Another successful Elizabeth and James rental
I had rented this style a couple years ago in the green color and loved it. This color is also gorgeous. I went a size up in this dress. Normally wear a 0, wore a size 2. The size 0 wasn't available and the 2 worked fine. This dress still has a thick fabric but not as thick as this style in green dress I had rented previously. I wouldn't recommend for outdoor events if it's super hot because sweat would be noticeable. Otherwise, rent this dress!

Another Elizabeth and James dress that I wish I owned. It fits like a true Elizabeth and James dress (a little small). I could have worn the size two and it would have looked equally as good as the size zero. I prefered the size 0 due to not being able to wear a bra with this dress. I just didn't have a bra that worked with the cutouts. I love the color, design, and fit of this dress. It is one of the thicker Elizabeth and James dresses, which I appreciate. I highly recommend this dress!

Stunning Color and Elegant design
This was the dress I originally ordered, but I ended up wearing a back up as one of the sizes of this dress was not available to ship. I tried this on at the end of the night and I love it. The color is vibrant, but not overwhelming, and the design is sexy and elegant. I'm 5'6 and this dress hits at my knee. I should have looked at the size that I received before I sent it back. RTR records show I had a size zero, but this didn't fit like a true zero in my opinion, maybe a little bigger? I was wearing a tighter dress prior so maybe that is where I am getting confused. This dress isn't thick or heavy. However, braless is an option. Pictures are without a bra. I'd probably rent this again and actually wear it. I definitely recommend this dress.

Loved it so much I wore it the whole weekend
I LOVE this ring. I wore it the entire weekend I had it. It went great with a casual sundress and maxi dress during the day and equally as great with the BCBGMAXAZRIA White Light Sheath dress (rented) and the Slate and Willow Carlene Dress (rented). Recommend for any and all events.

Girls weekend in Vegas
This dress was great! Fit was true to size and I was able to wear it with an adjustable strap bra. I just loved the straps out to the side a little more to ensure they wouldn't show. It was thick enough to not have to worry about what underwear I was going to wear (nothing colorful though). Unfortunately some of the jewelry that I rented got lost in transit so I didn't have earrings to wear with this dress but RTR was quick to respond and I got it replacement the next day to go with my other outfit. I wore this dress with the Chinese Laundry Monique Wedge in nude with the Sarah Magid Gold Swirl Double Ring (rented).

Exactly what I was looking for
I rented this dress for a girls weekend in Vegas and specifically for a show we were going to. This dress was perfect. Didn't ride up at all. True to size in my opinion. It's also on the thicker side so braless is definitely an option. The back is low and can't wear a regular bra. I ended up wearing a bra with sticky sides and it worked well. I paired this dress with the Elizabeth and James Itten earrings (rented), the Sarah Magid Golf Swirl Double ring (rented), the Kate Spade Black Cameron Street Sima Clutch (rented), and Michael Kors Berkley T strap sandal. Absolutely love this dress.

Short and tight
I love the design of this dress but it ended up being too short for comfort so I didn't wear it. It was tighter and thinner than the other Elizabeth and James dresses I've worn in the past. Definitely have to wear a low profile nude underwear.

These are a perfect pair of earrings that could really go in any direction. I went with an edgier look, but could have easily paired these with a formal gown. Love these!

I love the look of this necklace with any of the Elizabeth and James dresses. The length really makes the dresses come to life. I pair this with Elizabeth and James Windrose Pave Cuff, Ella Carter Ryan Earrings, and of course and Elizabeth and James dress.

Love this dress, fits like a glove.
I absolutely love the way Elizabeth and James dresses fit and this dress does not disappoint. I received several compliments and felt comfortable all night. It is on the shorter side, but still elegant enough for a wedding. I attended an outdoor wedding in 104 degree heat and was sweating by the end of the ceremony but nothing soaked through (thank god!). I wore this dress with Elizabeth and James Windrose Pave Cuff, Elizabeth and James Valencia Lariat Necklace, and Ella Carter Ryan Earrings (all rented) with nude wedges and a nude purse with gold chain. Highly recommend this dress for any occasion really. Easy to dress up or down. Heads up for ladies with a little more bust, go a size up. The dress is still form fitting but will give you a little more room up top.

LOVE the fit and color
I'm obsessed with Elizabeth and James dresses since I rented my first one a couple months ago. I ordered this same dress, but in green, previously and wanted to try this color. It's definitely a brighter pink than the display pictures show, but I loved it nonetheless. I ended up not wearing the dress only because it was an outdoor wedding in 104 degree heat and I was worried about sweat showing everywhere. It's not as thick as the other green Elizabeth and James dress I rented (again, same style). I would recommend this dress to any event where sweating profusely wouldn't be an issue. I wore this dress with Elizabeth and James Windrose Pave Cuff, Elizabeth and James Valencia Lariat necklace, and Ella Carter Ryan Earrings (all rented) with nude wedges and a nude colored purse with gold chain.

I wore this necklace with the Elizabeth and James Exclusive Kenna dress and the Gorjana Mave handpiece. I received multiple compliments and loved how both accessories went with my dress. I loved the necklace so much I'm actually going to buy. Highly recommend it.

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE
I always say the worst part about my RTR experiences is having to send the dresses I fall in love with back. This is by far one of the best dresses I've ever worn. In all honesty this dress was selected by a RTR stylist because the dress I originally ordered wasn't available. I was actually disappointed when I was looking at it online. The pictures definitely don't do this dress justice! It's a beautiful color with a classy and sexy fit. I wore a size 0, my backup size wasn't available, so I'm not sure which I would have prefered to wear. This dress hugged every part of my body and had a surprisingly thick material. Nothing heavy or anything. However, the ceremony I attended ran late and everyone was left sitting in the direct afternoon sun for an extra 15-20 min. I was worried about sweat being noticeable, but it wasn't at all! I wore a strapless bra, but I'm sure if I spent more time adjusting my bra straps I could have worn straps. I accessorised with Gorjana Mave handpiece, Gorjana Knox Pave Dagger necklace, and a pair of diamond stud earrings. I chose to wear a nude wedge since it was an outdoor wedding. I highly recommend this dress. It will not disappoint!

Bright and Beautiful
As with every other Nicole Miller Dress, I fell in love! I was unable to received this dress in my preferred size, size 0, but the two wasn't noticeably large on me. The top part of the butt was a little baggy, but nothing too noticeable. I ended up wearing a bra with no back that has adhesive sides. All of my other bra bands were a little too noticeable. I would have gone braless since it was snug enough around the bust, but the fabric wasn't very thick so it would have been noticeable. Overall, I highly recommend this dress!

I love this dress!
I rented this dress for my sisters wedding last October and I had so many compliments. I was actually 16 weeks pregnant and hadn't told all of our friends yet and this dress was very flattering and no one knew I was pregnant. I normally wear a size 0-2, but my bust had increased two sizes so I wore the size 4 which fit perfectly. It's a little heavier fabric than I expected but it was perfect for the October evening weather up in the Oregon mountains. It also has pockets! I wore this dress with sapphire drop earrings (also rented), a kate spade black clutch (rented), and black platform wedges. A month or so after the wedding I saw Meghan Trainer wear this dress on the red carpet for an awards event.

Felt like a million bucks!
I absolutely love this gown! I felt incredible and got so many complements. I saw a few other RTR dresses at the military ball I attended, but I was the only one wearing this dress. I'm 5'5 and wore the 0R with 3 in heels and it was barely long enough for me. I would definitely recommend getting a long if your going to wear taller heels. I didn't notice too much of a difference between the 0 and 2 size. Te only difference that stood out to me was that the 0 had a side zipper which made it a little more form fitting. The length with the 2 was a little longer too. I wore this dress with gold heels that had a little bling on them and they went really well together. I also rented the Nicole Miller Southern Plantation Earrings and the Whiting & David Gold Mesh Glam Clutch. Both went perfectly with this gown. The gown it self is between a gold and rose hold color. So unique and stunning. I highly recommend this dress to anyone.

Beautiful dress!
This was actually my back up dress and I ended up having a tougher time deciding between the two. I went with my original dress selection but I would have felt equally as beautiful in this dress. I did, however, see two other women at the military ball I attended wearing this gown but in black and red. The dress did fit perfectly and I loved how I felt in it. The color is much brighter in person, but that wasn't an issue for me. The dress didn't require a special bra either. I would definitely recommend this dress for any formal event. Oh, I wore a 0R which is what I usually wear and it fit great. I'm 5'5 and was going to wear 3in heels and the R length would have been fine but nothing higher than that.
