inconsistent sizing
I had a 6R and8R. The 6 was too short, but the 8 was smaller around the bust. There's no give in the fabric It's a gorgeous dress but not consistent in the sizes. Disappointing.

I got a lot of compliments on this piece.
It is very heavy, but due to the size of the gems, it looked a little plasticky. It's much bigger than I anticipated.

Great piece!
It's larger than you'd think- it's heavy too so it hangs nicely. I like that you can adjust the length with the ties as well.

I loved these earrings. They were the perfect size to stand out!
The dangle enough from your ear to stand out, and have tons of sparkle. Unfortunately on the day of the event (when I actually went to put them on) one of the backs was broken so I was unable to wear them. So note to self- check them carefully before the event!

LOVE this dress!
Now, I wasn't able to wear it. My back up was damaged and the first choice size was just a bit too tight in the ribs to be comfortable. The back up would've fit perfectly so I will rent this dress again. It is not forgiving in the fabric, so if you're unsure go up a size.

This was an alternate the stylist sent due to my back up dress being damaged.
I couldn't wear the dress, it was too small on the rib cage. It is not forgiving, so if you're unsure of the size go up a size, or two. I normally wear a 6, and the 8 was too tight, I could ALMOST get it zipped up over my ribs. Very pretty material, elegant and nice movement as I walked.

Perfect!
Nice weight, not too heavy, and perfect for our formal event! I was a little concerned they would be to blingy since I normally don't wear earings like this, but my husband said they looked great.

FIts like a glove
Ok, this dress, while people say it has support, really doesn't. I would definitely recommend spanx. I was surprised as well at the length, I had a 6R and an 8R and both were really short, at my ankles. I'm 5'5", so I was surprised that I didn't read any reviews on length. I wasn't sure what size would fit me, but the 8 was way to big all around, loose to the point of not staying up. I called RTR and they overnighted me a 6L! THANK YOU!!! I was so happy I did, the 6L fit perfectly, and was just floor length with heels. 3 in I think? The only complaint is the boning in the bodice scratched me in the front, it stops just below your ribcage. But I didn't care.
