Amazing fit and great spring colors!

Size worn: 2

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Wedding

This is probably my favorite dress out of all the dresses I have ever rented from RTR. The fit was absolutely perfect on me, and the colors were really vibrant. The tightest part of this dress was the chest...it was fine, but I can see how it could get a little tight for someone more well endowed than myself. The length was great for a wedding, but it could have been an inch or two shorter for my taste. The fabric was a great weight for summer (thin cotton, but not see through), but it did tend to wring a bit from sitting. Overall it was the best dress I have ever rented, and I would definitely recommend it for a wedding/graduation/day event!

Words cannot describe how much I loved this dress. I didn't want to send it back!

Size worn: 8

Overall fit: Small

Rented for: Vacation

I wore this dress all over Dallas, and felt like a million bucks. It was sexy but sophisticated, and so much fun to rent. I would buy it if I could! Runs pretty true to size, but I would order up a size for backup - especially if you have hips.

I rented for a work-related evening reception in July.

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented for: Party

Amazing colors and print - I got tons of compliments. Because it was for work, I wore the larger size. But I could also wear the size down for a more body-hugging fit.

This is a great dress for summer since it is made out of a thin material. It does wrinkle easily so probably not best in super humid weather!

The dress was thinner than I thought the material would be. It's a thin cotton. I live in Texas, and this wasn't too great for the heat, but it fits nicely. Not too tight, not too loose. A little longer than I expected, almost to my knees. Doesn't fit as tightly as shown in the photo when browsing. Overall a nice dress, I got compliments from most of my friends.

Everyone loved my dress!

This dress was incredible! Although it was a little long on me, it hit around my knee, I will definitely be renting it again! The pattern is stunning in person, and I got compliments all day! I am typically a 2, and the 4 fit well in this dress. I would suggest sizing up as a backup!

Not as good in real life

Size worn: 2

I am always very satisfied with RTR dresses but this Vera Wang dress is of very basic cotton and does not look "classy" in real life as it does on the website. I would not recommend it for a TV show or a meeting. More like a summery dress.

I loved this dress. I am petite and was afraid the length wouldn't work on my body type but because the cut is so fantastic and is complimented by the print, it was a perfect fit. I added a belt to cinch the waist a bit further. Felt very tailored and chic.

Fit perfectly. The colors were great. Perfect for an outside wedding. I am 5'4, but curvy, and it was perfect for my body.

I got many compliments on this dress. It was very comfortable and the material was light. Easy to dance and have fun in and different enough to stand out

This dress looks even better in real life than in the model pictures. Perfect fit, true to size, and a dress that would fit most body types well. LOVED IT!
