Runs large, size down.
Size worn: None
Overall fit: Large
Rented for: Wedding
Ordered this dress for a wedding in Small & Medium. I never received the small (which Im sure would have fit great) because whoever rented it before me did not send it back in time. The Medium was swimming on me. The dress was beautiful though. The color was more vibrant in person than photographed.

Hot, hot, hot!
Size worn: S
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Wedding
I cannot tell you how much I loved this dress. Perfectly flattering, comfortable, and incredibly sexy. My husband exclaimed, "Ohhh, geez! Now THAT is a hot dress" when he walked into the room. Haha. Unfortunately, I ordered the dress in turquoise and due to a warehouse snafu, only the red was available. Suffice it to say, the red was a bit too spicy for a wedding, so I went with another dress that RTR overnighted to me (very quickly and in two sizes, I might add- wonderful customer service). I had no issue with the side of the dress revealing too much as others have mentioned-- you can tighten or loosen the halter as you please. It is a bit short in the front, but not enough to be distasteful. I fairly certain I will be re-ordering this dress for my first anniversary or Valentine's Day.

Attention getting dress!
Size worn: XS
Overall fit: Large
Rented for: Wedding
This dress got huge attention, mostly because of the color but also because it is a vavavoom type of dress. The XS was just small enough. I am not super small(usually a two or four) so a really tiny person might find this a bit big. Also to get the top to fit right I had to really tie it tight which in turn caused the straps to cut into my neck and annoy a bit through out the night. A small price to pay for a wonderful dress. No bra can be worn so I had to wear pasties.

Some hiccups, but a nice dress
Size worn: S
Overall fit: Large
Rented for: Wedding
I ordered this dress in XS and S, but I decided to wear the S as the XS came with makeup stains on the bodice area. I used some fashion tape to make sure the front didn't open up since I had to wear the larger size. Both dresses also didn't come with the belts (as pictured on the model) but I wore it without and it still looked great! It really highlighted my toned shoulders and hung very nicely on my curvy hips! I got so many compliments!

Ran very large
Size worn: XS
Overall fit: Large
Rented for: Formal Affair
I was so excited to receive the dress for a formal dance, but unfortunately I was pretty disappointed. I normally wear range between an XS and a S, and got my first choice of XS. It ran huge through the back and came wrinkled in the mail (not RTR's fault, the fabric seems to naturally wrinkle). I didn't have time/worried about getting it pressed so I had to wear something else, and immediately shipped the dress back.The dress is gorgeous though! I think on a curvier girl, the dress would look great. I would definitely suggest a size down. The RTR customer service rep I talked to was really kind and understanding about the dress. I definitely look forward to renting again in the future and hopefully finding a better fit. Unfortunately this one ended up running a lot bigger than I anticipated.

Not my fave

I have to admit I was a little disappointed by this dress. It looked a lot cheaper than in the picture and wasn't the best fit. I didn't end up wearing it.

Perfect!
Size worn: XS
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Wedding
I wore this dress for a summer wedding. It fit perfectly and I felt comfortable in it all night even though I decided not to wear a bra. The dress came with the belt and fashion tape (which I did use). I was a little worried about how the length would look on me because I'm so short, but with heels it looked great! Definitely wish I owned this dress!

Hot enough for Carmen
Size worn: S
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Other
Wore this dress for a performance on Valentine's Day of Carmen's Habanera. The dress was perfect! Comfy even! I had many comments about the dress after the concert. I looked and felt smoking' hot. If you cannot go braless, you'll need adhesive cups, since the back is very low. You may want some anti-static cling spray as well.

It worked!
Size worn: S
Overall fit: Large
Rented for: Wedding
I really liked this dress but felt a little uncomfortable in the church :/ the front is a little on the short side - I also had to go sans bra but the top is strong enough to hold the girls up. Got the small and it was able to work even though i could have probably fit into the medium too. It was fun, flirty and nice and light for a summer wedding. I'd totally wear again - maybe i'll try the navy for another wedding!

Beautiful dress
Size worn: M
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Other
I wore this to a friend's engagement party and received a lot of compliments. The dress is very romantic and flowy, and very flattering. I typically wear a 4 or 6 depending on the cut of the dress, and the M fit well. I think I could have gone with a Small too, given the flowy-ness of the dress, but with this type of silhouette I think it's best to err on the side of slightly large than too tight. I will say that fashion tape and/or safety pins are a must to keep the front of the dress in place.

Loved it...
Size worn: M
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Wedding
Rented this dress for a summer wedding. I ordered the small and the medium. Unfortunately I had to take off a star, because RTR did not ship my backup size and I had to call and have them send it. They did it..no problem, but certainly a hassle I could have lived without. Anyway, the small was the original size, medium was backup. I ended up wearing the medium because the small seemed just a tad short on my long legs. The one downside with the medium was the back was a little loose and slipped somewhat. I was wearing a bandeau bra underneath and i had to make sure it stayed covered. That wasnt a problem in the small. Overall got a ton of compliments and the color was vibrant and gorgeous! Extremely comfortable and I loved that you could adjust it so many ways to show more cleavage or less, more legs or less. Great dress! Would love to add my photo but can't from my apple product. RTR...please fix that. :-)

Size worn: S
Overall fit: True to Size

The service was great and the packaging and timing of the shipment was incredible. I ordered it for my engagement pictures, but unfortunately, the dress just wasn't right for my body. It was just not doing anything for me. I called and was able to return it right away and since it wasn't worn, I was able to get a credit. The customer service is outstanding and I've already ordered two more times!

Pretty dress!
Size worn: S
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Wedding
I rented the XS and ordered the S as a back-up. Unfortunately, I had to wear the S because there was a snap along the bottom of the XS. Still, it's a very pretty dress, very comfortable and fun to wear. The color is exceptional and the fabric is wonderful.

The dress is lovely and fun. I normally wear a 4 so I expected the Small to fit and it did. The only down side to the rental was sending it back.

Awesome NYE dress!
Size worn: S
Overall fit: Large
Rented for: Wedding
Loved this dress and got a lot of compliments. I usually wear a 0 or 2 and I wore a small in this dress because the XS was sold out - I definitely could've used the XS, but the S looked nice. Had to use double sided tape in the front but overall its a beautiful dress, comfortable and very forgiving!
