Charity event hit.
This dress was a hit. True to size. I wore it for a charity event for a client. It was perfect for the colder weather.

So Many Compliments!!!
This dress was amazing. Stretchy. Flattering. Loved it. The church was warm therefore I was SUPER warm but other than that, perfect for a fall wedding. I received SO many compliments on it. I'm thinking about renting this same brand for my birthday!!! Make sure to wear a backless or low back bra.

These Earrings were Gorgeous!!!!
I've never received more compliments on jewelry. For being large, I almost forgot they were on. The stud is in the middle flower which made a lot of people question "how it worked" because the little flower covers up your ear. Very pretty!

I loved the asymmetrical hem. It was really gorgeous.
The material is very thin and not very forgiving. I wore spanx under the dress but still felt lumpy due to the fabric. The neckline is very flattering though!

Cobalt Asymmetric Gown
HALSTON
Size Worn: 14R
Usual Size: 14
Height: 5' 8"
Bust: 38C
This dress runs extremely small. The cut outs are high and I did not end up wearing it.
I have always been able to fit into a 10 or 12 from any designer and I could not get the 12 to zip around my rib cage. I noticed that if you have a chest at all, the cutouts went high and could have been a little more revealing than intended. The material of the dress reminded me of the thin foam packing material that they put around fragile items. Lesson learned - don't rent brand new dresses from RTR that have not been reviewed.

Blue Porter Dress
Hunter Bell
Size Worn: None
Usual Size: 12
Height: 5' 8"
Weight: 170lbs
Bust: 38D
The dress was very light material which was great for a summer wedding.
I have a large bust which is why I went for the 12 over the 10. The waist/hips were a little looser than preferred but it turned out ok because I love to get down on the dance floor :)
