I loved this dress. It looked so elegant. Perfect with nude heels. Rent this, you won't regret it. 

I thought this was great dress for a brunch. The bust and shoulders fit perfectly, and I have narrow shoulders but a larger bust for my frame. Below the waist is slightly gathered so some more room there. Some of the appliques were a little folded etc but it was fine. 

This dress fit me really well. It could move and dance really easily in it, and wasn't concerned about it being too short for my 5'11'' frame. It was also really pretty and I got a lot of compliments on it. I would wear it again in a heartbeat! The only slight downside was that the flowers on the dress were a little droopy and I was wary of ironing them. 

This dress was perfect for the event I attended. Lots of compliments. 

Fit was great, very comfortable to wear during a warm end of summer day.

I wore the four. Usually I wear a six in a dress because of my bust size, but the four felt better. I loved the cut and it was snug without being tight and easy to maneuver in.  I would love to find another event to wear it to!  Thanks!!

The dress fit true to size. I ordered a 6 and an 8. After gaining 11 pounds over the summer (beer!) I figured I would need the 8. I did not even try on the 6. The fit is very flattering and eases over a pot belly/muffin top. I did not wear a bra. The dress hit just above my knee. I received a ton of compliments. The dress photographs well (the photos here are quick ones as I left the salon), and everyone oo'ed over the dress. It has a sweet blue jewel closure in the back. It doesn't show a lot of skin (appropriate for the occasion), but I still felt gorgeous. The dress was bride approved. Other reviewers noted that the dress felt tight in the sleeve. I was not worried about that as I have slim arms; nevertheless, note that the net fabric does not stretch and the sleeve is a small cap sleeve, so if you plan to raise your arms over your head a lot while dancing, you may want to re-think this as a choice.  Over all, it is a stunning dress!

I loved wearing this dress to a friend’s wedding. It’s so distinctive and got lots of compliments. I should have sized up from a 4 to a 6. The 4 juuuuust fit, but a 6 would have been comfier.

I chose to go braless rather than fight with a strapless all night and I think that was the right decision. If you have a chest and hips the under lining can be a bit snug but it has a lot of stretch and never felt too constricting. Definitely recommend for a formal affair I was comfortable all night and had no trouble dancing.

Beautiful dress worn for a wedding. Got a lot of compliments on the dress. Fit perfect. 

The dress was a great fit and perfect for the wedding. 

Fit very nicely on my 5'1 frame, full bust, and short torso. Ended up wearing a different dress but if weather had cooperated, would have worn this one. 

Fit was great - maybe a little extra room up top given I have super small bust - but overall no complaints.

I ordered this for a rehearsal dinner outfit. The fit and flare worked great for my figure (my measurements are 36-23-37). A little itchy/scratchy around the arms but for the occasion, I didn't mind so much. Maybe if I had to wear it for 12+ hours straight it would be different. Would recommend. 

Loved this  dress. It was a little snug in the upper stomach but fit perfectly everywhere else. 

It was a great rental - very unique. The only issue was the gapping in the back. I felt classy in it.

Wore to an evening holiday networking event. The only con was the zipper-hard to reach without someone there to help. 

Unique and pretty dress! The fit overall was good.  The lining did bunch for me a little at the waist in front, but I would have worn this to a formal wedding regardless if I hadn't worn another RTR dress instead. 

Gorgeous dress. The appliqués folded a bit and the chest was a bit tight. I decided on another RTR dress instead. I'd definitely rent again. 

Runs small in my opinion and very tight if busty. I would size up. I went with a size 16. 

Overall too large; I didn’t wear this dress because I didn’t like the loose fit, mostly too much room on top. 

The results were underwhelming on. It ran a bit small and I did not choose to wear it. 

Only con is the torso gets twisted with walking, but I had spanx underneath and it worked. 

I absolutely loved this dress, it definitely met my expectations. I got tons of compliments. It was a great length, easy to dance in, comfortable, and figure flattering. Very classy and age appropriate dress for a wedding or any type of event! 

Loved this dress for all the details and fit - all measurements were true to size and the dress was simple to wear. The only person disappointed was my boyfriend when I took off my jacket initially as I think he thought I was wearing nothing underneath :o 

Rented for an outdoor wedding in MS in November. Perfect length for a taller gal. 

Overall fit was great. The top was a tad big, would've been perfect if I was 1 cup size bigger (story of my life). I got compliments all night and felt amazing in it. I will definitely be renting this one again. 

Fit was perfect.  I'm 72, 5'2", 118 lbs.  I received so many compliments.  Very comfortable dress!

Absolutely loved this dress. It fit beautifully. I normally wear a 4, but that size wasn't available so I went for the 2 and it fit well. Details are gorgeous and I got tons of compliments all night. Wish I could keep it! 

This dress was gorgeous! Photographed very well. Perfect dress for a wedding guest 

This fit perfectly! It is forgiving in the Mommy tummy area! I got tons of compliments! 

This dress is beautiful! I wore it to a vintage garden themed wedding (complete with a fascinator, which brought the look all together). The fit was true to size and the dress was super easy and comfortable to wear. Like other reviewers, I found the area around the arms a bit itchy at first, but after a few minutes, I didn't even notice it. I got a ton of compliments. I would totally wear it again! 

Loved this dress. So many compliments!  Was super comfy. I went with the bigger size. 14 fit but was a little snug so the 16 was more comfortable. 

Absolutely loved this dress and got tons of compliments!

I had just had a baby 1 month before. I'm typically a size 4 or 6 but needed the size 8. I still felt great and the dress was comfortable. I highly recommend! 

I wore my backup size because it fit me better. I usually wear a 14, but I think right now I'm a bit heavier than I normally am, so my guess is the fit is pretty true to size. The dress is very fancy and I got a lot of compliments all evening long. But it's also very comfortable, and I was able to dance all night long with no pulling, riding up, or discomfort. I had read you could go braless in this dress but I wanted to wear my bra (for the dancing!); it is a True&Co nude bra which was basically invisible through the embroidery. Also doesn't reveal your underwear lines. I'm all about comfort! 

I’ve been eyeing this dress for a while. I thought it was even prettier in person. I’m 5’10” and the length was perfect.

Comfortable fit, received compliments all night! 

Definitely size up if you are in between sizes - the dress underneath the embroidery is very form fitting. I liked this, but didn't love the nude color (it looked a little brown), and ended up wearing something else. 

I normally wear a 14 but had to size up due to the chest area being really tight. the dressed was nice and was so comfortable. and I received a lot of compliments on it.

The photos online made me think it was black, but I was pleasantly surprised at it being navy (clearly I didn't read the description). It is flattering and I got compliments. After wearing it for 8 hours the sleeve fabric began to irrate my skin and I was happy to take it off. I also thought the keyhole back should have laid flat, but it didn't. Regardless, I loved the look and length. 

I ended up wearing a size bigger than normal as it fit more comfortably. When I tried on my size it fit but I couldn't raise my arms. The only downside to wearing the more comfy size is that the sheer top of the back didn't lay flat, it was a little bit gapey. Overall very comfortable dress and pretty in pics. Up close the flowers were folded and a little strange.
