The only reason I chose another dress was because this did t seem summery enough. Love the high-low and it’s the perfect height for low heels!

My usual size is 2; I liked the fit of the 0 better. The stock picture on RTR makes the bodice look navy and white striped. The “white” stripes are silver. And the bodice is sparkly. It is pretty but felt a little “prom” to me. Loved the overall fit of the dress. Great pockets. Overall a nice dress. 

This dress was so incredible!! I got so many compliments on it. It stayed up really well, was very comfortable, was great on the dance floor and I love the sparkly top part. Perfect choice for a fall wedding. 

The size 8 fit but was slightly larger and the 6 was a bit tight on me but I wore this one because it looked like a better fit. I got so many compliments on this dress. It did wear very hot as it was a humid outdoor wedding but I would wear this again 100%. Loved it 

This dress runs big. I wanted to wear it to a summer black tie wedding but ultimately wore something else because I was afraid it wouldn't be great for dancing 

Loved this dress but if you're petit go a size down and recognize it will be longer than it should be. Rented it for a southern wedding!

I felt elegant in this tea length gown, and the stripes at the top have some pretty, sparkly iridescence to them that you can't see in photos. I found the bust part to be a little larger than I expected and the skirt is quite full. 

I loved wearing this dress to a black-tie optional wedding. The fabric looked a little worn up close, but no one but me noticed. I was 25 weeks pregnant, about 135 pounds, and the 4 accommodated my bump well! I had no issues with the boning or bodice being too tight. I sized up from my usual 2, and I think expecting moms should size up one size--especially if you are busty. (I'm not and didn't need a bra.)

This dress was very pretty and I got lots of compliments on it at the wedding. It fit well, maybe a little tight at the bust part but I also wasn't wearing the right bra with it. Two things I wasn't a huge fan of, the dress is silver and navy, the silver looks a little ... dingy in person. I think it's just the material they used. You can see it doesn't look bad in photos though. Also I felt like the lining in the top part kept slipping out and I had to tuck it in. Again, maybe because of the bra I was wearing. But it's a great dress! 

I rented the same dress previously in a different color so I knew I liked the style and knew what size would work. I had to wear the size 10 to fit in the rib area. The bottom was a little more full than I would like, but overall looked fine. The size 8 would have been better overall fit but too tight in top section.

Very comfortable dress. Pockets great. Navy is a great color if looking for something other than black.

My biggest complaint about the dress was the zipper. It was really difficult to get the zipper to go up past the first layer of the silver/blue part. Once it got past that spot it was easy to zipper. I didn't have anyone to zip the dress for me so I wore the size 10 so that I could put the dress on backwards, then zip it, and twist it around. Would have gone with the 8 otherwise. Dress fit really well, didn't have to wear a bra. Was able to dance all night without it falling, it's nice and tight around the rib cage area. Got so many compliments on it all night!

I usually a size 0-2, however I was close to 7 months pregnant and in need of a dress for my work holiday party that wasn't the typical awful maternity floral. This dress was perfect because it is very flowly under the ribs so it can accomodate a baby bump or food baby perfectly. The dress was a bit more blue than I anticipated but really was a great option.

I have a smaller chest so I wore a padded strapless bra. Just had to pull up periodically. Great dress!!!

The bodice was very fitted and too tight to make a sit down dinner comfortable. Thankfully there was a lot of standing which was fine. I ordered a similar dress from shoshana (high-low, gown) in the 6R and the fit in the rib cage area was much more comfortable

Got compliments all night! Wonderful dress - don't be afraid to iron it ;) 
The wire will dig into your ribs when you sit down - but it's fine! 

Flattering fit! Someone else had the same dress at my event though, so maybe too perfect for the event. 

I thought from the stock photos and the reviews I read about the dress that the top was white and navy, but it is more a shimmery/silver color! The chest was pretty tight! But this meant that I did not have to wear a bra, and that the dress stayed up and I didn't have to keep pulling on it all night! If you are bigger than a 32DD this might be a little too tight for you! The length was good, a little long, but I am short so I knew it would be. I wore 3 inch wedges and I think it ended up looking great!

This dress was exactly what I needed for the wedding I wore it to. I initially thought the top of the dress was white and blue but it's actually silver and blue. I wasn't sure about it when I first got it but it ended up being perfect.

I've never gotten so many compliments on a dress! The skirt on this dress is flattering and simply perfect. I'm 5'3" and the length was a bit long on me, but still worked on my frame. The top looks white in the photo, but it's actually a silver metallic fabric. I'm usually a size 6 in dresses, but the top is snug so I wore the size 8 the night of event. Pockets are another plus of this dress. My only complaint is the dress had clearly been worn several times before it made its way to me - the ribs of the corset poked out of the top. It wasn't a huge deal, but if the dress had been brand new it wouldn't have been an issue. 

 The dress is non-fussy and easy to wear-  it even has pockets.   I did not need to wear a bra because the top is very supportive.   The only problem is that the zipper in the back is broken so I had to work some magic to get it on me and there is no give around the chest so a size 6 fit me perfectly but there was little room to spare 

I rented this for a daytime summer wedding that happened to be on a nearly 105 degree day. I went with the 8R and a 10R as a backup, and it fit true to size except maybe slightly big for me in the bust area (and I'm pretty large chested) but the length and fit was otherwise perfect. It looks white online but is definitely silver, so I paired it with silver strappy sandals, silver jewelry, and a silver clutch. The fabric seemed prone to wrinkles so you might need to press, otherwise a great choice that works well for all seasons.

Loved this dress, wore it for a wedding. Received many compliments

Love it !!! It has pockets !!!! Everyone loved it almost as much as I did!! 

Loved this dress for a formal summer wedding. Pockets were a huge plus, bc I could keep my phone and lipstick. I normally wear a 4 but wore the 2 in this dress and it fit great. Very comfortable and flattering. I could also see wearing this dress with a bump if you were looking for a dress like that. 

Fits fairly TTS. Great fit on top for my 34DD, which was awesome. Zipper was a bit tricky, just the nature of a worn dress and not so great zippers. The fit was super flowy past the chest, so not necessarily the most flattering dress possible but I liked the fit and got tons of compliments. The flowiness was lots of fun for dancing, and I loved the pockets. Pretty comfortable and easy to wear all night.

The length was perfect for me at 5'3", with back being just above floor length bare foot. It might've looked a bit more dramatic if I was taller, but I liked it the way it was. 

Turned out I even unknowingly matched my husband as we found out his groomsmen tux was navy the day before the wedding. 

Wore to a formal wedding and got many compliments even from people I did not know. Fits tight around the rib cage but a little bigger in the bust region. The material is actually pretty thick - it was quite warm in 75/80 degree weather! The top is more of an off-white/silver. Overall, loved the fit and design, super comfortable and fun to dance in!

Fit up top. Did not have to pull up all night. Great for small on top, hips on the bottom. 

I am 63 years old, hourglass shape, 36D.  5"6 and 150 lbs. The dress was so comfortable - loved the pockets - kept phone and lipstick in them. Did not wear a bra = top was snug so didn't need one. I wore it to a beach wedding on the Jersey Shore

Stylish and shows off the appropriate amount of skin to feel sexy without being sleazy. At 4.5 months pregnant this dress allowed me to eat and show off some curves without wearing a burlap sack. 

There is a corset like top and there is no need to wear any support. The zipper was a little tough and you need someone else to zip you in. Being 5'3" I feel the dress was longer than I wanted but it still worked with heels. It does have pockets! I felt my iPhoneX weighed the dress down when it was in my pocket. Received some compliments, always a bonus :)

This dress was fun and super cute. Great for a springtime wedding. The colors are great, and the fit is flattering. I'm 5'9" and the length was perfect with some heels. 

The band on the inside to keep the dress held up seemed stretched out, so I had some trouble getting the dress to stay in place. It took a couple of friends and some safety pins to secure it. Other than that, the dress was beautiful. The picture makes it look like a white stripe, but it is a bit more silver. And, I always love a dress with pockets!

Great dress for Miami wedding.  Im 5'3" and 120 lbs and the 2R fit perfectly.

Fit like a glove once hubs helped with the zipper.  No need for a bra or Spanx which is always a plus.  Danced a ton and the bodice didn't move an inch.  Paired with navy strappy sandals and sparkly blue jewelry, and got a TON of compliments.  Would totally rent again.

The dress fit really well. I felt it was a good choice for a black tie optional wedding. The dress is made out of quality material but you could tell it's been worn many times.

This dress is GORGEOUS! I couldn't get over how pretty it was. Unfortunately the event I had rented it for got cancelled so I only wore it to see how it fit. The chest part where it's striped has silver lurex throughout the weaving so it's pretty sparkly. The chest also has zero stretch and I would say really only comfortably fits up to a C cup. The con to this dress though is the stomach area--it make me look like I was pregnant, even when I stood up straight with perfect posture. I think on me in photos I would have really looked like I was pregnant. Otherwise though it was beautiful!

Made a hat to match it. Looks white but the strips at actually gray. Very heavy material.

Love the stress and the thickness of the material. Fit the 10 but it was a little tight across my rib cage and I didn't want to be uncomfortable. I wore the 12 but I did feel like it was a tad bit baggy. No one seemed to notice and I got a bunch of compliments and felt beautiful. Great dress would rent again.   The asymmetrical him helps if you're unsure about the length.
