Top was not secure
I wanted to wear this so so bad! It was the perfect dress for the black tie work event I was attending. But I could tell I’d be pulling up the top the whole night. I have a smaller rib cage but still a D cup and I just could not get the dress to stay put.

That back!
The show stopper of this dress was the back. It fit well enough but I would have liked it just a little longer and the slit a little more prominent. The top fit great and the color was perfect for a winter event. Usually I don’t like a high neckline but it was not restrictive or bothersome. I’d recommend renting this dress.

Stunning
Absolutely fantastic dress! While yes, it definitely has the sexy factor it was very elegant. Ultimately I decided it was a bit more formal than I needed but I’d definitely want to wear this at another time. The fit was fantastic and was really comfortable. Next time for sure!

Beautiful fit and color
This was a beautiful dress in person. I really wanted to wear this but I went with another option I’d rented. The blue had a touch of sparkle and the material was very elegant. I was surprised the bust part was a bit smaller than I expected but the entire dress fit great. I’ll definitely revisit renting this, especially for a spring event.

Vibrant color
This was a great rental. The color was beautiful and the chain was more of a black/dark silver. It was actually a bit dirty, so I’d suggest wiping it off before wearing. I was able to cross the chain in the front, which was great. The slit was perfect, didn’t show too much when I was standing but it was pretty high when I sat down. The fabric was great! I wore a M, a small would have fit my waist better but at my height the medium fit well. I’d definitely suggest renting this one!

Super cute dressed up or down!
I wore this for my birthday party with my family and friends. It wasn't so sheer that I worried about it being inappropriate around my kids but it was a bit short. I went with the larger size simply because it gave me a bit more length and at 5'9"

Great dress and perfectly form-fitting.
This brand is always a bit tight but that was the point! Very flattering and beautiful color!

Holy smokes...that slit!
Great dress and a real head turner. I forgot how high the slit was going to be but once I put it on I just committed and it was pretty awesome. I wasn't able to wear a bra as the side cut outs would have showed my strapless one. But the dress was well made and I didn't feel like (my top) was falling out. Just my leg! Ha fun dress to dress up in.

Very cute for a day/night party!
Very cute and easy to wear dress. As the pic shows the top had some stick to it but kept flopping over, which was a tad annoying. But I felt super cute for a day at the track. Perfect little bit of sparkle without being too much for the day time. Overall I'd recommend as a good dress!

Not my favorite fit
In person the dress was cute but it just didn't fit right. The dress was too big in the back and then the slit at the front I just didn't find flattering. The color was pretty and it was comfortable so I'll give it that but I just was not a big fan.

Super cute!
I called this my matinee dress, perfect for an afternoon at the ballet. The color was beautiful in person and the fit was very flattering. I wore the 6 because the 4 was a bit short on me, especially given the occasion. Overall I was very pleased with this rental.

Killer slit!
Great dress! Have to be in the right mind to wear it but for the event I attended it was perfect!! Tried a regular bra but needed a halter back bra. Glad I was at home to make that change. Also ordered a 4 and a 6. Felt it ran big big and could have worn a 2. It was only big in the waist wish gapped a bit. Overall I was really pleased with the dress would totally recommend it!! Xoxo

Very shiny but cute
I loved this dress but I wore it to a holiday party thinking everyone else would be dressed up. Not so much. So that was a little disappointing because this dress really was a sparkler!

Man this was a killer dress!! Fit like a glove but I had to wear the medium since it was so short. It was a fun party dress that knocked it out of the park!

Great for a work event
I wore this for a work cocktail party and really loved it. I wore the medium because it was the only one available so it was a tad big. The cut outs in the front dipped down a bit and showed the top of my bra. But it blended with with the rest of the dress. Overall I found the quality of the dress great and it was extremely comfortable.

Work cocktail party
This was a great style for a late night work cocktail party but the fabric was so cheap I would have thought it came from a discount store. That's not the quality I typically get from RTR. And yes...I was at a wax museum!! Overall it was a cute dress and the fit was nice but I only wore it because I had nothing else. I went with the medium just because of the work aspect and I was worried it would be see through since it was so thin.

Summer business casual
What says business casual in Florida more than a pant suit!?!? It was super cute and worked really well. Granted it was a bit more reveling since my shoulders were out but everyone complimented this outfit. It wasn't tight but fit so nicely it was great to wear for a work cocktail party.

So much promise!
I loved this dress, or the idea of this dress! It was a back up dress and I didn't end up wearing it to the wedding I ordered it for. But I did wear it the night before because it was so pretty. However the hips were huge and I was swimming in it. The chest fit fine but with the hips it just wasn't a show stopped like I expected.

Beautiful but didn't wear
It was a very elegant dress even though it had the cut out in the front. The cut out wasn't as pronounced as I expected and it was actually a very sophisticated dress. Ultimately the dress was just a little too big. I only got a size 4 since it was one of my back up dresses.

Great color!
The dress cut was awesome on my shape. Lots of compliments on how flattering it was. No need for a bra as the material is really thick. The way we described the material was kind of like wetsuit material. It was a little odd. Overall it fit great and was a super comfortable dress to wear. It didn't get hot even though the material was so thick. It was a "back up dress" so I didn't have that many options.

10 stars if I could!
The small fit like a glove the moment I took it out. So I didn't even try on the medium. I wish I would have taken a photo of the back since it had a low cut out back...very sexy. I wasn't able to wear a bra but the fabric was so amazing I didn't need one. It sparkled in real life a bit more than I expected but it was a beautiful dress. The length was great and hit at the right spot. Very pleased with this selection! Thanks RTR!!

Wore it twice!
I ordered the 4 and 6 but ended up only trying on the 4. It was loose but still flattering, a tad short given my height but overall fit well. I wore it during the day to a bridal shower and in the evening for a celebration dinner with my husband. It was perfect for both affairs! Nice abs comfortable but still beautiful and sophisticated. Great rental.

Cute and lots of compliments
It was definitely different and everyone gave me a lot of compliments. I found it to be really large in the torso so it wasn't as sliming as I hoped. The waist was very big so maybe if I had gone down one more size I would have given it more stars. Overall it was a success and was a fun new trend to try...which is why I love RTR!!!

Adorable little number!
I wore this for a baby shower and it was very sweet. Not too formal but still very cute for the event. Lots of compliments. The waist didn't hit me in the best spot but overall I thought it was an adorable dress.

Great statement piece!
I didn't have to fuss with the necklace all night. It was a great compliment to the dress. Wore black shoes and a bag that was black with black metal. Gold wouldn't work with it.

Sexy and classy all in one dress!
I did NOT want to return this dress!! So many compliments that I just loved it. It was definitely tight so I had to go with my true size and I couldn't wear a bra. Having stopped nursing a few months back I was worried about no bra. But the fabric was so comfortable and well made that I didn't need one. If you are getting in and out of a car it's a little tight but soooooo worth it! Would love to wear this again!!!

Sexy yet sophisticated!
Great dress overall. I ordered a Large and Medium and went with the M. The L gaped a bit in the back and the medium fit like a glove. So comfortable and the fabric so nice I didn't need a bra (and I've nursed 2 kids!) I will say it rode up quite a bit when I walked so I had to keep pulling it down like the other reviews said. But overall it was perfect for a bachelorette party (maybe not a wedding as it's awfully short) loved my first rental!
