Not for petite girls
I would not recommend this for a short girl, the peplum hits very low, creating a frumpy look. For everyone else, I recommend going a size down. However, the material is very comfortable and the dress itself is super cute!

Fit like a glove, ridiculously comfortable
I was expecting this dress to be right and uncomfortable, but it ended up being so soft and easy to move in! Very stretchy material and a stunning color. I do NOT recommend wearing any undergarments besides a strapless bra in this. I'll be very sad to send this one back!

So elegant!
These were a little less sparkly and shiny than I had hoped, but nevertheless gorgeous. They really pulled my look together, I always I go for statement earrings rather than necklaces and other jewelry. They're clip-on, which I never wear, but I'm glad they were because they get HEAVY after a while. Stunning design, versatile, highly recommend!

Felt like a modern Cinderella!
The color of this dress was so soft and feminine- it really popped on stage! It gave me a Grace Kelly/Cinderella feel. I'm usually a size 2, but after reading reviews, I went for a 4 and it fit perfectly. I have about a 25 -26 in. waist on any given day, and it was a little snug, but not uncomfortable. HIGHLY a recommend googling an actual Reem Acra size chart before renting. I'm 5'2 and wore VERY tall platform 5 1/2 inch heels, and the length was perfectly touching the ground.

Didn't want to send it back!
GREAT fit and color! The fabric is stretchy so it's comfortable and easy to get on, and you can't really go wrong if you order your size. I was afraid that the sleeves would make my shoulders look too broad, but I was wrong. Great dress!

Gorgeous gown, SIZE UP!
Such a beautiful gown, great color. If you haven't heard already, Reem Acra runs small. Like 2 sizes small. I usually wear a 2/4, and I need to get a 6/8 to fit into this. Unfortunately I had to send it back, but it's stunning!

It was too big, but beautiful :(
The color was stunning and the dress itself was gorgeous, but I had to send it back because it was too loose around the waist and bust area. I'm usually a size 2, sometimes 0, and the zero was still a little big. I recommend going a size down for girls with smaller busts and waists. No complaints with the service, of course. RTR is the best!

Won my pageant with the help of this dress!
I rented this because I needed a black cocktail dress for onstage introduction at a pageant. I sparkled on stage and it really helped me stand out! The material is pretty stretchy, but I would definitely recommend going a size up as a backup. The only thing I did not like was that the edges got a little itchy with the sequins, but nothing annoying or distracting. It's a very simple dress that would look good on many body types, but tall girls might have a problem with the length. I'm only 5'1 and i had to wear shorts under it, it was pretty short. Great dress!

Perfect for spring! I wanted to keep it!
I rented this for an easter egg hunt event, and it was absolutely stunning. The color is VERY bright, but still very tasteful and fun. To make sure I rented the right size, I looked up the Lilly Pulitzer sizing chart. It fit like a glove and I was actually really sad when I had to send it back :( DEFINITELY recommend to anyone- short or tall!
