Rented this dress for a wedding rehearsal dinner. The fabric is thick, but does not have any give or stretch to it. It's a bit on the short side so could be an issue for tall girls and does run a little big in the chest but I opted to wear the bigger size for the length. Despite the fit not being perfect, I still received tons of compliments on it and felt comfortable in it for a dinner but not sure I could have worn it all night long at a wedding or event. 

Rented for my friends bachelorette at a winery. It was a daytime event and was able to transition it to an evening Fourth of July weekend get together. Loved double dipping this event. Is very short, but so is life so wear it! 

Seriously great fit, great for summer as the fabric is pretty thin and breezy. Easy to find a bra to go with this dress. Overall, it was extremely comfortable and the pattern was classy. Loved it!

Not a great pic, sorry! But probably the most compliments I have ever received on a dress! The embellishments are incredibly unique and beautiful! BUT, this dress wasn't incredibly well made--it had no liner-- and the arm holes were strangely large so I was worried about my bra showing the whole night--you can seem them gaping in the photo. (Fwiw, I'm short-waisted, but normally still don't have that problem). Like most shift dresses I've ordered from RTR, this one is super short--so watch out! I kept on having to pull it down at church! In all, a fun dress but not my favorite from RTR.

It fit well. Not too short, I'm 5'5". And just low enough not to show too Much cleavage. It must have been worn a bit because the arm holes were stretched out a bit. But it wasn't super noticeable. I wore this in Vegas. Perfect for dinner and dancing!  Highly recommend! 

Fit true to size. Loved the colors and design. Great length for petite people!! 

I rented the 4 and 6, and the 6 was actually more tight on than the 4, giving me more shape so I wore that one. The 4 was more stretched out and boxy. Nice thick fabric that didn't stretch out while wearing; is short like others have mentioned but not uncomfortably short!

Wish I could have kept this dress!  It was a show stopper and I got so many compliments on it!

Normally wear a 4..and this 4 fit perfectly! The only down side is that it is a bit on the shorter side. I am 5'5" and I had to make sure not to bend over. Got lots of compliments and it was perfect for an end of summer wedding! I don't want to return it! 

Both the 4 and the 2 fit great, however, I ended up wearing the size 2 because it had a little more shape to it then the 4. It is pretty short so if you are a taller girl, I would be careful with this one. I am only 5'2" so it was ok on me but I wouldn't have wanted it any shorter at all. The colors were beautiful and I loved the design! Definitely a fun dress! 

I really liked this dress. I was worried it would be too short, but I was able to dance and sit in it just fine. I do still wish it were just a BIT longer but I'm glad I wore it. I got a ton of compliments and was comfortable all night — without wearing a sack. I wound up wearing the 12 because I thought maybe it was a little longer than the 10. The top was a bit big in the 12 but it was better overall. I have a bigger butt (lots of squats!) so maybe it would sit a little longer on someone slimmer.  

Some have mentioned that the fabric is thick, so I was surprised by how light the dress was. I wore it to a wedding in August (ceremony outside) and was comfortable. 

My only complaint other than it being a tad short is that the pattern sort of highlights the lower tummy area, which is my trouble spot. I loved it enough that I decided I didn't care, but it's something to consider. 

This is a gorgeous dress - the colors and fabric are beautiful.  I would have given it 5 stars if it weren't for just two very minor fit characteristics-- it is very short!  For some this isn't an issue at all, and I did end up wearing it and not minding the short length when I was out for my birthday, but beware you will be showing a lot of leg!  The other thing was that the armpit holes go kind of low.  I tried on several bras that wouldn't work because they showed a lot of the side bra.  Finally one of my low strapless bras worked well.  Aside from these minor things, this dress rocked... Would totally rent again. Great experience with RTR!!

I went with the size 6 purely for length. Being 5'2" I never worry about dresses being too short on me but this one was!!  I went a size up for a little added length. It was bigger in the upper body so I used safety pins to tuck the under arms in a bit. Overall gorgeous dress for a summer wedding...definitely shows off a tan. I got many compliments. And having been at a wedding where almost all the guests wore black or dark colors I was quite happy I had this dress on! 

Fit great and was very eye catching. A little on the shorter side, but still very comfortable. I wish I owned this dress.

I ordered a 0 and 2, the 0 was very difficult to get around my butt/hips so opted for the 2 which fit great. short dress but I liked how it could be worn with a normal bra and showed off my legs with nude pumps. I would have liked to own this one! 

It was a great dress! Vibrant colors. I thought that the top was a little large, but the bottom was tight. Thick material. Wasn't thrilled with it, but I definitely liked it. Recommended. 

I absolutely LOVED  this dress. I wore it to my friends wedding and although it was tight and short, it was great to wear on such a nice summer day. Its really unique and would definitely wear this dress again! 

A very beautiful (but very short) dress. Perfect for a night out. Gorgeous colors. Good for taking pictures! Overall love the colors. 

The fabric was a little heavy and it rode up when dancing, but I liked how it fit and the color was perfect for my Indian wedding

The material was thick, and as other reviews mentioned the dress was definitely short. There was not a lot of sitting so it wasn't a problem for me, but that's definitely something to keep in mind. I have a wide back, so I worry about the fit especially since heavily embroidered material often doesn't have a lot of 'give' to it. But I was able to pull it on, no problem. I was even able to dance the entire night away in the dress, and got so many compliments on it. I would even consider buying it, if RTR ever decides to sell it!

This dress is great! It's super comfy and forgiving without being too baggy/shapeless. It's also short which I love since I'm 5'3" and dresses are usually longish on me. The colors were also perfect for beach pictures :)

The material was thick, but my what a gorgeous dress!!!!  It's definitely more red/blue than the picture, but it worked great.  It was fitted enough to give some shape, and at the same time, sorta loose around the belly, hiding my problem area.  It was shorter than I would normally wear, but was good for a vacation daytime dress with flats.  I got so many compliments on it and felt like a million bucks. I will be renting this again.

This dress was perfect for the fiesta-themed birthday party we hosted! They sent a 10 because it was a backup size for another dress I had ordered that wasn't available, and this was a last minute add (the RTR staff was awesome about it!). The dress was loose and the 8 might have worked better, but because I'm relatively tall, I appreciated the larger size because it was definitely short! All in all I loved this dress and highly recommend it. 

I wore this in July for my 29th birthday party as my free birthday dress!  It was super fun and fit well. I am usually in between a 2 or a 4, but I opted for the 4. Both the 2 and 4 were pretty comparable in size.. The only drawback is that it is short! I'm barely 5'5" and I had to really watch out when I sat down or bent over.. 

This dress was a tight fit, but once I got it zipped up, it fit absolutely perfectly. I got SO many complements!

I rented this dress for an early September wedding and could not have been happier with it! The colors are considerably more vibrant than the model's photographs suggest (I remember thinking it looked a little 4th of July when I first took it out of the box), but I received nonstop compliments both during and well after the wedding. The dress is definitely short (tall girls beware), but a great option for those of you who want to show a little leg without revealing too much on top. It's shape also held up well in the rain, which is more than I can say for my hair... A real statement dress. Loved wearing it!

I ordered the 0&2 and wore the 0. It fit true to size - though was a bit short, and I'm pretty short, but wasn't a big deal. The colors are so vibrant, and went great with a denim jacket and low cowboy boots for a bachelorette party at a Toby Keith bar!

I wore this dress for a date night during the week of our San Francisco elopement. The dress was definitely short, but still appropriate with flats. Fit was comfortable and there is plenty of room for larger chested ladies!

The colors of this dress are stunning! It's true that there isn't much stretch to it so I had to make sure to pull the skirt down every time I got up from sitting. I paired it with some blue heels and felt fabulous! Another wonderful rental from RTR!

Sadly this was the only pic I got of the dress, and it's not very much to go off. The dress is beautiful, high quality and really pretty colors. It is SHORT though, and I'm 5'2"! Like, I had to put my napkin over my lap or else things would have been real weird. :-/ It was a also a bit snug. I'm a true size 2, and I still wore the 2 but it was a little tighter than I would have liked. The 4 was more comfortable and a bit longer, but it was obviously loose. I wouldn't rent it again, cause it was just too short. 

Fit perfect. I sized down so it would be more fitted and sexy.

It was a little big in the chest area on me but that wasn't a major problem. Also it rides up very easily while sitting down and dancing but since its not super tight it gives you the freedom to move around easily. It's also a little short for girls with long legs. The whole process of getting the dress was very simple and flawless. I will definitely rent from RTR again!! 

I wore this to a wedding in Sonoma. It fit me like a glove but did a good job of hiding my  little tummy. I felt glamorous all night. 

This dress is beautiful but it was very short.  It looked amazing on I just felt uncomfortable, I would have felt more comfortable if I ordered up. a size. I kept pulling the dress down especially when sitting. At dinner I put my napkin over my lap because the dress went up a lot. I did receive many compliments and I loved the dress just order up a size as your back up.  RTR was so easy to order from it was delivered so quickly and easy return just put in the return bag and in a drop box, done! I was so happy I didn't have to buy two new dresses for my friends birthday weekend! 

I wish I had ordered a size up. I typically wear a 4 or 6, but I ordered/wore the 4. The dress was really pretty with great colors, I received lots of compliments, however it was very short. It was difficult to sit or to raise my arms overhead without flashing everyone. I definitely could not dance in this size. 

Love the bag with it. What color shoes did you pair it with?

I paired it with nude open toed shoes but I also think it would look with dark brown!

I rented this dress to wear to a casual rehearsal dinner and loved it, I could not tell from the pictures that it was a cotton material but that was fine as I wore it to a more informal event. I received a ton of compliments all night and would definitely rent this one again!

My favorite RTR so far! Rented for a bachelorette party and received compliments all night long. It fit pretty tight throughout but was still very comfortable. This dress is definitely short and shows off a lot of leg ;) but doesn't feel too revealing since the neckline and back are not low cut. 

I wish I owned this dress! It was actually a replacement dress because the one I originally got was too small, and I couldn't have hoped for a better substitute! I don't know if I'm the best person to advocate on the fit because I am an 8 or a 10 and I only received the 12. The sleeves/straps were definitely one part of the dress that was bigger than other places. This is also a fabric that is not stretchy at all, so when I was sitting it stretched out and didn't reshape, but I wore this for my 21st birthday and I'm pretty sure my body is still thanking me for wearing a looser dress haha. The colors are so vibrant and all my friends want to borrow this dress from me hahaha

The embroidery is beautiful but the dress has no stretch whatsoever and is hard to fit on pear shaped girls. I'm typically a 2 and wore a 6 in this dress in order to fit around my hips. It was a beautiful sheath though!
