this dress was the Diva all nigth, many complements, was worth it. I fel even  the dress it's not strechy and was a little tigth, like a Queen. it's a statement dress, now it's my favorite of all my rents.
i think this is for petite curvy bodies .

Overall fit was really great, it was a little snug and the fabric didn't have much give so you may have to go up from your typical size. HUGE pro is that it was supportive enough in the top that I didn't have to wear a bra, granted I am not SUPER well endowed in that area but still worthy to note. I would absolutely rent this dress again!

I felt beautiful in this dress. The fabric was gorgeous and felt expensive. It was form-fitting, and where it hit me on my waist was flattering. The top was snug enough to not need a bra. It ran a little small - I am typically a 4-6 and I was definitely a 6, probably could have worn an 8.  Loved the sheer lace on the bottom and absolutely loved the back. Flattering, beautiful dress.

Was very flattering, I normally wear in 8 in most designer dresses, the 8 fit but the 10 was not comfortable. Wore to a garden party white party and fit the vibe perfectly.

Love the back! Was perfect for the day event I had. Couldn't wear a bra with it but it all worked out. 

Runs somewhat small, I'm usually a 2, and the 4 was an effort to zip- but mostly because there's no stretch! It looked great and the back detail was a good balance with the high neck. Loved it and got lots of compliments

Wore this for my dress rehearsal and was perfect for the occasion! The dress fit great except there was a little extra room in the bust. The black band around the waist really helped define my waist as I have an athletic build. And I loved the see through lace at the bottom of the dress!

I loved wearing this dress. There's so much detail & the back is amazing! It's a show stopper! 

Comfortable...shows a little cleavage but was happy I didn't need to wear a bra with it,

Slightly large in the bust, mainly because I couldn't wear a bra with some padding to help! Otherwise, great fit and quality. 

This was my first RTR, and this dress was actually my backup option. After getting past the initial disappointment, when the dress came, I was pleasantly surprised. I got a ton of compliments, and I must say myself, I felt like the dress was a perfect fit! RTR did an excellent job working with me to get an option I was comfortable with, and all in all, it was a great night, great dress, and great overall experience. Thank you RTR!

This was a great variation on the typical white graduation dress. It was a little tight in the stomach, so if you are wider hipped or bloated, I would recommend sizing up. I made it work, but there is no give in the black belt, so it wasn't the most comfortable. The panel in the middle is see through, so you have to wear nubra with this one. It's not too revealing and was still appropriate for celebrating with family. Finally, the back of the dress is gorgeous. I would consider renting this again for another event.

This dress was absolutely gorgeous! It is fitted and tight right under the bust area. I ordered a 6 and a 8 and went with the 6. The 8 was way too big and not fitted at all on me. I got so many compliments and would wear this dress in every single color if it was made in different colors! 

Rented this for a big rock-n-roll party and stood out in the sea of black! The compliments kept rolling in. I'm sad I didn't get a photo of the back of the dress because that's the true MVP. A little snug in places but it's by design because it flatters the figure, would fit a lot of different shapes, and didn't require a bra. That being said, size up for safety! 

I went to the Chicago RTR store knowing only that I wanted to be semi-formal for my senior photos. This dress is one that doesn't look nearly as amazing on the hanger as it does when you try it on. The second I zipped it up in the dressing room, I was in love! That being said, definitely go up one size! The 6 was still a little bit tight on my hips, but big in the chest (I'm not well-endowed whatsoever). Be warned: the back is completely open and the black stripe in the front is a cutout too! Your everyday clip-in-the-front adhesive bra might be visible in this dress too...I wore pasties! Other than that obstacle, this dress was wonderful! I got so many compliments on it. It's exactly what I always look for: classic yet unique. It was also great for my height, the white slip hit my mid-thigh, but the cover on it makes it 100% appropriate/formalizes the dress. I paired this look with simple gold jewelry, nude wedges, and pink but natural looking makeup! (Also, a special shoutout to my RTR stylist Camille!)

Beautiful, sleek dress. Often on RTR, I do not select dresses I like because I am unsure how well they would fit a petite frame. The tailoring of this dress would flatter anyone- a safe, great fit guaranteed.

I loved this dress. I ordered something else that didn't fit and got this as a replacement and thank goodness! I got so many compliments and I felt amazing all day. It was really comfortable to wear, super flattering, and I loved the open back.

I was literally between sizes on this dress.  Went with the 6 as the 4 came with flaw in the white lace.  Very fun dress!  Loved the lace details. The black lace detail in front actually does not have any backing.  No need for bra as headlights would not show through. Would be difficult to wear a bra with the nice open back anyways.  Great dress, would rent again.

This dress stunned everyone. I wore the smaller size as the silhouette is SUCH  a bombshell and looked better when the dress was really fitted to my body. Let it be known: the black strip down the center of the chest is actually mesh like the back is, so you get a very slight (sexy) peek at some side boob. 

I got this dress at the NYC flagship. I think it's so much more stunning in person than online. Had I been ordering online I would have passed it by. It's so classic and clean and slimming. I loved it and felt beautiful! The bottom half is tight but it has a great slimming effect. I have a booty. So happy with this rental I wish it were mine! 

I wore this dress for a couple of derby events and it was a huge success. Got picked twice for a best outfit (having a super fab hat helped too).

This dress was stunning. A true show stopper! I felt so beautiful wearing it at the Kentucky Derby.  I received so many compliments and the Instagram picture was one of the highest liked with so many people commenting to ask who the dress was by. The back was amazing. The details were so incredible and unique. I've rented many dresses from RTR and I was saddest sending this one back. I definitely recommend it! 

Fits like a glove!!! My fiance said it was the most becoming dress he has ever seen on me! I only struggled with the multiple white fabric layering. When I would go to the ladies room, I would loose a layer and it would get stuck in my stomach area because it wasn't sewn together with the other layers. Anyways, just be aware to look for that layer and pull it down before you head out of the house!

This is such a unique and fun summer style! I love the black and white color combination and fabric of this dress. The back is open and has a unique black crisscross design. The design of the fabric doesn't allow for a lot of stretch, however it is a comfortable fit. This dress is fitted at the bust and along the natural waist., so I would recommend sizing up for backup. This would be a great style for a beach wedding with the perfect matching sandals and funky earrings to complete the look!

Fit

Wore this for a work party and I got a ton of compliments. the zipper waa a bit of a challenge hard and it has two layers of liner which proved to be kind of a pain to adjust but overall was really beautiful. 

I rented the 4 and 6. I ended up wearing the 6 only because I had over eaten while on vacation. 

It was a tighter fit than I was expecting. The leg area was also a bit tighter than I expected. I got some positive comments, so that wAs nice. If you're prone to food babies like me... maybe plan on low fitting spanx or another dress. Otherwise, it's a pretty dress! My boobs aren't huge either (32C) and it fit great there, but I'd imagine it'd be a tight fit for someone petite like myself with a larger bust size. 

This dress was perfect for the formal charity event I attended.  Material was light weight and bright and  I loved the details in the crochet work.  I ordered a size 0, back up size 2.  I ended up wearing the 0 because it fit tighter in the chest than the 2 did (I am extremely flat chested).  Did not wear a bra, the back was the real gem of the dress for sure and I received compliments all night from strangers.  My only issue was the black belt accent.  It was rather tight, but not to the point where I couldn't handle it.  Would definitely recommend!!

I felt comfortable walking around in early evening and late at night in this dress. It wasn't too over the top. It was long enough to be warm but light enough for warm weather.
I wore a sticky backless bra under it, but next time would just tape up my 34d's as the dress fit well but top seemed roomy in bust area and sticky bra seemed to drag down my normally perkier bust. 
Still happy. Would rent it again.


This dress is beautiful and has a very flattering back.  I am a 36DD and the top was still loose and gapped at the chest.  Would have worn if it was more fitted up top 


Lovely dress! It was very classy and I received a lot of compliments on it. The only downside for me was that it was a little large around my chest so it didn't look right even with a bra on. It's not the best tailoring but other than that it was great ! 

I wore this to my husbands Chiefs Ball. It is very different with an ashy twist but still classy and formal. The band around the rib cage is a little tight. I didn't have to wear a bra but it was a tad loose on the top. I am a 34 B. Overall it was a cool dress

Dress felt very true to size and was just the perfect mix of modern and 'va-va-voom', yet still appropriate for an engagement party.  The top is a bit roomy, so fits best if you are blessed with natural curves up top, or if you are not (as I am), have a decent stick-on bra with padding. The length was great as well. Only complaint is the little hanger strings kept slipping out of the back, so I recommend perhaps pinning them in place inside.

The 0 fit like a glove. I had two concerns for this dress- first, that the bust would be too loose, which wasn't the case. I went braless since the dress is essentially strapless, but it didn't fit too loose around the chest. I did use some fashion tape to keep the fabric from puckering under my arms. My second concern was the length- I wouldn't have wanted it to be any longer than it was, but with 5 inch heels I was overall happy with the length. But be careful- the dress fits snug around the legs, so stairs can be a bit of an issue. This dress is even more stunning in person; the crochet is beautiful. I felt SO confident and was getting compliments left and right. My favorite RTR dress yet!

I loved this dress! I felt very sophisticated and sexy in it. I normally wear a size two but this dress has no stretch at all! I would size up. It is very flattering and has a beautiful back, just might want to wear a sticky bra. It fit me really well other than gaping a little at the armpits, but that's only because I didn't really fill out the chest area. Highly suggest for summer!

The dress is beautiful and the right mix of classic and excitement! However, the black band was super tight and made it uncomfortable. The next size up was too big everywhere else in the dress. The skirt was also tight around the legs and made moving around a little difficulte. If the black band right under the bust has more stretch it would have been much more comfortable. Otherwise it is a beautiful dress!

Pretty but a little loose in the chest if you are small-busted 

Sized up to the 8 per other renters suggestions and although it zipped, it was snug and I wouldn't have been comfortable wearing for a long period.
