A lil tight but do able
Got this as a fun work dress. Worked very well for an after work event too. A lil tight around the bust but works!

WOW what a dress - fits all shapes and sizes!
This was the first dress I've seen where there were so many women who are more of my shape who posted photo reviews sharing how beautiful they felt in this dress and they are not wrong! If you're thin or curvy, more busty or not, somehow this dress still works and you look FABULOUS! I'm busty and was so able to rock this dress - bought one of those straps on amazon that converts your regular bra to a low back bra. Winning combo!

Beautiful dress but runs small
The dress is even more gorgeous in person. However, it runs very small and so I couldn't get it zipped up and couldn't wear it. Recommend sizing up! Also the regular length is quite short so go with the tall if you can.

Fun work dress
Fits true to size and the flare is forgiving if you've got a bit of a belly. But if you have any bust at all, the deep cut in front makes this veer on the side of inappropriate for work. I ended up having to cover up with a scarf although. Which is a shame because the dress and the collar is gorgeous.

Great work to evening dress
The fit was perfect and the weight of the fabric is perfect for colder weather - without being too heavy that you're sweaty. The cut is a great shift dress and the cutouts on the top are stylish but also modest. Great all around.

Might rent this more often. Fits very well, comfortable fabric that is very forgiving. Work appropriate length as well.

I wanted to like this dress
Dress fit too awkwardly. Too right across the top and then baggy the rest of the way down.

Great piece for work. It's more of a summer item because it's a light fabric but I work light stockings and it still worked. True to size.

A hit!
This dress fits great and looks amazing. I've rented it twice for wedding and got so many compliments. If you have a larger bust like myself this dress still looks great and is fitted in all the right places. Plus the capelet is such a HIT. Very stylish.

Fun sweater
Fun sweater. I got lots of compliments at work because it shimmers a bit in person - delightful! It can be a bit short so if you have a bust, a tank underneath will help with the annoyance of it riding up throughout the day.

Fit perfectly. Work appropriate length and not too tight. The color was also very nice and easy to match with.

The fit is great especially if you are tall like myself and have a larger bust area - it is structured just right (thank goodness!)

Does the job...but not as vivid in person
Very nice dress. But in person...it wasn't as eye catching as I thought it would be. It fits well though and has pockets. Win!

Very pretty dress in person
This dress is very pretty in person. The photo doesn't quite do it justice. But the fit is off... if you've got a longer torso this may not work. It starts to flare out right under the bust which makes this look like a maternity dress which is fine, if that's the look you're going for. Yet another dress that may not work best for the curvy ladies.

Don't try it if you have a bust
I really should have known better. This dress doesn't work if you have a full bust. It basically looks like an ill fitting shirt when I tried to get it on...not a dress. For the all around slender crew, this is the dress for you. It's very pretty...just not for women with curves.

These are quite big. I'm sure they'd look good on someone else - I just couldn't carry them. But they are very pretty!

Very BLINGY!
This is a necklace for the ladies who love bling! I got this as a surprise with a dress I rented and while it looks great online (and also in person, don't get me wrong) it was just too much for me to wear. It kinda almost felt like a chest plate - but then again I am not someone who wears jewelry normally. So if you love to accessorize, this surely will not disappoint!

Tried and True.
If you need s simple shift but with a pop of color, this dress is perfect. I added a sparkly necklace with simple earrings and wore my hair out. It's a comfortable dress and can probably work with different sizes and frames. I felt very comfortable all night in this dress and had a great time!

This is the ONLY dress I have ever worn where the torso was the PERFECT length for a tall person. I wish more designers would pay attention to this detail - it gives you a very slimming fit. BONUS: Pockets!

Such a fun dress!
This was the very first dress I fell in love with on RTR. I finally ended up just buying it. For a tall lady I thought it would be too short but it falls just in the right spot and is truly a unique dress. Love it!

Not a great fit for larger sizes.
This is a cute dress but I am a size 12 with also a large bust. So it ended up looking awkward on my frame. I'm sure it'll look cute on a smaller female.

Gorgeous dress - but mind the bust area
Love love LOVE this dress. And it was perfect for the outdoors, the material is on the heavier side which sits so nicely and feels great. The only problem is if you have have a larger bust or broad shoulders (guilty), you may end up ripping the dress at the shoulders due to the tension if you raise your arms while dancing. That happened. But other than that incident, my god did I love this dress.

Not great if you are tall
It's a very pretty dress but I am glad I ordered a backup just in case. If you are tall and also have a large bust, his is not the dress for you. It was tight and short and the waist started high up on my rib cage. Not a good look. Probably better for petite - average height - slim types without curves.

It's one of those earrings that when you put it on, you don't a necklace. It does the job of accessorizing your outfit.

First time in red - loved it.
I should probably just buy this damn dress. I've worn this and the one in blue a total of 4 times now... its such a great dress! It's cut very well, the contrast sheath beneath adds a nice pop of color. And the material is nice and heavy - very well made. Without even trying, you will be the best dressed renting this dress (or the blue one!). LOVE IT.

What a dress!
I ordered this as my back up and I swear, if I could have pulled off a wardrobe change so that I could wear both dresses at one event, I would've I so regret not being able to wear this dress. I'm usually wary of these types of dresses, as a larger female. But the cut is just right and the design is very flattering. Go for this dress, it'll surprise you :)

I didn't get to wear these, sadly.
These are actually quite large. As a result, I did not get to wear them. But I am sure if they would look fab with a sleek up do.

Life saver
I gained some weight (not happy about that one bit), and so worried about this dress. But it is true to size and the ruching in the middle is VERY forgiving. I ordered a 12 and it was just perfect. I'm 5'10" and so the long size wasn't quite long enough for me personally, but other than that - I was complimented all night on the gown. And I felt very comfortable in it. Success all around.

Beautiful!
Just the perfect accessory. I didnt even bother with rings. This cuff add that perfect balance for a very formal gown that make you feel that you have just the right amount of accessories on. This photo doesn't do justice to how great the cuff sparkles.

Very art deco
I honestly would never have picked a pair of earrings like this out if I were shopping - I'm not that creative. But these earrings were just perfect for the dress I wore, a one shoulder. I didn't do anything fancy with my hair and so these earrings were just the perfect accessory that instantly dressed my whole outfit up a notch. Great find.

Classy bling works well with both up and down hair styles.
I was hesitant about these earrings because I am not one to wear anything dangly. But these earrings actually are just the perfect length. Works great with both up and down hair styles, I tried both before settling on how to do my hair and it looked great.

It was a great pop of color, especially when everyone is wearing black. Easy standout dress!
So the fit on the top doesn't work if you are a busty gal. The rest of the dress worked just fine but the top was...unfortunate. Still a beautiful dress.

Simple tie necklace so you can adjust it to just the right length. It'll class up any dress.

"You look AMAZING in that dress" - from the bride!
This dress was amazing. I got compliments all evening. I am 5'10, weigh 168 lbs and have a large bust. The belt that comes with the dress is perfect for cinching the waist. The back of the dress is cut lower than the front which is very nice (and classy) look. I wore a size ten which was very true to size. Not too big not too small. I will say that the stripes are not exactly black and white. It's sort of black and cream/beige (but shows up white in pictures taken with flash). I will also recommend ironing the pleats because some got lost when the dress was mailed and then in my luggage during the flight to the wedding.

Very surprised with my surprise bling. Very happy with the earrings. I usually don't wear dangly earrings but I trusted the style team and they were a big hit.
