Everyone loved my dress! Liked the skin right look of the smaller size of the 2 so went with that instead of the 4. The straps were weirdly long like other people said so I had to pin the extra into the inside of the dress. Definitely need fashion tape if you're bigger than an A or B cup. 

This dress is a winner! I had to get used to the top being so open, but once I got comfortable in it, I LOVED it! Nicholas overall tends to run about a 1/2 size small. I'm a true size 2 so this fit, but it was a tiny bit snug. I would definitely recommend getting your true size and one size up for backup. Because the top is so open, I wouldn't recommend this dress to anyone with over a C-cup. The waist and hips are very fitted, and there is virtually no stretch to the material. Happy Renting!

The fit is very slim, I generally wear a 0 or 2 and the 2 wouldn't zip, I had to wear the 4 which then ended up being a bit large up top. The straps were VERY long and I had a lot of issues trying to pin them the whole night. Over all it was a pain to wear but looked great! 

Loved this dress so I was really disappointed that I didn't actually get to wear it out. Colors are beautiful, love that it is super sexy but balances it out with color and a longer hemline. But the reviews were pretty spot on - the dress runs small through the hips and the straps are super long. I normally wear a two but it was like a second layer of skin on me. My only real complaint is that I couldn't find a good way to really secure the straps - safety pins busted even standing still. Beyond that though I loved this dress and would definitely rent again, and hopefully wear it out this time!! 

Beautiful dress, very eye catching, people loved it! Only downside is that the straps are a little long and it's very low cut - so boob tape is a must! Can feel a little uncomfortable. Also there is wire lining, and this may just have been mine, but the wire was poking through the dress and stabbing me- not very comfortable. Just kept reminding myself pain is beauty! 😳 

I didn't end up wearing this but loved it and would definitely order it again for a different event.  The 6 was way too loose in the waist for me whereas the 4 fit super snug. The straps weren't as long as I thought they'd be due to other reviews, but I definitely had to stuff the top a little due to my small chest size.  It's definitely not an easy/comfortable dress to throw on and not worry about, but if you can figure out how to keep your chest in, it's worth it.

I truly felt amazing in this dress.. As the other reviews stated the straps needed to be pined and girls definitely buy strong fashion tape for the chest area!!!! Over all I love this dress and got a lot of complements wearing it!! Would rent again!

This dress fit like a glove, accentuating all the right places. Although the straps were long (I fixed with some quick, temporary stitches so it was no problem), the bodice is well made and tailored to accent curves perfectly. Colors are gorgeous and the print is unique. I got compliments all night which always feels good! Size up if you're in between sizes (I'm in between 4 and 6 and the 6 was a perfect fit). 

Amazing fit, looked great on. Definitely needs fashion tape. the straps were too long so had to be pinned shorter but otherwise it was perfect for a night out!

Gorgeous dress! Stands out, my date had to help me several times with the straps  

This dress is absolutely stunning. The colors are bright, but not too bright. The fit of this dress is strange. It runs small in the hips and thighs but big on top. The straps are way too long, but nothing a little duck tape and twisting in the back can't fix. The top was way too large and didn't do my girls justice so I stuffed the top and used fashion tape to keep everything in place. When I first tried it on I hated it, but after adjusting it I loved it! 

Wore this dress for a Wedding and it was absolutely gorgeous! Very snug fit. I ordered the 4 and 6, and the 6 was way too big but the 4 just barely fit. With the way the bust portion is made, you definitely need to go for the snug fit and have a friend/partner help zip you into the dress. Once it was on though, it was very secure even without any Hollywood tape. Love this dress!!

Straps were a bit long. Double Stick tape is a must. Runs thorn fitting. I ordered a size up and it got perfect. 

The colors in this dress are unbelievable, the photos do not do it justice! I will say that I typically wear a size 4 in all dresses I've rented with RTR, the 6 was almost too small... like couldn't really breathe well after dinner, haha. I suggest go a size or two up! The straps were reallllllyyy long, I ended up having to secure with safety pins in the back - Still, received endless compliments and is absolutely worth renting!

I love Nicholas! They really know how to work your assets in a way that never comes off as slutty. This dress is a little loud,  but I paired it with nude heels and a nude Alexander wang clutch, and it was very fashion forward. I got compliments all night. I will say I don't think this will work for small chested girls. I am a smallish C cup and they looked good, but any smaller in that department and I wouldn't have been able to fill it out. 

The straps were a bit long (as other reviewers commented). With the help of lots of double-sided tape, this dress was a perfect choice for a fun summer party at the Art Musuem. It was surprisingly comfortable too!

It fit so well everywhere except the straps (like other reviews said). I just knotted up each strap on my shoulders and it was perfect! I wore flower pedals because you can't wear a bra with this dress and they were totally fine. I got compliments all night! 

This dress is amazing. I did have to tie the straps because they were abnormally long but this dress is a sassy showstopper that I am considering adding to my closest permanently.

This dress was perfect for my bachelorette party.  I loved the bralette top, and fitted pencil sheath bottom.  I would recommend for large bust ( I am a DD cup and was still falling out at times)

Perfect fit, feels very high end and thick well made material!

Beautiful piece. I'm usually a 6 but the 6 was too tight around the bust to close. In addition the straps were about 3 inches too long. I was able to take them up with safety pins and still feel held in with some double sided tape. Many many compliments. 

Super flattering material. The color and style of the dress was great for a 20th High School reunion in the summer. It was comfortable and easy to wear. The dress does show a lot of chest, you just need to flaunt it. I used tape to make my boobs look more perky. I would love to buy this dress!


This dress was awesome! Very slim fit but not small. Definitely be prepared to use some boob tape, safety pins, etc. Like others have said, the straps are super long. I double pinned them in the back and used some boob tape for the gapping. Totally a show stopper! 

One of my favorite rentals, hands down. I wore this to my best friend's engagement party and got compliments all night. Like mentioned in the other reviews, the straps were long, but I just tied them together at the top, which also gave me a little more support up top. The dress fit amazingly and is super flattering, although I would not recommend to anyone with a large chest. Hoping to see more rentals from this designer available!

Beautiful dress! I said it ran a little small instead of true fit because it was tight around my midsection and thighs. I went to a wedding and there was only two stepping on the dance floor from me and if I dropped something, picking it up wasn't happening. The dress being snug I could deal with but checking on my boobs every two seconds was really annoying. I even used double sided tape but the way the dress is cut up top it was still pretty open. 

I'm usually a size 4 in dresses.. And I got a size 4 originally the top fit perfect on that, the bottom was just a little snug.. I wore the size 6 I just had to tie the straps and wear some fashion tape to hold the top in place. Very nice dress

6 fit perfect! Love the color and material of the dress. It was super flattering and fun to wear. 

Event: wedding held in a bar rented out just for guests. Yes, the bride and groom said their vows behind the bar. It was great!

Fit: I ordered based on my hips since it is a sheath dress so the top definitely gapped up top a bit and the straps were about an inch or so too long. I simply adjusted the straps for a perfect, no-wardrobe malfunction fit and just darted them in with a piece of thread. I literally pinned them in place first and sat down, bent over, hopped around, etc. to make sure I wouldn't fall out! Totally worth the effort for the look! I received lots of compliments from other guests and even the bride loved the "sassy" look. Also, I am only 5'4" so the dress was closer to tea length.

Styling: If you can get the straps to fit correctly to your body, all that is needed are pasties. I had NO slippage, accidents, or almost accidents. I kept my accessories simple and my shoes neutral. If you are on the shorter side, I would definitely recommend a higher heel (3" or higher w/ at least a 1/4" platform for comfort).

Overall: I was a little self-conscious about being too "booby" in the dress but it was okay. If you have a larger bust, this dress can be very dangerous in terms of lack of proper coverage. The fabric was well structured and felt so luxurious. It had plenty enough give/stretch to be comfortable sitting, dancing, or standing without restriction or constant tugging. I wouldn't recommend it for a traditional wedding setting though. If you are going to sport this look, do it with confidence and a side of sass :)

This dress truly fit me like a glove except for the straps (as every other reviewer has noted) I pinned them in the back with safety pins and had no issues whatsoever. This dress is sexy and curve hugging so extra busty girls might want to save this for a night out as opposed to a wedding to keep it classy. I felt like a million buck in this dress! 

Only reason why it got a 4/5 was due to the straps, they are super long!

Loved this dress! I wore it in Vegas. I ordered a 4 and 6. I figured I'd need the 6 based on the reviews but the 6 was way too big. The 4 was perfect, although I couldn't pig out because it was snug. I didn't need a bra and the straps weren't too long like others said they were. I do have broad shoulders though and an athletic build. Bra size is 34-D. This dress looks 10000 times better in person and on! 

This dress has a bit of stretch and the straps are very long.  It's best for someone with a long torso (like myself) and maybe a fuller bust so that you can fill the top without excess or falling straps. It runs a tad small in the waist specifically. I was more comfortable in the size up (4), but the top was looser and would have gaped open more from the side for my liking. So I sucked it up (literally) and went with the rib-crushing size 2. My chest was more secure, but because of the long straps I still put in chicken cutlets to fill it out more. I also used double sided tape on my chest to keep it down. Looking back at the photos now, I probably shouldn't have because my chest was noticeably larger than usual to my guests, but no complaints there! lol

I think the length and shape of this dress is best for someone a little taller. If you could find a way to pin the straps inconspicuously in the back to shorten them, it would fit many more. Perfect look to rent. Memorable and great for special occasions. Not something to wear to an event honoring anyone else by yourself. You will steal the show!

looks amazing! how did you baste the straps? I&#39;m same size and nervous about the strap situation. any tips would be helpful, thanks!

looks amazing! how did you &quot;baste&quot; the straps down? i&#39;m the same size but nervous about the strap situation


Fit absolutely perfectly except for the straps which were too long. Easy fix - I basted them down which was a safer alternative than pinning. It's definitely snug and definitely shows off your assets, but was perfect for the festive destination wedding I went to in Puerto Rico. 

This dress is stunning and I got a lot of compliments on it. The downfall was the chest area. It was too small for me (34b) and I constantly found myself fixing the top. Even with fashion tape it's a very risky situation. 

The dress fit like a dream with the slight exception of the straps, which were a bit too long for my shorter torso. A little double-stick tape would've been clutch to make me feel extra-secure!

I am a 34 DD, the size 4 fit everywhere but my chest. So if you are larger on top I suggest going up a size. 

This dress was amazing quality! The fabric was very nice and faltering. I wore the size 6 and the top fit well, I tried the 4 but the top was to small. I received so many complements, everyone at my sisters bridal shower LOVED the dress, I felt fantastic!! 

I wore this out on date night visiting my boyfriend in West Palm Beach Florida and it fit the occasion perfectly! The straps are WAY too big and had to be safety pinned down and inwards to fit. I have a small C by augmentation and should not have a problem filling any dress so I found this surprising! I'm usually very conservative so I knew this would blow my boyfriends mind....mission accomplished. : )
