My guy tweeted "Wife's birthday. After seeing what she looks like tonight, kinda feels like mine!"

Size worn: XS

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Party

KILLER dress! I felt like a million bucks & my husband said it was the hottest I've ever looked! WOOT! Dress is short, but it's loose so it's not too overboard. I didnt bother smoothing down the sequins that were flipped over. It was a lost cause and looked cute regardless. I got an XS & was worried about tight bust (32DD) but there was ample room. It's so fun to wear, you'll put it on and immediately start to shake and wiggle! You cant help it!

This dress is awesome! Perfect for a night out. I do agree that you have to smooth down the sequins, but it's really not that big of a deal.

Unique, Comfortable, Carefree Dress Perfect for a fancy party!

Size worn: M

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Formal Affair

This was my first rental, and it was great! I didn't have to continually adjust, and you can use the sparkles to play tic tack toe. A woman on the street even stopped to tell my boyfriend and I how cute we looked. I wore this dress for a fancy dinner in Chicago and went to a yacht dance afterwards; it was versatile, fun, and a wonderful first renting experience. The dress is short, but I just wore spandex underneath.

I wore this to a rehearsal dinner and it was so stylish and comfy as well.

Size worn: S

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Party

Fit was perfect! Thought I might need a medium b/c of 38B bust, but the fit was just right. I especially liked the length. Since I'm only 5'1" many dresses are just too long for me.

This dress was comfortable, festive, and I got so many compliments with it on!

Size worn: M

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Formal Affair

When I ordered this dress I ordered a small and a medium, because I usually wear a small. however, once I put the small on with my heels the dress looked incredibly short so I ended up going with the medium. The only other con about the dress is that the sequins shift so from a distance it looks like they are missing but this was easily fixed by smoothing them out. A pro about this dress is that it is a very edgy looking dress but looks very nice and put together at the same time. I was so comfortable all night because of the loose fit but still got a ton of compliments on how nice it looked. Overall I absolutely loved this dress and it was perfect for the homecoming dance that I rented it for!

I absolutely loved this dress! GREAT RTR dress for ANY body type!

Size worn: XS

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Party

This dress is super flattering and really comfortable to wear. You don't have to have any special bra and I wasn't fussing with it all night as I typically do with any halfway formal dress. I wore it to a New Years Eve party and got tons of compliments. I got the XS & the Small and to be completely honest, I couldn't tell a whole lot of difference between them, but I ended up wearing the XS just because it looked more gently worn than the small I recieved. I would definitely order this dress again, and recommend it to ANYONE! It has a very forgiving fit. It's not one of those dresses that you feel like you have to suck in all night! Other reviewers have also mentioned it's a bit short, but I didn't find it too short at all (although i'm only 5'4"). I LOVED it!

SPARKLY!

Size worn: XS

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Party

Good fit, very comfortable and easy to dance in. Cut like a shift, as in not fitted in the back (and very easy to put on. I didn't even need the zipper). Dress is a bit 'weighty' from all the sequins, which made it quite warm even for a winter party. Black stockings recommended, though. Got compliments all night. Very sparkly but not overwhelming, as the sequins have this sorta subdued/matte quality to them. Corgi approved!

An amazing dress for an amazing night!

Size worn: S

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Formal Affair

I wore this dress to a semi-formal dance at my boyfriend's fraternity, and it could not have been any more perfect! I definitely stood out in comparison to everyone else, but it was not at all too flashy. The small embellishment on the straps made it unique - which I loved. The length wasn't a huge problem on a body type like mine. Regardless, due to weather conditions I wore a pair of black sheer tights, which reminded me a lot of something you would see on Gossip Girl. I have rented my fair share of RTR dresses, but this one was among the best!

Everyone loved the dress, and with my new haircut, it made everything magical! It was perfect!

Size worn: L

Overall fit: Small

Rented for: Party

Fit was very, very short. I had to go to the large simply for length. It was more like a long shirt rather than a dress. Other than that, the sequins tended to stick together so you had to pull them away from each other so the dress hung nicely. That wasn't much of a problem though. It was very pretty on.

Standout Dress!

Size worn: S

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Formal Affair

Amazing dress, got so many compliments from GUYS all night. It fit perfectly but it was very short. I had to wear spandex shorts underneath. With this dress you get the best of both worlds: comfortable and easy to dance in, but a completely unique and standout dress at the same time!

Fun, eye-catching dress. Short but conservative & easy to match with shoes/purse/jewelry.

Size worn: M

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Formal Affair

Well - this dress might have been the saving grace for my RTR experience. I had originally ordered a different metallic dress but was told less than 24 hours before it was supposed to arrive that it would not be available. I scrambled to look through the website to find a replacement - gave the representative two options (one of which was listed as available and guess what? wasn't) and although, bless her heart for working so quickly and efficiently with me (a very fussy customer at this point) she sent two dresses, this one included, in larger sizes than I would have chosen (I wear a size 6 due to a larger bust and hips, but she sent a Medium in this dress and an 8 in another). I was able to work with the Medium since it is very shift-dress-esque but it was baggy in the back and definitely could have been a size smaller. I got a lot of compliments and people were very memorized by the sequins shifting (literally at one point had a guy trying to etch-a-sketch his initials into the sequins). It was nice being able to wear a fun dress, bag it up and send it back! I'll definitely try out RTR again! Pictures to come - the site was having issues with letting me upload.

I LOVED this dress! I got compliments all night and it was just enough sparkle without overdoing it!! I thought the length was perfect for my height but it may be a little short on girls that are taller.

Fit extremely well. I wore the XS and it was a bit short, but not any shorter than the S. I'm 32DDD and bust fit fine. Wore this for my 40th birthday and felt gorgeous! The colors are much more muted than shown here.

I rented it as a back up and it was a tough contender. It's well made. More sturdy than you'd think. The sequins are great. I'm 5'3" and 115lb and the xs was perfect and it's a good length (sexy short).

Fun dress for Vegas!

Size worn: XS

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Party

Iadore this dress and got even more compliments on this one then the other gorgeous one I rented for my red carpet event. It runs true to size but beware it is short! Perfect for Vegas but just keep that in mind...y have to be careful when bending. I wasn't sure about this dress because of my full bust but you can wear a regular bra with it!

If you have nice legs ladies, I highly recommend! It doesn't show much in the way of cleavage, but thats fine! I wore this to dinner in vegas and then later as eye candy for some gambling fellas in my group. I got a ton of compliments! I didn't wear this out clubbing though because I was worried about ruining the material. But just for the evening activities, it was perfect!

Overall fit: True to Size

This was a cute dress in person. I ordered two for my 40th birthday party and liked the second dress much better. The center sequins were missing in spots, although you could run your hand down the dress and the dress would smooth out.

Short and Sexy

Size worn: L

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Wedding

But, too short for a wedding so I didn't wear it. I assumed that being 5' 3" this would be fine for length but it was still really short and having to walk up stairs in the church to do a reading I didn't feel comfortable potentially being exposed from behind! However...any other event I'd love to wear this and might rent it again!

perfect fit, but too short

Size worn: S

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Other

I wore this dress to my senior homecoming. It was really cute, but too short. I wore 4 1/2 inch heels and have a big butt, so I had to wear spandex underneath. Wouldn't recommend for taller girls! Also, the beading on the sleeves was coming off.

Beautiful dress and perfect for a night out in Vegas. You do have to smooth down the sequins and on the dress I received there were some spots where sequins were missing and the black fabric was showing. Not that big of a deal! Only complaint is that the dress was a little short when I was sitting down.

I rented this dress for my homecoming dance and everyone loved it. Most people were wearing sequin dresses but this one stood out by far. The only downside was that a few of the sequins were missing. I would recommend that you wear the SEQUIN jet fringe fan earrings with it.

Great dress! You do have to smooth down the sequins. I love the silver and gold together. You can do so much with accessories that way. I wore it with nude platform stilettos and shimmery hose. I'm a 36D and my size 6 just fit in the bust.

Perfect party dress! The picture does not do this dress justice but with the right accessories, it is beautiful. Only downfall is if all the sequins are not facing down, it looks like you are missing some.
