Thin thin thin thin thin terrible material
There are not enough sexy dresses for maternity--this however is not it. Pregnancy nipples are a real thing and this dress does not allow for any coverage the material is way too thin. Even nipple coverage attempt showed through this dress. Not sure why it had to be completely unlined

Amazing floral pattern and great fit!
This dress managed to feel loose, flowy, and comfortable but fit and look sexy. It was perfect for dancing. Received many compliments. It would work well for cocktail attire through formal attire, spring to fall. Super versatile and well made dress! Loved it!!!

The material is awesome and quality, just the right kind of thick/tight!
Really shows off your shape. And the off the shoulder is fun! Usually wear a 6 and the medium fit great.

Showed up to SF RTR Store with nothing to wear for a formal wedding...found this gem!
Loved this dress! Beautiful quality and colors. Photographs really well! I sized down and wore it off the shoulder and really liked the way that looked. If you have a smaller upper body (even with a big booty) you can size down, I wore a much smaller size than I would recommend and it turned out fine but that was more because what was available that day not best fit.

Beautiful and amazing feel to the material
Fit true to size. I received a lot of compliments from random people on the street. I loved the feel of the fabric! It didn't cling and it looked beautiful. Highly recommend!!!

AMAZING!!!
Great for pear shaped girls. If you're small up top size down. Material is a very rich/heavy weight to it but worked well for a nice day outside not too hot.

Perfect dress for a summer wedding!
Absolutely gorgeous! Dress said it was a medium-long so was worried but turned out it was perfect with wedges even though I'm short. The details of the back made the happiest. The color/pattern and the fit were on point too :)

Killer dresss
Medium fit PERFECT normally a size six. If you have event and want to look amazing beyond belief GET THIS DRESS especially if you have a smaller waist or some curves. I was SO lazy about finding the proper bra and just wore a regular bra which was an issue but it didn't matter bc the dress was that hot.

This outfit was everything!!
Usually wear a size 6 dress, debated between the 6 and 8 skirts and ultimately went with the 8 for comfort and a little more wiggle room. Paired w a small top. If you're a pear shaped lady consider sizing up the bottom. Loved this outfit so much!!!!

Did not wear due to awkward fit
Had always read reviews of people choosing not to wear dresses and was so confused! This dress came it wasn't worth it. Sent it back. Very heavy material and not shapely enough. Embroidery work was beautiful though.

Engagement Photo near perfection
I like the pattern, style, weight and feel of the dress. However, as a pear shaped girl, I wasn't totally in love with the fit. In most areas the dress fit well, but if you have bigger hips or a butt beware. Even if you're stomach is flat, the cut of the fabric causes it to bunch in your middle. I felt like it gave me a "pooch" in profile even though I don't have one. I also couldn't lift my arms up which made it a little awkward to reach up to my fiancé in the photos. Other than that cute, stylish, well made and good for a lot of different occasions.

Bigger than I thought but turned out to be really chic
It took up half my arm! Was expecting it to be over sized but not this big. Either way it fit the style I was going for perfectly. Chic. The whole outfit very NYC. Loved it!

Short and curvy girls can rock a catsuit too!
Pros: super sexy, interesting and fun design. Shows off arms/shoulders, curves anything you throw at it and hides a lot at the same time too. This catsuit is on the tighter form fitting side, if you're shorter or have curves it will probably work better for you than getting lost in the fabric or those loosey pajama jumpsuits. So if you've been afraid to try them out for those reasons... Try this one! Cons: none. Felt sexy and special on my bday. The photo is from when I tried it in bc it displays the fit better than the ones I took while I was out. Really really enjoyed this outfit! Best one yet!

Dark Side View Jumpsuit
Hunter Bell

Usual Size: 6

Sexy and Fresh
I tried both the small and medium. The small fit and zipped but was a little too tight on the butt through the thigh. The medium fit well. It has the Herve Leger "scuba" tightness to it. It has a thickness (and weight, the box was heavy!!!) that is a mark of the high quality of the dress. Overall, tons of compliments, felt and looked great, could eat my dinner and not feel like the dress wouldn't look good anymore, could dance, looked sexy without being too showy, etc very very pleased with this rental! Flawless night!

Hervé Léger

Fits a little awkward up top, but moves in beautiful flowy way
The fit on the upper was pretty small. I'm a bcup and had difficulty with the zipper. I rented a regular length and am pretty short (5'4). I'm used to long gowns flowing to the floor. On this dress you can definitely see your feet/heels completely so that was a little odd. I thought the dress looked OK and even considered not wearing it, so was shocked how many compliments I received...has a nice feel to it and flows so it looks cool while you're dancing. So overall, when it came I didn't think I would like it but I did! Have to have faith in the RTR! :)

Sexy without being revealing
Fits very well for all my pear shaped friends! Didn't like the look of it as much out of the box, but it looks great on and it photographs really well too. Has the perfect amount of shimmer and sparkle! Wore it to a small graduation dinner and party and it flowed well into the evening when we went out for drinks and dancing after. Got compliments all night long.

Perfectly Paired for our Engagement Party!
Chose this dress to wear to our party announcing our engagement! The sapphire in my ring is yellow and the dress and ring paired quite perfectly! Got a lot of compliments!! :) Fit: I have a pear shaped body and bigger butt/thighs, the fit was tight on my butt (to be expected). The 4 zipped but did not look attractive and made it tough to sit down. I wore the 6 which was still tight on the butt but looked nicer. Pros: beautiful color, nice detailing, comfortable Cons: Had to pull the dress down a little to get it to sit properly on my butt (if you have a straight body type won't be a problem). I gave it a 4 because it ended up not looking as flattering on my stomach/waist as it was loose there Differences: I think the image on RTR "lightens" the embroidered details on the front. They are a much deeper color than they appear on the model. The design is very apparent. Doesn't lend itself to as many necklaces as i thought (because the dress is already a little busy) unless you are using it for more of a night time event (like the way its styled with the model was overwhelming on my short figure). Overall a very beautiful dress!

I didn't end up wearing the item unfortunately!
The necklace is larger and flashier than I had originally thought. It didn't pair well with my dress (a yellow Sachin + Babi dress I rented here). I ended up not wearing it which was a little sad. I think it's better for going out out (ie clubbing) and not the dinner party I attended.

Fantastic daytime brunch/party dress!
The dress is great for all pear shaped ladies. I can't imagine it working out too well with someone with a larger bust. I was afraid it was going to be too short, but it definitely wasn't a problem. Something I did notice as a problem was how the cut lays at your shoulders. I just felt like it made my arms look more masculine.

Dress looked great! Got a lot of compliments for my birthday :)
Pros: sexy, fun, great color. Cons: you can't lift your arms up! Learned this from other reviews but it was pretty bad. Saw most people style it for day time on RTR, but I thought the thickness of the material made it pretty awesome for a night out. Paired it with the AV Max necklace which added an extra edge.
