I wish I had ordered my normal size 2, but the guidance was to go for the 4. The dress was still wearable and very cute, but would have been a lot nicer if the fit had been a bit more snug. 

I got a lot of compliments on this dress, but it wasn't very easy to wear for me. I am more curvy on the bottom and it rode up throughout the evening and I had to keep adjusting it. 

This dress is incredibly flattering! I thought the cut was bit odd but still ordered it worried it would show all my flaws #apple but it is super flattering for all shapes and sizes! The structure and thickness of the material hid my midsection while the cut created a flattering silhouette. 

Wore this for a baby shower and had so many complements!! Fit so well!

Despite the heavy material, I stayed cool and light on a hot day on the town. The material has no give so size up. 

I only wish the stomach area was a little tighter but other than that it was perfect. Great for wearing to daytime formal events such as a graduation, brunch, etc

This is an adorable dress. Great quality fabric - it is thicker- with cute detail under the bust. However the detail on the lower part went right across my butt and there was extra fabric by my hips. I already have curves - I don't need extra fabric also! I think because I'm taller it didn't fit the way it was supposed to. I think this would look better on someone with a more athletic body or shorter so the band at the bottom sits where it needs to. Such a cute dress though! 

The dress was fun and I loved the pattern, but it was really big and not flattering. It was only fitted in the chest. The resy was really boxy and not flattering....

This dress is a great material and fit well. The bottom is definitely pretty poofy but it's cute. I got a lot of compliments. 

I loved the thickness of the material I didn't wear a bra with the dress cause the material was very supportive.  

This dress was a great fit. The material was thicker than it looks but breathable for a hot day. Comfortable room throughout midsection and bust area and still form fitting.  The dress came just above my knees. I am 5'2" 155lbs and I ordered the dress in a size 10.

The fabric of this dress is awesome quality...heavy and textured.  Also, pattern is beautiful, reminds me of the classic Vuitton Damier Azul.  The bright underside color of the dress might even be better...they should have made it reversible.  Also, tassels are on point trendy.

The fit is best meant for someone narrow and straight.  If you are an hourglass like me, dress will over exaggerate your hips. 

Fiance opinion is most important.  He didn't offer one, but when prompted, he said "it was good... preppy and reminds me of the Cape."  

This dress was perfect for our Grecian honeymoon! It was a little tight in my hips but I still loved wearing it. It is a bit thicker of material but worked for my needs.

Favorite piece I've ever rented! Even cuter and more flattering standing up because of the A line skirt!

Fit was not what I expected. Seam hit right across widest part of butt, but overall cute and comfortable. 

Loved this dress so much I ended up keeping it. Loved the fit, neckline, color, just everything. 

True to size skater dress with non traditional top!

Wore this dress to the Kentucky Derby. It was actually a back-up to my original dress but it ended up being perfect. The dress is pretty structured - not a lot of stretch but still ended up being fitted in all the right places (chest, back and upper waist). The neckline accentuates those with a larger chest and broad shoulders (oh - that’s me!) and the bottom half flares out to give grace to larger booties/hips. The fabric is preppy and the prettiest of blues making it perfect for a spring time event. I had no issue wearing a regular strapless bra (although the RTR description recommends a nubra/no bra). My tatas were fully covered with no award bra appearances. 

The middle of the dress seemed to make me look heavier. The fabric is heavy. Wore it once on vacation. Wouldn't wear it again. 

Really sweet dress. Easy to wear. Thick, forgiving fabric. It was just a little baggy in the mid-section. Would have love it if it was more nipped-in at the waist.  Still cute enough, but not 5 stars. 

I wish I had sized down for my back up size. I ended up wearing a 2, but still felt it was too large/wide. A 0 would have been more form fitting and flattering with the flare. Overall a fun and casual dress, just runs a little large. 

Loved the different pattern and texture of the dress. A nice one to kick off a vacation or summer night out.

The fit was perfect. I have a bigger chest area but it zipped right up. I was worried about that but it turned out to be one of the best fitting dresses I've ever worn! It definitely redefined my hourglass figure. It's thicker material so the dress is very forgiving on the tummy area after you've had a big meal. 

I LOVED this dress first and foremost. I wore it to dinner in vacation and was a bit overdressed for the restaurant but the dress is so fun I didn't even care. The material is thick and you can feel it's well constructed. I'm 6'1" and it hit me mid thigh and the waist hit me right on my butt. Some other reviews said it fell weird but the 4 seemed to hit me right in the perfect spot. The print and structure of the dress also helped to camouflage my stomach which was a huge added bonus. You can wear a regular Strapless bra with this which is a huge plus too. 

Gorgeous, unique, summery dress. Fit well with just a strapless bra was a good length for me at 5' 2".

Super cute and fitted dress. At little short so you have to watch out for that but would definitely wear again

It ran a little big through the chest and sides. Also, the dress kept creasing between my legs when walking which was super annoying. 

Wore this for a wine/chef tasting fundraiser held at a vineyard.  The dress has great structure so I was able to go without a bra and liked that it's high enough to cover any cleavage.  Its runs true to size but, if you are on the verge of sizes, I would suggest going up instead of down, for back up size.  Can be dressed up or down with shoe selection.  Was shorter than I expected but I am not that tall so it worked fine for me, was just careful not to bend over. This was my first rental and I was very pleased.

First time i rented a shoshana dress and unfortunately it's going back unworn - I was hoping this dress would be fitted enough in chest to skip a bra but even at 32D+ there were gaps in chest area. This dress hit knee length and is very well made of  a thick (+ forgiving) material but missed the mark for this petite RTR subscriber. 

I wish I could keep this dress!  It came brand new with tags on which was very exciting.  The material is thicker than I expected which I liked because it enabled me to wear the dress with no bra.  There is not really any stretch to the fabric however the cut is amazing and allows for plenty of movement.  I have wide hips and the drop waist was not a problem but it could be if my hips were any wider.  Loved the skirt portion. Awesome rental! 

Fun and flirty but also refined and comfy all day. I typically wear a 4 and needed a 2. The waist is very full. The material is very thick and forgiving. The cut of the straps is narrow so caution if you don't love to show your arms. Absolutely adored this look. 

This dress is adorable and perfect for a summer or spring event. The waist line runs a little large, but I sized up to the 8 because some other reviews mentioned it was smaller through the hips. I would agree with the reviews, but I think I still could have been fine in the 6. I felt very comfortable in the 8 and it gave me a little more length. He flare at the bottom definitely gives this a youthful look and makes the dress stand out. 

 The material was such high quality and the ruffles were #divine! 

Wonderful quality. The top is very flattering for large chests, but the seam around the hips doesn't do much for anyone. A bit awkward. Other than that, it's pretty adorable and I'm going to wear it out for a casual girls night. I'd say it's great for a casual summer event or the beach. Can't say enough about the quality of the fabric and structure though!

This dress is so pretty and cute in person. The pictures don't do justice to the fabric. It's a thick, heavier weight that really elevates the design. However, this wasn't the dress for me. I considered hanging onto it for a party, but I have RTR Unlimited and it was easy for me to make a quick return. I usually wear a size 6, but I am wearing a 4 in this picture and found it still very roomy. The white stripe on the bottom hit halfway down across my butt, like a drop waist. I thought that was an unflattering cut and made my stomach look large. I do really like this dress. Would be cute for horse races or another outdoor event!

Loved this dress. So comfortable and beautifully made.  Wore this to Mothers Day brunch and I got tons of compliments.   I would say its much more of a day dress than night dress.  

Didn't want to send this one back. I received so many compliments on the dress. It was comfy and fit great. I didn't have to wear a bra bc the fabric is thicker.
