Obsessed

I am so in love with this dress. It was wildly comfortable, flowed beautifully, and I felt like the main character in a Jane Austen romance novel.

Gorgeous for Spring Wedding!

This dress was perfect for a mid-May wedding. Received many compliments. Length is long. I am 5’7” and wore about a 1.5 in heel, but still lifted the dress a bit to walk- especially up stairs. The a-line, like many stated, is tight (so though I fit in the 0, the 2 allowed me to wear a strapless bra). I pinned the ribbon/bow so that it didn’t droop below the a-line stitching. Danced all night without an issue!

Love!

Definitely size up! I went bigger (from a 10 to a 12), let the straps all the way out, and used a little clip on the back to make the straps into an X. It made this very long dress the perfect length for me with my 3.5 inch heels! I felt pretty AND comfortable - a rare combo :)

Simply elegant and felt like I was floating

I loved this dress! Worn for a formal event in a country barn and it was perfect for the summer evening. I wore 18 long ; I'm 5'11 length was perfect and I was able to wear open toe flats because no one could see my feet. I would say this is true to size. Got a lot of compliments on how beautiful the dress was. Would highly recommend! Will rent again

Beautiful dress with high-quality material

I loved everything about this dress, but it was too long for me. I am 5'7", but even with 3 inch heels, the dress still dragged on the floor.

Gorgeous

Fits silky smooth, dreamy pattern and easy to dance in. Runs long though I wore kitten heals and the regular length was a tad too long. If I wore standard heels perhaps it would have been more ideal. Thanks to the previous reviews I didn't order the LONG for my 5'8 frame plus heels.

So pretty

It was pretty busty and tight across my chest. We made some changes for bow placement and I had to order two sizes to find the right fit. Straps were adjustable and I probably could have stood one more size up for the chest area. It's long- yes. However- I got so many compliments and I felt pretty for the first time in 8mths! Great for a country garden vibe wedding.

It was perfect for a black tie wedding. It was truly full length which I struggle to find at my height. May be tight if you have a larger bust.

Long, so very long

I wear a 14/16 normally and wore the 18L to a formal wedding. I only got this size because it was available and I wanted/needed this specific dress for this wedding pictures. The bust was too big, and the straps loosened themselves or became loose when I stepped on the dress, either way, we were adjusting them throughout the night. The waist fit well due to a medical issue that day that caused swelling but it made the dress look less flattering. The length was an issue throughout the night as I knew it would be. The bow didn't like to stay tied and would slide down or come undone while dancing. Overall, it's a beautiful dress but I spent a huge chunk of the night fixing it. I wish I had just changed into the different dress I took as backup.

Wore it to HS graduation. Got plenty of compliments. Was a bit on the long side but with heels or platforms it's good, had to lift it on stairs. Surprisingly light for all the material on the skirt. Would rent again for a special occasion.

Summer formal wedding

The dress fit is quirky: runs small in the bust and LONG in the skirt. I tried 4 sizes (4R, 4L, 6R & 6P) and settled on 6R, but the skirt length was a little treacherous for dancing! Fortunately, the dress and I survived without an accident.

Gorgeous! Size Up!

I wore this to a Black Tie wedding in NYC. It was gorgeous! It fit well with the vibe of the wedding because of the floral pattern. But definitely size up!! I have an athletic frame (broad shoulders, wide ribcage, narrow hips) and normally wear a size 14 in dresses (unless there is elastic/smocking, in which case I can go smaller), but I was a size 18 in this. Other reviews said to size up 1 or 2 sizes, so I ordered 16 and 18 and I'm glad I did! The 18 fit well. I could've worn it with a strapless bra, but that made it a bit too tight around my ribs, so I chose to use boob tape instead. I'm a 38C and I didn't trust the straps to hold my boobs up/keep them looking good while wearing the dress, so I'm glad I had boob support! I also discovered that the straps were different lengths, so it took me a second to realize why it was lopsided when I first put it on! Bathroom mirror pic is with strapless bra, pic at event is with boob tape. My ribcage (aka bottom of bra band) measures 38", and my bust measures 42". I measured the tightest part of the wait section of the dress (where the ribbon wraps around) -- for size 16, it was 18" (lie flat, pulling it taught), and for size 18 it was 19" (lie flat, pulling it taught). I hope that helps for your sizing adventures!! Other people reported that the dress was long too, and I'm 5'8" and wore 4" platform heels, and the length was perfect for me, probably an inch off the floor. Though I will say, I def stepped on the dress when walking up stairs!! But maybe that's just because I don't know how to wear maxis!!

Loved it!!! Uber girly!

I’m 5’11” and I rented the regular length and long length. I would up wearing the regular length with kitten heels just because I wanted shoes to show. These dresses run very long. If I had work the long with the kitten heels, the dress would brush the ground. I don’t personally think this read is good for larger chests I’m a 34b and it just fit. Love the dress. Beautiful pattern, light, comfortable material.

Loved it - beautiful and sexy!

I wore this dress for a black tie wedding we attended in Miami and it was PERFECT! I loved it so much. It was way outside my everyday comfort zone, which made it all the more fun. I read through all the reviews and saw the theme about being pretty revealing if you have a bust and it was, but I was prepared. I couldn’t wear my typical strapless bra, but got a silicone cup backless bra and that worked perfectly. My first dress came with a strap hanging on for dear life. I contacted customer service and they got me two new dresses and thankfully one of them worked! I can absolutely see why these straps could get easily pulled, so just something to look for when you rent! This was my first RTR rental, but definitely will not be my last!

Outdoor Wedding

I wore this lovely dress to an outdoor wedding in March in Texas. I’m so glad — it was a hot and humid affair but the thin straps and loose skirt kept me more comfortable than my hubby in his tux! Love this dress - would buy in a heartbeat. Only issue is the straps were not adjustable so we’re slightly loose on my shoulders. Also, there was another woman at the event who rented this dress as well!! She was pregnant so this one is very bump friendly.

Felt beautiful and comfortable, petite still a little long

I wore the 6P at 12 weeks pregnant - no issues with my emerging/bloated belly, however, my growing boobs felt more on display than usual. But as seen in the pic, I guess it didn’t look too much from the front. I did love the pattern and the bow and felt beautiful. At 5’3” the petite was still a tad long with heels on.

Bridgerton Beauty

This was the perfect dress for a Bridgerton-themed high tea. It fit like a dream and the quality to top notch. The fabric was substantial and moved beautifully. Something to consider: I’m 5’1” and needed to wear 6-inch platform heels to pull off this look. Worth it.

Perfect for a formal summer event

I had gained some weight so my original dress (size 2) didn’t fit. I had to order some replacements and luckily it made it to our house in the nick of time (thank you RTR and UPS!). This dress fit like a glove on this 5’1” 127 lb body with a size 4P. I was comfortable and enjoyed our formal affair feeling pretty.

Beautiful dress!

This dress was great! It is very small in the chest area though. I am normally a size 18. The size 20 fit perfectly at the waist but was way too small in the chest. The 22 was slightly big at the waist (the adjustable belt helped here) but fit much more comfortably in the chest. I definitely recommend sizing up two sizes. A lot of reviews mention the dress being too long, but it was the perfect length for me with just 3in heels.

DO NOT RENT IF YOU HAVE A LARGE CHEST

This dress is gorgeous and the quality is great, but as other reviews have said—it runs very tight in the chest. I saw the reviews and sized up. It diy everywhere else but I ended up not being able to wear it bc it was so tight up too it even started ripping a bit. I was so disappointed because it’s gorgeous and for smaller chested women it’ll be perfect but sizing up anymore would made the dress impossibly long. Big boob bettie’s beware!

Loved this dress!

After renting 3 other dresses, I decided on this one! Definitely would advise sizing up by one size if you’re heavier chested. I’m normally a size 2, but I went with a size 4 since I’m a 34 D or DD. The chest was tight but it helped keep them up without wearing a bra. The adjustable straps helped a lot too. The length just barely dragged on the floor for me and I’m 5’2.

LOVE IT!

I read all of the helpful reviews on this dress and ordered my normal size (4) and one size larger (6) and ended up going with the 4. It fit perfectly! I will say, if you have a larger chest it could be too tight in that region. Also, I got the petite version was the perfect length since I am 5'3. Would recommend to anyone, I got so many compliments!

Runs small! Size up

I typically wear a size 10, maybe an 8 if there is stretch or it’s not fitted in the hips, but I needed a 12 in this! The 10 barely zipped so thank goodness the 12 was my backup size. At 6’ tall the 12L was perfect with flats, I got compliments and had fun wearing this dress :)

A true beauty!

I absolutely love this dress! If you have a larger chest (like me) definitely order a size up and also for your second size GET 2 sizes up!!! I am a 36D and my chest could barely fit into one size up thank goodness I rented two sizes up as I ended up wearing the larger one. 10 out of 10 would rent again so stunning tons of compliments all night perfect for summer wedding.

I felt summery and pretty!

I was the groom's sister, but not in the wedding, and this dress was perfect because it matched the colors and made me feel fancy and special. It's true the bust is smaller like I'd read beforehand, but I'm small chested anyway so it was perfect for me. It's long if you're more torso than leg, I wore heels and it was fine. Didn't trip over the skirt at all. The straps are also adjustable, which I didn't realize from photos and that helps the fit a lot. Light and breathable for hot weather too!
