Stylist Review!

Size worn: 2

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Party

My favorite new RTR dress. It's a great pattern which is super flattering for the spring and summer. Material is light and thin without being see-through and still covers problem areas. There is a small piece of neon fabric at the bust which is a great color addition! Would highly recommend for a work event or a cocktail party. Pattern is great!

Unique Print & Easy to Wear

Size worn: 10

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Formal Affair

This dress is a classic sheath and fit true to size. While it is form fitting there was ample room for my "problem areas" on top and in the middle. Those who smaller on top may consider sizing down for their extra size. It worked well for a "cocktail chic" charity event.

Great Dress

Overall fit: True to Size

I was surprised at how well this dress fit me. The sizing was just right. I am a busty girl with a bit of a tummy and this dress accommodated both well. I normally don't go for sheath dresses because of my figure flaws, but the pattern in the dress hit my tummy nicely. This is a very well constructed, high quality dress. I would definitely rent this again!

Just perfect!

Size worn: 6

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Wedding

This was such a win for me. Print is really big now and this is nice one, but the black in the back and the accentuated zipper kept it edgy. The lace is on the print, not a textured layer, so that kept it very modern. I am petite, so it could have been shorter, but with really high heels this was still just fine for a wedding. No problem wearing a bra and the fabric is great for warmer weather but still stiff enough to cover problem areas without showing bulge. Also, the waist line falls a little higher on the dress, so it lays flat over the tummy - a plus for me! I wear 6/8/M, 5'2", 127 pounds, 34B and the six was perfect. I wore minimalist heels as styled on the model.

Edgy but classic

Size worn: 6

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Wedding

Great dress with just the right amount of funk. I wore the dress to an evening spring wedding in NYC and wanted something that was appropriate but still fun. The little bit of neon at the V-neck is cute. My one problem is I have larger hips and the dress kept riding up a bit. I opted for the size 6 to accomodate my hips, but it was something I was aware of all night. You can wear a normal bra- it has strap keepers- and wasn't too revealing up top. I'm taller and it still hit right above the knee, which is often a problem with dresses like this. Overall, I was happy with it and wish it was in my regular rotation!

Not for the full figured

Size worn: None

Overall fit: Small

Rented for: Party

Flattering on the models. Too low cut for a full bust. And the black circle pattern below the waist screamed "look at my tummy"
