Stunner!!!

Never loved a dress so much or received so many compliments!! It runs a bit small so size up. Also wrinkles really easy, no way around it but the fit and cut is too good to pass up!!!

It fit me like a glove. I felt like a princess. Everyone told me I looked absolutely beautiful. I would love to have kept it. I will definitely rent it again 10 out of 10.

Perfect black tie wedding dress!

If you’re scared of it being too light for a wedding, fear not! It was very obviously pink. Also if you have larger breasts I would recommend sizing way up. I usually wear a 2-4 however I ordered a 4-6 after seeing some reviews on how girls with larger tops said you should size up and boy were they right! I ended up wearing the 6! The chest area was the only area that was tight. The rest of my body fit in the 4 just fine!

This is a beautiful dress that I wore to a black tie wedding 5 months pregnant. There is a ton of material so it accommodated a small belly. Also has pockets. Highly recommend!

Perfect dress for a black tie wedding - I was worried the fabric would be too informal, but it’s gorgeous, luxury, heavy fabric that is great for formal events.

Best RTR dress I’ve ever ordered 💯 So many compliments. If you have broad shoulders or large bust, size up as the fabric has zero stretch.

Bride said I looked so good she should be mad

Okay bride is a close friend and she was not mad at all; that's how she jokes!! I can't tell you how many times I heard "you look like a princess!" And I felt like one! The skirt is a lot of material so be prepared to be carrying it up steps and adjusting it as you sit, but it has great movement when walking and didn't stop me from dancing the entire night! The corset is, well, a corset. I have a bigger ribcage so that was slightly uncomfortable, but really only when sitting and it wasn't impacting my breathing at all, just stiffly tight. I am 5'6 and wore 3 inch heels and it was literally the perfect length. Pockets were huge for keeping my phone on me you couldn't even see I had it in my pocket because the skirt was so big. Highly recommend this dress!!!

White Lotus Finale Attire!

This dress is just everything! Didn’t have an event attend, so wore it in my backyard to watch the WL season three finale :). I was not able to fully zip the top up, but got it zipped enough to stay on. The cut of the top is very flattering and the length of the straps is just right. The skirt is voluminous and has pockets! I think it would be too big to go up a size, so this one might be better suited for smaller chested ladies.

2000s PRINCESS

Unreal. No notes. Fabulous. Most complemented look, ever. I’m 5’9” and wore a 2L with 3” heels and it still touched the floor. Straps are adjustable but corset is tight, I would say very true to size but if I between sizes or bust, size up for extra room. This was the most snatching dress I’ve ever worn, truly no notes. It was giving the Ralph Lauren dress Gwyneth Paltrow wore to the academy awards in 1999. more photos and reviews @whimzylindzy

Incredible. Insane!

I want to wear this dress for forever and ever. Need to buy when this goes on sale. Never felt so amazing in a dress. 5'7" and wore 4" heels and it didn't hit the floor. Definitely for taller gals. Also tight on the bust, so keep that in mind. I'm normally a small / size 2 dress and got a 0 and thought it was never going to fit. To my surprise it worked! Definitely snug, but could zip / wasn't busting out!

Best Dress Ever!

The color, the cut, the material! I got an ISANE amount of compliments on this dress. If it wasnt $700 i would have bought it but ill definitely rent it again! I went a size up due to my boobs being bigger which worked well. They only had the Long available, but could have definitely done a Regular and still had it floor length. I wore this to a July wedding which was HOT! and it was still perfect.

So comfy!

I don't own many dresses, let alone anything pink and was feeling adventurous so I rented this for a black tie wedding and was pleasantly surprised. The fabric is a nightmare to keep from wrinkling but the more I stood, the more the wrinkles layed a little more flat. Pockets were a huge come up the whole night. I wore Covet's Avery heels which were the perfect height and if you're trying to match your nail color, DND cotton candy could not have been more perfect. Hope that helps!

Perfect form fitting dress

I loved this dress! It’s def snug in the rib area but fits perfectly to show off your waist. Couldn’t even fit wearing a bra but didn’t even need it given the support. Perfect length and cut! Fantastic!!!

Beautiful Evening Gown!

The structure of this dress is stunning! I’m around 145–150 lbs and am usually a 6 or an 8 so I went with an 8R (and it was tight)!! I had to do some strategic adjusting to feel comfortable up top. If you’re fuller in the chest, I’d recommend sizing up up or choosing a style with a bit more give. Otherwise, it’s a showstopper, I got so many compliments!

This dress was everything. The material felt luxe and had the perfect amount of structure… plus it had pockets which was such a win! I wore it to a formal event and genuinely lost count of how many compliments I got. I felt so confident, elegant, and honestly like a real life princess. If you’re looking for a showstopper, this is the one!

Gorgeous Dress!

I've never gotten so many compliments on a dress and the wedding photographer stopped me 3x to take pictures of this dress! It is stunning! And snatches the waist! I'm tallish (5'10") so I went with the long and it was the perfect length with 2.5/3 inch heels. I found it true to size but there's definitely no stretch. Will definitely be renting this again!
