I wore this dress for an engagement party and loved it! It is super comfortable & very flattering.
Size worn: M
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Party
I usually wear a small but had to order a medium since they were out of my size. It was a little big in the arm holes and I had extra material in the back but overall I still felt fabulous in it. The picture of the dress on RTR shows a peep-hole in the back, the dress I received did not have this cutout; it was still very pretty just a little different than what was pictured on the site. I loved this dress so much; I wouldn’t hesitate to rent it again.

I usually wear a 2 or 4, and the small was a perfect fit. The dress I received was slightly different than the dress pictured. It did not have the small cutout over the lower back, which was a little disappointing. However, as soon as I put it on, I completely forgot about it! I did not want to take it off. The material is very thick, which is great for cooler weather. I intend to rent this again if I don't buy it. I rented this to wear on my birthday for going out to lunch and dinner with family and my boyfriend, and it transitioned well from day to night.

Great Dress!
Size worn: M
Overall fit: Small
Rented for: Wedding
I rented this dress for a wedding in Southern California and it was perfect for the occasion. I rented the small and medium and both fit, but I was just more comfortable in the medium...really could have gone with either. The fabric is heavy weight but was not hot at all. I received so many compliments and a friend even went online to buy the dress while we were at the wedding!

The fit was great. I have a large chest and was worried about the fit but was able to get away without a strapless bra! The length was perfect, just above the knee, and the fabric is thick and very comfortable. The is dress also did not have the keyhole that was pictured and I did miss it a little bit. I also wore booties with this dress instead of pumps because it has an edgier feel to it. All and all I give this dress a solid A!

Swingy, comfortable and fab
Size worn: M
Overall fit: Small
Rented for: Wedding
I rented this dress to wear to a November wedding and the thicker fabric was a bit cozier than other fabric options, which was nice (I wouldn't recommend wearing this in warm weather). I wore the Medium, which was pretty tight around my bust (I'm a 34DD), but fit well elsewhere. The length hit about mid-thigh. The print was super cute and it was really comfortable to wear all night, while also wrangling my two year-old. My biggest issue was that the straps are a pretty extreme racer-style, making even my racerback bra would start to peak out. If I rented again, I'd take the L, just to give my boobies more room. ;-)

The picture doesn't show it, but the dress is actually more of a dark gray with a little shimmery pattern. The material is pretty forgiving, and looked great with sparkly heels for NYE.

Size worn: M
Overall fit: True to Size

I rented this dress to attend a friends January wedding. I ordered a Medium and a Large. the ONLY difference between the two was the length. The fabric is nice and hick & stretchy, will fit you like a glove.
The color is different in person than on the photo. it's definitely more of a grey than black. Still goes well with a black heel. I did the "Mystery Bling", and they sent me the necklace shown in the model, super fun and a great statement piece.
It arrived on time, and is so easy to return. Loved the whole process, Cant wait to RTR again!

So perfect for a pear. Fit like a glove, no need for a bra. Also was very flattering the way it flared out on the hips. I want to own this dress. My sister is a size 0/2 and rented the small and said it looked terrible and was too big. So be careful if you're tiny.

Two thumbs up for this fun, unique party dress!
Size worn: M
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Party
Overall, the dress was perfect and was exactly what I was looking for. The material was form-fitting, but comfortable -- and the pattern was amazing. For pear shaped girls, this dress and the flowy skirt is ideal. The only slight downside was that the dress was a little short; however, I am 5'9" so most things are! The dress was a hit and highly recommended for your next part or event!

Comfortable, functional & flattering!
Size worn: XS
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Date
I absolutely love the fabric of this dress! It was thick enough that I felt secure, yet it wasn't too tight or hot. Since I'm petite (5' 2"), a lot of dresses tend to be a little too long for me; however, this dress hit a few inches above the knee, which I felt was appropriate for a fancy dinner date with my boyfriend. I also felt that it definitely flattered my shape. I'm a little wider in the hips, but the silhouette of this dress made me love my curves! I ended up pairing it with nude pumps and a blazer that I had in my closet that just happened to match perfectly. The only downfall of this dress is that it is not completely bra friendly - plan on going braless or wearing a strapless one.

Snug, comfortable, and cute
Size worn: S
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Party
I wore this for my birthday party. It's very snug, yet comfy. I wouldn't recommend anyone with a large bust to wear this dress as it would be difficult to breathe in/not a good cut for that body type. The fabric is thick/expensive-feeling and more sparkly than in the photos. Very cute, flirty and appropriate for any season.

Me in this dress was "gift enough"!
Size worn: M
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Date
I wore this for my honey's birthday date. He loved it and I loved it too. At first I wanted it to be black but the shiny gray was actually really pretty. The dress is a little long in the torso for us shorties. I belted the dress and cuffed the dress underneath it to make it a perfect fit. I couldn't make my convertible bra work with this dress so I had to be on strap duty. It didn't bother me that it showed but it may bother others. Due to the strap and the long torso, I give 4 stars. Oh and the dress was short on me, which is a good thing! Sorry I didn't get any frontal shots. It was all about him that night.

This dress is super cute and comfy. I don't think it's dressy enough to wear to a formal affair (fabric isn't right for that) but great for a party. The color is great! The grey is a little shimmery but not so much that it bothered me.
Overall would rent again.

I rented this dress for a bachelorette party. I was pleasantly surprised by how comfortable the stretchy fabric was. The small and the medium fit almost exactly the same, even length. The only con was that the dress didn't flare as much or look as pleated as it does on the model. Overall, I was pleased with my rental, especially how comfortable it was!

Holds the girls in very well. I recommend the sticker petals for coverage. Caution to the short girls: the torso runs long, so the dress tended to roll over itself on my waist. The length was perfect (I don't like super short). The fabric is great for winter and for concealing some problem spots. Pear girls: you want this dress.

I normally wear and 6 and the M fit great. The material is heavier than I was expecting, but because of this, it does stay in place well (no wind moving my dress all around). The colors were a bit different than I expected, darker grey and coral, but it was very pretty.

This dress hit me in all the right places. I loved the fit of it and the material. I wore it for my boyfriend's 30th birthday party and got lots of compliments on it! It was February when I got this dress, so I paired it with a leather jacket and it looked great! The material is pretty thick, however, so I actually didn't really need my jacket to stay warm. I would definitely rent this again, and I actually have friends who have rented it after seeing me wear it!

Super fun, sexy, and completely classy!
Size worn: XS
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Wedding
I wasnt sure if the colors and fabric would work well for an afternoon springtime wedding but it was so cute that I had to try it anyway. The reviews are spot on, the fit is great, the material is thick enough that it kept me warm in the breezy weather, yet the darker colors still worked for the wedding.
The black is definitely more of a dark gray which I think makes the dress even more fun. I paired it with a black platform heels but switched into black Tory flats for the reception so I could dance the night away and it totally worked with flats too. I HIGHLY recommend this little number. Oh, also I tend to be one of the people dresses run short on but this was a great length, not too long but definitely not as short as a lot of the dresses out now. Oh, you need either a strapless or convertible bra with this one. Thick enough fabric that if you are comfortable enough you can wear sans bra (not me though).

I felt like I had legs for days!
Size worn: M
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Wedding
This dress was a nice change from the ordinary styles I'm used to. It was snug fit, but I loved it. Don't wear this if you're really body conscious because it hugs your tummy and the cut can make you look big in the upper body because of the sporty neckline cut (I'm a 36C and I wouldn't wear this if any bigger. I'd also not wear this if I had no bust either, honestly). It's short and shows off your legs and the skater style is super flirty and fun- great dancing dress! A big negative that all my girlfriends and I noticed was the seam across the midsection to separate the skirt and top. It isn't the most attractive. All in all, I'd recommend this, but be careful. A bunch of us tried this on to see the difference in fit and, man, it looks so different on each person, for better or worse.

A perfect rehearsal dinner dress... Definitely form fitting and a little heavier of a material than some of the other fit n' flare Parker dresses I've worn. The grey is slightly metallic which adds a fun sparkle to the dress. I imagine it would not be great for busty women as the cut of the dress makes it difficult to wear a bra. Easy to accessorize - I paired with a crystal necklace and earrings and black L.K. Bennet pumps.

This dress was a pretty standard fit and flare. It was fitted at the top and flared out at the bottom. The dress is actually red and charcoal (which looks like black in photos.) The charcoal in the dress has some metallic to it, which makes it very fun. The dress is kind of a thicker sweater material which I was surprised about but it was ok since the event I went to was in November.

Overall fit: True to Size

Love, love, loved this dress. The fabric felt a bit heavy at first but ended up hugging my curves perfectly. I wore it with a cardigan, tights, and boots, which ended up looking very put together. Since it is winter, I had to add all of that for warmth, but I can also wear the dress without anything but heels and it will be a perfect dress for a spring/summer event. very versatile & such a fun print! That is why I immediately went searching for it online to buy, but was only able to find it on eBay. Totally worth it!
