The elegant, lacy detail was perfect for this event!
Overall fit was good- I wore kitten heels but would have probably been better off with a higher heel since occasionally I got caught up in the train. Nothing I couldnt handle but good to know for future rentals. The dress is much prettier in person and photographs beautifully-perfect elegant choice for a wedding.

So many compliments!
I rented this for my niece for a seaside chic attire wedding. I added a little double stick tape to the bust and where the skirt wrapped around since the event was in a windy seaside location. The dress is an amazing color and easy to style with shoes etc. She received many compliments! She is 5'7" and normally a size 6.

This is such a festive dress!
The fit was pretty good. I had a little room in the top but the halter style was forgiving. It has a bit of stretch which made it perfect for dancing. Would definitely rent again!

A showstopper!
Fit was true to size. A big plus is the ability to wear a normal bra. I felt it best to pin the front but for those with a larger bust it may fit a bit better. The dress is rose-goldnot a true yellow gold so the shoe choice was challenging. I'd recommend a very neutral metallic. All in all a very comfortable and flattering choice for a variety of body shapes and coloring. This dress is most becoming in the evening when it reflects soft lighting.

Work appropriate but still a standout for the sexy and stylish details that the dress offers.
The fit ran true to size for me. I paired it with the RTR Kate Spade Milan clutch and Beacon Earrings (both shown) for an Asian flair. The dress is formfitting but slightly stiff so it keeps a nice line and prevents unwanted jiggle. It it much nicer in person than in the RTR photo. The subtle shine of the sheath under the lace adds to the overall sophisticated sexiness of this dress. I would rent it again in a heartbeat.

The compliments by everyone from eight to eighty made me feel as good as I looked!
This dress looks even more stunning than in the photo. It is a really rich sapphire and the sequins are top quality-gives a lovely liquid look. I am pretty hard to fit and the 10R was perfect-the dress has just a hint of stretch-so no back fat issues! As other reviewers have described, you do need to wear a 4 or 5 inch heel due to the length of the skirt. The short train took a little getting used to but was very manageable. I did use the handy double stick tape that RTR supplied to ensure that there would be no wardrobe malfunctions. This was my first rental and the experience could not have been better. My main choice and back up both arrived in perfect condition and on time. The only problem was that they both looked spectacular. I will definitely rent again!!!
