Gorgeous dress for a wedding! Felt great all night

I loved this dress! I wore it as a bridesmaid in a friend's wedding and it couldn't have worked out better - very sophisticated, flattering cut and super comfortable for a long day of wearing it. One of the other bridesmaids also wore the same dress (see photo - I'm on the left, she's on the right) and it looked great on her, too. I chose a slightly looser fit by going with the 4R, though I could have worn the 2R; she also wore the 4R, which was slightly tighter for her. It looked great both ways :) and I wore a strapless bra which worked out fine. Highly recommend!

Super cute, fun outfit!

This was a fun jumpsuit - loved the color and fit. Was a little worried about the crotch being too high but it ended up being fine, and I was able to wear a regular bra with it, too. Ran true to size. Would recommend!

Pretty color for a fall wedding

I liked the material and color of this dress, and it worked well for a September wedding in New Hampshire. However, the fit up top was just a little weird - I don't think it was particularly flattering to my cleavage (I didn't wear a bra) and just felt awkward. It was a totally adequate dress but was not in love with it. I've rented better from RTR!

Beautiful, elegant dress - just bought it!

I loved this dress so much that I bought it on another site after wearing it. Loved the flow and the effortless elegance - it was the perfect choice for my engagement party on a rooftop terrace in NY. The Art Deco element was a beautiful touch. The R sizes weren't available so I got the 4P - worked for me because I don't like wearing high heels. I'm 5'7.5" and with ~2 inch heels it was very doable, just above the ground. (Though I bought the 4R for keeps...) Lovely dress , one of my RTR faves!

Beautiful color and material!

This was a beautiful dress that was perfect for a Labor Day black tie optional wedding. The green was beautiful and I got lots of compliments on the color, and loved the way the dress moved. A couple of things to consider: it's quite long. The 4R was doable with 2" heels (I'm 5'7 1/2") but when I took off my heels at the end of the night I was stepping all over the dress - it was really hard to dance. Also, the dress wasn't quite as slimming as it appeared on the models. However, still a beautiful dress and I had fun with it.

Lovely, elegant gown

Really loved this dress - elegant and perfect for a DC summer wedding. The asymmetrical hem was beautiful, and the top on the 4R fit snugly but was not too tight. The dress was ~1 inch above the ground in the back while wearing 2 inch heels, which was perfect (I'm 5' 7"). Loved the simple back as well! Oh, and the pockets were very handy - you couldn't see my phone at all! Highly recommend.

Not a flattering look

I did not end up wearing this dress to my event - it was just not a flattering color / fabric combo. The nude lace effect looked odd, as if I wasn't wearing something underneath the yellow, but obviously I was... it was just not a good look. The top also fit somewhat awkwardly. I've rented a lot of great dresses from RTR but this was not one of them!

Fun dress, wasn't able to wear

I ended up not going to the party where I was going to wear this dress, so sadly didn't get to see it in action. That said, it's very sexy, very form fitting, and fun. Interestingly, I am a 32C but even with a strapless bra, found that this dress did not really accentuate my cleavage (perhaps because it was so tight) - actually made me look rather flat chested. But the overall look was flattering. Would rent again if I had an appropriate event to where it to!

Unique & flattering dress - so fun!

I loved renting this dress - one of my favorites from RTR. Got so many compliments on it. I was a little dubious about the asymmetrical skirt but it ended up being incredibly flattering and fun. The 42 was a tad bit tight but ended up fitting, and I didn't wear a bra. Overall highly recommend!

Beautiful dress, very long!

This was a fun dress to rent for a May Cape Cod wedding, and bonus points for the length for keeping me warm when the wind blew. However... it was very long. I am 5'8" and wore the SR with 2" heels and it was still dragging on the ground a bit. Definitely not for short ladies and/or people who don't like wearing high heels! Otherwise, I liked the fit and flow - not my favorite RTR dress, but a solid choice.

Beautiful twirly dress! Though a little tight

This dress was beautiful and perfect for a June Napa wedding (especially given the heat!). Loved the color, print, and how twirly it was - looked great on the dance floor. However, it was super tight around the neck - I wore the Medium R, which I wasn't planning to do, and I still felt like I was being choked around the neck. It was probably slightly worse for me because I have a pretty muscular back / chest, but still... I don't see how this design would be comfortable on anyone. That said, was still a fun dress to rent! Definitely size up on this one to give yourself some extra breathing room.

Pretty dress!

This dress was understated and classy - really beautiful fit and flow. The top was snug enough that I didn't need to wear a bra, and didn't have too many problems with it slipping down during the evening. I rented a crystal necklace to wear with it but ended up wearing one of my own smaller necklaces because it wasn't a very fancy wedding and the necklace was a bit over-the-top. All in all, enjoyed the dress and would recommend!

Beautiful dress and perfect for an outdoor wedding!

I absolutely loved this dress - one of my all-time favorites. It fit perfectly, and was extremely flattering without being racy or overly revealing - just a classy cut. I loved the way the dress flowed in the breeze - perfect for a wedding in a vineyard. Got tons of compliments day-of and on the photos! Would highly, highly recommend. Note: wore a strapless bra, which worked well.

Felt like a movie star! Unbelievable dress

This was my first time using RTR, and honestly, I have been converted. This dress was absolutely stunning - when I read all the positive reviews I didn't think they could all be true, but they are. I got compliments literally all night long and many people came up to me to say they thought my dress was the best one there (at a 1700-person event). I got the 2R and 4R and didn't even try on the 4, the 2 fit so well. I do wish I had gotten the 2L to try on... the 2R was a little short wearing 2-3 inch heels but it also made it easier to dance, so it worked out okay. I had gotten a stick-on bra to wear but my normal strapless bra ended up being fine - the back was low enough not to show. In sum, this dress is AMAZING and you should rent it!
