Beautiful dress!
My boyfriend was in love with this dress. We went to a charity event and I thought I picked a pretty conservative look but it was also very flattering. The keyhole cutout was a sexier touch than what I was expecting from the pictures. I'd wear it again for sure, the only thing that makes it 4 stars instead of 5 is I felt like it made my hips look bigger than normal, especially from the back.

Great choice for a summer wedding
The material is flattering, forgiving, and breezy. The length is very conservative but it the neckline is super sexy if you have a larger bust. The V-shape was a little too low and showed my strapless bra underneath so I used teardrop shaped pasties instead (also from RTR) to give some lift. This dress is great for anyone looking for a classy-yet-sexy look.

Flattering and forgiving dress
I wore this dress to an office holiday party. The material is pretty stretchy and the ruching across the stomach makes this dress very forgiving for those self-conscious about their waistline. The neckline was cut just right so that it could either be tasteful or revealing, depending on your bra. I normally wear a medium but a small fit just right. I got a lot of compliments - would definitely recommend!

Diving In Deep Dress

Didn't fit
I normally wear a size 6, but also got the 8 as a backup. Even the 8 was too small to zip over my bust which was a little surprising since I'm only a C cup. Definitely recommend ordering up. Even if it had fit, I would have been disappointed though because the sequins and detailing on the front of the dress looked worn/broken in.

Sparkle in the Sky Dress

A stand-out dress!
The color of this dress really pops! It's very vibrant but not in a tacky neon way. My only complaint would be that the fit of the draping around the stomach was a little odd, but the fabric was forgiving enough that it didn't look bad. The slit on the leg was also more to the side so depending on which way I was facing the dress either looked very sexy or very conservative. Overall, I got enough compliments I'd rent it again.

I Object Dress
Moschino
Size Worn: 42
Usual Size: 6
Height: 5' 5"

Bust: 36C
Wore this to a bachelorette party where we toured a few vinyards - very casual chic!
The top half of the dress has a lace overlay - it looked very nice with good posture but I had to be careful not to slouch or else it rolled up funny. I wore this with flats and it was the perfect length. The material on the bottom of the dress is very airy, making it comfortable all day even in the summer heat. The side of the halter did cut into my shoulder at times which wasn't the most flattering but overall I still liked it and received a lot of compliments.

Easy to transition from day-night, flattering fit
I wore this dress to a daytime graduation and to the after parties later that evening. It worked great in both settings. I have broad shoulders and had difficulty getting in/out of the dress, but once it was on it fit like a glove and I received tons of compliments. A flattering cut and flattering color!
