Boxy fit which i like, awesome pattern. I wore with a navy blazer and booties and got like 15 compliments. Mine was new with tags. Thanks RtR!

I wore this to my baby shower at 33 weeks and got lots of compliments. I sized up from my pre-pregnancy size and it fit a little loose, but I was afraid the 4 would be too tight.  It was a little long on me (I am 5'4").
It's a great dress for third trimester, as there isn't much shape to it! 

This is a great maternity option for a party. I was about six months pregnant with huge baby bump looking for a dress that made me feel comfortable, cute and sexy all at the same time and this dress fit the bill.  

Based on the other reviews I knew this dress Would run big so I went with a size 10 to make sure it accompanied for the bump and was not too short.  Even with the baby bump, is was still pretty long for my taste so I tied the sleeves to bring it up a bit. Needless to say I received tons of complements 

I'm five months pregnant. The dress hides my belly good. It's a good dress for a nice date. 

It's loose fitting yet still has shape. There are so many ways to wear this. 

This dress is so fun! Love the print. I paired it with a belt ( it ran a little big/ flowy) and cardigan for work. 

I wore this comfy dress with separate soft dress under it (that comes with the rental) for two lunches, out with hubs and to work in a pinch too.  Really like the silk, the pockets and the comfort.

Be warned, this dress is not structured or slim fitting, so if you are trying to highlight your shape, keep looking. If you are trying to play down some extra pounds or a baby bump, this dress is amazing! I really want to buy it; here's why:

The pattern and colors are beautiful and chic. The drape is perfect, probably because the lining layer is viscose and the outer layer is silk, both with some elastane, so there is a little give. The fabrics are also so comfortable and  light, making this perfect for warm weather. 

On top of the comfort and pretty factors, this dress is exceedingly versatile. I've worn it with sneakers for casual friend lunches, with heels for a dinner date, and with slides and a blazer for an interview. I felt perfectly dressed in all situations. I'm sure that it could be styled in even more ways, perhaps over leggings, or belted...

Oh, and it has pockets. 

Very comfortable and stylish dress w/ pockets. I wore it as a top with high waisted jeans and as a dress. It also comes with slip for added protection. I loved it.

I wore this dress for Easter. It was so flattering. It did run a little big, but I didn't mind because I had a baby in November and I'm still not back to my normal size. I got a lot of compliments. I seriously considered purchasing. 

This was cute, but nothing outstanding. Good for a day at the office. Not something I'd rent again. It does run big, so size down!

The dress is a very loose fit, I normally wear a 4/6 and this 4 was pretty baggy.  It was ok. It is sheer so you need to wear the slip (I LOVED that it was included!) and it's nice to find a dress that you can wear a regular bra. The print is nice and pockets are always a plus.  Good for work but I don't think I would wear it to go out at night or for a special occasion.  

Definitely just a fun dress. Just a big bag of art. 

This dress felt great on, not sure exactly how flattering it looked. I wore mostly with nude flats for professional casual days at work. Colors are amazing. The dress itself is a little sheer so I wore a slip underneath. Easy to wrinkle, by the end of the day I had horizontal create lines all over from sitting and driving. Nice and cool dress too, great for warm summer weather.

This dress comes in two pieces. The under layer is a soft white tank dress, and the top layer is the pretty, silky one you see on the model. It runs very large- I ordered my normal size, and should have gone down one, maybe two. The top layer is see through, so the line of the tank dress was very visible at the neck, which I didnt like. I didnt wear it, but may try again with a smaller size.

While it has a loose fit - I received a lot of compliments!

Was so pretty! I got a lot of compliments but would definitely recommend going down a size 

The size 4 was perfect for me. Unique dress - I got a lot of compliments. Perfect for spring 

Wore this 4 times on a cruise. Was effortless and looked great with flats or heels. 

I rented this for my brothers engagement party. It was so cute and comfortable. I would absolutely rent it again. 

It's a loose cut so go a size down. It still won't be fitted. I wore with black tights, short booties, and a white fur vest.

Really soft and comfortable to wear. Even though it’s basically a big T-shirt it looks very nice 

I didn't expect the number of compliments I got on this dress! I wore it work, and it was really comfortable. It's light and breezy, and comes with a slip so nothing shows through. I liked it a lot, but it's definitely a warm weather piece. 

Loved it overall.  If I owned it, I would have it hemmed. It ran quite long which forced me to wear heels to balance.  Ran very slightly large as well.  135 and 5'1" not sure if the 2 would be too small compared with the 4 I rented. Beautiful print though.

A versatile and classy dress for work. It does run a bit large (I could have worn a 6), but I prefer a flowy, boxy fit anyway. I ditched the accompanying "slip" (a white knit tank dress to wear underneath) and wore my own nude-colored slip. A more traditional lining or attached slip in a soft pink or blue would have been a better choice for the designer. But overall, this is a great little dress that's feminine yet professional for work or to dress up for a special occasion. I'd also wear it into fall/winter with a long, oversized cardigan in blue, pink or camel and booties.

It is very lightweight and the cotton slip is also very soft. There is pockets!

The fit of the dress was very current, but it was the most comfortable I've felt in a dress in a long time! Nothing right, nothing clingy. Absolutely loved it!

I wore this to work and received compliments in every meeting and also got random text messages with compliments from people who saw me walk by.... it's a hit! 

I'll probably purchase.

I would size down one size.

Perfect dress for summer in Philadelphia - lightweight, billowy, but still flattering. The fit was spot on for a size 6, but with the shape it's possible to size down. No part felt clingy and I had able room in the hips and armpits. I received tons of compliments from colleagues on the beautiful colors and pattern of the dress. 
Oh, and it has pockets!

True to size, but a loose, shift dress style. There is a separate white cotton slip dress underneath, which lets the whole thing fall in a very clean way that skims curves without any clinging or hugging. I got compliments on this dress. It looks expensive, compared with a lot of RTR rentals. One of the better things I've rented.

Great dress and easy to wear. I received many compliments.


Dress was gorgeous! So fun! I wore it to a work event and received lots of compliments. I would size down. The dress was below my knees, and overall boxy. 

This is totally my kind of dress. Loose and simply cut but with lovely details. Those details include a knit slip that comes with the dress and little internal snaps to keep the slip straps in place. The print is so beautiful (like Helen Frankenthaler's work) and just made me so happy. I would've kept it much much longer but I spilled coffee on it and wanted to get it cleaned ASAP for other lucky wearers!

Favorite rental so far. This dress is beautiful, comfortable and versatile. I was worried it would be too big, but the 4 fit perfectly. Just "oversized" enough. Great for day to night.  My only complaint is that it wrinkles fairly easily, but that was easy to overlook. 

Pattern is gorgeous in real life too. I wish I had sized down though since it is meant to be loose fitting it really hung off of me. I used a belt on it to make it a little more complimentary on my form.

It's on the larger size as the style is meant to be billowy.  I'm 5'1" and I thought the length was great at right around the knees.  The dress is beyond comfortable.   You get the look of a delicate fancy dress and the comfort of something you can Citibike around in.  

I love this. Like a really comfy yet super fancy house dress. Bravo!!

This dress is gorgeous but runs very large.
