Hot!
I wish the dress had some stretch, but other than that it was perfect. I wore it to a ceremony where my husband received an award and I got so many compliments. It photographed beautifully.

Thick and beautiful
This is so thick that I didn't need to wear a bra or shapewear, which was awesome. Beautiful length, beautiful fabric. Loved it!

I wore this to my own wedding!
We had a very intimate wedding with just immediate family in attendance. We just bought our first home so I didn’t even want to spend hundreds on a dress, let alone thousands. I always use RTR for other events so I figured I’d try renting my wedding dress. The dress was a little tight in my stomach/rib cage area but we made it work. It photographed beautifully.

Gorgeous!
LOVE LOVE this dress. I think I’ve worn 5 different Badgley Mischka sequin dresses in different colors/styles and they are always a hit. You need to wear some Spanx/a faja underneath this because it is super form fitting, but it’s stretchy enough that you can dance and move around with no problem. The back is gorgeous and I love the way the sleeves look. Random strangers were coming up to me to tell me how much they loved the dress.

Very pretty!
Wore this for an event that took place on Valentine’s Day. I have rented Marchessa Notte dresses from RTR before and this fit as expected. The 6 would have been wearable, but the nude-colored liner under the dress felt tight and bunched up so I wore the 8 (gotta love back-up sizes!). I got lots of compliments and felt very pretty in this dress.

Great dress!
This dress will always have a special spot in my heart because my boyfriend proposed at the New Years Eve party I wore it to! It is very tight and hugs your curves-very elastic so you don't need to wear shapewear underneath. I'm 5'3' and it was relatively short on me. Also, you can't tell from my photo but it shows a LOT of cleavage.

Gorgeous dress
Wore this dress for a Christmas party and it was absolutely perfect. I usually wear a size 6/8 but I needed a 4 in this dress for it to hug my curves. I have very pale skin and red hair and the green was just gorgeous. I'm 5'3" and the 4R was perfect with 4.5 inch heels.

Loved this - color is more like a rose gold
I rented this dress for Thanksgiving. I ordered an 8 and a 6. The six zipped up but felt like it would be too tight to wear all day. The 8 was perfect. Everyone commented on how gorgeous the dress was. However, in person, the color is more of a rose gold than pale gold.

Perfect!
I wore this for my boyfriend's graduation from fire academy and it was perfect. I ordered an 8 and a 10 after reading other reviews. The 8 had a little extra room in it but it fit fine and I got so many compliments!
