Beautiful Dress - but the top is not great.
This dress is gorgeous in-person, I love the sheen, the peach/pink florals. Both 8 and 10 were in great condition. Inside is satin and slides on easily. I didn't end up wearing this because of the way the top of it fit. Much as other users warned... the back was too low to wear a bra (not to mention it has mesh sides, but I was willing to not worry about that). I wear about a 34DD and 5'2" with kind of a short torso, and the front, though thick, is not hugging and not supportive. Because the front V is so deep, I just saw a lot of my boob sag from a side angle. The back was also gaping on the straps if I didn't stand just right. I had RTR swap the dress rather than try to tape my boobs up and OUT to be more conservative, I wanted to look classy for this wedding. If it was a more informal affair I may have risked the extra cleavage. I also was afraid I could pop-out while dancing.

Dress is ok, but RTR Customer Service is TOP NOTCH!
This dress is adorable. AND it has pockets. However, it is not intended to flatter my body type. Currently I am 5'2", about 140lbs, 34D/36C ish bra. I carry my weight in my stomach. Long story short I wore the 8, because the zipper was completely stuck, so I couldn't get it off and would have preferred to wear the 10. It's very snug around the waist, no give (on both 8 & 10). The chest area was too small on both dresses as well, so I felt it was flattening my boobs into my chest and then popping them up creating cupage overflow. Though no one could see this, I didn't feel smooth and rounded. I am short, so I felt the back straps were loose and gapping in the back. I was able to wear a regular bra, but even with the strap holder on the shoulder it still poked out. I don't regret wearing or renting it, but I wouldn't rent it again because it was not comfortable.

Gorgeous, Comfortable, and has pockets!
Love this dress. Love that it has pockets. Seemed true to size. The back was a little low, so I still wore a nude, regular bra but had a contraption on the hooks to help pull the back part down to keep it hidden At first it felt as though the sequins would rub under my arms, but as the night went on I didn't even notice. Would definitely recommend this dress.

This dress is stunning!
I wore this to a friend's wedding, and received so many compliments, and requests to find out where I got it. My boyfriend has even since asked if I wanted to wear that to his holiday party, not realizing I didn't own it. It's gorgeous, but it's snug. I ordered 6/8 and wore the 8, but wish I had ordered 8/10. I like this dress so much I might consider renting again.

Comfortable and Sparkly!
The colors are hard to tell from the website, but I think it is more of a nude underlay, with a silver overlay, and a light gold belt. I wore it with nude flats, and a gold clutch. This was for a low key New Years Eve. I could have worn the 8, but the 10 was more comfortable. The dress doesn't have any give so I am glad I ordered 8/10 vs 6/8. It wasn't too snug in any parts though. I recommend it as an easy to wear dress. Very pretty.

So Delicate Dress

I wore this for a High School friend's wedding.
I ordered both a 6 and an 8. I tried both on for my friend, and she couldn't tell a lot of difference. Obviously the 6 fit snugger, but since she said it was still flattering I went with it. It was comfortable. I was showing a little more cleavage than I intended, but I just used a shawl for the ceremony, and during the reception it was fine. When I sit down the lace above the cinching poofs a little, but nothing that bothered me too much. I was not SO in love with it that I would purchase it (even at the right price), but the rental price was great (I have 7 weddings this year, so it's better than having to keep buying). I received a few compliments. It hugs the thighs legs a little, so when there were large steps it was a tinsy bit constricting. I felt like i could eat though, which is usually my goal though! Overall I recommend it.
