Beautiful and unique dress!
Very pretty wedding guest dress: lots of swing, lively colors and plenty of cleavage! And it was so easy to match with ANY fun accessory! With a size M, it was a bit of a challenge finding the right bra, but I made it work with a plunging strapless. It would have been perfect with an adjustable strap to tighten things up a bit. The size small was tight in the waist (say goodby to cocktail hour), but was slightly better in the chest. Unfortunately the small had a really odd bump in the back...

I felt so beautiful!
Honestly... This dress was hideous on the hanger, but after putting it on the dress was gorgeous!! It's such a beautiful gown! The dress has a bra inside, but I decided to wear an additional bra to fit better on top. It hugged my curves and fit just right! The back of the dress dragged on the floor a bit, but I feel like it turned up the glamour-factor. I would buy this dress... but then again, why should I when I could rent it!?

Beautiful dress... very unique!
I rented this dress for my husband's birthday party. The setting of the event was in a beautiful, older home, which had been converted to a bar/restaurant... this means it required a dress that was equally unique! When I saw this dress on RTR, I knew it was the perfect dress for the occasion and setting. The color is a perfect blend of blue and green (a bit more green), and the gold thread really catches the eye. The design of the "wings" was a beautiful surprise, and made the dress surely stand out! I would rent this dress again if there was an extra large option... because this was tight! I paired this with a spanx-skirt and panthose (it was 5 degrees outside), and lucky for me, it seemed to hold it all in! All in all, I felt pretty and received a lot of compliments! Thanks again, RTR!

Nice dress
I wore this dress as a backup to my first dress that wouldn't arrive on time. I honestly wasn't wowed by the dress when I first saw it online and in person, but knew it would be a "safe" bet. The dress was very comfortable the whole night as it fit me perfectly overall. I added my own sparkly accessories which helped make the outfit pop and help me stand out more. I received compliments for how I put it all together!

Perfectly unique dress
Wore this dress for my in-laws graduation dinner, and really enjoyed wearing it! It was loose and comfortable enough for me to decorate for the party after the graduation. I wore it with my own maroon/red heels to play up the red in the dress. I received tons amid compliments in a room filled with other RTR dresses ... ha! I'll definitely rent this again!

Beautiful, comfy, classic dress
I really liked this dress and loved the way it fit. Other than being a little puffy in the shoulder area, the fit in the chest, waist, and hips were great. I added a belt to further cinch the waist, and definitely preferred this look. I wore it to church on NYD, while holding 2 very squirmy kids. I felt great in it!!

Yowza! That's what I call a dress!
I really LOVED this dress! I felt like a glamour girl around NYC. The pattern was fitting for an evening wedding on a yacht on the NYC harbor. The fit was great; I could have gone without a bra, but felt a little weird without one (I've never been without one!). It was surprisingly comfortable, and pretty low maintenance. I was able to dance freely and eat a buffet dinner with no issues. When my husband saw me in this dress, he quickly said, "Is it rent to own? Lets buy it!" I had to explain to him that RTR doesn't work that way. Ha!!! I received compliments throughout the night!

Great fit!! Felt like a million bucks!
I went to a wedding only 6 weeks after having a baby, and was so worried that this dress wouldn't fit. Not only was my baby bump still noticeable, but my lactating boobs were begging to be seen. When I tried on the 10 (I was a 10 pre-baby), the zipper didn't budge past the waist... But the 12 fit perfectly! I was quite comfortable in the 12, even after wearing it for 7 hours without pumping! I would highly recommend this dress to any buxom bombshell! You will get compliments all night long!

Nice size, but a bit dull for my taste
It was a great size clutch; fit all of my essentials. But it was a bit dull for me... When it arrived, I kept flipping it over to figure out which was the shinier side, and committed to showing that side all night.

Perfect drop earrings for the event!
I'm not EVER a fan of clip on earrings, but when I saw these in the box I knew I had to wear them! They are a beautiful green, gold, and diamond pair that were the perfect match with an RTR Badgley Mischka Flora Chiffon dress. They ended up hurting when I arrived at the wedding reception, but there was certainly no turning back!! Just gorgeous!

Not sure why I thought my pregnant body could fit into this dress. However, after seeing the color and style of he dress, I vowed I would wear it post-pregnancy.

Perfect for a Bump reveal
Loved this dress. I received so many compliments on the color and fit. Many of the guests at the wedding didn't even notice the belly because they said I looked so good in the dress! "It was made for you!" The ribbing on top began to dig into my skin toward the end of the night. I felt relief when I stood, which forced me to be on the dance floor the entire night (not necessarily a bad thing!)

I wore these earrings as part of my super sexy, super sparkly 30th birthday party!! Because of my love of blue, these were exactly what I was looking for, and were the perfect level of spectacular that I needed for event. I wish I could keep them...

Very comfortable dress, but not as flattering as I had hoped.
I wore this dress to church on New Years Day, and can't say that it was all that great. As the other reviews state, the dress is heavy and perfect for a fall/winter event. I felt that the fit was odd in a few areas. For example, the chest puckered out near the boob/shoulder and the waistline fell in an odd location, highlighting my post-baby belly. It was a VERY comfortable dress, which was imperative when carrying around an 8 month old.

Beautiful color! Perfect for a sunset dinner!
I wore this dress for our 2nd Wedding Anniversary dinner in Key West. I wanted a dress which would complement the spectacular sunset of KW, was a flirty date dress, and would be comfortable to carry around my 4 month old son who joined us for our sunset dinner. I had the dress delivered to our hotel, so I packed according to the recommendations. Pretty high standards, I know!!! All in all, it was a very pretty color... a mix of a light, bright, airy orange and coral on top. The skirt was light and flowy; perfect with the wind on the pier. It popped with my skin tone, and was quite pleasing to the eye. My husband liked it... not a WOW effect, but he said that it was very pretty. It is evident in the pictures that it definitely matched the sunset; so CHECK there! In regards to the fit: the size 10 dress was pretty tight on the top of the back (right below the key hole cut). Unfortunately, the 12 fit like a burlap sack, so I had to go with the 10. The pulling was only noticeable from the back, so not a big deal. It wasn't very comfortable, but I was able to move around as a new momma needs to!! Lastly, I wore this with a regular bra, as was recommended, but my black bra straps kept showing on the shoulder (see the 2nd picture), and peek-a-booed under the arm. Boo!!

Classy and Colorful... just what I was looking for!
Beautiful dress! This dress was perfect for my 4mo old's Christening ceremony! I had been searching for a colorful, classy dress that would POP in pictures, but still be suitable for church. My normal size 10 was not available, so I was amazed that the 12 fit. I paired it with my own gold circle earrings and blue suede heels. I felt like a million bucks! P.S. This dress is NOT WHITE! Definitely a cream/off-white dress...This may be due to all the dry cleaning that it's gone through, but that should be noted somewhere in the dress description. The colors are also a bit dull, but you can't tell in the pictures.

It actually looked better than I expected it to...
First time renting a dress... This was originally a back up dress, since the original dress (Elie Tahari Colorful Sheath) that I wanted was not available in my size 10. =( Boo!! As you can imagine, I had REALLY low expectations for this dress. Four months post baby, I figured the 12 would be perfect, but it just didn't fit right. The fabric made this weird hump on my back, and the gathering in the front was in the weirdest place. I tried on the size 10, and the fit was perfect! It is a very Beautiful dress! Very pretty color!! I ended up wearing this dress for my 4mo old's Christening reception. Received compliments all evening about how awesome I looked! (And the dress definitely highlighted all the right curves.) This dress went well beyond my expectations! P.S. I had to wear a racer back bra with this dress. I don't see how someone can wear a standard bra with this one..
