Took my husband's breath away. It is just stunning. Love the cape. I am 5'7 and the length of the Regular felt a tad short with heels. It didn't touch the floor and left my shoes and some of my ankle exposed. Totally fine but if you want that long, flowy look, perhaps opt for the Long.

Obsessed!
More gorgeous in person. So comfortable and classic and the navy blue was lovely especially at an event that was a sea of black. I cannot tell you how much I loved this dress. Hid a tummy very well. I wore the XL because it hung more nicely and was longer than the L. I wear size 10 normally.

Fun and very loose fitting/forgiving
Wore it to a baby shower. Easy wear. Probably would look cute belted too but hangs and is very baggy without (which is what i wanted).

LOVE this dress. Great for maternity bump. Thicker fabric that lays really nicely.
Wore this for a work conference in the beginning of my third trimester. It rocked. Needed some helping zipping in and out of it but its a gorgeous dress that I didn't want to take off.

Comfy!
Super comfy jumpsuit. I wear a 10-12 on RTR and went with the 12 because it just felt better. The waistband was really tight in the 10 and the butt/thighs area was slightly tighter. Since the fabric has no give, I felt more comfortable in the 12 and it didn't look baggy. It was bigger in the top (I'm smaller chested) but not too big to wear.

Pretty and conservative!
Rented this for a formal event and needed a super conservative look. It fit the bill! It's actually navy though, not black! The 10L was a little too long for me. I was tripping over it, but the 10R was unavailable. Wouldn't have been good for dancing because it was too long.

Pretty and comfortable
This dress fits great. I normally wear a medium, but only the large was available. It hung well and wasn't too big on me. It was easy to dance in. The color is very much as pictured -- a pale pink/rose.

Great on any figure!
Normally an 8-10 but the store only had a 12. I think I could have worn a 10 no problem. The fabric is really stretchy so it's very flattering, even on curvy women. And you can adjust the shoulders so that its off both or one or none (as pictured). Super flattering dress.

Would have been beautiful...had it fit.
It's a really lovely dress. A little fancier than I expected. But god it was so tight. I normally wear a 6 and rented a size up based on the reviews. Could barely zip up the 6, and while I could zip the 8, the fabric was so tight and unforgiving that you can see a noticeable pouch in my stomach. Not even Spanx could help. It looks really pretty from the front, but it's totally unforgiving from the side. The slit is definitely high, even for someone with long legs. So you gotta love your legs to wear this. I wish it had worked, but I just felt really really uncomfortable, and ended up wearing something else. Disappointing...

Weird fabric
I rented this dress for a spring wedding, thinking it would be a fun, slinky piece. It was super thick! The fabric reminds me the stuff that scuba suits are made out of. It's very bulky and completely inappropriate for a warm weather event. I didn't really like the way it fit on me either, given the bulkiness of the material. So I didn't end up wearing it.

BEAUTIFUL!
Absolutely adored this dress. It fit well and didn't make me feel self conscious. The pattern is very flattering and the colors are beautiful. I wore it to an Indian wedding and loved that it wasn't a boring, plain dress. I can't wait to rent it again.

Good Gatsby dress!
It was a fun party dress. Hard to see in photos but fun to wear. The feathers were a bit of a mess. They fell off all over the place and got stuck in the zipper. The waistband was a little tight for me at the time, but not unmanageable. Loved that it was black and covered up any and all imperfections!

Cute, fun, and comfy!
Wore it for NYE and liked it! Went with the 6 for length and wore tights with it, and it was great. I felt and looked slim in it and it wasn't too short. Super comfortable too--not too tight or restricting. I would rent it again.

Fits weird
I normally wear a 6, but ordered a 4 and 6 because reviews said it runs large. Not even the 6 fit! It hugged my thighs in a weird way, such that it was too loose around the waist and too tight around my butt/thighs. It wouldn't have worked even with spanx. I would say that girls with booty/thighs need to size up. I didn't end up wearing it.

Awkward shape
I am normally a 6-8 and I ordered an 8 (46). The arms were way too long and the dress was kind of shapeless. Not fitted like the picture. But I didn't have a 6 to compare it to. I also did not like the exposed seams in the back of the dress. Made it look and feel cheap. I ended up not wearing the dress and returning it. Too bad. Looks like it would be so sexy, but it wasn't.

Cute color
I wore this to a rehearsal dinner. I liked it on, but I don't think it photographed well on me. It fit a little loose in the waist, making it look more like a sheath than a fitted dress. It was still very pretty, but I wouldn't rent it again.

Great color but tight through hips
This is a really cute dress with the asymmetrical bottom half. I normally wear a size 6, but I felt that the straight/flat part of the dress was too tight and short in the 6. It was much more comfortable and dance-able in the 8, though that made the bust and body a little looser than I would have liked. It's a little difficult to sit in, but not unmanageable.

Really beautiful color! Lots of compliments!
This dress is so lovely that I just wanted to steal it! I got so many compliments on the color and the fit was just right. There's a cool detail to the back, but I didn't have the right bra, so my bra strap would show between the slits of fabric. Either get the right bra or wear a nude one (I don't think I could have gone braless in this one). I felt really great in this dress and would definitely rent it again.

Super chic!
I really like this dress. It's both fun and flirty but super classy. I wore it to NYE and it sparkled in person (not so much in pictures, though). The fit is very nice, tight but not clingy. It was short but not uncomfortably short, though it does ride up a little when you raise your arms. So if you plan on dancing with your arms in the air all night, you might want to get some tights for peace of mind.

Too too small!
I normally wear a 4 and ordered a size up to a 6 for this dress, based on the recommendations of RTR. However, even that wasn't sufficient. I definitely have a booty, and I was completely unable to move or sit down. It fit everywhere else except the butt/hips. I wish I had gotten an 8 because I loved the dress, but there was no way it was wearable.

Attention Grabbing!!
This dress is so fabulous that the wedding photographer pulled me aside and said "Quick, pose! I love your dress and I haven't gotten a shot of you in it all night!" Tons of compliments and it's so much fun to wear (might want to consider investing in those sticky cups around your boobs, but not necessary for small chests). I normally wear a 4 or 6 in a dress, but a 4 was definitely needed. Length was perfect with heels.

Dark plum color that looks great on anyone. I really liked this dress in plum, but they accidentally sent me another size in black, which looked a little like a funeral dress. Go with the plum!
