Reem Acra is one of my favorite designers. The dress is ethereal and dreamy!
Size worn: 2R
Overall fit: Small

I am a size 0, and the 2R fit perfectly! It does run small. I agree with the other reviewers with the cap sleeves being a little bit snug, but I didn't mind it too much. I wore this dress for my vintage romance themed engagement photo shoot. Compliments galore. I felt like a princess and my fiance also loved the dress! =)

I felt like a princess the moment I put it on!
Size worn: 8R
Overall fit: Small
Rented for: Formal Affair
The dress runs a bit small so you may want to order a slightly larger size. The bust area has built in structure so you may not need a bra. The dress is floaty, classic, and timeless. I was looking forward to receiving and wearing the dress so much and it exceeded my expectations!

So princess-y!
Size worn: 6R
Overall fit: Small
Rented for: Other
So I ordered this dress as a second dress for prom because I didn't think it would fit, but was willing to try. I normally wear a 4R, and I rented this in a 6R, because that's the closest size they had available for the date I needed it. When I tried it on and IT FIT I was so pleased! I'm 5'5 and it was a bit long. I tried to wear heels with it on around the house, but I felt like the heels kept stabbing the back of the dress and I was afraid it would tear. The only spot where the dress didn't fit completely was my bust. I'm pretty small in the bust, so that didn't really surprise me. The waist of the 4R wouldn't have fit me, however, since the waist of the 6R was snug, even though I'm pretty thin. I loved wearing this dress though! Only other thing I'll add- if you want to go outside for pictures, be careful because the dress loves to snag on branches and it's a huuuuge bug net. Especially if you live in muggy Florida. Other than that, I loved this dress :)

PERFECT Prom Dress
Size worn: 4L
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Formal Affair
Although I was extremely worried that my dress would not fit (my backup size of 6L was damaged), I was pleasantly surprised to find that the dress fit me impeccably. I wore this dress to prom and received endless compliments on my dress ("princess" was used far more than once). The dress is slightly longer in the back than it is in the front, so I did end up wearing 2" heels, which was fine. There really is a lot of dress though--and bugs did get trapped in the layers of tulle when I was taking pictures out in the grass--so when I was walking between tables I had to be really careful not the get stuck on any chairs, trip on the stairs, etc. Also, it was somewhat difficult to get all the layers situated when I wanted to sit down but any this was less of a problem than an inconvenience. Other reviews said the sleeves were a little tight, which was true, but they weren't uncomfortable at all. This truly was my perfect prom dress because it was exactly my style and it stood out in a sea of satin and bejeweled bodices!

Stunning. Fairytale. Bell of the ball.
Size worn: 12R
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Formal Affair
Runs true to size. If you have a bigger bust, be careful. Too much can be bad. Mine was just great. I have enough confidence in my body type to go with it.
We walked in late, and the doors to the ball were situated to the front. So when the double doors opened, there we were. In front of 300 guests. I could feel all eyes on my gown, and immediately was complimented from many women. Throughout the night, people found me, just to say how they admired my gown.
I felt like a princess, and my feelings radiated throughout the night. My husband knew I was feeling special, and in turn showed me off.
Gorgeous gown. With so many ways to accessorize.

I felt like a princess wearing this dress and I got SO many compliments! The dress was the perfect length to wear with flats. It was so classy and the perfect fit. The only part that was a little tight were the sleeves. But overall, I couldn't have asked for a more different and stunning prom dress.

Perfect dress for a Masquerade Ball! The compliments came all night long!
Size worn: 8R
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Formal Affair
This dress is stunning! Holy Boobs <-- yes, they will look fantastic in this dress! It fits a little snug around the ribs, but that just gives the girls a little boost. It was snug enough to get away without wearing a bra, and still feel comfortable and secure. I'm 5'6", so naturally I'm on the line between the regular and long fit. I went with the regular, and wore flat sandals under my dress, which just skimmed the floor (yay comfort for dancing the night away). If you are 5'6" and want to wear heels with this dress, I recommend the long! Also, this is my second rental from RTR, and I yet again struggled with the zipper, as did my husband. Overall, great RTR experience again!

You'll win best dressed, guaranteed
Size worn: 8R
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Formal Affair
The dress is complicated to get on, with two zippers and lots of tulle, which is probably why so many people describe it as running small. I was terrified I wouldn't fit in my usual size, but I was completely fine.
Prepare to be complimented all night long as the modern incarnation of princess Belle. This dress is unreal. I've been saving it to rent for years, and I'm so glad I did. This is a dress you won't forget and will want to keep, so make sure you wear it at an event that will be worthy of such an incredible gown.

Size worn: 4R
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Formal Affair
I have never gotten compliments on a dress like I did with this one! This dress was just as beautiful as I had imagined it would be and it fit perfectly. I was a little bit worried since my larger backup size was out for my dates, but the 4R fit like a glove even with a larger bust size. My heels were 3 inches high, and the dress just looked like it was floating. Best decision ever!

The chest/waist are as tight as advertised (if not tighter). The top has no give, so I wore the 6 instead of my usual 4 in order to get the ladies in! I wear a 30DD bra and my bust at its widest is 35". You cannot go wrong with this dress!

This dress was a dream!
Size worn: 4L
Overall fit: Small
Rented for: Formal Affair
I rented this dress for a black tie gala and was a little nervous since my backup size 6 was out. I ordered the 4R and 4L and figured I could wear the shorter version with flats.
I've never been into "princess"-type dresses, but this Reem Acra is really a stunner. It flows beautifully and the layers of tulle are to die for! I will say there is a lot more fabric than I was expecting. It was a little difficult to maneuver into the car so I could drive and I had to bunch it up while I sat to keep those sitting next to me from getting their chairs stuck on it (and to keep me from doing the same!). It was definitely worth it though.
For me this dress ran true to size, but I marked it as "runs small" because I have a smaller upper body. I don't think this dress would work well for an apple shape, but it would be great for pears or hour glasses. There is a corset inside the dress which holds you in nicely, but this (coupled with the very tight fit) could be problematic for those with who carry their weight in the middle or who have larger chests.
I'm 5'9 and wore 4 inch heels and the 4L dress just grazed the ground. With flats the 4R was just above the ground but I definitely could have pulled it off.

A Dress Rental You Won't Regret
Size worn: 8L
Overall fit: Small
Rented for: Formal Affair
The only other dress I've worn of this quality was my wedding dress! I felt amazing in it. I wore a size 8L and it was snug but not at all uncomfortable. If you don't like to show off "the girls" know that the top of the dress is better suited for small-chested women. I received dozens of compliments from complete strangers. LOVED IT!

Ethereal romance!!
Size worn: 12R
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Formal Affair
This gown is so beautiful, everyone loved it at our black tie Air Force Dining Out. I wore the 12 to be safe but had comfortable room in it even with my ample chest. I would call this true to size for hourglass girls who have smaller rib cages. If you need a little more space in the middle definitely consider sizing up.
I tried it with the stone necklace worn by the model (a seriously awesome piece!) but I preferred this vintage romance look which definitely borders on princess territory. I added an ivory sash and some bling for a little extra glamour.
I was so excited by this dress and it certainly doesn't hurt that several gorgeous actresses have sported it in the past. I had previously rented the green lace backed Reem Acra with disastrous results but this style was perfect for my body type. I danced comfortably in it for 4 hours. My pumps were another story!

Size worn: 6R
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Formal Affair
When I got the dress in the mail I was sooooo excited. Then, when I put it on, I felt like an absolute princess! I did not want to take it off! There were only two problems I had with the dress, the first, is that I have pretty large breasts so they were popping out of the dress a little...but it probably gave me more attention hahaha. Secondly, I took pictures in the grass and somehow bugs just loved the dress...it was basically a mosquito net, so I found myself having to constantly get bugs out of the layers...but if youre inside, this obviously won't be a problem. Anyway, I felt so beautiful, and I won best dressed form all the girls at prom, it was fabulous!

Beautiful dress
Size worn: 6L
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Wedding
I loved the way the dress holds the body right.
My breast is not very big yet it looked great in the dress.
The dress is definitely fuller than on the model.
It is very stiff and has plenty of body.
I added the black so I can wear it to a black tie wedding. Did not want to blend in with the bride.
People could not stop asking me where I got my dress from.
The only thing I did not like was the fact that I had to iron the skirt before the event. The many layers of soft tulle were wrinkly and did not look good when I got the dress in the mail.
I had to take the time and carefully iron each layer.

The fit is a bit small. I have a smaller waist so I expected the 2 to fit me but it would not even zip. I squeezed into the 4 and my boobs were practically falling out. There is a lot of poof - more dress than I could hold with one hand so that made it difficult to dance in. It looked incredible though.

It was a beautiful dress that I and everyone loved. It was more beautiful that I had hoped.
Size worn: 6R
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Wedding
It was a little heavy because of the lining and layers. It never wrinkled and was easy to wear; I had a normal strapless bra on and at no point had an issue with the dress moving or shifting on my body. The top is structured and held its shape. I was hot dancing in it though. I am a slender person, but I felt it made me look a little broad, but not too much. I had white flowers and slightly pink roses (that were suppose to be ivory) but it went very well together.

I rented this dress for my sorority's black tie formal. I had my eye on this dress four months before the event and it definitely exceeded my expectations! I had to wear the second size because the sleeves are small. I ordered the regular length and forgot to factor in wearing heels. However, it ended up working out because the dress didn't drag on the floor and it was easier to walk in. This dress is beautiful and if I could wear it everyday, I would!

Overall fit: True to Size

I loved this dress. I wore it to a black tie gala for an organization that had just elected me to the board. It felt really sophisticated and appropriate at the event--not just good for prom or wedding related stuff! I was nervous about the color but I think it was perfect on my very light skin tone.
The fit was great, although the layer under the tulle skirt was tighter than I had anticipated. I barely noticed a difference between the 4 and the 6 but went with the 6 because of this.

I wore this to prom and so many people told me I looked like a princess! I definitely felt like one!
Size worn: 2R
Overall fit: Small
Rented for: Formal Affair
This dress was amazing! The only reason I was able to wear it was because the day before my original order was supposed to arrive (I was going to wear the Heaven on Earth gown by Theia in size 0R) I received an email from RTR informing me that the woman renting the dress before me had not sent it back yet, so I had to choose another dress. This was the worst part about my RTR experience, but the upside was that I could choose any replacement regardless of the price! The fashion gods must have been in a good mood, because this dress was available so I jumped right on the offer! Like it says, this dress does run small, but for me the 2 was still a little too big. It might just be because I am so petite and have a very small chest area, but the back of the dress was way too big when I put the straps right on my shoulders. At first I had a mini-crisis because I thought that the dress wouldn't fit, but I realized the solution was to wear the straps off the shoulder, which I think looked even prettier than where they were supposed to go! Because I'm so flat, I decided to wear a bra to add some shape, but the only issue here was that you could see it when I bent over because the dress didn't fit perfectly. With four inch heals, it was a couple centimeters off the ground, which was perfect because there is so much material so you don't want to step on it. The dress ended up being so fun for prom! So many people came up to me to compliment me, and I felt so unique compared to all the tacky prom dresses that all look alike. It was fun to dance in, except when I got uncomfortable and took off my shoes I had to hold it up so that no one would step on it. With all that in mind, this is a great dress and RTR has really great service, but be prepared to have back up choices in case tragedy strikes, (and to return your dress on time so you don't ruin someone else's experience!), and also to be patient and make the dress work as best as you can.

Bc it runs big, the size 4 was perfect for her frame. The cap sleeves were a little restricting but totally worth the design. This dress is gorgeous! It was definitely a unique choice for a prom bc it's different from the super sleek blingy choices that most young ladies chose. With that said, Greta was a standout. She was in a completely different league; looking very elegant and classy.

You almost shouldn't wear a bra with this dress. When I first put it on I had a bra on until I realized it was a little more cleavage than I was comfortable with. The length was perfect as soon as I put heels on.

The sizing from this designer is a bit different. She has a line of wedding dresses and from what I've heard, wedding dresses normally run large. I was sent a 2R and that fit perfectly except one of the sleeves looked to have been altered and I could not for the life of me pull it up past my forearm. The 4R was way too long, but RTR sent me some fashion tape and I was able to shorten it. The dress was a bit worn; the elastic on one of the sleeves was stretched out so it kept slipping off my shoulder. But otherwise it's a beautiful dress. I felt like I in a fairy tale all night long. Everyone kept telling me how gorgeous my gown was.

This gown fit like a glove, perfectly complimented my skin tone, and was adored by my guests!
Size worn: 8R
Overall fit: Small

The dress is absolutely stunning, but has no stretch so ensure that you order up for your back up size. Although it may look heavy, its very light and airy, which was perfect for a long night of dancing!

This is a very special dress!
Size worn: 6L
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Wedding
This dress was sent to me as a backup. While I thought it was absolutely beautiful, it just wasn't right for the event I was attending. It was a little too special for a wedding. It did not stop me from snapping a few pictures in it! The dress fit beautifully. The boning really holds you in, but I have to admit I felt a bit like a linebacker with the sleeves. Not the most flattering on my swimmer shoulders. To the right event, this dress is a really winner!

All night I received compliments on how beautiful my dress was.
Size worn: 2R
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Formal Affair
I wore this dress to the Grammys this year and I couldn't have been happier. The fit was absolutely perfect and I got compliments all night. Several people came up to me to tell me they thought I was wearing the best dress of the night. It flowed beautifully and fit like a glove. I'm 5'4" and 110 lbs so I was worried that ordering a 2 would be a disaster (I'm pretty much always a 0), but it was perfect. Without heels the dress is too long to walk around with, so I wore some 3" heels and it was fine.
Worth every penny!

Too small, too short
Size worn: None
Overall fit: Small
Rented for: Other
I couldn't get it over my chest, even when wearing a size bigger than usual. It was also too short, which has never happened to me before. I had ordered the Long as well but it wasn't available for delivery. Too bad, because it's a pretty dress.

If you want to feel like a princess this is your dress! It is so elegant and fits beautifully!
Size worn: 4R
Overall fit: Small

I am always a size 2 and had to go up a size and wear the the 4. It is very snug in the ribcage area and the chest. There are so many layers of fabric on this dress it makes you feel incredible and very romantic!
