Nothing thrilling
I rented but didn't wear for 2 reasons: 1. the shoulder straps were definitely too long 2. the bust area was over-sized for the dress, causing the V-shaped neckline boning to roll and show my Nu-Bra. This is a nice quality dress with a good amount of give. If you're looking for a sexy-type dress with a forgiving silhouette, I would recommend this dress. I would also recommend sizing down, for sure.

Would not recommend
I rented this for a summer wedding and didn't realize it was velvet. Also, rented way too small b/c that was all that was avail. I think this dress might be a good choice for mid-fall weather. I did try it on and I would say that the "bra cups" of the bustier portion are very small in relation to the dress over all. If you have a larger bust, I would not recommend this dress. Also, many reviews said the straps were adjustable - but they are not.

Berry beautiful!
Such a cheesy title but really, this dress is a winner for summer events! I did not end up wearing. It is a snug fit and the heat on my event day made it impossible to squeeze into. That said, it DID fit for my try-on and I would have worn my Nu-Bra. I would suggest against wearing too many undergarments with this style. The shoulder design is great and unique, but be aware that the shoulder doesn't provide any support for the bust area. The material has a little bit of give that helps with shaping, for sure. If you're on the fence, size up. The color is beautiful raspberry esp. for pale skin like myself. Will rent again!

Young, fresh, chic!
This was a great rental! Wore a strapless bra which helped accentuate my figure up top since there really isn't any "cleavage" to add dimension. The skirt is roomy but structured and has a cute lace detail along the bottom hem of the lining. I worried this dress would be restrictive with the neckpiece but it is anything but that. Has a little stretch and the material is cut so that it stops just short of covering the shoulders - it would be great for anyone worried about broad shoulders. The dress never wrinkled (even in 105 degree wedding!), and has a beautiful subtle golden iridescence. Perfect colors for spring through fall!

Very classy material, super flirty style and cut
This dress fit so tightly around the hips and thigh area I was only able to get it on for a photo. Could not walk in it. I wanted to wear this dress so badly esp. when I took it out of the bag. The fabric is lined, the lace is embroidered intricately which gives it class. The dress is not lightweight but the caging on midriff gave it breathability. Truly constructed for the hourglass figure. I would recommend if that is you.

Classy!
It was a nice dress that is unique. You CANNOT wear any ok d of bra. I tried the sticky kind and really, it all depends on your posture. You just stand very straight for the dress to sit well. Prob best for girls with smaller bust.

Cute but not great
This is a great dress for a younger person. The fabric was nice (silk skirt), but there was *no give whatsoever. I wouldn't recommend to those with wider hips.

Surprisingly a winner. A super easy Herme, you'll look slick without trying to hard - no Spanxs or sexy Shoes. A pair of earrings or a special piece you love would make this amazing's amazing it's a beautiful dress.

My Classy 30th
Dress *did have stretch. Beautiful color dark in dark atmospheres,etc. those sticky bras made it look worse. Long enough to look sexy but classy.

Great classy and chunky!
This was a great necklace to add a statement to a more plain dress. Price was on point. I would spend more to buy and have because it's pretty versatile. Will re rent.

Great alternative to LBD!
This dress is classy because it hit me right above the knee and my boyfriend loved the cutout! I have a small rib cage and wide hips so the 2 was perfect. Was comfortable but would warn those trouble underarm areas that it does not hide this. It was a struggle to get on and zip and I had to wear a strapless because my chest is a little bit larger (without a bra it 'squished' my busy downward). Otherwise, it'd be a five star!

RTR sent me this in place of an unavail dress I ordered. They were great in helping me last minute.
This dress is elegant and glitters beautifully at night. I wore a small that was comfortable but it sure is cut low! I have a larger bust and didn't feel comfortable with the degree of front exposure (maybe it's more tasteful on a smaller bust?) Easy fix: I wore a strapless bra and stretchy black tube too underneath so I could adjust the cleavage. It's lined so it was warm but short. I felt pretty all night!

Really classy dress. Sophisticated sexy.
I rented this for an engagement party and found that it was beautiful in person. Unfortunately only size available was a small. Other posts are correct it's very difficult to get your arms through as there is no give to the material. Since it's got an open back I probably would've benefited getting the medium. I could make it fit but didn't end up wearing it. The open back design is stunning however. I will rent it again when my size is available! Not too short and very comfortable besides the tiny sleeves!

Very classy with a twist in design
The 2nd piece actually goes behind the ear and swing in front. It's something new Ive never seen. The earrings are nice because they're not too loud and can compliment a lot of different dresses. Don't look like some rhinestone ones that can look fake-cheap. I'll rent them again!

Simply elegant but not too formal
These are fun earrings but I would recommend wearing with hair up. The jewels are clear and they could add a unique pop to a plain outfit.

So easy to be glamorous!
I was worried that this dress wouldn't fit, based on the previous comments. I usually wear a 4/6 and ordered a 4 and 2(because of other reviews). THe size 2 was perfect. It swooshed when I walked and I looked so elegant - my heels were about 3". And, it wasnt so tight that I couldn't eat. Only thing I would say to consider is the shoulder straps. They were just barely too big on me but I was fine if I made sure the dress laid flat and straight. Really no hassle. These guys are great!
