A perfect button up shirt dress
Super pretty sure burst stitching in gold makes gives this dress a little extra flair. It was a great fit and fun to wear. Expect to spend some time with the steamer though!

This silhouette is made for a pear shape but runs large. I suggest sizing down. Perfect for a summer picnic or casual outdoor wedding. Can dress up with heels or down with sneakers.

So flattering and great for work!
This dress fit like a dream. It pulled ever so slightly over my DD chest but not so much that there was a gap showing my bra. I could have also easily fixed it completely with tape or a pin. I loved the 50s vibe with the fullness of the skirt, and the fabric was so light it still was perfect for a hot day. Looked great for work and would be a sweet weekend dress too.

A classic.
This piece is a classic. It's lined and feels quality. I can wear a 0 or 2 depending on the brand. There was no 0 available so I went with a 2. It worked but I think a 0 would have too since there was plenty of room. For reference, I wear a 34 B cup 25.5 waist and 34 hip. There was a ton of room for my hips and waist but because of the tie, it worked. Not too dressy and not too casual. Just right. I like to look a bit more polished so I ironed it and the belt. This is a must if you want the dress to look like it costs as much as it does!

Perfect dress for a casual day out!
I rented this to wear on a bachelorette wine weekend. It is so comfortable and easy to wear, I got so many compliments! I am smaller in the bust but have broad shoulders and there wasn't a lot of added room in the top of the dress. It also wrinkles a bit but not bad. Definitely will rent again!

Perfect for an hourglass figure!
I am usually between a 12 and 14 and am SO glad I got the 12! It fit perfectly at my natural waist and bust--and the circle skirt is forgiving for hips :) I love the gold star details and the waist tie (which is stitched on!). The fabric is a structured cotton and wasn't too blowy, but since it's a circle skirt, it might make you pull a Marilyn in really windy conditions. Got compliments from coworkers and will likely rent again! Really perfect for spring or summer.

Classic and comfortable
I really enjoyed this dress and ended up wearing it twice, once casually and once to work. This was super comfortable, and while it ran a bit large, I don't think it impacted the look at all. Paired with yellow shoes and bag for work and (as pictured) my Kate Spade Keds for a visit with family. I'd rent again!

The cut and fit on this is great. It's lined and the skirt is full and swishy. The threading on it is gold, but subtle. It was really windy when I wore it and I had a Marylin Monroe moment...so be careful in the wind or wear shorts ;-)

Fun casual dress
I wanted to love this dress...the fabric is darling...a seersucker type stripe w: tiny embroidered gold stars. Unfortunately the dress did not come w: a belt. My backup size did but it was sewn on so I couldn't use it. I was traveling so I didn't have a belt to pull from my closet. I loved the length...being a tall person, I enjoyed the knee length.

Perfectly lovely dress - a light blue pinstripe with little gold stars all over. My only problem is I wish I had rented it in June-August, rather than September, as it just felt too summery for the changing season.

Summery dress with a lining
Dress looks a lot more professional and polished in person. Picture does not do it justice. It did not GAP around my boobs which is a huge plus and I'm always weary about wearing anything button down. Lining was a nice touch. A lot of fabric but didn't feel heavy. Only giving 4 stars because SO. MANY. BUTTONS.

The most compliments!
I wore this dress to work and then to happy hour, and it dress elicited the most compliments I've ever received on a RTR piece! I loved the golden stars on the pattern and could see this dress being flattering on most. I also found it TTS. There is a ton of fabric in the bottom half of the dress, which wrinkles easily, and I spent a lot of time steaming it to make it look presentable. For that reason I didn't find this dress as effortless as I'd hope, but I still felt oh so confident and cute in it!

Classy but not overdone
This dress is adorable but I does fit me a little weird. I def could have gone down a size. I’ve had a breast reduction and I’m not real sure i could have buttoned this with my old size (36G). I’m a 36C now. My only complaint is how much room is cut for your arms. That may be resolved in a smaller, better fitting size, but the arm holes were way too big and you can see my bra. I typically would wear a 14 and feel like that would have been a better fit. If you do have a larger chest, however, you may want to consider sizing up.

Comfortable and classy
I'm between sizes and I ordered up because sometimes shirt dresses are cut slim through the hips. However, this dress has a very full skirt, so the 6 was a little too large. I still wore it and it was very comfortable, but it felt like an excess of fabric. Also, I've never worn a shirtdress with a lining before - feels fabulous! Nice fabric, pattern, and overall dress design. Perfect for work or a casual summer outing.

Such a cute dress, I rented 2 sizes too big so couldn't wear
I gave this 4 Stars, for me that's what it would be in a size that fit. If I were a straight body type it would be 5 stars! Ok... stick with me here 😀 First, this dress missed the ironing station at RTR. Wrinkled everywhere. But I knew I wouldn’t wear it so... it’s a size 20 and I could probably size down to a 16 (my normal top size but wasn’t sure with a dress...). Picture shows it as designer intended. Top part pulled straight. This makes the waist hit my upper hips instead of waist: would a smaller size make it hit my natural waist?? I think this dress adds weight to curvy women. But for size 8 and down, it would be darling (women who could want some volume added on bottom).

This dress is super cute. I felt very feminine in it. The fit was good and outside of some irritation by the stomach area it was comfortable. The material has cute gold details and I think one rubs in that spot. I had a woman stop me and asked me to screenshot a copy of the dress so she can buy it!

Hard to find a good size
This dress is so cute! I ordered it in a 16 and unfortunately it wouldn't button around my chest. It's a flowy dress, so when i sized up, it was just so so big. I had to wear a sweater with it because it was so big in the chest in the next size up. Still cute, and you can't really tell in the pic how large it was, but if you have a normal size chest, you should be fine!

Cute, but not for large chests
This dress was so cute, but I couldn't get it to button over my chest. Word of warning, I'm a DD/DDD, and this was definitely not meant for larger chested women. So cute though. The bottom fit perfectly and was not see through and definitely flowy.

Made Me Look Frumpy
I liked the style of this dress from the other reviews posted. However, there was just too much material for me, and I did not feel it was very flattering. I started with a size 8 and had to exchange for a 6. I definitely could have gone with at least a 4 as the top was still very big, and there was room in the waist. I would size down at least one size. If I had gone with a 4, it might have been better as there would not have been so much material gathered at the waist. I wore it once to work and immediate returned.

Nautical themed bridal shower perfection.
Wore this to my nautical themed bridal shower and it worked well. The only issues were that it was too large on top and wrinkles easily. I spent 20+ minutes in the morning ironing it to perfection and it was wrinkled halfway through the day. Otherwise, it is very flattering and the bottom has great shape.
