Great color and fun cut!
I wasn't feeling my best when I wore this to a summer wedding but I definitely like how it looked in the pictures (which I can't seem to find at the moment!) I wouldn't recommend this for Apple shapes or if you're Hourglass and having a bloated day BUT it was very comfortable and well-made- typical of the other Shoshanna styles I've rented/worn.

NO ONE could stop talking about this dress.
Honestly, I really wanted to wear the 8R but something was weird with the zipper so I wore the 10R. It was slightly roomier up top, but it wasn't a problem at all, not even on the dance floor. I'm a 36C and the 8R would have been more "fitted" to my chest but the 10R just gave a little more breathing room. I didn't even wear a bra with this dress because it comes with pads (which you can take out if you need to). I'm 5'6" and length was perfect with 2 inch heels. This dress is VERY slimming. It made me look extremely good, and everyone complimented me on it. Also, you can't tell but I'm a Type 1 diabetic and I had an insulin pump tucked into Spanx underneath the dress. Again, no one could even tell I was wearing it. Highly, highly recommend this. I can't say enough about it. It's my favorite RTR item so far.

Don't even attempt this if you have breasts or a caboose. In short, if you are a woman....
This may be my harshest review, but keep in mind- we all like different styles. I felt like a CUPCAKE in this. The cut of the dress combined with the bow and the fabric looked terrible on me. My boyfriend said it actually made me look like I was carrying an extra 10 pounds. Also, this is the LAST time I will attempt to wear something with a shoulder bow. It was like a Southern-belle gone wrong look. Sorry ladies- but for me individually this dress was awful.

So I LOVE this dress but beware because it arrives VERY wrinkled.
I had it steamed and pressed before I wore it but luckily RTR actually refunded me for this cost. Gorgeous dress- the material is more lemon than butter and it is a lot heavier than it looks in the pictures. Overall, I got many compliments on it- just watch out because it arrives wrinkled and then wrinkles easily when you are wearing it.

Used this necklace as the WOW factor for a basic black party dress...
This necklace is a great way to make a more subdued dress stand out. The beads are not as heavy as I thought they'd be- it's not made of metal ladies! It's got a lighter more plastic feel but doesn't appear that way when you wear it. I would actually buy this!

I rented this last minute for my own birthday party and was psyched with my RTR experience.
This dress is a little less formal than I initially thought from the photos but still works perfectly as your Friday night "little black dress" which was exactly what I was aiming for. My boyfriend loved it.

This dress was perfect for a winter wedding and I loved the gold color.
The fabric of this dress is thicker than you might imagine so plan for that. Also, the 6 looked a little more snug around my curvy areas than I was comfortable with while attending a Catholic wedding mass so I wore the 8.
