Sultry and Sophisticated Showstopper
I loved this dress and received many compliments on it. It highlights a girls best assets. My one issue, like other reviewers is that the straps are much too long and so I felt myself adjusting myself and checking my cleavage throughout the night to make sure I wasn't having a wardrobe malfunction. I ended up wearing a black regular bra versus a strapless. Looking back I also wish I would have gone with a size 14. Overall it's a gorgeous dress, just wish the straps were not quite so long.

Fabulous Sparkle and Fit!
I absolutely loved this dress! I wore it for my BFF's 30th Birthday party. I ordered both the 12 and 14. I anticipated that I'd probably wear the 14, but ended up wearing the 12. It just hugged all of my curves in the right places. Very comfortable and the length was perfect. I paired it with opaque black tights. The cut outs in the back were awesome and I just wore a regular old bra with it. I loved that it wasn't high maintenance. I will definitely be renting this again! I received a ton of compliments!

Oscar Worthy!
I wore this dress to a black tie Junior League Fashion Show gala. It was stunning in person and in photographs and I received a ton of compliments. I felt like I should be walking the red carpet in this gown. The only minor issue I had was with the bottom of the zipper bunching slightly at the backside due to my bootyliciousness going on back there. I gave it a little tug every now and then and i was fine. I am 5'7 and love to wear super high heels and this dress was still a bit long even with my highest pair. It also has a slight train at the back which i didn't realize at first, but ended up loving! I can't say enough good things about this dress. It's a slam dunk! P.S. I had also ordered the 14L but felt that it didn't hug my curves enough at the waist.

Very comfortable and light weight!
I rented this dress for a casual rehersal dinner. It was cute, comfortable and light weight. I wasn't over the moon about it, but didn't hate it. I probably wouldn't rent it again. Size was right on.

Loved it!
I rented this dress as my backup for a bachelorette party in Vegas. While I didn't end up wearing it, I loved it and would definitely rent this again. It fit my curvy figure really nicely and I loved the pockets! I was a little nervous ordering the 12 being that it's Zach Posen.... but it fit well. I would have worn a pair of spanx underneath just to give a smooth look in the corset top. A strapless Bra is key, too! This bright pink color made me feel super girly. Sorry I don't have a pic to share :(

Sparkle, sparkle and more sparkle!
I lost my RTR virginity with this dress for my best friend's bachelorette party in Las Vegas and LOVED it! I usually wear a size 12 in dresses but had never worn BM before, so I figured I'd play it safe and order the 14, too. I'm glad that I did. The bust area on the 12 seemed really stretched out and didn't hang properly on me. I also had an issue with the bottom of the zipper on the 12. Even though I steamed it, it stuck out of the dress and made me look like I had a tail or something. Kind of weird! The 14 was fantastic. The bust draped nicely and the zipper had no issues! I would definitely reccomend this dress for most body types. I'm extremely curvy and have some serious junk in the trunk! I received compliments all night long on this sparkler! FYI - The color is definitely Rose gold and not gold. I wore a nude patent shoe and it looked great! Oh and definitely use some fashion tape on the bust area. Thanks RTR for including some with my order!
