Elegant & Simple
Beautiful dress, fit perfectly and did not have to keep pulling it up throughout the night like with some strapless dresses. Length was also fine for me at 5’4” with the regular length, but I did have on 4” (non-platform) heels. Would recommend!

Very chic and elegant
I got the 2R but would’ve benefitted from the 4R as, per the other reviews, it’s snug in the waist. Pretty though!

Lovely
Beautiful dress. Wore it to a college reunion cocktail-style party. My chest featured prominently so I’d be aware of that before renting, depending on your comfortability with that. I would 100% wear this again this summer!

Beautiful Dress!
Very beautiful dress! Great material, gorgeous flowers, very flowy. I will say that it’s super long - I’m 5’4” and without 5” platform heels this would’ve dragged, and I still managed to get caught on it a couple of times. Also not a fan of the illusion mesh... just didn’t do anything for me personally. Outside of that it well for a black tie wedding.

Beautiful Color, Great Material
I loved this dress! The color was beautiful and photographed really well - lots of compliments. The material is thick so I felt comfortable without a bra since you'd otherwise need a strapless/bra-petal option (though when it was cold/AC blasting there was definitely some poppage... I didn't consider that a big issue, personally). I find E&J dresses run very small so this was a size or two up from what I sometimes wear in other dresses/designers. Knowing that when I rented it helped - I reserved the 2 and the 4, went for the 4. The style is pretty classic so I'd definitely wear this again to another occasion, particularly since they have it in other colors. Highly recommend!

Beautiful, Whimsical Dress
I love this dress, it's very beautiful. I rented it for a New Years Eve wedding (was slightly worried it might be too pale, but it isn't). I didn't end up wearing it because the other dress I got was even more gorgeous, but I love this dress and would rent it again to wear to something else! Love the detail and beading on it, plus the flowy skirt. It actually has a slit in it which I didn't realize until I was putting it on. Fit well. I'm wearing 4" heels in this photo. Sad I didn't get to wear it out of my apartment! Next time...

Beautiful Dress - Would Rent Again
This dress was beautiful and I was very happy in it. I was a tiny bit nervous about the cutout (my first), but it was actually perfect - just a little peek. It was classy with a splash of sex appeal. Two other friends mentioned that they had wanted to rent it - but I snagged it first! It was really comfortable, didn't wear a bra. It fit really well, nice thick material. I was very happy with the 0. Would definitely rent this again for another event. Loved it - lots of compliments.

Gorgeous - Showstopper - Do Not Underestimate This Amazing Dress
This is hands down the best dress I have ever worn in my entire life. As several others have said, it's a showstopper. I wore it to a black tie wedding on New Years Eve. I felt amazing and got compliments all night long. The slit is super sexy (perfect height for someone 5'4"), the cleavage is sexy, the open back is sexy. It's definitely sexy haha. If you like that sort of thing! I don't actually think my pic (or RTR profile pics) do it justice. Full disclosure, the 0 was snug (didn't wear a bra or undies), also needed help from a friend getting the hook-eye at the top of the zipper closed. I can see how depending on your arms, it's a bit tight there. Still, I wish I could wear this dress everywhere. I also got the 2 as a backup, but it didn't have the same WOW factor on me. RENT THIS DRESS.

So cute, but I couldn't wear it out...
This top is so pretty, I really badly wanted to wear it out, but I couldn't. Ultimately all the other photos and reviews that mention it are right: the liner under the silk hangs out about half an inch. I tried to keep the pieces together with fashion tape, but it looked much worse. You can wear it if you don't mind the liner hanging out, but I didn't like it. I need a crisp line! Also, as others mentioned, it's super cropped, but with high-waisted anything, it would be really cute. (Or generally great if you're looking for a top cropped at that length!)

Showstopper
Both the style and color of this dress will make you stand out. Like a lot of the other comments, I will tell you that it does put your boobs on full display, but I didn't feel uncomfortable . I loved this dress and would definitely wear it again! The flowy skirt was another big plus, felt very feminine and pretty in it. I also tried on the 2R as my backup size, and they felt almost exactly the same; the latter had more room in the waist area which is good because there's a hook & eye clasp you need to be able to close.

Stunning, loved it!
This dress is pretty much a show-stopper! Really beautiful and elegant, also R E D. I got a ton of compliments on it. Like a lot of the other reviews, I must say it is extremely tight in the chest area. Getting it zipped on my own was a challenge and I was a bit self-conscious about the tight fit in the chest-to-waist region, but once I was out and about it in, I was very happy. It's comfortable in the stomach area. Basically if you order this dress it would be a safe bet to have the back-up size to try, if possible.

Pretty and Modern
This was my back up dress for a christening, and although I didn't end up wearing it, it was a very close second. In fact, I saw someone else wearing it when I arrived at the church! I'd definitely rent it again for another occasion. Only thing I did notice is that the back is very see-through so you'll have to be particularly careful with underwear selection (something seamless, nude, or both).

Adorable, lovely, and party perfect!
I did not want to send this dress back to RtR after my event. I wore it to my Godson's christening and it was beautiful - beyond my expectations. It was a sunny day and this ended up being the perfect choice, extremely flattering. Short, but not too short, chic, summery... exactly what I needed - plus I'm totally crazy for stripes so this fit the bill. I need to find and buy this dress because I can see it being great for many other occasions (weddings, summer parties, etc.) The material was thick too (but not hot), so it didn't get wrinkled which was great since I wore it for several hours.

Long, elegant, wedding perfect
This was a back up dress that RtR sent when my original order couldn't be sent because of damage. I'm so glad that this is the dress I ended up wearing because it was totally beautiful and perfect for the wedding I attended. I got lots of compliments on this dress all night. It was flowy and made me feel very elegant - had an Greek Goddess element to it (even though it's not white). I usually go for short dresses, but this was a very refreshing change. The 0R ended up being a good length for me even though I did not wear platform heels, just regular strappy sandals - you definitely have to be aware when going up or down stairs though. I would rent this again - wish I owned it!
