Simple but elegant
I bought this dress and have worn it to 2 black tie optional weddings so far with tons of received compliments. The fabrics hangs well, with the draped straps and low back (falls to waist level for me) composing beautifully. However, the straps are very difficult and fall a lot, and as a bustier woman, I have to wear a lot of tape to keep everything in place as there is 0 support.

Almost perfect
Very cute, received a lot of compliments. I just wish it were slightly bigger, with an option for a shoulder strap. I was able to squeeze an iphone, lipstick tube, and credit card case just barely with a lot of effort. Also, the back has a bold black "STAUD" in beading, which really diminished the sophistication of the bag.

Way too big and unflattering
I’m solidly a size 8 but I’m not sure even a 6 would’ve fit. It was too big to even try to pin it. I sent it back before my event and wore something else.

Perfect dress
This dress is amazing. I have broad shoulders/ribcage and a large chest, so it's difficult to find clothes that fit me really well, but I felt incredible in this dress. Lightweight but well-made, it also has adjustable straps and hugs the body beautifully. I would love to buy this dress if it becomes available.

Cartoonish
Color is very different in person. Cartoonishly blue and large, was too embarrassed to wear it.

Simple but sweet summer dress
Wore this for a Sunday evening wedding in Brooklyn, casualish cocktail dress code. Thin, no lining at all, but it drapes beautifully and looks much better in the sun than I expected. It can be dressed down or up, and feels very effortless on.

Small summer outdoor wedding on a lake in the countryside.
This was my first RTR experience, and I'll definitely be renting again after this dress. My main concern when looking for dresses is my bust size, and this was great despite my chest and wider ribcage. I got the 6 and 8 and wore the 6, even without a bra! I danced all afternoon and had no problem with them. The hem hit a couple inches above my knee. The material was a little heavy for the summer, but it allowed good structure for keeping everything in. Even the lace on top was well constructed. I think it could be dressed up for more formal events as well.

Simple with details to give it an edge.
Big enough to fit phone, small wallet, makeup, basically anything. It was simple enough to not grab too much attention but edgy enough to give an accent to a simple outfit. I got a lot of compliments. I wish I could have held onto it longer because it would be great for other occasions as well.
