I rented this for a destination wedding in D.C. I wanted something that would be comfortable but travel well in a carry on. Since my boyfriend was in the wedding it needed to look good with a tux as well! I was hesitant at first because this isn't a style I usually wear. It turned out to be a dream! You can wear a regular bra with it which is a huge plus. I was able to roll it and pack it in my carry on and it didn't wrinkle, another plus. My favorite part though? The pockets! I loved them and they came in handy to keep my camera available during the ceremony. The fabric on this dress is gorgeous, its more of a blue-green in person, but it looks very expensive and has a heavier feel to it. Despite the good quality and weight of the fabric it was not a "hot" dress. I wore it on a 90 degree day and it was fine. In terms of fit this dress did run a bit tight in the rib cage area. I ended up going with my back up size, which fit perfectly. I definitely recommend sizing up for this dress! I'm fairly tall and I was concerned about the length because its always hard to tell from photographs, but the length ended up being great as well. It was long enough to be appropriate for a wedding but short enough to still be fun (and cool in the humidity). Overall I would definitely recommend this dress it was comfortable and still very chic. I danced all night and was sad to send it back the next day. Even the bride complimented my dress- that's when you know its a good one! The only reason I didn't give it five stars was that I felt it ran small, but sizing up solved that problem. I would also recommend some fashion tape as the V-neck while not being inappropriate is a little deep, so you may want to tape your bra in place. I will definitely be renting this dress again!

A little on the heavy side but otherwise comfortable. They caught the light perfectly and I received many compliments!

This was my first RTR experience and it was great. The dress arrive on time and was already pressed and ready to wear. I was attending a good friends "vintage glam" wedding and wanted something that would stand out but be fun and functional as well. I wanted something sparkly but age appropriate- this dress fit the bill. It is more of a rose gold in person and the sparkles were amazing. The dress itself is well constructed and very comfortable, it is very flattering and forgiving around the stomach (who doesn't love that)!? I ordered the 4 with a 2 as a back up and ended up wearing the 2. I think 4 would have been a better fit around the ribs (the 2 was fine but had no room to spare) but the top was too big on the 4. A simple safety pin would have solved the issue. This dress definitely functions better for girls with larger chests (which I don't have) which was the only thing that kept me from giving 5 stars, but it was honestly a small inconvenience in an otherwise perfect dress. I am on the taller side and this was a great length, I can't tell you how many people complimented me and asked where I got the dress. I rented the recommended earrings as well, it was the total package. It photographed amazingly and overall I felt like a million bucks! This is really a showstopper! I would definitely order it again!
