I wish i could wear this dress everyday. Amazing! 

Like other reviewers stated, this dress runs small. I also thought the neck fit really tight and I wonder if a Long would have provided more comfort. Overall, this dress was amazing and I received soooo many compliments. 

This dress was great! It was very fitted. I wore the 6 L with some shapewear for my waist and it was perfect! The dress just grazed the floor with 3.5 in heels. The slit was sexy and the open back was a head turner! 

Wore this dress to a black tie wedding. Dress was a beautiful color and I received tons of compliments. I am typically a size 4 - read a lot of reviews on size and ordered a 4R & 6R. I ended up wearing the 4R because the larger size looked too loose in the front midsection. If you have a longer torso, the halter might dig into your neck a bit as the night goes on but it's worth it. Highly recommend!

Glad I sized up for my backup size, since I wore the bigger one. But it was gorgeous and comfortable and despite lacking stretch, I was able to happily dance the night away. I loved this dress and got compliments all night!

Fits pretty true to size, but definitely order a size up as your backup because that's the one I ended up wearing. Still hugged in all the right places, was just not as suffocating with the zipper and halter too so I was super comfortable. Color is amazing. Lots of compliments. Dusty rose is THE color this wedding season so if you're contemplating renting this dress GET IT!

LOVED this dress! Like other reviewers said, definitely size up at least one, if not 2 sizes. I usually wear a size 4 (size small tops and size medium bottoms) and ended up wearing the 6. It was sexy and elegant, returning it was the worst part!

If you're a little bit thicker on the bottom you should size up one size. You cannot wear a regular bra with this. Thick material to hide flaws for the win!

I was MOH for a last minute wedding, asked the bride to pick. I love that you get a second size free bc a fellow bridesmaid was able to join last minute and didn't like the dress she ordered from a website so ended up wearing my extra 2L size. I am in the 2R! I am 120 pounds and less toned around the torso. so it felt a little tighter for me there. She felt is was tighter around the hips but from our photo you can see her butt filled it better than mine! Loved how it worked out! Great quality. 

I should've gone down a size but this was the first time I had worn a formal dress and wasn't used to the sizing. It was just a little big on me in the waist. I got the long and it was definitely long enough to wear heels in! I may rent again in the future in the smaller size because I loved it! Material is heavy, cut was very flattering! 

Beautiful sleek and simple!  It's nice thick fabric... more salmon colored, as pictured.
 The length was perfect for my petite size also:)  Loved it!  tons of compliments.

This dress was BEAUTIFUL!! Received so many compliments.  The size 6L was the perfect fit!  I'm 5'9" and the dress hung perfectly with 4" heels. Size up though...Im 125 and the 6 was perfect without being too loose or scandalously tight. I wore a mink wrap and the colors complemented beautifully. The slit made it easy to walk and dance. I wore an adhesive bra with it which I felt helped give more shape than just pasties.  

I wore this as a bridesmaid dress and it worked very well. It was flattering and the material was thick so it sucked everything in. It was however VERY small. I ordered my size and 1 size up and i almost couldn't fit into the size up! I was able to squeeze into it but not super comfortably and I wish I had ordered 2 sizes up. 

It does run small. Super pretty color and elegant look.

Fit great, felt great in it!! So easy to do and return. 

This dress was gorgeous, but just too small for me. I usually wear a size 6, and the 8 was still too small. Definitely sucks you in at the waist, but my back fat was bulging over the low back. I'll order in a larger size, and/or tone up my back a bit! 

The fit was a bit small. I usually wear a 0 but went with the 2P. Even the 2 was a bit snug but the material is thick and a bit forgiving so it doesn't look skin tight. I had to wear a cupped bra for the front due to me worrying I would show too much side boob - so if you have larger than a C... I would consider sizing up! Overall great dress and it was a great coral color for a Fall Mountain Wedding!

Perfect for a formal late afternoon/early evening wedding, easy to add bling. I received a lot of compliments on the color. Its more rusty rose than the online photo. The dress is a bit tight around the neckline. I have broad shoulders and a prominent rib-cage, so to loosen it i bought adjustable button keyholes for the back neck buttons which really helped. It's very snug but no spanks needed because the material was think and supportive. If you're athletic/curvy I highly recommend this dress!

This dress was beautiful and perfect for the summer black tie wedding I wore it to. My biggest comment is about size-this dress runs very small! I am 5'2", 125-130 lbs, and I usually wear a 2 or 4 in dresses. I decided to order a 4P and a 6R (the 6P was unavailable) after reading the other reviews saying the dress ran small, and the 6 ended up fitting perfectly. Only the 6R was available unfortunately, so it was a little long on me. I am wearing 5" heels in this picture and the dress still trailed on the ground a bit. The length of the 4P was perfect, so I was bummed the 4 was way too small. If you're below 5'4" I would definitely order the petite size if it's available, or invest in a really tall pair of heels for the regular size. And expect to size one or two sizes up. For reference, I wore another RTR Monique Lhuillier dress this same weekend that was a size 2 and fit perfectly, and in this dress I was a size 6.

Overall it's a beautiful dress and great quality! It's also very flattering-the structured fabric was really slimming on my stomach. I got plenty of compliments and I'm so happy I rented this. Just keep in mind it runs small and the regular length is already pretty long. 

Loved this dress! I wish I had sizes up, because it does run small. It was tighter on the low back portion, but I made it work. 

I felt super confident in this dress and received so many compliments! I was nervous that the back was too open/revealing, but I was assured by my mom that it was still appropriate for a formal wedding. Like others said, the waistband is pretty tight. The dress was a tad loose everywhere else compared to the very narrow waistband (I'm 5'3" and weigh 120). That was my only complaint! And it really only become apparent after I ate dinner haha Overall I loved this dress and would absolutely wear it again! It's so fun and easy to dance in. 

 hard to walk up stairs but the material is super flattering!

Beautiful dress, but definitely runs small. I barely fit into my normal size, and probably would have been more comfortable in the next size had it been available. 

Curve hugging, very low back, BEAUTIFUL but not made for short people lol. I had to buy hemming tape for it to fit my height. 

Absolutely obsessed with this dress. I knew from reading the reviews that I should have ordered a size up, but unfortunately RTR only had my usual size available. I took a chance and went for it, and i'm so glad I did! This dress fit me like a glove. It walks the line between sexy and classy perfectly. I thought the leg slit hit at just the right spot - made dancing easy, but I was never worried it would ride up and show too much though, etc! A size up definitely would have been a bit more comfortable (I found it was a bit tight right around the waist, but otherwise fit me just fine), but my usual size definitely worked. My only advice- you rent this dress, make sure you invest in some seamless underwear. The dress is thick and nice quality but somehow it does show undergarment lines very easily.
