Really comfortable for a beautiful, formal gown. Loved it!

Loved the dress. I wore it with low heels (gold) so that it would be floor length. Option to wear it off the shoulder or on. Received a ton of compliments. Would definitely wear again!

I had three dresses to choose from, I loved them all, this one was a bit tight under the arm. So I ended up wearing a different one, but this dress was gorgeous. 

Rent this dress!  This dress was sent to me as a back up, but I fell in love with the fit and style.  It's SO classy and so comfortable.  I knew I wanted to wear higher heels, so I was happy I selected the long.  The neckline isn't really off the shoulder like on the model, but it just helps with your ability to wear a normal bra (always a bonus for a formal dress!)  I wasn't sure about the sheer panels, but they are not  as obvious as on the model and they added just enough "sass" to the dress.  If you are deciding between two sizes, select the smaller version as there is plenty of give to the dress.  I would completely rent this dress again.  It is stunning in person and pictures cannot do this dress justice.  A RTR Fav!!

Heavy material form fitting and comfortable

I love this designer. No zippers, no fuss. Pull it on and go. Gorgeous dress. Perfect for black tie. Wear big jewels or simple. Great dresss

My fiance and I decided to make part of our engagement pictures a little more formal, so I turned to RTR to find the perfect gown for it. This was my first time using RTR, so I was extremely nervous about renting something vs buying - what I would normally do. I was able to try on the 38R in Chicago, but decided to wear heels and requested the L instead. I ended up wearing the 40L (my back-up).This dress was absolutely stunning! I even had passersby telling me what a beautiful dress it was. The sheer panels on the bottom don't really pop as much as they do on the model, but they are more visible in the actual photos. I had also seen other comments about the top of the neckline popping out instead of laying flat, which you can see in my picture as well, but I overall did not have a problem with that. I paired it was some chandelier earrings, a collar necklace, and red peep-toe heels. With such an easy renting and returning process (in addition to some beautiful dresses!), I will definitely be renting again!

This was the perfect dress for a black tie wedding in June in TX. The stretch of the material is good if you have an athletic build and can’t wear more fitted gowns. I’m 5’4”, 135 lbs & 36C. I wore the 40R with 3 in. heels and it just skimmed the floor.

This dress was so comfortable and fit amazing! The fabric is stretchy so you won’t be adjusting anything. You can’t see in the pictures but there are layers of sheer detailing at the bottom. I got tons of compliments. 

The material, weight and fit of this dress were perfect. The comment that I received numerous times was simply: " Stunning!" I'd rent this again!

The material and fit were incredible. It has a bit of stretch so great for curvy figures. The detail in super simple but makes thw dress out! Very happy I went with this one for such a big night! 

I rented this for a nonprofit gala at the last minute. These pix are in my hallway and don't do the dress justice. It is the perfect long black dress--goes on over the head, thick stretchy material fits beautifully without clinging to bulges, never constricting in any way and a beautiful swirl to the long full circle skirt. I'm 5 9 and the L was great w 2 inch heels. 

This is a great dress.  I wore it to a black tie gala and it worked perfectly.  It is incredibly comfortable - no zippers and lots of stretch.  You step into it through the neck and pull it up.  I struggled to keep the sleeves "off the shoulder" (even double sided tape wouldn't work) - but it looked very elegant even without that.  I wore it without a necklace and just wore very long dangling earrings.   I wore 3" heels and the long was the perfect length.  It scraped the ground but was fine.  it is a lot of skirt - which looks beautiful when you move and is gorgeous for dancing - but you do have to manage it carefully on stairs.  While there are sheer panels on the skirt - I did not find it to be revealing or risque.  I did not wear stockings or a slip underneath as some have said they did in their reviews and felt perfectly comfortable at a very proper gala.  I did wear a unitard/spanx piece underneath that had a bra. But, the dress is a thick enough stretch fabric you could go without a bra or other spanx as it has some of its own "hold."  it is truly one of the most comfortable formal dresses I have ever worn and I would definitely rent this again.  

Loved this dress, fit like a glove. I wasn't entirely sure what to do with the sleeves but it worked having them off the shoulder or having them come up a bit while dancing. I'm between a 4-6 and got the 4, which was right move. Very flattering and got lots of compliments 

Received so many compliments on this dress! This was my backup but so glad I got it. I'm 5'9 and wore heels and the dress was still a little long but it is SO comfortable and was able to dance all night long. I thought it might be too plain but the detail on the skirt is stunning. Fit was perfect, material is stretchy and forgiving. I probably could've sized down but I think the 40 fit fine

Hi! This dress, like all other Chiara Boni dresses is supposed to be stepped INTO to put on, not pulled over your head. The fabric is incredibly stretchy so it is very easy to do. Hope this helps anyone who might rent or purchase this dress in the future. Thanks!

Loved this! However the see through part started was too high up so I wore a short black slip that ended mid-thigh. Also be aware that there's no zipper so this comes on and off over the head. Consider this when you're planning if you're getting hair & makeup done when wearing this dress. 

Fit well. Nice thick fabric. Very slimming. 

Need to wear strapless bra. Length was perfect!

This dress is amazing... The material has just the right amount of thickness and stretch to make it feel SO comfortable and at the same time, SO flattering.  I received compliments all night.  I wore the 40L size which fit better on my shoulders. I ordered the 42L as a backup but the boatneck off-the-shoulder sleeves were continuously bunching up.  (I am a typical size 4, weigh 128 lbs, 34C). I may have been able to wear a regular "R" length at 5'6" but appreciated having the length so I could wear high heels.  The skirt has sheer striped panels that go very high on the legs so I wore black nylons to make the illusion a little less risque...   I loved the wide skirt and beautiful tailoring from the fitted waistline and hips.

I loved this dress! It was so flattering, with material that's thick and stretchy, but not tight on your curves. I wore this to a Mardi Gras ball and felt beautiful but not flashy. I wore Spanx underneath to smooth everything out...and the best part is, you can wear a regular bra. My boyfriend loved this dress and wanted me to wear it to every ball after that. I would definitely rent this again.

Perfect dress as you just slip it on. Comments Received that it was slimming and stunning.

This dress was my backup. It fit perfectly and was extremely comfortable. My only issue is that you cannot see the detail of the skirt in photos and therefore it looked like a lot of dress in me. 



This dress felt like comfortable lululemon leggings- thick and buttery soft! Form fitting with a skirt that flows so pretty as you walk. The stretch at the top allows for you to adjust whether you want it more off the shoulder or not.
