Beautiful Accent Perfect for Formal Events; Noticeable Yet Timelessly Elegant

I want to own these because every girl should have these as a "Bread and Butter" Pair for Formal events; the style, shape, size - don't think you can ever go wrong really. Loved them though they do get a bit heavy after 5 hours...other than that...great looking go-to pair of earrings

The amazing purple tone and the way the material falls makes it a truly elegant dress:)

Very Comfortable and flattering dress; was actually a last minute substitute for my original dress that had become unavailable (The Tibi Blue Tribal Gown); at first I was skeptical when I saw it online and wasn't sure I would like it; but when it arrived and I put it on, I then I realized that's why the stylists at RTR do what they do - thanks Meg B. for doing your job well:)) Overall, the dress was great from the waist down though the top was a little large for me, but nothing some body glue, a nu-bra, and a bit of pinning behind the halter neckline couldn't fix...once again a great experience and RTR is always good about offering alternatives and options when original orders don't work out as planned - love you guys!! My go to place every time:)

The BF said it was the best dress I had ever rented for myself - the magenta really popped on stage.

Wore this for a pageant judging event; the perfect blend of "wow" factor as the dress's off-center and unique prints stand out (along with the magenta on the neck halter and belt), yet it is "not overly formal". Paired this with my burnish gold Manolo Blahnik sandals (can be seen in picture) and magenta clutch and had so much fun in the outfit. Highly Recommend this dress for events where you need to be formal/noticed but not overdone.

I paired these with the Camilla & Marc Ruched and Famous Dress and NO other jewelry, and it looked amazing. The center stone is actually much darker in person (it appears PEACH in the picture, although it actually is a darker pink/brown color (if you zoom in on the earrings, you'll probably be able to see the true color better; but it is certainly NOT peach, and more pink/brown). Either way, they are beautiful, albeit a little heavy but not unbearable (I went to a wedding/vow renewal ceremony and danced around without pain so all is well if you do decide to rent this:). Think it can pair with either a whie/off white and of course a beige/champagne dress that I did pair it with.

Did not end up wearing this dress as it was very loose on me. Another minus - it's WHITE, and given that it's a rental, it looks like it's had its days...still a lovely design, but needs "help" with accessories I think to really POP for whatever occasion you may need this for. Ended up wearing Camilla and Marc's ruched and famous dress for a White/Beige Wedding Ceremony and loved it.

Rented this for a pageant event I was judging; paired with my own costume earrings and the Montecarlo Bangle Set; it looked amazing.  I am 5'3" and very curvy with a smaller waist (typically I wear a 10 in Regular Sizes, but found the 8 in this dress was perfect (found it very helpful that RTR allows you to order an addtl size just in case).  The dress hit just below my knees and I found the length really worked well.  Great dress; would certainly rent again.

This dress is definitely more metallic in person, and comes off more cream/champagne and also "sparkly" in photographs. Rented this for my friend's 5 year vow renewal ceremony where I was a reader (It was the right dress without looking like you were "trying too hard"). Extremely figure flattering, I got both a 6 and 8, and as this is VERY true to size, the 6 fit me perfectly. It hugs in all the right spots with just a bit of give in the fabric for mobility. I paired with the Rachel Leigh Primrose Drop Earrings and got just the type of look I was going for (both the earrings and this dress were actually my back up after my first dress was too big and the earrings I had originally rented became unavailable) - I'm glad that my original plan didn't work out!! This is a great dress in-person, a little more ruching than it appears in the picture, and not as "green" either - definitely beige, champagne and "sparkly". Would rent again as a solid, reliable dress!

Wore this with RTR's Helmut Lang Licorice Dress paired w/my own "blingy" costume earrings and it was perfect. Got so many compliments on the bangles and they truly are lovely to look at; I may purchase them!!
