Very pretty! But runs big
I loved almost every thing about this dress except for the fact that it was too large on me. You can see that it's a little loose on top. However, the type of fabric and design were so pretty that I decided to go with it for my engagement photos anyway.

Pretty
Up close, it's pretty clear that these are fake, but they are very pretty! I used these for my engagement photos and I thought they turned out really well. I usually like smaller earrings, but I like that these were impactful!

Beautiful!
I used this necklace and a few pieces that I thought match this necklace perfectly for my engagement photos. I loved all of the pieces, but the necklace was especially beautiful. It is romantic and classic!

Classy
The dress is so beautiful - you will not be disappointed. The 38P size is the only one that was available - and it was indeed too short for my build with 3 inch heels, but not that noticeable.

Strachy material
The fit didn't work well on me as it was a bit too big - and it was not a comfortable material at all.

Too big!
I didn't realize that ML sizes runs so large. If you typically wear a size 0 there is no size that they make that will fit you.

This dress has a beautiful color. The top is a bit smaller - but the silhouette is gorgeous.

The dress is probably very pretty to other women - but all the guys I met thought it looked stuffy and uncomfortable.

Such a happy dress!
The dress is so much nicer in person and on the body than the picture or on the model. The dress makes your body look so much better than the model does - this is one of those dresses that actually makes normal people look better than really skinny models! The color is also amazing and flattering. I would highly recommend!

Great for someone older.
The dress was very elaborate and very beautiful. There's no doubt that it felt like it was well made and high-end. However, I felt like it would have suited someone slightly more mature than me - or at least someone who was into more formal fashion than I was (it is also likely that I'm just not chic enough to pull it off). I think this dress is great for any formal event - it is perfectly appropriate for every fancy occasion - it's not loud or wild. However, the fact that it is just black made it feel a little too aged for what I was hoping for. I admit that it is also likely that it didn't have the sexy factor for me because I have less curves - and I don't think the dress was particularly helpful to accentuate the little curves that I do have.

Perfectly good dress
I liked the dress a lot and thought it was generally a really good dress. However, the top just was too big for me, and if you are smaller on top or generally wear a size zero, I would pick a different brand. The size difference wasn't really noticeable by others, it just didn't completely feel comfortable for me. Also, it was perhaps a bit too sexy for a wedding, especially one with a lot of older family members.

Pretty
This dress was very pretty, it wasn't extravagant or over the top - but is just really very pretty. It was great for a wedding or another event where you're definitely not trying to outshine others. It's also incredibly appropriate and very comfortable. The colors are great and people definitely complimented the dress.

Super classy!
I wore this to a work event and it was super classy, tasteful and eye catching. My boss told me I had great taste. I was also a speaker at the event and the dress made people thought I was much more successful than I actually was! However, it was quite tight to get on, so maybe try a size up from normal.

Stunning, Regal and Awe inspiring.
This dress was absolutely spectacular. I went to a party at the Met Opera members club for a black tie event. I thought this dress would be understated but it completely stole the show! Strangers would come up to me and tell me how beautiful my dress was and that they had noticed it from across the theater. By the end of the night, most everyone at the event knew my dress, if not my name. The best word I think I can use to describe the dress was regal - because you feel expensive, like royalty! The fit is a little small, and I almost couldn't zip it up with a bra underneath, but I also never wanted to take it off either....

Highly recommended!
This necklace went incredibly well with the dress that it was recommended for - even better in real life than in the pictures. The pictures do not really do justice to how expensive it looked or how well it played off of the light. I also generally dislike ribbon ties, but liked it here. It looked extravagant and expensive and I would highly recommend it!

So pretty!
This was so classic and pretty, it made me feel expensive carrying it. I will note that it barely fit my galaxy S4, so if you have a phone bigger than that - I would not get this.

Great sex appeal.
This dress is amazingly sexy - but not overly so, which was great. I wore this dress to a rehersal dinner for a wedding and was afraid that it would be too over the top sexy for a more family affair. But it definitely was not, it was perfect in every way. This dress made me look like I had curves that I didn't even know existed!

Gorgeous dress!
I wore this dress to a black tie new year's eve party and the manager of the venue came up to me and told me that I had, by far, the most stunning dress at the entire venue. The dress is not overstated, but is still stunning - so you always feel that you were appropriately dressed, but also better dressed than everyone else :). I would highly recommend this dress to anyone with a thin frame. While I loved this dress, it is clearly made for thin, tall people as the dress can make you look like you have a slight bulge at the tummy if you don't have a completely flat stomach. The regular length was also just slightly longer than my height (5'6) with 5 inch heels - so I would definitely not get the long length if you are around my height. Also, the dress is not very tight at the bust area, so a bra underneath was necessary for me. Overall, I loved this dress - but I would caution other people who wanted to rent this dress to make sure that it fits your body type and is the right length.

Beautiful dress... made me love RTR!
For being one of the cheapest rentals on RTR, I really didn't expect very much out of the dress. But it was gorgeous and perfect for the occasion! It was just conservative enough to wear to a wedding, but was so much classier than your typical prom dress. Definitely did not feel like my dress was lacking in any way for a very formal blacktie wedding. It was my first rental on RTR, and now I definitely recommend RTR to everyone I know!
