VERY short...but gorgeous!
Like other reviewers, I need to emphasize just how *short* this dress is: in the back it hit right under my butt. But (!) I wore short bike shorts underneath and felt perfectly comfortable/confident. Also the skirt is pretty slender so if you're a gym gal like me with muscular thighs, be careful when you sit down cuz she rides! Also I am smaller on top than on bottom so in order for the medium to fit my lower half, I had to use boob tape/sticky bra. Love the color/satin material though so all the trouble was worth it! I felt great.

Not the greatest
I wanted to love this dress. I did end up wearing it, but only because I had no other options. The dress was VERY thin even though the material was nice. I wanted to wear a sticky bra with it but it kept showing because the neck was all wrinkly and didn’t fit right even though I ironed it. So I had to go braless which I’m not a fan of. Maybe girls with a bigger chest could fill out the top better but I was self-conscious all day. Not the best experience. However, it was the perfect color/print for an outdoor fall wedding, and I did love the back.

Nope
I was so excited to wear this. But the strap was basically a shoe string, plus it was frayed! I didn’t trust it at all. And the fit was super weird. I’m smaller on top than on the bottom so it was way too big in the chest and snug on my hips/booty. 👎🏼

Sexy LBD
At first I wasn't crazy about the dress. It kind of bunched up and I wasn't sure I liked it. But! It was still better than anything in my closet, so I decided to wear it and I'm glad I gave it a chance. Got so many compliments and my husband's eyes about popped out of his head ;) It was snug but stretchy and fit like a glove. I wore my usual size, a small. I have an athletic build with broad shoulders, small breasts & small waist and a booty with somewhat thicker thighs.

gorgeous dress
It fit perfectly and had so many cute details that made it pop. Love the ruffles and the mesh cutouts. The little tie in the back was an extra-cute touch. I wore a strapless bra with it which kind of showed due to the mesh but since my bra was black it just looked like part of the dress. Wish I could have kept it! :)

A Standout Dress!
Body-hugging, sexy stunner! LOVED the colors. I never wear this color combo and I'm so glad I took a chance on this dress! It definitely stood out among the LBDs at the NYE party. Wish I had an excuse to rent it again! :)

Perfect date dress!
I usually wear either a 4 or 6. However, the 6 wasn't available so my backup size was a 2—which normally would be laughable—but good thing I had it! The 4 was baggy in the stomach area so I went down to a 2. It was a little snug around the rib cage but other than that fit perfectly. Really accented my waist and had a sexy, formfitting look.

Perfect for NYE
Sorry I didn't get a good picture of it, but it was super cute and perfect for a date night. I wore it for a NYE dinner and it was very flattering and just the right amount of dressy for what we did. I paired it with form-fitting black pants and felt very sassy. :)

So many compliments!
Like the other reviewers said, the waist is VERY snug. The small was a sexier fit but no way could I have survived the night without the waist cutting me in half. But the medium worked, and even though the waist was still snug, it was tolerable. And everyone loved it! So that helped. :)

Perfect for a winter wedding
Was surprised the Small fit me, as most body-con dresses are too tight on me. But this fit perfectly in all the right places! I had to tug it down a lot, but it didn't ruin my night or anything. The material was kind of hot, so I wouldn't recommend it for summer. Loved the pattern! Overall I was quite pleased.

Eh.
It was okay. The color was perfect, since the wedding was the day before Valentine's Day. The quality was not the greatest; it was kind of ill-fitting in the waist. It just didn't seem very "designer." More like an off-the-rack dress from Express or something.

So many compliments!
Jaw-dropping dress. Had complete strangers stopping me to gush over the dress. This fits VERY snug, especially the bottom half (for me, anyway!) Since I'm smaller on top, I had to use double-sided tape to keep it from gapping. But it was still fabulous! Plus, RTR sent it to me after the dress I originally rented was returned damaged. I <3 RTR!!

This dress was GORGEOUS. The size 42 fit perfectly; it flattered my figure and highlighted all my best features. Loved the colors, loved the silky material, LOVED it. So sad I had to send it back!

Material is really thick!
I rented this in a Small, with no back-up size as the Medium wasn't available. The material is very thick and would have been too hot for an outdoor August party, even if it had fit. I didn't end up wearing it because it was all bunched in the middle and just didn't fit right. Luckily I had rented a back-up dress!

The perfect party dress!
I wore this dress to my stepson's high school graduation party. I rented size 42 and 44 and ended up wearing the 42. It couldn't have fit any better! It was stylish and sexy (but not TOO sexy, haha) and I received many compliments. I loved the color scheme as well. It was a weeee bit tight in the shoulders/cap sleeves, but I have broad shoulders so I am used to that. Loved it!!

Perfect for a winter evening wedding!
Loved the dress. I ordered a 6 & 8 because most of the reviews said it fit small, especially in the hips. It was snug but not uncomfortable. I was a little worried I'd bust the seams because there's no stretch and had to be careful when I sat down. The top was a little loose, which was concerning but not surprising. I wear a 32B and am very narrow through the ribs. So my dresses are always big on top and small on the bottom! Luckily I had double sided tape so my dress stayed in place :) Very classy and sexy dress.

Creme de la Creme Dress

Size Worn: 6
Usual Size: 4

Very sexy and a unique color!
I got this in a S and a M. The S wouldn't even go over my knees and the medium was super-snug but still wearable. Thank God it was stretchy because otherwise I would have been hobbling around all night looking like my knees were glued together! But it smoothed out everything and looked amazing. Once I had a few drinks I didn't notice how tight it was! :) If I ever rent from this designer again I'm definitely going up a size just to see if the Large is more comfortable. But I got tons of compliments and felt like a goddess all night.

Gorgeous color & fit perfectly!
The medium was perfect; couldn't ask for a better fit. Got tons of compliments from complete strangers ("Love your dress!" from the ladies and "Day-ummm!" from the guys;) Gorgeous, gorgeous color. Paired it with a turquoise/green necklace and leopard heels. So sad when I had to take it off for the night—wish I could keep it!

Beautiful dress;just didn't fit.
I normally wear a 4, but this dress was very big around my rib cage and falling off my shoulders. It fit through the hips pretty snug, so no way could I have gone down a smaller size (plus my back-up size was a 6!) I ended up returning it, unworn. Booooo.

Such a cute, sexy dress and I got soooo many compliments!
Since a lot of the reviews said this dress runs a little big, I ordered my regular size (4) and the next size down. I ended up wearing the 4; it fit just right, maybe even a teensy bit snug. But I like my dresses a little slinky so that was okay with me! I have a booty, so it was a little shorter in the back, but I'm used to that. Was VERY short when I sat down, but the party was dark so no one saw anything, haha. Loved it, and will definitely rent in the future. In fact, I may never buy a special-occasion dress again!
