Rented this for a late summer rehearsal dinner. I wanted something short and fun but also with sleeves. Fabric and sleeves on this are light enough that I was comfy all evening on a warm September night. Figuring out the wrap is a little tricky at first so give yourself an extra few minutes getting dressed but otherwise perfect for a summer night out.

Beautiful color and a chic almost 60s vibe paired with heels and pearls. At the time of renting, I knew that E and J runs small, so I was sure to opt for the 8 in addition to my typical 6. Both sizes fit. I could've worn the 6, which was snug yet breathable, but with a lengthy birthday dinner in store for the night , I opted for the 8. I recommend ordering up for your backup size. Zips smoothly. Best to wear a strapless bra so the sides don't peek out underneath the armpits.

I wore this to a very formal restaurant and performance afterward for my boyfriend's birthday. He loved this dress, particularly the color. The photo doesn't do the color justice, as it is dimly lit, but the RTR photo is pretty spot on in terms of color. A perfect length for something fun, but not too revealing. Other reviews are right about the straps being way too big, even with the extra clasp closed. To combat this, I wore a strapless bra with some pushup so it filled out the dress a bit more. Still just had to be careful that they didn't slide down too much. Also, a strapless bra can be worn (definitely not a regular bra though, as the straps would show through the lace). Zippers easily and fairly comfortable for a long evening. The color certainly turn heads, too. Would rent again for a spring/summer affair.

I wore this to a cocktail reception and then out for drinks afterward. Very comfortable all evening long. The fabric on bottom is form-fitting and thinner than on top, but still thick enough to be flattering. Length is a bit above the knee, so fun but not revealing. While they don't show much in the photo, the colors really stand out in person. Definitely not your typical LBD. Be warned about the zipper though. The size 6 that I wore was not too tight at all, but the zipper was getting caught on the leather band on the mid-section. I had to have my boyfriend zip me up. Highly recommend this dress and would rent again; just be sure you have someone to zip you up!
