Loved it!
I am usually a size 2, and I could have gotten away with the 2, but the 4 was more comfortable for dancing, and moving around, and didn't ride up as much when I sat down. The color was perfect for a September wedding in NJ and I received so many compliments on the dress. I wore it to a family wedding at a yacht club, which was perfect for the attire there. I paired it with open-toed black heels and a black bag with pearls. However, the dress is so versatile that silver or gold accessories would have also worked out. The only issue with the dress was that the back zipper kept coming undone. I needed to rezip the dress throughout the night frequently, or I had people noticing it and doing it for me.

Perfect for a chilly spring lunch party in New Jersey!
I rented both the small and medium and wore the small. The dress was perfect for a chillier spring day and I wore it to an anniversary lunch for my in-laws. The fabric was nice and the sleeves were extra cute with their bagginess. The dress length was appropriate (I tend to be more conservative). I paired it with pearls for a fancier look and black tights with black flats. Also, tried on nude tights and black heels, which also looked appropriate. I received many compliments on the dress and was absolutely rent it again and recommend it.

Pockets and so many compliments!
I wore this for a baby shower and loved it. It's so versatile... flats or heels, open or closed toe, brown or black, silver gold or white. It was a fun and cute little outfits for my friend's shower and has pockets!

Amazing- I did not want to send it back.
This dress was/is amazing! I did not want to send it back. The color is great for a fall/winter event, and it is so different and dainty. I received SO MANY compliments. I ordered a 2 with a back up 4 (I usually wear a 2). The 2 fit perfect. Word of advice... the details say wear a strapless bra, but some people said a normal bra was fine. YES AND NO... a normal bra is fine... however, I needed to make sure it was a nude colored bra, AND depending on the cut of the bra, the top side of the bra where the straps are, showed. Good thing I have long hair. Showed enough were I was contemplating wearing a strapless, but then at the last minute didn't as I could not find my strapless bra! I wore this dress for my bridal shower and it looked great in photos!! It was rather chilly in NJ for October, so I wore black tights and heels :) I am also very picky on lengths of dresses, and I felt totally comfortable in this. I will try to keep posted photos... RTR keeps telling me it's too big even though it is under 2MG

I loved this dress!!
I loved this dress. I ordered it for my mother's surprise 65th birthday party that was at a restaurant in August in NJ. It was very comfortable and breathable. Also, IT HAS POCKETS!!! I tried it on with several different shoes and it looked great with all of them... brown, nude, white, silver, flats, heels, open and closed toe. I decided to go with brown heels with open toes. I also paired it with a brown belt I had to make the waist a little more snug. I ordered a 2 and 4, I am usually a 2. The 2 was comfy, but I could have even gone with the 0 I think. I am 5'5" and it came to just above my knee- it was a great length as I tend to be very conservative with the length of things. I did not feel like I needed to wear shorts and anything underneath for fear of a peak! I did not need to wear a jacket, but it also looked cute with a white, brown sweater and a jean jacket! I received so many compliments on it, I was able to decorate for the party, and drive a long distance in it. I could also wear a normal bra with it, which was also a plus. I hated having to return this and would rent it again and recommend.

LOVEEE!!
I loved this dress and did not want to return it. I ordered the 2, with a back up 4. I typically wear a 2, and that is the one I wore for this event. It is true to size and I did not even take the 4 out of the bag. The dress is a little short when you sit down, but I always wear spanx under for when I am dancing, so it did not bother me that much. The color was great- I wore this to a fancy sweet 16 for my niece. Had a lot of compliments on it. Loved that you could wear a normal bra with it. Would totally get it again.

LOVE IT!!- runs small
I rented this dress for a Marine Ball. My significant other's grandfather is a veteran and invites us every year. It was actually a last minute change due to the temperature dropping so suddenly, but I LOVED the dress and am so happy I rented it. It is a deep purple color, that looked great with the fall colors- I wore black shoes with it. I am typically a size 2, and ordered the 4 for a back up size. I went with the 4. I could have gone with the 2, but the 4 was more comfortable and I could move around more. I also liked that I could wear a standard bra with it. I would highly recommend this dress, just order up!

LOVED this dress.
I loved this dress and did not want to return it. I rented it for my friend's bridal shower that was a "tea party" theme. I usually wear a 2 or 4, more so a 2. It was true to size- the 2 fit so great that I did not even open the back up 4. It was a little chilly so I paired it with black tights and a black sweater, with black mary jane shoes. I received so many compliments. This dress was so cute and fun. I am also usually really conscious about the lengths of dresses- I have long legs so even longer-ish dresses look short on me. This was the perfect length. You are able to wear a standard bra with it, although my straps showed, so I pulled them back with some rescue/double sided tape. You couldn't see if with my sweater I would rent it again and highly recommend it! Thanks RTR.

love it!
I rented this dress for a May wedding. I ordered the 2 and 4, as I usually wear a 2, but very rarely wear a 4. I wore the 4! (I am 5'5", 113 pounds, and 35C). I was so surprised. I received so many compliments on the dress and did not want to return it! It was a little short for my liking, but I am very conservative with my dress lengths as my legs are long and it usually makes the dress look shorter. I did notice that no matter what underwear I wore you could see the lines- so you might want to invest in a slip or wear tights under it. It looked cute with a bunch of different shoe styles colors (silver, black, and brown/nude)- I eventually settled for black. I also think the pictures makes it look more orange that it is... it is more peach. Would highly recommend!!

ehhhh
After the dress I wanted was not available last minute, RTR sent this to me. I like the color- it was a similar color to the dress I ordered. When I tried it on, the fabric appeared heavy and itchy to me. Not appropriate for a wedding during the warmer months. I also felt... pregnant in the dress. Not that there is anything wrong with that! I am just... not pregnant. It might be a great dress to hide some curves or a pregnancy though. I am 5'5", 113 pounds, and 36C. The size 2 appeared large on me. My usual size is a 2 and I ordered the 4 as a back up.

too small
I usually wear a size 2, and my back up is 4. I NEVER wear the 4. I ordered my usual 2 and 4 for this dress and I could barely get into the 4. I actually stopped trying for fear of ripping the dress. I am 5'5", 113 pounds, and a 36C. I would order TWO sizes up at minimum. The dress' fabric was nice and appeared breathable. I also did not like the weird fabric in the front for the design. I ultimately could not wear the dress... best of luck!

So cute and fun!
I absolutely loved this dress. I ordered my normal size 2 with the 4 as a back up. The 2 fit perfectly. I typically am picky about the lengths of my dresses (thank you Catholic school), but felt comfortable in this. I wore it to a summer wedding in NJ in August and it was great. I paired it with black heels, but it was a difficult pick against nude, brown, and silver. Greta dress to dance in although I wish I wore shorts under it because I was constantly holding the dress down. Some people commented about the seam and said it reminded them of a leotard or figure skater. I honestly would not have noticed if I wasn't looking for it. I also liked that I could wear s normal bra with it. I would highly recommend this dress!

Fun dress, absolutely loved it!
I LOVED this dress. I did not want to return it. I typically wear a size 2, and it fit great. The length was great as well, as I have a tendency to be picky about the lengths of my dresses. It was such a fun dress. I graduated with my doctorate and had a party as a wedding/banquet hall. This dress was perfect. I couldn't decide what shoes to wear because it looked cute with everything! It was also a very hot and humid day, but this dress was amazingggg. I received so many compliments. I highly recommend renting it!!

Highly recommend. LOVE IT!!!
I wore this dress to my doctorate graduation. I absolutely LOVED it. I normally wear a size 2, and this dress was true to size. It was warm, and was pouring rain the day of my graduation, and this dress was comfortable under the heavy gown, but perfect for the gross weather as well. I did not want to return it. The lace on it was lovely and I received so many compliments. I also prefer dresses on the longer-isa side, and this was perfect. Looked cute with flats and heels... and my black rain boots! lol. I wore a small black sweater over it when it was cooler out after the ceremony, and it was a perfect fit!

I LOVE this dress. I actually ordered it again for another event.
I ordered both the 2 and 4 in this dress. My normal dress size is a 2- I am 5' 5", 113 pounds, and a 36C. I wore the 2 and it fit amazing. I loved how I didn't need to have a special bra or anything either. I was between black pumps and black flats, I went with both- I changed into the flats during the reception. I received so many compliments on the dress and I really did love it. You could really wear it with so many shoes- black, nude, navy, silver... very versatile.

This dress was AMAZING! I did not want to return it.
Loved that I could wear a normal bra with it, and it was perfect for a summer wedding. It was one of the hottest days we had in New Jersey this summer, and it was open and breathable. I received so many compliments on the dress. I decided to wear black heels, but was also thinking of nude. I range in size from 0-4, and I wore the 2. It was perfect! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
