Fabulous and dramatic
This dress was so fun to wear! The high low was perfect even for my shorter 5'1 height. The colors are a beautiful collage with a bit of sparkly threads as well. The best was whenever you walked the back flowed like you should have been walking down a runway! The neckline is very low, and the short part of the skirt is very short. (I didn't mind either one given my shorter height and smaller bust, but if you don't like that kind of detail, you may not like it.)

Dramatic and high quality
Got this as a backup for a wedding but did not end up wearing it due the length. I am only 5'1 so I assumed I was taking a risk by trying it. I was correct, even with heels I still was dragging this on the ground. The fabric is heavy, and the dress is almost a bit compressive (which was fine). Loved the high slit, the single long sleeve, and the ruching. I ended up using the dress for family holiday photos where the length wouldn't matter much.

Beautiful Dress
This was actually my backup dress, but I loved it way more than my first choice. The fabric is light and flowy, the fit is very comfortable, the length was perfect even with my 5'1 height. (I usually have issues with most long dresses usually being... well too long). I felt great in this dress, and it was perfect for an outdoor rustic style wedding I attended. Love the asymmetrical look this dress had, giving it a bit of a sexy vibe without being too much. Thanks RTR!

Pretty colors
Cute dress, it was my first choice for a wedding, but I liked my backup dress better. So, I wore this to the rehearsal party instead. Fit is cute, the fabric is heavier than it looks. The sleeve is also really big, a bit too much fabric for my smaller frame in my opinion. Still received compliments on the dress, loved the colors just not the heavier and excessive fabric.

Classic and beautiful!
This dress for me ran a bit small, no give especially in the waist area. I sized up one and it fit better. I rented 2 styles and went with the other for the wedding. But I liked this dress too so the husband and I booked a fancy dinner for the other part of the weekend and I wore this dress for that occasion instead. It has a very classic look and I loved the pop of gold at the bottom. This was a great first experience with RTR, and I already have my second order in even though its a few months away.

So fun and so many compliments!
I am not entirely sure how Italian sizing runs compared to US. The fit of the 42 was perfect, if anything to top was still a bit large but it could have just been the way the folds in the fabric laid too. There is also not much give in the waist. This dress is extremely short, I wore a pair of spandex fitness shorts underneath and it made me feel better. I am pretty short at about 5'1 so I do like the look of short dresses on my height. The side fabric detail was so fun and different. I got so many compliments from strangers at the hotel to guests at the wedding. The bride even mentioned to me that people were talking about it! Such a fun rental, and a great first experience with RTR. Already booked my next rental for another wedding I have this year.
