Rococo Valentine's Soiree
Valentine's Day is a day when everyone wants to look flawless. I rented this dress for a date with my fiance and felt gorgeous. I rented it size 2 and was very comfortable in it; I like how the skirt flares from the waist. One thing i noticed, the top part of the dress seems to flatten the chest area. Anyhow, I wore it at work the next day and it was a hit as it is very fashionable. Love it!!

I was able to eat in this dress (thanks to the forgiving cut!) and still receive compliments! double-whammy.
This dress is very forgiving but I think it would fit a person with a smaller bust size (A-B/C). I rented both 0 and 2 but went for the 2 because it gave me more room in the tummy (for food!). This dress is true to size and I imagine would work well with pear shaped bodies. (I wear between a 0-4 usually)

Having RTR sponsor our fashion show, recruit on campus, becoming a part of the on-campus team all came together on the night of Eleganza 2012! I received so many compliments on my dress and a job well done on the show!
I rented this dress for the Eleganza Fashion Show at Harvard and couldn't have felt more comfortable on stage in front of thousands of people! I had no time to put on makeup, but this Tibi dress still left me feeling confident, professional and fashion-forward. The flared skirt really accentuated my waist and hourglass shape and the length was perfect.

Beautiful detail! The dress is more off-white than it appears in photos. There are also small animals in the print, which can make for a fun game. The fabric came to me wrinkled, and I had to steam it. I would recommend ordering to fit your shirt size, since the bottom is loose and forgiving for larger hips.

I went to the Opening Day Horse Races in San Diego and my dress was the talk of our group.
The dress fit wonderfully though some of the tulle underneath was a little itchy. I barely noticed it though. The length was great, not too long or too short (though I thought it would be shorter). I had to wear my strapless bra a little lower so it didn't show in the armholes.

I received MANY compliments on this dress! Really stood out at the Derby this year.
The cut off sleeves come in on the front a little farther than an normal sleeveless dress, made it tricky to wear a bra.

Girls Just Wanna Have Fun
no special occasion, just a special gallery opening i wanted/needed to attend for my line of work and had one of those days of a closet filled with clothes and nothing to wear... soooo instead of dishing out the dough to buy something spontaneous & new but would probably get sick of soon, i resorted to rent the runway for outfit ideas. once again, so happy i did cause girls just wanna have fun (and if i had the funds, i would buy this retail to own. i had so much fun wearing this dress and it showed because i paired it up with my bright red glasses and my red suede louboutins (whole outfit photographed, last photo out of 3). i was literally stopped and complimented on the entire night from people that knew me (saying it was one of their fave outfits on me), and strangers (said i was distracting the artwork of the gallery opening with such a vibrant and ravishing dress). wore the 4 which was slightly loose also due to the fabric (its not stretchy, and the raw silk tends to loosen up after a few hours) BUT i chose to go with a 4 rather than a 2 because i absolutely wanted to be comfortable all night long without seeking a maxi dress kinda thing. BINGO, it worked. so petite girls that feel frumpy some days and rather not suck in all night or constantly checking if any wobbly bits are falling out when they're not supposed to... go with your gut and get a 4 (literally, your gut will thank you for that extra air ;)

This is my absolute favorite dress of all time- it so comfy and gorgeous on!
Runs a little big though- I wish I had ordered the smaller size. It also looks like a thick cotton on the website, but it's actually silk/satin-y so I would not recommend for hot weather! But this dress is GORGEOUS

Being able to have a ball in a flirty but classy dress. A treat to wear!
My only concern with the 2 was the chest area (I ordered a 4 too, to be on the safe side), but there was enough "give" in the material to where it wasn't an issue.

Amazing dress, great cut and style!
I wore this dress to my engagement party, and it was an absolute hit! I received tons of compliments all night long, and everyone thought the dress was simply dynamite. I wore the suggested red earrings from RTR, and wore red patent Cole Haan pumps, which really made the red in the dress pop. I absolutely loved the style, and my only complaint would be that the chest area flattened me a bit more than necessary.

Gorgeous fabric and gorgeous colors - perfect for a holiday party! I thought I might have issues with the top but it fit perfectly and I used a belt so that there wasn't too much volume in the bottom - otherwise it can look like you're bigger than you really are. Beautiful!!

Fun and different!
I rented this dress for a dress rehearsal. I usually go back and forth between a size 4 and 6. I ended up renting the 6 and having some extra room in it, since I didn't get to order the 2nd size. Definitely a great dress for an hourglass figure! I could see myself wearing this dress to a variety of different events. This is a dress that I normally wouldn't have chosen at the store but ended up really liking!

A magical dress, full of whimsy and detail.
This dress is elegant and unique, but what makes it extra special is it's bit of whimsy. A little hidden forest is buried within the print of this dress. If you look closely at the front print, you can see the face of a wolf. There is a little owl hidden near the hem. My favorite part is on the back, which is...a cow. It's not super noticeable, but makes the dress super fun. I loved it.

Great party dress that feels flirty and girly!
The skirt is very structured with a band in the hem that keeps it full and sticking out. The waist is a bit higher than a natural waist and the skirt pleats and goes full from there. The fabric has as bit of a sheen so it can work at formal events. I wore it to a Rehearsal dinner and loved it!

Wore to the 2012 Oaks at Churchill Downs.
The dress is fitting on top, but definitely needed to use fashion tape around the bust area because of the low cut/fit. The bottom is full & falls nicely.

This was my reception dress for my red, white & black wedding. It was a little snug in the bust, perfect in the waist (though I have a small waist), and the skirt had plenty of room to boogie in! It was delivered slightly wrinkled but a little steam smoothed it all out.

I had this shipped right to the hotel and then sent it back from there too so packing and traveling was extra easy!
Everything about this dress was fabulous, I got so many compliments that my brothers even told me they wished they had been wearing nicer suits! Considering I was at the breakers annual christian dinner in Palm Beach, that is a pretty tough crowd to impress. I highly recommend this for any night that you find to feel a little extra special.

I wore this dress for valentine's day and received so many compliments. Before ordering I was worried about the fit (because I'm 5'1 with a small chest (34A)) but the zero fit perfect. Wish it were mine to wear again.

I really liked this dress and think it could be perfect for SO many occasions. The fabric is dressy but the style is cute & casual enough to wear during the day. Skirt has built in wired fabric around bottom so that skirt keeps its shape. My only complaint is the armholes are cut a little low and show more skin than I'd prefer. I felt it made my underarms / upper chest look a little pudgy, so I wore a cardigan around my shoulders.

My gorgeous dress, a french bistro, the SF city lights, best friends and lots of wine!
This dress is adorable. My birthday is December 20th and since I was a kid went out of my way to both embrace the near christmas date, yet still have a special day. This year I chose to go to a french dinner at my favorite local bistro (I'm an SF dweller) with my best girlfriends and requested they all wear black as I would wear red. This dress was perfect for the occasion and I got a million complements!

Engagement Party!
I wore this dress for my Engagement Party. I can't tell you how many compliments I got on it. I normally wear a size 4, but wore the size 6. I would recommend going up a size if you have a larger bust. I am a 36 C, and the 6 fit perfectly. I loved this dress, HUGE success!

I took home first place for BEST dressed!
I ordered the 4 and 2... The 4 fit like a glove, I couldn't zip the 2. I am very small in the bust area but I have a large rib cage and wide shoulders.. I couldn't wear a bra with this dress. I would not recommend it for anyone with a large bust line. I love how it showed off my shoulders! I wore this dress to a company Christmas party that was themed "Mad Men". I paired the dress with cat eye glasses, elbow length gloves, an antique hat box purse and a faux fur short jacket. I took home the first place winnings for best dressed! Thank you RTR!

It fit like a glove!
I felt so comfortable in this dress, it fit my bust perfectly and I could move and dance in it throughout the night. The picture shows it to be pretty white but in reality it came out as an off-white pearl color. It was still beautiful but unexpected so I had to change the shoes I was planning to wear. Otherwise it was great and I loved it!

gorgeous selection for my engagement photos! It fit beautifully- ordered the 0 and 2, went with 0.
The armholes were slightly smaller, but the waist fit perfectly. A woman with a larger bust size may want to order a size up, as the bust was very fitted.

I had a great time at my homecoming dance and got so many compliments!!
The neckline is very flattering and the length was perfect for my height. One problem i had was the hemline was very stiff and didn't lay right after being in the box. I ordered the suggested red earings and wore black shoes. It was a great outfit! Before I ordered I talked to a couple stylists about the fit, this helped me make a descision.

AMAZING!
This dress is absolutely beautiful. The fabric is rich and beautifully detailed. The underlay material really helps the dress to keep its shape. I originally requested a 4 and a 6, but the 4 was damaged and not sent; I wore the 6 and while it fit, there was a little extra room in the chest and waist. I also thought that the exaggerated cut out for the armpits created a unique neckoline. Perfect for a wedding (needed to look more conservative, as I was a reader) or holiday party. Definitely worth renting! Hope the four gets fixed, so that I can rent again!

When the dress was on the way, I showed a picture of it to my seamstress friend who squeeed with delight. :)
My fashion-forward sister picked this one out per my request to help me find "something bold and eye catching, unlike anyone else at the party." I wasn't sure about the fit, so I rented a different dress, and then got this one as my rent-one-get-the-next-for-$25. (If you do that, remember you only get one size. No free backup) How excited was I when this one fit so well? Exceedingly! Although truthfully I would recommend for A and B cups. My C cup runneth over just a little bit. Love the way the skirt poofs out.

I loved this dress. It is really pretty and it will definitely make you stand out. The only problem is that it cannot be worn with a bra that has any kind of straps. The top is just too narrow in the front.

Super classy dress plus pretty Village bar. Perfect birthday.
I rented this to wear to my birthday party in NYC. The red was vibrant and beautiful, perfect for a cold January birthday. I got so many compliments, and my dress even matched the all-red decor of the bar! The only problem I had was as one reviewer mentioned, the pleats on the front of the size 4 were not ironed correctly and one side of the dress was sticking out, I ended up having to pin it. The 6 didn't have the same problem, but it was way too big. Overall, great experience with RTR, all of my friends are now dying to rent.

I usually wear something low key and boring, and would of never bought a dress like this for the attention it would get. I loved the compliments all night and being able to step out of the box.
I ordered this for my fiance's Company Christmas Party. It was perfect for the occasion and I received numerous compliments. I ordered the size 4, and size 6 as my backup. The size 4 fit perfect and I loved how it showed off my petite upper body, but I had to wear the size 6. The Size 4 pleat in the front of the dress was either steamed or dry cleaned incorrectly and the dress stuck straight out in the middle of the pleat. I could not get it to lay down correctly. So I had to wear 2 bras to fill out the size 6 and I covered up with a shrug all night long. I took the shrug off to take a picture, but unfortunately I had to keep it on the rest of the evening because you could see my bra's. All and all it was the best idea. Just wished I could of worn the 4.

LOVED this dress! Did not love that the original size I ordered was not available!
This dress is gorgeous. However I was very disappointed that the size 4 I ordered was not available and I did not find this out until the day before I was flying to Montana for a wedding. I wore the back-up size 6 which was too big. Also, more than half the hem was down so I had to sew it before I could wear it. If not for these issues I would give it a much higher rating. The bust is small by the way so if you are a D or higher order up but know that the waist will then be roomy and not fitted.

Had a blast at a rehearsal dinner and felt retro glamorous all night!
So this dress is really cute, but as many reviewers have mentioned, the size 4 has a really messed up hem. I tried to fix it with safety pins (the fabric tape from my fit kit did NOT work, as the material is too heavy) and was not too successful. That being said, it was fun to wear and I got lots of compliments. The 4 fit perfectly. I accessorized with a red belt to give more shape :-)
