Awesome dress,
It was tight and short which was great but the lining felt a little off, like it didnt match up with the outerlayer of the dress

I got a lot of compliments on this dress.
This is a great dress for when you don't want something super tight but something that is still flattering. It runs a bit large since it's a little baggier of a fit, so I would size down.

Wore this for a fraternity formal
Very lightweight fabric with billowy sleeves, the dress is pretty much all sequins so be careful! It's a very short dress and I'm short to begin with, but overall the fit was great, I loved this dress!

It was perfect!
The dress is short, but not too short where I was worrying i would flash people all night. I wore this when I was about 8 weeks pregnant and it was very comfortable. I received compliments all night long!

Cute/fun dress, though short!
Wore this for a friend's 30th bday in New Orleans. Was very sparkly, comfortable and size was right. However, it ran very short! I wore opaque black tights. I was going to have the size 10 as my backup but it wasn't available. I wonder if it had been longer, but I think the top would've been too big - and I would've worn the 8 anyways.

Adorable, eye-catching dress.
This dress was super comfortable and cute. I wore it to a holiday party for work and it was perfect. It is quite short, but I wore it with opaque black tights and black wedges so I wasn't concerned about showing too much.

1st time with RTR. I had anxiety about the shipping, but it was shipped as promised and beautiful!
I chose to wear the size 2 because it does fit like a big t-shirt which made it short, but I was very comfortable. Sequins do fall off and get snagged to things. Overall, I was satisfied.

Makes a statement! All eyes will be on you in this super-sparkly stunner.
I wore this to our office holiday party last year and — as you can see — I matched the backdrop in the photo booth exactly! LOL. So pretty and festive. Even in a sea of cute sequined dresses, this one stood out. As far as the fit, it's flowy and not super tailored (which is what exactly what I was looking for at the time since I'd had a few too many Christmas cookies that week).

Received many compliments
I ordered the dress in a 6 based on other reviews, but wound up wearing the 8 I ordered as the backup. It was very short (which I don't usually go for, so my husband was pleasantly surprised), and left a trail of sequins all over my house like other reviewers said, but was not noticeable on the dress if any were missing. The best thing about the dress was it was surprisingly comfortable, and I got a lot of compliments on it. It photographs very well too, although in hindsight the larger sized it looks a little big in my pictures and I could have gotten away with wearing the 6. Would definitely recommend it!

Great dress! so much fun to wear!
the lining is longer on the bottom and the sequins stick together, but overall great. The dress also seemed to have been worn a lot so a replacement might be needed! Overall was wonderful!

Comfortable and easy to wear. It was shorter than I expected
Loved the dress and I got tons of compliments, but I am 5'8" and pretty leggy. It was very short. I could have worn the 8, the 10 was a little large but the 8 was at least an inch short than the 10 and that made it a shirt on me.

Super Sparkle!
I rented the size down on this dress as my back up for my engagement party, as suggested by other reviewers. Even being 5 foot, this dress was short! As in, bend over and you might regret the picture outcome, short, even on me. I did however end up wearing this dress with tights as the original dress did not fit. The fit is far from snug, and I probably could have gotten away with a 2. I was comfortable in it all night, but do wish it was a little more flattering. This dress would probably look better on someone taller, however the skirt vs. torso of the dress looks much different in person than in the picture. Still a winner however, as I enjoyed wearing it for the party and got many compliments.

Perfect Vegas Party Dress
I rented this for a weekend in Vegas with my girlfriends. It was super cute and really easy to wear-- no additional accessories necessary. It was a little short on me, but perfect for Vegas nightclubs. The 6 was true to size.

Sparkly and comfy - two of my favorite things!
This dress was awesome! I got so many compliments on it, from both guys and girls. It fit like a t-shirt, both in comfort and length. Tall girls be warned - it is short. I'm 5'2" and it wasn't scandalous or anything, but if I had been any taller, I might not have been comfortable wearing it. I normally wear a 2, but RTR contacted me prior to sending it and let me know that their size 2 was damaged and they'd send a couple other dresses in its place. The 0 ended up fitting perfectly, though.

LOVE this dress.
I was a little unsure about this dress when I rented it. I rented it for a girls trip to vegas, but ended up not wearing it. I only didn't wear it because we partied too hard the first night, ended up at a casual, local bar the second night, and had to return it before I could wear it the third night. This dress is so cute and comfy. I know that I would have felt totally comfortable in it, even after drinking and eating ridiculous amounts for 3 days in Vegas. Mine had a bit of wear on the sequins, but I didn't care since I was wearing it in Vegas. The length is great. Not too short, but definitely flirty. As others said, the top does run a little big. Overall, I would definitely rent this one again to actually be able to wear it!

Showstopper!
Photographs incredibly well! Lots of compliments. Super comfortable - the sequins won't scratch your skin at all!! The chest area may be a tad tight, so if you're large busted, it may be worth going up a size.

Super comfortable and looked great in photos!
I rented this for a celestial themed party and it was really perfect and stunning. The only problem was the length. I'm 5'10" and 165 lbs, and I usually wear long dresses. But my husband thought the dress looked great and gave me a giant thumbs up. I was excited, and half an hour into our event, he said that he had changed his mind and it was too short! He was mostly kidding, but the fact of the matter is this: I needed something to cover my lap when I sat down.
Over all: the length was SUPER INSANELY short, but still fun to wear.

Classy and fun!
I wore this to an October wedding. I ordered the 0 and the 2 but went with the size 2. I liked how the 2 was a bit more loose ... It gave it a more classy look. It was very comfortable and fun to wear. I received lots of compliments! Be prepared for when you take this dress out of the box ... Many of the sequins were stuck together. They were easy to get undone though.

Very comfortable while feeling glamourous :)
I loved this dress. I was able to move and not feel self conscious. I knew it would be a little short, but it didn't cause any trouble! I liked how you could go with either silver or gold since it had both colors. It is more sparkly in person, as well. I didn't really see how the retail price was the amount listed, but I sure didn't mind renting it at the price it was! I would definitely rent this dress again.

I rented this dress for my bachelorette party and got tons of compliments.
I love how the dress had a looser fit. My only complaint was that the lining was longer than the actual dress part but I was the only one who could tell. The dress also loses sequins pretty easily, but since I was only wearing it for the night I didn't mind.

Liked it but wore something else.
This dress was loose, flowy, yet flattering. I didn't wear it because it was very, very short and I wanted to wear leggings underneath but didn't have any that would match. Looked cute with nude heels. Would rent again though for another party.

Omg, I'd rent this dress again for 100 parties!! Super sexy but comfy. Short but perfect for a ladies night out, the sequins were so fun! At first I was worried about looking like a disco ball, but everyone was jealous of my dress, the photos were great, and it was perfect for Vegas!!
