Sexy dress. Beautiful material. But very revealing.
This material is absolutely gorgeous!!! However, I chose another RTR for the event. I do not dress conservatively, but the neckline was just too deep for me. Between the sexy, slinky material and the plunging neckline, I was scared my boob would pop out while dancing. Further, the straps were not adjustable (had they been I'd have felt way more comfortable in the dress). Fit-wise, it hugged my curves nicely, gave me a great shape, and didn't cling to my stomach.

Red Carpet Level Glam - Great Color
This is beautiful and while it looks fitted on, it actually allows for quite a bit of room. The smaller size I ordered as a backup wasn't available last minute, so it's possible one size down may have been more fitted. This dress creates a really nice hour glass shape. It's very formal, stand out, and glamorous. I got many compliments. The sequins do not rub under your arms so it's comfy to dance in. I'm 5'4", wore 4 inch heels, and the dress grazed the floor - so note it's on the long side.

Beautiful, But Long Means Long
I thought this was so unique & stunning. The 10R wasn't available so I ordered the 10L figuring even though I'm 5'4", I'd be in 4" heels and it would be fine. Nope. Even w heels on the dress was way too long - I was scared I'd punch a hole through it with my stiletto by simply walking. If I needed to I could have worn it as it's true to size and fit otherwise, but I would have had to carry around a lot of extra material all night. I'd love to order this again in the 10R to actually wear.

Beautiful But Runs Very Small
I absolutely loved this dress when I unpacked it. The color and material is amazing!! I would have normally ordered a 10R but only the 10P was available and I figured the slightly shorter length would be fine since I'm only 5'4". This dress runs VERY small, I think I would have needed two sizes up for it to actually fit around my back. Luckily, I was able to get another gown overnighted which I was very pleased with. I plan to try ordering this again in the future - but sizing WAYYYY up!!

Beautiful & Expensive-Looking Gown for Black Tie Event
I received so many compliments and I felt great! I ordered this as a last minute alternate and only one size up from my typical size was still available. It was slightly big but no one but myself could tell. The straps are adjustable and the dress itself is forgiving (a win for a girl with curves), so a little extra space was actually quite comfortable and hardly noticeable. This dress was easy to dance in. It looks more regal IRL than on the model.

Funky + Unique; Very Short
This dress was really fun and the 46 fit well. 44 was way too small. It does not hug your stomach which was really important to me. The chest was a little large but using fashion tape I stuck the top to my strapless bra and it worked just fine. My main watch out with the dress is it's really short. If you bend over you will 100% flash someone haha. I wore full coverage underwear, just in case!

Absolutely Incredible Dress!! I Felt So Beautiful In It.
I fell in love with this dress the minute I put it on. It's both incredibly elegant & wildly sexy. I wore it for a black tie wedding & spun all night bc the skirt twirls beautifully. Ladies, if you're not super thin and don't want a dress that hugs your stomach, this is perfect. It's backless & I have large boobs. A combo of boob tape to hold up my breasts & fashion tape to keep the thick shoulder straps in place over the boob tape did the trick. Can not stress more how much I loved this dress.

Loved! Sexy + Classy for NYE. Excellent Customer Service by RTR.
Day of delivery RTR said this dress was no longer available in my size (8), but they were sending the backup (6) and a similar dress. I could also select any dress to be overnighted to me. But as you can imagine, not much was left the night before NYE. I was bummed. BUT the 6 in my original choice was PERFECT! The spare was gorg too. I was thrilled to wear my original choice. 100% sequins. Color is stunning! Bc it's not a mini & doesn't show cleavage, it's both classy and sexy. I felt beautiful.

Absolutely turnkey rental process and a stunning dress
Rented this for a friend's birthday. The dress looked exactly like the picture and I received a lot of compliments. I'm a 36DD and the dress actually flattened me out a bit because it was a heavy material and very fitted. I rented an 8 and a 10. Both fit but because the dress was so fitted, the 10 was way more flattering on my stomach and hips. I recommend this dress and RTR! :)
