This dress was perfect for a Kentucky Derby party! I'm actually considering purchasing this dress.
Size worn: 6

This dress fit perfectly. I ordered the size 8 just in case it ran small but the 6 was perfect. I loved the black piping on the edge of the dress. It made it easy to accessorize with my favorite black pumps! Perfect dress overall. I was initially worried that the cotton might wrinkle from sitting in the car, but it was not a problem and the dress looked perfect all evening.

I wore this for my brother's wedding. It was so beautiful, I received so many compliments! The cut is very classy, but the back zip, color, and piping make it young and sassy. I paired it w a skinny silver belt and black lace pumps. It was a thick material, and felt so luxurious. Fitted on top, then flared, so no spanx necessary..ahhh what a relief! I loved it, and didn't want to take it off...so feminine and cute!

I rented this dress as a back up dress for a formal, evening event. The pink is stunning, but more day time than night..fabulous, but very VERY bright! It fit perfectly on my athletic, almost boyish frame and seemed to give me curves in all the right places! I love the length, it's incredibly lady like and hit right above my knee. The black piping is impeccable and the detail is pure Kate Spade. This is a perfect day time dress.. and perhaps even evening for the younger crowd. The material is very much a thick, polished cotton, full lined and very lady like. Fun, bright, classy and modern. I love this dress and can think of a thousand places you could wear it and be the belle of the ball! This dress is such a classic style, a real treasure... you won't be disappointed.

Perfect vibrant dress for a Spring wedding!
Size worn: 4
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Wedding
I loved this dress and got so many compliments throughout the night!! When it arrived, it was much brighter than it appeared in the picture- not quite neon but a very vibrant pink. This dress has pockets which were definitely a fun touch- and so useful! The dress was perfect for dancing and super comfortable!

Beautiful, bright, fun dress! I got compliments all night long!
Size worn: 4
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Party
I rented this Kate Spade dress for my bridal shower and it was pretty perfect! I loved the bright color and touches of black, which made it very easy to accessorize. The pink is super bright, almost a neon. Also, it has pockets which is so fun! I rented a 4 and 6 and ended up wearing the 4, which fit perfectly. It is a little on the longer size. I am 5'3" and it hit right about above my knees. I think on someone taller it would be fine. The only thing I would add is that the skirt portion wrinkles pretty easily. It didn't look bad in person but in photos I can definitely see where it was wrinkled from sitting. This is a perfect party dress. Fun, bright, classy and modern. I loved this dress!

I LOVE RTR but I had to return this dress because it just didn't fit by body right.
Size worn: None

This was my first time returning a RTR dress. The dress fit, but it wasn't flattering on me. It was big in the arms and abdomen area. It was super easy to get this dress returned.

More like a smock.
Size worn: None
Overall fit: Large
Rented for: Party
I did not enjoy this dress. My actual size was not available on my event dates so I selected -1 and +1 size from my true size. The smaller size actually fit but everything about this was bad for my body type. The material was much thicker and matte than I expected. I was really excited about a bright color for spring but unless you are a size 2...you will look like a walking bottle of pepto bismol. Idid not wear this look, I ended up wearing my black backup dress for my event which I did love. I will not be renting this look again nor recommending it to anyone.

Fit me perfectly, I have long legs and I was worried about the length but it fit great! The material is kind of heavy so be careful doing anything that might make you sweat, but it was great for a evening wedding!

Many compliments at the event!

I rented three dresses, and this option turned out to be the best dress for me. It is a great polished cotton, nice weight, not too light or too heavy and the quality was really good. Loved the pockets! They are well hidden, do not stick out at the hip area. The fit was great for a 'fit and flare' style, with plenty of room in the bust area, a nipped-in waist and an easy flare over the hips without looking too tight or too baggy. The length was perfect for my height, just at the knees. I wore dove gray shoes for the wedding, and open-toe nude pumps for the reception. Loved it and received so many compliments at the wedding!

I would definitely buy this dress, if given the option. It is versatile, people raved about the color and style. I wore it to a cocktail attire gala and thought it was perfect. Fabric is stretchy, but the waist is a little short, so I would not size down. This is retro with a modern twist.

Not a dress for petite ladies!
Size worn: None
Overall fit: Large

Even the 0 seemed to be too big and hit in the wrong places- may work better for larger busts. Dress also seemed really long on me (5 2') - hit at knees or below.

Such a fun dress but not good fit for large body types.
Size worn: 10
Overall fit: Large
Rented for: Party
This dress is just fun and cheerful. The hot pink color (even brighter than what it appears to be on the site!) will immediately put a smile on your face. I loved this dress, but it unfortunately didn't look right with my body type. Hopefully after losing all this winter weight, I'll be able to rent it again and look fabulous in it for spring!

I did not wear this dress but tried it on. I loved the fit, cut, fabric but the color was a bit glaring for me. I just wish the color was bit more subdued.

Loved this dress! It's a super cute and fun dress, great for a party with it's hot pink hue. A fab fit for someone with bigger hips like me. I paired it with a skinny black belt and black pumps.

Great dress! The color is a bright neon pink - and a real show stopper!
Size worn: 8
Overall fit: Large
Rented for: Party
Loved the pockets and the black trim. Definitely ran a bit big. There were no reviews so I asked the sizing specialist and she recommended getting a size bigger. I normally wear 8 - so I got the 8 and a 10. Really needed a six. Arm holes were a little gaping and the overall fit was too roomy. Belted it with a thick black belt and wore black tights, and it was fine. Regardless of it being a little big - the dress was beautiful and comfortable. The material has a nice sheen that you don't see in the pics. Nice heavy fabric too. length was longer on me - which I liked. Lots of compliments! This was my first RTR rental - the $50 coupon sold me. Glad I finally tried it (after years of browsing and thinking about renting). I will definitely rent again!

Beautiful dress but it runs large. Could not wear but was able to wear the Kate Spade Hole in One dress instead.
