Stunning dress. The color really stands out.
No stretch so get your size correct.

Fun, very stretchy, tons of compliments
I wore this to a 1 year olds birthday party. I know that sounds strange but the theme was Safari and we were all asked to wear animal print. The dress really accents your chest (I had to pull it up to be more modest (hello 1 year old b-day party) but can totally show off your assets if you like. The dress has a built in bra and is very comfortable. I have a large rib cage so dress was quite snug (but not uncomfortable) on top but was a little loose on the bottom. I got tons of compliments at the party and in the days after.

Wore to a fundraising event. Got many compliments. Would absolutely rent again.
Dress has a little bit of stretch which makes it comfortable. The bottom of the dress is rather narrow making it difficult to walk but not too much.

So comfortable I never wanted to take it off!
I wore this dress to a themed black tie wedding (old Hollywood glamour). It arrived a couple days early and when I tried it on I was so sad that I couldn't start wearing it early (like to work or the gym) it was so comfortable I could have slept in it. When I finally got the chance to wear it to the wedding, it was amazing. I felt like the most beautiful woman there (except of course for the bride). Guests came up to me constantly to say I was the best dressed person at the wedding. Cannot wait to rent this again!

Not for all body types
Loved the color, loved the fabric and shape but was just not meant for me. My shoulders are broad as are my ribs so the cut outs weren't as flattering as I had hoped. Luckily I had another dress which was fabulous.

Felt Beautiful
Rented this for a friends engagement party. In a sea of blakc dresses the orange really stood out and made and impression. The dress fit realy well. Like in the other reviews I want to stress htat the fabric is not stretchy so make sure you pick the right size. Made your alternative a size up rather than a size down.

MEH
I was blown away by the picture of this dress but when it arrived I was less than enthused. While the color is lovely, the waist sits at an awkward place not giving it any definition. Additionally, that dramatic slit in the middle of the dress will only appear while walking very fast or if you are facing a wind machine, it is not at all structured. In the end, decided not to wear it.

Got so many compliments!
Rented this for a friends prom themed birthday party. When I walked in the door everyone's jaw dropped. I got complimented all night long. I felt very pretty. The dress was really short but very comfortable.

Love it! Rented dress 4 times!
This is my all time favorite dress on RTR. I have now rented it four times (should probably look into buying it. The fabric is nice and heavy with a little bit of stretch. The color is a little darker than it appears in the picture but is still beautiful. Every time I wear it I feel beautiful and sophisticated.

Just OK
I rented this for New Years eve and it was fine but will probably never rent again. The color is a really pretty cream and gold but the fabric is thick, I mean like upholster your couch with it thick, so it wont show off your body at all. If you want something to hide under its a great choice, otherwise don't do it.
