I normally love the mermaid style for my body type, but this was just meh. It had a lot of extra fabric at the mid-section, so it made me look like I had a pooch. I wanted to love it because the fabric was great and I could move easily to dance!

I got orders to find a lilac or lavender dress for a tea party themed bridal shower, and this fit the bill! Comfortable, elegant, but still fun and not overly dressy. I got a lot of compliments on it, as well!

This dress was perfect for a summer wedding. True to size. Flattering but also not too fitted. The color was unique and I received a lot of compliments!

Color is a purply-pink and the shape is lovely. Even being quite short, I loved how it hit me right above the ankle. Waistband is super unforgiving, and I can see what others said about the arm draping pieces being a bit tight. Overall though, it’s a wonderful dress.

Lovely color and very flattering on my curvy figure! 

Pretty dress and really nice fabric, but way too big and hung on me like a sack. I got the 0R but this fit like a 4R. Size down if you can!

After I rented I got a little nervous about if this was really that great of a dress, but then I loved it! I called it my royal family dress as it was really tailored and a high quality fabric. I went down a size and am so glad I did, if this isn't form fitting it could definitely look frumpy. The arms were a little restricted, but I just put the shoulder piece under my arms when dancing started and I had a full range of motion the rest of the night. Also a bonus to wear a normal strapless bra. 

I was originally hesitant about the ruffles on this dress - it seems to overwhelm the model on the top half, but I was 2 weeks out from a wedding so couldn't be picky. I was also worried that the dress would hit awkwardly low as I'm fairly short (5'4). I was pleasantly surprised on both fronts - the ruffles look MUCH better on folks who wear sizes larger than the model (this is also true in the other photos I looked through of this dress) as it's more in proportion. I think you'd have to wear heels if you're my height, but the length was nice in the end. The color is beautiful and very vivid, and the fabric drapes and doesn't wrinkle. I didn't iron/steam at all and this dress was stuffed in a suitcase and flown across the country. The two things I will point out is that there is a not-forgiving cinch that sits higher on the waist. This makes it really flattering, but also can be uncomfortable when sitting/after eating, especially as I was more in between a 4 and a 6 (I didn't end up trying the 6 on as the 4 fit nicely otherwise). Also, the bottom set of ruffles can restrict your arm movement - but on the dancefloor you can just slip them out of those and have more movement, and no one's watching anyways. Got compliments from friends and strangers again. Bottom line - wasn't expecting to love this dress so much, would actually rent again!

Got so many compliments on this color! This was perfect for a spring wedding. The length was perfect with heels as I am only 5ft.

I wore this dress to a Spring wedding, it fit perfectly, and I got a lot of compliments on it! I would wear it again!!

Beautiful color and style! Compliments all night on how gorgeous the color is! 

wore to outdoor wedding In April in mid west 

Very classy and very flattering. There's some stretch to the dress which hugged my curves just right. If you're curvy like me, you may be best just ordering your true size despite what other reviews say. 

Beautiful dress for a summer wedding that was great length for my height (5'2). Gorgeous color and formal dress! However, the fit was off since the bust was extremely tight and the waist and hips were a bit loose on me. Ladies if you have a bigger bust and/or if you aren't as curvy on the bottom you might think this dress is an odd fit! 

I loved this dress, it was perfect for a rooftop, summery cocktail party. I was getting compliments on the dress and the color all night. :) The one thing I'd recommend is to wear this dress with heels!! It's sort of an awkward length with flats. 

I love this dress! I felt incredible, it is great fabric and the fit was nice. The color was gorgeous too! Would definitely recommend.

I had multiple strangers come up to me at this wedding to tell me how much they loved this dress! Some fit notes: I am typically a 4 (35" bust, 28" waist, 38" hip) & after reading reviews I rented a 4 & a 6. The 4 was ok through the torso but JUST loose enough at the hip/thigh that it became a frumpy church dress. RTR was able to send me the 2 which fit perfectly! Hugged at the hips, flatteringly fitted waist. The back slit means it's easy to walk in even though it's fitted and tea length.

I have small waist and chest so it run a little large on my waist but still looked really good.

I normally wear an 8 but went with the 10 here since the hips were pretty tight on the 8. I am 5'2 so the length was perfect without having to select a petite dress. 

I'm 5'8 160 lbs, usually an 8, but couldn't even get this zipped up. Definitely size up!

This dress looks even better in person. The color is so vibrant and fun. The dress is true to size, but it doesn't have much (if any give) so take that into consideration when ordering.

Great silhouette with enough room for curves. I did size up for a bit more room, but could have worn my true size for a more fitted look. Great thick material held everything in place. The color is so vibrant! 

I wore it for a wedding. It fit perfectly and comfortably. I got several compliments. Such a lovely dress for a spring weeding.

I normally wear a size six, but wore the 8. It was a tad big in th torso but was more comfortable in the hip area with the 8.

Obsessed with this dress! It's a really cute length even for someone as short as me (5"2). I got soooo many compliments!

I love that dress and got so many compliments. I'm usually a 6 or 8 and I ordered a 8 which made the dress not too tight and I was able to dance all night at my friend's wedding.

Rented this dress for a wedding, and received lots of compliments on the color. I thought it fit really well, and while it was form fitting, it didn't highlight typical problem areas. Also did not need to wear a bra.

Easy to dance in. Dress was a little big in the hip area, but I have small hips 

It's gorgeous, vibrant, and fits amazing. I'm 5'3 so I've had issues with RTR dresses being way too long but didn't have that issue here. It's super comfortable, the zipper is a little difficult over the waist seam so you'll probably need someone to help you zip it but other than that it's perfection. It runs large, I got the XS but usually wear S. 

I'm 5 feet tall so this dress came down to my ankles. I was adamant about wearing it though because the color and fit were so flattering. I'm hourglass shaped and it really hugged my curves in the perfect places. I ended up doing a DIY hem with some pins (took an hour...) and got it to be a bit shorter on me. So worth it! 

It fit perfectly, super comfortable and stylish.
