Pretty dress, had to go up a size
I liked the dress but I had to size up solely due to the waist band - I do sometimes have a little trouble with my waist because I'm more straight and narrow than curvy at the waist but the size up almost didn't fit either! Just something to be aware of if you sometimes have issues at the waist in dresses. Overall though, I liked the dress.

Great dress for a spring wedding
I liked this dress a lot - it worked well for a spring wedding. I got a lot of compliments and overall it fit pretty well to my body type.

Not flattering (on me at least)
I rented this for New Years' Eve but did not end up wearing it because I felt like it made me look like I had a large tummy area (which I don't) and no chest at all - it just did not show off any of my good features and seemed to highlight the bad ones. This dress would probably look best on someone a little bustier - just didn't fit my body type well.

Great for my bachelorette party! (Runs small!)
I ended up going to the RTR store to exchange a dress that didn't fit and to try to find another one for my bachelorette party - I told the associate what I was looking for and that I was a size 4 and she brought me this dress in an 8. Definitely runs small, because the 8 fit perfectly. I loved the dress though - it was super comfortable, easy to dance in and perfect for my bachelorette party! Definitely the perfect party dress, just be careful about the size!

Wasn't my favorite - see details below:
I rented this originally for my bachelorette party and ended up exchanging this dress for another one from RTR. I would have worn it if I hadn't found another one but there were a few things that turned me off from it. I ordered sizes 2 and 4 and almost wished I had gotten a 0 ,which probably would have been too tight, but the 2 was a little loose which made it keep bunching and riding up. The sleeves also made my shoulders look pretty weird - they were higher than I liked. Like I said, would have worn it if I hadn't found another one, but I know the bunching would have driven me nuts all night.

Great dress!
Loved the dress! I have no complaints at all. It was true to size and very comfortable. It was great for an outdoor Spring wedding.

Was able to wear this dress to a formal gala and a bachelorette party that were the same night!
It was a beautiful dress - I ended up going with the 6 over the 4 - it definitely runs a little small, so I would opt for the next size up when ordering. It was a great dress though - I chose it because I had a formal gala for work and a bachelorette party the same night and I wanted something I could wear to both. It was comfortable although the beading rubs against your arms a little, but not too much to be annoying. Everyone loved it and I even got compliments from strangers! It was a good choice!
