Pulled My Look Together
Great statement earring with my RTR dress. These weren't too heavy. I love big, dangle earrings. So fun!!

Great Color!!
Pros: Great color! My photo shows the color well in natural light. Fit my body type really well. Small bust, a little junk in the trunk, straight and narrow through hips. Great length. Cons: I didn't love how it was made. However it was sewn made the dress shift to the right all night. I had to continually tug it. I wanted the slit to be higher. I have fairly long legs and it was only at my knee. I wouldn't own this dress but it was a fun, unique one to wear one time!! Lots of compliments. Just didn't love tugging and adjusting all night.

Great Fit
Comfortable yet sleek and sexy. The medium fit my body like a glove, wearing a strapless bra and regular underwear. No spanx needed although I understand the confidence boost so you could certainly wear if you wanted to. The material was thick enough I didn't feel the need. Really enjoyed this dress!

Loved the color and the bodice fit. It was perfect for a Summer bridal shower. Very pretty dress. I didn't feel particular "sexy"... More cute & pretty. :)

My husband truly couldn't take his eyes off me
This dress is BOMBSHELL status!! Don't let its simplicity fool you. Fitted in all the right ways, easy to dance in, rouching that makes you feel confident with your flaws, and a stunning low back but not too low to wear high waisted panties!! It was perfect. Wore a stick-on bra that held the girls in place but has a mesh lining so you could go braless if your girls are perky. Three kids later, mama needs a little help. ;)

Sleek & Sexy
As a mom of 3, I was a little nervous about not being able to wear spanx due to the tightness of the dress and open back. I ended up going commando, in fact, because even my thong string was visibly cutting into my hips. I wore a stick-on bra that clips in the center. I appreciated the length of the skirt. It balanced out the tightness. I am small busted so the v-neck worked for me. And the mesh made the open back/cutouts feel more doable for a wedding. I felt sexy but not overly so. I did find the dress riding up quite a bit when I walked around. Overall, great dress with a few quirks for me, personally.

Perfect dress
Loved this choice for an outdoor, Summer wedding. Hugged the curves but the length and my lack of boobs balanced that nicely. Felt sexy but still classy. Great dress!! The small was unavailable but not sure I could have zipped it anyway. Think I needed the medium for my butt. Size up for your back up!!

I'm a "less is more" kinda girl when it comes to jewelry. This piece was the perfect accent to wear with a solid print dress with not a lot of detail. Simple and lovely

Danced the night away
Loved the color and the back. As a mom of three im not super confident about my stomach. The thick material helped but I still struggled with holding my stomach in all night. I just didn't feel 100% confident without spanx. I tried to put them on but with the low back I couldn't pull them high so it defeated the purpose. Def had to wear a stick-on bra. Or a low back bra would probably work too, if you're bigger busted and need the support. I'm an A-cup so the stick on with front closure works for me. I also would have liked it to be a little shorter but it hit exactly where I expected it to and with heels it's looked great. Flirty and cutesy, just like my hubby likes. ;) I wore my hair side-swept to show off the back. Personally I think this dress would look best on someone who is tall with a long torso. But it worked out fine and I still felt lovely all evening.

Head-Turning
This dress made me feel sexy and beautiful. The perfect blend!! It was perfect for my husband's award banquet in Cabo. I got complimented all night! Totally worth the week-long rental. I said "Runs Small" because I wore the 6. I am a 4 but the fabric wasn't stretchy. The 6 felt perfectly. I was bummed because it wasn't a long but with flats it still looked great.

Perfect romper! Not too short but still sexy. I would recommend it for someone with a larger chest. I'm an A and I felt a little less flattered in this. But it was still gorgeous and very well made. Perfect for Cabo!

Style & Comfort
This dress is incredible! I went out of my LBD box and rented sparkles and glam for my husband's 10th annual award banquet (he was #1 in the company and 29th in the world this year!!). I can't say enough good things about this dress...the fit, the slit, the color made my eyes POP! I wore the long with 4 1/2 in heels and it was perfect. I wore my hair down and it kept getting stuck to the sequins on the dress but it wasn't the end of the world.

Great Costumer Service!!
My item got caught at a UPS shipping center due to the epic snow storm, Jonas. As I was away on vacation I didn't realize it hadn't arrived until the morning of my event. I'm writing this review to complement the excellency customer care I received when I called the morning of my event to see what RTR could do for me. Unfortunately UPS was closed for ground shipping so they were unable to release the package. However, the CS rep did her absolute best to track it down and see if anything could be done. Once she realized that would not be a possibility she was very sympathetic and rerouted the package back to RTR and issued me a full refund. Thankfully, I was able to find a gorgeous dress on the clearance rack at Macy's and my night was fabulous. I would have loved to wear this to my Gatsby inspired event but the dress I found worked just as well and I will continue using RTR for future occasions as I have had much success in the past!!

Classy
Sorry, the photo was more about my professional make-up, but they are the best view of how the earrings fit. They were gorgeous! I'm a mom of three including a baby and I loved being able to rock big earrings for the evening without worrying they would get ripped out of my head. They weren't too big but big enough to be a serious statement piece with my dress. I don't think they need a necklace, but if you do wear one, go small. These earrings speak for themselves!

Sexy yet Classy
I wore this to my husband's annual Awards banquet for work. (Black Tie Optional) I loved how I felt in this dress! I originally had planned to wear a long dress but my dress became unavailable due to either a late return or damage. The employees at RTR were extremely helpful in helping me decide what would work best for me. I was so thrilled with the result! This was my first year wearing a short dress to this annual event and I still felt plenty formal. The only reason I didn't give it a 5 is because, yes as the description even warns, the sleeves are very tight but not impossible to put on. I wore spanx shape wear to help suck in my tummy and I still feel like there was not much forgiveness but that's the nature of the tight dress! It hit at a very comfortable length, maybe 2 inches above the knee. I didn't love how it rode up every time I walked and the lining did have a habit of sticking out the bottom. I'm not sure why they didn't sew the lining to the bottom of the dress. Someone else recommended wearing a slip but I did not so I'm not sure if that would solve those issues. I don't think it needs a necklace. I wore my hair up with statement earrings and it really worked. Thanks for another great experience, RTR!!

I'm not a big purse purchaser so I love the idea of being able to rent one for special occasions! This went perfectly with the dress I rented and I was happy with the quality.

"You look like you're going to the Oscars!"
My first complement of the evening (with many to come) was from our babysitter. "You look ready for the Red Carpet for the Oscars tomorrow." This is my second time with RTR and I can't say enough good things about the process and the dress itself. This particular dress is very well made. The bottom half of the dress was 5 layers of fabric and flowed beautifully. Dates of people I didn't even know at my husbands black tie Awards Banquet were coming up to me saying how gorgeous my dress was. I felt confident and elegant all night. I got the Long ONLY because the regular wasn't available. This was a very long dress. I wore 4 inch heels and it was still touching the ground. I love long dresses though and since I'm more legs than torso this was perfect for me. I would have worn 6 inch heels but my husband didn't want me to be taller than him. :) I wore a strapless bra. I am small busted so I needed it to fill out the top a little more. But you really don't need to wear a bra. It's nice that you can wear a strapless and it doesn't pop out if you want to. To sum up, this dress is totally worth the price to rent! Loved it!!

Red Carpet Ready
Do you enjoy being the wall flower? Standing back and admiring everyone? Sipping your cocktail and quietly chatting with your friends? DON'T rent this dress! You will be the center of attention. Receiving complements left and right. This dress fit beautifully (with a pair of Spanx to hold in the problem areas). It hugs your whole body, which is hard to tell on the model in 2-D. It fits just like the model though, and with a 2-in heel it just grazed the floor. Definitely recommend a Long. I can't tell you how much I loved wearing this dress! I wanted to keep it!
