Sexy and classy

This was my first experience with her at the wrong way and I was so extremely happy that I signed up for the monthly subscription. The stress was everything I needed. I’m so glad that they sent two sizes because I did end up needing the larger one. I could’ve fit into the smaller one but it would’ve been uncomfortable. I did end up having to pin the cleavage area because it was just a bit too much with the larger size. it was a formal affair with colleagues otherwise I might have gone for the full cleavage look.

Comfortable yet stylish

I typically wear a size 16 but since formal dresses often run smaller I decided to go with an 18. The 18 was a bit big on me but very comfortable and still looked nice. I have a larger bust and that's often an issue for me but this dress had ample room in the bust. I ended up using Good Lines Boob tape because I couldn't wear a bra with the dress but still wanted some lift.

Perfect dress for my birthday photo shoot

This dress was absolutely gorgeous and the sequins made it so sparkly. It was very comfortable and sexy. I am so happy I got to wear it for my birthday. My husband took me out to a fancy restaurant and I wore it there and then wore it for my birthday photo shoot. Thank you RTR!

A definite showstopper!

This dress was great to dance the night away. It was so comfortable even while sitting down. I was complemented so many times throughout the night. It fit my large bust as well as glided right over my tummy. A definite must!

Awesome material, fantastic fit!

I rented this for a photo shoot. It fit true to size, and was nice, weighted material. It works with a regular bra, though I had to adjust the front a few times. Despite that, it was perfect for the occasion. I ordered a size smaller but didn't end up needing it. I would definitely rent again.

Stunning dress for a gala

This was an incredibly flattering dress and I highly recommend it! You'll feel like a million bucks! It's very forgiving for the hips/butt and highlights the waist in a positive way. Loved that I could wear a normal bra too.

Perfect Fit, Perfect Sparkle

This dress fit perfect. I am a consistent size 6 (I shop mostly at BR, Nordstrom). I am 5'6" and wore 4" heels and the long was definitely necessary. I was able to wear a standard bra and the dress had a nice v-neck that didn't show off extreme cleavage so it was appropriate for a formal work event. It was comfortable, not itchy, and easy to move in.

I felt like a movie star

The dress draped nicely and was well proportioned. Deep plunge but i was still able to wear a regular bra. Strategic use of pins made sure it didn't gap or gape. Loved it and got tons of complements.

Got so many compliments!

I'm 5'9" and definitely needed the long. The dress fit like a glove and was so comfortable to wear and move around all night. I ended up pinning the dress at the chest a little though because I'm not very busty. I felt great in this dress and got so many compliments though! Would absolutely recommend. The dress is even prettier in person.

CLASSY

I wore this for a wedding anniversary and was so shocked at the amount of compliments I received! I usually wear simple and black silhouettes like this and the sparkle added an extra "umph". I had to use double sided tape to fit and secure around the bust but the length was perfect.

33 weeks glam - "best dressed and a mama-to-be"

I did a ton of research to find the right "bump-friendly" rental. A bump comes in many different shapes and sizes, so seeing other reviews from women in the 32-36 week range helped me feel confident renting this dress. I absolutely loved wearing this and highly recommend to other 3rd trimester ladies needing a glam gown. I received a ton of compliments throughout the night and felt completely comfortable and beautiful. That being said, this dress did need some minor alterations to be wearable, and it wasn't a perfect fit. To accommodate my bump, I needed to wear the 10L (I also rented an 8L), but it was way too big in the chest. Pre-pregnancy I'm a 4-6L with a 30D chest. I ended up using a few safety pins in the front (easy to do without looking obvious) and one in the back. The zipper still bunched a little but wasn't noticeable because of the cut of the dress. The alterations made the dress comfortable and a bit more modest (either a plus or a minus depending on who you are).

The dress was beautiful. I got so many compliments. Great Experience!

I wore the dress for the formal nights on our family's Christmas Cruise. We decided to have formal portraits done and I feel the dress just made it even more special. I felt like a million plus bucks. The only problem was that I am 5'6 and I ordered the 14R, which fit everywhere except in length. I had to wear flats otherwise the dress was about 4 inches too short. I also had to pin the bust area as it was so deep of a V in front that I was showing way too much of the girls (mind you I am also a 38DDD). I would rent this dress again in a long and remember to pack the safety pins.

RTR was great throughout. Great selection, awesome customer reviews and pics, and delivery was fast

The dress is a show stopper. I rented this for a charity gala, and it turned heads. I did have to tape it by the bust and straps, as it was very low cut and a bit big on top. The zipper was HORRIBLE, but after many attempts, it went up. It's not a size issue, it's the fabric. It is hard to zip even when off. But my entire experience was a positive one, and I will continue to use this website. Thank you!! :)

Wish I had the 4 but the 2 worked

I ended up wearing taller heels than in this photo but I'm 5ft zero and with regular tall heels idk maybe 3-4 inches it didn't drag. Beautiful sequin, sexy but not overly inappropriate. I wouldn't wear this to a work formal party because of the cleavage but I did wear it to a posh wedding in LA.

Flattering & Glamorous

Loved this dress. It was very flattering. I ended up being able to wear a normal, black bra with it. The chest area isn’t very supportive and you’ll definitely need some kind of bra/tape/sticky boobs. It was perfect for the event I needed it for. The length was good too, I’m 5’5” and I wore heels with it and it hit just right.

Gorgeous gown

I absolutely LOVED this dress! It fit perfectly, and I could wear a regular bra with it (with a little tape to make sure of no mishaps). It was revealing enough to make me feel sexy, but it was comfortable enough to wear to a wedding with my in-laws. Would rent again.

Gorgeous floor length gown for black tie wedding that fit a short person with large chest!

Love love loved this gown. For a short person with a large chest well. I sized up because I was expecting. A little heavy but still was able t o dance. Would rent again. One small thing is it does give you a little arm irritation because of the sequins.

Glamourous yet extremely comfortable!

Fantastic dress that received a lot of compliments! A little loose up top on the straps (but nothing bad) and I had to safety pin the front as the cleavage was a bit too low for my preference, but otherwise this was perfect. I wore flat sandals and the gown just brushed the floor (I'm 5"5"). Would absolutely rent this again!

Gorgeous and classy

The pros: The dress is gorgeous and classy. I felt very pretty in it. The pros are that it is very comfortable for a formal gown. I rented this for a charity sneaker ball and received a ton of compliments. The cons: you will need help zipping this dress. It gets snagged very bad on the sequins. The top is also big, and the straps fell off somewhat. Other than that a very nice gown.

So glamorous!

I loved the shape of this dress because it hides all my problem areas, especially being 3 months post partum. I didn't wear any shaping wear, and only used a pin on the front to make sure the girls didn't make an appearance. ;) Highly recommend!! I felt like Hollywood!

Beautiful!

This dress is beautiful and I love dresses that let me go braless! It was too long (but my heels weren't very tall and that's a normal problem for my height) -- temporary fashion tape fixed it. I would have liked to try a size smaller because the shoulder straps and bust area was very loose when I would sit down. I had to use fashion tape to keep it in place. A size smaller might have fixed this issue but the arm hole area might become too constricting. Overall perfect for formal events!

Felt like a sequin siren!

STUNNING! Wore this for a black tie wedding. I am 5'5" and I wore the 12L with 4 inch heels and I still had to pick up the dress a little to walk..but it was so stunning it didn't matter! Got so many compliments! This dress really shows off your waist but is not tight at the bottom so you can sit and dance in it. I styled it with black open toe heels, black earrings and bracelet, and a black clutch. I also wore the black Spanx Suit Your Fancy Plunge Low-Back Mid-Thigh Bodysuit. Highly recommend!
