I didn't receive the correct dress size for my best friends wedding and RTR over-nighted 5 dresses

Size worn: 2

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Wedding

This dress is really nice and made well. The fabric and quality is amazing and I loved the way it fit on top and down through the hips. I didn't end up wearing this because the length was too long on me, it went down below my knees and wasn't flattering in that aspect only (I also hadn't ironed it yet fyi). This dress is great for fall and winter because the fabric is a little thicker. This dress is super comfortable too. I'd say if you're 5'7 or taller the length will be better for you.

I felt elegant but not self-conscious or uncomfortable (or overheated in the 100 degree weather). Stood out in the sea of LBDs!

Loved the look of this dress for a black-tie wedding in the heat of a New Jersey July. The dress fit perfectly in my size (10). The condition of the garment itself was very disappointing with faint stains on the front and areas of stress to the fabric at the back seam and back vent. The dress was wearable however and I was determined not to let that disappointment ruin the day. Stylist Janna was TERRIFIC and even managed to have more dresses shipped to arrive on Saturday (the day of the wedding). Because of Janna, I will definitely give RTR another chance to see if my experience was atypical.

Feeling comfortable and classy.

Overall fit: Large

Rented for: Wedding

This is the second time I've rented a Cushnie et Ochs dress, and I couldn't be happier with them. This dress was structured but not stiff. The fabric was so rich and had a gorgeous shine. The length is conservative, but the dress is still sexy. I loved it and felt totally appropriately dressed for a classy outdoor wedding.

This dress is gorgeous and elegant. The fit is true to size. I wore it to a outdoor spring luncheon that was quite conservative. I wore it with a big black and white hat. It's so simple , but cut beautifully and lovely material. Would definitely rent it again.

My favorite rental!

Size worn: 4

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Party

I've rented a fair bit in recent years, and this dress tops my list of favorite rentals. It ran true to size, and fit absolutely perfectly. It has a ton of structure, and the peplums sat exactly where they were intended to, and had the desired effect (I'm always a little worried about peplum styles, as I'm short and curvy). They didn't add bulk at the hips, and instead added very subtle structure. The dress is beautifully made, and the khaki color was the perfect neutral to show off some bold jewelry. I paired it with a chunky turquoise necklace and the color really popped. I'd rent this dress again...and again and again!

Love the peplum accent!

Size worn: 2

Overall fit: Large

This dress is so sophisticated and well made. I am typically a size 0 so I will say that anyone smaller than a 2 should probably stray away from this dress as it will be a little large on you, especially in the hips. The bust area is fitted but the skirt has room, so despite it not having stretch, this is great for women with curvier hips. Such a stylish dress, I would highly recommend it!

Simple, Chic, and Structured

Size worn: 4

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Formal Affair

I rented this event for a semi-black tie affair for my boyfriend's office. The dress was perfect! Conservative enough for the event but different enough that I stood out from the crowd and felt edgy and cool. The fabric looks like a file in person (one of my fav. fabrics). I wore my true size in this dress and don't think I could have gone down a size because there isn't any stretch (as it says in the size & fit tab) and I think going up a size would have made the top too big. I am on the fence between proportional and pear. The dress hit me right below my knees and I wore a killer jewel tone pump to give me a bit of height. The cut of the neckline and size of the peplum were perfect for my proportions. I would love to rent this dress again for a wedding this summer and change it up with a neon accent.

Bit large in the hips

Size worn: 2

Loved this style and the color! Need a bit of a tan to pull it off and it runs slightly in the hips. I usually wear a 4 (34C and 26/27 pants) and the 2 fit the best in this style. I recommend it if you want to feel chic and sophisticated!

love a peplum - or not?!

Size worn: 4

Overall fit: Large

Rented for: Formal Affair

SO loved the way this dress looked in the photo and I'm built like the model. I am 5' 91/2" and a slim 36 - 25 - 36" Usually I'm a size 4 - but since this looked stretchy I also got it in the 2 for back up. Sadly neither worked - here's why: The top fits very fitted and the bottom is enormous! I fit the 4 on top (which was perfect) and the 2 on the bottom (which was still a quite roomy!?) Also the peplum does not show/stick out like in the photo. It lays much flatter and is not as pronounced and cute. I was heartbroken. On the plus side, the length and color were great! If you are EXTREMELY pear shaped - this is your dress!
