The color and shape were perfect for a Spring wedding!

I absolutely loved everything about this dress! The style was girly, but not overly so, and classic, but in a chic and on-trend kind of way. I found the dress to be extremely flattering on my body type, which is fairly straight and narrow, and the style easy to dress up or "down". I initially wanted to order a size 2 as my backup, however, RTR was out of that size for the weekend I needed it. I ended up ordering only the 0 and crossing my fingers. Luckily it fit, though it was a bit tight under my arms and rode up a little when I went to sit down (I'm assuming this wouldn't have been an issue with the 2). If you're thinking of renting this dress, go for it! You won't be disappointed.

Being told by the maid of honor that I "killed it"

The other reviewers weren't kidding when they said this was one of the best dresses on the website. Uber-chic, perfectly draped, and fits like a glove. I wore a UK8 (size US2 according to RTR), and it fit very comfortably, with room in the waist and bust. I fit the UK6 as well, but it was a little tight in the shoulder; I figured there wasn't any point to feeling "strapped in" all night long if the UK8 worked just as well. Overall, a perfect dress for a fall wedding, and, of course, excellent CS from RTR.

A gorgeous dress and fantastic customer service to boot!

This is my third time renting from RTR and has been my most favorite rental to date. The dress itself is impeccably constructed from a decently thick silk/satin fabric that has a diagonal weave throughout. I found the peplum to be extremely flattering, especially for someone like me who has a fairly nonexistent waist. Additionally, the peplum hit at a length that did not make me appear too short-waisted, which is a big pet peeve of mine on many dresses that feature peplum accents. Despite reviews stating that the bottom was too big, I didn't find it overly roomy or ill-fitted. If anything, it just gave the appearance that the dress was more structured and sheath-like in style. I will say that the bodice is very fitted, so it may pose some problems for women who are bustier (I'm between a 32 B and C, and actually wore the dress without a bra). I had originally ordered a 2 and 4 (I'm normally a 2 at BR and JCrew; 0 at Ann Taylor), but was told by the staff at RTR a day before my rental was to be shipped out that the 4 had been irreparably damaged; regardless, they were more than happy to send me any dress of my choice, should the 2 not work out. I'm glad it did, but was equally impressed with RTR's handling of the situation. Can't wait until my next rental!

Bright, cheery color makes for a stand-out dress!

I ordered this dress to wear to a spring wedding. It has a very flattering fit-and-flare style to it, and the fabric had a lot of stretch, which made it very comfortable to wear and move around in. The only downside (maybe) is that it runs a little shorter than I was expecting (I'm 5'8" and the ceremony was held in a Catholic church), so if you are attending a more conservative event, I might pass on it. That being said, the hem of the dress was the same length as my fingertips, which I hear is a good rule of thumb for skirt-lengths to begin with. Needless to say, it's a beautiful, fun dress that garnered many compliments throughout the night; another RTR success!

A great addition to a stunning dress!

I loved the mystery bling! The stylist did a great job of picking out complimentary accessories (a pair of earrings); would definitely recommend!

Absolutely beautiful! The perfect complement to my dress

These earrings were included as part of my Mystery Bling. As it seems the case for a lot of Mystery Bling rentals, I would have never picked these out on my own, but they looked stunning paired with the dress I also rented through RTR (Gatsby Soiree gown). They were a little heavy, but definitely not so much that it made them uncomfortable to wear. Would wholeheartedly recommend!

Lovely, vintage-inspired gown; perfect for a special occasion!

I rented this gown for a wedding that was Great Gatsby themed. It was PERFECT and I received nothing but compliments on it the whole night. A few notes on the color and fit, as there seem to be some discrepancies in the picture and/or reviews. The color, in my opinion, could best be described as a neutral nude/buff...kind of like the color of medium toned liquid foundation. I am very pale (paler than the model probably), and the color did not wash me out. Regarding the size, I would NOT recommend this dress for taller ladies, unless you were looking for a very vintage/1920s look. I ordered and wore the SL and it came to about my ankles (I'm 5'8" and wore 3.5" heels). Overall, the look was perfect for the event, and I'm very satisified with the whole RTR experience.
