Yes!
I loved wearing this dress to a party and felt quite sexy in it :) The quality was better than expected and the materials was substantial yet stretchy. This means it covers small imperfections but allows for a lot of movement at the same time. The red color photographed well, and a nice change from a typical black dress. It was also easy to dance in and very comfortable. I highly recommend it!

Great material, wrong fit.
This is the only size 12 dress that I ever got from RTR that I couldn't zip up. Maybe the smaller sizes are a better fit, but I would size up to be on a safe side. The quality of the dress was great and I liked the color but not able to wear it in the end.

Gorgeous detail!
This dress is fun, different and beautifully made. No bra is necessary as the bust has a nice construction to it. While I rented it for a party I wished I had a reason to wear it during the day as the colors are so stunning, and I can imagine it would photograph well. Few notes: It's a well made dress with some layers so perhaps not the best dress for dancing all the night away; I had some room left in the chest area but it wasn't noticeable; a strapless bra would work well for a smaller bust. Finally, this dress is of excellent quality and it shows.

One of my favorite RTR rentals!
Felt beautiful and elegant in this dress. The size was perfect and it hugged me in all the right places. No bra was needed to wear it, which I always consider a plus :) The material was great too and I was surprised that it wasn't heavy at all. A lot of dresses that have sequins or sparkle weigh a lot but not this one. Would rent it again!

Perfect for Hollywood Glam party
Very happy with the way it looked in the photos, but it was bit tight. I had it on the last possible link and it still felt small. It was ok for few hours though and I'm glad I rented it.

Weird size
It feels like the top of dress is two sizes bigger from the bottom. I'm 34D and the top was super very very loose. I loved the bottom of the dress but to wear it I would have had to have altered completely.

Lovely shape
This dress fit like a glove, was comfy but lacked that bit of oomph I was looking for so ended up not wearing it.

Gorgeous color!
I really liked this dress but it was tight in the bust area and I felt too flat, hence decision not to wear it. At the same time the top was quite wide and my guess is that it would be better suited to someone of an athletic figure with broad shoulders.

Lots of lovely sparkle!
The dress fit really well and is very forgiving, comfortable. I didn't end up wearing it as I didn't think it flattered my shape (apple). I think this dress would work better on a slender person.

Pretty dress but very thick so didn't wear it.
I could only stay in it for about 5 mins before taking off as I felt very warm in it. I rented it for a party and can't imagine dancing in it ;) I think it would be a great dress for a more formal event.

Didn't like the material.
The size was perfect but the material was itchy and I didn't want to wear it with a long sleeve shirt.

Nice for a more formal occasion.
Super cute and nice material but the color is off white and looks bit tired. I think it would look better on someone who is really tanned. The bust area was loose so I didn't end up wearing it.

Very pretty and feminine.
Great stretchy material. It was too small in the bust area unfortunately. Would rent a larger size in the future.

Cute dress, got compliments on it.
I recommend sizing down as the fabric stretches and I think a smaller size would have looked better. Regardless I enjoyed wearing it and the print is super cute. I think it would be a perfect dress for a picnic or brunch.

Didn't wear it as it was too tight.
I loved the color but didn't like the material. It looked bit wrinkly and despite being too small made my tummy area look bigger. I can imagine this being a perfect maternity dress.

Sexy, yet comfy!
I rented this dress for a NYE party and loved how it made me feel. I didn't have to wear a bar (I don't think one would work anyway), as there is some padding on each breast side. The color is stunning and photographs well. It was so easy to wear and comfortable standing, sitting or dancing. This is a perfect party dress and will make you feel sexy and feminine.

Lovely and unique feminine dress :)
I wore this dress to an evening event and absolutely loved it. The color was just perfect and I felt it stood out in a crowd. It's backless which adds a great touch without being too revealing. As the material is quite sturdy I didn't need to wear any bra and it still looked great. I would rent it again!

Perfect dress for a night out and cocktails!
This was my first RTR item and such a hit. I received ton of compliments and felt great wearing it. It was comfy, looked amazing and a perfect fit. I didn't have to wear a bra as the material is thick enough to get away with it. The dress also looked great in photos :)
