Perfect in every way
I wish I could justify owning this stunning dress! The color, the fit, the style--perfect. I chose this dress for a wedding in which the attire was "Texas Black Tie." The drop waist and the flowing skirt, along with the belt helped this feel a bit Texas. This is one of my very favorite colors too, which was a bonus. The flowy skirt was great for dancing, and the dress was extremely comfortable. I ordered the 6 and 8, and while the 6 fit, I knew the 8 would be more comfortable. There is a bit of give to the top of this dress, but going up was the right choice for me. I felt beautiful in this one, and was sad to zip it back into the bag to return. Highly recommend this beautiful dress!

This dress worked perfectly for our family photos!
I ordered this dress to wear for family photos while on vacation in North Dakota. I needed one piece to use to coordinate the rest of the family's outfits, and this worked perfectly. It was a great, summer pattern that went well with our backgrounds. I ordered a 4 and a 6, and like other reviewers said, the 4 was tight around the rib cage. I wasn't able to get it zipped. The 6 zipped well, but was a little loose around the hips. I ended up pinning the back to try to tighten it up around my hips to be more flattering for the photos. The ruffles around the bottom are very feminine and fun. I'd recommend this dress!

Unique, colorful and flattering
I rented this as a backup for a wedding, and it worked perfectly for the rehearsal dinner party. The material on this dress is very light and comfortable, not at all heavy as it appears on some pictures. The texture of the fabric is very unique--almost like looking at a painting on canvas. The color combination is very beautiful and unlike any I've seen. I liked that I could wear a regular bra with it as well. You can't quite beat a dress with pockets! My party was on a riverboat on a breezy evening, so I was wishing I'd remembered to pack my shorts to wear underneath. It was a struggle to keep the dress from blowing up, so if that's a worry for your event, remember to pack shorts! I really loved everything about this dress, and wish it was going back in my closet instead of back to RTR. I highly recommend this beauty!

Pretty dress that runs small
I didn't end up wearing this dress for the wedding. It's pretty, and is great quality, but it was too small for me. I couldn't get it zipped, and if I had been able too, my skin was squishing out of the cutouts. Order a size up on this one.

Stunningly beautiful in every way
Two words--simply striking. Why oh why can't I keep this dress? I am absolutely in love with everything about this beautiful piece of clothing. The color, the style, the fit, the comfort--I wouldn't change a thing. This happens to be my favorite color, and it's truly striking. I love the one shoulder look, and the back was also very pretty. After I placed my original order for this dress in my standard size of 4, I read some more reviews and found that most users thought it ran small. RTR was helpful in changing my order to a 6, and I'm so grateful. Had I gotten a 4, it wouldn't have worked for me and I would have missed out on the most beautiful and flattering dress I've ever worn. I didn't want my evening to end, and I'm very sad to see it going back. I hope the next renter enjoys it as much as I did!

Fun summer dress!
This was a great summer dress for an outdoor bridal shower. The colors were vibrant and unique, and the fit was loose and flowy. The style of the top of the dress was very flattering, and the details on the lace work were very pretty. It is a bit short though, especially if you're on the tall side, so wearing little shorts under was a good idea. This was a great first RTR experience for me!
