I loved this dress. One of the best I've rented from RTR. It is great for dancing and would fit a range of body types. I have a large bust, and though it was a little snug, it still fit me. The webbing detail -- which is hard to see in the photo -- is so cool. The dress has a great shape and fits shorter women just fine. So many compliments, but mainly I was just happy with how I looked.

I wore this to officiate a friend's outdoor wedding. It was perfect - the draping made it look like a very fashionable minister. It's easy to wear, if hard to figure out how to put on. The draping can fold several ways, and it took me a little while to figure out how it was supposed to go. It was comfortable and mod. Curvy women can wear this, although it isn't the most flattering cut. Like I said, this was perfect for my unique need, but otherwise I don't think I would rent again.

Rented for a work holiday party. Fun dress, really stands out in a dark room. Not too short, not too tight. Structured. The 4 also fit, but was a little too tight on my bust to be really comfortable all evening, so I opted for the larger size.

I almost hate to review this dress, because I'm afraid everyone will rent it, and it will never be available for me to rent again, which I definitely intend to do. This is sexy, cool, stretchy, comfortable, flattering, and just fabulous. It's very silky, so if you are wearing tights, it will ride up your thighs when you walk, but it still clings to your body, so it's not skimpy. It's lined (though the lining was a bit longer than the dress in my case). Everyone in my NYE party loved this dress - lots of compliments.

It's a great dress for a conservative Jewish wedding. I wore both the 6 and the 4 - the first for a morning brunch ceremony, the second for the evening reception at a concert/beer hall. Both sizes fit, but the 4 was a bit tighter and shorter, of course. It's a linen fabric, so it does wrinkle, but you can't really tell. It's a boxy, mod fit. Easy to dress up or down. This dress should fit and flatter most women with no problem.

Didn't like this dress - the cut and quality seemed a bit off. Ran small. Didn't hug curves. Very straight fit. Just not what I expected. I wore a back-up dress instead.

I did not end up wearing this dress, but I thought it was really cool. I wished it had fit better. I think this dress is actually okay for women with large busts - it is harder for women who are curvy in the hips and waist. It is unforgiving in the lower body. I agree with other reviews that the fit is kind of weird and awkward in the chest and shoulders, but it is work-able. If I was more streamlined in the hips and abs, then I would have worn this dress. It's way cool. I'm jealous of women who can pull this off. If you're thinking of renting it, then definitely go for it, but have a really solid back-up dress, because it is a very specific fit.

I didn't end up wearing this dress. It's a great idea, but not meant for women with large busts. It was cleavage city, in a Playboy Mansion kind of way. Otherwise, it was a perfectly nice black jersey dress, but for that same reason, I don't think it's worth the rental price. It had a nice, slimming fit (other than the bust). The material was thick and comfortable. The cutout is quite long, FYI. Other than the Calvin Klein label, I don't see how this dress justifies this price. But if money is no object, and you are small-chested, then this is an elegant, classic option.

Loved this dress. It runs big. I could have worn a 4R easily. There are two sashes that extend from the center bottom tip of the jeweled neckline that can be used to tie a waist into the dress, but I preferred the full, relaxed caftan look, sans waist. It's a lovely color. It does run a little long - I am 5'3", and I wore tall heels, but the dress still scraped the floor too much. But I got many compliments from strangers at two separate events. It's a gorgeous, unique dress that is very easy to wear.

This is a clingy, sexy dress. It hits mid-thigh. The straps are a bit long, so they are hard for shorter women. I sized down to a S because the Medium's straps were just too long for my frame. Both the small and medium fit me, but the medium was a bit more comfortable. You can create a ruched effect on the dress by pulling the skirt up a little - this will flatter some curves. The back zipper of the dress looks a little funky if you do this, but it works. This is a thick fabric, which mitigates the tight fit. I felt fully covered and supported in this dress.

This runs a bit tight, but it has a great structured fit. Good length, versatile color and design. The only problem with my dress was that the hem was bad - the lining stuck out several inches from the bottom of the dress. I couldn't fix it. Maybe RTR could hem the lining. I felt like a sexy galaxy for my space-themed party, so I was pleased with the dress.

This was fun, if a little difficult to pull off. It is a thick material, like a structured wool suit, which was great. It wasn't flimsy. But it is very low cut, as well as very short. I thought the short length made it really sexy and fun - I loved that. But the deep V-neck was difficult, especially since I have ample cleavage. If I hadn't been going to an all-women event, I would have felt uncomfortable. I tried pinning it, but it didn't work, so I just wore it open, with a black satin bra. You could also wear it with a camisole I suppose. Flat-chested women will have more luck with this piece. I did love it though, and I recommend it. The fit is generous enough to go down a size.

I really enjoyed this dress. I wore it to a party for a Tennessee football game. About the cut - it is a straight-cut dress, not a babydoll or A-line. I have a curvy, hourglass shape. I went a size up so that the dress would fit over my hips. It fit when I sized up, and it still looked cute. The waist is very loose and generous, but the hips and, to a lesser extent, the chest, are fitted. It was a perfect length, hitting me mid-thigh (5'3"), although riding up quite a bit when I sat down. It is a thick cotton-linen fabric, easy to wear in summer or fall. The orange color is a true, bold orange. Not burnt orange or a lighter 'Tennessee' orange.
