Unique dress that reads well in low light and crowds
Dress was snug; I ordered a Small and Medium. I fit into the Small but went with the Medium for a less skin-tight look for my work party. Was a good length; I wore flats to be more comfortable. Was able to wear a regular bra with this dress so that was nice. A very easy wear and stands out in a crowd, I got a lot of compliments on it.

Fun, whimsical dress
I ordered a 4R with 2R as a backup; the 2R was better for length and bust fit, but I wore the 4R because my 27" waist was a bit too tight of a fit in the 2R. The waist/bodice doesn't have any stretch. I should have worn 1" or 2" heels with the 4R but I had only brought flats so had to hold the dress up a bit. Nice print and fabric, good for a wedding that is on the casual side. Overall good rental, but not stellar.

Works perfectly for an outdoor wedding!
Could have worn either the 2R or the 4R, but chose the 4R for its added length. I wore 4" wedge heels with this dress, so I needed the extra inches on the bottom. This is my second time renting this dress. It is so comfortable for dancing and sitting and at this length (I'm 5'6") it didn't require me to hold it up too much while walking around on grass and cobblestone. No bra required; the way the bodice is structured is amazing. It stayed up all night with no adjusting or worrying about exposure but wasn't suffocating at all. I also appreciated that the small V at the neckline isn't too revealing.

Beautiful spring colors
The colors on this dress are perfect, strong and bright without being overwhelming. I usually wear a 4 but in this dress I wore a 2 because the bust and waist fit much better. The 2 was a bit tight around the hips, but the 4 was just too large up top. Probably not the best dress for pear shapes; the cut seems more suited to smaller hips. Overall the dress was very well made, the fabric was gorgeous and it was very comfortable!

Great for a work holiday party
This dress is classy enough to be around coworkers but also steps it up with the open back. I ordered the 2 and the 4; the 2 could have worked but I planned to eat a full dinner so went with the 4 for some extra room. Definitely form fitting but not unforgiving. Was a hit!!

Effortless, comfortable wear that looked great.
This dress was no hassle as far as choosing undergarments, and the lace fabric is very forgiving. The dress is stretchy but not clingy and doesn't ride up. Skirt length is perfect, I wore 3" heels and it was not too scandalous. Would highly recommend.

Perfect pairing!
This is the necklace that the RTR model for the dress is wearing; it's a great pairing. I also wore a gold statement ring, gold earrings, and gold heels since the dress didn't have any embellishment. This necklace has a pretty easy finish and color to match with other accessories. I should note that the length of the necklace is not really adjustable at all, but instead the U-shaped piece closes enough in the back that it hangs on your neck that way and the chain clasp is more just for closure. It frames the face nicely without distracting attention from it. Would definitely recommend!

DVF dress adds to a glamorous night...
This dress worked out beautifully, although I will mention that the cut is a little nontraditional - rather than vertical seams down the sides or back of the dress, there are seams running diagonally across it. I think this may have contributed to the pucker at my right armpit that you can see in the photo I posted; however, I didn't find it to be that noticeable. The slit creates nice movement and is not too high when standing, but when sitting for dinner, I was glad that I had a napkin to cover that side of my leg because it came up a little too high! I am 5'6" and wore 4" heels and the 4R was the absolute perfect length. I ordered the 2L as a backup just in case, and it was too small, so I'd say this dress runs true to size. It was a great dress for a balmy Savannah wedding!

Cute spring dress!
Fit was a bit large, normally I am a size 4, but I got the 4 and the 2, and the 2 fit better. The 4 would have been wearable though, if you like a looser fit. My photo is b&w but the color was true to the RTR photo, a great periwinkle for spring, and the lace pattern adds some nice depth. I wore a bra with this dress, but the top has nice structure so you wouldn't have to if you didn't want to. Rented this for a formal fundraising event, and would definitely recommend for something similar! It's a nice, comfortable, easy wear.
