But do I really have to return this dress...?

I wore this dress to a black tie optional wedding. I had been eyeing it for months and was completely in love with it. It did not disappoint. I wore the 6L to go with my high heels so the train swept the gown in the back just slightly. I didn't have to wear a bra but for extra measure, I threw on some double stick tape (which I didn't really need). Because of the fabric, print and low v, I only paired it with stud earrings and opted for my hair down. Oh and it has pockets which was perfect to carry my phone around in at the reception. I felt super glamorous, comfortable and sophisticated. Tons of compliments all night for both the ladies and gents. I'm sad to have to return it. Would definitely rent it again.

Just the perfect pop of color for a summer wedding.

Although my husband usually likes when I go for a more plain dress, I opted for these pretty blue stripes for an afternoon wedding. The top fit perfectly but if you are a pear shape (I've got a BIG butt and thighs with a little waist) it's fits a little more snuggly than I wanted. When I tried the size up, the dress just didn't fit at all. So I opted for the 6 knowing the bottom had a little bit of stretch and give. Overall, I liked the material and the colors of the dress a lot. The fit was the only thing that was a little off.

This little gem was classy with a simple touch of flair and sparkle.

For my first time being on the event committee for Pinot & Pups Spring Gala, I knew I wanted something easy to move in. The event was hosted on 3 levels of the venue so I needed something that was comfy but still classy since I'd be running around. I went for a shorter A-line dress so I wouldn't worry about tripping on a long one or be restricted in something form fitting. I also knew there were going to be puppies in the mix. Imagine my surprise when I job was to cuddle/hold them when they weren't being photographed during 2 1/2 hours at the photo booth! The fabric was great and didn't pick much if any puppy hair. Overall I got a ton of compliments on the dress and many who were excited to try RTR after talking with me about my experience. As far as fit, the bust is smaller and was only slightly snug on me so if you're a bit bigger in the chest, I suggest sizing up. I also have a really long torso and rise, but the waist hit me right at my natural waist and the dress was still long enough that when I needed to crouch down or sit I was covered. I chose not to wear a necklace and opted for black sandal stilettos to keep it simple.
