Pop of blue
Wore these for my rehearsal dinner - they really popped against my white dress and were so fun! Wish I could have kept these!

Loved this jumpsuit!
Color and fit were great, length was okay - I ordered the Long and it was perfect with the shoes I wore, but they were not very tall at all.. I'm 5'7'' so even if you're shorter, I'd consider the Long if you are planning on wearing high shoes. Otherwise it was great! It was super comfortable and flattering. The waist is elastic so it's as easy as it can be for bathroom purposes. The tie covers the elastic part and flatters your waist, too. Got lots of compliments, even from strangers. Was my first jumpsuit, but won't be my last!

Absolutey LOVED this dress!
Fit pretty true to size - was form fitting, but had stretch. I have a large bust and the dress was supportive enough to forego a bra, but you could get away with wearing one if you felt more comfortable, because the back doesn't cut overly low. Color is really beautiful - definitely can wear in multiple seasons. I'm 5'7" and the length hit in between my knees and ankles, which was great for me, but something to keep in mind for shorter girls. Got tons of compliments, as always when I wear RTR! I normally don't like to re-wear dresses many times (aka why I love RTR) but I definitely want to rent this gem again! Super flattering cut - really loved it!

Didn't love the way it fit through the hips
This was my backup for a party I hosted - I liked the color, the thick material, and the sleeves, but the fit through the hips was not flattering for my body type. On the model it looks like it pulls in at the waist then A-lines out, but it actually was fitted through the hips then went out just below. I'm curvy so I felt that this cut made my middle look unflattering! I think this dress would look much better on gals that are more narrow/straight through the hips!

Loved this dress, it's definitely underrated!
Fit mostly true to size. I think I would have preferred one size smaller if it had been available - the skirt is cute and poofy but was a tad longer than I would have liked (hence why I would have chosen size smaller if available). The metallic sparkles are great - and the deep v is very sexy (you can't tell how low it goes on the model), yet balanced out by the conservativeness of the rest of the dress. I am large chested and didn't have to wear a bra, but I think the deep v may be tough to fill out for smaller chests (I'm sure fashion tape would help, though!). Wore with black tights and booties. Lots of compliments! Would definitely rent this again!

Not your average LBD!
Definitely order a size up - runs small up top. I got my usual size (2) and a size up (4) based on reviews, and the bottom of my usual size fit PERFECTLY but the top was way too tight.. The bottom of the size up still fit pretty well though, and the top was perfect. It hit just below my knees, which I loved, and thought the length gave the dress a more formal look. Material is very comfortable and form fitting - has a little stretch. Perfect LBD, has a bit of an edge but still classy. Lots of compliments!

LOVED this dress!!
I'd say it fit true to size but the material is stretchy (looks almost silk/chiffon in the model pic, but it is not) so I almost wore the 0R because it looked more flattering through my hips/legs, but the bust was just a tad too much so I went with the 2R - it was perfect! I wore a NuBra but honestly could have gotten away without anything because the dress has a bit of structure in the bust. The colors were great - got a ton of compliments and it photographed really well. Perfect mix of sexy and classy. Length was perfect in my 3.5 inch heels, and the slit in the back is a great touch. Definitely recommend this dress!!!!

BEWARE OF LENGTH - DO NOT RENT THE REGULAR LENGTH IF YOU ARE TALLER THAN 5'3
Was so disappointed! I read the other reviews that the length runs short, but I have never been a "Long" length in any dress or pant I've ever worn so I held out hope that it would fall differently and be okay with flat shoes - I was very wrong! I rented the 2R because the Long wasn't available, and it hit ABOVE my ankles. Was so bad. Granted I'm close to 5'7, but I had my friend try it on who is 5'4 and it was too short for her as well. She could have gotten away with flat shoes, but would have been unwearable with any sort of heel. Aside from the length, the color was pretty but felt a little worn. I ended up loving my back up dress, and think I would have chosen to wear it even if the length in this dress was fine.
