true to size.

I loved this dress. I felt amazing in it. It was flowy and perfect. I'm glad I ordered the long. The "bodysuit" makes it sexy and still comfortable. I would OWN this dress.

I rented this for a wedding. the customer service was great about sending this to me on a Saturday at my hotel after my original dress didn't fit. Im either a 2 or 4 but the only size available was the 2R. It zipped but was a tiny bit tight where the black band was- there is no stretch there. I didn't end up wearing it bc it was a little too lightweight for the occasion, but I would definitly rent it again for a summer wedding Pros- makes smaller chested girls look busty. the size Regular is great for shorter girls. I had a pair of 3 inch heels and I couldnt believe it but though the dress was a little too short for heels that high. I NEVER have that problem. The great thing about this dress though is that it would look great with a pair of gold gladiator flats. If you are over 5'4 I would get the long if you plan on wearing heels Cons- the dress looked worn. Since the material is thin the gold threading was all over and sticking out. I wouldnt care for one night but the fact that this dress is so $ retail is crazy. the slits that are mentioned are high- I tried to show how see through the skirt was in my pic too so people are aware. Its too bad that its like snap bottom shorts and not just a mini skirt underneath. The shorts under are silky and looked really worn. Overall though it was pretty and very different.

this dress was absolutely stunning - perfect for destination wedding. 0R was too short for me, so i had to wear with flats. otherwise fit well, could have gone with a 2L also. you could tell the dress had been worn quite a few times - the gold thread were a little frayed in some spots, and the shorts part of the lining were no connected at the crotch, which was fine. that's the only reason i'm not giving it 5 stars. loved the dress and got tons of compliments!

I loved everything about this dress...until I put it on. I was really looking forward to wearing this to an all-day brunch event on vacation in South Beach, but unfortunately I couldn't wear it at all! The slip that is built in to the dress was WAY too short and didn't cover a thing! Had I known ahead of time, maybe I could have improvised by wearing my own nude colored slip to cover my butt (the dress material is completely sheer), but with limited options packed for vacation I had no choice but to return the dress unworn. Slip issues aside, I also would have preferred if the black band was tighter or had the ability to be cinched in, since it hung a bit loose and baggy around my waist. This is more of a personal thing, since I prefer a more defined waistline! I'm curious if other people experienced a similar issue with the slip being too short underneath? If so, what did you do to improvise?

Pretty true to size but I'm 5'7 and glad I got the dress in a long!

Fit was great, loved the flowiness and built-in romper slip!

I love this dress, and they way it felt like nothing was on. I just noticed that it made my hips appear much wider than they were! Still I rocked it and everyone loved it! I did wear it with flats and got the Regular, and it was still just above my ankles.

I typically wear a size 6, but with dresses like this I could go down to a 4. It was just perfect. The under slip was actually shorts, which was a huge bonus! I felt comfortable and sexy at the same time.

Loved this dress! It was absolutely gorgeous and I got several compliments at my event. Also, I wore it with a chunky turquoise necklace and it looked perfect! Actually, I might have received more compliments on the necklace than the dress so I'm posting a link to the jewelry designer's website too in case you want to get the full look LOL. (Link to jewelry designer of necklace: http://www.llkdesigns.com/) Thanks RTR for yet another awesome dress!

I rented the 10L and went barefoot for this beach wedding. I am 5'7" and the dress was floor length, but not too long. So if I had worn heels, it definitely would have been too short. The style of the dress is gorgeous and flowy, the side slits add sex appeal, but the shorts underneath keep you from a wardrobe malfunction. I am full busted, and there was plenty of room in the dress. It does come down low on the sides, so my strapless bra was visible on the side when I lifted my arms. Now, for the condition of the dress... it was missing the hook above the zipper, the zipper itself is on its last legs, and the (non-removeable) belt is frayed. This is not noticeable unless you look closely, but just a heads up. All in all, the perfect dress for the event, I looked exactly how I wanted to!

Be ready for dozens of compliments. It makes your bust look so much bigger which is always great, and the length was perfect. Flows when you walk and glitters so sparkly. This is an awesome dress!

Really loved wearing this dress. Only issue is I ordered late so they didnt have the size 4 availiable. The 2 I received was too small and the 6 was a bit too big... But loved this dress

Dress fit great, I would say if you have a larger back end then most maybe to get the long. The slip underneath was too short for me, but the length was perfect, luckily you could not see through the material so it was fine. I received so many compliments and the dress was so comfortable. It was perfect.

I am between an 8 and 10--because of my big belly apple shape. The cut of this dress was great for that, although beware of the waist/sash--it's fitted and has no give. But it falls above the natural waist, empire-style which makes it good for hiding bellies. It was very nice for the event, kind of magical and shimmery feeling, long and elegant. The shorts underneath were tough to snap--felt like I had to be a contortionist :-) And they didn't stay snapped the whole time. I perhaps would recommend wearing blush or skin-colored tap pants of your own underneath. It was very comfortable, could fit a range of bust sizes (not *super* big though, because it doesn't stretch, but it is loosely draped on top), and comfortable to dance in and eat in. I really liked it. Also I'm 5'2 so if you are tall it might be too short for you. My heels were only about 3" and it was just right for me.

I rented this for my birthday date night with my husband. The dress was perfect for the hot night. The gold shimmer isn't too sparkly, just the right amount. The slits on the skirt aren't too revealing and the shorts underneath snap open and shut so it's not a big hassle if you need to go to the bathroom (thats why I hate wearing rompers!)

This dress was out of my comfort zone as I usually do not wear many patterns, but it was a great dress for a wedding in Lake Tahoe. It flowed in the breeze and I received a lot of compliments on the look. Beware, the dress had been worn many times and as a result the belt was falling off & the gold flecks were sticking out of the material. I placed another belt over the ribbon belt to hold it in place. I would also echo the other renters as the dress was much shorter than I would have liked, but the long was not available when I rented.

I had a difficult time picking a long dress to wear off of the RTR website because, being only 5'00", everything was bound to be dragging on the ground even with 4 inch heels on. Luckily, I'm happy to say that this dress was perfect. In the model's picture, the dress looked like it was a few inches off the ground -- I was able to wear about 3 inch heels and the dress was only an inch off the ground and had no issues at all with dragging. I like the "dress almost down to the floor" look anyway, so it worked out. Both the 0R and 2R dresses I received had zipper issues -- one the zipper kept getting stuck halfway up the dress and required both my husband and I to zip it up, and the other the zipper was starting to detach from the dress. They still technically worked and din't take away from the aesthetic of the dress. Also, because of the pattern, any issues w/ the fabric wasn't very apparent. The gold threads running through the dress would sometimes fall out, but you can't tell with the busy fabric. The dress is also very flowy, so it was great in hiding that extra stomach after eating lots of food. Overall, I got many comments about how nice the dress was and two people even pulled me aside and asked me where I got it!

This is my least favorite of all the dresses I have rented so far and here's why. The material on both the dresses that were sent to me was kind of beat up. The metallic threads were coming loose and it looked worn out. My bra was showing on the sides which bothered me. The slits were too high so I had to safety pin them. The material kept catching on my shoes. It just wasn't all I hoped it would be. I got compliments on it but I didn't think it looked that great.

Loved this dress for how different it was and comfortable. Probably one of the more comfortable dresses I have rented. I did have a problem with the length. The long was too long with 2 inch heels and the short was too short with flats. But I just picked it up while dancing. And I did find the necklace pictured with it even though you can not rent it anymore. I fell in love with it and had to have it. I found it on amazon by luck because I had a ton of extra time while getting my oil changed in my car to search the web. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004VS0VRY/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i01?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Loved this dress. Because of the textile, you can definitely tell its used but I doubt anyone else would. The regular length was perfect for me to wear flats which was a nice bonus. The top of the dress is double layered so I went braless and I felt super comfortable all night. The only downside is that the romper-ish bottom is kind of a pain to snap back together after going to the bathroom, but its still a great idea. Runs a little tiny bit large - I'm usually a 2 or 4 and the 2 fit but the 4 was a little too loose.

My husband chose this dress for me and i'm really surprised how much i loved being in it. Gorgeous color, flowed beautifully in the breeze and comfortable. It has an easiness to it that didn't feel too formal but formal enough for an outdoor wedding. I felt great and got lots of compliments. PS. There's snaps under the shorts that allows for easy bathroom breaks. :)

This dress is really cool with the body suit and the gold threading but it looked a little bit "worn". The threads had some pulls and the dress was too short for me at 5'4". I decided not to wear the dress.

This dress is beautiful in person! The flowing fabric and metallic threads woven throughout make it so much better than the picture shows. I received many compliments throughout the night. The only downside was, due to wear, there were quite a few loose metallic threads sticking out here and there and the bodysuit would not stay snapped which made for some interesting moments on the dance floor. Overall a great dress!

I rented this dress and another for a wedding. I actually ended up going with the other dress instead. This dress was gorgeous! However, the wedding was in the middle of summer in Dallas and the other dress seemed more fitting for the wedding. I will definitely try to rent this dress again to wear to another wedding if I have a chance.

I loved loved loved the fabric and the flow of this dress. It was so perfect. I'm pretty short and the dress just looked terrible on my proportions. The ribbon was also hard to zip up, on both the 2 and 0. i'm not much help but if you have big boobs and a small torso, I'd look at a different gown - everyone else! Rent away :)

I loved the dress!!! I got so many compliments on it all night. It was perfect for the occasion. The only negative thing I have to say is that the band around the waist has no stretch and it was a little tight. That was a small thing though compared to how much the dress rocked!

Pros-Beautiful color, flows very well when worn with heels. The turquoise necklace make the dress! Cons-The black belt has no give at all, so be sure to choose your size carefully.

Nice dress, just too long for a short gal like me. I didn't end up wearing it.

RTR send this as my replacement dress but I didn't wear it. It was a little frayed but nothing major and really gorgeous in person! I just liked my other one better :)

fit very true to size perfect length for 5'8"

This dress was nice on the hanger but wasn't flattering at all on. I didn't wear it but rtr replaced it w another dress quickly

Everything about this dress was perfect The bottom looks more sheer than it really is at an evening affair.

I rented this dress in hopes of wearing it to a destination wedding in carmel, CA. Unfortunately, the "shorts" underneath proved to be pretty unflattering on me. I also think that the coloring of the dress wasn't too flattering on my ultra pale skin…perhaps if you have a darker skin tone or a great spray tan then this might be nice for a warm weather event.

The only issue with this dress is the silk underlay that has 3 buttons right in the private area. Every time i sat down the buttons popped open! It also takes forever trying to button them on your own in the ladies room. Thank God I had friends there to help me out. Other than that the dress is beautiful! Received lots of compliments!

I read some previous reviews on this dress that pointed out how worn the gold fabric was and that was pretty spot on. Also, the dress does have a romper lining, but it has plastic snaps that are impossible to keep buttoned. Luckily the dress wasn't sheer enough where anyone noticed. Overall, I received many compliments on my dress and felt gorgeous in it.

I was a little disappointed when I first received the dress but I'm glad I stuck with it. I'm not sure why no one has mentioned the itchy fabric... be warned! I have sensitive skin and halter tie was sooo irritating at first that I called RTR about possibly exchanging the dress. On the day of the event it wasn't so bad because I found a more comfortable way to tie it. Fit is weird. There was a lot of extra fabric in the bust (and I'm a 30 DD) but the black band is VERY tight and has no give. Luckily my dress was a little tattered and most of the stitches holding the band to the dress were ripped so that helped a bit. The slip underneath was too long on me and wouldn't stay snapped shut. It was just almost peaking out through the slits on the side. Overall... Very easy to wear and gorgeous but slightly frustrating because of the itchy material and tight black band.

I wore this dress for my brother's daytime graduation party. Since it was a pool party, I dressed it down with flip flops and casual jewelry, but this is a very versatile dress that can be worn in a variety of occasions. The panels are sheer from the waist down (peach colored slip underneath to the mid-thigh), which is very unique and fun. My only gripe is that I ordered my main size as an 8R and would have preferred to wear that size, however, the sash on top was not threaded through the neckline and I didn't have the time to worry about installing it, so I just wore the larger size for ease of wear.

I had eyed this dress for awhile but actually opted to rent a different dress for the wedding I was attending. Unfortunately two days before the wedding RTR called me and said the dress was not available!! I was a little stressed but RTR was so helpful and let me pick any dress they had as a replacement. I went with this gorgeous dress and I could not have been happier!!! They only had a 2R and had none of my back up sizes - the 2R fit but as I'm 5'7" I could only wear flats with it because the dress does run on the shorter size. I will never know but I would say a 4L might have been the ideal size for me. I paired it with a turquoise necklace from RTR that looked amazing! LOVE LOVE this dress!

I wore this dress to a corporate holiday party and the theme was 1970's. The dress worked great with my Farrah Fawcett hair. I had originally ordered a sequined dress, but my size was no longer available so I ended up going with this dress. I wasn't sure if it was going to work, but I ended up loving it and got so many compliments. I read the reviews prior to ordering it and the slit does go up pretty high, but I wore panty hose since it was December. The little snap in shorts were very helpful too so I didn't have to worry about the dress blowing up. Very fun, feminine dress and RTR was very helpful when my first choice wasn't available.
