Very pretty and chic!
I described the fit as true to size, but there isn't any give to this material so it is a close fit for me. I usually have a bit of breathing room in a 6 but there's none here. The dress is really pretty. The lace and length make it a bit sexy but the sleeves and neckline keep it from being over the top. Love it! I've got to add this comment: After wearing this for a day, I can honestly say that I've never had so many compliments on a day dress.....ever! I'm probably going to buy this one!!

Silky and beautiful!
I'll be returning this for a smaller size, but it's an amazing dress. It's extremely lightweight polyester that looks and feels very silky. The floral colors are bright and the ruffle is just enough to be flirty without being too much. I love this dress and, when I find my size, I may want to buy it!

This is a gorgeous dress! Rent it!!!
The body fit was perfect but, beware, the dress is very long. I'm 5'8" and had to wear 3" heels to keep this 6R from dragging on the ground. The colors look pretty in the picture but they're much more beautiful in person. I wasn't sure that I'd like the see-through areas but they really add something special to this dress. I was surprised to see that the neckline has beading, it's subtle and pretty. Rent this one!

Pretty style
The fit was probably ok but the dress I received was damaged so it was hard to tell. I was unable to wear this to my event but the RTR group helped me to find an amazing replacement dress.

Very low cut
I didn't wear this because it was too low cut for everyday wear. Might be ok for a date though.

Way too short!
I'm 5'8" and this was way too short for me. There was no way I could have even worn this with flats. I did not wear it to the event.

Way too long!
At 5'8" regular dresses are usually ok or too short for me, not this one. Even with 3 1/2" heels the regular length gown dragged the ground. Overall, very plain gown so I didn't wear it to the event.

Pacific Blue Agnes Gown

Stylish but heavy and restricting.
Absolutely beautiful coat but not practical for everday use because the large shawl collar restricts arm movement.

Wish I could fit in this. Totally cute!
I'm a size six so I thought the small would fit but no luck. I'll probably rent this again but in a larger size. It was so cute...casual luxury!

Absolutely stunning dress!
This was a last minute (seriously..due to an ice storm it arrived three hours before my event!) replacement for my first choice that arrived damaged. What a lucky break for me because I absolutely loved it!! My top size is a bit small (34b) so the beautifully cut-out top was a bit loose. Holding my shoulders back fixed the problem and actually gave me better posture! :-). I highly tecommend this dress, it's a showstopper!
