Perfect addition to a solid dress!

Wore these with the yellow Carmen Marc Volvo dress to a wedding, perfect compliment to the dress! They were heavy and by the end of the night they hurt but they were worth it!

Beautiful color - perfect for a Summer wedding

This was not the original dress I had ordered, so I had reservations when it was delivered in place of the Kate Spade yellow dress I had rented months in advance for a good friends summer wedding. That being said, the dress was a great substitute. I was nervous about the sizing as I usually wear a 6 dress and had sized down in the KS based on recommendations, so they sent a 4 in this as a replacement, surprisingly it was actually a bit loose, I could have worn the 2 as it was roomy in the shoulders and the waist so keep that in mind and maybe size down for a backup size. The nice thing about this dress is you can wear a normal bra, or none at all (its a thick material). The skirt was a bit poofier than I had originally liked, but it photographed well and people stopped me all night to compliment the dress. Overall I would recommend this dress!

Bachelorette party perfect

Wore this to a night out in AC for a girlfriends bachelorette, it was fun and fit well overall, loved the black underlay so that it wasn't too much cleavage! Would recommend.

Did not wear this dress- the built in bra is AWFUL

I rented this dress as a backup, thankfully my main dress worked out because this one was terrible. I LOVED the color and the material, what makes the dress so bad is the built in strapless bra with boning to your ribs... it is ill fitting, and not supportive, so all it does is gap strangely and poke in weird places - I made my chest look lumpy. I even tried the suggestion of some of the other reviewers who mentioned putting a strapless bra between the built in bra & the dress, but that didn't work out either. I would not recommend this dress. It also ran a bit big in the body.

Perfect dress for a formal summer wedding!

Loved this gown! Wore it to a friends black tie optional wedding, fit perfectly, and received many compliments on the color and the fit! It is a long gown, I am 5'7 and wore 4 inch heels and it still skimmed the floor a tad, so if you're not planning on wearing tall shoes I'd say go for the shorter length. Overall I'd rent this dress again - highly recommend!

Beautiful dress- strange fit!!

I am a frequent RTRW user (having 9 weddings in one year will do that to a girl!) so I always know to read the reviews of plenty of women before renting any dress. I was so grateful I did. I usually wear a standard size 6 dress, but all the reviews told me that this dress ran very small and they were right, reading those, I ordered an 8 and a 10, and I wore the 10. The dress has no give to the fabric at all and is cut very narrow through the hips/rear - I think it is made for straighter bodied women, but I've got hips so even the 8 was too tight to really bend or move around in. The 10 was big in strange places (it gapped across the top which I normally never have a problem filling out) and was roomy in the stomach, but still taunt across the hips/rear. Overall I was happy with the rental and I received SO MANY compliments on this dress, it photographed nicely, but it was not my favorite rental simply because the fitting was so off and it is not sized properly. If you're looking to rent this dress definitely head the warnings of other renters and order a size up from your usual size, and make your backup size the next size up from that!!

Pretty dress!

This dress was sent to me as a backup dress as the original I ordered wasn't available last minute due to damage by the prior renter (first time that ever happened to me!) anyway, I was looking for a gold sequins dress for my bachelorette party... this was not that look. It was very pretty & fit well but I would've felt much more comfortable wearing this to a wedding or similar type event rather than my bachelorette. I may rent it again for that reason.

Never wore the dress, never even tried it on so can't comment on fit, but the dress itself is very pretty & you can never go wrong with Lilly :)

Fits strangely

I rented this dress in an 8 as the reviews said it runs very small and I usually wear a 6. When I received it I wish I had ordered my true size as it was baggy in the stomach and needed to be pinned in the chest (which I usually need a bigger size in). Overall wouldn't recommend the dress... the sequins were also very scratchy under the arms for the brief period of time I tried the dress on. There are other nicer options for this look!

Perfect Bachelorette Party dress

I rented this dress last minute when an order I placed months ago wasn't coming due to the prior renter returning the dress damaged- and I'm SOO glad that it worked out this way, I loved this dress, wasn't too tight so I was comfortable all night & the cutouts were in just the right places to show a little skin without being too much. Would recommend & would rent again for the right occasion!

Wore to my engagement party - loved it!

I rented this dress for my summer engagement party - an outside affair at my parents house on the water. It was a perfect summer dress, very light so I wasn't hot on a sunny July day. You cannot wear a bra with the dress at all due to the full eyelet back, (loved the back) It was comfortable to wear, love the pockets too! I received so many compliments on the dress it was hard to send back!! I am a pretty standard size six and the dress fit, but I wish I ordered the 4 & the 6 instead of the 8 as my backup size as it was a little big and I would have liked to see how the 4 fit me but overall LOVED it & would definitely recommend!

Loved it! Perfect fun Holiday party dress!

Wore this to a Christmas party I hosted in my home. Loved the dress, it is very lowcut, and you cannot wear a bra so keep that in mind. I didn't love quite how low the deep halter went so I pinned the dress up a bit tighter at the neck, and it stayed perfectly all night. Its very flattering, tight to show off curves but thick enough material to still be flattering. Got tons of compliments, it is definitely an attention grabbing dress, so not for the shy, overall I loved it!

Was my backup

I ordered this dress as my backup, not realizing the other dress I ordered was the exact same, just in a different color! Luckily the original color fit and I loved it. So I'll share my review from the other dress as it was the exact same, just a brighter gold. "Loved this dress, was perfect for New Years Eve. It fit true to size across hips, there was a little stretch in the fabric but not much. I was able to wear it without a bra, it came pretty low in the back so I'm not sure a strapless would work but with such a thick sequin material I didn't find one necessary. As others have mentioned it was a tad short in the front, but certainly nothing inappropriate, and I'm tall, and wore with very high shoes. Overall I'd recommend!!" Only reason I rated this one one star tess than the one I wore was because I didn't love the color, I found it very flat.

LOVED this dress

Absolutely loved this dress, the fit was perfect, such a fun holiday look. I wore it to a holiday party I was hosting in my apartment and got rave reviews from my friends. I felt it fit pretty true to size, maybe a tad small as I'm usually between a 6 and 8 and I wore an 8. (I didn't try on the 6 as it wasn't in stock when I wanted it). Overall would definitely recommend!
