So flattering!
Absolutely LOVED this dress that I wore for my baby shower at 26 weeks pregnant. I sized up to a large (from my normal medium) and it fit the bump great. Also ordered an XL as my backup, but it was too big. I felt like a million bucks and got compliments all afternoon. It is definitely challenging to walk in, so just keep that in mind or you’ll have to hold it above your knees when you walk. Since I was mostly standing or sitting, it didn’t bother me much. Highly recommend this dress whether or not you’re pregnant - sooo flattering!

Rent this stunner!
This dress is incredible and a MUST to rent for any date night or fancy occasion! I rented both the S and M, and ended up wearing my usual size M with shape wear underneath. The fabric is thick and secure, but I wanted a little extra something since I was wearing this dress to a nice dinner. I noticed some reviews talking about the shoulders slipping down, so I was hesitant but ultimately didn’t have any issues. I felt so beautiful in this dress and nearly purchased it!

Love this dress!
I ordered both a S and M, and ended up wearing my usual size M. It was a little big in the bust, but I wore a strapless bra and it did the trick. The dress laid nicely over my midsection but I wore shapewear just to smooth things out. The slit was a little high but that wouldn’t stop me from renting again! I absolutely loved the color and felt amazing all night. Highly recommend renting!

Simply stunning!
I ordered both a S and M, and ended up wearing my usual size M. I was a little worried about the straps being too long and that they’d fall. They did fall a bit, but nothing to stop me from renting this dress again. The fabric was beautiful, colors were vibrant, and the fit of the dress sucked me in (I still wore shapewear for extra oomph), and it was a great dress for an early fall wedding.

Renting is so easy every time!
I usually wear a 4 on RTR dresses, but thankfully I ordered a 2 in this dress as well. The 4 was hugeeee on me but the 2 fit perfectly. The dress is a comfortable stretchy material and I felt great in it all night. I wanted a LBD with a twist, and this dress was definitely it! Absolutely loved it.

Getting a free second size is so convenient!
I liked this dress. It is a thick material, mostly hides imperfections, comfortable, and was a good length. I thought I could get away with wearing a regular bra, but the straps showed thru the cutouts. I'm a 4 and the small fit me. But, overall, I was underwhelmed with the dress. It fit fine and I was comfortable wearing it, but I wish I had chosen something else. It's nothing special compared to some of the other dresses on the site.

The customer service is always great!
This dress was great! It has an elastic waist that I covered with a belt, and I thought it looked better with one. Everything was great except it was pretty short. The sides of the dress are cut higher and you can tell by the pictures of the model. The 4 was true to size, but I recommend going a size up if you are worried about the length. Overall, I liked it a lot!

This dress was the best of both worlds—comfortable and sexy!
I LOVED this dress. I was nervous because it was an Herve, but since the skirt belled out a little, it was perfect and wasn't tight below the waist. I thought I would need to wear a small, but it was too tight on top and the bell of the skirt was lower so my mid-section was showing, so I'm glad I got a medium. I tried this dress with a strapless bra but the material pushed me down so it looked weird. I tried it on with sticky cups, and it looked way better! Overall great dress and I would rent it again.

I felt like the belle of the ball at my 21st birthday party!
The dress fit perfectly! The material was great because it was thick enough to hide minor imperfections, while still being comfortable. I was a little nervous when I first tried it on, because the back seemed more open than I thought it would be. I also had to wear a NuBra because a regular bra showed in the back. However, I still felt great! This dress was AMAZING and I would absolutely rent it again.

Dance to the Beat Dress

It came right on time.
First of all, this dress is beautiful. The color is true to the picture and the fabric was very comfortable, and the sheer back was super cute. However, it definitely runs small and, for me, it was much too short. I needed at least another 5 inches for it to reach the ground, and another 4 to wear it with heels. I got a medium which I thought would fit, but it was still very tight. I felt very uncomfortable in this dress because it showed my stomach, love handles, and butt through the dress. Everything I wanted hidden was sticking out. I think it would have looked better if I got a 4L. (only the MR was available at the time I needed it—this was a second option as my first dress had been double booked) I'm sure I would have been happy with the dress if I got my size, unfortunately, I could not due to factors out of my control.

I felt like a celebrity
The fit was true to size. It was a little tight in the bust for me, but there is a little strap on the inside of the dress that allows you to tighten it so it stays in place, I think I would have been more comfortable if I didn't fasten the strap, but it wasn't anything unbearable. This dress looks exactly the same in person as in the photo. I loved wearing it and if I have another formal event, I would definitely rent it again!

All my friends loved the dress, I felt great wearing it! It was sexy yet sophisticated.
The picture does not do the dress justice, it looks STUNNING on! The color is a bright coral/red, basically the same color as it looks in the picture. It fit perfectly and I received many compliments throughout the night. The only thing that bothered me was that all the fabric on the sleeves kept rotating and I had to adjust it on my shoulders. I had a blast wearing this dress and would definitely rent again!
