Fitted, but comfy
When I first tried this on, I didn’t think I would go through with wearing it. The top felt loose and I didn’t want to be pulling up. I ended up buying dress tape and that did the trick to reinforce things and keep anything from slipping. The dress itself was flexible, but with structure. It hugged curves well and even allowed for easy movement. I would recommend for a formal affair.

Black tie worthy
I liked the style of this dress a lot, though I did have trouble with the size at first because the band between the top and the skirt cuts tight under the bust. I was able to stretch it out a bit before the event night, but it was still snug. Luckily the skirt hides flaws that the band may accentuate. I wore my normal size because the size up would have been too big in the bust area. Overall the dress was perfect for feeling glamorous and I loved that it had pockets.

Perfect for Key West and Florida!
The color of the dress is what initially drew me to it. I thought it would work perfect for South Florida. Like other reviewers have said, it does run a little short - especially when sitting. I didn't think I'd have a problem since I am already short, but I was surprised I did. Also, for comfort I wore the 4, but even that fit snug. I know part of that is simply the style of the dress. Overall I did feel really pretty in it! I rented it for 8 days so I got to wear it twice on our vacation.

Fun dress
I rented this somewhat last minute for a quickly organized wedding. Considering this was one of the few choices I had, it was still a great rental! The color made it fun and perfect for summer. The style was easy to move in and the lace made it dressy without being over the top. The only thing was the lining in the skirt kept moving its way in between my legs, almost like static cling. Also, I chose to wear the 4 since the 2 was hard to zip, but there were definitely some gaps in the bust area and near the arms. Not terribly noticeable though. I would recommend as a rental!

Perfect for a casual charity event
I wore the 2, which was just a tad snug, but fit better overall than the 4. The 4 was a little too roomy. I ended up dressing this down with sandals and a cardigan since the event was quite casual and it worked. The material was very nice and well structured. I would consider renting again!

I rented this dress for a "cocktail casual" fundraiser
I was surprised how vibrant the color is on the dress when you see it in person. It's really stunning. The fit was great. I rented a 2 and 4, and ended up wearing the 4 because it gave me a little more breathing room than the 2. One of the things that was a bummer was the inability to lift my arms high - as many of the other reviews mentioned. Luckily, this was not the event where I was dancing and moving a lot so it worked out, but if you choose to rent this for a wedding, it may prohibit getting too rowdy! Besides that, I really enjoyed this dress a lot and felt amazing in it!

I rented this dress for a formal wedding in Boston.
I ordered this dress in a 2 and 4. Ended up wearing the 2 bc it fit better all around. I chose it because the gold detail at the bottom added just the right amount of “fun” to a typical LBD. Not to mention it paired nicely with my gold jewelry. The wedding was in the fall so I added a cardigan for extra warmth while outdoors during the ceremony. Otherwise the weight of the dress was perfect for the weather. I so enjoyed wearing this dress - it was tons of fun to dance in and I can’t tell you how may people I recommended try RTR after they complimented the dress! Rent it... you will not be disappointed!
