Great dress! It gave me that elegant vibe that I was looking for and I felt like a Victorian princess while running down stairs/hallways. It is a bit loose around the tummy area but it was perfect for me because it wasn't too tight while I was dancing. 

The bust area of the gown runs large and has a lot of fabric. I wore a bra, and throughout the evening and the center part of my bra was visible. I would recommend not to wear one if you could get away with it because there is ample fabric. Overall, the gown was beautiful and I enjoyed wearing it!

I was a bridesmaid in a wedding and the only parameter on the dress was color. I was able to find this beautiful blue/teal dress. At first I wasn't sure about it. But it's gorgeous and flows really nicely. I liked that I didn't need a special bra for it either. So many compliments! I wore the 4 R and could have done a 2. 

I wore this to a formal wedding and it was STUNNING! A girlfriend kept telling me I looked like a goddess. Comfortable and fit like a dream.

As a conservative and busty woman, I have a hard time finding necklines that do not overexpose me or make me look bigger. This neckline was actually quite flattering and made my short neck look long and lovely. The color was also stunning. I did make a mistake of ordering the "long" one although I am only 5'3", so just make sure you choose the right length for you. 

Loved this dress. It was a tight zipper, but fit perfectly. We had a photo session and I rented it for that. The color is gorgeous. 

I wore 4" heels, and the regular length worked perfectly. 

Wore this to my prom a couple years ago and it looked amazing! I'm somewhat petite so it was *slightly* large around the bust, but I'm still saying it fit true to size because overall it did fit very well and looked beautiful. Looks great on fair skin too.

The dress was a beautiful color and fit great!
I wore shoes I already owned that are about 3 inches. The dress was about an inch too long. The bust area was a little loose and gaped just a bit.

I wore this dress to my senior prom. The quality exceeded my expectations. I did have to wear my highest heels because the dress was very long on me but it wasn't a huge issue. It was less of the baby blue that I had expected and more beachy. I chose this as my backup dress when I placed my order but ended up wearing it because it was just so flattering!   

I wore this for my engagement photos, the dress fit great and I love how my photos turned out!


This dress was beautiful - got a lot of "greek goddess" comments. I wore a 2R, I'm 5'3 / 125 and it fit well -  a bit long even with 4-5' heels, but I liked it a lot! I'd definitely wear it again - it was perfect for a professional gala and left me plenty of room to breathe, *eat*, dance, and flow. 
The boob area was a bit loose, but room for sticky or other bras - or no bra if you have big boobs to fill! 

Rented this for our daughter who wanted a pastel to go with her then-pink hair. Unfortunately the dress was very tight, but it was still amazing. She got compliment after compliment. Instead of wearing a bra, she used Hollywood tape to keep her dress in the right places. She is very large busted and while the girls were certainly on display, the dress was still tasteful. 

This fit as expecting and is flattering in the right places.  Best part is you can wear a bra without it showing at all!

The dress is a great color. I received compliments all night. It slimmed down my hips while accenting my waist. However, the chest area was too loose on me so I had to wear two bras to fill it out. 

I wore this for a cousin's wedding. It was a great dress—my first rental. Very flowy and ample room in the hips. It was a bit low cut for me, a C cup, but with a little garment tape I was good to go! Comfy for all night wear. I'm 5'7" and the dress just barely hit the floor in flats, so I didn't trip over it all night even though I wasn't wearing heels most of the night. I would totally rent again. 

We were a little nervous, as this was our first rental and it was for my daughter's senior prom.  But the dress arrived on time, the system for shipment is great, and the size that she usually wears--size 6L--fit perfectly.
She wore 2.5" heels with the dress and it was like it had been hemmed for those shoes.  We really got lucky.  The color is very pretty and she received many compliments.
When I zipped it up, it fit her absolutely perfectly.  The style was very flattering.

I wore this dress for  July outdoor wedding and it was the perfect airy dress for the occasion. The mid section is great because of the cross and the fabric doesn't show any sweat. The long is a bit long. I wore wedges and I am 5'10 and it still hit the ground. Definitely true to size and the zipper does get stuck around the fabric changes, but wasn't a huge problem. I did not wear a bra with this and I danced all night in this dress. Had the best time. 

Dress fit well and was perfect for occasion

This dress was great! Comfortable and I was able to wear my regular bra! It was a little bit lower cut than I'm used to, but wasn't inappropriate. The petite size was still a bit long on me (I'm 5'3"), so I had to wear pretty high heels, but overall it was a great dress and I'd definitely rent it again! 
(My profile won't update, so here are my details: I'm 5'3", 155lbs, 38B bra size and I'm hourglass body type, but with a tummy from baby weight I haven't lost since having a baby.)

You couldn't ask for a more comfortable dress. I loved the way it flowed at the bottom and I loved the color for spring. I wore 3" heels and the length was just right. You can easily wear a regular bra with this dress. 

I wore this in my engagement pictures. If you're busty it'll show a lot of cleavage. Thick material so its feasible to go braless which never happens! I am very pleased.

I wore this dress for a fancy gala and it was amazing. Ironically, this was my third choice for dress and the two I wanted were unavailable. But when I tried it on, it was even better than it looked on the hanger or picture. The fit was flattering to my shape and I didn't need any shapewear underneath. The length was very long and even in high heels it brushed the floor. I was a little worried I'd step on and rip the bottom, but everything was fine. The color looked great with my hair color and eyes. All in all a resounding success.

The dress fit true to size. It was long on me even with very high heels. I'm 5'4", but did not want to order petite in case the proportions were not correct for me. I received many compliments on the dress. I did not need to wear a bra with it, as it has plenty of fabric and the dress holds you in.

The front is cut pretty low for a full busted woman like me who has to wear a bra (32HH) so be ready with safety pins.  You can probably see the little white bow in the picture.  I am a real sized 12 but needed a few centimeters room to get it zipped all the way up so I wore my long lined bra and it zipped up just fine.  The 14 was too big and droopy around the arms and bust.  This dress is so beautiful.  I wore it to a beach wedding and it was perfect. It looks beautiful twirling around on the dance floor.  I am 5'6" and the dress definitely touches the floor.  Even with my heels, my feet were still covered.  Beautiful dress, will absolutely rent again.  

This dress was very comfortable to wear.  It's a very well made garment and I felt like I was floating on air when I walked in it.  The ruching on the bodice felt a little bulky to me, but still a very pretty silhouette.  

This dress fit perfectly - although the zipper stuck a bit.  I normally wear a 16 so it was very true to size.  With a 38D bust I hardly ever get to go bra-less.  But when I tried this on with a bra it didn't fit quite right.  Surprisingly, it looked much better without a bra!  I highly recommend this dress and would totally rent it again.  

I rented the 12L & 14L for a formal event at work. I wore the 14 because it gave me more comfortable space in the ribcage and tick more length, but I could have worn the 12. I went without a bra (again for rib space). I'm only a B so there was a little gaping because I didn't fill it out all the way, but the dress provided enough support. I'm 6'1" and the dress was perfect length; I wore 2 1/2" heels. It was extremely comfortable, light and flowy. The picture has weird lighting from the event venue, but it's a "Cinderella" silver/blue color. Great for dancing . The gathering under the bust does wonders with giving you a defined waist and hiding a tummy

This was my first RTR experience and I am so happy! I got the 4R as a backup size because sometimes my chest is a size 0-2, but my hips are a size 2-4. However, the 2R fit absolutely perfectly. The zipper is a little hard around the ruching in the mid-section, but other than that the dress was easy. I decided to wear a bra with the dress just for extra support, even though there are cups sewed in. It definitely enhances your breast size/gives you extra cleavage so beware of that if you are going to a more conservative event. The 2R was long when I didn't have shoes on, but with my 4" heels it hovered just above the ground. The flowy fabric made it easy to dance in and I didn't have to worry about adjusting the straps or anything all night.

Loved this dress! It fit me in all of the right places, I'm a little busty so finding dresses that fit me right everywhere is tricky. The neckline was very flattering and I received complements all night. If you have blue eyes, this color will look amazing on you!! 

The dress was beautiful. The girls didn't want to stay put and the zipper was a little tricky, but overall a fun dress.

(I'm the one on the right in both pics) Okay, so confession time. I ordered the 14 and the 16, and decided to wear the 14. On the day of my prom, I grabbed the 16 and took it to my friend's house to get ready and didn't realize, so I ended up wearing it. So, yes, it was quite big on me and that's because it really was the wrong size. 
Anyway, as I said, I wore this to my senior prom, and I really did like it. I was worried it'd be too pale of a color and wash me out because I'm pretty fair, but it wasn't and I really liked the color. A little more of a dusty blue than the pic, I'd say. The neckline does go down pretty far, but I liked the cleavage it showed, and you can definitely pin it if you want. The gown was a little long for me even with the Regular and 2-3 inch heels, but what can you do. I do admit that I thought the middle wrapped part would be more form fitting. Even in the 14 it didn't really cinch me in the waist like I thought it would. The fabric was pretty heavy, not too much that I couldn't dance, but there's a LOT of it.  I was also worried about the top not fitting, because I'm a 34G, but it had a little give, and I fixed the gapping on the side with some safety pins. Overall, a great dress, and a great first-time rental experience. 

Dress fits truth to size. Easy to wear. Loved the color against my skin tone really popped. The 16r would have fit much better. I did not receive the back up dress I needed. It was due to it being damaged. I wish I had the back up. I looked great and felt great, fit my body type well. 

It's flawless, I wore it to my high school prom and everyone said it's so pretty! 

6L - 5'9" 148 lbs 
This dress fit well except for a gap around the armpit area. Ran true to size or slightly larger. Very comfortable all night and dancing wasn't difficult even with the length. Numerous comments on how beautiful the dress was. 

This dress was absolutely perfect for my event! It feels and looks great! It is tight in all of the places you would want it to be and it flows beautifully from the waist down. I highly recommend this to anyone thinking about renting it! I was getting compliments all night long!

Very comfortable.  Looks great on fair skin.  Great material.  Wore for a black tie gala.

I wear an 8, and the 8 was too big for me, but this is a beautiful dress, and I wish I had ordered a 6!

It fit true to size and flattered my figure! It was great for a spring wedding because the color just screams spring time, you don't have to worry while dancing, and it's just so beautiful! I was complemented so many times and felt like a modern day Cinderella going to a ball!
