Overall a great dress and a great experience!
I wore this dress to a black tie wedding in June. It was definitely very flattering and I received a ton of compliments. There were about 3 layers of fabric so it hides all imperfections and showcases your curves. The length was a bit on the shorter side, I am 5'3" and ordered a 4P and a 4R and ended up going with the regular that just grazed the floor with 3 inch heels.

Not for the big busted!
I felt like I was going to fall out of this dress. The 12 was just a tad too big. Held it together with a safety pin and hid the area under my hair.

Fantastic fit, really made the evening!
I wore this to a 'Black Tie Optional' wedding and it was perfect for the night. The fit was a little long, but with the right heels it was fine. I am 5'3" and ordered the 2 regular. The zipper got stuck a little bit in the back due to excess fabric, but the quality of the dress was great. I received a lot of compliments throughout the evening, and while it was a snug fit, I was still very comfortable eating, having drinks, and dancing.

The dress was fitting but comfortable
It was a perfect fit. The dress was form fitting but comfortable so I could move and breath. I didn't need a bra because of the built in girdle. The only negative was there was a rip in the black underlying sheer fabric. It was in the back and it was symmetrical so it almost looked like it was suppose to be there. The room was dark so no one could notice it anyway.

Ordered this for a military ball.
It was very pretty but I couldn't wear it...it was very tight and could barely be zipped. I'm normally a size 2 in dresses and the 2L was far to small, so order up. Right size would look great I think though.

Wore this for a black tie event, it was so flattering and details was really pretty!
This dress was great! I originally received this dress and it had a small mark on it and came without the belt. I contact RTR and had a brand new dress the next day!! Great service and gorgeous dress, would definitely wear this again!

This dress is fantastic! I would wear it again in a heart beat. It felt beautiful and it fit like a glove. I would recommend this dress to anyone.

I felt absolutely amazing in this beautiful dress.
This is the first time I've used RTR. I wore this dress to my husband's military ball and I got a ton of compliments. It's a beautiful form fitting dress and I was happy that I could rent it for the night. Neither dresses came with the belt that's in the model's picture but I didn't mind. One thing I didn't count on is how warm the dress is. I actually got a little warm when I was getting ready so I didn't bring a jacket or anything out with me and I was fine. I'm glad I got the 2L as my backup because with 4 inch heels the 2R wouldn't have been long enough.

I got a lot of compliments on this gown. I felt glamorous.
The lining fastens like a bra in the back so I needed assistance getting dressed. Thank God I wasn't alone!
The lining also hangs a little longer than the lace at the hem. I found myself a bit self-conscious about that.

not for short waisted people
Beautiful dress. I am 5'8 but short waisted and 34 A bra. The top was too big, I would have needed to take in 1-2 inches off the shoulders to make a good fit. I couldn't wear it.

Gorgeous dress - sophisticated and still sexy.
Wore this to a black tie Harvest Ball where lace seemed to be the theme of the night, but this dress still stood out from the others. The detail along the shoulders and back is beautiful and the black satin belt brings the whole dress together.

It was my first time renting- I wore this for a black tie charity gala
The dress runs VERY short-- I am 5'5" and needed the long (regular hit my ankles) the dress is well made-- no bra needed as it has a built in corset. The ribbon/belt did not come with the dress (I bought a 1" piece of grosgrain ribbon for the belt) a 2L would've fit much more comfortably but was sold out.
The dress is lovely-- lace is very pretty for a classic formal look.
I would mention it was my first time renting (and a last minute idea) and I ended up having to order three sizes-- RTR was VERY helpful sending me a dress last minute overnight on the Thursday before the Saturday event. Customer service was terrific!

I ordered this dress for my fiancé's charity event.
Stunning dress, great fit. I agree with others who said it runs short. I'm 5'4" and with heels, the regular was ankle length! I may order the long size next time, which I've never done before! :)

Dress was flawless, elegant, sophisticated
I chose the dress for a formal awards presentation at my son's school. I am a News Reporter and the school Television News Club honored the local news media. It was the perfect dress to be a presenter as a mother and reporter. I got so many compliments!! It was elegant, sexy and comfortable. I am 5'8" and the "long" was just right with 3 inch heels.

Elegant dress for a winter event.
I rented this for a black tie fundraiser dinner. I liked the dress, but the 4 was too tight at my ribs and the 6 was a bit too large on top. The built in bustier made it easy to wear. The skirt has four layers, making it very warm.

So many complements!
I wore this dress to a fundraiser, and received many complements all evening. It is a beautiful dress and I seriously considered keeping it. It was very sexy and sophisticated. A size 2 fit like a (very tight) glove, I have no hips and it was tight in the hips - and was a little bit shorter than I would have liked when I wore 3 inch heels. However this worked out ok because the lace didn't get caught on anything. The lace pattern was beautiful and I love the back of the dress, make sure you wear your hair up and add a necklace, doing so makes such a difference. For anyone considering I would recommend to order an extra in your larger size, just in case. Would rent this dress again :)

Fun, formal affair.
Overall, this dress was true to size. It comes with a black ribbon belt, but I added my own sparkly belt to dress it up more. My only complaint is that the back gaped open a bit. I think it is because the "straps" were a little too long for my height. It was long on me, but I wore four inch heels and it ended up just right.

So many compliments!
I loved the dress and got tons of compliments throughout the night. I felt that the dress was a tad snug in my stomach area, but I think that I could've ordered a larger size. It was a little tight when I sat down. It fit my bust well. I loved my RTR experience!

Size 14 unavailable. Size 12 too small.
This dress was beautiful but the skirt fits very snug. If you have wide hips, order a size up. I usually wear a 12 in most gowns, but was unable to get into this one.

The gown was unique and figure flattering.
The lining was the part of the gown that was too tight in the size 6. The 8 was perfect.

I wore the 10 long instead of the 8 long and it was perfect. I wore 3-4 inch heels and it was the perfect length.

i received many compliments on this dress throughout the evening
the 6L would have been the perfect for me. however that size was not available so i had the 6R and 8L sent to me. The 6 R length only came to at the top of my ankle (i am 5'7) so i had to wear the 8L for length. however the 8L was a bit large in my chest area and there was a bit of extra fabric. Noone seemed to really notice though except me and I received many compliments on this dress. this dress looks WAY better on than it does on the hanger so just keep that in mind once you receive it in package!

Not for pears!
Lovely dress, not for my body shape. I rented a 4R to accommodate my hips, but the top was way too large, and the hips were still snug. Great for busty women or athletic builds. Good thing it was my backup!

AMAZING DRESS!
I got compliments all night long about how gorgeous I looked. The top was a little loose for me so I needed to wear a bra under the built in corset, but being 5'11" I needed a larger size (and the 14L was still a little short). I wanted to wear flats though for dancing, so it actually worked perfectly for me. I would definitely recommend this dress to anyone that is interested. Great to dance in and stands out all night!

I had originally ordered another dress and RTR didn't have it in the smaller size so they sent me this one and I went with it instead and loved it. My boyfriend loved it and I received compliments all night. I probably would have like the 6L better but I was happy to get in the 4L. Being 5'5 the length was perfect with my 4" heels. Can't wait to use RTR again!

I am 5'6" usually wear either a 10 or a 12. Ordered this in both. I could barely get the 10 on and over my hips and I have pretty narrow hips. The 12 fit well. I ordered the long and with two inch heels it was perfect. Loved the dress!

Great first time rental. Will rent again from RTR
The dress fit true to size and was truly gorgeous. I winded up wearing a different dress for my event. I loved the dress but I'm not used to wearing this style so I wasn't super comfortable but that's my own thing. It did look amazing and I would recommend it!

I am normally a 4 and if wouldnt zip. The 6 zipped but it was very tight and hard to move around in. I am 5'6 and if fit perfect with flats, i recommend to get a tall size if you are my height and want to wear heels

Perfect classy dress!!!
I ordered this dress for a black tie wedding right after Christmas. The 8L was a tad snug but the 10L was not available, but probably would have been a better fit for me. The length was perfect with my 2 1/2 inch heels. I saw a ton of reviews that said if you have a small chest, it probably would be big up top. Not the case at all. It fit my chest perfectly. No need to wear a bra with the built in support. I did wear my spanx for a little extra smoothness in the hip, tummy and butt areas. I absolutely loved this dress and really wanted to keep it!!! I received tons of compliments from the guests, bridal party and the bride!! This was my first time ordering from RTR and was extremely happy with my dress choice!! Will definitely be using RTR again. Thanks RTR!!

This dress was gorgeous, but way too short.
I'm 5'10" and even in the 8L, the dress was far too short for me to wear heels and even a smidge too short for me in flats. Otherwise beautiful dress, beautiful fit.

Black Tie Wedding in Manhattan
Fit like a glove! Absolutely stunning in person and received so many compliments. I'm shaped like a stick but I can see if someone was curvier then it may be snug in the bum/thigh area. I also can tell this because the size that fit me (OL) had a seam rip in the middle black fabric layer (between the black lace and tan lining) right where your hand drops at your side. No one could notice it except me so it wasn't an issue. I was worried about the length which is why I went with the L. The OL is long but I wore 5 inch heels which were perfect.

Beautiful dress but showing some wear and tear
I love this style of dress. If the dress was in perfect condition, I would give it 5 stars. The lace was really pretty and had enough stretch to make moving comfortable. This was the first dress I've rented from RTR that had very noticeable wear and tear. The ribbon belt was missing. Also, the lace has shrunk considerably, and the underlining hangs out. I had to pin it under by 2 inches. This also makes it difficult when knowing to order a long or regular. In general, I wear regular length even though I'm 5'8" with heels. Due to this dress having shrunk, I could have worn the long. The underlining was also torn along the side seem. The lace had several areas with loose strings. All in all, I liked this dress, but think it may be time to retire this from the rental rotation.
