flattering silhouette
RTR has this saloni silhouette in a few different prints. this print was the only one available for my event, and wasn't my favorite but the dress feels so good on that it worked anyway. it looks best when it fits snugly, i tried on the 8 and it had more room but didn't look as good honestly. the material and cut is so comfortable that even with a snug fit, it's still comfortable. it should be noted that there is not any stretch though so with saloni you just need to find your right size. mine is a 6.

comfortable, flattering dress.
sized up one size, plan on wearing it for a 50th anniversary celebration. i feel like reformation is best for those not so well endowed, i liked the way this looked with a bralette underneath rather than a bra that added "lift" - the wrap was more comfortable that way. definitely need to wear heels with Regular at 5'3", Petite wasn't available. contemplating buying.

Great dancing dress
This is a very fun dress, Fit a little snug around waist and hips for this particular occasion. ultimately went with something a bit more forgiving on the belly area. :) this is a flattering though and classy sexy. will rent again maybe in a size up although don't know if it would be as flattering on the curves.

Can I keep
I've thrown this on every couple of days since I got it. At home, running errands, and to a child's birthday party. Planning to wear it on a short trip to Napa valley later this week. Perfect for hot weather. Must rent. Fit is large, am wearing a 0 in this dress, I'm usually a SM or medium if fits small, am size 6 in Saloni. I could wear a 1 and still be ok, I think the sleeves wouldn't be snug that way. Either way, I will rent again!

nice dress
didn't end up wearing it, but only because another dress fit the occasion better. fit great, usually wear a 6 in saloni. slightly long for me, but otherwise fit was great, very figure flattering. you will need apparel tape, deep plunge. sexy with the slit! will rent again for the right occasion!

great coat
loved this coat so much, i considered buying it. i will definitely be renting it again. i got a size 2 only because that's what was available and it still fit. it's oversize for sure but it worked. i seriously wore it most every day until i had to return it. many, many compliments. perfect neutral. not super warm, but perfect for "california" cold - like wearing a snuggly blanket.

Figure Flattering, but snug arms
I rented this in a 4 at the beginning of June, the fit was perfect. Sadly, no photo. I got it for this weekend in a size 6 because that's all that was available, and the bodice / waist was slightly looser but still wearable-the sleeves were snug though! Don't remember the sleeves in the 4 being snug at all so it's a bit weird. Anyway, didn't end up wearing because it felt just "ok" and I remembered it being "wow".

Didn't fit quite right
Hmmm, this should have worked - maybe in one size up? Although I had read that Mara Hoffman runs large, I got my regular size in this dress. I think it's supposed to be more drapey and it didn't quite "hang" on me enough - was a little snug in the hips. I might have been able to work it out as the fabric stretches a bit, but the shoulder fit awkwardly and just didn't look right. Oh well. Didn't wear.

Large
Didn't wear because we didn't have any days cold enough, but also because the fit was kinda blah on me. Am usually a 4 in DL, and felt like I was swimming in it. Couldn't get the collar to lay right. It just sat in my closet for about a week. Sigh.

Functional, better than basic
Didn't notice the stripes were Rasta colors. Cute, trendy, I kept it pretty casual with some high waisted vintage wash jeans. I guess you could dress it up with some nicer pants. Slightly itchy, I was ready to it take off at end of the day but it is a flattering, slimming fit. Can't help but think I look like my mom in the early nineties, never dreamed turtlenecks would come back!

Cool sleeve detail keeps it from being too basic.

Flattering Fit!
I got the 4 and the 6 in this dress and am keeping the 4. Style is very flattering and would say it runs true to size and is very forgiving with the ruching and the stretch. The 4 fit me slightly better, hugging. Renting for a red carpet event though and not sure it will be "special" enough but it's such a flattering fit! im 5.3 and it hits at mid ankle so I might go with another dress that is longer and more appropriate for the occasion. The husband loves it.
