Adorable dress. I thought it fit true to size, maybe runs slightly small but not enough that I would consider sizing up. 

Great for a daytime wedding. The dress is such a beautiful pale green with same color lace and lining. Just above knee length on 5'5". Nice open back detail that is not too revealing and still appropriate for a church wedding and daytime reception. Dress has pockets! 

Dress is stunning, very beautiful. The back cut out was awkward on my body but overall it was a stunning dress and perfect for a country farm wedding that is not too causal. 

Such a pretty color and cute open back. I love the full skirt. Made dancing fun. Pockets perfect for cell phone, key, and gloss. Sturdy material. I received lots of compliment 

Loved this dress. The 8 was tight around my chest so I sized up to the 10. The color was so delicate and beautiful, as were the lace details. The dress was still comfy enough to dance all night in. It is a little on the heavy side but falls beautifully. I might have liked it if it was a bit shorter and hit closer to or above the knee but was still happy with this rental. Though the back details aren't pictured they're very cute and add a fun element to this dress.

Rented this for my rehearsal dinner and loved it. The color, cut, and style are all fun and flirty without being too much for a formal event. Love the back. I usually wear a 4, but I'm glad I went with the 2 in this case. The waist was a smidge tight for me in the 2, but I think if I'd gone with the 4 the bust would have been too roomy. For a few hours going a size down was the right move in terms of getting the fit I wanted.

I got the 14 and 16 dress, turns out he 16 fit better. Comfortable and pretty much a perfect fit. I went to an outdoor wedding so the cutout definitely helped!! I think the only down side was that the dress caught on my bracelet a lot and you definitely need help zipping up! Would definitely rent again. 

Only a 4 was available and I usually wear a 6. It was a bit tight, so true-to-size would probably have been perfect. I'm a tall girl and the length was appropriate which is always a nice surprise! The lace was a bit itchy on the back but that was probably because it was a little small.

Overall, great dress. Rented for a wedding. Like others have said, the top runs a little larger, while the waistband is quite tight. I felt more comfortable in the 4, but my chest simply couldn't fill it out. I chose to wear the 2 and have the waist just a tad tighter than what I'd consider comfortable. Would be absolutely perfect for someone with a tiny waist and larger chest. 

Overall, I thought the dress was very cute. I liked the color, the lacy flowers, the length was good, and I thought the front of the dress was flattering.

What I didn't like was the back of the dress. The open back design on the back is not made for gals with short torsos or girls with a bit of extra cushion on their back....both of which I have. (I'm 5'3" and 185lbs.) I just felt like the back was not flattering at all and that it didn't fit correctly on me. It made me uncomfortable and self-conscious for part of the night.

Otherwise though, I thought it was cute and appropriate for the occasion. I just wish it didn't have that darn open back!

Got so many (and repeated) compliments on this dress! Loved the pockets and lace details.  Some wear, but nothing noticeable. The skirt is full and has several layers, so a little warm. 

Really cute dress! Love the material. The only trouble was the open back. It was just a bit too snug, so it cut me off kind of funky. I ended up wearing a cover up so you couldn't see the open back. 

This dress was great for a Labor Day wedding! Very comfortable, no need for bra, easy to get in and out! Wish it was a little tighter underneath the bust but overall for very well.. true to size. Looks great with silver accessories!

If you are like me and insecure about back fat, this is not the dress for you. The dress is beautiful and delicate from the front. The back is fun and the reason I got the dress. What I forgot to consider was my back-fat. If you are happy with your back and or don't mind then get this dress. I am 5'5, 170 lbs, 36B, wide hips, a true pear shape. I ordered a 10, and 12. The dress is true to size, I wore the 10. The dress is super cute. This was more my hang up than anything else.

The color was lovely, and the shape was very flattering. I had a lot of people who came back to find me during the wedding to tell me they loved the cut-out detail in the back. It was so much fun to dance in, and pockets are always an added bonus. Only issue I had was that I found that the waistline fit tight along my rib cage. I was surprised that it was that tight since I usually wear a 4 or 6, and the 6 was the size I chose to wear for the wedding (mostly because of that issue). I'm sure that tightness helps for not having to wear a bra with the dress (a bra was absolutely not necessary, but I'm also small-chested), but the fit was great otherwise, so I was surprised at that issue. Either way, I would definitely rent it again.

The dress was a success for the rehearsal dinner. The lacy was a little itchy, but the dress was fun! 

Lots of compliments all night. The lower half of the dress is very full, so if you're already big on the bottom you might want to find a different dress.

I am glad I got both the 12&14, I ended up in the 14 because it was just more comfortable. The 12 was a little snug for arm movement. The dress did have an alteration of a new clasp, but it didn't make a big difference in the back. It's is poofy, but I loved it. 

Reviews said the waist was small (and I have a small waist) so I ordered a 4 and a 6 (my two usual dress sizes). I have a small waist and the 6 fit well, but was pretty snug. Unless you have a superrrrr small waist, I would suggest ordering the size up and have your back-up size be two sizes up.
I'm a 34C/D and can rarely go braless, but I went braless with this dress and it was perfect! I had some cleavage, but the flowered overlay covered it nicely :)
I also rented the earrings from RTR and they matched perfectly!!!
