This dress was utterly stunning. I wore this to my sorority formal and definitely stood out against the crowd! I was extremely nervous about ordering my size with this dress. I usually am a size 8 and back up size 6, but I ended up going down two sizes in this dress and I was super relieved that I did! R.E.A.D T.H.E R.E.V.I.E.W.S B.A.S.E.D O.F.F Y.O.U.R M.E.A.S.U.R.E.M.E.N.T.S I would've been stuck in a super baggy dress if I didn't do my research. For any ladies that are small busted and big hipped like me, the slit in the side give room to go down sizes. So if you have a 35" bust and a 40" but like me you'll be okay sizing down! Material was also a little bit stretchy as well!

Great Dress. Delivered in Awful Condition
Pros: super classy and unique (although it is a "plain" dress the ribbing and seams of the dress hit your body perfectly). The length for me was decent. I should've gotten an 8L but the 8R worked (I was unfortunately in a boot because I broke my foot, so that made the length a little awkward, but if you were going to wear flats you'd be okay....still would've chose the 8L though) Cons: SUPER SMALL IN BUST. Can't stress that enough. In the beginning of the ball it was hard to breathe in because the ribbing of the dress did not give what so ever (I'm an A/barely a B and it was TIGHT) but towards the end my body got used to it. This dress was given to me in awful condition. It was just thrown in the tote they delivered it in and I'm positive it had not been washed since the last time someone rented it- I work for BCBG...rent the runway you did not take time to steam nor throughly clean this dress. Luckily since I do work for BCBG my wonderful company was able to help a sister out. If you do rent from RTR make sure you receive it at least 2 days before your event to make sure it has been properly cleaned and steamed. If I got it the night before I would have been SOL, because I would not have time to get it steamed. There were also multiple snags in this dress as well. Lucky for me nobody was photographing me professionally or actually looking closely at my dress- because there were a solid 7-8 different snags in the material. This particular dress should've been either fixed or retired. BUT despite it all I received multiple complements on my dress(:

Love how edgy it was!
For starters, being 5'9" and wearing a short dress is always tricky, but this dress was truly AWESOME. It did tend to ride up a little and i noticed by the end of the night the bottom flared out a little bit, which was a little annoying but not a huge deal. Another little thing is the arms are tight, I have muscular arms and it definitely was tight trying to put on, but i feel like the fabric gave a little by the end of the night. THE FABRIC IS THICK. Almost as thick as a saddle blanket, but I felt that since the dress was so short it all balanced out. Overall, awesome dress to shake up the fashion scene at prom.

Did want to return it!!
I LOVED this dress! It was so different and looked amazing paired with a little belt ! By far my favorite dress rented ! If you have more of a pear shape then the top and back area will be a tad loose, but it didn't effect the overall look! The length hit perfectly! Not very bump friendly, plus if you are planning on wearing spanx make sure they are short so they don't show. The shorts on the dress are pretty short, but it covered my "assets" to a T

I LOVED The Shape !!!
At first i was really skeptical about this dress because i thought it looked very stiff. Once i tried it on though i fell inlove !! I wore this to my Junior Prom and had so much fun ! I looked very classy and complimented my curves at the same time ! I'd like it better with a slit or something more "va-va-voom" but it did a great job !
