have rented it. I thought it was black and white. Not true. Now off to find something else to wear in less than a week. It shipped early which is probably the only nice thing I've experienced on my first RTR try. If you are 5'5" or above definitely go with the long if you will have any heel on your feet.

Was just a few inches too long for me I would have been tripping in it. Otherwise the fit everywhere else was stunning!!!!! Wish I owned so I could hem it.

I rented this dress for a friend's engagement party. The material is thick enough that you do not have to wear a bra, since your back is open. I wore a 12R, but I could have worn the 10R (just depends on how form fitting you want it). This dress was easy to dance in and was very comfortable. I wore black pumps and minimal jewelry. The dress can snag a bit because it's lace, but it only happened twice with me. I absolutely loved this dress and felt so beautiful and classy while wearing it.

This dress got so many compliments! It was very beautiful and comfortable, I thought it might be a little heavy or itchy but it was neither. Fit was good, could have worn a size smaller for a more form fitting look at 5'6 125lbs. I would rent this dress again for a formal affair!

Length was great for a small 1" heel, and didn't need much jewelry. It stood out in many strapless gowns, but was not a spectacle.

Fun!

I rented this dress for my Aunt's 50th that was Harlem Nights Themed. I received so many compliments on how i made the dress feel vintage and that i did 't go straight to a flapper dress. It fit me perfectly! I just wish i wore a bra because my boobs looked saggy, but other than that i loved it!!

I love love love this dress! It was beautifully designed with much more detail than any picture has shown. For those ladies that NEED to wear a bra this is the dress for you. My only draw back was sizing. I ordered a 0 but maybe should've gotten a 00. It was loose around the shoulders and I had to pin my waistline. Nonetheless I would not have traded it for another dress even if I had the option!

I wore this to a Old Hollywood Glam awards banquet and it was a hit. I normally wear a 4, but only the 2L was available so it was a bit snug, but still workable. The back is very flattering and as a taller gal (5'9"), the 2L was the perfect length with heels. For the right event, I'd rent again.

Fits TTS. Not too snug through hips. Tons of compliments on this unique gown.

This dress is gorgeous! Compliments all night. I tried a gazillion dresses and all too short. I'm 6' tall and I wore heels with this dress even. Definitely would rent this piece again!

Fit size especially in length

This dress is elegance and sophistication at its finest! I wore it to a Church Gala and it is the perfect dress for when you want demure but still want feel beautiful and stand out! Going black can be basic but this black number has nothing basic about it! It's a memorable dress and I received many compliments. I ordered a 2R and 4R because I usually fluctuate between those sizes. The 2R was a bit tight in the waist but all the other areas hugged my body better than the 4R so I opted to be slightly uncomfortable in the waist to get a ether overall look.

You can't go wrong with it .

I received so many compliments in this dress!! I'm normally a size 12 but i just recently lost weight and my 12s are fitting loose... so i tried a size 10 and i'm glad i did... The size 12 would have fit but the size 10 gave me a more tailored fit which is what i wanted. This dress also has hints if navy blue in the embroidery which doesn't come through in pictures but it's very pretty!! love wearing this dress!

A teeny bit tight across the bust for 38D, but looks great! Plenty of room elsewhere. Dress is HEAVY, but it is amazing!

Gorgeous dress, nice material and style, sits very well at the waist, a bit big on the back which works well when you are sitting but can be a bit loose while standing. Overall loved it!

Fit like it was made for me. Wouldn't have had any tailoring if it were mine to keep. I'm 5'7 and 145lbs, thicker in the thighs and narrow near bust. Material was very well made and thick quality but not heavy. Didn't need to wear bra was perfect length as well.. shoes were 4-6 inches tall I believe. Photographs nicely, would highly recommend.

Dress was very beautiful. Would have given it 5 stars but had an issue with the back. I have a small torso, so i had to use fashion tape to keep the sides in place (so they wouldn't bunch up). So if you have a small torso and are planning on renting this dress, just keep that in mind

Fit great & received lots of compliments! Wore it to a 20's themed Gatsby Gala at my kid's private school. Tasteful but edgy & beautiful. It was the perfect dress for the event!

I wore flats and it was the perfect length! I'm 6'0"

Gorgeous gown. Even fancier than anticipated. Fit like it was made for me, but wasn't the right dress for the occasion.

True to size. Slim fit. Great condition. The back is cut out so make note of this you will need a sticky bra or I wore a silk tank under and it looked part of the dress. I was able to dance with no issues great coverage.
