Cute for a petite girl
This was my backup dress, and my daughter ended up wearing it. For me, at 5'7, 140ish, 36C, it smooshed me boobs and did not look very good. My daughter is 5'1, 34B, and it was gorgeous on her. She doesn't always like her hips, and this style was incredibly flattering on her with the dark color on the sides. The back is very nice. A beautiful dress for a petite girl!

A different dress when you try it on!
I was skeptical when I pulled this dress out. Looked blah and short. But...! The material is thick and gorgeous and 100% flatters and hugs the figure while hiding a little extra tummy. The color is super pretty. I thought it was going to be too short, and it is short, but it does not ride up even a little. Almost like it's taped in place, so I went for it! Everyone was telling me how gorgeous it was, and people who knew it was a rental told me I should buy it. But sadly, it's probably super expensive because what a well-made dress! RTR does it again :)

Solid!
I am usually a medium, (size 6), so I got a medium with a backup small after reading the reviews. The small fit. I never got to try the medium because it was unavailable for shipping. They sent another black romper I loved better, so I never got to wear this. But it is very nice, and a different style than you'll see on other people.

This is amazing!
So simple and flattering! If you have a tummy you want to hide, this is it while still giving you shape. So classy! Only downfall is you have to unbutton the whole thing to pee.

Very pretty color. Very comfortable and flattering.
I usually wear a size 6, but this ran pretty tight through the back so I went with the 8. I'm only a C but it flattened my chest with a tight fit, so I wore a bra with some slight padding underneath. I thought the bra was tucked low enough, but it became visible a couple of times, so next time I would pin it. It wasn't a dress that it broke my heart to return like I've had in the past, but I was overall very satisfied. RTR was once again flawless with getting it to me perfectly on time and with ease!

A lovely dress, nice quality of lace
This was very nice for New Year's Eve out with friends. I knew it was short from the reviews, so this was a perfectly fine occasion for a mini. My only caution would be to be careful of the waist band of any nylons you plan to wear. I liked the dress at home, but when I tried it on at the hotel with nylons, the line that crossed my stomach was pretty noticeable through the fabric that doesn't hide much. I didn't love it because I had a couple of extra holiday pounds! That would make me give it 4 stars instead of 5, but it's not really that fault of the dress. (It was the fault of the Christmas cookies!) Good experience!

For me, this dress was forgettable.
The color is very pretty. They material definitely hugs your curves in the skirt in a very flattering way. The shoulder just felt like too much thick material that came up too high. I just didn't feel like it did much for me compared to other RTR dresses I've rented., but it was a well-made dress.

This is a super sexy outfit!
This is a very comfortable romper, but very sexy and head-turning. I'm usually a medium, but small fit nicely. I wore a thick black belt with it and big dangly silver and black earrings. Not an outfit to wear around grandma, but stunning! Super low cut.

Back in Action Romper

Overall, a pretty dress with gorgeous lace.
I had rented Nicole Miller's "Such a Duchess" dress recently and had never loved a dress more. This one's quality was just as beautiful, but it is definitely shorter and lower! I did have to pull it down quite often. Since the 6 fit me so well in the previous dress, I did not order a backup 8. Perhaps that would have been a little bit longer, who knows? I still liked wearing this, but "Such a Duchess' is the way to go if you are looking for sophisticated with a hint of sexy whereas this one has much more than a hint! This was a very pretty color for a summer wedding.

Not the dress for me
This is a beautiful dress but not for me. I am only 36C but I was spilling out of it although the rest of the dress fit. The waist was not flattering since I am a bit straight...maybe would be better on hourglass. I didn't like the twisted straps or the fact that the ribbon at the waist did not lie flat. It looks beautiful on others, but perhaps not for my body type.

Nice dress, pretty color
Very pretty, comfortable dress worn for a graduation dinner. I am usually a 6, but I decided to wear the 4 since it was snug but not too tight. The color is vibrant, and turquoise jewelry goes nicely with it. I felt comfortable at a school function wearing this, but not overly conservative! UPS delivered the dresses to the wrong house, but I eventually got them. RTR was very helpful in this regard, checking if it arrived on time for me to get to wear it.

This dress was stunning! I tried my usual size 6 on, and I was done thinking about it! No tape, etc.
So comfortable, and no fuss! I could sit, socialize, and dance without ever adjusting it! I was chaperoning a school prom, and I felt appropriate . Loads of compliments! Kids were sweet, saying I was the most beautiful one there. Not my goal, but I was happy to have on a dress I loved! The price was unbeatable. First RTR experience, and I have more booked already!
