Show Stopper

This dress was truly a show stopper! It’s perfect for a black tie affair. The arms and shoulder areas were a bit big. I did have to use double sided fabric tape so it would fit correctly. But, it was overall perfect! I felt beautiful

Get ready for compliments. It was a unique gown & comfortably elegant to wear. Loved it!

Fits snuggly on the top & waist but still comfortable. Loved the train which followed behind me as I walked.

I love how it fit. It was very flattering and comfortable. It was hard to lift my arms very high, but other than that I had no issues with this dress.

Tall girls - this one’s for you!

I’m glad I ordered my usual dress size (8) plus one size up (10) because although the 8 fit, the 10 was just right. The fabric is flowing but thick and really holds you in. No stretch, so the bigger size was needed to feel comfortable sitting and dancing. The length was perfect with heels. I got so many compliments even strangers walked up to me! I felt more beautiful in this dress than even my own wedding dress! A true dream to wear!

Perfect for a black-tie affair. I got lots of compliments! Thank you, RTR!!

I rented for a black-tie mandatory affair. I requested sizes 12 and 14 (as a backup). I wore the size 12 and didn't even try on the 14. The 12 was perfect and true to size. The colors were unique and beautiful. I received so many compliments. Dress notes: The pictures on the RTR site show the colors as white, black, purple, and a touch of amber. The dress had more of a purple hue than white, which I loved. The sleeves were long on me, and when I moved up and out, the sleeves tightened on my biceps. The train tripped me up twice; it may be better to wear wedges than pumps. I needed assistance zipping it up all the way. I weigh 162, am 5’ 3”, with full hips, and 38C. I wore a strapless bra, gold and silver bauble jewelry, black Calvin Klein pumps, my nails done in OPI no-chip Bubble Bath color, and my toes in regular dark purple (I didn't get the name of the color).

Gorgeous

I took the advice from other reviewers and ordered two sizes up. I am so glad I did, it was an almost perfect fit. Yes, the top is larger than the bottom so there might be some room into the shoulders but it is just a fabulous dress.

It runs smaller if you have a fuller rib cage…I’m a 4 and it was snug in that area so I went to a 6

Lavish and beautiful

I read the other reviews that said this ran small, and to order TWO sizes up. I was skeptical, but really all of the reviews warned about it, so I ordered an 8 (I'm usually a 4), and I'm so glad I did, because the 8 fit very well, and I can't imagine fitting in a smaller one. This dress feels well made and the material is really robust. I love the high low dress and ruffles. The shoulders are a little much for my personal taste, but my husband said they looked good, so sometimes I go outside of my comfort zone. I didn't end up wearing this one because it didn't fit the vibe of the wedding I was attending, but now that I know it fits, I'll rent it for some other event!

Stunning Dress But I could not lift my arms over my head.

Who needs to move when you look and feel so wonderful. This dress is beautiful. Well made. Suitable Zipper. (zippers make or break a dress experience for me.) I am pretty tall and I wore 4 inch heels and the dress was maybe 2 inches from the floor. Ths dress might not be made for Biggest Chested Girls - this dress flattened “my girls” a bit but it went with the look. Loved this dress.

Gorgeous dress -- order one size up

Beautiful dress -- wore with 3 inch purple heels, and the back length was perfect. If you are shorter, you might have an issue with length in the back. Wore to a black tie optional wedding. Got lots of compliments. Typically wear a size 12 (or sometimes a size 10), but had to order up in this dress.

The most beautiful dress I’ve ever worn!!!

This is a 10/10 stunning dress. I sized up based on reviews. Wore a 12, I’m usually an 8 or 10. It was perfect. People couldn’t stop coming up to tell me how gorgeous my dress was. It’s absolutely stunning. I have never felt more gorgeous or glamorous in a dress. It’s better than my wedding dress. Get it now. You will not regret it. It’s to die for. Show. Stopping. Stunner. I hope someday it is mine!

The body fit well and I got a ton of compliments, but the arm cut made it impossible to lift my arms. Great for photos, but sucked for dancing.

Beautiful and unique

Fabric was luxurious. Ruffle & high/low hemline was feminine and added curves. Bodice was tight and shoulders/bust a tiny bit loose - sized up to the 4 and typically wear a 2. 2 fit but 4 was more comfy. The back hem did have a little train that I had to hold up even in tall heels. Loved it!

springtime black tie gala - nailed it!

I got so many compliments on this dress! Younger women were asking where I got it. Older women were thanking me for getting the attire memo, and wearing color! I felt glamorous and appropriately dressed! I combed through the reviews and saw all the comments on the very specific fit. Here are my notes: chest - The original size 10 smooshed my chest and was way too much cleavage. The size 12 was snug, but it wasn't so tight that I felt too constricted. This is the most restrictive part of the dress - absolutely no give. Very structured. sleeves - The sleeves were too long so I tucked the ends up to show my wrist a bit. The back was very loose across the top of my shoulders, so I used fashion tape to stick the top/flouncy parts in place. When the fashion tape gave out about 2hrs into the night, I let the dress rest wide across my shoulders and tucked my bra straps away. length - I wore 3-inch heels and the back trailed beautifully. Like other renters, I did trip on the lining a few times. In hindsight, I should have taped up the hem a little. Overall, I'm very happy with how this dress worked! It wasn't a perfect fit off the rack, but it was manageable and VERY flattering.

A night to remember

This dress is my all-time favorite! The material is thick enough to feel like good quality but not stiff or uncomfortable. I got so many compliments - even from people I didn’t know at the event. I think the neckline is very flattering and the flower print is unique. It will be a hard one to top!

Amazing but don’t size up twice…

I heeded the advice of many and went up two sizes which made the dress too big in the bust and stomach. Thankfully, it still looked amazing and I made it work. I do have broad shoulders and I wasn’t able to move my arms above my head or reach across my body. I think one size up would have been sufficient. I was stopped on the street about where I got my dress! It really is a stunner and would have been a perfect wedding guest dress. I was supposed to wear it to a formal event that was cancelled so I went for an overdressed night on the town with the hubs!

Loved this dress!

If you want a dress where you will get a ton of compliments and feel confident wearing; highly recommend it! I am 5’4” and 125 lbs and the 4 fit perfectly…I have hips and smaller bust…but I felt so great wearing it! It is a little more restrictive with the arms but that didn’t bother me; I loved not getting a spray tan wearing sleeves. Fabric very well made; high quality.

STUNNING — HEAD-TURNING!

I wore this gown to a wedding and as my boyfriend and I were walking down the street people were turning heads. Some even congratulated us thinking we were getting married. I normally wear an 8 or 10 and this I had to swap for larger sizes. I got a 12 and 14 and the 14 ceded up being the right fit! I believe this dress is European or Australian because the sizes were truly so different. Definitely size up TWO sizes! Get a backup! But trust me, this dress is worth it!!!

The top fit weird didn’t wear it

You have to really love this style and I wasn’t sure going in but since nothing else was fitting me from RTR I decided to give this a try. Everyone mentioned sizing up two sizes but in between 10/12 right now and so I tried the 14. It fit but the top just was weirdly loose. The back was very loose - we did a quick stitch two points (can be easily taken out) and made it look on purpose and it worked wonders! But ultimately I decided to go with another dress that was more my style. This dress is beautiful and makes anyone have hips and curves! My MIL tried it on with an athletic body and it looked amazing on her (but she also said she wouldn’t wear due to the style). The arms fit is loose which I think is on purpose, just looks a little weird to me. Also the length of the 14 sleeve fit long for me since I’m short so I would’ve had to use hem tape to make the sleeve not too long. I would also have to use fashion tape on the boob area to keep dress down and not flag everyone if I bent down. The size 14 fit comfortably and sitting wouldn’t be a problem. But just decided the fit and look didn’t work for me! Hope this helps!!
