I LOVE this dress - the full skirt, pockets, and color were amazing. I'm pretty petite in height (5'1") and the dress hit me right around the knee; maybe a tad below. With a higher shoe, it looked fine. Since I'm short waisted, the dress was a little long on top, but it looked fine, and didn't bunch too much. I was able to wear a normal bra, even with the lower back of the dress. It was the perfect weight for an October wedding at the Cape, with some portions of the wedding happening outdoors. Lots of compliments all night!

I LOVED this dress - if I could have kept it, I would have. Based on reviews, I ordered the 4 (I usually am a 4 in fit and flare dresses, but usually order up for designer dresses). I might have even been able to squeeze into the 2. In my opinion, this dress looks nicest when the bust of the dress is snug (based on photos). I'm a 32DD or E, and have a 29.5 inch waist, and it fit perfectly, with a little give. I suspect that if I was less busty, the waist would have hit more at my natural waist rather than like an empire. The length was perfect on me, but I'm definitely on the very short side. When it arrived, the back half of the bows were pressed down over the front half so they wouldn't lie flat, but all I had to do was secure the back portion of the bows on the notches of the hanger overnight, and it was fine. Definitely don't bend straight over (not that you would in a dress anyways!) because it's very poufy! I paired it with a metal front belt from ASOS and Kate Spade feather shoes I've had for YEARS and have never had the guts to wear until now. It was a hit!

This dress was a back up, last minute order due to an issue with my original back up size in another dress being damaged & unwearable. Per usual, RTR was excellent with communication and let me know ASAP what the issue was and what my options were - shout out to Reylisa for all the help! This dress was very comfortable with a bit of stretch (perfect for dancing), and lots of people complimented it throughout the evening. The wedding was at a winery, and at first I was afraid the print would be too much for a rustic chic outdoor wedding, but it worked! I even had to do a mini fashion show for the ladies working the desk at our hotel because they were so curious about the package that was shipped there for me. The dress was a little tight in the bust, but that's pretty usual for me (32DD-E). Bonus - surprise pockets!

While I usually wear a 4 in chain brand dresses, I typically size up to a 6 in RTR dresses. This photos of this dress are true to reality. There was an issue with the backup size 6 (unable to be worn due to damage), so RTR sent me the 4 I ordered, and another dress in a 6. I ended up wearing the other dress, because while the 4 fit my waist (29.5"), it did not in the least zip over my chest. I'm a 32DD-E, so that was understandable. I loved the dress I wore, but was so disappointed, because this dress was so adorable on!

I rented this dress for my Bachelorette in New Orleans. I ordered the 4 based on other reviews, and it fit really really well. The top is a thick cotton jersey material with some stretch - if I was able to order two sizes for this dress, I would have liked to see how the 2 fit. I'm petite, so the top was actually a bit long on me. I wore my less supportive strapless with this, since it was lower cut due to the beautiful neckline. I agree with other users, the skirt on the interior is VERY short. It's the same jersey material with a large hem of tulle, and it barely (I mean my cheeks were sometimes getting some drafts) covered my behind. I'm very short with a booty. HOWEVER, there is SO MUCH tulle it was not an issue to have bare legs in this. I did pull down on the interior skirt a lot, mainly because it felt like I was exposed (since this was the only part that was touching my body). My girls were on butt patrol though, and assured me it was never visible. We were a HIT at the drag and burlesque bar we ended up with, and I was very comfy all night. Getting and returning the dress was super easy! I had it shipped to our hotel and it was waiting for me when I arrived. When we checked out, the concierge was able to call UPS for me, so I didn't even have to worry about finding a drop box. I would definitely use RTR again!

I rented this dress and another for my Bachelorette in New Orleans. I had them both shipped to my hotel, and they were waiting for me when I arrived - perfect. I ordered a Medium in this dress, but based on reviews, ordered the Small as my backup size. The Small fit perfectly. I have an hourglass figure, so the dress hit about 2 inches above my knee (even though I'm 5'1"). I didn't find it was itchy, but I didn't end up wearing this dress out - maybe it would have been itchy over time? I ended up going with the other dress because this was body skimming & we were going out to dinner and drinks. I would have felt more comfortable wearing Spanx under it, but didn't have a pair. If I DID, believe me, I would have worn this one! Bonus: The concierge at my hotel called UPS for pick-up for me, so I didn't even have to find a dropbox. SO EASY.
