I got so many compliments on this dress! It fit amazingly and is different enough to where no one else was wearing anything like it. I loved this dress and wish I could have bought it! The only problem was when i lifted my arms or sat down, it was a little short but it wasn't that big of a deal for me!

Bachelorette Party
Size worn: 4
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Party
Love the dress for a night out in Atlanta for a bachelorette party. I got compliments all night on in. The only thing is that the dress is extremely short which stinks for dancing and sitting but I still loved it! The dress material is very nice and comfortable but is very thick and probably should be worn in the colder months.

This dress was so great! I wore it on a night out in Vegas, and got so many compliments. It was very comfortable but definitely short. The size 6 fit me perfectly, so I'll say it's true to size.

The fit was perfect but....
Size worn: 6
Overall fit: Small
Rented for: Party
The fit was perfect but as everyone else pointed out it was VERY short. I wore a size up but it didn't help. It was impossible to sit in it. Walking and dancing is fine thou. Also the dress look very worn off. I could tell it was worn before me many-many times.

Loved this dress!
Size worn: 8
Overall fit: Small
Rented for: Wedding
The dress ran true to reviews for me. I rented the 6 and 8 and both fit great. I ended up wearing the 8 just because it was a little longer and I was attending a wedding. Length was my biggest concern but it worked out fine. If I were any taller, I am not sure I would have worn it to a wedding. Just like reviews have said, the inside material is a thick jersey and may not be ideal for summer events. Perfect for a September evening though for me. Great first rental and would definitely rent it again.

I wore this to my friend's bachelorette party and it was the perfect material for just-before-fall weather as it was thicker. My only issue was that it was so short that I was pretty self conscious all night.

I rented this dress for a bachelorette party. I felt comfortable but it does run short. I kept pulling it down throughout night but I loved it anyways!!! The fabric and style were very forgiving. I would rent again in a heartbeat! I tried on size 0 and 2 and ended up wearing size 0.

This dress is adorable, fits true to size and is really comfortable. I loved that the inside of the dress was a sweatshirt type material. The only con is.. This dress is SO short. I honestly wasn't comfortable wearing it out for a bachelorette party. ..if your event requires you to sit down, renter beware! I would definitely size up for the added length.

This dress is very short (which was why I wanted it - I like shorter dresses) but beware if you're much taller than 5'3". It is a very thick material and I liked that I felt "sucked in" without needing any Spanx. I would definitely have worn this again if I owned it. It felt very flattering on a post-baby/awkward weight loss body.

Excuse the selfie! Wore this to a ball in NOLA. Very pleased. It was an LBD but was also unique.
Size worn: 2

A little tight around armholes but loose in stomach area. That could just be my body type though. I don't think it was noticeable to others. I was satisfied because usually dresses are difficult for me to find because I am very short but also have big hips. Overall I would rent this dress again. It also comes in blue!

I wore this on a dinner cruise and it can get a little chilly at night towards the end of September in Pittsburgh, but the sweatshirt type material of this dress kept me nice and warm on the boat! I don't highly recommend wearing this in the middle of the summer unless you plan on being indoors. The length of this dress was perfect for my height but it does seem like it would be a little short for you taller ladies!

This dress hugged all my curves and made me feel amazing all night. I received several compliments. It's a very unique style, which made it stand out. The lining is like sweatshirt material, which made it a bit warm, but cozy and the thicker fabric worked a bit like spanx - smoothing out any bumps from the pizza I scarfed pre-party. :) It's SHORT so I couldn't bend over - but I was moving around all night and didn't notice. Great dress.

Very cute dress for a bachelorette party! Got a lot of complements.
Size worn: 0
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Party
I wore this dress to a rather low key bachelorette party and it was great for the occasion! A few of the girls asked where I got it, which is always flattering.
I really loved the pattern! I thought it might be too much, but it was actually really understated. It looked dressy without trying, and it really didn't need any accessories.
The fabric was thick enough to keep me warm (I live in Seattle), but didn't look bulky. It was comfortable enough that I didn't mind wearing it all night. Despite the fact that the dress lacked any stretch I was able to eat (a LOT), climb in and out of a vehicle, and dance in comfort.
The only real con was that I couldn't really raise my arms as mentioned in some other reviews. The caps leaves have no give, so just don't plan on raising your arms past your shoulders.

If you want to be comfortable all night, this is not the dress for you. Forget sitting all together. This is more of a dancing-looking good in pictures dress. The 4 fit but was too short, so I opted for the 6, which had a little more length and move ability. The 4 had shoulder pads in it, but the 6 did not, though there wasn't a huge difference. Overall this was a great dress and I would rent again, but probably in the blue color. :)

This dress was very comfortable and great to wear out to dinner & drinks. The material was a little thicker so it'd be good in the early fall. I loved the cap sleeves and the pattern. Was a nice change up from the standard LBD. It was a little short when I was sitting for dinner but if you plan on standing and dancing the whole night, rent it!

This dress was incredibly comfortable and flattering!
Size worn: 6
Overall fit: Small
Rented for: Party
This cap-sleeved dress was very flattering and was not your average shift dress. The dress gave me a shape and was very soft (it really does feel like like a soft, light sweatshirt). I opted to wear the size 6 because of the length of the dress (it added an inch or two compared to the size 4). Therefore, I'd recommend ordering a size up and coupling this dress with black stockings. All in all, I recommend this dress for a special occasion or date night!

This was my first time using RTR and it will not be my last. I wish I could own this dress forever! I was worried it would be super short based on the reviews but I thought that it was fine, even for a wedding. The material was nice and thick and the size 4 fit me perfectly. It was a really comfortable dress to wear all night long and I got tons of compliments on it. I might even rent the blue one for a friends birthday weekend next month!

I liked the texture of the dress and thickness, which helped me keep warm for the fall wedding I attended. It required just simple accessories and worked well with flats. However, it was even shorter than I expected so I ended up wearing a black dress under it to extend at least an inch. It was so short you could see the darker part of the shaper part of my pantyhose when I sat! The larger size was not longer and was just too big so went with my real dress size. I wore "Assets" tights by Sara Blakely (Spanx brand at Target). Nobody really complemented the dress but my friend thought I lost weight.

So... I let fall season get the better of me and gained a few lb. I was going to a charity function and I wanted to get a dress that would hide the extra baggage and look great! I had a friend rent this dress in blue and she highly recommended it. I ordered a 6 and an 8 (I am usually a 6) and the 8 fit perfectly. The 6 was a tad too short. This dress was simple yet fun. So if you're looking for something that will look good for all body types, this is the dress!

Great dress! Not for pear shapes, but never claimed to be
Size worn: 4
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Party
I had been dying to rent this dress for months and finally had the perfect opportunity. I am sort of a petite pear--0 on the top, 4 on the bottom--so I went with a 2 and a 4 assuming I'd end up in the 2. However, as other reviews mention, this dress has NO STRETCH whatsoever and is on the short side, so I went with the 4. It fit nice and snug on the bottom but was a little loose on top, which I expected. I danced in it all night with no problems! I would definitely rent this dress again. Just beware--as my title suggests, this is probably better for hourglass or straight and narrow shapes because if you are curvier on the top or bottom like I am, one end of the dress will definitely fit differently than the other.
