Classy and Comfortable
I rented this dress for a formal fall wedding. It was perfect. The lace is a heavier cotton lace that was slightly strechy and forgiving in the areas that needed it (i.e. around the tummy and butt region). I also liked the sleeves. They were not quite a cap sleeve but were short enough to be flattering. The other nice thing was that I was able to wear a standard black bra with the dress. Overall, I would highly recommed if you're looking for a classy, yet comfortable, confidence booster!

I felt GORGEOUS in this dress
I wore this to a black tie wedding and loved every moment in it! I stood out from about 300 guests with this great bright red color and received many complements. I wore a chunky black jewel necklace and matching bracelet. The dress fit was very snug in the natural waste area and larger in the chest region. I think it would work well for someone with a larger chest. You can wear a deep cut strapless brand you want, but you don't need to since there is boning in the top part of the dress from the waste up. I would suggest using some fashion tape to help secure the strapless side where you want it to stay, but everything else worked perfectly. I will probably be renting this one again for some other BT weddings. LOVED IT!!

Not very flattering!
I rented this dress after a panic attack from renting a dress that was too fitted for my comfort zone and ended up being even more disappointed. The description makes you believe you need a longer length than you really do, and the back of the dress from the hips up to the top of the zipper was loose. It was an awkward fit and made me look bigger than I really was as a result. Maybe it if was 2 sizes smaller than my usually size it would have worked, but I was not a fan of this one.

Form fitting
This was supposed to be my first choice dress but I ended up going with my back up dress. The dress itself and the length were nice but I did not feel comfortable in such a tight dress. It's very fitted in the hip/butt region and I don't have overly voluptuous curves. If you have the confidence, go for it! If you're more body conscious, skip it and get something with a natural waste line.

Surprisingly flattering!
This dress so far is my favorite short dress that I've rented from RTR. It was super comfortable and makes your waste seem tiny! I wore the smaller of the 2 sizes I ordered and paired with a skinny dark pink belt. The pink belt really added a pop to the dress and helped draw the eye to the waste line. The belt also helped pull the subtle shades of pink out of the fabric pattern. I also wore a chunky pink necklace to match the belt. Such a great dress. I would also put this one in my closet if I could :)

Great dress for summer wedding
This dress was so much fun to wear! I certainly stood out from the rest of the guests and multiple people commented how much they loved it, including the bride. I was initially worried it would be too casual for a wedding but paired with chunky pearls and it was perfect. Fit slightly larger up top and snug around the hips/butt due to the non-stretch lining. If it wasn't for the lining I would have sized down to the 6. I would buy this if I had the chance... Great dress!

Classy evening dress!
I loved this dress. I wore it to a gala event and felt great all night. It's very flattering for the not so perfect tummy areas! I added a thick black ribbon with a flower on it and it seemed to help complete the dress. I would rent again for a similar occasion.

It was just OK
The dress wasn't very flattering due to how it's cut. If I had a gold belt it probably would have worked a lot better. It was a nice dress but I have to admit it didn't live up to my expectations.

Cute and fun dress, but can add a little "volume" in the wrong areas.
