Beautiful dress, perfect for my graduation
Size worn: 2
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Formal Affair
I rented this for my graduation from my master's program and I was very happy with my choice. It was my back-up dress, so I had to take my chances with one size (2), and luckily, it fit absolutely perfectly. It is the perfect dress for a formal event, very appropriate length, and a nice neckline that allows you to wear a regular bra. It was also totally comfortable, and didn't show a single wrinkle after sitting for hours. I only wish it hadn't been covered up by my graduation gown all morning...

This dress was prefect for an outdoor evening wedding. I received many compliments & was comfortable
Size worn: 8
Overall fit: Large
Rented for: Wedding
This dress fit perfectly, the color was beautiful and I was comfortable all night. The dress was a little heavy for warmer weather but not unbearable. The dress did fit a little large and I had to wear the smaller size.

Easy, flattering and fun!
Size worn: 4
Overall fit: Large
Rented for: Wedding
i wore this to a friends wedding in April and was very impressed with the dress. The fit was great and I honestly felt so comfortable all night long. I'm typically between a 4 and 6 depending on the designer and I easily fit into the 4. I'm tall and wore about 3 inch heals and the length was perfect. You won't regret getting this dress. It will look great with minimal effort.

Amazing dress for the Go Red for Women events!

Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Party
Perfect dress! I had multiple events for the American Heart Association, and I needed to wear a red dress to all of them. So, rather than buying multiple red dresses, I tried RTR dresses. AMAZING! This dress was absolutely stunning on! I got a ton of compliments! I paired with patent nude heels to complete the look.

Stylist Review!
Size worn: 4
Overall fit: True to Size

This dress was super easy! I loved the red crochet over the nude lining. The way the seaming detail contours your waist is incredibly flattering. This dress did run slightly big so I would size down for backup and it may be a more difficult dress for petite women. It hit just above my knee. Overall, a great dress for a spring event!

Classy and simple.
Size worn: 6
Overall fit: Large

I rented this for my sister who is typically a size 8, 5'2", petite pear shape and 155 lbs. My sister actually fit a size 6 perfectly. This dress was flattering for her figure. I would not rent this dress if your olive or darker due to the nude liner would look kinda weird against your skin tone. I only say this because I'm olive tan person and the nude liner was not flattering color for me.

This dress is beautiful, but it wasn't flattering on me.
Size worn: 4
Overall fit: Large
Rented for: Wedding
I loved it. Really. I'm not sure what it was -- the red is very red, but it was just loose. Perhaps if I had ordered down a size I'd feel differently. I wore it and felt okay. I think this is a dress that's more appropriate for a work event or church event rather than an evening wedding. The best part about it is the ability to wear a regular bra.

Fit well but was see through
Size worn: 4
Overall fit: Large
Rented for: Formal Affair
I rented this as my backup dress and did not wear it. I usually wear a 6 but rented a 4 which fit really well. The reason I didn't wear it is my husband informed me it was see-through. I was wearing white underwear and you could see them. It's a really pretty, fun, flirty dress...Just be careful of your choice in undergarments!

Nice dress, not amazing
Size worn: 6
Overall fit: Large
Rented for: Party
I rented this as my back up for my daughter's confirmation but I loved my original and didn't love this one. My sister ended up wearing it and she's normally an 8-10 and fit the 6 easy. It's a nice dress but I'm 5'9" and it felt longer than I would like it to be when I tried it on. I think it hit me at my knee and I wish it had been a few inches shorter - so a warning for those who aren't as tall as me!

Such a perfect fit!
Size worn: 4
Overall fit: Small
Rented for: Other
I adored this dress. I'm usually betwee a 4 and 6, and the 4 fit perfectly with a padded bra (I think the bra bumped me up to a 34B). The seams in the front of the dress accentuate the curve of your waist, and the A-line of the dress is very flattering on the hip area. The fabric is so interesting and fun, too, with the skin tone (for me_ underlayer and bright red crochet layer on top. I wore this to work with a sweater and then to a campaign watch party sans sweater that evening, and it fit right in both places. Highly recommended!

I wore this dress to a friends bridal shower and it was perfect. The crochet details are very pretty and unique. I thought it did run a little big.

Great engagement party dress
Size worn: 2
Overall fit: Large

I got so many compliments on this dress. The color is really flattering, even though it is winter and I am super pale with blonde hair. I would definitely rent this again. It does run large - I am usually a 4 and the 2 fit perfectly.

The entire experience from ordering to opening the package was fantastic!

Absolutely love this dress. I am petite on top and have wider hips -- this dress did a great job of accentuating the positives and minimizing the negatives. I felt like a million bucks in it especially paired with the Nicole Miller earrings recommended by the RTR stylist! Both were beautiful on and so incredibly comfortable too. I was so impressed with the packaging- all the samples included made me feel like it was Christmas. Both dresses were in impeccable shape! Can't wait to rent again!

gorgeous and elegant
Size worn: 2
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Date
I wore this dress to dinner in NYC to celebrate my 5th wedding anniversary. It was absolutely beautiful and fit perfectly. I liked that I didn't need a special bra as the 'cap sleeves' covered nicely and that it was knee length. I felt like an elegant lady and have no complaints about this dress.
