VERY heavy
This dress is VERY heavy. It almost felt like a weighted blanket. The sequins are very dense and scratched under my arms. The dress ended up being too dressy for the event I was attending and I ordered replacements, but that did not work out either! This would be perfect for New Year's Eve!

Corporate banquet in Hawaii
I wore this to a corporate banquet in Maui. It was very comfortable and draped beautifully. The wrap style is flattering and forgiving. The V neck in the front is quite low, so be prepared to pin it or tape it. The straps in the back are wider than an average bra and I needed to use "boob tape" for support. The straps also slid a bit towards the shoulders, but this was not a big problem. The colors were beautiful and muted. I felt very good in this dress.

Did not wear, but nice!
This was a beautiful dress, but it was very heavy to wear during the summer. It also did very little for my sheep in that hung straight and didn’t nip in at the waist. It would be perfect for a winter event.

Stunning!!
This was a replacement dress for a dress that arrived damaged. It was amazing! I got compliments all night and felt incredibly comfortable. I tucked the straps in because they were awkward and annoying. Would definitely rest again!!

Flowy and beautiful!!
I wore this dress to an anniversary party. It was absolutely beautiful and flattering. You will need a strapless bra or boob tape, but other than that it is a very comfortable dress and very flattering.

Fabric was odd
This fabric on this dress is very odd. It was far shinier than I thought I would be and was not something that I wore. It was sent as a replacement, and I did find a better dress.

Stunning!
I got this dress as a last minute replacement for a defective dress. I wore this to my daughter's bridal shower and felt wonderful in it. It allowed me to move around and draped beautifully. I received many compliments!

Beautiful fit!
This dress was very flattering. I usually wear a size 10 in dresses, and the 10 fit well, but the front (v-neck) portion of the dress was a bit too low. The size 12 was able to be pinned together for a more presentable look. The fabric of this dress was comfortable and did not wrinkle easily. I received many compliments and felt great wearing it.

Vibrant lace
I ended up not wearing this dress for the event. The lace in the picture looks like a deep burgundy, however, in person, it was more of a vibrant fuchsia. I am very happy that I rented another dress to wear because this would not have been a good choice.

Perfect dress
I bought this dress from a RTR clearance sale. I have worn this dress many times for various occasions and have received numerous compliments. The dress pattern contains great colors that allow it to look different each time I wear it. Definitely a good choice!

Fun and flirty!!
This was a perfect dress for a summer wedding. The print is quite lovely and different and allowed me to pull from it for statement earrings, nail color, and shoes. It was immensely comfortable and flowed beautifully. I received many compliments on this dress and will definitely look to rent it again.

Classy jumpsuit!
I really loved the way this jumpsuit looked on me. It was very slimming, comfortable, and was long enough for my tall frame. The lace on the bodice was beautiful and of excellent quality. A few detractions.....the zipper up the back was difficult to move up and down without assistance as the lace got stuck in the teeth. My husband needed to accompany me to the bathroom to help me get the zipper up and down. The front was extremely low cut and necessitated the need for an insert or a camisole. In addition, the belt that was included with the jumpsuit was ok, but could have been a bit more fashion-forward.

Beautiful, classy and comfortable!
This dress was amazing! It was flowy and comfortable, draping gracefully in all the right places. The v-neck is very deep and I did have to wear a lacy camisole to make it suitable. The ties on the sleeves were very long and got caught on things. I got so many compliments on this dress! I loved wearing it!

An unforgettable dress!
I chose this dress To wear to a work function for my husband. I did not want to look too flashy but didn't want to look too plain and I know that this particular designer makes dresses that look great on me. It was beautiful and did not need to be accessorized or overly adorned. Women I did not even know came up to me to tell me how beautiful the dress was. The only issue I had was that the lining hung down beyond the hem of the dress making it look a little cheap. It was also difficult to zipper and has absolutely no give, but is beautifully made!

This was an upscale wedding, and I felt like a million bucks in the dress!
The size I ordered was snug and torn in a few places. I went up a size in order to feel comfortable and in order to dance. The dress was fantastic. It draped my body very well, and was exactly what I wanted for the event. This is my first rental, but it will certainly not be my last!!! The pictures do not do the dress justice!
