Did not wear
The romper was just way too short for my 5'9 self. It felt like my butt cheeks were on display. Also, like other reviewers have said, it was a very boxy cut. Definitely would have needed some sort of belt if I wore it, which I did not.

Super Comfortable
I rented this dress in both sizes 8 and 10 - the 8 fit but was tight in the rib cage and then 10 was too loose in the chest, but not loose enough where you'd see my bra- so I ended up wearing the 10 as it was more comfortable. Note: the dress gets super wrinkly, so have a steamer nearby before you wear it. All in all, I really loved this dress, and would rent again.

horrible
This dress emphasized my stomach in all the wrong ways. It made me look incredibly hippy, and awful. returned immediately.

Awful
It makes me so sad that there are so many amazing reviews for this dress, because for me it just did not work. First, the material on the photo makes it look super thick and heavy, when in fact, it was kind of a wrinkly thin material. I can't even describe it. Second, the dress just fit all wrong - I'm 5'9, 36C, pretty solid size 8. I couldn't even zip up the 10. I don't understand how it went so wrong. I sent this dress back immediately.

Perfect for Mexico beach wedding
I ordered this dress as a back up when my original dress became unavailable, and I was a little nervous since I am not usually comfortable showing off my chest. This dress was perfect. It was very true to size (maybe a little tight around my ribs, so if you have a larger rib cage maybe get a size up as your backup). As for the chest area, it fit great, and was super comfortable, no bra needed. My boobs kind of popped out the bottom since the material was a little loose, but nothing double sided tape couldn't fix. Definitely rent this dress for your next vacation/beach wedding.

Very Carrie Bradshaw-esque
The second I put this dress on I knew I would be buying it when RTR puts it on sale. It's amazing. It definitely runs small- I couldn't even zip up my usual size 8. The dress was tight around the base of my ribs, but not uncomfortable tight (although it did feel amazing to undo at the end of the night). As other reviewers have said, the top definitely is better fit for someone with a longer torso, and did flair out a little bit, and had some extra room in my armpits/side boob area, but it didn't look bad. I did not wear a bra with the dress, but there was definitely room for a sticky bra if you feel like you want one. All in all, this dress has quickly become my favorite rental. I received compliments all night, and truly felt beautiful.

Super cute, not at all heavy
These earring were perfect. They kind of reminded me of something I'd find in my grandmas jewelry box, and I loved them for that. They were really light weight and didn't tug on my ears at all. Will definitely rent again for future events!

Super well made, incredibly big
This dress is gorgeous, let's get that out of the way. It is incredibly well made, wasn't itchy, kind of heavy but not in a bad way. BUT ITS HUGE. I am normally a size 8 and I wore the 6. I probably could have even done with a 4-- although it may have then been too short. I'm 5'9 and it was definitely on the shorter side, and since it's super flowy, and great for spinning, I may have given wedding guests a little more than they bargained for. So something to keep in mind for other tall girls! It was also a little boxy- which I was fine with, but this dress is definitely not for those who wan to show any form of their figure. All in all I probably wouldn't rent this one again, but I'm glad I did just the once since it is a very beautiful dress.

Perfect Dazzlers
The earrings were an add on at the last minute, and I'm glad I added them. They were super light weight and didn't weigh my ears down at all. They also weren't too large, but they were big enough that you could clearly tell what they were. I loved these earrings.

Typical Leather Jacket
My biggest issue with this jacket was the belt buckle - it clanked and clanged every time I moved, so people definitely heard when I was coming. It was not super light weight but not heavy either - it was a little too warm for the start of my evening (at around 70*), but as the evening got cooler it was perfect.

Great dress, everyone loved it.
I wore this dress for my bridal shower, and it was perfect for a cold March day. Some of the reviews said to size down, and I received the 40 (my size) and a 38 as the back up. While the 38 did fit, the zipper got stuck (not for lack of room), so it ended up not working. The 40 was perfect tho, and was super comfortable. I didn't need a bra with it, but I wore one for some extra support. I'm 5'9 and the dress hit right at my calves. It was the perfect length. The color was also great, super pale pink. An added bonus is that I accidentally spilled some bbq sauce on me, and it came off no problem. This fabric is really stain resistant, so don't be scared to enjoy your time while wearing it! Everyone commented on how much they loved the dress and told me that I absolutely had to buy it when it goes on sale off RTR. It definitely is one of my more favorite rentals.

Great dress for New Years Eve
This is a great dress, and the fit was beautiful. I am normally a size 8 in everything, and I ended up wearing the 10 in this- it's an incredibly short dress for someone who's taller, like I am (5'8), almost to the point where I would have been uncomfortable if I wasn't wearing tights underneath. Just something to keep in mind! I ended up not needing to wear a bra with this dress, the material was nice and thick, and it was tighter up top so the girls didn't move around. Definitely a great dress for a night out!

So many compliments
First things first- this dress did not come with the slip underneath. Neither did the backup size. Because of this, I had to run out last minute to buy a slip. I actually ended up pairing the dress with a black slip instead of the nude one, I just felt it paired better. As for the actual dress, I am a pretty solid 8 in everything I wear. The 6 definitely fit, but I felt it emphasized my hips a little more than I liked, so I went with the 8. That being said, I *could* slip it on and off without unzipping the dress, but I was more comfortable with it overall. I received tons of compliments all night, and absolutely loved the dress. It was a great length, although when I did twirl on the dance floor it did come up a little. It was incredible comfortable, and great for a July Southern California wedding. Definitely rent this dress, you will be happy you did.
