I took this to Paris because I thought the lace just screamed France.  Wore it out to a swanky dinner and it was just gorgeous...compliments aplenty and I felt fabulous in it. Will rent again for a special occasion.

Fit like a dream, elegant, and the detail is wonderful. I did not have the problems with tight sleeves that other renters have reported, but the dress is fitted (flatteringly), so I can see how that might happen. 

Loved this dress. Got so many compliments. Fits just right and is very flattering. Will be renting again for other formal events in the future. 

Perfect midi length, the lace cutouts were a perfect distraction from my walking boot, and the high neck/cap sleeves are an elegant/modest touch if the event calls for it. Agree with others—this is not a dancing dress as you can’t lift your arms up. Full skirt and high waist comfortably hide the stomach/hips of those are areas of concern while defining a waist. Would 100% recommend!

The length on my 5’9” frame was spot on for mid-calf. The dress accentuated my waist and shoulders, which is exactly what I wanted. There wasn’t that much difference between the 10 and the 12, so I went with the 12 for a bit more comfort for dancing. I paired it with red suede pumps for a splash of color. 

This dress is absolutely beautiful!  I received many compliments! The fit was very comfortable. The fabric was heavier than I thought it would be, but perfect for a fall wedding.  Would rent again!

I was able to wear my normal black bra, perfect for a large chest. A little heavier material than anticipated. Would rent again for comfort and classic-ness.

I loved this dress. The 6r fit me a little better but the arms were too tight for an entire evening so I went with the bigger size for comfort. It was longer than I expected but still a good length. I opted for a sticky bra since I went with the bigger size. I really liked this dress. 

This dress was perfect and I felt amazing in it. I'm short, 5'1" so the length (supposed to be tea length) worked for me with a short, chunky heel. 
Customer service was top notch. I originally ordered a dress that was way too long and customer service worked with me quickly and easily to get me in the right dress in plenty of time for my event. This is my first experience with RTR and I am very pleased! 

A stunning, well made dress that was so flattering I wanted to keep it. Neck and arms are a bit snug so I had to size up so I could lift my arms and not feel choked. Overall, I adored wearing this and was sad to send it back. 

I rented this for my company Christmas party and it was beyond perfect! Classy and glamorous without being too sweet. The cutouts gave a touch of edginess that offset the high neckline and long skirt really well. It was fun to walk in too - the lace skirt is a bit stiff, so it moved really nicely when I walked and made me feel like a duchess. I got so many compliments, some from strangers who literally stopped in their tracks. Absolutely would rent again. 

I wore this dress to two events: a formal dinner for work and then to a Halloween wedding. I loved that the dress looked great with a number of different accessories. The length of the dress was really flattering, it fit like a glove, I LOVED the cutout detail in the torso....no complaints here! This was my first RTR experience. I can't wait till I have another opportunity to rent again!

Beautiful dress. I was worried the sleeves would be tight but they were just fine. The peek a boo of the lace gives it a sexy classy look. Loved this dress. 

I'll start off by saying that I've NEVER gotten so many compliments on a dress before!! It felt perfect for fall with the high neckline + longer length, but still cute and a little sexy with the sheer parts in the bodice. There is pretty much no stretch - couldn't lift my arms all the way - but the 10 was perfect for me & was extremely comfortable. So happy with this rental.

It fit great, a little snug on my arms but I have chubby arms.  

I usually wear a size 8 but I sized up and I'm glad I did. It fit great and I got so many compliments that evening!

Such a beautiful dress! I received compliments all night long in this dress and I felt like a million bucks! I was surprised at the length-I'm 5'10" and usually dresses are always shorter on me but this one hit just where it was supposed to. The lace was simply stunning. 

Wore for work holiday party
Easy to style and flattering 
Beautiful quality piece 

A little tight on top and sleeves but I’m pretty big and it still fit. Can wear a bra and it’s barely noticeable. Pic is at end of night because I always forget to take it before! 

I wore this to officiate a friend’s wedding and it was the perfect combination of classy and fun. The wedding was outside in fall and it was breezy so the lace kept me cool under the stress of officiating my first wedding! My preferred size couldn’t ship so I had to wear the back up size and even though it was larger than it needed to be, it worked out! 

This dress didn’t require a fancy bra, shape wear, or tape- a win for sure! I did wear a T-back bra so the straps didn’t show through the lace sleeves. The arms were a bit snug as others have mentioned but otherwise it was roomy. Nice quality - loved wearing it. 

Sleeves were a little tight in the arm but my arms are bigger. I wore a black tank underneath as not to see my skin at the waist 
It is a heavy dress and great quality. I wear a size 10 short jean and this was a 12. It fit perfect 

Really loved this dress. Very unique. Felt fully covered despite the skin. I did find this dress tight in the ribs and think I would have been more comfortable in a larger size. Still looked great. 

I loved this dress, and have been looking for an occasion to wear it. The dress worked well for a Spring wedding. If you get hot easily I wouldn’t recommend this mid weight fabric dress in the summer. However, I found it comfortable to wear and overall flattering for my pear shaped body. The size 6 fit my 42” hips which is always a concern for me. I did not have any issue dancing because of the shoulders/sleeves being sung as others have mentioned. 

Wore this to a formal family party. Got lots of compliments! I’m usually a 12 — I got a 10 as my back up size after reading reviews and I wish I would have gotten a 14 instead. She was very tight in the arms and in the waist. She zipped, but she was tight! 

I love this dress and would’ve bought it if I had any reasons to wear it 😂 It has zero stretch but felt pretty true to size. I’m 5’3” and it came to my ankles, perfect to show off cute shoes. 

I loved this dress! The black lace is classic but the cut outs make it so unique and different. I am 5’7 and I felt like it was a little long and it had sewn in hanging loops that showed through the cutouts that I had to tuck into my bra to hide, which wasn’t easy with a high neck, back zip dress. But I would still absolutely wear this again. 

This was a stand out dress even at an event where everyone was dressed to stand out. I was very pleased with this rental. I rented both the 12 and 14. I could have worn the 12 but went with the 14 for comfort. The arms and neck were small on the 12 but it fit beautifully everywhere else. 

I wore this for a semi formal event with my husband’s company. I usually wear a 4 but the 2 was absolutely perfect. I didn’t feel like it was constricting my neck or arms at all. It is proper tea length so if you like a little more calf and shin exposed it might not be for a petite person. I loved it though. If I could walk in higher heels, I think a dramatic high pump would look amazing with it too. It felt proper and sexy at the same time. I got plenty of compliments and felt like the best dressed person there. Wish I could buy this to keep forever! Will definitely be trying more dresses by this designer. 

Aesthetically, the dress is divine. I wore a size 4- would’ve liked to go up a size but it was unavailable. It was stiff around the arms and neck but I got thru the night just fine. Gorgeous detailed laced dress. 

This dress couldn’t be more of a class act. Timeless, truly. I felt beautiful wearing it while officiating my cousin’s wedding! 

I loved this dress and I still do, but it was a little too tight on me and I could not lift up my arms at all. The material does not stretch so I just felt as though I would be uncomfortable trying to dance at a wedding.
