So comfortable
Pretty, comfortable, easy to wear dress! I loved the color too. Definitely runs a little big like others have said. I’m 2 months postpartum and felt so comfortable in this dress.

Runs big
I wore this to a formal wedding in September and it was perfect for the occasion. I was looking for a dress that could help hide recent weight gain due to my pregnancy (I was 7 weeks pregnant when I wore this) and this one worked because of the ruching and heavy fabric. The dress definitely runs big- I’m usually an 8 and wore a 6 and it fit great. I got a lot of compliments on this one!

Too tight
I couldn't wear this dress, and RTR didn't have a large for my backup size. (I ordered a medium). It was too tight and had no stretch. The most uncomfortable part was the bottom/mermaid flare part of the dress- I could barely walk. Size up especially if you have curves! But it is a beautiful and kinda sexy dress. Just didn't work for me.

Great color
Loved the color of this dress. I ordered this as a backup, but chose to wear it because my original choice was too small. This dress was a little snug on me, but it has a slight stretch so it wasn't uncomfortable. If you have curves, I'd suggest getting a larger size as your backup.

Beautiful dress, hard to get sizing right
I rented this dress on a whim for my engagement pictures. It's a really beautiful dress- the color, the shape, the way it flows at the bottom. However, sizing is very difficult. For reference (since I don't have a picture) I'm 5'7", about 150 lbs., athletic/curvy build on the bottom, and a small chest (34 B- but a "small B" lol.) Other reviewers said they had trouble zipping up the dress because of tightness on the ribs, but I didn't have a problem at all with that. In fact, the dress was too loose on top for me so I really couldn't go bra-less. RTR didn't have any back-up sizes, so I didn't end up wearing this dress for my shoot. I think this dress looks better if you are able to get away without wearing a bra, or if you can put cups or a sticky bra inside the dress (it's low cut so a normal bra would show.) Otherwise, this is a very pretty and unique dress!!

cute dress for a summer wedding
My dress arrived from RTR VERY wrinkly, so I had to iron it the day of the wedding, which was a challenge because of the dress's pleats. It runs true to size, it was a little large on top for me, but nothing noticable (I'm also smaller on top than on bottom.) The pockets were a great feature of this dress, and I received tons of compliments all night on this dress. To be honest, this dress wasn't completely my style, but it's very cute and the colors are vibrant. I also feel like this dress would fit most body types. The material is quite thick, but luckily we had a cool evening so I didn't sweat too much! My only issue during my rental experience was with RTR and UPS- it's happened twice now that my dress gets sent back to RTR before I even receive it. Some weird glitch occurs between RTR and UPS apparently, but it's very frustrating that it keeps happening and RTR doesn't seem to invested in helping me resolve this issue! I'd love to keep using this service, but unless this issue gets resolved for future orders, I'll be taking my business elsewhere.

Gorgeous dress!!!!
This dress is truly stunning. I wore it to an Indian wedding at a fancier venue, so I felt appropriately dressed for the occasion wearing this dress. The way the light catches the green sequins is so beautiful. I received compliments all night (even from the bride!) This dress fits true to size and is a very flattering silhouette. It's form fitting without being uncomfortably tight, and I was able to dance in it as well. Like other reviewers said, it is a little itchy, but you get used to it after a while. I'm 5'7" and wore kitten heels, but if I wore high heels, I would've needed an 8L . GREAT DRESS!!!!

Comfortable, flowy dress
This dress is EXTREMELY comfortable. I'm 5'7", and wore an 8R. The fit is true to size, because I normally wear an 8 dress. If I wore high heels, I would've needed an 8L, but I could wear either flats or kitten heels with this and it would work. I didn't actually wear this dress to my event (it was my backup dress) but I would definitely consider renting it again. It's a great color, flattering fit, flowy, and comfortable.
