Love this dress!
I am actually wearing this dress as I am writing this review. It is adorable and chic. Paired it with black tights and black ankle booties. I have gotten so many compliments on it.

Super cute dress but it was cut very small. I could not wear it.
Adorable dress, but it was cut way too small and was too short for work even with tights. Had to send it back.

Love the color. It had a very stretchy fit and did ride up a bit when walking. Gorgeous dress in photos. It was a bit sexier than I expected. I wore the size P

Gorgeous, comfortable dress. Great night out with some of my favorite ladies.
I wore this dress to a bachelorette party in Old Town Alexandria. It was comfortable and beautiful for dinner and bar-hopping with a bunch of girlfriends. I was a little dissappointed when I received the dress. As another reviewer mentioned, I am guessing due to improper dry-cleaning, the lining was hanging out the bottom of the dress. This was a unacceptable to me, as I do not feel I should have to "rig" a designer dress that I am renting, and I nearly returned the dress without wearing it. I really had my heart set on wearing it and on a hope and a prayer, I ironed it with a very low setting. This relaxed the fibers and returned the outer sheath to its original length. I received numerous compliments. The dress is stunning and I would highly recommend renting it. It can be either dressed up or down. I paired it with gold wedges and a gold mini-cluth to dress it down a little for the evening. The only reason I did not give this dress 5 stars was because of the way the dress arrived with the lining hanging out.

Such an adorable bracelet. I just wish the magnets had been strong enough to keep it clasped together.
I received this as my mystery bling. The bracelet was adorable, but I was nervous to wear it for the entire evening. The clasp is magnetic and the magnets were not strong enough to keep the bracelet closed. The bracelet kept popping open, so after cocktail hour and dinner, I put it in my purse. We were doing some bar-hopping after dinner and I was too scared I was going to lose it. I was disappointed that It was not secure enough to wear for for the entire evening.

Gorgeous dress. I felt like a Grecian Goddess!
I wore this elegant dress to an "island casual" wedding reception. The dress was beautiful and photographs amazing. I paired the dress with gold snake sandals to make it a bit more casual. Although the dress was gorgeous, I would not say it was an effortless and comfortable dress to wear. Undergarments were a bit of a challenge. The dress shows every line, lump, bulge, etc. so any type of panty line would have been visible. I ended up wearing bike short style underwear. These were seamless and the dress looked much smoother with something under it. The dress is backless, so the shorts could not be high wasted. I wore petals up top for coverage. The chain was very heavy and took some getting used to. The silk was soft, but did wrinkle easily. I sprayed the dress down with wrinkle release prior to wearing.

Loved every second!
I wore this dress to an outdoor evening charity event. The dress was sexy, fun, yet sophisticated. I typically wear a size 2, but went up a size in this dress. I paired with gold heels and a gold clutch. The dress was stretchy and did ride up a little bit when walking, even with the larger size. I went out dancing after the event, simply because I was not ready to put the dress to bed!

This dress was absolutely perfect for a fun-filled Spring evening with friends. I tend to see the same people at many different functions, so I always like to wear something "new". RTR made it so easy, I may never buy a dress again!
I absolutely loved wearing this dress! I wored it to a casual-elegant hospital fund-raiser. This dress was vibrant and fun, but still conservative enough for the party. I was concerned that the small would be a little big. I am typically a size 2 and the XS was not available. The dress fit perfectly across the bustline. The body of the size S was a little loose on me, like a sheeth dress, but for this event, it made it a tad bit more conservative. I am 5'3 and it hit me a good two inches above the knee.
