No give in the fabric
Rented for a party but didn't wear. Several reviews mentioned that people sized down, so when my next size down popped up as available, I gave it a shot, but could only do it up 3/4 the way. I'm certain the next size up would have been fine... The pattern was great (my husband commented as soon as I pulled it out of the bag). The reason why I'm not giving it a stellar rating is that as a lot of people mention, the top is large, and I wish the fabric had any give, as I felt like the size down would have been better a better fit proportionally. The other thing is that the fabric wrinkles very easily. It needed to be pressed before I could have worn it, and it's the type of fabric that would have likely been back to super wrinkly after the cab ride to the party.

Very Flattering
Great dress. Perfect length and very flattering. The neckline was a little high for my taste, but it was a great dress.

Even cuter in-person
This dress was even cuter in person than in the picture. The large worked, but I would have preferred a medium.

Shows every bump/wrinkle
Didn't wear. I really really wanted to like this dress. The fabric was so unforgiving that any wrinkle or fold in the liner below was completely visible, in addition to any part of your body that is not 1000% smooth. I was wearing shapewear and you can clearly see an outline of my belly button. Would not have been comfortable leaving my house in this.

Size down.
My frst RTR order and apparently over-estimated my dress size. The material was very stretchy and based on how big it was, I would have gone down two sizes. The one thing I was worried about, which is why I didn't rent again, is that the cuffs on the sleeves were tight. I was swimming in the rest of the dress, except that one spot.

Nice overall, but too long
This was my first RTR order, so was trying to figure out sizes and this was the only one that actually fit. It fit well and I really like that the sparkle wasn't "in your face". The fabric was a good weight, so the skirt flowed well, it was just way too long for me. I am a walker with big calves, so I need a dress to fall at the knee or just above to be the most flattering. I was surprised at how long it was since I'm not particularly short. I didn't end up wearing it.
