Very flattering and flirty.
I loved the red color, the high-low hem, and the shape of the dress-- but the material is uncomfortable and there are zippers on the sleeves.

Excellent professional yet fun dress for a convention!
This dress is body-con. I wish I had ordered the back-up 6. I wore it anyway with a black blazer and tights but felt it was just a touch too small in the hips.

The plunge neckline is a nice peek-a-boo for date night.
If you're a 4/6, rent the SMALL not the medium. The medium may feel more comfortable, but it is not the way the dress is made to fit. I wish I had ordered a back up small. The sleeves were a touch long and the waist was not as fitted as it needed to be.

Beautiful color and texture!
Like a couple comments before, I found this dress to be tight in the arms. It's not the fit but the cut of the dress that makes it that way. Have help zipping into it-- it's worth it!

Great Color, Fit, & Print
I wore this dress to a bridal high tea. It was a perfect size 6. I loved the contrasting neon colors that peeked out at the chest and back zipper.

Photographs great!
The brocade fabric was figure flattering and great under the lights. The cut was forgiving too-- which is always a nice addition.

Peplum waist is a flattering cut!
The dress runs large in the waist so I would consider sizing down if you're a true hourglass. The fabric is elegant and well lined.

This is a conservative dress with a stunning open back!
The dress has light boning so it keeps a great shape. You might want to safety pin the back eye hooks if your going to do a lot of dancing!

Dinner Party Dress
This is a great fall transition dress in the south! The fabric is lightweight and fit is flattering. It has quite a bit of grey in the print so I paired it with grey patent heels.

Lovely Print
I wanted to wear this dress on date night and I read all the reviews that said it ran big-- I found it ran two sizes too big! I normally wear a 6, and would have needed a 2 to be sure. I couldn't even belt it to keep it up. Other than the mistake in size, the dress was fun and flirty and I would try it again!

I wore this to an awards ceremony. It was a classic look with a lovely modern twist! The color is a bright, fun, orange.

Trendy and Tight
I loved the look and feel of this dress but it was not as flattering as I had hoped. I knew it would fit snuggly, but I was not confident or comfortable enough to actually wear it out.

A new hit color of fall!
I wore this dress to a casual rehearsal dinner. This dress was a lovely tomato red color but the "faux leather gold" stripes were actually black with flecks of gold on them. It was not what I was expecting according to the picture. Also, the dress ran large in the bust and was a very short 36".

This was a great dancing dress!
I wore this dress to a 4:30 outdoor wedding and loved it! The color stood out and the fit was perfect for spinning on the dance floor. The dress is a little big in the waist if you have an hourglass shape so I would size down next time.

This was a fun & flattering dress for almost any occasion! I wore it to Charleston Restaurant Week.
I originally rented this dress for a 4:30 wedding but at the last minute RTR didn't have my size but they sent the back-up anyway plus another for free. The dress runs small which means the backup size ended up fitting and I got to wear them both!
