Fun and flirty
I love this dress so much I want to buy it. It’s easy to wear and made me feel like a million bucks but it also wasn’t over the top. If you are in between sizes I would go down a size. It wasn’t too short for me at 5-4 and it was blousy so I had to wear the top tied which was fine with me. Photographs really well.

Shirin Blouson Dress

Bust: 34C
Comfy, warm, huge pockets
I brought this dress to London and it was perfect for the 40 degree weather. Comfortably fit over sweater dresses and the pockets fit so much. In this photo I have my gloves and hat in both pockets and some how you cant see that. I also fit a 17oz water bottle in them. I wasn’t sure about the material because it looks almost shaggy in person but I ended up loving the worn in/cozy look.

Beautiful design but small opening
The bag itself is beautiful. Slightly heavy and a very small interior. The opening barely fit my iPhone. On the inside I could fit my phone, a card case and a lipstick and at times it was hard to zip up.

very feminine and flowy, but tight on top
I loved the dress, but it hit me very tight at the waist which made it a little uncomfortable to wear. I almost wore it b/c my husband loved it so much, but I decided to go with my back-up dress instead.

Cross my Heart Gown

the dress wore me
I felt like this dress was too heavy, too long, and too...much for my shape. I'm 5-4 and a pear. I think it would be lovely on someone taller or with a slightly bigger bust and shoulders. I just felt like it was wearing me, and not the other way around. Zipper needed pliers and an extra set of hands to get up, even though there was room in the top.

Beautiful dress. You'll feel like a million $
Gorgeous. The 2R fit perfectly with 3 inch heels, and was stretchy enough to fit over my curves. However, it shows ALL your curves, so embrace it. I wore a slip from my waist down (did not use anything to cinch in my stomach, but that would have been useful) and I wore a NuBra. This dress is also very comfortable. Warming, there is a little "train" in the back, so you will need to carry around the back of the dress when walking up and down stairs, etc.

feels lovely on, very special
The fit is perfect and its is incredibly soft. The fur will come off on your outfit underneath, so you might want to avoid dark or bright colors (or cottons) when pairing this shall with your outfit.

fun and different
Loved these earrings. They are fun. A little weighty (I'm someone who doesn't like a lot of weight on my ears), but they were not too heavy and did not bother me.

perfect dress for opening night at the Opera
This dress is beautiful and fits very nicely. It's special without being too flashy, but is different enough to get attention. You will feel beautiful in this dress. I am more of a pear shape, but the top didn't feel too lose (there was room for more in the bust, but maybe not for someone over a D cup), and the skirt was perfect (not too tight). The lace is very delicate; some of the lace was starting to separate from the lining, but its very minimal and not noticeable. The clasp at the nape of the neck came undone a few times, I think it just needs to be bent back into shape.

Totally different look
The fit is amazing on this dress and its very comfortable to wear. I've rented several dresses from RTR, but this one got the most compliments. Everyone else was wearing lace, LBDs, and sequins...this dress stuck out from the crowd.

fun color!
I ordered a 4 and a 2, and wore the 2 b/c I'm smaller on top and the skirt flares away from the hips. It fit like a glove. I was very happy with the fit, the color, and the pockets! The fabric is mid-weight and there is a lining. It might be a tad too warm for a true summer event, but it was perfect for a mid-September wedding.

This was a very sparkly accessory. It's not my usual style, but my husband loved it. One of the little stones had come off in the shipment, but no one noticed. Wore them anyways.

Lovely colors, not meant for pear shaped girls
I'm up currently a few lbs from my normal weight and I'm a typical pear. My hips are currently at 37" and the 4 didn't fit...at all. I'm glad I sized up for my back-up size, but the top was way to big on me. Thankfully, my husband was able to pin the sides in, but even then the fit was still big. All that being said, I still wore the dress and was complemented all night. I think the pattern and colors are lovely and it was fun to wear. I recommend this for more straight and narrow girls, and those not much taller than 5-6" b/c the dress is also pretty short.

Flattering and comfortable!
This is my 5th rental and possibly my favorite dress so far. This dress is different and feels special, but is very versatile so you can wear it to a bar, a wedding, NYE party...etc. The colors are actually light grey and black (with a little sheen in the fabric), not white and black as it appears to be on the model. The cap sleeves are very flattering on girls who might not like their shoulders and the waist isn't tight at all. I'm a true size 4 and this dress fit perfectly. If you want to choose a back-up size I'd go smaller unless you have a big bust or broad shoulders...then I'd go up a size.

Super fun dress
This dress was a lot of fun to wear and I got a ton of compliments. It was also very comfortable with a soft lining. Caution: it is however really short. I'm 5-4 and while the dress hit at the tip of my finger tips, I couldn't raise my arms or bend over...at all. I recommend cute little boy shorts to pair with this...and only wear this dress if you'll be standing most of the night. I am usually a size 4 (pear shaped) and I wore the size 2.

tighter than expected
I'm usually between a size 2-4. The 4 fit, but wasn't flattering, it was just a little too snug around the hips and I thought the material was too sheer. I ended up not wearing the dress. I don't think a size 6 would have worked either, because the bust fit perfectly. I am a "pear" shape. 32-B/C, size 27 jeans.

nice dress, chose another opti
I thought this dress was fun and a great color (more tomato red). I thought the fit was great (I'm a pear shape with a short waist). I chose not to wear it b/c I fell in love with a Nicole Miller dress. I also didn't think this red dress was as formal as I originally thought, the material is too casual.

I'm 5-4 (128ibs) a 32B, and size 6 jean and this dress was great in a Small. I received so many compliments on my dress for an August wedding and I felt so glamorous and comfortable, this dress is a boost to any gal's self esteem. The drapping is beautiful and prevents the "sack" like feeling you might expect.
