Dreamy

I wore this dress for family photos and loved it! It was perfect for the vibe I was going for. Very flowy and elegant without being over the top. I will note that it is snug it the top and a little revealing but I made it work.

Light as Air

The perfect summer dress when you want a little coverage — the cut is low but manageable, and the length was perfect for me (I could wear flats with it). Like wearing a very fancy nightgown!

Outdoor wedding. Super comfortable and classic while being flowy and casual enough for the event…yes still elegantly beautiful.

Loved this one for an April wedding in Boise, where it was a little chilly. The sleeves were a great addition and it fit very well

LOVE

Absolutely loved this dress for a black tie wedding we went to in San Antonio. It fit like a glove. It is pretty low cut but I was still able to wear a regular bra with minimal issues. I received tons of compliments about the dress both at the wedding and after when I posted photos. Really really considered purchasing but don’t have enough formal events to attend on an annual basis to justify the cost.

Very comfortable and airy, fun to dance in

Waist hit too high on my frame (I’m 5’10”), added a black fabric wrap belt to camouflage and it worked out fine. Neckline is a bit low but not too bad- could easily fix with tape if worried

Gorgeous, but hard to get into without help!

The chest/rib area is very tight!!! Once I got it on, though, I felt so pretty!! It was a bit long for me, even with heels, but I didn’t care. Hides every problem area and accentuates your better features. Loved!!

Beautiful for a date night

The colors were very vibrant and the fit is flattering. My only issue was the sleeve/shoulder area (hence 4 instead of 5 stars) - it’s a little tight and was slightly difficult to move your arms around. Putting on or taking off a jacket took some wiggling but still very doable. It’s very blue, so if that’s not your color I wouldn’t recommend this dress. Overall happy I rented it but didn’t consider buying.

Flowy and fun

This is a beautiful dress and it worked well for a fall formal wedding. But, the chest is just so low cut. I had to pin it and it wasn't easy. The dress is also a bit long and dragged if I took my shoes off or had flats on.

Beautiful dress but bad fit for me

Really pretty dress but too big up top for me and I suspect sizing down would make it too tight in the waist. I did not wear it.

love love love

i ended up wearing this to a wedding and it's so beautiful! so flowy and does not wrinkle easily. it is very long as a fyi. i'm 5'7" and was wearing not the highest of heels so it definitely didn't touch the floor and showed my heels but i am clumsy and was tripping everywhere. can't wait to rent again or even end up buying! loved!!

Nice fit, very pretty.

Wore to a formal (black tie) wedding. Felt elegant and comfortable. Perfect length with 2 inch heels. Wore a strapless bra so straps wouldn’t be an issue since the neckline was wide and straps may have shown.

Loved it!

I didn’t originally pick this, but the RTR team sent it when the initial dress I selected didn’t work out. This ended up being perfect for my friends wedding! Definitely low cut, but overall super flattering and beautiful!

The dress is very elegant and very good quality.

The dress flow through your body very smoothly. The dress is long and need to wear a pair of higher heel shoes.

Super dreamy!

So many compliments on this to a work luncheon. Rented a size 6. I'm a bit short in the torso, so I pinned it up at the shoulders giving it a bit more full look. It was a bit long, but with more of a heel, it would have been just right. The back was gorgeous. Definitely a winner!

Pretty and fit well

Unfortunately, I thought this dress would be casual enough for a work dinner, but it was too fancy when I put it on. I could have worn it for a wedding or fancier party, but I had nowhere to wear it. Otherwise it looked great when I tried it on and the length was perfect for me at 5'-9 ½".

Snug in the waist

I loved this dress and got so many compliments, I was just slightly snug in the upper waist chest area so I ended up not wearing a bra and it worked great. The zipper was stiff and I needed help zipping it. I would definitely wear this dress again for another occasion

Perfect for a chaperoning, a college student event

Beautiful and fluffy. I wore tank top underneath it because I was not needing it to be low-cut. It had a small rip in the front, but my hair covered that.

Loved the feel of the dress, should have ordered normal size

Beautiful dress but I took too much stock in the size down comments from other wearers. If you have a larger bust, go with your regular size. I think a 10/12 would have fit great - definitely might come back to this dress (in the correct size) in the future.

Too long for a petite person

As pretty as it was, it did not fit well on me (bust area was too tight) and the length of the gown was too long for my body type. I returned it without wearing it to an event. It was really beautiful, however, and because it's a great quality, I think it would otherwise look amazing.

tight waist, oddly large chest

I could have made this dress work but I’m not into feeling super uncomfortable just to look good at formal affairs any more. You also need either a push up bra or perfectly shaped big boobs to fill out the bodice.

Cute dress, but a little too big

I have a small frame, so flowy can sometimes be a bit overwhelming, but designers like MISA have mastered the good elastic waistband, so it clings to your waist and still shows your figure. I really liked this dress, but it needs a tighter elastic band so a small frame doesn't get lost in the dress.

A no go

Not a good choice for me. I am 5’9 and the dress was floor length, lots of material on the skirt. A friend said it is a dress to wear to hide your figure. I am thin and it looked bulky and overwhelming on me. I didn’t even wind up wearing it.
