I ended up not wearing the dress because of fit issues.
The dress is really pretty, well made, etc. It just didn't fit me well! The chest area for the size two fit (although was on the small side) but the bottom was really loose and unflattering. I couldn't have fit in a size 0 in the top part. So it was a bummer. But if it does fit, it's gorgeous!

Red Ashley Cut Out Dress

Comfortable and fun!
I thought it actually fit true to size. I'm a 32C and the bust area was snug/fitted but not overly so and the size 2 was too loose in the waist and hips. I could wear a regular bra (versus strapless) which was awesome! And sometimes dresses like this tend to be super short on me but this wasn't - hit mid thigh or eve lower. I never had to worry about it being too short and showing my butt. Got several compliments on it. Could be dressed up or down depending on jewelry and shoes. Would definitely rent again!

Gorgeous, comfortable, classic
LOVED this dress. Would buy it if it goes on sale ever. Ended up wearing the size 0 although I'm guessing both would have fit. Super comfy with the rouching and got tons of compliments. Very flattering. Pics not great for this but in the group shot, I'm on the left so you can see full length. Added the second so you can see up close of the neck line.

Fun, comfortable, tons of compliments!
Wore this to a holiday party and it was perfect! The pics make the dress look orange, which I would say it is, but at the party which was dimly lit, everyone thought it was red. Either way, very fun and festive and so many people came up to compliment me! The dress definitely stands out! Also love it with the necklace I rented (see pic). It does run small - normally in this brand I'm a size 2 or sometimes 0. I did wear the 2 but it was snug - the rib cage part is where you'd have problems on it being too small. But I actually think the 4 would have been too big.

I actually ended up not wearing the dress because it seemed a little fancy for our event. But it was really pretty and I'd definitely rent it again for a summer wedding!

Fun, flirty, comfortable!
I liked this dress! I think I could have actually sized down - normally I wear a 2, sometimes a 0, and this would have been the same case for this dress (but I got a 4 for my second size). I got several compliments on it - sorta business looking in the front and fun in the back! Didn't need to wear a bra and felt well supported still. The only reason I didn't give the dress 5 stars was because it wasn't one of those that I would buy, although definitely a great rental!

Tons of compliments
This dress was gorgeous! Very classy but an AWESOME back! I got tons of compliments all night whenever someone saw the back of the dress. Also very comfortable. I'm a 34 B/C and didn't need a bra but felt well supported. I'm 5'7" and the dress is definitely on the longer side but makes it classy since the back is so open. Wore with a gold bracelet, earrings and shoes and loved it! My boyfriend loved it so much that he wants me to buy it.

Really loved this dress! Perfect wedding, cocktail, party dress!
Favorite RTR dress so far. It is very slim fit but the liner is pretty snug so it holds things in well. Didn't need a bra but wore a strapless one to give me a little more volume in my chest. Length was actually great! Didn't feel like it was too short. Got tons of compliments!

Fun, comfortable dress!
This was a fun dress! Wore it to a NYE party - easy to dress up or dress down. It definitely runs large - I probably could have even wore a size 0 (but the 2 fit well enough) and I'm normally a 4. It's poofier in the skirt than the images show but that helps make it comfy (you could eat ANYTHING and your stomach will not show). Easy to wear a normal bra and the straps don't show. Wore with black booties and a fun necklace.

Got several compliments on this super comfy, gorgeous dress!
Size 4 BCBG true to size. Great fit. I'm 5'7" and it was knee length so maybe a little long for anyone shorter. Easy to wear strapless bra underneath. Very classy dress - wore as a guest at a wedding.
