Gorgeous, heavy, show piece!

Fit was perfect, it is a heavy one though. The ends are sharper that I expected so be careful with that otherwise a gorgeous piece that got lots of compliments.

Beautiful Color, ridged construction

The purse is gorgeous; was a beautiful color and I loved all of the pocket options. Getting in and out of the bag was annoying though. The buckle part was fine but filing the straps through each loop every time got old (but it looked best that way) . Liked that you could switch from a clutch to a large cross body!

Bright colors and flowy!

This tank is very forgiving on the stomach but having 36Ds even with a sticky bra cup that's flat I still felt like it made my top look large/wide. Perfect though for a hot summer work day and beautiful colors!

Romantic Red for New Years Eve!

This dress is so fantastic; I had so many compliments throughout the night and it was easily the best red dress in the room! I wore a 10R, but at 5'8" should have rented the Long, it had just already been rented. The dress does run snug in the hips, loose in the bust; I went bra-less because I am a 34D, and just about filled out the top, but it would definitely be a better fit, no gapes if you find a bra that doesn't expose straps in the back. I would definitely recommend!

Gorgeous Color, Too Much Fabric

I planned to ware this while singing a cocktail hour at a wedding on NYE; the dress was too much fabric! Most people that have rented or worn cape dresses might have known this but I had no idea how heavy it would feel. This could have been because my size 10 was already rented so I had to go up 1 size too large. The color was gorgeous but the morning of the event I decided it was WAY too much work to steam it out and it was just too heavy. Love the designer through and ended up wearing another style from the same line.

What a statement!

This necklace is gorgeous and quality in person! Chains and tons of detail can look cheap quickly but not this necklace. Absolutely beautiful in person; paired it with the nude/black Elizabeth and James dress.

Gorgeous dress, tons of compliments!

I wore this dress to my boyfriend's sisters wedding; this was absolutely gorgeous in person and tasteful for meeting his family members. The dress is a rich Royal Blue and the dress is VERY well made. I fit into the 8 just fine but felt that the 10 was more conservative with regard to fit (not being too tight) as well as the length hitting closer to my knee. The lace is stunning, but with that if you have more of a muscular or built upper body you will want to size up as it does not stretch like the body of the dress does. I highly recommend this dress!

Gorgeous Dress, Runs Small

I absolutely LOVED this dress from the time I pulled it out of the box. Quality fabric, but it does not give at all. The 8 was taken the weekend I needed the dress so I went for the 6 just in case and i could zip it up as in pictures but it was very tight. This is a great dress but does not look good on all body types. My best girlfriend who is a 4/6 tried this on and while it wasn't as snug on her, the dress did nothing for her longer and slender torso and smaller bust. My other best friend who is similar to me but with a larger chest it also did not quite fit right. I would recommend this for women with shorter waists and a bust between a B and 'small' D cup. Also - size 1 up more than you think, the 8 would have been perfect. All in all gorgeous color, but not for every body type.

Gorgeous color, not the right neckline.

I ended up not wearing this because I did not like how the necklace fanned out once laying on my collar. The materials are not cheap at all and the color is beautiful in person. Just not quite the right neckline for my look.

I received compliments on this knockout all night. Very elegant, but it is a little heavy if you're ok with that style. Absolutely loved this with my dress, also a RTR winner :)

Old Hollywood glam for a company gala!

The dress felt like butter, absolutely comfortable, elegant and gorgeous in person. I got the 8 just in case but with silk went for the 10 not to have it pucker in the hips. Going up did force me to use double stick tape on the dress to make sure I stayed in place but it was no trouble all night. LOVE this gown. Note: it does NOT part in front as much as the photo implies. The slit is far more subtle in person. Paired with the Oscar patina. Compliments all night.

I rented this dress for a holiday party in Minneapolis and absolutely loved it! Tons of compliments.

The dress is more fitted but VERY flattering, I felt like it had a slimming impact on my entire body including the arms. I am 5'8" and have an athletic build and thought it was a great length for my height. I highly recommend this rental!
