Loved this dress! I wore it while 36 weeks pregnant to a wedding.
The material is not super formal, but the cut and the off-the-shoulder made it much dressier. Very flattering and comfortable, especially in a third trimester pregnancy - shows off the bump!

Beautiful dress for a black tie event!
I loved this dress! I ended up wearing the 0R and it fit perfectly. I was a little worried about the length because I'm short (5'2) and do not like to wear heels. Luckily, the 0 was short enough that I didn't need to wear heels and was comfortable all night! The boning in the front was very flattering, and this dress definitely hugs your curves! I felt really glamorous and was complimented throughout the night. Loved it!

Beautiful dress, fun color!
This was a really beautiful dress, and I loved the blue color. The fabric was definitely different than I expected. It seemed to look more satiny on the website, but it was a lot thicker and heavier. This was great because it was a fall wedding, so I didn't mind. As other reviewers have said, the straps were definitely way too long. If I hadn't safety pinned them in the back, I wouldn't have been able to wear the dress - the straps kept falling down, and it made the dress feel way bigger than it was. Otherwise, I loved the pockets and the skirt!

Fun and beautiful dress!
I wore this dress to a wedding, and I loved the lace overlay, especially around the neckline. An added bonus was that I am a bit smaller-busted, and this dress was really flattering in that area! I got tons of compliments, and it was pretty comfortable throughout the night. Definitely recommend!

Love, Love, Love this dress!!!
I am in love with this dress. I did not want to return it! The colors are beautiful and so flattering. The dress fit really well, and I loved the one-shoulder. I wore this to a rehearsal dinner and got compliments all night. I didn't think I would love the gold belt but it worked really well. It was also really comfortable and light.

Classy and classic beautiful lace dress!
I wore this for a Labor Day wedding and it was perfect! The lace was beautiful, and I liked the sleeves a lot. It bagged a little bit in the stomach, so I wonder if I should have gone one size down. This was a very classy and beautiful black dress.

Beautiful yellow dress!
I really loved this dress. The lace was gorgeous, and it fit pretty well. I rented the 4 and 2. I'm typically a 4, but the 2 fit much better. I loved the pockets, and I got compliments all night. I had bought a backless bra to go with this dress, but I did not end up needing it. The back does not go as far down as it appears in the photo. I will continue to be a loyal RTR customer! :)

Fun, pretty dress - got tons of compliments!
I ordered a 4, with the 2 for my backup size and ended up wearing the 2. They both fit, but the top was a little more snug in the 2, which made dancing more comfortable (not having to worry about constantly pulling the top up). I wore it to a November wedding and got tons of compliments! I love this dress style, where it's tight on top and flares out at the waist - very flattering and forgiving. I would totally wear this again!

Beautiful dress, but didn't fit right.
This was a lovely dress and I wish I had been able to wear it! I had rented two dresses for a wedding weekend and wound up wearing the other one. This was gorgeous, but just didn't flatter my figure so I didn't end up being able to wear it.

Gorgeous dress!
This is an absolutely gorgeous dress. This is definitely a dress that shows off your shape, so I felt like I needed to suck in quite a bit throughout the event. I also had to keep pulling it down while I was dancing. It is beautiful, but I didn't always feel totally comfortable, which may just mean it wasn't right for my body type.

Beautiful and fun dress! Got a lot of compliments!
I rented this as my second dress (which was discounted) for the weekend, and so I only ordered one size - an XS. It was just a tiny bit too snug, so I wish I had ordered a small. I don't think anyone noticed but me, but I kept tugging it down and adjusting it. Otherwise, I loved it! The design is so cool, and the fabric is light and flowly. I loved how the belt tied it all together. I would definitely rent again in a bigger size.
