Winter wedding jumpsuit
This was perfect for a less formal Colorado winter wedding reception! Would have preferred to wear pumps but it was -2 outside so black booties worked well. Definitely plan on having fashion tape with you if you’re not large-chested, I needed it to prevent gaping (I’m a 34C). The seams in the top are kinda funky so I had to play around with taping it so it looked okay, but it’s a really fun jumpsuit and the velvet is perfect for warm weather

Fantastic dress - maternity or not!
I work this dress at just over 8 months pregnant and it was perfect! So comfortable and the color is fantastic. It would have looked great non-maternity as well. I’m smaller chested and chose the M because it was a bit more comfortable up top (S was too tight along stitching); I’d be weary if you have a broader chest. Ceremony was outside so I sweat a little and the outline of the spots never fully went away when they dried out, not super noticeable but good to note if you’re worried about that.

My favorite RTR dress EVER!!
This is the dress of my dreams!! I wore to an engagement party at 5 months pregnant (size S) and it worked perfectly. It is a bit booby, but I think it adds to the fit and flare of the dress. I wore nippies, I could see fashion tape having also been a good add-on too as the top tended to gape a bit when I’d sit down.

Sleek and sexy
I agree with other reviews - this dress is great for us ladies with a small bust! At 32B I felt like it had just enough coverage. Fit like a glove, not a ton of flexibility on the lower half but I prefer that fit and was still able to do some dancing throughout the night. Beautiful fall color!

The summer bold and bright color you need!
LOVE LOVE LOVE this jumpsuit, cannot recommend it enough! It was perfect for a wedding at a gallery and I received compliments all night. So fun to color block with other bold colors! I'm 5'4" and other reviews mentioned it was a little long for us shorter gals and I am glad I had platform sandals to offset the length. I also agree that it might not be best for larger chests - I'm a 32B and felt that maybe a C cup would be the last cup size the jumpsuit would fit "comfortably".

FAVORITE RENTAL EVER
This has probably topped all my other RTR rentals over the years - it's just that fabulous and chic and perfect for winter events! So many compliments everywhere I went. I paired with sheer tights and ended wearing it 3x in one weekend as I had 3 different holiday events. The velvet is gorgeous, the silver glitter gives an amazing sparkle. True to size and would be great for larger chested ladies too (I have a small chest and there was plenty of room to spare). RENT THIS!!!

Loved for wedding!
This dress hugs in all the right places with little room to spare, but still has some stretch to it. I loved it for the wedding I wore it to! I am pear shaped so it did gather at my hips occasionally and I had to pull down, but I feel that a size 6 would have been too small up top. Beautiful yellow color! #wedding

Sparkles, glitz - so fun!
I wore this dress for my 32nd birthday party out at karaoke, it was a perfectly sparkly and fun skirt for the occasion! I'm pear shaped so I needed to use the larger M size to zip over my booty. The slit was higher than I was anticipating which was a little uncomfortable for me personally, but I embraced it as the night went on. #party #birthdayskirt

Unique, sparkly, and flattering!
Wore this dress to a black tie optional NYE wedding. It was perfect for the occasion and I received so many compliments! The ombré sequins are fabulous and muted enough that they aren't overly-sparkly / make you stand out too much. I loved the one-arm look as well, it really gives the dress a unique flare. I have hips and a booty, so although the small fit well it was very form fitting, especially in that area. Some may want to consider Spanx etc. Highly recommend this dress!

Perfect birthday top!
The XS is true to size, I usually wear a size S but it wasn't available when I went to rent. Still looked great! Very good quality and a rich, dark blue. Paired it with black jeans and some gold chokers for a perfect fall birthday look!

Gorgeous color and design!
This dress is a beautiful turquoise color and fits like a glove! I received compliments all night, perfect for a December wedding in Florida. I am usually a size 4 but ended up wearing the backup size 6; I have a booty and found that it was too tight on the 4 so it created lines across the front of the dress. The 6 fit much better, highly recommend!

I received so many compliments on this formal jumpsuit, a truly unique and stunning outfit!!
I'm generally a S, but ended up wearing the XS because of my smaller bust size and the length. The S jumpsuit was too baggy for me in the chest area, but if you are a C-cup or larger it would have been fine. At 5'4" I felt like the XS was also less baggy in the pants part. Overall the XS jumpsuit was a little tight-fitting (like wearing a corset), but didn't hinder my ability to dance and eat the delicious food throughout the night!

What a gorgeous, unique dress! I received so many compliments throughout the night!!
It fit like a glove! I did end up wearing a size down from what I normally am so definitely request a smaller size as your second size. The length is conservative so it's very appropriate for a more formal affair, although the open back gives the dress a fun flare! I wore this to my organization's gala "An Evening in China" and it was a perfect mix of exotic and formal.
