Showstopper!
This dress was a bit outside my comfort zone because of the cut but I felt great in it. I did use some tape and a safety pin to make sure it stayed up but was worried about it all night - had I just let the dress be I may have been better off.

Beautiful and comfortable!
I would usually wear an 8 or even a 10 in a dress like this that cinches around the rib cage but I was very comfortable in the 6 and had plenty of room to move. It was great for a spring wedding and I felt very pretty in it. I especially loved the small clips in the shoulders to hold the bra straps from falling out of the dress - genius!

So many compliments!
I loved this dress. The material seemed like it was going to be uncomfortable because of the raised lace patterns but it definitely wasn't. I felt comfortable in it and got so many compliments. Would definitely rent again for a wedding or party!

I wore this dress for my rehearsal dinner and LOVED it. It was very comfortable and I felt so beautiful in it. I would buy this dress in a heartbeat.

Quietly elegant
I usually wear a 6 in RTR dresses (because I mostly get shift dresses) but I needed the 8 on this one for the sleeves, like many others have said. I didn't feel great in the dress when I first put it on but got so many compliments and felt great at the actual event!

Perfect for my bridal shower!
This was the back up dress I got when the size I wanted in the original dress I ordered wasn't available. I didn't want to wear the "traditional" white to my bridal shower and this dress made the perfect statement and pop of color. It fit perfectly and as expected and I got so many compliments. I wish I didn't have to send it back. The 3/4 sleeves were great even for the summer because they're lace and let so much air in that I was still cool enough. I would rent again and again!

First RTR and won't be my last!
Like others have said I can see how the armpit holes might be a bit small but I'm small-chested so it didn't bother me. The color was perfect for the beach wedding we went to and it was so nice to be able to breathe all night due to the loose-fitting style but also look good. I wear a 10 in bridal but they didn't have a 10 available and boy am I glad. I got an 8 with a 6 as my back up size and I ended to wearing the 6. Overall I would love to actually buy this dress!
