Very tight
I felt like I followed the sizing guidelines, but this dress was TIGHT. I would not have been comfortable wearing it. Material was thick, so it would've been good for a cold weather event. I would recommend sizing up at least one.

Great dress!
I wore this to a Christmas party and LOVED it. It was comfortable throughout the night and didn't ride up. I was able to wear a strapless bra with it.

More like a big sweater
The material is more like a very thick sweater. Great for a casual wear, but it was a little too casual for the work event I rented it for. I ended up wearing it anyway, and I would definitely rent it again for a casual event. I wouldn't get this if you're looking for something formal.

A little short when sitting
I rented this for a work conference. I loved the thick scuba material, and it was very appropriate when standing. However, it was pretty darn short when sitting. I would rent this dress again.

Great sexy LBD
I loved this dress so much that I bought it. I wore the medium but could've worn the small.

Perfect dress for graduation
I wore this dress to my graduation from grad school. The fabric is on the thicker side, but I wore this in Alabama in July and was not sweltering. The fabric also has a little sparkle, which was nice. I wore the 4 and it fit perfectly. I didn't even try on the 6. Like everyone else, I LOVED the pockets!

Great for a Mardi Gras ball; not great for larger cup size
I ended up wearing the 6 in this purely for the bust. It was loose everywhere else, but the 4 made it look like the girls were in boobie prison. I would recommend a different dress if you are larger than a C cup. I'm 5'7" and wore 5" heels and still had some length to spare. I wish I had gotten the regular length instead of the long. That being said, the dress was beautiful and perfect for our Mardi Gras ball.

Great for a spring wedding!
I'm between a 4 and a 6, and I was able to wear this comfortably. The way the fabric is layered on the sides can make you look a little wide at certain angles (like this one apparently), but overall it was a cute, comfortable dress with a fun back. I would rent it again.

Wasn't able to wear this one
My main criticism is the sleeve. It is tight despite the stretchy lining material. I would say that I have just an average size arm, and the sleeve of the 6 was tight on me. I'm not sure if I would've been able to tolerate it. I wasn't able to wear this due to an odor on the dress. RTR took care of all of that, though!

Went perfectly with the dress I rented, which had a high neckline.

Wore this the night we got engaged!
This fit wonderfully, and there are clips under the straps to help hold your bra straps in place. I thought I was renting this dress for a date night, but it ended up being engagement night! It was comfortable the whole night, and I didn't feel like I needed spanx after eating a big dinner.

Great for a night out
The fabric is a bit shinier than it appears on the model. It was a little shorter than I'm comfortable with, but the fabric was lightweight and great for a night out in Austin. Would rent again!

Best worn for a professional event
I rented this for a night out, but it's a dress that is better suited for an office affair or a semi-formal dinner. The skirt is very voluminous, and the fabric is thick. I did love that the dress had pockets. I would probably rent this again for an occasion which required professional attire.

Great for a rehearsal dinner
I rented his dress and a teal RJ Graziano necklace to wear to a rehearsal dinner. The dress has a very stretchy fabric that is thick and good quality. It was very forgiving, and I ended up wearing one size smaller than normal. I would order a smaller size for your backup size.

I rented this necklace to wear with a lavender Tibi dress (also from RTR) to a rehearsal dinner. The combination was great! I would definitely rent this necklace again

Much different than shown on the model
This dress was not at all what I was expecting based on the picture on the model. The sequins are definitely not silver, as depicted in the model; they are gold and an iridescent blue. I tried to capture in my photo just how holographic the sparkle is. I felt like a walking disco ball. The dress was very tight across the hips and waist but strangely loose in the top. The mesh panel in the back billows out, and even though other reviews suggest you could wear a nude bra underneath, I absolutely would not. I felt like my bra straps showed right through. I ended up returning this dress without wearing it, and RTR's wonderful customer service gave me a rental credit since they couldn't ship a new dress out in time for my event. Disappointed with the dress but oh so satisfied with the great customer service!

Sexy date night dress
Great dress that is perfect for a date night. I wore it with a backless bra and felt ok in terms of support since we only went out to dinner. If you are planning a night of dancing, this might be a better dress for a smaller chested lady. The dress was slightly tight across the chest, and that provided a little extra support. This dress will definitely turn heads!

Fantastic dress for New Year's Eve!
This dress fit like a glove and was perfect for NYE. The dress has plenty of forgiving stretch, and I actually ended up wearing a size smaller than I usually do. There were no scratchy sequins on this dress, and it was fully lined. I would absolutely rent this dress again!

Great dress for an office Christmas party!
I rented this dress for my office Christmas party, and it was great! The dark green color was lovely, and the sequins were in great shape on the garments I received. I ordered a large as a backup but ended up wearing the medium. The sleeves are not lined, which I wasn't crazy about at first because the sequins were just a bit scratchy. The rouching around the waist is very forgiving, and the neckline looks great if your hair is down. I would definitely rent this dress again.
