Fun dress. Not for small busted women.
I was so excited to receive this dress. I was hoping to wear it to a whimsical debutante ball. The 6L fit on the lower body but the top was too big. It gaped in the chest. This dress would probably look perfect on a larger busted woman (larger than a B cup.)

Beautiful casual long dress.
I did not end up wearing this dress. I rented a number of dresses for 2 formal affairs back-to-back. This dress is not formal at all. It is pure silk and beautiful but great for beach wedding or event. I would wear this out on a date night with my hubby.

This dress is a KNOCK out! I received compliments all night! I felt fabulous in this dress!
This dress is perfect for the hourglass figure. It is very well made. And falls so nicely on the body. I was a little worried about the ruffle and how it might actually look on the body but it looks great. Very very slimming. The color is gorgeous emerald green. I would rent this dress again in a heart beat. It is a formal gown for a formal affair. I have a smaller chest 36B but really closer to an A. I wore a lightly padded strapless and it fit great. So I would not recommend this for very full busted women. Overall, an incredible dress and made for an incredible event.

Formal coronation affair. Dress is well made and looks beautiful on the hangar.
I was so excited to wear this dress. This dress is not slimming at all. I am almost 5'8" and wear a 4/6 in dresses. I wore the 6L in this dress. This dress made me look a lot larger than I am. The top is boxy. The cut up top makes arms look large. There is a lot of material around the waist so while it is cut in a slimming way - the layers of material do not allow the dress to actually be slimming. The material is very sheer so the layers are needed but sadly it impacts the look of the dress. I did wear the dress. The event I went to was mainly sitting so it was okay. I would not rent this again.

Gorgeous dress - not for small chested.
This dress was amazing but the top is huge. I am 5'7" and wear a 36B bra size. (Normally a 4-6 in dresses.) The top was too big - I could not wear the dress. I was so sad. It fit perfectly otherwise - great for hourglass shape.

Beautiful dress. Very slimming. Simple, yet elegant.
It runs short. I am 5'7" - 140 and I easily wore a 6L. I am between size 6-8 - losing baby weight. I fit into the 6 - no problem. My only complaint - It was too short. I felt a little uncomfortable because the dress fell at my ankles. (And I ordered the long.) So - in heels - I felt a little silly. I could have worn flats - but who wants to wear flats at a formal affair?!?! I wouldn't rent this dress again because of the length. However, I will be renting from RTR again - fantastic experience in every way!
