Lovely dress but be careful with fit/size
This dress is beautiful, photographs well, and isn't too heavy. It's modest and elegant without feeling frumpy. I received tons of compliments. However, as a petite woman, the length was perfect for me with heels but the fit up top was not. The back zipper bubbled and the front didn't lay flat either. There's no stretch so raising your arms above shoulder height is uncomfortable. There's no built-in boning or cups, so a strapless bra was a must for me. Overall, still happy with the rental!

Felt ready for the red carpet!
I rented this dress for a barristers' ball. The color and fabric were great. I did not have to wear a bra with it. It was the perfect length with my 1.5" heels (I'm 5'2"). The ruching was flattering on my mom tummy. I received a ton of compliments and felt very glamorous in it!

Very pretty but has issues
The dress was very tight, so I didn't (well, couldn't, really) wear a bra but it was tight enough that I had some support even though it didn't have cups. The sash is sewn on which is unfortunate because I wanted to switch it out for something with sparkle. I love the color and how the fabric flowed. It was ok length-wise with 2 inch heels.

Fly-ass coat!
My friend posted as a joke about her wedding guests wearing "fly-ass coats." So of course I went to RTR to find one and this was perfect!! It was a great color, felt super luxurious, and wasn't too bulky. The pockets were a bit far back and shallow to be useless but they didn't matter to me. I loved it!

Lovely but not petite
I loved the color, top fabric, and shape. But I'm only 5'2", so the hemline fell longer than I wanted and the side zipper didn't lay flat. I also wish the lining was a different fabric - it was a little thick. Overall a nice dress though. I wore a strapless bra and it didn't show at all.

Fantastic classic dress
The fabric and styling were fantastic. The 8 was a bit too long but the 6 was an ok length with my highest heels and it felt more supportive. I wore a strapless bra. I loved how it fit - I wanted a modest look and this dress came up pretty high under my arms, unlike some other one-shoulder dresses I've rented.

Nice dress but . . .
This dress is lovely but didn't look right without a bra. I should have tried a stick-on bra. I loved the hemline and detail on the bodice. It was comfortable all night.

Fantastic jumper!
This fit great and looked amazing. The detail hid my mom tummy. I was comfortable all night.

Eye-catching but . . .
This dress definitely grabs attention, but the unique back presents issues. I had to wear a stick-on bra because of the partly-open back and neckline. I tried the 8 and the 6, and neither one lay right in the back - not sure if it's because I have a short torso or broad shoulders or what. I wore my hair down to hide it. I liked how it looked from the front though! I did not have any trouble with rubbing under my arms.

Unique, comfortable gown!
This dress was perfect for a black tie gala. It was whimsical but formal. Super comfortable. I'm glad I read reviews and bought a sparkle belt and hair clip to dress it up even more. The tulle came out of the bag perfect, I didn't have to steam or iron it.

Lovely but busty ladies beware!
The fabric, color, and pockets were fantastic. I am 5'2" and wore 2.5 inch heels and the regular was still a bit too long. The real issue for me was the chest. I couldn't wear a strapless bra with it and it isn't stretchy or otherwise supportive in the chest. It was also difficult to zip, my husband had to do it. It is meant to be tight, I'm sure, and it was comfortable, but be careful if you'll be getting ready alone!

So- so
These were much bigger and heavier than I expected. Very costume-y. I wore them because I wore my hair down, but wish I'd picked something more delicate.

Hottest dress I've ever worn!
This dress was amazing. More comfortable than I expected, very flattering, pictures don't do it justice. The only issue I had was the middle isn't elastic so it was difficult to maintain the bloused effect that the model has. But it was gorgeous nonetheless and I hope to buy it when RTR cycles it out of inventory!

Showstopper
This dress was amazing. I received so many compliments. It was fantastic for my hourglass figure, comfortable and flattering. The petite was actually a bit too short, the regular was great with small heels and would have been perfect with a bit taller of a heel. Thank you RTR!!

Not what I expected
This bracelet was dainty but still kind of big on my wrist.
