Zoom Birthday made special with sparkles!
I rented this to make my Zoom birthday party feel more normal during all this. Obviously the way it looked from the chest up was most important and people were very into it!! Plus, it was super comfy and I couldn't resist taking it for a spin walking the dog and showing off that it was pants. The 12 fit in every way except zipping all the way in the back which was actually fine, I pinned it at the top and it looked like an open back design. Thanks for this little bit of glamour, RTR!

Wore for my rehearsal dinner with some red pumps and red lips and it was perfection.
It does show off every curve-for better or worse! Lots of cleavage as well. I loved the lace and the color which was like a sexier, shorter version of my wedding dress-so perfect for rehearsal. Wore it with a cute birdcage veil, red pumps, and red lips.

Bachelorette Party-sexy and fun and comfortable!
I rented this for my bachelorette party and I felt sexy and comfortable all night. The only thing is that it is VERY low cut, so I did feel a little uncomfortable with how much cleavage I was showing but that is just me (and I have a lot to show off). I think others mentioned the straps being too long, if I had pinned them that might have helped but they weren't as long on me to where they were slipping off. The cutouts on the side were fun. Great material, comfortable enough in it to do some karaoke leg kicks! Downside: the zipper gets a bit stuck around the belting so I needed help to get it on and off every bathroom trip. Worth it!

Got this as a backup and wore it to other events because I loved it!
Flattering all around, modest enough to probably even wear to work but I wore it to a boat cruise and out for drinks with friends. Zipper actually allows for you to go to the bathroom unassisted! Great sturdy material. This is the first jumpsuit I've ever had that I found flattering on!

Backup dress got a ton of compliments! My friend said I looked like Beyonce!
This was sent to me as a backup. I didn't like it at first, honestly, I thought it looked a bit Mother of the Bride" to me. BUT I ended up having to wear it last minute and it grew on me. Very pretty in person and got a TON of compliments. Very comfortable. I wear a 12 usually but the 16 fit me like a glove.

Sparkles, flattering, comfortable!
I loved this dress and the other one I rented so much and I couldn't decide so I did a costume change halfway through the gala! It was so much fun to wear this dress, sparkly and flattering, and one of the most comfortable dresses I've ever worn on top of everything. I am short but it wasn't as short or as low cut as I thought it was going to be which was great for me.

It was so much fun to wear this dress, sparkly and flattering, and one of the most comfortable dresses I've ever worn on top of everything. Wears like a sheath, not tight, and I am short but it wasn't as short as I thought it was going to be which was great for me.

Eye-catching color, flattering arm draping, lots of compliments!
Was probably my sixth choice of dress, the others weren't available, but loved wearing it! Thick, quality, comfortable fabric with some give. Hugs the curves, for better or worse depending on how you feel about them. True to size, including length so the L was a little long on short me w/flats. Really lovely flattering draping for hiding arm imperfections and flattering the chest. Gorgeous eye-catching color without being too in your face bright. Lots of compliments, very va-va-voom!

Too snug to wear.
Gorgeous dress, I was bummed that it was too snug for me to wear/wouldn't zip.

Beautiful flowing skirt, top fit awkwardly on me.
I didn't end up wearing this one. It fit ok, though maybe a bit snug, and had a beautiful flowing skirt that lays and floats perfectly. The problem for me is that being busty on top, the draping laid awkwardly and without pinning it up, I was not feeling very secure in there With the back, would be difficult to wear a bra to help. Gorgeous dress, just awkward on me.

Stunning, lots of compliments, comfy!
I wish the 12 had been available as I think it might have fit me a bit snugger. However, with some pinning, I was able to wear this one (though the fabric is thick and sturdy so a bit hard to pin). Length was perfect, just touched the floor in the back with my heels. Pockets were an awesome bonus-you can actually put things in them and couldn't tell! Lots of compliments, one woman said I looked like a watercolor painting. Really nice quality and beautiful dress all around.

Very pretty detailing!
I didn't end up wearing this one though it did fit true to size. For me, it showed so much of my back that it was unflattering because of my body type. The dress is gorgeous though and actually another woman was wearing it at the event I went to (so probably a good thing I didn't choose it) and she looked absolutely stunning in it!

Runs snug but wow that train!
This dress is not for the modest (lots of skin on top and bottom), I wanted to wear it so badly but couldn't get into the sizes I ordered-the dress, especially the underskirt, runs small so size up from the biggest size you normally wear, is my advice. I wanted to wear it because the longer skirt billows behind you when you walk in a way that is straight out of a music video-so elegant and a major wow factor! Reviews are right-pictures don't do it justice.

Tons of compliments; fun and sparkly!
I wore this for my "13 Going on 30" themed birthday party-I wanted something sparkly and fun and comfortable and this was all of those things. I felt it was very flattering for my fuller-sized body type and I got a ton of compliments. Sequins are definitely more on the gold side than the rose side, and they can be a little scratchy but not bad at all. I loved everything about the experience of renting and wearing this dress.
