This dress had some stretch to it so I was able to wear the 2.  With that said...this dress was showing major wear.  The mesh on the neck was pulling away from the straps and there was no belt.  There was also a tear by the lace in the zipper.  I'd recommend this dress for a rental but just. It the one I was sent.  It was beautiful and fun to try.

I ended up renting this dress last minute when my original pick was unable to be shipped. I was so glad that the other dress didn't work out, because this one was amazing! Thankfully, when I ordered it, my regular size 4 was unavailable, because otherwise I would have never rented the 6 which fitted perfectly. The zipper was a little stiff at the top, but with a little persistence it zipped all the way. The color was perfection. The picture online is an accurate representation of how the dress looks in real life. The lace is beautiful, with the delicate sleeves and scalloped edges at the hem and sleeves. Although the dress is quite fitted, it was extremely comfortable for a full night of picture taking, eating dinner, and dancing. This was a "hotter" dress than I am used to, but it was still very classy. It's also very flattering. I never wanted to take it off. Prepare for complements! You will look like a model.

The vibrant red color is amazing and the lace is of high quality. However, the layers beneath are very hard to manage. There is a tan bottom layer and a red tulle second layer, then the outer lace layer. None of the layers are attached to one another so the tulle layer underneath rides up, exposing the tan layer. And the tan layer tended to crumple around my hips, so I was constantly adjusting it. Also, the see-though mesh at the top in the front had been stretched by previous renters and it didn't lay nicely flat on me, which mean it could be seen and was awkward. It was also very tight in the chest for me and I'm only a 32B, so if you're busty, definitely size up! 

This dress was so beautiful! It was very comfortable and although the nude mesh across the chest seemed a little strange at first, I eventually didn't even notice it and it kept the lace in place on the shoulders so I didn't have to worry about them falling down. It does run a little small, so I went up one size and it was perfect. I got so many compliments on it throughout the night! I would say the only downside is how there are 3 different layers and it got a slightly annoying keeping them all straightened out while dancing all night, but it really wasn't that bad. Definitely my favorite rental so far!

I received this dress as a backup when the dress I ordered had been damaged and I am SO glad I did! I had been drooling over it for awhile, but it was a little out of my price range. I wore it to a wedding and it felt like every person in attendance had something nice to say about the dress. It's truly stunning - pictures definitely don't do justice to the details and the vibrant red color. The fit was a little small - I would suggest sizing up since I usually wear a 2 or 4 and went with the 6 for this one. There is a mesh at the top of the dress, which is great since it allows you to wear it without worrying about the sleeves falling down. I'm already scheming about how I can buy or rent this one again! 

Got compliments all day. The side zipper is a bit of a pain. Beautiful and very flattering. 

Thought the dress was pretty but it does run very small. I normally wear a size 8 and had to go up to a 12 in this dress. Also the right arm hole area was much larger and looser than the left side  

This dress runs small.  I'm usually a size 6 and I barely fit into the 8.  It also had 3 layers to it; the red lace, the tan slip, and then a red slip and it was hard to keep them all at the same length.  I was pulling at the dress the entire night.  The color was stunning but  I just didn't feel comfortable.  I wore nude shoes and had a nude clutch.  

Pros: The material on this dress was just so beautiful (both the detail of the lace and the color) and it is very stretchy so was super comfortable.  Cons: there is flesh-colored mesh above the bust line that makes it difficult to adjust undergarment lines etc.  It is also really best on ladies with completely flat stomach.  My stomach is fairly flat but not flat enough that some of the pics were quite unflattering.  I also had to size up a size but knew that would be the case from the other reviews. 

This dress was absolutely gorgeous! There is a nude mesh on the chest and back which you cannot see in photos but helps keep the lace in place. This dress is TINY I normally wear a size 8 and had to wear a 12 in this dress. The length was perfect for being 5'9 and I received SO many compliments. 

It shows cleavage, but not an obscene amount. The sheer mesh across the bodice tones it down. I should also mention that it had enough support to go braless, but mainly because it was tight across the chest. I'm sure if I'd been able to fit a bra under it the cleavage would have been much more obvious. 

I ran into a snafu with the original dress I rented for this wedding and had to have an alternative overnighted to me. When the alternate didn't fit I thought I was completely out of luck, but RTR pulled through and managed to overnight me not only this dress, but two other dresses (with backup sizes for the other two styles)
This particular dress was a dream rental, but was only available in one size, so I was nervous to try it on and saved it for last out of the seven (!!!) that arrived at the hotel the morning of the wedding!

There was a struggle and a moment of panic zipping it up, but as long as you have a friend (or two) to help you, you shouldn't have any issues. The zipper's on the side, and with the delicate mesh overlay, it's a little awkward to reach/hold the dress together.

As I said, the 4 fit me well. I'm usually a 2, but with designer sizes tend to err on the side of caution and size up. In this case I'm glad I did. I ended up not being able to wear a bra, but felt supported and secure throughout the night. I was very comfortable, and received an insane amount of complements. 

Cons: The belt slips! I couldn't find an effective way of preventing it from loosening throughout the evening. As a result, it wasn't the most slimming/flattering look in a lot of photos (see photo #3) so I'd probably wear some sort of shapewear if I rented it again! 

The color is as it looks on the site -  a stunning and vibrant shade of red. It fits true to size, so if you are  a 0, the 2 will work perfectly for you. The belt cinches at the right place, creating a beautiful line and flattering your shape. The chest and the back are really beautiful, showing off just enough to make it sexy, without being overdone - there is a nude overlay that goes across the back and the chest so that the sleeves stay in place. If you have rented the yellow Reem Acra on this site, then you know those sleeves are a pain in the ___ to keep up, so there are no worries with keeping these sleeves in place.  I had originally ordered the yellow Reem Acra for my birthday, but the dress was damaged by the previous renter, so RTR came to my rescue and allowed me to rent any dress available on the site - I got this beauty and I seriously didn't want to return it. Thank you RTR for a beautiful birthday dress!

This dress is stunning. It came as a replacement dress for a dress that was damaged so I was thrilled to get to try this on! 
The pros: gorgeous color and beautiful lace. 
The cons: some of the lace was peeling off in back. Did not come with belt as pictured (but I didn't really mind that). The tan "slip" (for lack of a better word) bunched up and you could see it underneath the lace. 

Overall I thought it was a great dress just not worth the normal rental price. If you are normally a 0, go with the 2 as his definitely runs a touch smaller than other dresses I've rented. 

Everyone really liked the dress, but it ran small! I am normally always a 6 and this was a 10. 

This dress is amazing. It fit me perfectly and I received compliments all night. It was a little tight on top but has a little stretch to it so it was still very comfortable. I would recommend going up a size if you have a bigger chest. 

This dress looks absolutely gorgeous! It looks and feels very classy and expensive. I took a pic of the top part so you can see the beautiful details. The color is sure to stand out at a wedding and would be perfect for a valentine's day date. I didn't end up wearing it to my event, because it was a little tight for my chest area. I usually wear a size 8, so it zipped up perfectly until that area. I had my roommate Lexi model it for you guys so you can see this beautiful, new dress on a person. She's 5'9 and a size 4, but we still had a hard time zipping it around that area as well, so the dress itself is probably best for anyone with less than a 34 rib cage. It was loose on her tiny waist, so I wouldn't say that it runs small in any other way. We also had our size 0 roommate try it on and she is between a 32- 34 and it was loose on her!
