Good birthday dress (if you’re not eating)!
Great material, but the fit is a struggle. The 6 was way too big to have to wear without a bra, but the 4 was snug, and even though I ran my into it fitting by the end is dinner I could barely breathe!

"Girls night out"
This dress definitely runs small and be prepared to show a LOT of cleavage! Super fun dress overall for the right occasion! The small was tight, but the tighter fit worked better as it kept everything tucked in.

Could have used a smaller size
I ended up having to tape these pants to make them fit because RTR did not send my free backup size. I think the size down would have been perfect so it's disappointing I didn't get a chance to try them.

Love the color!
The color is perfect for a fall wedding, and the material is a little heavier which makes it nice and warm. The shoulders fit a little bit narrow and I wasn't expecting the cuffs on the sleeves, but otherwise, Loved It!

Wanted to keep!
This dress is fantastic! It would be a perfect edition to the closet for a more non-traditional LBD. I sized up based on the reviews and stylist notes, but wish I would have sized down. The 6 was huge on me, and 4 was a bit baggy, a 2 would have been a great option to have. On the plus side I had a massive dinner so at least I was comfy!

Love!!!
This dress was fantastic! Both the 2 and the 4 fit, but the 2 was a little tight in the arms so I went with the 4. The sheer panel hit the perfect spot to make a great shape overall. Loved it, would absolutely rent again and wish I owned it! This is a rather timeless piece with a little edge.

Wedding perfect!
The top of this dress does run large. It has a built in support system but I still opted for a bra to help keep it up. The shape and structure of the dress are awesome, as is the color combination. It was a bit worn in the inside but looked perfect on the outside.

Love!!!
This dress is amazing! I would say it runs a little large. I ordered the small and extra small, and the small was quite large. The extra small fit like a glove and still allowed room to breathe and eat! The color is more hot pink than red but for a summer birthday dinner it was 100% perfect. I wish I would have been able to keep it!

Why wouldn't you want a cape?!
I rented this last minute for a work benefit, and it was a perfect! Elegant and chic, and the cape adds a little extra flair. It does need a statement necklace so keep that in mind. It does run big in the front and I wish I would have gotten a smaller backup size instead of sizing up. My body shape has changed in the recent months with running so I'm still adjusting to what sizes will work so it could just be me on the size. Overall, another rental I wish I could keep!

Perfect color!!!
Yet another rental I wanted to keep! I'm glad I sized up for my backup, I didn't even try the 4 on because the 6 was perfect. It was the perfect color, length, and just enough of something extra with the cutouts. The only downfall is trying to find the right undergarments because anything non-smooth will show thru. Would totally rent again!

Didn't wear it - too big
I wish, wish, wish this would have worked as it was really cute, but the small was HUGE on me and even if I tried to belt it there was just too much excess fabric to make it work.

Get ready to show some leg!
I wore this for a date night out and it fit great! Definitely has a sex appeal factor I wasn't anticipating. The shorts are short, and the slit is open and high. At almost 5'3" I wore a 4 - 5" heel, and it just skimmed the ground so it was the perfect length. A little difficult to go to the bathroom alone with the zipper in the back, but that's my only downfall!

Overall amazing dress! It definitely runs small. I ordered the S and M, and didn't even try the S on based on how snug the M was. I almost wish I would have done a M and L to have the option, but the M totally worked! Would love to have this dress in my closet.

This dress is all about sex appeal so for the right event this is the perfect dress! I didn't actually wear it, other than trying it on and walking around the house, as I received as a backup dress and it was over the top for a work event. The front is low cut with the sheer panel so the cleavage is definitely there. The side panel cutouts limit bra wearing abilities as even a backless bra would have shown on the sides. I would love to own this dress!!!!

Super unique dress
This is by far the most unique dress I've worn. It's made of scuba suit material which I wasn't sure how I felt about, but ended up not minding it as it kept great form for the dress. I was very surprised it has little holes in it as based on the picture unless you look really, really close you can't tell. It ended up not being a problem but was still surprising. Overall after I paired the dress with a belt and amazing shoes the total look came together awesome and I got tons of compliments!

Perfect for Vegas!
Great dress for a night in Vegas! Overall true fit for the dress. The 4 fit a bit better, but it was riding up a bit when I walked and given it's a shorter dress as is I didn't want to risk it. Difficult to sit in as the sequins cut into your legs, but perfect for standing at the Craps table and gambling! I had been wanting to try this dress again, and would definitely rent again

Gorgeous, Gorgeous, Gorgeous!!!
This dress was perfect for my work holiday party!!! Both the 4R and the 6R fit, but the 6R was just a bit too loose so I opted for the 4R. I will say it runs long! I rocked 5" heels and still had a few stepping on the front troubles. The color varies on lighting. In day lighting it was more of a periwinkle, but at night in the dark lights it was almost purple. Overall, amazing dress!

Perfect for NYE!
Ordered this dress as a back up, and ended up wearing instead! Perfect dress for NYE! It's a bit heavier material than I anticipated so staying warm was great. Great length - not too short, not too long. Only issues were the sequins under the arms would get stuck to the ones on a the sleeves, and my arms would get "stuck", also the sleeves were a little short. Not a big deal I just kept them pushed up all night. Tons of compliments, would rent again! It was a little big in the midsection, I only had the one size so not sure if one size down would have fit better.

Didn't work out
I was super excited for this dress! Love, love, love the color and it was my first choice for NYE, but I couldn't pull it off. It was much longer than anticipated, and a complete boob show. I'm not large busted by a long shot, just average and this was a "girls night out" kind of dress. Glad I got a backup!

Such a fun dress!
This dress is perfect for the right event! It's way poofier than shown in the picture, to the point where I was the "girl in the tutu". I was surprised how short the top was given how short I am. It was a bit big so I belted it with a thin belt, and that really helped. With how short the top was it made it much more low cut than I was anticipating so the right bra is essential. Great dress for a fun event!

Beautiful Fit!
This dress fit like a glove! Does wonders for the figure, but I didn't love it like I've loved other rentals. Unfortunately as soon as I got to my event the thread/stitching holding together the side bustle came undone, and I had to safety pin it together. Made walking a big tricky, but I was able to get through the evening. Very heavy material, and on an unusually warm fall day/evening I was hot in this dress. Definitely would be great for a winter formal event!

Perfect date dress!
Wore this dress for a hot date night, and it was perfect!!! Cannot wear a standard bra with it, but the material is thick enough where I didn't have to wear one at all, and I still felt comfortable and you couldn't tell. The material has no give so that's something to keep in mind as you look at sizing. I got the 4 and 6, but the 6 was too loose in the upper back part and the 4 fit like a glove. Would definitely rent this dress again - I loved it!

Beautiful color!!!
I rented this dress for a banquet with my boyfriend, and meeting his family for the first time - perfect dress! The 6 was huge so I'm glad I did the 4 backup - fit perfect. The only thing I disliked about this dress is the belt runs through the inside of the dress so your skin shows a bit on the sides - I found this really odd, but couldn't figure out a different way to wear it without belting it all the way around, and then you lose the "cape" part.

Great for winter!
I wore this dress for a night out with my boyfriend and it was perfect for winter! It was shorter than I anticipated, and I'm only 5'3" so I'm glad I wanted to to wear dark tights with it. The shoulder was a little snug under the arm, but overall the fit was okay.

Didn't get to wear it :(
Unfortunately I was unable to wear this dress :( I ordered the 4 and 6, both were too small, and the 6 which I could have made fit had a very big stain on the front. Based on my location and the time frame RTR was unable to get me a replacement dress for Christmas Eve. I so wanted this to work out as I thought it was a beautiful dress, but just wasn't in the cards.

I want to keep this dress forever!!!
This dress was absolutely amazing! I wish I didn't have to return. I ordered the 4 and 6, I've been between both of those several times on RTR. I could have gotten away with the 4, but the 6 was more forgiving/comfortable. I did end up wearing Spanx underneath because the fuller skirt didn't flair out until right below my waist, and the dress does run slim through the waist. The material of this dress is wonderful! It's a little heavier making it perfect for cooler weather. RTR continues to impress me with the wide variety of rental options, the ease of receiving/returning, and their amazing customer service - so glad I found this website!!! Update - I loved it so much, I styled it down for work on Monday with a white jacket, black nylons, and simple black pumps

One of my favorite dresses all time!
I loved this dress! The fabric was gorgeous! It definitely runs large. I typically am between a 4 and 6, and wore the 4 with plenty of room to spare. I wish I would have had the 2 to try, but it was comfortable with no Spanx needed in the 4. The length fell right above the knee making it perfect for a fall wedding. Would definitely rent this dress again!

Overall, good dress!
Overall I really liked this dress and got a ton of compliments on it. A couple downfalls though - could tell it's been worn quite a bit as it had several snags in it, and it was easy to get caught on things. The bottom layer was a bit longer than the top layer so everytime I sat down I had to tuck the layer up to even it out. Overall fit was amazing and the color was perfect for a fall wedding!

This dress was fabulous and I got a ton of compliments at my formal dinner for work! It did run a little short/snug, I'm typically a 4 and wore the 6R so I could get a little extra length and be more comfortable. I wore 2 1/2" heels and the dress didn't quite hit the floor. Overall - amazing dress and super easy process. I rented for the wrong week on accident, and RTR updated my order no problem - great customer service.
