Really cute, but definitely size UP!
I got tons of compliments on this dress, and I was ultimately happy with it! I did heed everyone’s warnings about sizing up, and I’m really glad I did. I’m normally an 8/10, but I rented 14 for this event. It has ZERO stretch up top. I ended up wearing a strapless bra, but honestly it was snug enough I probably could have gone without. Fun look, cute dress. No stretch…size up!

So comfortable & I got a ton of compliments!
Loved this dress so much! It was forgiving in the right places, and felt just formal enough for a wedding. Photographed beautifully. I had many people comment on how much they loved it. I’m fairly muscular and I have thick hips/thighs- this was a perfect fit. I ended up with the 12 bc the 10 was unavailable. It was a bit roomier in the top than I would have liked, but still fit well enough to wear. 10/10, would rent again.

Runs very small - no stretch
I was really looking forward to this dress! I ordered the same size I've ordered for all my RTR dresses (all of which have fit) - but this one barely zipped... it didn't have any stretch - and if I had tried to sit down I probably would have ripped it in half. Adorable dress - runs small.

This dress is instant personality! Minimal accessories necessary for this number. Loved it.
I'm a curvy girl - so the thick, stretchy material was incredibly flattering/forgiving. It's modest, but the cut-outs give it edge. I got a ton of compliments on it - my only complaint is that it's a little tricky to climb stairs in (no slit up the back) - but that's really it. I paired it with tights and boots because it was a cool night. Depending on the designer, I wear an 8 or 10... the Large was a perfect fit, and the Medium would have been too small. I would definitely rent this dress again - if you're on the fence: go for it! Fun dress!
