Ordered it, didn't receive it; but saw it on someone else at same event
I received a call the day before I was to receive my dresses for a military formal. This dress had been returned damaged from previous renter. RTR was incredibly apologetic and sent me links to other dresses available - no matter what the cost difference I would not pay any more money. All things work out for the best - as I saw someone else wearing this dress at the event! She was short, petite with olive skin and it looked great on her! It was definitely more pink than I was expecting but sparkled and caught the eye in a sea of black dresses. I didn't get a chance to talk to her though to get her opinion.

Even the long was too short
This was my primary dress for a military formal. I put on the size 10Long which fit nicely everywhere except the length. It did not even come past my ankles when in bare feet. I am 5"10" and have an hourglass figure (36" hips and 34DDD). Otherwise this would have been a great dress.

Drop dead sexy
This was my back up dress and I ended up wearing it because my main choice was not long enough. I am 5'10" and it is very hard to find a dress long enough to hit the floor while wearing heels. This dress hit the target in that category. I wore 3" heels and it just brushed the floor. Felt very sexy in it and received many compliments (mainly from women, oddly enough). Now for the "not so great" for this dress. it is just like every other review says: 1) the top is large (thank goodness I have a DDD bra size), I wore it with one of those stick on bras but could have gone braless honestly. Otherwise, pinning it up behind the neck works well if your hair is down to hide it. 2) The material is VERY see through. Not a big deal in low lighting situations but it did show through in photos with flashes. Bottom line: if I owned this dress, I would definitely wear it again after getting the top altered.

Even the long was too short
Pros: This dress makes you feel very glamorous. The heft of the sequence is substantial and you feel very sexy in it. No one had anything as elaborate at the Ball I was at. Cons: 1) It is too short if you are tall. I am 5'10" and even the 10L was too short once I put 2" heels on. The 8L looked so much better on me, but the zipper would not go past the waist seem. Had to wear the 10L which was not as flattering, nor was it long enough once in shoes but I wore it anyway and felt very sexy. 2) The top is large: As most others said, the top is large which was ok for me since I am a 34F. But most women are not that size. 3) The sequence itched / bothered my arms but this wasn't a huge deal. Otherwise, it was a lovely dress, my boyfriend liked it and I received many compliments.
