Wore as a belt
I originally rented this necklace for a specific dress, but that dress became unavailable...but they sent me the necklace still. Because of the ribbon tie, I was able to wear this necklace as a belt on another dress. I think it looked fabulous as a belt!

Felt like a goddess
This dress is incredible! I ended up renting it after both sizes for the original dress rental were unavailable 2 days before shipment. Of course RTR customer service is awesome and I got to rent this dress for no additional fee :) I felt like a goddess wearing it. I rented it for a fall wedding and was unsure if the pattern would seem out of season...but I think it was fine and the dress is too gorgeous I didn't care. Hugged my curves nicely and is a little short in the front, but the overlying layer covers the back and sides enough to make you not feel like you're exposing too much. I had no fitting issues...it was snugger in the bottom where I have wider hips and butt, but the size felt appropriate and fitted my waist and chest proportions well. It was so much fun to dance in!! If I could afford to keep this dress in my personal closet than I would, I hated having to return it!!

Best Dressed List
I ended up wearing the 0P as the original size 2R request became unavailable days before the event due to damage :( So the tan lining underneath was definitely short on me 5'4" and sitting was centimeters from showing too much. But, the dress itself is gorgeous! The color is between a royal blue and navy. The lace in the chest area is very pretty and gives it a hint of classy-sexiness. I have a smaller chest, so the 0 fit well in that area - sticky bra or none is a must or it will show through. The fabric is light and comfortable to wear. Possibly my favorite rental so far (besides the size issue)!

Would have flashed people all night :(
When I ordered the dress there were no reviews or pictures available. The dress is very low cut, but I felt it ran slightly bigger on top. I have a smaller bust (32C) and small ribcage but the size 0 was still too big on top. I was disappointed because the dress was very cute in person - very pretty light pink color and nice material. I loved the open back! Unfortunately I couldn't risk wearing it to a wedding - would not have been appropriate!

Would love to wear again!
This dress was gorgeous! Bright and pretty color, and excellent quality fabric. The back plunges slightly so a low-back bra is needed. For me, any dress with pockets always gets extra points too! The top part of the dress did not cause any friction/rubbing on my arms as other people previously mentioned...and i spent the night dancing without any issues.

Comfortable and elegant
I wore this dress to a black tie optional wedding in early May. The one-shoulder top and waistline fit perfectly. I was worried the dress would be too long for me at 5'4" but the length was near perfect with 3 inch heels. The color was more of a deep green instead of a teal which I thought it looked like in previous pictures. The slit was barely noticeable while wearing it, although i would have liked it to stand out more. Overall good structure, quality, and lightweight material.

Top kept slipping down
This dress was so cute and I intended on wearing it to a Spring wedding. I ordered a size up (sizes 2&4) for my back-up based off of other reviews that it runs small...however I thought it ran big. I have a small rib cage and waist and usually have trouble keeping strapless dresses from falling down, I would recommend ordering a size down if this happens to you. The dress had boning and good structure, but the torso length seemed too short and i'm only 5'4". There were also multiple rips in the boning so I got scratched and stabbed by the wires while trying it on and wearing it briefly.

Compliments galore
I got compliments all night in this dress! Loved the flair tulle skirt and felt comfortable all night on the dance floor. I have an hourglass shape so this dress was very flattering on my body type. My only worry was deciding between the size 2 and 4. The size 2 fit my waistline much better, but the size 4 had that extra 1/2 inch of length to feel more comfortable dancing in. I went with the size 2 and it came close to being short while dancing, but it was fine all night. I also had a little difficulty with the lace neckline falling over on half of it, but for the most part it stayed put or I didn't notice.
