I loved this dress. I'm not sure if the sizing is slightly off or not. I'm anywhere from an 8-12 depending on the style and brand, so I average it out to a 10. I rented both the 8 and 10. The majority of the reviews seem to think that this dress runs small. I disagree. Maybe in the larger sizes of 8+ vs. the 4 or 6- sizes it runs differently? The 10 looked frumpy and the 8 fit perfectly hugging my midsection and hips nicely thinning me out without being tight. The upper body and hip fabric have absolutely no stretch so if you run at all thicker through the middle or back this could cause discomfort and give a reason to size up. However, even though my chest is larger, it was not too tight. The hemline is a nice detail that modernizes the dress and gives it subtle pizzazz. Loved, loved, loved it. Would definitely rent again!

This dress runs small and is a bodycon fit. Did the dress fit me? Yes, because it WILL stretch to fit. Did I want to wear it with the way it fit? No! On the model, the dress looks classy with slight sexy body hugging. This could be because she is not that curvy to begin with and creates curves? On me...not the same. I would probably have had to go up 2 sizes for it to look more body skimming as on the model. However a wrong fit for my body type should not detract from the rating since the quality is there and the overall style is nice. The scuba material is comfortable and feels substantial. This dress will hug and accentuate your curves. So if you want a bodycon style then maybe it does run true to size in your book, but I'd still recommend going up a size for the backup... Just. In. Case.

This dress runs pretty small. I had rented both the 10 and 12 since I'm in-between sizes right now and the general consensus from other reviews was that it ran small. I never go to try on the 12 since it did not come back from the previous renter on time. RTR of course made up for this as usual with their great customer service and multiple substitutions. The 10 was tight. The 12 may have worked but might have been more body-conscious for a larger chest than wanted for the conservative event that I was going to?....a shame I wasn't able to find out because the color and material are pretty. If the dress is worn too tight I think that some of the pattern's character is lost and does not come off as nicely. If you want it to look like the model you'd probably want to size up. I wore one of the substitutions that RTR had helped to pick out instead. hank you RTR!

I'm in-between sizes right now trying to lose the last of some "baby weight". I really liked this dress but being in-between sizes is my curse right now. I started with trying on the 12 and was at first unimpressed with it's matronly look and fit on me. I then tried the 10 on and going down that one size made a world of difference. I ended up not wearing the dress since it was slightly tighter in the chest than I would have liked and made me feel a little too self-conscious for the church service and event I was going to. I wore another dress from RTR instead. The 10 could have been worn, but the 12 felt more appropriate for church. If I had been wearing it anywhere else I would have probably gone slightly more fitted with the 10. Even though the 12 was a little looser it did not look matronly as some of the other dresses tend to if going up in size. Overall a winner and I will be looking for

This dress looks so much nicer in person than in the picture. It fits pretty true to size. I'm in-between sizes right now trying to lose the last of some "baby weight". The 10 could have been worn, but the 12 felt more appropriate for church. If I had been wearing it anywhere else, I would have gone with the slightly more fitted 10 that showed my figure. Even though the 12 was a little looser it skimmed my curves instead of hugged them and did not look matronly as some of the other dresses tend to if going up in size. Overall a winner and I will be looking for other Rachel Roy dresses due to great fit and overall top quality and feel of the dresses.

This dress ran mostly true to size. For this review on size please note that at the time of the rental, my overall size was bigger than it shows in my profile now. I was probably more around 170-175lbs, 34DD, a size 12 and slightly thicker in the mid-section from a pregnancy earlier in the year. The dress is a beautiful rich jewel toned blue and the neckline is very flattering. The style helped hide my untoned areas and gave me more of a waist. I'd still suggest wearing undergarments though if you have problem areas since the fabric has a sheen and could draw attention. A "two thumbs up to RTR" side note: RTR's customer service is absolutely amazing. This dress was sent to me as one of several replacements when my original order was not going to get to me in time (weather and shipments) for an out of town wedding. When I realized this, I promptly called RTR's customer service and got Claire. Claire is an angel. My first panic-stricken thoughts were, "How was I going to find a replacement in one conversation with somebody who didn't know me or my body? It had taken me, in a longer than planned state of recovery post pregnancy body, several weeks of indecisiveness to make the initial rental!!!" Claire spent lots of time and patience with me pouring over available dresses giving her suggestions and receiving my numerous vetos. I ended up with multiple replacements that were sent overnight to my hotel to ensure I'd have a dress to wear.

This dress was received new with tags! This dress ran large. For this review on size please note that at the time of the rental, my overall size was bigger than it shows in my profile now. I was probably more around 170-175lbs, 34DD, a size 12 and slightly thicker in the mid-section from a pregnancy earlier in the year. The dress is a nice dark navy blue and the quality of the dress is nice. It was a very pretty dress, but with the style and fit too big, it felt matronly looking. If it had fit better, I don't think this would have been my first impression. A "two thumbs up to RTR" side note: RTR's customer service is absolutely amazing.
