You did it again RTR!

This dress is amazing! I wish I could have kept it. It was very comfortable, made me feel super sexy and fit like a glove. After having a bambino (5 months post body), I didn't know how sizing would work for me. So I chose a design with a backup option. It did not disappoint.

Amazing classic dress!

This dress is fabulous and fit me like a glove! It was perfect for a winter fancy date night dinner. The slit is dramatic but still classy thanks to the simplicity of the rest of the dress. Got so many compliments and seriously considered buying. Will definitely rent again!

Sexy but sophisticated

Got so many compliments! Fit like a glove. I loved the slit. It was definitely high up, so if you are tall it will probably be a little too high.

perfect winter formal black dress

I was so happy with how this dress fit! It was warm and sexy. The sleeves were long so I folded them under but was very happy overall. Wore to a gala and was perfect w the purse I also rented.

Classic yet sexy black gown

I would love to keep this dress - it would make a good black dress staple. Extremely comfortable. It has a bit of stretch and is surprisingly forgiving. Be careful with nylons and shapewear as the slit in the front is quite high. I paired it with some tights with control top and you could just barely see the control top when sitting down. I would rent again. Great with statement jewelry.

The Dress Was Just Right

I ordered this dress not too sure what to expect. The dress fit me perfectly. I wore the XL and it fit me perfectly. The attire was formal and the dress was perfect for the occasion. I loved the slit because it showed a little skin but was not too revealing. I didn't like sitting in the dress, but standing it was fine. The split is technically almost on the side of the dress versus the front.

Beautiful dress. I loved it, got so many compliments, but it was super high in the slit. This is a warm material dress and was perfect for an outdoor November wedding.

Elegantly Seductive

I was very nervous to wear this dress because the slit is VERY high. I sent photos to multiple people, who encouraged me to wear it to an exhibition opening! I did wear it, with tights, and it went very well. I was surprised how confident I felt in it.

Stunning dress, not for me

As you could see from the picture, not super flattering on my pear shape. But the dress is STUNNING and thick. As someone who is shorter, the arms on the large were so baggy. Maybe the M would have worked but, would have been even tighter on my mid section.

Felt like a million bucks!

Cannot recommend this dress enough!! Wore to a late November wedding in NJ and it was the perfect dress. Super flattering, especially in the midsection. The slit is quite high, but I only noticed while sitting with my leg crossed over; wasn't an issue on the dance floor.

I was happy

I got the size large and the size medium. I ended up wearing the size medium because the large was a little loose in the stomach to top area and I wanted a more tight fitting dress. The hips were a little tight in the medium but with the high leg slit there was no issues with moving around and there was stretch.

Very Flattering, Perfect for Winter Wedding

The slit is pretty high. I'm between a medium and a large, and I went with the large for additional comfort. I wore sheer black tights with the dress, and it was hard to keep the darker part of the top of the pantyhose hidden. Would rent again!

Classic with a twist

Wore this with some patterned Wolford tights and loved it. It is simple, fits well, and has a high slit (almost to the hip). Comfortable and warm but not heavy. Will rent again :)

Too loose in the shoulders and on top and tight on the hips — I know it’s supposed to hang a particular way but you probably need an athlete’s shoulders to pull it off

Awful

This was an awful rental. Unfortunately, I should’ve paid more attention to the previous reviews. The small fit my hips nicely, but was much too large on the top. It even bubbled on my lower back. I ended up not even wearing it. The dress was very unflattering. Extremely disappointed.
