Stunning!
The dress I ordered was destroyed and RTR let me know two days before the event- yikes! But they helped me out to find something new and it was this dress. It ended up working out ok! The only size they had in this was 2 long. It was tight but fit. If the 4L was available I would have probably wore that size. I'm 5'8"- wore 3.5" heels.

National Press Club Inaugural- very pink!
Not my favorite RTR dress but probably my own fault. Pink was a little much for a winter formal event. The 2L was a great length but still a little big in the chest area. Loved the low back. In front, where the strap crossed it got a little bunchy- two sided tape may have helped. Skit was flow-ey and fun to dance in.

Black tie dinner in a saucy gown
Loved the gold lace detail and fit! I'm 5'8-1/2"- would have loved to rent the 4L if it was available but dress was an OK length with flats. LOVED the low back. True to size but a tight fit. Very elegant. Many compliments (and many other women with RTR dresses at the event- always fun to see other styles!

Elegant earrings for a formal affair
Earrings were perfect for a formal affair and really matched my black gown. Light weight, too.

WHCD original
Didn't think I would care for the dress with the initial try on, but the hair and make up brought it all together. Not sure I received a 4L- if I did it was much too short. Ended up wearing flats when I has planned on heels. Really accentuated the waist which worked well with my frame.

Fancy Spring Mermaid
Overall- loved it. My first venture with a mermaid style dress- not super fun to walk in... but own that non-fast walk. Favorites: Color- gorgeous spring green, cut, material Downfalls: Material bunched around the stomach- adding bulk that made my mid section look a little larger than it was. Also- bust was too large around my rib cage-bust. Had to make my own adjustments.. I am 5"8 and wore 3-1/2" heels and the length was perfect.

Perfect earrings for a retro look
These earrings were PERFECT for my look. They are large, but not too heavy. I would suggest an updo so you can show them off!

Beautiful
I loved the necklace but didn't end up wearing it to my event because it didn't go with my dress as well as I had imagined. I did pair it with a favorite studded blazer to get some use out of it! I would recommend this for a plain dress.

Felt beautiful for a white tie affair. Tons of compliments.
This is my favorite RTR dress I have ever worn! There is ribbing in the top of the dress, which was very slimming. The 4 was a little snug- the top seam of the dress tended to roll over a little and I had to adjust several times throughout the evening, but wasn't super noticeable. The cut of the fabric of the bottom of the dress makes is flow when you walk or dance. I think I got more compliments in this dress than my wedding dress. I wore 4" heels and the length was just about perfect.

I wanted to keep these!
These earrings rock. I wore them with a short Navy dress, but also dressed them down for an office look a different day of the rental. I would definitely rent them again.

Pretty purple dress for the White House
I am consistently a 4 in dresses, but this 4 seemed a little big. I loved the dark color and the length, but the lace in the arms seemed a little stretched out. I added a black belt for emphasis in the waist, which I would highly recommend.

Perfect dress for a party
I had a few events in a week so I ordered this as a back-up dress for a Christmas party. I liked that it wasn't super dressy. I loved the fit of the dress. The material is kind of stretchy. A few downsides- the dress looked like it had been worn quite a few times. There was an area on the side where the seam was coming undone. There was also a really strong chemical smell coming from the dress- the first time that has happened to me with a RTR dress.

Not something I would have rented had I not been able to try it on at a RTR pop-up in DC, but I'm so glad I did! It was beautiful and so comfortable. Would definitely recommend.

Formal holiday dinner in DC. Favorite formal gown I have ever worn. Tons of compliments!
The dress was a little big on top- a 2 would have probably worked better, but the 4 fit perfect on bottom half. Gown is well made. I'm 5-8-1/2 and wore 3" heels and the length was just right. Sequens were very scratchy on the arms, but the look was worth the discomfort.

Wore these with a dress I owed to the WHCD
I loved the bracelets but they were way to big for my wrist. They kept falling off! I was afraid I would lose them so I eventually had to put them in my hand bag.
