Pretty detailing!
Overall this is a very versatile and classy choice for a variety of events. I wore this to a ladies charity luncheon. I don't think the photos do the detailing on the dress justice as it is quite pretty and unique. It is very comfortable to wear and flattering as well. Wish I owned this dress!

Eye catching, vibrant, unique dress!
Heavy scuba like fabric (think Clover Canyon) but not form fitted in the skirt. Lots of stretch and comfortable. Length of the skirt is significantly longer than it appears on the model, but I think its nicer looking that way since the skirt flares out. Print is very vibrant and pretty. A good solid choice I enjoyed wearing.

Classy, flowy and easy to wear elegant dress!
Very elegant, easy to wear, classy dress. I wore this to a baby shower and it was lovely. I had a very thin strap sports bra that actually worked perfectly with the dress since the cut curves in toward the neck. Wish I owned this dress! The graduated skirt in the back is very subtle but nice.

Pretty shade of white and quality heavy fabric
I did not end up wearing this dress as it has a very strange dropped waist and it looked positively awful on me. I read other reviews that mentioned this dropped waist before I rented the dress and still went ahead figuring the dress was stretchy and how bad could it really be? Well let me tell you this dress is just not cut for girls with an hourglass figure. It just makes your hips look strange and your midsection look terrible. Other than that, I think the dress runs true to size and was made of a nice, heavy and quality feeling fabric.

Couture, unique stand out in the crowd dress!
I rented this dress to host a fashion show fundraiser and it is one of my favorite RTR rentals. It is extremely comfortable to wear and even has pockets. It covers you in all the right spots yet is flattering and fun. The baroque fabric is very beautiful. A winner in all ways!

A standout in the crowd unique gown!
I love the fact that this gown is high/lo which makes it fun so you can show off your shoes. The one complaint while wearing the gown was that the tulle under the skirt kept getting caught underneath my high heel and that was a pain. The details on the top were pretty, although much more brassy gold than I thought. Overall, a classy, elegant choice.

Very classy and elegant dress!
I rented this dress for a garden party charity luncheon and it was perfect. It is does run slightly small and I wish I rented one size up, but it was still ok. I was a little disappointed that some of the lace seemed to be fraying, but it wasn't bad enough to prevent me from wearing it. Overall, a classic choice you can't go wrong with!

Pretty color, but didn't end up wearing the dress
I think is color is nice on this dress but that's about it. I didn't end up wearing it because I didn't think it was special enough for the event I was attending. The tulle edges were extremely flat and just hung down and the dress is much longer than I thought based on the photos. It is really an unflattering length in my opinion being neither short nor long. There was nothing flattering to my figure when wearing this dress as it gave me no shape. Probably one of my least favorite RTR rentals.

Super cute and flirty party dress!
This dress is very cute, classy, girly, flirty and sexy all at the same time. I was told I looked like Barbie in it and got many other compliments. It is just the right length and the cut out in the back is positioned correctly so you can wear a normal bra which is a big plus in my book for comfort.

Unique design, elegant gown
This gown is very classy and elegant. I wouldn't call it sexy, but it is still flattering but on the conservative side. It is very unique and I got many compliments on it. True to size and comfortable to wear. I rented the long because that's all that was available. It was ok for me, although the regular would probably have been better.

Photos came out well despite the extremely small size of the dress!
I rented this gown to take some family photos in a natural light studio. The photos came out well and the dress served its purpose, however please be warned, this dress runs EXTREMELY small. I read the reviews that said to size up and I did, and that was still not enough. I usually wear a size 2 or 4, I rented a 6 and I could have easily used an 8 or a 10 in this dress. The lining underneath was so tight and short that I could not have worn this dress out to an event. I also don't think it is as pretty as in the photos because the tulle was much flatter than it appears and even with ruffling and fluffing didn't fill out that much.

Gorgeous, lux details & completely unique!
I love Marchesa Notte and have rented many of their dresses. They consistently run true to size. I loved everything about this dress, however it is much darker than in the photo. I actually thought the dress had a white underlay and it is definitely a darker ecru ivory color and couldn't be considered white at all in my opinion. The details on the collar are a light blue which I think is super cool and unique. A complete standout in every way!

Classy, romantic yet sexy dress all at the same time!
I loved that this dress covered in all the right places i.e. bust, stomach, rear and allowed me to be comfortable all night. Despite being covered in a good way, the dress is very flattering, unique and classy. A good solid pick for a formal event or party for sure!

Super comfortable, flattering, pretty and well made dress!
Loved the pockets and loops over the shoulder to help hold back bra straps. Dress ran true to size and fit perfectly. Easy to dress up or down. Versatile piece. Fun to accessorize because of all the great colors in the dress...you could go so many directions with it!

Pretty, easy to wear dress!
Colors are vibrant and fabric is beautiful. The reason for three stars is because the top of the dress (the only fitted part) is very small and rode up under my arms. It also completely flattened out my chest and was constricting. I wore the same size in another Missoni dress and it was fine, so I would say this style runs small. It is a nice dress overall, but doesn't give you any sort of sexy shape if that is what you are looking for.

Nice statement accessory!
Although they were larger than I expected, the earrings and colors are quite pretty and overall they are an excellent accessory! They are not too sparkly to make them gaudy, but have enough bling to make them standout and look classy at the same time.

Quality, classy, versatile dress!
Easy stretch material that highlights curves, yet not too clingy. Flattery and sexy, yet at the same time covered up enough to wear to a more conservative event. Can easily dress this piece up or down and good for a variety of occasions! Wish I owned the piece because I would get a ton of use out of it!

Classic pretty choice that was easy to accessorize!
Very pretty with gold and white ocean themed jewelry for destination wedding welcome reception. The reason I am giving it 4 stars is because I thought the top totally took away all my shape (I have a decent bust size for my dress size) and the top also puckered a little funny in the bust area. It was not enough to keep me from enjoying the dress and looking pretty, but reason enough not to award 5 stars.
