The top of this dress was like two sizes too big. The bottom was cute with pockets. My only issue was how tight the waist was. It gave me an extra roll I didn’t know was possible. It was too uncomfortable to even wear. 

Amazing fit.  Amazing quality.  The skirt has a sheen that is subtle but dazzling.  Super classy, flirty and fun!  Got lots of compliments.  Added a thin belt around the middle and it was the perfect touch .

I wore 4 to an dressy engagement party. Very pleased with the fit everywhere except the arm holes, which taper in a bit more than I realized, showing off my least favorite feature right outside my bra cup. I ended up knotting a black dress shirt at the waist as a layer and still think it looked pretty refined. I'm 5'4"/145# so thrilled the 4 fit me. The 6 was unavailable but based on reviews I took a chance and happy with the length and the way it gives me a defined waist.  

I really liked this dress. It fit a little snug at the waist, but I made it work. Would rent again. 

Definitely my favorite RTR dress I've worn! Very flattering, nice material. It was comfortable enough to dance in all night. I saw multiple reviews saying it runs large...but I have a larger chest and broader shoulders so it was very true to size for me. Will 100% be renting again!

This is a no muss no fuss dress. I wore it with a strapless bra, styled it with a wide black belt and simple black heels. The top material is pretty thick, which makes it very forgiving. The skirt is almost bell-shaped, so also very forgiving. No spanx required. That being said, I wouldn't call this a showstopper. It's cute and easy to wear, but I don't think I'd rent it more than once.

This was a great dress for an outdoor wedding. I usually wear a 0 or 2 and the ended up wearing the 0 here. The seam at the waist was slightly tight, but not too much so. The top is stretchy and flattering and also there's POCKETS!! Overall a great dress.

This was only available in a size 10 and I could have worn a 12 more comfortably, but it worked great! 

Very comfortable, fun dress. Wore for a dinner event. 

Wore this for my husband's work party and it was perfect - super flattering, classic, and has pockets - what's not to love?!

It fit everywhere but the bust which I wasn’t expecting considering the size. It worked out anyway. The length was probably not the best for me but I knew that going in and I loved wearing it anyway. 

This dress is very pretty an unfortunately both sizes I ordered both didn't zipper correctly where the two fabrics meet an that was the most frustrating part. It took 4 women to help me zip this dress up past the waist but once it got past the two fabrics it zipped like butter. I ordered the dresses in my size an they did fit just fine an had wiggle room. Just 2 bad zippers for the two sizes I ordered ( 16, 18) 

For real tho...size down. I'm a very TTS 6 and the 6 was so baggy it went straight back in the bag. Re-rented (unlimited subscription) in a 4, fit like a glove. Loved the very sturdy and functional pockets. Appreciated the bra snaps in the straps since it has a narrow neckline. Will rent again. 

I felt great in this dress. It's very easy to wear and super comfortable. Plus it's just super cute. The colors in the skirt stand out nicely in person and have a lovely shimmer. Plus... pockets! I would totally buy this dress and wear it a ton. 

The material is beautiful, but the fit was not flattering on me. I have an Apple shape, the top portion was big and the part around the waist was tight. It was not flattering, so I did not wear it. 

Cute style for work or something to dress up for a weekend. It got a little uncomfortable as the day went on due to where the seam sits on the stomach, doesn't give a lot of space. Also almost couldn't zip past the seam on my own cause the zipper catches so be careful

This dress was so much fun to wear! I loved the pockets and the length, and got compliments all night. It was tough to send back and I wouldn't be surprised if I rent it again.

Was happy wearing this but didn't feel fabulous. I did get one compliment but it was not a wow for me. 

Great for a wedding. Love the pockets. Very comfortable and I got a ton of compliments. I'm 5'10" and it wasn't too short!

This dress was comfortable and very flattering. I am full-figured and appreciated not having to worry about cleavage while still feeling young and festive. The top would best fit a long torso but I adjusted the fit around the waist and if looked fine. 

Great great for work! I dressed it down with a jean jacket but could easily make nicer with a blazer or sweater. Roomy and love the pockets!

I rented this for a bridal shower and loved this dress. I didn't end up wearing it because it was 1 of 2 backup dresses and I thought the other one was better for the occasion. But I will definitely be renting this again! The waist was a little big on me and I think I could have gone down a size. I am 5'10" and it was more than long enough (about to my knees).  I am three and a half months pregnant and not really showing yet but there was room in the stomach area to be comfortable. 

Easy to style. Wore with a black cardigan and flats for work.

I wanted to use this dress for a rehearsal dinner but wound up wearing something I owned instead. I felt the dress looked okay, but did nothing for my body type. I almost felt grumpy in it. I wanted to love it. 

Very comfortable dress. I loved the fit and length. 

The dress hides all of your problem areas. The pattern on the fabric was really fun! Also has pockets! Highly recommend! 

4:00 Seaside Wedding. Comfortable dress. Loved the pockets and the colors.

Attended a Medal of Honor Ceremony at the White House and this dress was perfect! My only wish is that the torso was a bit longer. The zipper is a bit tricky but otherwise I loved it!!

This dress is flattering. 

It's a little tight around the rib cage for me but I have a larger rib cage and bust area and also I sized down like reviews told me to. 

I typically wear a 4 and the 2 fit perfectly 

The top was  a little too roomy and I had to go with the smaller of the two sizes I ordered. It was the right dress for an evening work special event celebration 

I did not rent this dress originally but it was sent since of the sizes I requested in my choice dress was unavailable. I ended up loving this one so much more!  I felt great In the dress and I was comfortable the entire night.  I added a long statement necklace to the black top, which I felt completed the look.  Gotta love a dress with pockets. I would wear this again and again!

Perfect for a summers day at work. Top fits nicely then floaty skirt - not too heavy but great length . Will 100 percent Rent again 

Really nice material, fit was typical of size, knee length, would fit many different body types, would rent again for a classic look 

Pros: comfortable, loved the pockets
Cons: a little tight on the arm holes

Fun dress. Not too heavy of a fabric. The top part is a stretchy material. It bunched a little around the waist for me because that is where I carry my weight, but if you are flatter or have more narrow hips it might now be a problem. Yes, it has pockets!

Great fitting dress. The arm holes gaped a bit but still looked good. 

This dress looked amazing on my sister last month, so I rented it as my backup. It would totally have worked. I ended up wearing my first choice dress. 
This dress would look better with a bigger bust. I felt like there was a little armpit gaping. 
Comfortable. Any bra works.
Has pockets.
