Lovely dress, but ...
... unfortunately it was a bit too tight in the chest for me. My boyfriend said, "It looks like you're wearing a sports bra." So yeah. I ended up not wearing it. But other than the bust, everything fit true to size. When wearing sequins, long sleeves will save you from getting a million tiny little cuts on your arms. so if you want to shine in comfort, I'd recommend this dress!

Beautiful dress ...
... unfortunately it was just a bit too snug around the waistband for me to wear. It was fine when I was standing straight up, but whenever I moved it wasn't the most flattering around my waist. That's on me ... not the dress :) For you lovely slender ladies out there, enjoy this one! It's gorgeous!

Perfect collared dress for the 3rd Annual Bow Tie Ball!
Super comfy dress. Perfect for fall/winter due to the heavy scuba material. Definitely recommend!

A little risque at my height, but so unique - couldn't pass up!
Wore this to our club's annual wine vault dinner. It was a little short, but not so short that I couldn't wear it. It was also a bit tight around the hips (I've got a decent amount of back), but some fashion tape held it in place for the most part. Got tons of compliments & had a great night in this dress. Definitely recommend.

Cute dress, but no room in chest
I'm a 36D, and absolutely could not breathe in this dress. The full skirt is gorgeous, though! A smaller chested woman will rock this one!

Felt glam & chill all at the same time
Love this dress -- will definitely rent again. I'm 5'10" with decent bust/hips and the long length was perfect without heels. Could have worn a small heel, but I'm not into them. The entire dress is crazy comfy & the sheer portion is super soft. I got a million compliments & felt incredibly confident all night. Nothing feels better! Reserve this dress now!

Such a fun dress!
Love the slightly-off-the-shoulder straps, and of course the pockets. The full skirt on this dress really makes it stand out. There's no crinoline ... the fabric is just thick enough to give it natural volume. Maybe not the best dress on a hot summer day due to the heavy fabric, but perfect for a gorgeous spring day. Highly recommend!

Amazing wine dinner
Didn't get any pics in the dress, but I'd agree with most other renters. I wore my usual size, and it was a bit snug. I felt like the dress was supposed to be oversized, so I wish I'd have ordered a size up. Oh well. Tall ladies will slay in this dress. It gave me legs for days! Great dress, high quality material, got lots of compliments!

This clutch perfectly balanced my outfit
I needed a clutch that would add color and texture to the marsala & orange look I was going for. This clutch provided both! The clutch I received had some signs of wear & tear, but was still in good shape. I prefer clutches that hold their shape and have magnetic closures, both of which this clutch has. Loved it. Will rent again. Wish I could buy it!

Felt elegant & powerful, even with butterflies in my hair :)
This jumpsuit is incredible. The long length was plenty long ... I might have been able to get away with wearing the regular, and I'm 5'10"! There was also plenty of room in the torso, which made it comfortable to wear all night. I got so many compliments throughout the night ... more than I've gotten with any of my other rentals! Definitely rent this jumpsuit. It's simple, but stunning.

Got a ton of compliments on this dress even though the event canceled!
The party I rented this for was canceled at the last minute, so my boyfriend & I made a date night of it out at our country club. Had a blast just hanging out with him & feeling pretty in this dress. Will likely rent again ... hopefully for an event that doesn't cancel!

Great dress, just not long enough for me.
I'm 5'10", and this dress was 1/2" off the floor when I was barefoot. I should have consulted a stylist before I ordered it, but it looked long & I reeeeaaaallly liked it. Oh well. It was my backup dress & luckily my primary dress worked perfectly!

Felt like a movie star in this dress!
Loved this dress! The way it flows as you walk looks incredible and makes you feel regal. The built in corset & bra are perfectly done ... no bra needed, and no slippage when you're workin' it on the dance floor (trust me!). I'm 5'10", so I always worry that the long size will still be too short. This one was perfect. Wore it with 3.5" heels & it was about 3/4" off the floor in the back. It photographs like a midi-skirt, but I love that look, so I didn't mind. Oh, and the pockets are perfect for stashing your phone so you don't miss a photo op all night!

Perfect statement earrings ... no necklace needed!
I wore a simple black & white dress, so wanted to punch things up with the accessories. Found some gold + pastel shoes, and these earrings immediately popped into my mind. They looked fantastic & were so light I could have worn them all day! Definitely recommend them!

Love DVF
Love this edgy clutch. Unfortunately, it' been rented quite a bit & it shows. I wouldn't try pairing this with a white dress, because it's more of an dark off-white now. Aside from the discoloration, it worked just fine. The claps was in good repair and the snake print looks great. Paired it with a green/turquoise dress for some contrast & loved the effect.

Pretty dress, but tight around the hips
To be fair, I'm a little larger in the hips so I usually have fit issues with the lower portion of dresses from RTR. That being said, everything looked fine from the front. When I turned around, however, the slip of the dress was sticking out in the back by at least 4 inches, similar to what other girls my size have said. Bummer because this dress is so cute, with or without the belt.

I felt so chic!
The dress is wonderful. I'm a little bigger in the hip area, so it was a little snug there, but that's the norm in my RTR experience. Wasn't noticeable or bad. The peplum gives a little extra coverage around the tummy area, so it was a perfect dinner date dress. Highly recommend. Will rent again!

So much fun :)
This dress was so much fun. The print is so lively ... nobody at your event will have anything close to it! It was a little tight on the top, and I'm only a 36C, so for larger chested ladies this may be a tough one. I paired it with the Ultimate Bling Bangle Stack and loved the two together. The bold print & the major sparkle worked well together. Wore a pair of LAMB heels with it for extra edge. Highly recommend!

I didn't attend the event
When the dress arrived, it was creased across the lap as though it hadn't been dry cleaned since its last wearing. I let RTR know right away, and unfortunately there wasn't enough time to get me another dress. They processed my credit right away. The size 12 dress was also a lot darker than the one shown here ... much less teal & lots more dark blue & black. Didn't quite capture the spring feeling I wanted. I ended up not going to the event. Just wasn't thrilled with the other options in my closet.

So sad that these are clip ons because they are gorgeous! Wore them to a gala, and had to keep taking them off all night for earlobe breaks. They looked great in photos, though.

Felt like the belle of the ball!
First, a word of advice. If you are over 5'6", call the RTR stylists before you order your dress! I didn't realize how short this dress would be, but i would have if I'd have called them. They also would have been able to tell me that this is one of their most popular gowns, so I would have expected the amount of wear the dress had (it was a lot more silver than gold, but gold accessories still worked with it). The bad: A seam inside the dress was ripped and I couldn't get it into my tailor in time to fix it, so I had to repair it. The good: It was easily enough fixed, and the looks & compliments I got all night long made it well worth the less-than-5-minute fix.

This dress made me feel so regal!
I wore this dress to two parties ... one at my country club and one at our local art center. The dress made me feel so elegant & sophisticated at both! The art center party was emerald themed, so my friends and I all got green RTR dresses. At both the country club and the art center we were turning heads all night! I wish we'd have had RTR referral cards to give out! I absolutely recommend this dress to any girl with some curves. The peplum is low-profile enough as not to add unwanted bulk around the hips, but pronounced enough to show off the trend. I'm a bit pear-shaped, so the 12 was tight around my hips, but fit perfectly around the bust. The 14 was perfect around my hips, but a bit too loose around the bust, so I went with the 12. Everyone kept saying it fit me like a glove, so maybe I'm just being paranoid about it being tight. :) Gorgeous dress. Great friends. A wonderful night. Hope everyone else who rents this dress has the same!

Loved them
I was thinking the dress was too blingy for dangly earrings. I was wrong. Never would have picked these. They were just enough to bring the whole look together. Thanks RTR stylists!

Perfect earrings
I got these as my Mystery Bling and they were perfect with the dress. Couldn't have picked a better accessory myself. Thinking about purchasing a pair for future occassions. You can tell they've been worn a lot ... I tried them on when I got them and noticed one of the jewels had been cracked & repaired. The part that had been glued back in fell out, as did another one of the jewels. I glued them back in right before we left, and didn't lose any other jewels throughout the night.
