Wore this for a company holiday party. It runs a smidge large, so I would order down for a second size, but I would consider it TTS. Color is gorgeous. The sequins were not too irritating and garment was in good condition. The length was a few inches above the knee. I liked the conservative front and cute cap sleeves contrasted with the swooping back. I did not wear a bra with it - the material is substantial - but you can choose to wear one if you plan on some strategic pinning. Comfortable and fun- I wanted to buy this one. Paired it with simple diamond studs, strappy black heels and a huge cocktail ring.

This dress is very flattering and comfortable. I wore it with a strapless bra to prevent gapping at the neckline. The material was substantial enough that you did not see lumps and bumps. The arms were made of a different fabric that was nice and light. The color and style were great for a small fall wedding in NYC at a restaurant. I wore it with dove grey suede heels and dangling jade earnings. The dress had a strong (but not unpleasant) smell of cleaning chemicals at first, which faded a little. They only had a 44 available. I think a 42 would have fit better.

I did not wear this to the wedding I was planning to go to. The day ended up being much warmer than forecasted, so I went with a dress I already owned. The sleeves on this dress are very tight. There is a zipper at the bottom of the sleeves to help you put on the dress, but they were uncomfortable when zipped. Sleeves are very long. Otherwise a cute dress but not very "wow" worthy.

I did not end up wearing this dress because it was too formal for the event I was going to. It fit true to size. The sleeves were a little itchy, but bearable. It's much more conservative than you would think with the bare midriff. The high neckline and sleeves balance it out. I had trouble with the zipper- it's very stiff.

This is a fun and flirty little dress. I wore it to a holiday party and actually ended up getting engaged in it later that night, so maybe it's lucky :) Note that the gold underlay isn't an entire layer. I thought it was a little expensive of a rental for what you get. I think this is one of RTR's house brands. There was not a big difference between the 8 and the 10.

This was a backup dress that I didn't wear. The color is an orangey red rather than a deep red. The fabric felt cheaper than the other dress I rented. The fit was good and the dress seemed really comfortable.

This dress is an absolute knockout! The 8 fit true to size but RTR only had long for the date of my event. The 8R would have been perfect for 5'6" me. The long was too long even with 3.5" heels. I tried to fix with hem tape, which was moderately successful. The weight of the fabric is luxe and the color is a stunning deep red. I received tons of compliments.

This was a backup dress. I went with my first pick. The bustier fit strangely and the netting didn't lay quite right. It wasn't as flattering as the other dress. I liked the colors.

Ended up not wearing- it was too gaudy for the event I was going to. The stones are huge! Definitely a good pick if you are looking for tons of sparkle. There is nothing subtle about this necklace.

Fit true to size. The stretch panels made the dress very comfortable to move and sit in during the sit-down portion of dinner. Gorgeous color. Fit up top would work for smaller chests.

Fit true to size up top and big through the hips. Very bright green. The textured silk was a surprise; I thought it was going to be smooth. The slub silk brought the dress formality level down a level. I normally dislike exposed zippers, but the gold one on this dress is cute. Limits the accessories you can wear with it if you don't like mixing metals.

If you have broad shoulders or a toned back, this dress looks dynamite. I also got tons of complements on the color. I was sad to send it back. The dress looked small on the hanger but stretched to fix perfectly. The fabric is very forgiving. The straps were a teeny bit long (I have a small bust) but that was fixed with a slightly padded strapless bra. I thought the dress was a little itchy around the shoulders when I first put it on, but I didn't notice it the rest of the night. By the way, if you are looking for a nail polish match, Sephora by OPI's Already Famous is dead-on.
