I didn't love the way the top really smushed my "girls" down, so moving forward I wouldn't rent a dress with this same shape again, but that's because of my body - not the dress doing anything wrong! 

The dress is adorable!!I Runs a little small in the chest but would definitely rent again! love that the dress had pockets too!!

This dress was perfect for my graduation ceremony. I wore it all day& got tons of compliments. And it had pockets! I wish I could wear it again.

Loved the dress! Wore to a graduation & to celebratory luncheon afterwards. It was perfect for the occasion. Runs small in the chest area & was unable to wear bra but the fabric was such that you couldn't tell. Fabric is slightly heavy & may not be ideal for extremely hot weather. 

I actually wore this dress for an important job interview.  I put a black button down underneath to make it more professional but after the interview I took it off to meet friends for lunch.  I loved the dress and definitely stood out in a group of black suits.  My interviewer knew it was Kate Spade right away and loved it. 

One of my best friends was getting married in the garden of a beautiful restaurant in Dallas. The style, the colors, the fit was perfect. The dress is very comfortable as well. As soon as I left the wedding, I hopped a plane to Houston for a second event. 

Hello! The dress looks very good on you. I was thinking renting it. My bust is 34 and waist 27. I was wondering what your measurements were so that I can compare and know what size I should get. Thank you so much!

It was a great fit and the way the bow hit my waist really accentuated it. 

I loved this dress! It was perfect for the bridal shower I was throwing- cute, comfortable and a good length. The only complaint I have is that it was a little tight around the arms but other than that it fit great and was super comfortable. 

The full skirt is great for pear shapes! 

I was worried that the 6 was going to be too small, but it was perfect.  The dress did need a little bit of ironing just because of the nature of the material. Everything fit just right and was very comfortable to wear all day long.  Wish I could say the same thing about the heels I wore!!  

The dress is much dressier than it looks in pictures.  The fabric is gorgeous!  I loved the pockets, the fit was fabulous, and I received dozens of compliments all day!

this dress was totally true to size.  it's comfortable, and the pockets put the "fun" in "functional."  it's comfortable and i wanted to keep it forever.  alas, i returned it so you can wear it too.  you're welcome.

I wore it from 7am-10pm and still didn't want to take it off. Fits tight around rib cage and bust but it is true to size. 

This dress is wonderfully designed/well tailored. It fit well everywhere and not only was the fabric comfortable, it also doesn't wrinkle!  I had an hour-long drive to the party and I arrived looking like I had just put on the dress. The pleats are flattering and the colors are vibrant and happy. Got plenty of compliments! 

Ran very large in the chest and waist. Heavier fabric, gorgeous, vibrant colors.

The fit was perfect. I have a pretty small waist and it fit my just so. The length was appropriate for the occasion but I am only 5'4 so a bit higher seem would have been ideal. The dress was extraordinarily well made and the even the lining had sweet little details. I will absolutely be buying or renting from Kate Spade in the future.

If you have a small(er) bust, you may want to order down.  Size 10 armholes were too big.

I love just about everything that is Kate Spade. This dress is the perfect combination of class and quirkiness. Very Zooey Deschanel, in fact, I think she wore this in an episode of "New Girl"!
I would recommend to size up one from your usual size, since the waist could be quite narrow.
I say go for it and be prepared to receive tons of compliments!

This 70's throwback dress was AMAZING! I wore it to a wedding rehersal dinner and it was a huge hit, I even considered purchasing it myself!  Kate Spade outdid herself with this super cute dress and for the occasion there could not be a better dress.  Love it!

Before I rented this dress I tried on the same style at a kate spade store so fit was just right - the top is where it's best to size because the skirt is a little more forgiving.  The material is a cotton linen blend so after the number of dry cleanings the dress had had being a rental, it sort of showed the wear but no so  much as to be an issue. It was a great dress for a Sonoma wedding, lots of compliments, couldn't have been happier. Thanks RTR!

This dress makes a fun outfit for a summer party or even work - so I did both!   The bold print is eye catching but flattering, and my husband loved the material (a heavy linen).  When choosing a size, you should be aware the fabric has no stretch and is very fitted at the waist; I tried both the 00 and 0, and while I typically find size 0s have plenty of room and can even wear a 00 at times, the 0 was a snug (but not tight) fit.

Other things to note: I rented this for an Olympic BBQ party I was hosting (though I didn't end up wearing it - mostly because I got distracted and didn't change in time, but got good use out of it anyways.  The dark stripes look black at first glance but may be very dark blue.  The bow at the cinched waist and the A line of the skirt made for a flattering shape.

I got this dress as a free "surprise" dress and could only have one dress in one size free, I stuck with the reviews that said true to size and ordered a 2. It worked out perfectly, the dress zipped up easily, the only little probably area was my chest, but it was totally manageable. I love the colors in this dress, and I felt great in it the whole night!

I rented this dress for a summer wedding and it was great - really comfortable, good material that allows for dancing, etc.  I am 5'6" and it fell at my knees.  Got compliments throughout the night!  

Wore this dress to a summer wedding.  It got so many compliments and stood out from all the other guests.  Wish I could've kept it.  The bow-detail at the midsection thickens your waistline slightly, but the detail and design is just too cute and stylish to miss out on.  Would love to own this dress.

I wore this dress for our couples shower and it was PERFECT for the fiesta theme. I'm 5'2" so it was a bit longer than I would have ever bought, but it looked great. I got so many compliments and it fit like it was custom made for me. 

Loved this dress! Also rented the All Aboard Ship clutch to match... easily the best outfit I have ever worn. I rented it for a May wedding in Massachusetts. It was nautical, fit perfectly and I loved the colors! 

I rented this for a wedding rehearsal and dinner. It was so perfect and comfortable. Nothing tops having pockets either. I received so many compliments I didn't want to return it! 

I'm an avid KSNY lover so I couldn't resist wearing this adorable dress for my college graduation. I felt fantastic in it- I wore it with a red cardigan and peep toe pumps during the ceremony and flat black sandals for the family BBQ that followed-- and it was so versatile. I just wish I would have sized down with my extra order rather than up. It was a teensy bit too loose/long (never wore KS clothing before so I can't supply the best opinion about the sizing), but overall, it worked & I was so sad to send it back! 

I wore this dress to a daytime spring wedding and got loads of compliments! The colors are so bright and fun--perfect for a formal spring or summertime event. The bow detail in front defines your waist without squishing your stomach in, and the overall fit is very comfortable. My only issue with the dress was the top; I have a very small bust and the top was a little boxy on me, even with a padded bra (but nothing a couple of safety pins couldn't fix!) Ladies with larger busts likely won't have that problem. In hindsight, I probably should have rented the size 0 for a bit of a better fit. Still loved wearing this dress!

I wore this dress for Easter and absolutely loved it! It fit perfectly and I received so many compliments! 

Rented this for my husband's 20th high school reunion. The size 0 was a little snug but the 2 fit perfectly. The bow in front was a sweet added detail. Got lots of compliments! This would be a great dress for a bridal shower, daytime wedding or party. Fun dress!
