Perfect for a bridal shower, but consider sizing up!
The dress was beautiful and I loved wearing it for my bridal shower! It felt very elegant with the higher neckline and long sleeves, and was perfect for wearing in chilly weather. I did feel like the dress ran small - I'm consistently a 0 or 2 and I kind of wished I had ordered a 2 and 4. I wore the 2 and it was fine, but I may have been more comfortable in the 4. Didn't even attempt the 0. I'm also pretty short (5'2") and felt that this dress was a little short on me for the occasion. It does have a liner - I found it to be slightly see-through in bright light so I wore a slip underneath it as well. Overall I loved the elegance of the dress and how it looked in pictures!

Super sophisticated with subtle sparkle!
Rented this dress for a semi-formal Gatsby-themed event! I ended up wearing the medium instead of my typical small just cause it wasn't as snug! I'm 5'2", so I'm always concerned about things being too long and this was a little longer than I normally like, but I think it just helped make it look classier. My only complaint is that after dancing in it for a couple hours, I did notice the sequins scratching my arms. Great quality dress! I loved how the bronze sequins were sparkly, but not too over the top!

A perfect classy look for engagement photos!
I wore the size 2 for my engagement photos and felt very pretty in this dress! The pale pink - almost white color is a nice little change from the typical bridal white! The length was perfect for me, but may be a little short on taller people. It fit me well from the waist down. Not sure if it was just the way I had it tied, but I noticed that it was kind of puckering up in some of our pictures around my shoulders, so it appeared a little big. I felt comfortable wearing it though! I only received the size 2, so unsure if the 0 would have been any better - probably would have still gone with the 2. Wore with a chunky silver necklace and strappy nude heels.

Fun and flirty for engagement photos!
I wore this romper for engagement photos and absolutely loved it!! I was a little nervous because I was only able to have the XS shipped to me, but it worked out just fine! It was a little short lengthwise - I would get a wedgie when I tried to bend over too far, but I think having the S would have fixed that issue entirely! Otherwise it fit well everywhere else! The length of the shorts was perfect for my short height! The V-neck aspect of it was a little low, but I contribute that to the fact that it probably wasn't the perfect size for me. Would totally buy this if I could!

So bright and fun!
I wore this dress to my friend's Lilly themed bridal shower and it was perfect! I ended up wearing the 0 over the 2 just because the armpit area puckered a little less and even though the 0 was a little tighter in the hips , I still felt comfortable. I honestly could have worn the 2 though and it would have been fine. I loved that the dress had a shape and didn't just look like a sack when it was on. It was just the right amount of form fitting that allowed me to eat plenty at the shower without being self-conscious. I felt like the fabric wrinkled in the stomach area when I sat down, but otherwise don't really have anything negative to say about this dress! Love the orange tassel on the zipper in the back - got so many compliments on that cute little detail!

LOVELOVELOVE THIS DRESS!
Rented this dress for a wedding and I felt like a rockstar all night! So classy and stunning! The fabric doesn't have much give, but the small fit me well (even was a little loose which made the dress comfortable). The XS was way too small on me. The only part I didn't love about this dress was actually putting it on - it's kind of awkward and you have to pull it over your head, which can mess up your hair. I was concerned about the length of the underskirt, but it was perfect and I felt totally comfortable enough to dance all night long! Would definitely recommend this showstopper!

Can't say anything negative about this dress!
Meant to wear this dress to a rehearsal dinner, but messed up the dates and ended up having to find a use for it before it needed to go back. Wore it on a dinner date with my fiancé and it was perfect! I wore the size 2 - probably could have gotten away with the 0, but the chest/rib area was looser and more comfortable in a 2. The fabric, cut, and length were perfect! Not too long for someone who is short like me! Would definitely re-rent and recommend to others!

So classy and fun to wear!
Although I felt this dress ran a little large, I LOVED WEARING THIS DRESS! It was a little large in the chest/bust area, but fit pretty well everywhere else. A little long, but everything is long on me (I'm 5'2") and the length made it very church appropriate. If there was a 00 in this dress, I think that would have been ideal! I was a little nervous about renting this one as reviews stated that having a larger chest was required. Even with a small chest (34B), I was able to make this work out just fine with a good push up bra. The neckline is so cute!l and adds a little sexiness! The material is thick and is great quality. The skirt is so fun to twirl in! I felt awesome in this dress despite it being a little large, and my fiancé loved it! Would definitely rent again and recommend to others!

Classy and Fun!
This was my first RTR experience and it was great! I went with the size 2 because it was slightly longer (although I couldn't really bend over without showing too much). The 0 fit, but was shorter and not as comfortable. I was surprised at how short it was as I'm only 5'2" and most "mini" things tend to be an appropriate length on me! I would wonder how it would be on taller girls. It fit snug, but was stretchy and very comfortable to move and dance in at my best friend's bachelorette (She's wearing RTR in this pic too)! I wore it out to dinner and to a bar for the night with wedges. I wore stickies underneath, but could have gone braless. The shoulders were a slight issue since there's not really anything holding it on and I didn't bring fashion tape like other reviews had recommended, but I had a cross body purse on pretty much the whole time so it ended up not bothering me! Overall, a successful and sparkly rental!
