Loved this look--was perfect for a formal autumn wedding!
The size fit perfectly, although the sleeves were the tiniest bit tight. Length was great--at 5'3" and wearing 3 inch heels, the back just barely touched the ground. Got lots of compliments on the beautiful detailing.

The color and material of this dress were gorgeous!
I was right in between a small and a medium: the medium was way too low cut, and the small was a bit tight at the waist. I actually wore the medium to the church service with a cardigan for comfort, and switched to the small for the reception! I was able to wear a small comfortably without a bra. Dress photographed well and was fun for dancing! The pockets were also great.

These pants were a hit!
I got so many compliments on these! Upside: they are the perfect metallic color, the sequins look fantastic in pictures and I felt awesome. Downsides: As others mentioned, they are thick so definitely warm, and be careful what shirt you wear--I wore a black tank and unfortunately the sequins pulled it apart. I will also note be careful putting these on! I stabbed myself with a few sequins. I was between a small and a medium, and while the medium was a bit more comfortable in the waist, they did make my legs look a little thick, so went with the small. Small was the perfect length on me.

Perfect sparkle for a NYE wedding!
This dress was definitely shorter and tighter than I was expecting (mostly because of the lining, which has a tendency to ride up). I ended up wearing the small with black tights and spanx and it all worked out! The color and sequins were fantastic, and I loved the open cut back.

Beautiful pattern! Love clover canyon
This dress definitely fits like other clover canyon dresses I've worn with that thick material. I really liked the slightly longer length on this one, especially being more low cut. It made it perfect for an October wedding. I will say it felt a little tight for the formal church ceremony, but was perfect for the reception! Both the small and medium fit, but the small was more flattering.

Not a flattering fit for me, but beautiful color
RTR didn't have my original dress order in both of my requested sizes, so sent me this dress as a backup. color was beautiful but skirt was extremely full, which was not flattering on my hips. Dress is very 50s looking, but not quite the style I was going for.

Great accessory match
While I thought the bangles looked a little cheaper than I was hoping from the pictures online, the mix of gold and silver was great and made the look.

Great fit! Perfect for an outdoor wedding!
RTR didn't have my backup size (6) but fortunately the 4 fit perfectly. The heavier material is especially flattering! It was warm out, but I didn't feel uncomfortable at all. Absolutely loved the shape and colors of the dress.

Great preppy dress for a summer wedding
Rented the 6 and 4, and went for the 6 because there isn't any stretch in the fabric. The dress is a little short, so the 6 helped with that, too! Loved the detailing on the front of the dress and the flattering cut.

Dress was fantastic! Wore to a bachelorette in Miami and it was perfect for dinner and the club.
Dress fit like a glove. I rented the small and medium, and while both fit the small had the tighter look I as going for. The material and print of the dress were both so flattering! Got lots of compliments.

Absolutely loved--got so many compliments!
Paired for a wedding with a hot pink belt. Like other reviewers said, there is a lot of material below the waist, so a belt makes it more flattering. very comfortable and great colors.

really cute, wish it had fit me a little better!
Rented this one for new years. RTR only had a size 2 available so I gave it a shot (even though I'm usually a 4)--fabric is super heavy and it has no stretch at all, so wasn't able to wear. loved the style and will have to rent in a size up next time!

I received so many compliments on this dress! It fit perfectly and was great for dancing!
This dress was originally my RTR backup, but fit even better than the dress I had planned on wearing. I wore the 4R with with 3 inch heels and the length was perfect. It is definitely low cut, but with a U-plunge bra from victoria's secret and some of the fashion tape that came with the dress it stayed in place perfectly. The color is gorgeous, and it's the perfect dress for a statement necklace. I feel comfortable and glamorous all night!
