Spring wedding
Loved this dress! Was bright and fun for a wedding on Easter weekend. Very comfortable for a strapless dress. Lots of coverage up top and stayed put. I agree with other reviews that there was plenty of room in the bust area, but it didn’t feel too big and it was nice not to have that “back fat” spillage! The inner skirt is tighter but it was a good thing because the weather was windy and I never worried. I sized up and had plenty of room to dance. The way the rest of the skirt falls looser and longer is very flattering.

Comfortable
Wore this to church for my son's baptism. It is a double-layered, lightweight fabric that falls nicely. The sleeves are roomy and hang just at the edge of the shoulder without falling off. Worked with regular bra which was a plus. They do not have that "puffed" shoulder look, but are still billowy and pretty. The dress is a little longer than shown in the photo, it hit me at my ankles even with heels. Overall very pretty and feminine!

Great for late 2nd trimestester
There is a tighter satin underlayer that you put on first, and then a sheer fluttery layer that goes on top. This makes it very flattering, as there fabric drapes super smoothly. Plenty of room for my 2nd trimester stomach. Wore true pre-pregnancy size, but was a little tight in the bust (and lower cut). Plenty of room for the bump, though!

Flattering cutouts
Great fit and comfort for athletic body! The 8 gave me plenty of room in the butt and thighs but still hugged my curves. Stretchy fabric meant dancing and sitting and cramming in an Uber were no problem. Did not have to wear a bra because the top hugged and supported so well. I like to wear very high heels and this one was a little short when I did.

Unique and flattering!
Loved this dress. It was so special. The way the nude slip underneath makes the lace pattern pop is really beautiful. Asymmetrical top also added and interesting element. Got lots of compliments! The keyhole falls in a flattering spot, and the waistband is pretty stretchy. I will say the 8 was so tight I didn't need to wear a bra, which was actually kind of nice, but if you're between sizes I would go up. There was plenty of room in the skirt. Overall very comfortable and stylish dress!

Leighton Lace Dress
Slate & Willow

Loved this dress.
So much I would have kept it! It is not as short as it looks in the picture. I'm 5'6" and wore 3" heels and it still was the perfect length, hardly dusting the ground. It was extremely comfortable and had plenty of room in the ribcage and hips for breathing, eating and dancing. Fell very nicely for a sheath-style, and the ruffle was nice without adding too much up top. You couldn't really feel the opening beneath the bust due to the ruffle, which was fine with me. Loved the adjustable strap in the back. Very sexy but flattering!

Fancy vacation dinner
Fit perfectly up top but had lovely looser draping at the bottom. The material is beautiful and it was lightweight and perfect for the beach. The high low cut is super sexy if you love to show off legs! Coral and gold also great for the beach

Classy but spacious
The mesh material makes it easy for items to fit in this clutch. It is very classy and great for a formal affair, and fit all my essentials with ease. iPhone 6, lipstick, cards, and a mini perfume. Nice secure closure. I rented this one in black for a black the wedding after renting the gold one previously for another wedding - because I like it that much.

Beautiful fabric and the "mystery" accessory that came with it was a beautiful clutch that I used!
Didn't actually wear. RTR said dress ran big, and to order an extra size down. My normal size was not available, so I took a risk and ordered the size down only. It was so small that I don't feel my "regular size" would have fit, either! The dress fit me and zipped but was so short on my legs that it nearly exposed my rear and I couldn't wear it to my event. Unfortunately, a wasted rental for me.
