Favorite rental ever!
The fit was perfect; it's structured enough to hold me in but still very, very comfortable. Only note is I had to adjust the boning in the top occasionally, as it seems it's for someone bustier than my 36A size. Didn't really wrinkle in travel either. Highly highly recommend!

Comfy and fun!
I loved the shape, loved the cinching at the ankles, and the fabric is really, really soft. Really easy to wear and can be dressed up or down. Will rent again.

Showstopper!
Got so many compliments on this...even among a sea of costumed people! Very flattering, could have sized up but a small worked fine. Good for short people. No steaming needed even after a few trips.

Amazing shape but long torso and tight waist
Still looked fabulous, but after lunch struggled to breathe. Should have sized up one but I have a short torso and the fit wouldn't have been as great. Partner wants me to buy this one!

Gorgeous but Itchy
Loved this, loved the fit and double-breasted look. But the sequins started to bother me under the arms after a few hours.

Great fit, love the shape, but itchy
A stylist-selected backup. I didn't end up wearing it. But it was my husband's favorite out of the 6 RTR dresses I tried! It was an awesome fit (I'm about 36", 27", 38" and wore a 4), I loved the shape with the high neckline, and I warmed to the print though I wasn't crazy about it at first. The real issue was the fabric: It was itchy. Especially the lace detailing at the neck. I knew it would bother me over the course of the six hours at the wedding.

Beautiful but heavy!
This was a backup and I didn't end up wearing it. The stylist selected it for me. I usually don't select necklines like this but was excited to try something new. The second I held it up I knew it wouldn't work - it is SO HEAVY! Like wearing six sweatshirts. Crazy heavy. But, the color's gorgeous, the material's different (kind of a textured matte, really neat), and maybe with the right bra I could fill out the top. Amazing quality though, a cool style, and a great dress for a cooler-weather occasion.

Beautiful blue color - great for larger-chested gals!
This was a backup and I didn't end up wearing it. Great quality, beautiful royal color, gorgeous style. I just couldn't come close to filling out the top. I'm a 36A and even with a bit of padding, I still had a ton of room in the bust. Super-comfortable though!

Amazing fit! Wonderful fun details.
This was a backup. I didn't wear it to the event - but honestly I wish I did! I think I would've felt just a bit more beautiful. It's a stunning dress, and was the best fit out of the six dresses I tried. I love the mermaid style and how there was a tiny flare at the bottom. Perfect length - I'm 5'3" and wore 4" heels and it was just floor-skimming. I tried with and without a bra and didn't need one, even though I'm usually insecure about not wearing one. I especially loved the styling on the back. So special! I hope to have another event wear this too. Such a fantastic fit.

Amazing design!
Gosh, I wish I could've worn this dress! It's a beautiful dress, it's a cool design, and overall it fit beautifully - except for a lot of extra fabric at the hips. Such a bummer! I have a lot of hips and booty too, for my size, but I couldn't come close to filling that out. I got a 4, I'm a 36A up top, about a 27" waist, and 38" hips. Would recommend this to hippier ladies to try out! It's stunning.

Classic, great fit, beautiful color
RTR was so great to send me multiple backups after two of my original dresses were unavailable. This was one of the backups, and I wore it to a black tie wedding. Gorgeous color and the fit was incredible. It was just a bit too long; I'm 5'3", wore 4" heels, and it was still about an inch long, but I just lifted the train when I walked. Honestly I wasn't crazy about any of the dresses I got this time with RTR (oh how I wish the choices that weren't available were!) but this was a beautiful classic dress. I did think I'd be the only one in red, though turns out there were 4 others, one of whom was in almost the same exact dress! But my husband said mine was the best. He's biased for sure!
