This was a Hail Mary RtR after my initial pick was cancelled at the last minute. So, I dealt with it being a little long by pairing with super tall block heels. Note it has a built-in bra, which may help the top fit more snuggly for smaller busts. I was oblivious to this, so I wore a strapless padded bra that worked well (enough). Most important, I felt amazing in it! 

Data a little big on top but wearable. Loved the elegance and color. Comfortable!

This dress fit me perfectly. It was ankle length on me which was perfect for this wedding. 

I reluctantly rented this as a backup for a formal wedding. It looked matronly in the listing and I wasn’t fond of the bow. All that went out the window when i saw it in person - it is a beautiful well-made dress! The bow was ironed flat and I preferred it that way. As to fit, it is a straight style, so I did wear a shaper short to prevent it from bunching up in the hip area. It may not suit a pear shape. The chest area was a little loose and the top of the bodice occasionally curled over slightly from wear most likely. I did have to twist the top once while dancing but I still enjoyed wearing the dress.

I absolutely loved this dress and would have joyfully worn it if it fit so I would size up at least one size. I'm almost always a size 4 dress with narrow hips and small chest and there was no way to get this zipped with at least 2 inches of gap around ribs. So one to 2 sizes up might be perfect for the top but may be big around waist and hips for me. 

Built-in bra for the win!! This was my back up bra but once I tried it on there was no question this was the choice— RENT THE DRESS! Classy and elegant with a touch of sass. Tons of compliments. 

Fit perfect!  Normally a size 4 and this was spot on.  Dress arrived in 1 day and was in great condition.  Do not hesitate on this dress.  It was perfect for my event!

Loved this for a black tie gala I was at for work. Didn’t want the full dress, but paired it with a warm sweater for winter. It was a hit! I could blend in with the wealthy women in their furs and the younger in revealing dresses. Perfect blend. Loved this Shoshanna classic. Fit beautifully. 

This was my first time renting w RTR and it was a great experience! The dress fit perfectly and unlike other strapless styles I’ve worn didn’t have a problem staying up. Got a lot of compliments! 

Wore this dress for a fun Gatsby themed wedding and absolutely loved it. Would also be great for New Years or a more formal event. The dress is quite structured and didn't have much give so might size up if I wore it again. 

Very comfortable and flattering. I always worry about having to pull up strapless dresses, but this one stayed in place the whole night

I got sooooo many compliments in this dress. The fit was perfect. I wore the size 8, couldn’t get the 6 zipped haha. Because of my height it was longer on me—to my ankles rather than tea length—but that made me like it even better and it fit the black tie vibe. I would absolutely wear this again and could recommend it to someone else who loved the gown. A 10!

This is a perfect dress for a formal event! 
It was originally a backup dress, but it wowed so much, I had to wear it! 
I ordered a 10, as it was the only one available. It worked, but I would have been more comfortable in my usual size, an 8. Unless you have a large bust, stick to your usual size. Despite being a bit too big, there was no real worry of the top falling be side there is a clip inside the dress just above the waist that keeps everything in place. I was able to dance all night without constantly having to pull the top up. Great rental! 

I wore this to a formal wedding. Stunning dress. The pictures don’t do it justice.  It fit very well except the top was a little big. I’m 5’ 2” so it was pretty long on me but I actually like that. It’s true to size. Definitely worth renting!

Got compliments. Comfortable and fit just right. This was a good one.

Loved everything about this dress! Fits tts and is so flattering. Definitely recommend. See more of my rentals on ig @itsminefornow 

I got so many compliments on this dress. I would go up one size if you have a tummy but the nice thing is the bow camouflaged that a bit. Because I went up one size it was a little longer than it appears in the stock photos but still so pretty. 

This was a great dress!  It fit perfect, only thing...it is a very long.  I I am 5'2 , so you can see how long it is.  Besides that I felt great in it.

Loved this dress! Runs a bit tight so I rented a 4 after first trying a 2. Lots of compliments

This was an absolutely stunning dress! I wore it to my son’s rehearsal dinner. I ordered my normal size. The top was a bit big but did not feel like I had to keep hiking it up all night. I loved it so much I wanted to wear it to a wedding the following weekend but cannot extend rental. 

Great dress! Felt comfortable and confident all night long! There is no stretch to the fabric so I ordered a size up. Normally wear a 10, the 12 was perfect. 

Nice Classy Dress - not to sexy, just right

I loved this dress! I sized up after reading other reviews and was glad I did. The bust was a little loose but not problematic. I loved the length and the overall fit - very comfortable for sitting and dancing all night long. I received a lot of compliments on this dress and would definitely recommend it for a formal event or wedding. Beautifully made and easy to wear!

Beautiful dress, thankful for the free second size. I needed to size up in this dress. 

Could not have been more perfect for a formal wedding. There’s no give but I had no issues sitting or dancing. Length hit just at the ankle for my height. Highly recommend. 

I should have sized down on this dress because the top was a little roomy but I used body tape to keep it up and that worked well.  It’s below the knee which makes it a bit more formal and the bow is attached so no constant re-tying!! 

This was a lovely dress and stood out from all of the other black dresses. Very form fitting and not much give. Probably in doubt size up. I made it work and got a lot of compliments (even after the event). No pockets though. I didn’t need a bra and didn’t worry about the top falling down. 

I really liked the shape! It makes the waist look smaller!

I LOVED this dress. If I had more formal events coming up I would have purchased it. It was form fitting but at the same time forgiving. I didn't have a problem eating or drinking all night in this dress. It was very comfortable and I received endless compliments. 

Perfect dress for a formal wedding. Lots of compliments, snug and body hugging which was slimming, but comfortable for eating sitting and dancing. Runs small. Would buy but I don’t have any more formal events coming up soon, and it is really pricey. Looks and feels expensive! Beautifully tailored.

Loved this dress so much, am now thinking of buying. The dress has a black and gold pattern and a big black bow so it’s perfect for black tie and black tie optional. Easy to dance in. Loved it!
