Rented this for KY Oaks, but wore it the day before instead. Received a ton of compliments. Only "con" is specific to people like me with hips: it runs small, and you're constantly pulling it down. I'm small up top, with bigger hips, so struggle with this problem a lot. The material around the waist bunches up a bit if your hips are like mine, but the dress is otherwise beautiful. 

The dress was a snug fit and but was very comfortable. It was also a  good length right at above knees so very appropriate for weddings and yet a fashionable piece for party later. My first RTR and will definitely be re-using it. Highly recommend getting 2 different sizes as a precaution, I usually size up or down based on the dress fit. 

I loved the dress overall and got many compliments! The material felt amazing and it came in really good shape. I usually wear a 6-8 but felt that the size 8 was too snug, the 10 fit more comfortably. The biggest problem I had was getting the zipper past the waist portion where the dress is the tightest. You have to get the zipper really parallel (if that makes sense..) to  have it zip smoothly. It took a lot of work on my husbands part to get it zipped but once it got zipped, I didn't want to take it off:) I was glad I went a size bigger. I will be using RTR again soon for my brother's wedding!!  

The dress ran a little small, I ordered a size up.  It was hard to get the zipper up.  Once I had it on, it felt fine.  

Other reviews and recommendations on this dress are accurate, it runs a little small for size (at least the 4) and has nearly no give. I'm a 'small' 4 and squeaked by with a 4.  Fabric and construction are very high quality, and the dress appeared new.  The dress drew raves from many at this wedding (of all ages), and it was very unique in style,cut and color.  I used the special 'tape' provided by RTR to hold it perfectly across the chest, as I am 6" shorter than the nodel in the picture!  Overall excellent choice and worth the cost.  

Perfect proportions! The cut is impeccable, and the materials camouflage anything you don't love about your hips.  Nips in at the waist-- love the interior architecture there-- and the neckline would be flattering on anyone.  Hem was a little longer on me than on the model (that's a good thing).  Was able to sit, dance, eat, and basically have a blast all night without thinking twice about the dress!

I really liked the vivid color and different style of the dress.  The material is a little on the heavy side and a bit rougher than I expected, but it was fine for a Labor Day weekend evening wedding.  I was a little worried it'd be too small since I didn't have it in a backup size, but the 2 fit fine.  It was a little snug at the hips and a little loose up top, but really nothing too off.  I wore nude platform pumps since the dress went a little longer on me (short legs) but still hit right around my knees.  I don't have any great full-length photos but I uploaded some so you could see how the dress draped.

This dress was unreal. So, so flattering. Makes your waist look tiny, and the cut and the shoulder draping make this dress so unique. You're guaranteed to get a ton of people asking about where it's from (it happened to me!). The material is a little thicker, so it's definitely not for summer. But I might rent this again for a wedding I have coming up in the late Fall - would be perfect!

Warning: does run a little small. Had to really suck in to get the last bit of the zipper all the way up!

This was my first order from RtR and after this experience, I can't wait to place another order! 
I ordered a size 2 & 4 ... depending on vanity sizing, I'm sometimes a 2. But the 4 fit amazingly well and I didn't even try on the 2. Though if I had to critique the fit, it was the teeny tiniest bit snug in the hips since the skirt has no give and I'm a bit pear shaped.
I received many compliments on my dress, even compliments the next day after the wedding. The dress was exactly as pictured, the materiel felt exactly as expected, and I would recommend this dress. Loved it and my whole experience with RtR!
