Loved this dress! I was worried it was going to hit me in an awkward place because I am petite, but it ended up looking fine (perhaps it was the fluff of the tulle). I never wear strapless but was very pleased with the sweetheart neckline and support of the bodice. Great dress and beautiful color. Super fun to wear to this black tie optional wedding!

Because this was my first time ordering, I was able to get a free second size. I didn't end up using it, but it DID ease my mind a bit since I was set to receive it two days before my event: PROM! It came in a beautiful cloth bag with very easy instructions on how to return it. I had never worn a strapless dress before, but this had an adjustable hook kind of like a bra hook inside it, so I was able to make it snug enough that it wouldn't slide down all night. It was also structured enough that I didn't need to ear a bra! One thing to know about this dress is that the inner lining on the skirt is a little on the tighter side, you can't really bend down all the way (I had to ask my handsome boyfriend to take my shoes on and off for me!) but if you hike it up sitting isn't uncomfortable... All night people kept telling me I looked like a fairy princess and that is pretty much my goal in life so I was totally pleased. :)  Overall, the tulle is beautiful and floaty, the top is perfectly draped, and I was comfy and felt like a princess all night! Such an easy process, I will definitely be ordering from RTR again!

I wore this as a Cinderella costume (disneybound) for my birthday at Disneyland. Paired it with a jean jacket to dress down. I can not tell you how many people complimented me but specifically said how beautiful & pretty I looked in my dress. This dress is just that -- stunning. I turned 28 but I looked particularly youthful in this style, and might have been the drinks but two people even thought I was 20! Hello! I'll take it. The color is whisper light blue. The top has sheen & is sort of pleated & rouched in the most flattering way. The tulle is 4 layers, extremely delicate & light as air over a fitted pencil sheath. Extremely flattering all around especially for the tummy area where of course you could not see a thing. I loved how the lining was pencil fitted but the delicate tulle created a modestly a-line silhouette but in some pics could still see the pencil silhouette. Interior waist band was necessary. Zipper sticks at the waist seam like most do. However I found this dress to be typical designer sizing which fit like two sizes smaller than street sizing. Like I could not zip it up all the way but I had a jacket so no one ever knew. This would make for a perfect formal dress for anyone with a fantastical youthful spirit. & you can dress it down too don't forget! Sad to say goodbye but like Cinderella I have to return my dream dress & accessories at midnight. *A dream is a wish your heart makes* 

The skirt was surprising puffy but it still looked amazing. 

This was a BEAUTIFUL dress! I just loved it. The fit was perfect, the color was beautiful. I got so many compliments. I was comfortable wearing it all day. I would definitely rent again!

Loved this dress. I normally can pick up any size 4 in street clothes and be good to go. However, in this dress I needed the size 6 to get the zipper all the way up in my torso. The sheath underneath is fitted but comfortable. I did not wear a bra, just a little spanx on my lower half. The color is a little more metallic-esque than the stock photo- but still a lovely blue. I needed to let the dress hang and do a light steam to release the wrinkles. I received tons of compliments, especially by all the people wearing the standard black dress to the gala. I would rent it again if I had to do it over! The RTR process is really fun and I was impressed. 

Rented this for a black tie wedding - fun twist on formal attire! Felt fun to wear a tutu type skirt but still felt elegant with the satin bodice. Was concerned that I would look too teeny-bopper but in the end it was fine.

This dress wasn't my first choice, but it ended up pretty great! I had worn it to my school's homecoming. This fit was good for myself, but walking/dancing had a good amount of trouble. I have long strides so it was definitely restricting there. The opaque skirt underneath was what was tight. It kept sliding up about 2 inches because of any movement. It's still 4 stars because you couldn't tell the skirt had moved so it look normal. It's very pretty and dainty. 

Very pretty dress
Very well made
The liner of the tulle skirt was a little too fitted for my taste so it rode up when I walked or sat down.
Other than that, i got plenty of compliments on the dress and it looked beautiful


I fell in love with this dress the instant I saw the photo and it did not disappoint. I ordered a size up after reading other reviews, but because of my smaller bust I ended up wishing that I had ordered a size smaller. The colour is absolutely gorgeous and the tulle is so beautiful. I received many compliments and was told I looked like a modern day Cinderella more than once! The one downside to this dress is the tighter skirt underneath the tulle. Because of my wider hips the skirt tended to rise up and crease as seen in the photo, although when I was dancing it didn't matter! The top was a bit too large, but because of the high quality it didn't slip down at all. I wore the dress with a pair of nude heels and a pearl necklace and couldn't have been any happier with my final look. I definitely recommend this dress!

While a tulle skirt is not typically my style, I loved the playful look of the Katerina Dress! It ran mostly true to size but I would be sure to size up for backup, especially if you have a full bust and/or hips. As someone with a pear figure, I found the fitted skirt beneath the tulle to be a little snug and would have had the perfect fit with a size 6. This style is an attention grabber but should still be given some sparkle with the perfect accessories. Pair it with bold, yet delicate crystal accessories to complete your look!
