Great fit, flattering!

I am 5'8", athletic build, 160lbs. I normally wear a size 8 or 10 in denim and a small top. The medium fit fantastic. The length of the long was still just at the top of my ankles, it's probably just an inch longer than the regular. Your shoes will definitely be visible and I wish I would have had cuter ones for the event. I got tons of compliments on the dress and it was very comfortable to wear for a cool new england wedding. I paired it with a black cashmere scarf when I cooled off. Highly recommend!

Great black tie wedding

The dress was comfortable and fit perfect! I’m 5’4 so it’s hard to find a dress that doesn’t require wearing 4’ heels.

Loved it!

I loved this dress! Wore to a black tie wedding. I was nervous it was going to be too short but I thought the length was perfect. Only thing to note is that it is a pretty thick material so it was VERY hot during the outdoor summer wedding ceremony. But very comfortable other than that!

Loved it!

This wasn't my first choice when looking and was a back up to my back up. But I loved this dress! It's actually quite stretchy so it was really comfortable. Was dressy for a black tie wedding and I felt sexy in it. Win win!

Black tie perfection!

I read a bunch of reviews that the bust ran small so I sized up but idk I was swimming in the large and needed a bunch of fashion tape. BUT I still loved it once it got taped up!

Great fit! Shorter than expected

This gown is gorgeous! It’s very comfortable to be in all night and the slit in the back makes for a perfect fit for a curve hugging fit. I’m 5’6 and found the length of the dress to be a little awkward for my expectations. If you want the dress to be full length order the Long! I’m wearing a MR

Wore this to a black tie event and it was perfect! Received so many compliments. Elegant & fun!

The top part has a good amount of structure so I felt very supported and the bottom sequin part has some stretch which is good. I have a longer torso and thought this fit me perfectly to snatch my waist. After a full night at the event and 2 hours of dancing I found myself pulling up the top but that's probably more of a user issue than a dress issue. Would rent again!!

Classic Hollywood Glam - Runs a Little Small

I have an awards event in Hollywood and this looked like a great option. I found this to run slightly small, mostly in the top. I rented the regular length (petite wasn’t available, but I like the regular length), but the fit wasn’t ideal for me. Although the bottom part is very stretchy and comfortable, the contrast of the too tight top created an unflattering bulge at the waist line. I might try the medium as I think it could look much better if the top wasn’t so tight. I included different poses to illustrate how standing at just the right angle can make something look a lot better 🤣 This is a great option for a classic gown, but if you’re a little more curvy you might want to size up or plan on wearing shape wear.

Soo many compliments

Loved this dress. Could have used a sparkly belt, but ran out of time. If I had to do it again, I may have worn the LR, for more comfort.

Incredible and Comfy

There is boning in the top which cinches your waist into nonexistence while holding the top up so you won't need to pull at it once. The bottom is entirely stretchy material and double lined so you don't feel the sequin. Easy zipper and clasp, no snags, literally a 10/10. Slit in the back lets you walk and dance without restriction. I wore to my office holiday party and received lots of compliments. If I can find a reason to rent again I will, great dress!

Fits true to size

I loved how I looked and felt in this dress. The top has a lining that helps hold it in place even on a bustier chest. It was flattering at my waist. I’m on the shorter side and on heels it came down right at my feet. I got a lot of compliments and would definitely wear it again

Stunning!

If you don’t want a lot of attention, don’t rent this dress. I goto many formal events and I have never received as many compliments as I did on this dress. The fit was perfect and comfortable to wear. Top stays up without feeling like you need to keep pulling the top up. Don’t hesitate to rent. I ran into a lady in the restroom that went on and on about my dress asking where I got it and when I told her I rented it she did she rented her dress from RTR too and she said she didn’t see the dress I had on or she said she would totally rent it.

Absolutely loved this dress! I ended up wearing the L for the extra bust area though the M fit wonderful everywhere else. I would say if you’re a bustier girl size up! I got so many compliments and it was so comfortable I wore it for 10 plus hours with no issues!
