I loved this dress! Wore it to a fundraiser and danced comfortably. Unfortunately RTR accidentally sent me size 0 not 0S, so the bottom was too long. However, I made it work. Agree with other reviewers about the soft inside lining and stretchy fabric. The drop back added elegant flare. Highly recommend.

I wore this dress to a wedding and then to the after party singing karaoke til 4 in the morning. So many compliments, perfect length (I got the petite size), you don't even realize you're covered in sequins. I didn't need any fashion tape, just a sticky bra, it fit perfectly.

You’ll need a low back bra or a good friend that will keep tucking your bra in!  I felt beautiful and fancy in this dress for a black tie wedding! Loved it! 

Do not wear this dress if you don’t want to be the center of attention with all eyes on you all night and a thousand comments about your gown.

I loved wearing this dress and was very comfortable all night. I'm 5'3 and the 10 petite was great. I could have probably sized down and it would have been even better. I wore pasties and a snugger fit might have helped keep the ladies more secure. Still loved this one! Way more fun than another black gown!!

Comfortable, hangs on the body beautifully. I felt stunning.

Beautiful dress that hugs all the curves.  It has a drop back making just a little more sexy.

This whole process from renting, to the extra size, to this comfortable dress was amazing. The dress fit true to size. I tend to run very hot, so I was concerned about the lining underneath the sequins. With spanx, I was a little toasty at times, but the lining of the dress itself was not heavy at all.

I wore something else for the gala I was attending, but I did love this dress and would rent it again if I needed it for another event. Fit like a glove!

Loved this dress, very flattering and comfortable. Would recommend for any Holiday events!

This dress is the most beautiful thing I've ever worn. I received more compliments on it in one night than for all other clothes in the past 2 years combined. It was comfortable to wear--a little stretchy, not itchy at all. I absolutely will rent this again for my next fancy event!

Fit perfectly. No complaints at all for this gown. I am only 5’2” and with normal sized heels on it but exactly where it needed to. 

I rented this dress for my holiday card photos with my boyfriend and loved the final shot we took! Pros of this dress are that it looks every bit as elegant and high quality as the pictures online! The fit is true to size, though I would say it's tighter in the mid section and a little looser on top, while still overall fitting just fine. I'm a little curvier in the hips so it definitely clung in certain places, but it was comfortable. Not sure this would be a dress I'd want to wear for an evening of eating but it was perfect for what I needed it for!

This dress was very comfortable and fit true to size with the exception of the front being a little shorter than I expected. Only advice would be to get heels that are a little shorter than usual. The color is beautiful and the dress was very flattering on. I received a lot of compliments on this dress, so I'd say it was a hit! 

The dress runs small (there's a little stretch), I normally wear a 6 and ended up wearing the 4 back up size. It is also a little shorter in the front than the back, so if you're 5'5 or taller I would recommend getting the long if you prefer to have your shoes covered. I didn't step on my shoes or anything. Overall very comfortable and flattering dress! The back was gorgeous and I received compliments all night :-)

I am 5'9" with long legs and was able to wear the 10L with heels. Beautiful, very formal gown, with amazing back but still modest. Definitely an attention grabber, I highly recommend it!

Fit alittle big on me for a size 4, was very comfortable easy to move in. Was able to wear spanx and stick on bra. Tons of complements!!   Husband loved it. :) 

Nice and light dress easy to wear for 6+ hours.  You can't wear a bra so I used a sticky bra. I'm 130 / 5'4".

I love this dress! I'm glad I went for the long size because I'm not super tall but the dress was almost too short with heels. There's a little bit of stretch so it's pretty comfortable. It was so elegant and so glamorous for a work black tie event. I wish I could keep it forever!

Wore this to a mardi gras masquerade ball ans was so happy i chose the green color. It was very comfortable ans glamerous. I am 5'6" and wore 2 inch heels ans it was the perfect length. Loved it. 

I'm currently 6 months pregnant so I was looking for something that would be comfortable for a long night as well as flattering to my bump. I typically wear a size 14 so I went one size up and the 16 fit perfectly. The dress is super comfortable and easy to move around in. It was the perfect dress for a Mardi Gras ball. Highly recommend this one!

Fits true to size to a little small. Its was a perfect length for my height but would say it runs a little short for anyone taller. I got tons of compliments and it was perfect for our Mardi Gras themed event!

I wore it for a sorority luncheon. 

The dress is true to size.

It's form fitting.

No complaints.

I rented this dress in gold back in the spring and wore a 10R so when I found this is in green for a winter event, I ordered a 10 and 12 and felt the 12 was a perfect fit. I'm 5'3 so the regular doesn't allow much of a heel but I'm ok with that since heels aren't my preference but there's not much room for anything more than a flat or one inch or so heel. 

Very comfortable and forgiving stretchy fabric. Ordered the LONG or it would have been too short (I'm 5f 9in) 

This dress stole the show!!!  Is was soooo comfortable and elegant. I danced the night away and did it in style. I would recommend a lower back but it is very forgiving with the fit. Such a grate rental!!!!  Highly recommend

Fabulous dress! Fit like a glove and was the most comfortable dress I’ve ever worn! Tons of compliments. Classy and just conservative enough for a faith-based event.

Love this look. A little on the scratchy side but worth it.


I LOVED this dress until I put it on. Sadly, I ordered 6R because 4L and 6L weren’t available. I’m 5’7” so the “long” was the obvious choice, but I was surprised how short this was on me. I even ordered a similar dress from the same designer in 4L and it was short too. Also, the train just hung from my body and didn’t even touch the floor. So it was awk! This is a beautiful dress and everything was perfect, but the reviews about the length are true. If you are taller than 5’5”, this dress will most likely be short on you. 

I was in Europe on work and definitely forgot to order a dress for my husbands' black tie award ceremony with only a few days to spare. Dress showed up on time, just before I got home, and I just crossed my fingers that the size 4 would fit, since they only had one size left for that particular dress, and it fit like a glove. I received so many compliments from strangers at the award show and felt amazing wearing it. It is comfortable to walk in and has the right amount of give/stretch. 

I could have used a king since it seemed a little short once I put heels on. This dress was so comfortable and flattering. I wore a strapless bra which was low enough to not show on the back 

I ordered my normal size and the dress fit like a glove! It’s got some stretch so it was unbelievably comfortable. The open back was the most complimented part of the dress. 

 Hit right below my ankles so a little longer in the back so I was able to wear heels. This is the MOST comfortable formal dress I have ever worn. Easy to move in and wear! Highly recommend, received a ton of compliments!

I was hesitant when I put it on at first. The cowl back seemed to make it look bulky from the front when I moved my arms. I was pleasantly surprised with how many people came up to me at the wedding and also how much attention the dress got from my Instagram post! Very flattering in photos! I would definitely rent again

I received so many compliments throughout the night. The dress was form fitting, yet comfortable and sleek. The back of the dress is open so you either need a low fitting strapless or stick ons. Would definitely recommend this dress again and wear it too!

This dress has it all - gorgeous, perfect length, stretchy fabric, and (did I mention) gorgeous! I was worried it would be too heavy for an early evening spring wedding but the temps in Southern California were quite chilly, so this dress was perfect. I was overwhelmed with piles of compliments. Most importantly, I was super comfortable dancing, drinking, and eating through a long night of wedding festivities. My most favorite rental ever! 

The dress I was supposed to wear didn't fit quite right and the second size wasn't available to ship. This was my last-minute replacement dress and ended up perfect. It fit beautifully and was so comfortable. My only complaint is that the lining needs to be sewn to the top layer. All night while dancing, the lining kept riding up way above my knees and twisting all the way around. I made several trips to the bathroom to hike up the dress and fix the lining. A few darts down both sides would easily fix that issue.

I'm just under 5'4" and don't wear tall heels. Seemed a tad short so bought 1" pumps to pair with it. Would have worked perfectly.
