Beautiful dress by RT. Great for formal occasions!
Fit perfectly but I'm 5' 9" and had to wear flats due to the length. Got tons of compliments!

I loved this dress! I received so many compliments.
I was afraid I was going to rip the bottom with my heel because it did fit me a bit long. Everything worked out, and I looked great!

So comfortable!
I would recommend this dress to anyone, but keep in mind that it does run large so size down. It moves so beautifully when you walk you feel like you are gliding.

Not as pretty as picture :(
This was not as flattering as on the model. I didn't end up wearing this dress. If you have a bust or wide back I would recommend going a size up.

I loved this dress!
This Rebecca Taylor dress was perfect for the wedding I attended, it was comfortable to wear and was very flattering (the fitted style is quite forgiving). The dress looked brand new and didn't require any steaming or pressing. I loved dancing with this dress, it's quite weighted (with the layers of fabric) but looks fantastic when swirling on the dance floor. The overall experience with RTR was fabulous, I highly recommend it. My dress arrived exactly when I expected with the back up size (which I needed as the dress does run big as per the reviews posted).

Sparkle, Glitter and Shine
I picked this dress because of the sequin detail and the color, it matched great with my boyfriend's dress blues. The dress fits large partly due to the stretchy portion in the back that has the zipper, it does make it harder for the dress to stay up so I definitely recommend sizing down, I had picked a size 2 but got sent a 4. The dress does not run too long lengthwise, heels would work great, I chose flats because my boyfriend is not too much taller than me. As for the jewelry, anything silver or jeweled really brings out the sequins and makes the dress pop.

Such an amazing dress, especially for an evening formal event. It felt great to wear!
The dress is extremely forgiving, especially in the upper body area. Would recommend ordering your normal size and a size down if possible. Great Dress, everyone loved it!! Extremely comfortable and easy to dance in as well!

I was smitten!
I wore this dress with 4" heels and the dress was an inch off the floor. At first I was worried, but it worked out perfectly because I never stepped on it. I needed a size 0, but was only able to rent the size 2. It was stretched out in the back. I had to clip it under my arms to prevent it from falling. The dress is gorgeous & I wanted to keep it. When I walked you could really see the striking detail. I received so many compliments at our ball. Even people I didn't know came off the dance floor to tell me how amazing it was. Definitely a show stopper!

RTR works very quickly and you can tell they care about their customers.
The dress was gorgeous, but a little too large. I was only able to order 1 size so I was unable to wear it and had to return it. However, I received my order very quickly and the store credit was applied to my account as soon as I told them it did not fit. I will definitely use this site again.

Super comfortable dress, and I got tons of compliments!
I wore this to a black tie fundraiser for the school where I work. I got tons of compliments and felt beautiful all night. For a strapless dress, it was super comfortable, since the back has stretch in the fabric. I'm going to a black tie wedding in June 2013, and I'm thinking of renting it again!

First choice that ended up not working...
This dress was huge.. I'm normally in between a four and a six and the four was falling off me. It is because it is stretchy in the back instead of just a zipper. Also the frays were not as pretty in person and the dress looked a little tattered and worn- it's a beautiful dress and looks like it is rented a lot, but I didn't want everyone to know I was renting a dress so I went with my second choice. The color is very pretty and the sparkles are great. It would be a great prom dress, but for a military ball it just wasn't what I was looking for.

Loved it!
i loved this dress and so did everyone else at the party. it was super comfortable and easy to dance and move in. my only compliant was that over the course of the night the dress grew progressively looser and by the end of the night I had to repeatedly pull it up

Most beautiful dress I have ever worn. Extremely flattering. I received countless complements.
Fit was a little big but that is due to the smocked back which stretches. I wear either a 2 or 4 in a dress. I ordered both but ended up wearing the 2R. I'm 5'5", 132 lbs, very athletic build. The dress would be flattering on anyone though. The dress looked amazing next to my husband's dress blues. My 5 year old even commented how beautiful mommy looked! So sweet, thank God I wore waterproof mascara because I could have cried. Overall, stunning dress. Sad I had to take it off and return it.

I wore this dress to a black-tie optional Christmas ball at my school.
The dress was a perfect fit. I usually wear a 6 but I wore the 4R in this dress because the bust of the dress was a little big. It was very long so if you are my height I would suggest wearing heels. I wore heels and the dress was still kind of dragging the ground. Overall I am very happy with my experience. I got a lot of compliments on my dress and I will most likely be renting again :)

The dress makes you instantaly cute and its comfortable to boot. It runs long and a little big in the top. If you have the right bra and shoes it works perfect for any party. I wore it to our company Christmas party. I would rent th dress again.
AnnieJanuary 31, 2013
Was the regular size long enough for you? I am 5'10" and am debating, but it looks like you are taller than me and ordered the regular size. Thanks!
RTR CustomerFebruary 5, 2013
Hi Annie! If you are 5'10" I would recommend getting the long length! The regular length may be a bit short on you if you plan to wear heels!
ChristinaFebruary 5, 2013
Annie, I am only 5'3" the height my height is incorrect on this. Its still long. I have 3 in heels on and it still touch the ground.

Glamourous and Light Weight... but LONG
I don't have a pic of me in this, but the dress is great! The one that was shipped to me was brand new with the tags still on and the color is just like the stock photo. I wish I could have worn it but at 5'7 and with 3 1/2 inch heels, it was still 2-3 inches too long. I should have ordered the 12R instead of the 12L

Couldn't believe how many compliments I received!
I had ordered the 2R and 0R and wore the 0R which fit perfectly. I am 5.8 and wore 2.5" heels which worked out great. I preferred that the dress did not come all the way to the floor because I did not want to step on it - perfect for dancing all night. Prompt online assistance. Easy return process.

This dress fit perfectly! I was a little hesitant to try RTR at first, but I'm so glad I did. This helped make my night unforgettable. Definitely get a size down though; the dress definitely ran a little large.

Beautiful and comfortable!
I loved this dress--I was sad to send it back! It is so beautiful in person, the navy color and sequin detail are wonderful together. The sweetheart neckline is flattering, and the back of dress has smocking that allows the dress to stretch to fit your body. This kept the dress tight around my bust/waist so I didn't need to worry about "adjusting" a strapless dress all night. I am 5'4'' and wore 4'' inch heels; the dress fell just a bit shorter than I usually prefer, but I enjoyed the dress so much, it didn't bother me. Overall, this is a comfortable, stunning dress. Perfect for my occasion!

Stunning!
I wore this on New Years Eve to a ball. It is SO pretty! I got complements from random strangers and even two waitresses at dinner. However, it runs large because the back is stretchy. For bigger busts, didn't offer a lot of support. But with a strapless bra, it was perfect. I ended up wearing the smaller size (10) but wish I had an (8). But overall, it was really REALLY hard to mail back.

My dress was not only beautiful, but different. No one else had a dress like it.
I really didn't like the dress online, but my mom insisted i ordered it as my second dress...I cant thank my mom enough. I have rented a few dresses from RTR, but this was my favorite. It fit perfectly, and i felt like a princess in it. It was flowy, light and stayed on very well for a strapless dress.

I loved my first RTR experience!
Everything worked great! The reviews were really helpful and I ordered a 2R which is typically what I wear in tops, but a 4 in the hips. The dress was plenty long enough - in fact a little too long, but I don't wear really high heels. My heels were likely 2 inches and I'm 5'6". I wore the dress to a New Years Eve wedding and it was perfect. I got tons of compliments.

The perfect light and airy gown.
Out of the two dresses that I rented, this was the one I was madly in love with. The fit was great (just a little baggier in the bust, but that's because I have a small bust). The dress was very long for me, but since I was only wearing it for an engagement photo shoot, it only helped make the dress more stunning. My photographer loved the touch of sparkle in the dress and was absolutely mesmerized by the flow of the skirt. When I walked, it would pick up wind and float in the air. In my photo, my fiance and I were laying on a ton of white towels in the snow; you can really see how beautiful the skirt looks.

Didn't wear but loved it! Just recommended it to my best friend!
I ordered both the 0L & 2L after reading other reviewers said the dress ran large (which it does because the top of the dress is stretchy material). I tried both dresses on with a 3 inch heel and they both fit great. I couldn't really tell a difference between the two sizes. I didn't end up wearing the dress but I would highly recommend it.

The dress was gorgeous! Perfect for this A list event; Palm Springs Film Festival!
Glad I was wearing this elegant gown given that at the Palm Springs Film Festival Awards Gala dinner we were seated four tables away from Bradley Cooper and Ben Affleck, along with other A-Listers! I felt elegant, extravagant, and classic all at the same time. The dress is comfy and A line (so you don't have worry about skipping out on your meal!). Hides flaws, and is a gorgeous fabric that flows when you walk. I would rent it again!

I received compliments all night long and the cut of the dress was a great fit for my body type!
Going into this whole rent experience I was nervous not to be able to try on the dresses before ordering. I am on the bustier side and it is hard to find dress that work. I should have ordered the size down because I ended up having to keep pulling up the top of the dress all night. But I guess that is better than the alternative. The regular is actually quite long as well. I mean I know that I am not that tall but even with heels it was still long. Overall, I loved the dress and would totally rent again!

Beautiful dress and received tons of compliments on the dress. I'll be back RTR for more.
I normally wear a 14/16 but the 12 fit nicely since it was a line and I carry my weight more on the bottom. Top fit nicely w/ a 36 D but might be too roomy for someone with a small bust. It was very long for my 5'2" frame but I made it work.
NicoleApril 27, 2013
Im about the same weight and bust size as you, but i was thinking of an 8 and a 10 because i dont really know what size dress i would normally wear anyway. would this dress be to small? was urs too big or just fine?

This dress was beautiful, flattering and SO comfortable for dancing the night away!
I rented this dress for a Mardi Gras ball with a "Welcome to the Jungle" theme. It was so fitting because I felt like a starry jungle night sky in this dress! The skirt flowed beautifully when I walked and the sequins sparkled in the light and in pictures. I'm 5'9 and wore medium height heels and it still covered my shoes, yet didn't drag on the floor. I was very pleased with the overall fit and look. I felt beautiful and elegant all night and received many compliments. The only downside was the stretchy material on the back of the dress. While ensuring a VERY comfortable fit, it was almost too loose around the bust. Wear a padded strapless bra and you should be fine. I highly recommend this gown!
KristylJanuary 31, 2013
I didn't because it wasn't available in my size when I ordered. I'm glad I went with the tall though because I think the regular would have just grazed the top of my shoes and I prefer it to cover my shoes.

This is a gorgeous gown, but it runs really big.
When I rented, the 4R was unavailable, but I had read that it was best to size up if you are busty in the sizing info. I wear a 34-36D, so I was hoping the 6 would fit. I don't know if the gown I received has elastic that has been stretched too many times, but it gaps up top. Teh gown itself is amazing - I really wish it fit!

LOVE THE SPARKLE!! I felt amazing all night!
The fit of the dress is great and with the strech on the back it makes for a forgiving top. I had some issues with the bust area It was too big in the 6 (which i normally wear) it really was too big even with a strapless bra on it was just huge! So i called RTR and they sent me a size 4 and it fit amazing! I had so many compliments on the dress all night.. even from complete strangers. I Felt beautiful and classy next to my husband in his Blues. I will forever use RTR for all my formal needs!
CassidyApril 1, 2013
How tall were your shoes? I am hoping to order this dress, but they only have the long sizes and I am 5'6". How did the length work for you?
LesleyApril 5, 2013
the long was just a bit too long with my 4" heels! But i wouldnt have traded this dress for anything just had to hold it up a bit to walk.

I wore this for a Mardi Gras ball. The sequins and floaty fabric were perfect.
I loved this dress. It was actually my backup dress, but I ended up choosing it to wear to my event. It was VERY long. I'm 5'3 and wore 4" heels and it still drug far behind me if I wasn't bunching it up to carry it. The other draw back was that the dress must have been previously worn by someone much more chesty than I, because it was obviously stretched out. I had to wear a strapless bra and pad it in order to keep the dress from slipping down, and it still felt loose in the chest area. The sequins on the dress were great in the dark ballroom, but if I had gone to a day event, I probably couldn't have pulled off wearing the dress because a lot of them were loose or tarnished and it was pretty obvious in the light. I hate to say anything negative because the dress was comfortable and I got a ton of compliments. If it had been 'newer' and shown less wear, it would have been PERFECT.

Dresses arrived right on time. Looked just like the picture.
My 17 y/o daughter wore this dress and it fit her well except the top of the bust area seemed a little stretched out. She is between 5 ft 6 in and 5 ft 7 in.tall and the 8L was really long. might could have worn the regular length. All and all it was a satisfactory experience. Would rent again.

People asked if they could touch my dress all night!
You can get by with a smaller size because of the stretch smock material in the back. Where the material transitions, I had to walk the zipper up, probably just from it being worn a lot. I wasn't able to get a petite but I wore high heels and it was alright. I am a 36DD and this fit fine.
EmilyApril 1, 2013
what height of heels did you wear?
ChristinaNovember 25, 2014
Sorry this is like 1.5 years late, but I'm just seeing this, I wore about 4" heels. It was still a bit long but not too bad.
