This dress fits true to size and is very flattering on a petite frame. I am 5'2" and it was the perfect length for a classy but fun dress. The belted waist helps to accent your frame since the dress is not particularly stretchy or tight. I loved it! It was a perfectly special dress for a memorable evening!!

This dress was perfect for a family wedding.

I ordered this dress for a Saturday wedding and received it on Thursday. This was my backup but the other dress didn't fit so luckily I really liked this one. I wore the zero, which is what I normally wear, and it fit really well. I didn't notice any wear and tear on the dress at all, it looked brand new.

The material doesn't have a lot of give, but the structured fit is flattering. I got both the size 6 and 4, and ended up wearing the 4. I felt classy and sexy, which was perfect for a date night out in Vegas!

Overall fit: True to Size

I loved this dress, I wore it to a fall wedding and got tons of compliments on it. My only complaint is that it is a little short but nothing that made me uncomfortable (the high neckline balanced out the shortness) The black waist band is very flattering and the lace overlay is very pretty! I ordered this as my backup dress and ended up wearing it instead. Also- the picture I put up is dark, in person the dress is a much brighter cobalt blue (like in the RTR model picture)

I rented this as my back up dress rental for a weekend in Vegas. I'm 5'5'', 130 lb and the 4 fit perfectly. I felt "blah" about it because it's not really my style but I received compliments left and right! If you're looking for a fun dress, this is it. Other reviews said that the black eyelets got caught on everything but I didn't really experience that.

A great party dress!
Size worn: 0
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Party
I wore this dress for New Year's Eve. I'm 5'11" and it was QUITE short on me, but NYE is one night of the year where that is completely okay. I'd imagine it would look more reasonable on someone who is a more average height. The blue underlay is less bright than it appears on the model; it's more of a grey-blue and is quite pretty. The racerback is adorable. I got compliments all night long! (Also, pay no attention to my dog hanging out in the background of the photo.)

When I need a dress for a party last minute, RTR always comes through!!
Size worn: 0
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Party
I ordered two sizes the 0 and the 2. I wore the 0 because it fit better on me than the 2. The only downside to this dress is IT GETS CAUGHT ON EVERYTHING. I can't tell you how many times the dress caught on to my bag, other people, etc. It's really pretty and I got a lot of complements on it, but it's not the dress to wear when in such close quarters to other people at a party.

This dress is TTS and very comfortable. It might be a little short on someone taller, but it was fine on me (5'3"). The lace webbing on top is gorgeous, but be careful of getting jewelry caught on it. It's super easy to accessorize this dress - go simple or go big!

Unique dress in a sea of black
Size worn: 6
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Formal Affair
With this dress what you see is what you get. It fit extremely true to size, has beautiful detail and a stand out color. I paired it with the black and white Kate spade bag and white blazer and black patent pumps for a show at the Kennedy Center. It was very unique but conservative enough for a DC crowd, falling mid thigh. The 6 and 8 fit pretty similarly, with the 6 just feeling a bit more fitted in the waist. The black band at the midsection adds a nice contour to the plain shape. Appropriate for a variety of events, as it can be dressed down or up depending on the occasion. Absolutely love.

Got lots of compliments on this dress. I wore it to a benefit with Lance Armstrong...so the sporty racer back was great. Fits true to size. I typically wear a 2 and could only get this dress in a size 4. It was definitely a bit loose, but very comfy. I think if I could have gotten the 2 that I would have worn it instead, but I still loved the dress!

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented in a size 4 and 6 and the 4 fit perfectly. Extremely comfortable and easy to wear for the whole day and night and got a lot of compliments on the fit and unique blue/lace combo. Would definitely recommend for a slightly more casual wedding - dressed it up with gold/crystal earrings and bracelets.

A stand-out dress!
Size worn: 8
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Wedding
Loved this dress! I received tons of compliments on this dress throughout the night. The cut was very flattering on my body type. It is really comfortable and easy to move around in. There is not any stretch so I would recommend getting a size up for you second. The only precaution to future renters is if your date is wearing something with larger buttons, they tend to get caught on the lace when you are close or dancing.

Fit TTS for Robert Rodriguez, maybe slightly big if anything. Might be short on taller girls. High quality lace overlay has slight give, but is balanced with structure. Dress arrived in perfect condition. Could dress up with tights for winter. Would rent again. Sorry for blurry phone photo!

this dress was fantastic! i rented this dress for a friend's birthday dinner and surprise party. i ordered a size 0 and a size 2 and was able to fit into the 0 with NO trouble. the dress was NOT tight in any areas and on my short body, the length was just perfect. i would suggest keeping an eye on the lace detail, as it can be at risk for catching on things and tearing. just keep an eye on what you lean against! (apologies for the body-shot, it was an accident, but i think it's a good close-up of the dress.) :)

I wore this dress out to a club for my friend's birthday- it was comfortable and flattering. The 2 fit, but since I was going to clubs I went with the 0 for a slightly tighter and shorter fit. The fabric stretches more than I expected, which was nice since I was worried about it fitting over my hips- I still had plenty of room to breathe, and dance, even in the 0. The lace is gorgeous, better looking in person than in pictures (I just wish I had pictures other than cell phone pictures!).

I ordered this dress for my first rental and I was impressed. The size 6 fit perfect and was very comfortable. However, good thing I wore tights because the dress rides up very high when sitting. I loved the fringe on the bottom.

Perfect for a date or the office, depending on what you pair it with.
Size worn: 0
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Date
I really loved this dress and it was meant to be used for a shoot, but instead I used it to go out to dinner with my bf. It fell mid-thigh and could easily be paired with tights or leggings and a cardigan (or blazer) for the office to get some extra usage out of it. My only complaint is I was expecting the waist to be a lot more fitted. It was comfortable but didn't cinch in as much as I thought it would. (My apologies on the self-taken cell phone pics, but I thought it might offer help for women who are my height/build to see what it looks like).

This dress was sent to me as a backup for one of the dresses I rented because it was no longer available. It was actually pretty awesome! I was sad that neither of my first two picks worked out, but I thought this looked really good. It was a tiny bit longer than I wanted, but I paired with with some 4.5" heels and it looked hot. If you have a smaller bust like me, wear a slightly padded bra!

Pretty dress, but one of the sizes was in pretty rough shape.
Size worn: 4
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Wedding
My only complaint is that the lace on one of the dresses had been very damaged and instead of retiring the dress, it was simply sewn back together (but very obviously). I found that size unwearable so I wore the size down, which just a tiny bit snug on me.

Overall fit: True to Size

I rented this dress for a New Years party that I was hosting. It was very cute, but I'm 5'8" and have a booty which made the dress VERY short. This wouldn't have been a problem if I just had to stand and sit, but as a hostess you're always running around which made the dress a little unfunctional for the evening. (Sorry for not having photos - they all came out blurry).

This was a nice dress, but the black parts are cut out so don't wear anything that can get caught in a hole. The middle was also not as slimming as I had hoped.

Size worn: None
Overall fit: Small

I ended up not being able to wear this and wore the other dress I'd rented instead. I don't have much of a behind but it was enough for this to be skin tight and bunchy around the hips and butt - you know when it's so tight that it kind of swoops in underneath your behind? yea not a flattering look. I hope that description helps! The top part was really cute and slimming though.

I wore this for an art exhibition opening (mine) and it was the perfect combo of chic and elegance.
Size worn: 8
Overall fit: True to Size

I was worried about the lace over the fabric because this type of construction usually changes the fit of a garnet. However, it is expertly constructed so there were no issues with the usual areas this can be a problem zipper, hem etc I thought the chest area was a bit tighter because of the lace overlay but I am busty so I think that's more of a individual fit issue than a concern for everyone. As I said above the dress is a great combo of chic and elegance and how you choose to accessorize will change the look as it's versatile piece.

I loved this dress! I normally wear a size 6, but it was not available, so I got an 8. I am really glad I did, because the 8 ended up fitting perfectly! My chest is on the larger side (34D) and I think it may have been too snug, had I got the 6. It was super-cute and perfect for a night out on the town.

This dress was super cute. I was surprised at how vivid the blue was under the black. I got a lot of complimens on it. It was flattering because it cinched in your waist and flowed nicely over the hips. The only thing is you can't wear a regular bra because the back is narrow.

Love the color and materials of this dress, which really stand out from all the lace dresses out this season. The blue and black combo gives it edge, while the streamlined shape keeps it modern. It's a little short for tall folks like me, but still ok for a wedding (but would also work for more urban events).
