Loved it!
I really liked this rental! I wore it to a spring desert wedding and the vibe was perfect. It felt great, moved well, and wasn't too hot/felt lightweight. Both the small and the medium somehow fit me. I went with the small but could have done either. I used double-sided tape on the side without a strap just based on others recommendations. No problem with slipping for me. I'm pretty short but I was able to get away with flats with it being a little long.

Lots of compliments
I wore this to an older family member's wedding and received a TON of compliments. The fit felt flattering. The back added a nice detail while still being pretty modest. I wanted to keep it. I wore a regular bra I converted to halter style. It showed a little at the bottom in the back, I probably could have just taped it an inch lower but I didn't bother.

I loved this dress!
The arms were super fun to dance with. The cinch back added for some fun flair and easy fit. I ended up wearing shape wear with it just to make things a little smoother. There is a small seam around the waist area that makes it not sit perfectly smooth, but it's not a huge deal.

Perfect dress for family pictures!
I rented this dress for professional family photos. Photographed great! My daughter was 4 months at the time so it sufficiently hid the problem areas. I couldn't raise my arms above my head (the fabric and bust band had no stretch) but that didn't matter for this purpose.

Great color
This dress was okay for me. The color was great but it fit weird. I think it was too big in the waist and hips.

Family Photo Shoot
I ordered this for a family photo shoot. It just did not do anything for me. The fabric was thick and somehow still clung in all the wrong places. I could see it being a good fit for someone slender or, paradoxically, someone pregnant.

Great formal dress
Wore this for a formal event. Originally ordered the red dress but it came with a broken zipper. RTR came in clutch by mailing this one to my hotel. It fit and felt great. The fabric was heavy enough to hide all lumps. I was aiming for Michelle Obama arms!

Great NYE dress!
I LOVED this dress. Wore it for a NYE party and received many compliments all night. Was able to get both the S and M on, but the M was a much better fit. I wore it sans bra or spanx and the fabric was thick enough to hold everything in. It was sexy but not too revealing. The low back looked great. Very flattering on an athletic build.

Perfect dress for my engagement party!
I loved this dress, did not want to return it! I ordered the 2 and the 4 based on others' reviews. I had been worried because the 6 was not available for my event. I tried on the 4 and didn't even bother with the 2. It was perfect for my engagement party, flattering and pretty - lots of compliments! It was comfortable and conservative enough, wasn't constantly tugging or worrying I was flashing people. Other complained that it didn't have a lot of flexibility in the fabric, which is true, but I felt like it wasn't very restricting. If I were to wear it again, I'd wear spanx. Sometimes it looks like I have a bit of a belly in the pictures. Which, IMO I do, so, take that as you want but the way the fabric lays you might want to consider it.

Such a fun dress for a summer formal wedding!
I absolutely loved this dress! I was worried about the fit, and ordered the 4R and 2P based on others' reviews and the size chart. The 4R fit like a glove through the bodice, although it was a little long even with heels. I didn't even try on the 2P but it fit my friend perfectly and she joked about crashing the wedding in the same dress as me. Someone else at the same wedding wore the same dress but in green, but the two of us and our dates were the only ones to notice (we think!).
