I wore this for a gala and loved every minute of wearing it! It's a little more than I usually try to spend on a RTR order, but I'd had my eye on it for a while and couldn't forget about it. And I don't regret it! I ordered the 10L and the 12R—I wish they would've had the 12L in stock because I would've gone with that. At 5'5" and with 3 1/2" heels, the long length would've been preferred (even for an average-height person like me), but I needed the size 12 to fit my 36DD chest. Note for large-chested women, I said the gown runs small because the bodice is tiiiiiight on large boobs. The positive side to that is that I could go braless, which was good because the chest area is cut pretty narrow and any style of bra would've peeked out the sides. Pros: definitely a standout look; thick, beautiful fabric; easy to style because it makes its own statement; lots of compliments, even from strangers. Cons: narrow chest area meant being conscious of arm placement to lessen side boob exposure. :) But I'd still rent this dress again in a heartbeat!

Loved this dress! Classic and simple without being boring. It is a heavier fabric, so while it was perfect to wear as a guest to an October wedding, I think it'd be pretty toasty during warmer months. Excuse the crazy-mom picture; this is the best shot of the dress I got that night! But I loved pairing it with pearl statement jewelry and black patent leather pumps. So easy!

I felt so beautiful! This dress seemed to run pretty true to size, apart from the bust area which was huge. I'm normally a DDD and am currently breastfeeding, and the bust area was STILL roomy on me. (Reason for the four star review.) But despite the confusing top part, below the bust was perfection. Even at 2 1/2 months postpartum, I felt elegant and confident because this dress flattered and concealed in all the right places. I would rent this dress again in a heartbeat! Just plan to spend a little time rigging it up with some safety pins and dress tape.
