After reading the reviews and clicking through the photos of other renters wearing this dress, I decided to rent this dress for a wedding. I have an athletic build and consider myself to be fairly petite (5'3", 125 lbs) and I normally order my dresses from RTR in sizes 0 and 2. Based on the reviews, I ordered this dress in a 2 and a 4, because several ladies mentioned that the dress is somewhat tight and pretty short. When the dress arrived, I was so excited, because the colors were super vibrant. However, after I pulled the dresses out of the bag, I realized that they both looked REALLY small on the hanger. I started by trying on the four, as the two looked far too little, and was so disappointed to find that I could not even zip the dress up all the way. Although the fabric was stretchy, it was also pretty thick, and after pulling the zipper up about halfway, I felt like a sausage and could barely breathe. Also, the length was really scandalous! It appeared more like a tunic that would require leggings in order to be worn in public than a dress that could be worn without pants. I imagine that if I had chosen a bigger size, the length would have been slightly more appropriate, but it still would have been really short! Honestly, the dress itself is really pretty and I would have loved to wear it if the fit was better. I would consider renting this again (though I would probably need a size 6 or even 8) but I would be nervous that it would still be too short.
