Beautifully detailed dress!
This may be the most beautiful RTR dress I have ever worn. The embroidery was very detailed and gorgeous! The light pink is more of a salmon color. I wore it to a spring wedding, and I received compliments all afternoon. I am normally a size 4 (5'4", 122 pounds, 34D). I ordered a 4 and a 2 and wore the 4. It does run a tad small through the mid section (ribs and waist) but is roomy below the waist if you are a little hippy. I wore a strapless bra but could have gotten away with no bra at all as I felt very supported when snugly zipped in. The zipper itself was very stiff , and I could not zip it up myself. I needed my husband to get zipped and unzipped -- he did not complain. :-) The length for me was at my knees. I paired it with wine suede shoes. The size 2 they sent me was definitely too small for me but was also damaged -- had a snag in the tulle in the front. I would have been so upset if that was the size that I needed. I called customer service to alert them of the problem with the size 2, and they assured me they would make a notation on my file and that I would not be charged for damage. I would definitely rent this one again.

Plum lace romper is a big hit!
I rented this for my daughter to wear to a Coast Guard affair. She loved it -- very classy but with lots of leg -- she's got the legs for it. Her normal size is 2 or 4 and she wore the 2 and had plenty of room. She is 5'5" and the body length was perfect. Loved the eggplant/purple color! No bra needed but strapless would work. Highly recommend and would definitely rent again.

Cute and comfortable graduation dress for my daughter.
Rented this one for my daughter's college graduation. She is normally a 2 - 4. She wore the 4 and it was perfect -- 5'5" tall, 34 B, 118 pounds. The lace was soft and comfortable. Could easily be dressed up or down. It is short -- several inches above the knee. Sheer at shoulders so either a strapless or no bra if you can. Would definitely rent again and recommend this one.

Awesome dress but a little snug for a larger bust.
Loved this dress so much even though I did not end up wearing it. I normally wear a 4 (I'm 5'4 and 122 pounds) and ordered a 4 and 6 backup. Even the 6 was too snug on my 34 C/D bust but fit great everywhere else, and being a wrap, it is easily adjustable around the middle. I tried a cami under it, but it still was tugging too much for my comfort. The fabric was light and airy and the prints mixed together made this so unique and definitely my style. Sleeve length was nice just above the elbow, and the length for me was just at/slightly above the knee. I think I would try again and maybe rent the 8 -- it was that cute!!

Alternate gown but did not wear.
This dress was ordered as a back-up/alternate gown for my daughter, but she did not end up wearing it. It's not obvious in the photo by the way she is standing with a knee bent, but the 2R length was very short. I would suggest anyone over 5"4" that plans on wearing heels should order the Long length. In the photo she has no shoes on, so even with a 3" heel, it was too short. The style of the dress is gorgeous, true to size, and fit like a glove -- very supportive and comfortable as well. She plans to order this again for her next formal event but get the longer length.

Wonderful evening at the U.S. Coast Guard Academy Graduation Ball
I rented this dress for my daughter to wear to the Coast Guard Academy Graduation Ball. As others have said, it runs very small. She normally wears a 2R and with this one even the 4R was a bit snug. This particular gown was not in pristine condition -- one under-wire was missing and the center front stay was poking through the fabric . She had to wear a band-aid so that the stay would not cut her skin. The regular length was perfect for a 5'5" woman with 4" heels. The design itself is gorgeous. Very comfortable and easy to move and dance in all evening. The *navy* color is slightly on the dark teal side and very pretty. Definitely recommend the style, but hopefully this particular gown will be taken out of rotation due to wear.

Beautiful, well-made cocktail dress was a hit!
I rented this dress for my 20-year-old daughter to wear to a holiday party we were attending together. My dress on the left in the photo is also RTR. Her dress was beautifully made and very figure flattering. She wore the 2 (5'5", 34C). The dress was above the knee but not as short as it appears shorter on the model on the website. Lace is very soft. The dress was lined fully so the tulle at bottom was not scratchy on the legs. NOTE: Some of the photos shared on RTR show the black lace to be shorter with more nude tulle exposed for some reason. She received compliments all evening and all were surprised our dresses were RTR.

So many compliments on this dress, and really enjoyed the surprised faces when I told them about RTR
This is a beautiful dress and received compliments all night long! I wore the Small (5'4", 120 pounds, 34 C/D bra) and it fit like a glove. Just enough stretch to be comfortable and could easily sit and move around with no problem. I decided against wearing a strapless bra under it because the sides are sheer, and I also felt that my snug bra caused lumps that were not attractive. I feel it was a smoother fit that way, and the top was snug enough that it gave me the support I needed. Coverage was good. Length was just at my knee -- looks a little shorter on the tall model on the website. I have a straight body type, and I feel the design helped give me a figure. By the way, my daughter's dress on the right was also RTR.
