The straps were really long, probably 2 inches too long and were falling off my shoulders. I actually ended up sewing the straps at the top of the shoulder with a few stitches so they fit and just removed the stitches before sending the dress back. Otherwise a great dress. 

I'm normally directly between a 4 and 6 - glad I went with the 4. It's suppose to fit a little snug and it has a little give to it. the shoulder on mine were stretch out a little and they kept falling down. The color is perfect for a spring or summer wedding. 

Wore this dress to a beach formal wedding and it looked great! Felt fabulous! Not super easy to dance in as it has no stretch, but a great fit and not too revealing, yet still attractive and feminine. Loved it!

I am normally a 4 and the 4 fit perfectly!!! 

I usually wear a 6 but also ordered an 8, just in case.  The 8 turned out to be quite ambitious as it was too loose on me to bother with.  I bring up the size 8 dress anyway because the edges of the lace on the straps was pretty tattered... to the point where even if it had fit, there's no way I would've worn it anyway.  It looked really messy.

The 6 I ended up wearing was beautiful.  The zipper stuck in some spots, but not a big deal.  It was a little loose in the straps & on my waist, but I have fuller hips/thighs, so I couldn't have gone down a size anyway.  Regardless, I thought it looked great and got a few compliments! It hugged my curves without being restricting, so I could have some fun on the dance floor.  The back is too low to wear a bra with, so I used those sticky ones that are just cups... Probably could've gone without a bra entirely with the built-in bodice, but because of the loose straps, I wanted to make sure I didn't have an incident if the straps slid off my shoulders!  The length was perfect as well, not too short and not too long!  The vibrant color was great for a spring/summer wedding.

Sidenote - this was my first RTR experience so I had a few questions and the customer service was awesome at responding super quickly!

This dress fit great and I loved the lace details.  It is a little more pink than the pictures show, but a beautiful color.  I usually wore a size 4 and ended up wearing the 4 in this dress because that was the only size available.  I could probably have sized down to the 2 if it was an option.  Definitely go a size down as the backup size.  The V in the back was just high enough that I was able to wear a strapless bra without the back strap showing.  I wore this with the Nicole Miller Star Light Star Bright Necklace and it looked great!

Wore a backless bra, everything looked great, was a little tight sitting down,and some slippage of the straps. I have a very wide back and larger shoulders, but I was able to zip up the back by myself! Great color and my first time ordering.

This dress allowed me to strut through the room with confidence. It was a great pink spring/summer color and the lace added a touch of elegance. The straps have the potential to be big but I am big busted (36DD) so they laid perfect on me! The dress was comfortable and easy to wear. 

The top of the dress runs a tiny bit big.  When I tried it on at first, I almost didn't wear it.  However, I then discovered there is a bathing suit top-like fastener in the back that made it a little tighter.  The color is even more beautiful than what the pictures show.  Try to find a bra with a similar color to the dress as the straps show a little bit.  It's awesome, and I wish I owned it.

I rented this dress for my rehearsal dinner and was very happy with it.  The color was gorgeous, and I received tons of compliments on the dress. The neckline wasn't too low for a formal occasion and the shape was flattering without being tight. It was comfortable all  night and very easy to wear. It did fit slightly large but didn't look baggy or sloppy because of the high quality. 

This dress is simple yet gorgeous and was perfect for a July wedding I'm Maine. The length was appropriate for hours of twirling and dancing and while the fabric didn't stretch, the fit was actually more forgiving than expected. Be warned that the color is definitely watermelon pink, (not red like it appears in the picture) but for me, that was what I wanted and expected (of course I also learn from the reviews!) rent this dress when you have a chance - you won't regret it!

I LOVED this dress... Wish I owned it :) I had a baby five months ago so I was a little nervous to rent  (as I'm still in between sizes) but it proved to be a very flattering dress. Not too tight, not to loose... Very comfortable for a formal event. Definitely rent it!

Fit perfectly! There was a little stretch and it was longer/more conservative. I love the lace and it was absolutely perfect for Bingo in Sea Island. Will rent again!

LOVE this dress!! The color is absolutely fantastic - wore it to an outdoor wedding in August and this "watermelon" or "raspberry" color was definitely the color of the season (saw this color a lot at the Emmy's). I absolutely adored the way it fit - this was great for someone like me who's a little more curvy and has a large bust - I felt cute and sexy but didn't feel like I was flaunting anything (I'm not a fan of flaunting cleavage). The straps were a teensie bit loose, but it was only a minor issue while I was sitting - once I got up and started moving, the straps were fine. My favorite part was I could wear a normal bra with it since I have one that matched the color very well - even with the lacy straps, you couldn't really tell I was wearing a bra, so I loved that. As for size, I'm truly in-between sizes on this one - ended up wearing the 10 and it was just slightly too big, but the 8 was just barely too snug. Extremely flattering and it was so hard to pack it up to send back - I will definitely rent this again!

I LOVED this dress and received many compliments while wearing it.  The color just has to be seen in person.  It's a very bright watermelon pink.  I thought the dress was very comfortable.  The straps did fall down a little bit, but it really wasn't a problem.  The back is pretty low.  I wore a low back strapless bra with it, and it worked out great!  Highly recommend this dress and pairing it with a turquoise necklace.

This dress was gorgeous and fit perfectly. I'm 5'7, so a lot of dresses run short on me, but this dress length was perfect and very appropriate for the event. I got so many compliments that night and after! 

Amazing fit! Very comfortable dress to move in, even with a lined corset boning. 

Just like all the other reviews mentioned, the straps are super big. I temporarily sewed them down for the evening, otherwise they would have fallen every time I moved. The color is very pretty and the length is nice, not too short not too long. There is a sort of built in 'bra' that hooks in the back that was a little tight, but it reminded me too stand up straight and keep it all sucked in. I think almost every female at the wedding complimented the dress! This is was my first rental and I'll definitely be back for more! Great experience.

I was worried it would be short, but it was not at all. The V was a bit lower in the back than I anticipated, so I couldn't wear a bra without seeing it. But this wasn't an issue because you couldn't tell. The inside has a corset and belt that fastens tight around the inner waist. The size 8 fit me perfectly, but after eating and drinking for hours, I wish I had worn the 10. 

Dress fit true to size, I had to wear a backless bra with it due to the low, but it was so perfect!
