perfect wedding dress for beginning of 2nd trimester. had enough stretch that I was comfortable and felt beautiful. I normally am a 0/2 / S/XS and ordered this in a 2R.

beautiful color and fabric but doesn't have enough give in the waist/bust area to wear in 3rd trimester. I normally am a 0/2 / S/XS and ordered this in a 8R.

ultimate party jacket
Loving this jacket for everything parties over the holidays. Tons of complements and the right way to spice up an outfit. The only thing I don't like is that it's tight around my shoulders and no stretch so this can be a little uncomfortable.

Showstopper
Almost a perfect 5 out of 5 for this dress except for the sleeves were extremely tight around the end of the sleeve. Very uncomfortable and I don't think I have larger than normal arms. Double sided tape doesn't stick to this fabric, so don't count on that like I did. Overall, very fun dress to wear out!

Glam and elegant
I probably should have chosen this dress to wear vs. the bright pink off the shoulder dress, because I would've been able to dance freely! I was very torn between the two and almost chose this dress, but I opted for a brighter colored dress to be more lively. That being said, I really have no complaints and only complements for this ML dress. Amazing fit and quality. Sequins catch the light beautifully and don't look cheap. Perfect length (5'3" w/ 4.5" heels).

Elegant and fun
I loved this dress' color, fabric and fit. The design of the dress stayed in place for the most part and was very comfortable. I wouldn't order this off the should style again though (at least not at a party where I'll be dancing), because I couldn't move freely to dance. My arms were basically bound in place with the dress. But the dress looked damn good just standing there ;)

runs REALLY small
This dress was my favorite of the 3 I chose and I knew it ran small, but I didn't know it ran THAT small. I had to leave the dress at the store and swap it out. BEAUTIFUL dress and I should've ordered one size it. It's designed to be very fitted and sexy. Definitely recommend, but order up. I ordered a 0R. Additionally the length was a little short for me, I'm 5'3" and had 4.5" heels on to give you a reference.

perfect race day outfit
LOVED the dress for a day at the horse races, perfect fit, length and bright color. Texture/quality of fabric is great. If it isn't a great fit on you, it may be a little tricky, because the fabric doesn't stretch. Luckily, the cut was just right and I didn't need the stretch to "give" in certain areas.

Dramatic
This dress is fun, sexy and comfortable. It runs big is the only reason why I don't give it a 5 star. The deep neckline and low back is sexy and dramatic. The pleating in the front is well done, adds pretty detail and the whole front sits nicely (the pleating doesn't sit in a bulky, unflattering way). The belly/hips part of the dress was a little big or maybe it's just designed to not be too fitted. Either way, could've done with a little more "fitted-ness" through this area. This dress makes you keep great posture (shoulders up and back) to keep the front from revealing too much "side boob" ;) Use some tape or sticky cups to add shape if you are comfortable doing so. I can't imagine a real bra that would work with this dress.

romantic
Loved this dress, probably one of my fav RTR rentals. beautiful fabric texture and the way it flows. The print looks so quality like it was literally watercolored on the dress. I got so many complements, which was tough to do at a nepali black tie wedding... there were the most beautiful, ornate saris. Not bragging, just happy I could feel as pretty as the rest there :)

Beautiful color!
Low and tight fitting in the bust for a 32D and a little loose in the hips. Very long for being 5'3" and in 5" heels. Beautiful dress and well made, but not the best fit for me. I wouldn't order again for myself.

Loved this dress for my work Christmas party!
great length for me being 5'3" at a company holiday dinner. everything fit just right and I got so many compliments. it's very bright and I was a little worried, but wound up loving the sequins. it's got a dark/black underlay so the bright gold sequins are balanced with the dark fabric underneath.

Stunning but runs big ;(
Wore to a black tie gala and would have loved it had the sizing been more consistent to a typical 0 petite. Very bummed I was pulling it up all night; no one looks cute adjusting their dress all night. AND too long for me (5'3" w/ 6" heels). near miss of being the perfect dress for my night.

It covers your initial cost in most cases for shipping and insurance. A no brainer for me to buy the RTR Pro for the year.

Beautiful colors and texture!
The fit was a little snug, but looked fine. I was probably between and 0 and 2, but the 2 wasn't available. I got tons of complements, and the color is great for blondes. This great is very short, and I am petite / 5'3". If you're taller and conservative, probably not the dress for you. All in all, very happy with my pick for my birthday dinner :)

It's an amazing blue and fun textures!
The fit was good. The zipper got stuck a little. The waist was a little loose, but the rest fit great. One of the sleeves rolled up a little bit, but I think I'm the only one that would've noticed. The dress is very short, and I am petite! If you're taller than 5'3", think twice...not for the conservatives or 'meeting the BF's parents' for the first time. I would rent it again for the right occasion, beautiful color and fun textures.
