Too long/too tight
Pretty soft gold color; nice quality, fully lined. Even with 3.5" heels dragged the floor and I could zip it up but still too uncomfortable to sit/eat/dance so ended up not wearing.

Runs small!
Could zip but not with a bra so had to go back. Smaller bust might look great.

High impact earrings.
I wanted some statement earrings to complement a Versace-ish print dress and these did the trick. The style and color worked with my dress perfectly. To echo what other reviewers said, they are super heavy clip-ons. I wore them to the cocktail party portion of my event and took them off in the car when I changed locations to head to the dinner party and forgot to put them back on!! LOL The car had been valeted so there was no getting it back. I was paranoid that I'd lose/drop and earring because I kept having to take them off. On the plus side, I wore them every day I had them with casual outfits so I got more than my money's worth even though I ended up forgetting to wear them for the event for which they were intended.

Major statement jewelry
I wanted to buy these earrings the second I put them on! They are large so they have a lot of impact but the delicate styling softens the look. They look like very $$ earrings. Love.

Gorgeous dress - easy to dress up or down
Love this dress but it was too tight in the bust so I had to return. Super understated, but would have been perfect with big gold jewelry for nighttime or could easily be accessorized for a work event. hated to send it back, but RTR makes it so easy.

Adorable
Didn't wear as it was my back-up but this is a really cute dress. I sized up to an 8 which fit well. It wasn't super short on me but if I'd worn as I'm so much shorter than the model, I would have gone with tights to make it more age appropriate. This would be a great party dress if you want to be covered-up assuming the length works for you.

This is a great program that makes RTR's already great service even better. Free shipping makes my decisions to rent even more of a no-brainer.

Fit like a t-shirt, but tres chic.
I was very happy with every aspect of this rental. I got a size 4 and 6 and the 6 was tight enough to look good, but it gave me a bit of breathing room. Two unexpected things about the dress; it was quite long….well below my knee…but since the fit is so slim I think it looked elegant. Also, in the pic the sequins look all silver but unless you flatten them down, the underside of the sequins look dark so you sort of have black 'splotches' in the silver. That took a bit of getting used to and in the end I think the effect made the dress look much more high-end. I wore it with a black cardigan for a wedding ceremony and with the cardigan off for the reception with a silver metallic bag and black cage shoes. Another reviewer commented about the underside of the hem snagging their hose but I wore it with bare legs and didn't feel any scratchiness. The effect of the dress is very modernist so you might think about having the right jewelry to complement that feel. Very pleased with RtR's service and the dress. Hope you have as much fun in it as I did.
