Elegant and comfortable.
Very comfortable. True to size. It also had a little give to it which helped with the comfort. I wore it with a black, sheer chiffon, and black, strappy shoes. The heels were 2.5" - 3". The material was thick enough and the cut made it so I didn't need to wear a bra. This turned out to be a very popular dress that night. There was another woman wearing the same one and there was almost a 3rd person as well. She told me it was her backup and she went with her original choice.

LOVED IT. Sexy gown. Definite show-stopper.
I loved this dress. It fit perfectly. It made me look curvy in all the right places when I normally a bit straight. I was worried too much skin would show with both the cutout and the slit but it was fine. The slit wasn't too much for me since I have fairly long legs and it doesn't just fall open. You have to really have your leg sticking out or legs crossed, etc. I've never worn a dress with a cutout so that made me a little self conscious. Just took some getting used to. Most of the night I carried a white stole which was perfect for the temp and it covered the cutout when I wanted to. Be aware that you will get lots of looks, compliments and comments so don't wear this dress if you don't want the attention. I wore it with basic nude strappy-sandals, a "gold" cuff , "gold" earrings and a "gold" clutch. I would love to rent this dress again if given the opportunity. My husband thought it was super hot as well. :)

Beautiful. Would have needed a padded bra.
This dress is gorgeous and I might try to rent it again. However, it was my backup and my first choice was perfect. I still tried this on. I usually wear a 2 or 0, sometimes a 4. I rented a 2 and a 4 because of the other reviews. I tried on the 2. It fit great except in the bust. To be fair, I'm only 32B and didn't have a bra on at the time. I think it would work with a slightly padded strapless bra. Again, this is gorgeous and I'd probably rent it again as a first choice depending on the event.

True to size. Sexy and classy.
I'm the worst because I forgot to take a pic again! I rented this for a holiday dinner with my husband at his new boss's house. At first we were told it was slightly dressed up "cocktail" attire. My husband was told the day of the event that it was switched to casual. DOH! Rented it for nothing. I tried it on anyway and it was perfect! The size 2 fit so well that I didn't even bother trying the 0. I think it would've been too tight anyway. I agree with the other reviews when it comes to not being able to lift your arms very much... (It was very difficult to zip up the dress on my own) and the lining does show a bit when you sit. Other than that, the arms weren't TOO tight. They just have no give. I'm skinny but I have somewhat broad shoulders and decently sized biceps. Just be prepared if your arms are a bit on the larger side. It will be tight.

Not the right choice for event.
I rented this for a seminar / dinner in Key West. I ended up not wearing it only because the group and outings were super casual and it actually got pretty cold. Honestly, this isn't really my style anyway but I wanted to try something out of my comfort zone of strictly maxi dresses and shorts for the beach. It was a cute dress. I liked that it was form fitting but still felt light and comfortable. I think it might be more flattering for women with bigger busts than mine. I felt like I was having to move the top part around a lot before I was comfortable with how it looked.

It was very cute and flowy.
I ended up not wearing it only because the group and outings were super casual and it actually got pretty cold. I did not have the right tops to layer and make it look nice without being either overdressed or freezing. Other than that, I loved it. The item itself was great. My timing for the rental was just way off. :(

I didn't wear the dress. Partially because it was worn out and also it was a poor choice on my part.
I decided to go with my back up. I mostly didn't wear the dress because I'm still such an amateur at picking a dress for the appropriate event... my roommate told me this would've been inappropriate for this particular wedding. (She was right.) The other reason was because the lace at the top of the bust was all bent over and looked a bit sloppy. (I had read this in a few other reviews so I should've known better.) It's the only time I ever had a problem with a dress from RTR. It was the first time I used them but I had always heard great things so I've continued to use them after this and love it. I'll bet they could've helped if I didn't have a backup to go with.

Favorite dress that I've rented from RTR.
Loved this dress! Might try to buy it. It felt so great. I loved the flow. It was for a wedding in May in Texas. Very hot day. It's not the kind of dress that will make people stop and turn heads but it made me feel super pretty. I think I wore a nu bra with this so I wouldn't have to worry about the straps showing in the back.

Fun dress. Wore for a daytime wedding. Nice and bright for a cloudy day.
I waited too long to review so I can't remember if I went with 0r or 2r. I'm pretty sure I went with 0r. It's flowy but sort of thick with the layers. That made it so I didn't have to wear a bra. I wore this for a daytime wedding and pizza dinner. (Reception was the next day.) I wouldn't recommend this if you know you want to dance a lot and it's a hot day. It's a bit heavy. I felt very pretty in this dress. The color made me happy.

This was my backup. Did not wear.
I think it is an awesome dress. It fit my okay. I think it would look better with a bigger bust than mine (32b) and if you're a bit curvier in general. I might have given it a go if I had a 0r to try on.

This was super comfortable. Elegant and sexy. Fun to dance in as well. So bummed I didn't get a pic.
I loved this dress. I'm pretty bummed because I don't have a picture of me in it. I only have a few headshots from that evening. I did get a lot of compliments. It was so fun to dance in! I felt elegant and sexy. I will add a pic if I come across one. It's been so long that I can't remember if I went with the 0r or 2r. Pretty sure it was the 2r. The 0r was just a tiny bit tight. The dress is true to size without much stretch to it. Definitely size up if you aren't sure.
