this dress was AWESOME. I was nervous to try at first but I am so happy I did. I cannot say enough about it. From the mintue I put it on I felt beautiful and I got compliments all night. I felt like the prettiest girl at the ball. It covered all my "flaws" and accented what my assets. It was super comfortable and I never felt like I had to adjust anything. As for fit, I had to go a size up from my normal size, but it was mostly for comfort and more room to dance. It was poofier than on the model (which I loved). If you are the fence RENT THIS DRESS, you wont regret it. 

This was a really fun dress for my rehearsal dinner and "welcome" drinks. Originally, I was a little bit nervous about wearing it since I was worried the tulle skirt would be too poofy or costumey. I first tried on the 4 but the tulle was in bad shape - it was torn off in places and hanging weird. The 2 fit better and was in perfect shape, and as the night went on I liked it more and more. The colors are beautiful, the lace overlay is gorgeous, and the tulle adds a unique and whimsical twist to the whole thing. I got tons of compliments and everyone kept saying I looked like a fairy princess. Overall, another great RTR experience. 

The top part fits snugly but is very flattering, I love the lace! The bottom definitely poofs out a lot, I don't usually wear this style but I loved wearing it for the night! If you're looking for a sexy dress though, this isn't the one for you, but it is definitely very pretty and adorable! 

I wore this dress to a Masquerade benefit for kids with cancer. The dress was amazing and I received so many compliments on it! It does run a bit small so I would suggest ordering up a size. 

This dress made me feel like a golden princess. Several of my friends equated it to the Disney princess Belle, haha. The unique tulle features that come out from the waist give it a fun, playful feel. I typically wear a size 6 in dresses and the 8 in this particular style was tight on sitting or bending so I would definitely recommend ordering a back-up size larger than your normal everyday size. Otherwise, I felt beautiful and thought it was a fun dress that you wouldn't see everywhere!! 

This dress was beautiful for my wedding shower, and was my first RTR experience. Fit was true to size and nicely accentuated in the waist. The extra white tulle around the waist made it seem "ethereal" and had a whimsical feel. Loved the gold. Highly recommend! 

I wore this dress to my Rehearsal Dinner and loved every minute of it!! I wore the bigger size as the material is not forgiving and I have a large bust. I just didn't look right in my regular size. I got compliment after compliment....I want to buy this dress!! Rent it!!

I was concerned that this dress wouldn't fit, it was only available in a size 2 and I typically wear a size 0. After reading the reviews, which said it ran small, I decided to give it a try and am so glad I did. It fit like a glove! There were very minimal signs of wear, which considering this dress is mainly lace and tulle was shocking how good of condition the dress was in!

ABSOLUTELY LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS DRESS! The fit was perfection! It has some stretch so it's hugs nicely! Highly recommend ! 

I selected this as my reception dress for our August wedding and it was perfect. Very flattering, easy to move in and I got so many compliments. 

I am 5'1 and about  118. I ordered the 2 and 4 and ended up going with the 4 because I have some booty :) I wore this after my wedding for our very small reception dinner. It was perfect and I still felt wedding-y! I have yet to be let down by RTR!

I was worried the tool would make the dress to poofy, but it was fitted at the top and waste. The tool just gave it a little bit of volume towards the bottom and back. 

This dress was perfect for my small wedding party. I rented a size 4 and a 6  and I ended up wearing the 6 because the 4 came with the tulle all teared up. But all in all great quality and awesome fabric

Fit perfectly! Great for someone who is petite. Wore to an awards show and was complimented the entire evening! Doesn't look as great on the hanger but once I put on it was beautiful!

I was a bit worried about the color since I get washed out in muted/blush tones, but this is a gorgeous, warm gold. The airy tulle made me feel like a princess! Truly a special dress. 

Beautiful mini bridal gown for #weddingshower or #rehearsaldinner

I ordered this dress in an 8 and 10, and ended up going with the 10 since the 8 was a bit snug. Definitely need a strapless bra. I wore this to an out-of-town wedding and had the dress mailed directly to the hotel and forgot to bring a strapless bra so ended up going braless. Paired it with the Whiting and Davis Gilded Lattice Clutch, Slate and WiIlow Solar Flare earrings, and the Ella Carter Ashley Necklace. I walked around all night basking in compliments. I highly recommend. 

Beautiful dress! Does run slightly small. Beware: Not all dresses are created the same. I was able to fit into the 6, but the 8 was a slightly better fit. I chose not to wear the 8 because there was a lot more tule on it! It didnt complement my body type at all. If i wouldn't have been able to fit into the 6, i would have chosen a different outfit altogether.

I loved this dress!!!! It was so classy for the Legacy Reception I attended at my college, and I got a lot of compliments from it! I would definitely order a size up though (especially if your bust is larger), I am so glad I did! The ribbon in the waist also has NO give! Just a forewarning. Overall, an INCREDIBLE dress to wear but just beware of it running small!

Pretty dress! Up close you can tell it has been worn.. it has pills on the fabric, but not noticeable to anyone around you. I'd say it runs small, as I'm usually 2-4. I wore the 4 and the gold band around the waist has no give, it was pretty snug, but still fit. The top was a bit big on me as I'm not very busty, but it worked fine with a strapless padded bra. I may have worn the 6 if the tulle wasn't completely sad compared to the 4. It was short, and not as fluffy as the 4. The size 4's tulle had long pieces that made it super fun and flirty, but the dress remained uniquely elegant for the party. Paired with a simple strappy gold heel since the dress had a lot going on... no need for a flashy shoe. Obviously I took my heels off by the end of the night and put on fluffy socks. :-)
