I rented this dress for a summer wedding in California and I knew the minute I opened my package that it was gonna look AMAZING! I got a 0 and 2 and went with the 0, as it was a better fit (even a little, comfortably snug), and the seam on the waist for the 2 would have been quite lower and wider than I would've liked. I opted to wear it as the single strap which elevated the look so much, as it was more flattering in my (smaller) chest area, but draped so elegantly! The length was perfect, the color was perfect and as soon as we arrived at the reception, everyone was asking me where I got my dress from! I wish I owned this dress, it's such a show-stopping, luxe, unique look! I would 110% recommend renting this dress for your next formal event!

I wore this dress in June to celebrate my birthday night out, looking for something fun and easy to dance in. This dress was definitely fun, with the black and gold sequins and the intricate design. However, the reason I only gave it 3 stars is because for me, the silhouette was not as flattering as I would have hoped. For a shift, I would have preferred it to be little slimmer, especially near the hemline and a little shorter. Also, the material with the sequins (especially around the arms and the neckline) irritated my skin a little bit, so I was not entirely keen on that. Overall, a fun dress to go out in, probably more appropriate for New Year's Eve, but I don't know if I would rent this again.

I got this dress as a last-minute backup with the help of my RTR stylist after my original dress (the Tracy Reese Charmed by You Dress) did not turn out the way I had hoped. Thank goodness it didn't, because when I opened the box and saw this dress, I was completely blown away! There's a reason this dress has 4.5 stars after 171 reviews; it has everything you're looking for in a classy, sleek, one-of-a-kind dress! The crochet detailing of the dress is beautiful and really unique, the color is a really nice navy blue, the silhouette hugs your curves in an extremely flattering way, and the cut (right above my knee) was perfect for a summer wedding in New England. I got compliments on the dress all night, and even to this day, as people see pictures from the wedding that I posted. This dress is an absolute MUST for short, petite girls like myself looking for the perfect wedding guest dress! I paired this with the Badgley Mischka Blue Ice Crystal Earrings and they were perfect! Do yourself a huge favor and RENT THIS DRESS!

I actually really loved wearing this dress to a sunny SoCal wedding! It was sexy with a low-back but classy and I definitely felt like I stood out among the other wedding guests with the color of the dress. However, some things I would point out: the material, like many people have said, is on the thin side, so while this was perfect for a sweltering hot San Diego day, it did get a bit chilly as the night wore on. Secondly, while I did try on the 0 and found that there was a lot of extra space in the shoulders and in the back, the length on the 0 was better on me than the 00. I found myself having to pull the dress down several times throughout the night, as dancing and the material cause the hem to ride up dangerously; thankfully, I was wearing my trust Spanky-pants! But overall, gorgeous dress! I felt super glamorous and would recommend it to all petite girls out there for their special occasions!

I always have a difficult time finding dresses that flatter or even fit my body type! I'm short and petite and don't want to shop in the teens section anymore! So when I received this dress, I was a little hesitant to begin with because even though it was an XS, there was definitely still a little extra give in the midsection. The bust was also fitted in a way that flattened the area out, making my chest look even smaller than it really is. However, I thought the material and the length were appropriate for a black-tie optional wedding in Atlanta, and I LOVED the color -- I definitely stood out among the sea of black dresses. Overall, it was a great dress, not one of my favorites, but definitely suitable for the occasion.

For a Las Vegas wedding on Valentine's Day, I had this dress overnighted after I received my original dress (the Nha Khanh Red Lace Dalia Dress in size 0) and it fit WAY too large on me. I was really worried I wouldn't find a dress last minute, but I am SO HAPPY I found this RVN because, in person, it's stunning and the fit is absolutely incredible - hugs every curve, made me look taller than my 5'3" and complemented my new short hairdo! The design and details are so unique and were perfect for the occasion (and did I mention extremely comfortable to wear?)! And, as many have mentioned, the material is thick, like a sweater, which certainly worked out in my favor, as the wedding turned out to be outdoors with the early evening, Vegas chill. I've received SO many compliments on this dress and really felt beautiful in it. I would definitely recommend it to all the petite girls out there that, like me, seem to always have a hard time finding a dress that actually fits. With the help of the RTR stylist over the phone, I paired this dress with the Cara Accessories Gold Dress Me Up Bracelet (which I also loved!) and the Ben-Amun Theodora Empress Earrings for what turned out to be a last minute knock-out outfit! Words can't express how sad I was to have to ship this outfit back, but I'm sure another lucky girl out there will benefit from wearing this amazing dress! Thanks for a great first RTR and RVN experience! It definitely won't be my last!
