Beautiful and unique but too heavy
These were my "mystery bling" item. They were gorgeous and very unique but way too heavy to wear for a long awards banquet.

Fancier than in photos
Ended up not wearing as too fancy for work function I rented it for. Would be perfect for a date night or wedding. Gorgeous rose gold color!

Perfect for work headshots
Loved this navy blue wrap dress. Typically I wear a 10 but ended up wearing the 12 for more coverage up top since was wearing for work. This dress is shorter than expected (I'm 5'5") but very classy. The collar did appear to be quite worn up close, but could not tell from a distance. Highly recommend for work functions!

Small thru the chest
Great material, color and length and fit true to size everywhere but the chest which was too small and look awkward. Bra size is 34D.

LOVED this dress!
I rented this for my brother's wedding (which also happened to be my birthday) so I wanted to wear something a little different. This dress fit the bill. The 10 fit perfectly (I normally wear 8-10). However, as soon as I put it on at the venue it turned out the zipper had arrived split so I was unable to wear this dress. My backup size was far too large in the chest. I was very disappointed, but RTR was super great when I told them about the split zipper even though it was too late to exchange. Highly recommend this dress if you are looking for something sleek with a bit of interest. The chest does run large.

Perfect for outdoor wedding!
Loved this dress! Worn for an outdoor/camping wedding. Super comfy and the pockets were a huge plus. Typically I wear an 8 and it fit well but since I'd be hiking around the woods I went with the 10 as it allowed a bit more room. Color was vibrant and stood out. Would definitely order again! For reference I am 5'5" and 160# with a curvy build.

Ordered this to use with the Yumi Kim dream maxi and it was the perfect accessory. Received tons of compliments. Bigger than expected but ended up being the perfect size.

Friend's spring wedding
LOVED this dress! I ordered the medium and large as the back up. Very glad I ordered the large as this is what I ended up wearing. It was smaller through the bust area. I worried about the high neck as I am a 34D but it was perfect. I am only 5'5" and I wore 2.5 inches but the dress was still long! Luckily the slit made it easy to hold up. Received so many compliments on this dress and would definitely order it again. Just wish it came in a petite size!
