Ridiculously TINY!
I rented the 0R and 2P. I am usually either of these sizes. The bottom fit fine in the 2R, but the top half was soooo tight. I probably would have done well in a 6P. The 2P I couldn't even get it above my hips. I am 54, 5'3" 118 lbs. 32B.

Soooo Beautiful - But Went with Another Option
I was totally torn between this gown and another that I rented for a formal black tie event, but opted for a more modest look. There is absolutely NOTHING wrong with it, it's soooo slimming. But, the plunge was just too much for me. I did buy some boob tape and it helped. But honestly, I didn't want to worry about it all night so back the gown went. For someone who it doesn't bother, it's a must rent! For reference, I am 5'3" 118 lbs. and 32B.

Great fitting piece!!!!
Ended up wearing this little beauty for another event than what I originally brought it in for. I wore it to a luncheon, with over the knee boots and a black coat (It was January) and it was right on point!!!! Great fit, the flare isn't too kicked out and it skims your figure rather than hugging it. The pattern is awesome, looks much more expensive in person. A must!!!!

So much fun!!!!
Great dress, fabulous color, so much fun to wear!!!!! I was worried about the cut when I ordered this dress. But read in reviews that the fabrication was stretchy and forgiving. All very true!!!!! The see through part is really well placed, I am 45 and don't typically go there anymore. But this was very tasteful and playful at the same time!!!! Great great dress!!!! One word though, go up one size, forget vanity and enjoy it!!!!

This blouse is EVERYTHING!!!!
By far my favorite rental to date. So easy to wear, and universally flattering, lightweight, and spot on trend for the season (and beyond for that matter!) True to size, and super versatile! I wore it for a lunch with friends here. And then to a night out with the gals on another day! A friend loved it so much she went online and bought one for herself!!!! Don't even question it, trust me, it's a sure win! The only thing I hated about it was that it didn't belong to me. ;-)

BEAUTIFUL GOWN, but not the right cut for my body ~
First of all this gown is GORGEOUS! A true showstopper. I know Khan, and have attended her runway shows when she's in Houston. Her pieces are flawless, she has such a great grasp of what women want to wear!!!! Unfortunately, I was unable to wear this piece. The body is cut straight and the fabric has no stretch whatsoever, so my hips were an issue. HOWEVER, for those gals that are straight through the torso and hips, you are going to LOVE this gown!!!! The color is the perfect red and the train in back is just the right amount of drama. It broke my heart to send it back unworn. Fit advice no matter what, go up one size, it's cut small.

Beautiful Dress but not for me :-(
This is a gorgeous and classic piece with some "Art Deco" details that make it amazing. My size was not available, so I tried one size smaller. Nope, this is true to size. Regardless, it was just not right for me too much going on with the pleats and embellishments. Someone with a long straight torso would do very well in this. If this is you, RENT IT!!!!!

A No Brainer
ABSOLUTELY the most fabulous gown I've ever worn! Wore this to the Symphony Opening Night Show and Gala. We were featured in our city's article about the event, and the compliments were through the roof. The shoulder pads are key and if you are curvy, this dress forgives all. I'm a fashion stylist, so I have to show up, well this little number did it just perfectly. Adore!!!!!

I Needed to Be Taller for This Dress
Great dress, love the back and the neckline. You really need to be long in the body and taller to really carry this dress off. I wore it and got tons of compliments, but it really showed up in pictures that the cut overwhelmed my frame. Recommended for ladies 5'7" and up.

Perfect In Every Way!!!!
Attended a gala with my husband that was being chaired by two of my clients, so I wanted to impress!!!! As a fashion stylist, I am my own walking billboard. So thankful for RTR, I'd go bankrupt trying to wear something different to all the many events we attend!!!! The subtle sheen illusion under the lace is so pretty and the fit is super flattering!!!! I just broke up all of the black with a statement necklace and wore my black Blahniks and BOOM perfection!!!!

The Perfect Column Gown
I'm a fashion stylist, so attend dozens of events every season. It's imperative that I look my best and that my clothing fits me perfectly. I'm 5' 5", with full hips, and very short legs (27" inseam) and the 4R worked with my 5" platforms perfectly!!!! Love, love, love the way the detail at the waist flattered my shape. I was worried that my hips wouldn't work in this. But it fit like a glove, but not too restricting!!! I did however pull out the big guns with my Spanx. But I felt like a million bucks in this dress and got compliments all night at the gala I attended with my husband! Didn't want to send it back!!!!
