Very Comfortable for 32 Weeks
This is my first pregnancy and I was just looking to be comfortable and elegant for a late November wedding in Chicago. This dress was great, but I wish I would have gotten the XS. The S worked, but I was pulling it up a lot. For reference, I am currently 32 weeks pregnant, 157 lbs, 34B. The top is stretchy, so I definitely could have gone down a size. Overall very happy with my choice, however!

I absolutely love this dress. I wish I could keep it! It was perfect for Easter and so comfortable. It has pockets and is not super heavy. Perfect for spring.

Great color
I got a lot of compliments on this dress. It definitely runs on the larger side. I ended up wearing the XS. I love that it has pockets. It wasn’t the best fit for my body type, but I enjoyed it nonetheless! Only remove one star for that reason.

I liked this dress, but didn't love it. I wore my hair down, so it looked just like a normal black dress. If I got this again, I would make sure to do an updo.

Love this dress. I usually wear a 2 in Lilly, but if I was to buy this I would have gotten a 4 for some more room in the chest. I think this runs a little small compared to my other Lilly dresses.

I LOVE THIS DRESS. I would buy it if I could. I have a small waist and large hips/butt, and this just did all the right things for me. It is super light weight. Highly recommend!

Compliments all night
I wore this dress for a birthday party. I wanted to wear something festive and I got a lot of compliments! The bottom layer was separating from the top layer in some places, but was not noticeable at this point. I also did not like the sleeve ends so I rolled them it to make them shorter. I would rent again!

Beautiful green!
I got SO many compliments on this dress. I loved it! The sizing is SMALL. 8 is the size I usually wear in bridesmaid/bridal sizing so think that when you're renting. Material is thick. My top half is smaller than my bottom, so it was a little loose on the top for me but it didn't bother me all that much. Overall great night!

I received this dress as a backup after the original dress I ordered had a shipping issue. I ended up not wearing this for the wedding, but wore it for church the next day. The waist runs small in my opinion while the bust area is larger. I think this dress would be great for a hourglass figure.

Amazing dress!
I ADORE this dress. There were some issues with my order, so I only got the size 2 delivered. It fit, but I would have like to try the 4 just for comfort sake. The zipper did stick a bit where the pocket of the dress was sewn in. I got so many compliments on this dress. I am considering buying!! I did not wear a bra, just petals. Love it!!

I really loved this dress but it ran small for my body type. I could have worn an 8, which is more true to my dress size in bridal/bridesmaid dresses. If I ordered this again, I'd order under my bridal size!

I wore this dress to a black tie optional wedding. I would have liked to try on the 4, but only ordered 0 and 2. It was a little long with my heels, but not enough to notice. I received a.l lot of compliments! I didn't have issues with the dress falling down, but I might have had I sized up.

This dress was great. In my opinion it ran small, so I am glad I got a medium as my backup size. I usually get an x-small as my backup. Definitely would recommend this dress.

I really liked this dress. It was similar to another one I had rented previously- beautiful dress, but not great for my body type. I have a small waist and wide hips. This dress fell pretty straight. I would have preferred the midsection of the size 2 and the bottom of the size 4. I still received so many compliments and had a great time. Length was not as issue for my height as other have mentioned.

Great dress for outdoor wedding!
This dress is adorable, however I would not rent I again due to how it fit my body type. I have wide hips and a narrow waist, so the way it fell on me could be unflattering if I wasn't constantly readjusting. I chose the 0 because it was smaller around my waist. It was VERY tight around my hips and rearend. I had to buy special undergarments so the dress would lay better. I got so many compliments and it was a fun dress to wear. This dress would be ideal for someone with a more straight body type!

My aunt wore this dress. It was beautiful, but the top portion of the dress almost seemed stretched out. The grippy plastic that helps keep strapless dresses up kept folding over and showing. She loved the dress regardless and is renting it again for a white tie event! This was her backup dress after her first was damaged. We're glad it worked out!

Compliments all night!
This was my backup dress after my first choice was returned damaged. I couldn't have been happier with the way it turned out though! I ordered a 2R and a 4R. I usually am a 0 or 2, but I wore the 4 for this dress. The stitching for the 2 was tight around the waist. I am 5'4 and wore about 3 inch heels which was perfect. I received so many compliments and could not have been happier with this rental. Thanks RTR!

I loved this dress! I don't have it straightened in the picture, (embarrassing!) but the pattern was beautiful. I got so many compliments. Make sure you out this dress over your head rather than stepping into it. It does not stretch whatsoever. I wore the 0 and didn't even try on the 2. It was a little tight around my hips but the top of the 2 would have been to large. I didn't find the material to think for a July day in St. Louis. I highly recommend this dress!

Dress it up or down!
My mom and I both wore this during the rental period. I wore it more casually at a bar, with a crop top and jean shorts. My mom paired it with a dress she rented and wore it to a wedding. We wish we owned this necklace! It looks very expensive and was the perfect addition to our outfits. It does take a little effort to get it to lay correctly when you put it on, but once it is set it looks picture perfect.

Getting RTR PRO was the best decision. I have already saved so much money from upgrading to pro. If you rent a dress at least twice a year, i would recommend getting pro!

Light Weight
This necklace was really cute, but I did not end up wearing it. The dress I wanted to wear the necklace with had to much going on already. I was expecting it to be a little heavier - the triangles are not solid, they are hollowed out. To me, this made it seem rather fragile. If you are someone who wouldn't like a lot of weight around your neck, this would be perfect for you. I don't mind the weight and was kinda expecting it to be heavier so that is why I gave it a 4. Still very cute!

Perfect for Spring
As others have said, it is quite short. I would not recommend this dress for an event that requires dancing. I wore it to my brother's high school outdoor graduation and it was perfect. It is heavier that some other dresses, so if it is over 75 degrees, you might be uncomfortable. I would have preferred to wear the 0 because it fit me on top better, but the length was not appropriate. The sleeves are not forgiving either so if you have muscular arms, I would size up or avoid this dress. I belted the dress to make up for the extra room for going up a size. Perfect for my event but definitely wouldn't want to wear it all day!

It was perfect for Carolina Cup in Camden, SC. It was easy to move in and the perfect length.
Do not worry about the eyelet back! I wore a nude strapless bra and you could not tell at all through the back. I have short legs and a long torso but he length was perfect on me.
