The fabric is silky, yet substantial, which felt great. The bust of the dress ran larger than expected; had a size down from 2 been available I would have preferred that. Since the fit was looser up top I needed a way to accentuate my waist so my shape would not be lost-- used a black silk ribbon belt, complementing black wedge sandals. The A-line silhouette of the dress is very flirty and feminine and I honestly felt girly in a great way all evening. Only issue was looseness in the top! Would wear again, but only in a size down!

the fit was flattering, the color vibrant, and it made me feel as if i wasn't so "pear" shaped 

I️ was literally dressed as Belle for my cousins Disney themed sweet sixteen! I️ don't wear yellow often, so RTR was perfect for the occasion... the next night I️ wore it to a wedding! Great fit, very flattering on the waist line, the material was thick, but worked for both the indoor sweet sixteen and outdoor barn wedding! Wonderful color, I️ suggest gray/blue accessories. 

This dress was incredible! The drop waist really cinches your mid-section and it was the perfect choice for a bright sunny day at Keeneland!  Received tons of compliments, and because it was Halloween...just add salt ;)

This dress took my then fiancé, now husbands breathe away. It took mine as well. This dress photographs well but looks fabulous in person. I felt beautiful and enjoyed every minute of our photo shoot. I just want to know when I can purchase this dress.....

I feel this dress ran a bit a bigger than normal. But, the fabric is Great quality! 

The dress was very flattering. I was a little concern with the creases on the dress...they were fluffy and made my waist look bigger when I first put the dress on. After an hour of wearing the dress, it  looked less fluffy. I received tons of compliments!

This dress was perfect for the event I chose it for. My only concern was that the slip under the skirt showed a bit on the sides. I am 5 foot three and the skirt fell  perfectly for a slightly conservative wedding. There was still enough appeal in the top of the dress to make it feel just a little sexy. Overall this was another great rent the runway experience.

A woman came up to me during the reception and she told me that when I walked into the ceremony she whispered to her friends, "wow! Look at that woman in the yellow dress! 

I received many compliments... But above all, my favorite things about this dress are its unique citron color, the texture of the material, the flattering shape for any body type, and mostly how comfortable it is!

It was 85 degrees on a humid summery day and I never felt too hot in this dress.

A++++

Plus, it looks very high end! 

I may even rent this dress again for another occasion. 

I got this dress for my best friend's wedding. The dress came right on time. On inspecting the dress I found that on both the size 2 and 4, the lining peeked out by at least an inch from the skirt. I had to get needle and thread and do a harmless slip stitch all the way around the lining to prevent it from peeking out. It never broke through hugs, dancing, and cake! Then at the end of the night, I cut the thread and voila, it was back to its original form. The bodice is form fitting which only helped to accent the skirt. Overall it was a wonderful dress and I got tons of compliments. Can't wait to rent again!!








I have a large bust (36H) and am petite (5'0") and this dress was perfect for my body type. I had to go up two sizes to accommodate my bust and the dress was still a bit tight on top. I did non-permanent alterations on the straps to take them up about 1.5" to really make it fit well. (The seamstress handstitched the strap, then used a wide basting stitch to make it flat.) In retrospect, I should have bought a bra that had a bit more of a plunge, as I had trouble with my regular nude bra peaking out, especially when I sat. I wore this to the Finding Dory movie premiere in Hollywood and had numerous compliments on the dress. The fabric is really stunning. I wore nude peep toe shoes and gold earrings/bracelet, also from RTR. You can see more photos here: http://www.themomcreative.com/2016/06/finding-dory-world-premiere-all-the-details.html

I loved this dress! I received so many compliments. Everyone wanted  to know "who the lady in Yellow was"! All the women wanted to know where I got this dress from. So I told them RTR! It fit perfectly especially around my bust as I am top heavy. 

The dress is beautiful. I received a ton of comments.
Pros- fits well, color is beautiful, you can wear a regular bra (I can't stand strapless), you will stand out in the crowd
Cons- the lining seems to peek through the bottom of the dress a little bit
Watchout - If you have a larger chest this dress will run true to size. The fit is awesome but it is best to wear some "support" under to look polished

I rented this dress for a swing dance to Pharrell Williams "Happy".  It was perfect. I could have worn and 8 or 10. The yellow has a hint of green.  The skirt has a full lining that makes the bottom flare. Nice, fun dress. At my age, I would not have worn it except for this event. 

The color and fit of this dress was gorgeous.  It is perfect for any spring luncheon or Derby party. I am 5'4 120 lbs and the dress fit perfect.  It was a little snug in the chest but I have a 36 in chest so I always find for a size 2 clothes are tight in that area.  The dress fell just above the knee so very nice for a classy event.  I would highly suggest this rental!!

This was a very fun dress. It looked great in pictures (sorry the one I shared is not the best!) and got tons of compliments. I wore a size 10 and wished I had ordered an 8 as backup b/c it fit a little big around the waist. The flare is serious! I felt like I had a lot of volume in this dress!

This was a last minute back up that was overnighted to me when the dress I originally chose was unavailable (which I wasn't notified about until a couple hours prior to shipping, which is a whole other story). I was relieved that it fit. I am large busted (38FF), so it was slightly snug in that area, but an overall a great look for a formal wedding. I added a metallic belt of my own and was overall content with the results. 

Dress fit very true to size. It was comfortable and flattering. For big-busted girls, you can wear a bra, which I really like. The yellow is a really vibrant color and everyone loved it. 

thanks...your body type is similar to mine so I hope I look as good as you did. Now to find shoes...

Fit was a bit tight on waist but that helped with the overall fit

This was not the original dress I had ordered, so I had reservations when it was delivered in place of the Kate Spade yellow dress I had rented months in advance for a good friends summer wedding. That being said, the dress was a great substitute. I was nervous about the sizing as I usually wear a 6 dress and had sized down in the KS based on recommendations, so they sent a 4 in this as a replacement, surprisingly it was actually a bit loose, I could have worn the 2 as it was roomy in the shoulders and the waist so keep that in mind and maybe size down for a backup size. The nice thing about this dress is you can wear a normal bra, or none at all (its a thick material). The skirt was a bit poofier than I had originally liked, but it photographed well and people stopped me all night to compliment the dress. Overall I would recommend this dress! 

I rented this dress for an evening wedding at a hotel near downtown Houston.  The day it was to be shipped I asked for my back up size to be a size larger instead of a size smaller than I normally wear because reviews about it being tight on busty women scared me as I'm a D cup. When I tried on the dress it was large everywhere; my bust, waist, and you could sometimes see my bra because it was so big. I HATE belting things but I HAD to belt this dress or I would've looked like my waist didn't exist. 
NOW did I like the dress, YES. It's gorgeous! I got lots of compliments and I felt super girly and feminine in it. It wasn't too short or tight or uncomfortable. I was able to dance, eat and drink to my hearts desire with no problems. Also my boyfriend liked it and said I looked pretty. I had no problems with the zippers or hooks on the dress, easy to put on and take off. The fabric is thick and has this somewhat quilted pattern sewn into it, which I didn't expect but was fine. It can also photograph shiny which I'm not a huge fan of, but it's not going to ruin my day or anything. 
I would urge you to order a size down as your back up and have a cute belt on standby. I would rent it again but in a size 8 instead of a 10.

I love the color but added a black and white belt and accessories  to match my hubby's outfit.  It fits true to size. They called us Cinderella and Prince Charming all night and we felt like it! 

Fit was good. Just a little snug around the chest. It really flares out which I loved. I paired it with blue which was the perfect color. 

The dress just felt fun from the moment I tried it on! The  top was a bit tight but I am larger breasted. The waist was too big as I am definitely hourglass with a smaller waist so I decided to add a tiny blue belt to help accentuate my waist. The color is gorgeous and stands out beautifully. I loved the texture of the fabric.  I was very comfortable. Lots of compliments received! I wore this to Seattle Fashion Week's 2015 final night. 

The color is absolutely stunning. if you have a large bust order a size larger.

I rented this dress for a friend's wedding. It was also my birthday so i wanted to wear something that made me feel extra special, and his dress totally delivered! It is somewhat simple in it's design, but the construction, fit, and color are what make it a true standout! The fit was great, a bit snug at the waist, but I could still breathe! The pouf of the skirt gave me an hourglass appearance and helped to camouflage my mummy tummy perfectly! I love the fit and flare of this dress, and that you can wear it with a regular bra! It is so decidedly feminine and made me feel super girly! The eye catching color made it stand out in a sea of more muted tones and complemented my complexion. Everyone noticed the girl in the yellow dress and told me how much they loved it! I chose sparkly, somewhat reserved, yet equally fabulous accessories, Ella Carter Dan earrings and Carroll bracelet, that wouldn't compete with the bold color of the dress. I loved the overall look so much that even after the event was over I continued to wear the it for a couple more hours! I didn't want to take it off! I wish I could keep the dress. It truly made me feel like the belle of the ball (no offense to the bride). Happy birthday to me!

I wore this dress to the opening reception of a work conference, and was receiving compliments on it three days later.  It was lots of fun to dance in and flattering for a curvy figure.  Fit was snug in the bodice with a bit of stretch.

LOVED the dress! Fit well and was very comfy. The only issue I had was the zipper was tough to work with. Got stuck a lot. Even with that said I would highly recommend. Rented it to celebrate my 30th birthday and ended up celebrating my engagement as well! Perfection! 

Flattering fit, no special bra needed BUT the fabric is a bit heavy

This dress fit wonderfully. A little larger in the waist area, but I tend to have a smaller waist. The ruffles really fluff out. It puffed out as if I had on a petticoat. That was an unexpected plus. The dress overall, was wonderful in fit and size. I am busty woman with a small waist and large rear end. I felt this dress complimented my bust area and waist without focusing on my bottom. I loved it!

Shiny yellow jacquard! Very unique and bright style, great for warm weather. The dress runs true to size, but I'd recommend sizing up for backup if you're a 36C cup or higher. The length hit at about the knee on me (5'7"). I really love that you can wear a standard bra with this style! Style it with a summery statement necklace!
