The back is everything!
The open back really makes this textured sweater dress truly distinctive. I received tons of compliments at a holiday party (and loved the dress so much, I wore it to dinner in another part of the city the next night!) As other reviewers noted, you’ll need pasties as you cannot wear a bra.

Unique maxi
Super unique and fun maxi dress! It does take some concentration (and help!) getting into the dress which is three connected pieces. Fabric is soft and the fit is flattering!

Super cute sequins
Wore this to a Valentine’s Day party. Loved the unique pink/red design, which made it different and fun. I sized up to a medium to feel more comfortable. I’m 5’7” and it was pretty short on me (I stood most the night!) I’d say if you are much taller, this will be uncomfortably short.

Different kind of bling!
Loved that the flip sequins went from gold to a purple hued-snakeskin for a form fitting and different look! I usually wear a small, but it felt a tiny bit snug and the medium was a bit more comfortable to sit in all night. I would recommend sizing up, at least for your back up dress to give yourself options. With the price point, long sleeves and flip sequins, this one if a winner!

Tuxedo jacket as dress! Love it!
Absolutely loved this fitted tuxedo jacket as a dress! It is short, so wearing tights is a must, so that it doesn't look like I left the house with only a jacket and no pants! The result was comfy and super sexy! Love it and received so many compliments!

Casino night classic
I rented this for a casino night fundraiser and it was perfect! It runs small, so the large fit more comfortably than the medium. I expected the sequins on the arms to rub, but it wasn't that bad. I felt like a million bucks and received a ton of compliments. It's a winner!

Not your average LBD!
I wore this for my 40th birthday party and it was absolutely amazing! Since it was in December, I needed a little black dress which was warm and the leather was perfect. The detailing was unique and it fit like a glove! Perfect!

Fashion Show Standout
Absolutely loved this dress! I wore this to a fashion show and the detail made it a stand out! It fit like a glove in the bodice with a little flair in the skirt. I would recommend if you rent this dress, that you consider steaming before wearing, since the netting ends up a little wrinkled in transit. It's helps the embroidery lay flat.

Pop of color!
Loved the magenta color and the lace, which made the dress unique, but appropriate for a Temple gala. As the other reviewers noted, the sleeves are a little snug; especially if you have an athletic build. The end of the sleeve hit right below my elbow, but by pushing them up slightly, the dress was comfortable all night.

Perfect Derby Dress
I wore this to a Derby themed fundraiser and it was a huge hit. The dress runs larger, so I went down a size and it fit great! The full skirt was fun and loved the pockets!

Bunmed it didn't work out
This dress is beautiful! Loved the winter white with the detailed sleeves. I was super bummed it didn't work out. The dress was too tight across my back and rib cage. Even though the rest of the dress fit, I probably needed to at least try one size up. Just a heads up for the athletic girls!

Superdress!
I've had my eye on this cape dress and it did not disappoint! Great twist on the LBD and the cape was a unique feature. It also make it possible to wear on a cold day.

Sequins stunner!
This dress is GORGEOUS! I received so many compliments all night long. I recommend if you are taller to rent to long version of this dress. I'm 5'7" and I wore 3" nude heels. So happy with this gown!

Unique cutouts, but the dress runs small
I loved the color and the cut outs, but the dress ran too small for me. I usually wear a 4 or 6, but neither of those sizes fit as the dress was tight across my bottom. I probably needed an 8 in this style. Consider sizing up 1-2 sizes.

Cute twist on the LBD!
I rented this for my high school reunion, which was held at a bar, so I wanted something cute, but not too formal. I loved the updated twist on the LBD. The dress is well made and lined at the bottom under the ruffle. I loved the cut at the top, which allowed me to wear a racerback bra. That said, by the end of the night, the top part of the dress felt a little tight. Overall, very happy with the dress!

Cute, but way too short
This dress was super cute, but way too short. I'm 5'7" and it barely covered my bottom. I tried both the 4 and the 6 - both were unwearable because of the short length. If the dress had been a few inches longer, I would have worn it!

Figure flattering
This was a figure flattering, body hugging dress with a longer length, making it an updated look for event without being too revealing. The fabric is pretty thick and "hugged" my curves. I wore a regular bra with straps which were wider so they didn't show through the cut outs.

Nice touch to an embellished dress
RTR sent me these complementary (so nice!) to go with an embellished Badgley Mischka Eyes of Gold dress which was black and gold sequins. They were perfect to complete the look without competing with the dress.

Too tight around the neck
I got this as a back up dress for a cocktail party and fundraiser. It is a very tight fit, but the deal breaker for me, was the tight fit around the neck. I couldn't wait to get it off. Thankfully, my original dress plan worked out perfectly.

Knockout Dress!
This dress is gorgeous! The fit is fabulous and the design detail is incredible. I received compliments all night long. The open back is very unique and the length was perfect for a cocktail party. I wore stick on cups though I suppose you could go without a bra. I highly recommend this dress!

This dress is a showstopper!
I absolutely loved this dress and felt fabulous in it! It is beautifully made and hung perfectly in the back without falling off my shoulders. The dress is stretchy, hit me mid-thigh and was comfortable to sit in. The only downside, which I didn't realize until I took it off, was that my collarbone was a little bit chaffed from the sequins rubbing. I wore this to a casino night fundraiser and would highly recommend it!
