Pefect for a Derby Party!
Size worn: 2
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Party
I am 5'9, 130 and ordered a 2 & 4, the 2 fit better. This dress is almost a burnt yellow, not as light as the picture suggests. It was super flattering and cute, it's a thicker fabric so hides any flaws. I wore it to a derby party and received a ton of compliments. Very cute- perfect for a derby event, and I actually think it would be very cute as a bridesmaid dress!

Great dress for a wedding and "high tea"
Size worn: 2
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Wedding
This is a great dress! I wore it twice in one weekend, once to a wedding and once to a tea party. The color is amazing, even prettier than in the picture. Go a size up if you have boobs. It was a little tricky zipping the 2 up around my chest.

I felt beautiful in this dress!
Size worn: 2
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Wedding
The dress fit perfectly, true to size. The construction is top notch, it never gathered in the wrong place, was flattering in the mid-section. The fabric looks like it might need ironing, but it does not- the lines in the fabric are meant to be there. I used some steam to take out the wrinkles (from being packed in a suitcase). I got tons of compliments in this dress and it helped make me feel beautiful. After wearing a great dress and getting tagged in it on Facebook, I'm glad to "retire" the dress. RTR is perfect for special occasions! Thank you RTR!!

I wore this to an outside wedding and it was perfect. Couldn't be happier with the rtr experience. Everyone loved the dress, it was a hit! I usually wear an 8 but the fabric wasn't forgiving enough around the hips so I went up a size for comfort.

Sunny Summer Wedding
Size worn: 8
Overall fit: Small
Rented for: Wedding
This a beautiful dress in a gorgeous color. I felt that it ran a bit small though, but perhaps I'm just not used to wearing extremely form-fitting dresses. I'm normally a 6, but wore the 8. Got a lot of compliments regardless.

The fit is pretty true to size and the fabric is really pretty. The rouching on the side is very flattering, and I love the neckline. I felt so amazing in this dress, and I hardly met anyone who did not comment on what a unique dress it was. If you want to stand out in a crowd, this dress will definitely do it for you.

Having the bride tell me that this dress was exactly what she imagined her bridesmaids wearing, but could not find.
Size worn: 6
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Wedding
I wore this dress for a wedding last fall and it was such a huge hit! It was comfortable, forgiving, and SO fun. The color is vibrant but more of a golden-yellow color. The fabric was pretty stretchy so towards the end of the night it was a little looser than when I first put it on, but I definitely still feel that it ran close to true to size. Loved the RTR service so much, I've been anxiously waiting another opportunity to rent!

Rented this dress for a friend’s garden wedding and loved it! It is a very pretty yellow color. It is quite tight-fitting but stretchy so I wore a size up. I was a little worried about the hem being too long as that often happens with me and short dresses, but it hit just above the knee.

Renting from RTR is always an easy and enjoyable experience! I received many compliments on my dress that night!
Size worn: 0
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Wedding
I absolutely loved this dress. I thought that the fit of the dress reflected other reviews and was generally true to size (although often a "true to size" 0 is too big on me so this could mean the dress runs slightly small.) The color is much more beautiful in person, more of a golden yellow than a lemon yellow. The bow is lovely and not too big. I did have some trouble with the lining twisting and riding up and if I owned the dress I definitely would have had it hemmed an inch or two but neither of those things were even close to being a deal breaker! I felt great in the dress and got a ton of compliments! I would definitely recommend renting this for your next event!

The dress!
Size worn: 10
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Wedding
This dress was phenomenal. I wore it to an evening outdoor wedding and it was a hit. The quality of the dress is excellent, and you would never know this since the fabric is very thick, but the fabric is actually stretchy so it is not restrictive when you sit or dance. The way the fabric gathers over the tummy area is very flattering. I ordered an 8 and a 10. I have thighs so I went with the 10 but could have worn the 8 had I realized sooner that the fabric stretches. If you have blonde hair like I do, you will look like sunshine in this dress. Some of the other reviews said the dress is darker than pictured...it is in person but the pictures I took made it look a beautiful vibrant yellow. Highly recommend! Loved my first RTR experience!

I wore this dress to a wedding in June. I received so many compliments on this fabulous dress!! I usually wear a 0-2, but by reading reviews I ordered a 2 and 4. This dress does run small, so size up for your back-up dress. The 4 fit me to a T!

Perfect For A Summer Wedding
Size worn: 6
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Wedding
I wore this dress for a June wedding and it was perfect! The color is a bright, taxi-cab yellow (not pale). The ruching at the waist is very strategic--it lets you eat and drink without fear! The shoulder bow makes this dress look modern and dramatic. I dressed it up with a bright red lip and red nail polish.

I wore this to my first bridal shower. The 4 fit better but there was a stain on the seam. The 6 just made the length longer, which was fine. It photographed beautifully and paired really nice with turquoise earrings. A very fun dress, i would recommend it for any daytime even!

Obsessed with the one shoulder look last year so I rented this for a party. Got lots of compliments on the color and styling (I wore it with a silver oxydized necklace and cuff). Fit around the bust and midsection really well, but was a little snug in the hips. Wear it!

I wore this dress to a wedding and it was a winner. The dress had good stretch to accommodate my generous hips :-). It was, however, a wee bit shorter than I intended to go so I kept having to pull it down from time to time. Nevertheless, I think it is a great shade of gold/yellow and a solid rental!

I rented this for my engagement party with the intention of standing out, and I DID! I could tell immediately when I zipped it up that I was wearing designer clothing. Forgiving fabric, but still rather snug. I am a 2 or 4 waist up and typically a 6 or 8 in the butt and legs (unpropotional I know). But somehow the 6 in this dress fit magically. I m tall and was just the right length, hit two or so inches above my knees. I was very happy with my experience and I will be a returning customer!

This dress is so sexy! I have dark hair and had a nice tan at the time, but it was so flattering. I had the brightest dress on at a wedding, and I felt so confident in it! I ordered the 8 because I have big hips and bum, and it was a little snug but still fit nicely. It would have been more comfortable in 10 (which is my normal size), and the lining seemed to want to ride up quite often. Other than that, it's gorgeous-fabric, color, and style. If you're more curvy, stick to your normal size, and it will absolutely get attention.

I loved this dress! I wore it to a summer wedding in Chicago. Like others said, the skirt portion is quite tight, so I ended up wearing the back-up Size 8 instead of the Size 6 I had ordered. The fabric is stretchy and very forgiving. And - the color is a little darker than in the picture. I received SO many compliments and LOVED wearing this dress.

This dress is a bit darker than pictured, but a gorgeous color, and a very flattering cut. It's a heavy, textured silk with gathers across the center. It was very flattering and forgiving, and so much fun to wear! I wore it to an evening wedding, paired with The Secret Garden cuff, and got so many compliments!
