No electric
Maybe the electric was shot, or maybe it was meant to hang differently. But I could not wear it. Shame too because I was very excited about it.

Loved the material. Tight in bust
I would give 5 stars but the elastic in the 10 was shot. I'm a DD so the 8 didn't work in the bust. Beautiful dress and great customer service as always.

Did not get to wear dress. Tried to change date and received no help.
I rented this dress for my 40th birthday in Hawaii. The date for my party changed and I contacted RTR. I DID NOT receive a reply email even though the customer service rep told me I did. I have also not received emails from RTR in the past. The dress was shipped anyway. I had to turn around and return the dress without wearing. Customer service did not say anything about renting another dress. I wore an old dress instead. Very disappointed.

So tight in the chest.....
This dress was sent to me as an emergency back up when my chosen dress was not available. While I love Trina Turk, this dress did not work with my body type. The sash actually made my waist look bigger.

Tons of compliments. Told it was the best dress at the gala.
The large was not available at the last minute. I was very stressed but with some spanx it all worked out well. Actually easy to walk and sit in as well.

Made me have a waist!
Loved the fabric and the cut of the dress. Actually had room in the hips but obviously not in the bust. Did not need spanx but even if I had the lines would not have shown. And yes the pic is in the bathroom

Was so happy the 8 fit
Some other reviews said the lining hung lower than the lace. This was true of the 10 but not the 8. Very comfortable to wear. I paired with boots and pearls.

I loved opening all the boxes!
The dress is sheer. I am a curvy girl and probably should have worn a 12. I received many compliments on the outfit. Also rented necklace and earrings.
