GORGEOUS!
Size worn: 0
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Wedding
I found this dress after trying it on at Nordies and gasping at the pricetag. I was hesitant to get it from RTR before I tried it on at Nordies, since it looks a bit short on the model, but it was the perfect length and was definitely wedding-appropriate! This shade of blue is absolutely beautiful and the lace overlay is intricate and rich looking. The stretch of the lace and lining underneath is very flattering (I didn't even need Spanx!) and would be good for a variety of figures. I have very slim shoulders, so would have gone up a size, but had to stay with the 0 because the cutout back gaped a bit on the 2 - the cutout is simply gorgeous! You can't go wrong with this dress - I have never gotten so many compliments! I wish that I could have bought it and kept it :)

I have big hips, so the dress had a tendency to ride up a bit. But otherwise, it was perfect. It looks amazing in photos and in person. The lace detail, the rouching, the back cut out...all so stunning! I love this dress.

This dress was gorgeous! It is VERY fitting, but flattering at the same time. I may have felt more comfortable in a large, but the medium fit. I received tons of compliments and felt very sexy. Loved it! I have a big butt, so I had to keep pulling it down, but still great!

Flattering and feminine dress in a beautiful color. Felt like a million bucks.
Size worn: M
Overall fit: Small
Rented for: Wedding
I absolutely loved this dress. I felt like a million bucks and go so many compliments on it. At first, I wasn't sure if it was maybe too short for a wedding, but it ended up being totally fine and all of the nice things people said made me feel wonderful. It does run a tad small, and it's definitely a form fitting dress, but that's what makes it flattering. Very comfortable to wear as it's a stretchy material. The color is darker than what I expected, but still really beautiful. Kind of a blue-purple. Incredibly feminine and flattering on most body types. I would highly recommend. I know this comes in a coral color and a black color. I might just rent this dress again in a different color. Paired it w/ Nicole Miller southern plantation earrings.

I was initially worried about the random strings hanging off of the dress (obviously there's going to be some noticeable wear when renting something that many others have worn), but they were hardly noticeable when I actually tried it on. The material is stretchy so I was able to comfortably fit in a size medium, though I would suggest wearing a girdle of some sort if you have any area problems in the middle! Overall, I loved the dress and I received so many compliments at graduation. I would definitely recommend this dress to almost any body shape!

Dress was classy and elegant, and it ran true to the picture's color. Only complaint was that I thought it ran large in size. I wore a 2 (my usual size) and it was a little baggy. Otherwise, would recommend!

LLOVEDD IT! I felt so beautiful and confident. Felt like a model! Was really impressed with RTR specifically because I got the dress right after the hurricane and they contacted me and told me they were a little behind but would still get the dress to me on time. And they did! HUGE PROPS. The material was wonderful and it was very comfortable. The only minus was the dress was a bit too short, it rode up my legs a lot... but I don't care. It was TOTALLY worth it.

Beautiful color- Pic does not do it justice. Lots of compliments. Fit great! Easy to wear spanx under if you wanted to. It is not like other dresses where you can see the spanx line. I ended up wearing my hair down, but I wish I wore it up because the lace work is beautiful!

Perfect color and just the right amount of skin for a young person to show off at a wedding.Had great stretch to it. The small fit like a glove. I would definitely rent it again. Also loved that it came with the original tags. I'm not sure how often that happens, but it was nice to know I was the 1st person to wear it. I also was able to wear a regular bra without showing any straps...nothing special needed!

Size worn: M
Overall fit: Small
Rented for: Wedding
This dress is absolutely my FAVORITE RTR dress I've ever rented. Fit like a dream, so comfortable and I got so much attention and many compliments. My only issue is that I'm 115 lbs and 5'2'' with a 34D cup size. The Small was just too tight on the chest but fit everywhere else perfectly. I had to go with the medium because of my boobs (and I wanted to wear a push up bra), and that made it a an inch longer and a little less snug. However, in the end, I was more comfortable dancing and hanging out all night wearing the Medium.

I absolutely loved this dress! So much so that I almost didn't want to return it. I wore it to a friend's wedding and received compliments all night long. I was hesitant to order it at first because I was skeptical of the color and fit. When I received the dress both size and color were exactly what I was hoping for. I am typically a size 4-6 or S-M depending on the article of clothing and brand. I went with the size small and felt it was the perfect fit. It wasn't too tight where I felt stuffed into it and I was able to move around and dance all night. I would definitely recommend renting this dress. It is beautiful in person and is an extremely reasonable price.

The dress looked very sexy but classy!! Loved it. Make sure to get a size bigger it runs very very tight! I usually wear a small but needed to wear the medium and it was a little snug. The Large would have probably been ideal. The straps are a little big. I pulled down the dress to make it longer so that the straps fit tight.

I absolutely loved this dress! I rented it for a law school formal and it was perfect. I rented a medium and a large, but ended up wearing the large. Both fit, but the medium was rather short and I wore spanx and didn't want them to hang out of the bottom of my dress so I went with the large. This dress is form-fitting, but still very comfortable.

This dress is perfect for a cocktail event. I went to my boyfriend's parents 30th anniversary. It's a beautiful dress that is sexy yet conservative to wear to a family party. I had to wear the P size which would normally be too short but was not for the event. The back was a little loose in the S, but the P fit perfectly!

Flattering and COMFORTABLE dress!
Size worn: P
Overall fit: Small
Rented for: Wedding
This dress far exceeded my expectations. I usually wear black dresses, so I was excited to try a different color for once. This was my first time renting from RTR and I selected a size Petite and Small. Although the petite was a big snugger than the small, the straps were the perfect length for me. I'd have preferred the slightly looser fit of the small, but the straps were too long on my shorter frame and bunched up in the back. Now I get why petite sizes are made! :) The dress was flattering and very comfortable. It was form-fitting, yet stretched to fit like a glove. I was worried it would be too tight or revealing for a wedding, but it was perfect. I got plenty of compliments all night and my fiancé still tells me how great the dress looked. :) Highly recommended!

I ended up going with the petite rather than the small. Although the petite fit quite snuggly, and the small may have been a little more comfortable, the length for the petite was much better. Having short legs, I didn't want the dress to go all the way to my knees, which the small did. The straps were also a little long on the small. I think the petite worked out perfectly! For girls with slightly bigger busts, you might feel a little on display all night.

It was my last sorority formal, so I needed to wear an amazing dress!! Classy, but sexy.
Size worn: S
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Formal Affair
I chose the smaller size because I like my dresses to show off my curves. The top definitely was flattering and made me look very sexy, but it was still classy. Because of the fit, I didn't need to wear a bra which was perfect because I didn't want it to show through the lace (even if it was beige). Because I have a bigger but, I was worried the small wouldn't fit, but I felt great and felt like Kim K! This dress definitely fit me way differently than the model, but I think it's an amazing dress for girls with curves.

The dress itself was beautiful, very comfortable, and flattering. The only drawback was, as this dress is a popular choice (no surprise there!), it was slightly faded and worn. I only noticed becuase the backup size was much more vibrant, but I don't think anyone else would've noticed. RTR service was great, and a life-saver!

Size worn: S
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Formal Affair
I wore the dress to a formal for graduate school. I loved the color, it was very flattering. Overall the dress fit well. It was true to size and stretchy, which I loved. It was very comfortable and easy to dance in. The only negatives I had about the dress were it went slightly low, you can see the very top of my bra in some of the picture (though it was very minor and I doubt anyone else noticed) and the dress circles in to the stomach area which I think was not very flattering in pictures though in real life it looked good. Those are the only reasons it is not 3 stars.
