I would definitely rent the dress again - it was beautiful, flattering for my body type, and easy to move around in. Like others have said, it does fit small in the arms and upper body area; it's not stretchy at all, so go up a size than usual.

I initially ordered this dress in my size and one size up, but when I received them, they both had holes in the underarm area. Fortunately, the excellent RTR Customer Service was able to send me replacement sizes and even allowed me to change them to 1 and 2 sizes up and I ended up wearing the dress that was 2 sizes up. Even though it was a little loose in the waist, it was much more comfortable in the arms. It was great to dance in all night and I'd definitely rent it again!

I loved this dress! I ordered it for a Christmas party and it was absolutely perfect. The skirt is fun and full, the bodice has lace. The sleeves were a little too tight. The bodice has a nude underlay and the arms are just lace. Overall, perfect! And I got TONS of compliments. Perfect with a black, nude, or metallic pump.

i totally agree with the reviews that say the sleeves are tight. so i did size up and ended up wearing the bigger size. overall the dress was great and i loved it!

I almost always wear a 0 from RTR but the arms on this were TIGHT. I couldn't even get them over my biceps, so I was glad I had ordered the 2 for my backup size. The 2 fit perfectly. The dress was a gorgeous cranberry color in person, which was ideal for the holidays. I highly recommend this - one of my favorite rentals!

Loved the fit! got so many compliments. very classy!

I wore this to 2 work holiday parties - it was the perfect balance between professional and festive! It actually looked better in person than in pictures. I am usually a size 2-4 and wore a size 4. The dress runs really small (especially the sleeves - they were seriously cutting off circulation on my biceps!).  The lace was my favorite part!

I loved this dress! I wore it to a holiday party for my SO's work.  

The dress was a little snug. The sleeves were very tight on the guns! I wore a 4 but would have probably felt more comfortable in a 6. I would recommend going a size up for your back up dress.

The sleeves are tight! I don't have the biggest arms, but I don't have the smallest arms either. I had to go up a size just to get my arms in the sleeves. I also needed help with the zipper in the back and the hook & eye. Otherwise, this was the perfect little dress! 

This dress was beautifully made, I got tons of compliments at my husbands work Christmas party. I'm wore a 6 but could have worn an 8 due to the arm sleeve size. Highly recommend going one size up for the backup! 

Runs small in the arms. The lace is not very stretchy either which made it difficult to get on and off. The zipper also had a habit of sticking right over the black belt detail. The color and design were fun and elegant, would wear again! Just size up next time. 

I rented this but decided on a different dress I rented because it was a bit more comfortable.  This was a very pretty dress but like many of the other reviews said, the sleeves were extremely tight and limited my mobility in my arms, which is the main reason I didn't wear it to the party.

I wore a larger size than usual, and it was still tight. Not as flattering as I had hoped. I felt the pleats in the skirt, made my bottom half look bigger...but perhaps I have already gained a few holiday lbs!  The arms were tight, which I had expected, I have worn this style before. But it was also tight across the back, like hard to reach forward.  It worked for the night though.  And I received many compliments. Overall happy with it for one night. 

Perfect For a Fall Wedding - Received Many Compliments! I am a size 4 and I rented the 6 as a backup because I read that the sleeves were tight. The 4 fit me like a glove and the arms were very snug (no give to the lace at all), so I ended up wearing the 6 so the sleeves weren't as tight and the waist was not as tight (room for drinks and food!). I loved the quality of the material, it was nice and thick. The skirt was a good length and fun to dance in! The color is also a bolder color in person, which I loved. Overall, I am glad I sized up because I was able to stay comfortable all night with many drinks and cake. 

This dress was overall fairly comfortable but the lace in the arms was very tight so make sure to size up. 

The dress is pretty and I got lots of compliments, but I wish I ordered a size up. The sleeves and waist are SUPER TIGHT. 

First of all I absolutely loved that dress, the fabric is so soft and the cut is flattering. 
The down sides are that the sleeves and chest areas are extremely tight. There was limited motion in the arms because of how tight it was.  I read the reviews and went with everyone's advice ordered the dress a size bigger and the backup dress was two sizes bigger. I am normally an 8 but ended up wearing the 12 for comfort. 
I would recommend this dress for anyone!!

The waist was true to size. It fit me perfectly, very form fitting. I loved the material of the skirt, as it was a bit heavier than I expected, making it feel and look more expensive. The color was lovely as well. A very deep burgundy red, with blue tones as opposed to orange, perfect for a holiday party.

The only drawback, as others have mentioned, was the sleeves. The lace looked lovely, but there is absolutely no stretch at all, and even with a very slender arm, it is very difficult to put on, and impossible to raise your arms above your head once the dress is on. The rest of the dress was so lovely, that I managed to still love it throughout the party. I just had my husband reach for things for me. 

Overall, I would recommend, if you don't plan to dance too wildly in it.

Dress is very elegant and fits true to size. It was a little snug at the bust, but I could still wear it no problem. I recommend!!

Gorgeous dress! The color, quality and details are great. I would give it 5 stars if it didn't run so small. There were no reviews when I rented and barely (luckily) squeezed in to the 2 which typically would not be an issue. Many compliments on it and I loved the convenience of not having to shop/pay for a formal dress that I'd probably only wear once anyways. 100% recommend, but order 1 or 2 sizes up for sure.
