Great dress, but too small and too short.
Based on reviews I ordered the 2R with a 0R as backup. I knew based on reviews the 4R would be too big. The dress looked amazing on me but I wasn't breathing and I was standing barefoot. If you are taller than 5'4 or want to wear heels you will need the Long. I am a petite person with a small hourglass waist but whenever I would breath in, my skin would squeeze out the cutouts...not a good look. It might have been okay because my event was a charity gallery event so we would be standing or walking the whole time, BUT we do a formal dinner after and I couldn't sit without the same thing happening even worse with the cut outs (and I would never wear flats in a formal gown). Because the 2R fit me perfectly in the bust and hips I knew no other size would work. RTR offered to overnight me another dress but by the time I got home from work to try it on and contact them I only had 45 minutes to find a dress that I liked, that had my size and was available for the next day. I had to keep emailing RTR with options and nothing was available so I ended up buying one and I was so happy because I saw 2 other women in this dress at my event and all the other RTR dresses I liked were there too.

Didn't wear it, but it has great potential
I had really high hopes for this dress but it didn't work out. The only size available was the 40R and I think I'm a 38. I rented it anyways because some designers run small and since there were no reviews I had nothing to go on. The dress has really great potential as the skirt is beautiful and would be so flattering on someone who fit the dress better. Top is white and a little boxy. Some girls can pull that look off, some can't. I would be willing to try renting again if they ever get my size in this.

Great dress for my event
This dress was so pretty! Great color. I'm a blonde and never wear red so I was nervous that the color would look cheap. It did not. I would definitely recommend to a first timer if they are nervous about sizing. It is a simple dress but looked great in photos and how do you not get attention wearing red!? Bodice is very structured and the skirt just hangs on you in a really beautiful way. I could see this being best fit for girls who are a B-C cup. Being so structured a flat chested woman would need a serious push up bra to fill the space and a large chested woman wouldn't have any stretch to work with.

Great dress, elegant and flattering!
Ordered the 36R and 38R for backup. The day before my dress was supposed to be delivered RTR contacted me saying that the 36 that was going to be sent to me had come back to them damaged beyond repair. They were so nice and the woman helping me emailed and called me multiple times throughout the day to try and help me pick out another dress (for no extra-charge). I didn't end up finding anything I wanted so I decided to risk it and had them send the 38 anyways. Lucky for me it fit like a glove! the 36 actually would have been way too tight on my bust. The dress fit me perfectly, flows well when walking, flatters the curves, photographs well, and I was the only one at the event with it on! It is a simple dress but has just the right amount of modest sexiness and elegance that you can still be a show stopper without being too out there in a bold color or wild print. I saw that some girls felt the fabric looked cheap but for what it cost to rent, I was pretty impressed. It didn't look cheap on or in photos to me.
