Comfortable, flattering, unique print!
I am 5'3" and my biggest worry about this dress was it would be too long and look too 'corporate' for New Years Eve - but it was perfect! Just short enough to be 'fun' without showing too much. Wasn't too big on the bust (I am a 34B/32C), but wasn't super tight either. I have hips and a butt, so I chose to size up and wear the 6 instead of the 4, just so I could drink and eat that night, but the 4 fit very similarly (just a smidge snugger on the hips). The pockets are always a plus and the material was super soft (felt like a brushed cotton). It also had a stretch to it, which also added to the comfort level. The sleeves weren't too tight, also, and I have slightly more muscular arms for my size. Overall, a great dress you can wear to a work event, a wedding or a party!

Flirty, flattering & great for short girls who have a pear shape!
I rented this dress for my bridal shower. I'm 5'3", 125 lbs, with a 34B bust. This dress was perfection! I ordered the 4 and the 6, and wore the 4 - fit perfectly. If I had a bigger bust, it may get a little tighter on the top, but I think you'd probably just end up with awesome cleavage - not necessarily busting out (if that makes sense). I read that the sleeves could be a bit tight, but I work out regularly and although the picture may not look it, I do have some solid arms, but I didn't experience any tightness in the arms at all. I was worried the tulle skirt would be a bit much (poofy) for me, but it was perfect to flair out over my hips (very flattering). I got so many compliments, and the length is perfect for shorter girls. I wish they made this in other colors! Pair it with booties like I did for a more casual look, nude shoes for a fancier day look, or some strappy heels for an evening look! Add more jewels for a fancier affair! Very versatile.

This dress is very flattering on anyone who wants to conceal a SLIGHT food/drink baby in the tummy area. It's not going to work a miracle, but it's just enough. I am a typical pear-shape (size 4 in the bust, 6 in the waist and 8/10 in the hip). I rented the 8 and the 10 and the 8 fit perfect, with some room to breathe, as well. I didn't even bother trying the 10. The length was perfect with a standard 2.5-3" heel, no dragging. My fear was that the 8 would be too big in the bust, but it was fine with a little push up in my strapless bra (I wore victorias secret very sexy strapless). Very sleek and elegant. The color was a little drab on my skin... this would be beautiful on a much tanner or african american woman. It's a perfect champagne color with subtle gold flecks. Also, it's VERY stretchy/forgiving (but not cligy, so that's good). Last but not least, if you want a COMFY dress... this is it. I literally felt like I was wearing a cozy nightgown in it.

Wore to my boyfriend's Marine Corps 236th Birthday Ball! Everyone loved this dress and I felt so fancy!
AMAZING. I wore this to a Marine ball and got so many compliments. It's forgiving on the midsection, flattering for tiny bustlines (i'm a smaller 34B), and so elegant! I'm only 5'3" and the regular length was perfect with a 3" standard heel... nothing crazy high. It is a true gold, too. Not bronzey or too yellow. I LOVED this dress. Also, runs true to size exactly. I got the 8 and the 10... the 8 fit, but was a little snug on my ribcage, the 10 gave me some room to breathe and eat something haha. Yes, the sequins can be a bit irritating under the arm, but it's just such a pretty dress, I dealt with it. It wasn't a deal breaker for me.

Being able to know i'm wearing something extremely fashionable for an afforable cost makes RTR indepensible for someone like me - i have champagne taste on beer money :)
This dress is amazing! So comfortable, flattering, and pretty! You can add a belt for some bling, or leave it as is. I honestly usually wear a 10 due to my waist being a little wider, but the stretch in the back of the bodice allowed me to comfortably wear an 8 - i even probably could have pulled off a 6. Overall, a great party dress for many occasions! Would def rent again!
