Wanted to love this dress but it was big and small all at the same time. 

Love the cut and fabric but it runs pretty large. Fun & chic print that wears like a neutral. Very comfortable. 

This garment felt like it was tailored to my curves.  I’m super tempted to buy it!  Great fit for a curvy girl, and the length worked for my height with a modest heel.  

At first try on I thought it was too tight in the waist and hips, however, when I gave it a second try, it zipped up with more ease. There is inflexible piping that runs around the dress to give it the tiered look, so potential to hit in odd spots. I am really glad I gave it another try because it is such a lovely unique print and feminine silhouette. Wore comfortably all night for an evening wedding reception and felt very elegant.

It is a long dress! Will work best for taller women (5’8 and up) or with TALL heels. 

This dress runs just a little long but I was able to wear a bra with it which was great. I know others mention you need to wear pasties or no bra but with a C cup I needed a bra. It worked beautifully and nothing showed in the back. I loved the sleeves and the way the dress flowed. 

I wore this wine tasting in Napa on a cold day. Super comfy and chic for a full day eating and drinking! Petites beware...I'm 5'10" and it was a little long in the back with 3" heels. May not work for shorter gals. 

So many compliments on this one and it was a dream to wear. It flows so beautifully. 

I didn’t realize there were giraffes all over the dress,LoL, but I still loved it and I got so many compliments 

Got so many compliments on this dress! It is a bit long but with a heeled boot it worked perfectly 

This dress is gorgeous. I almost bought it. So many compliments, such a fun pattern. Note: it is impossible to zip yourself. I had to get assistance and there is not give in the fabric. But will definitely rent again.

I loved this dress and received so many compliments. It does run large - I am a true 2/4 and ordered the S. It was baggy on top and incredibly long. I'm 5'9" and wore 3" heels - the dress was still dragging. Size down!

Dress runs a little on the long side (made for a taller person) but loved the dramatic sleeves. Got a lot of complements on the print

I’m tall and wore super tall heels so beware it’s super long but so beautiful and so comfortable 

I wanted to love this one but two things didn’t work for me. The sleeves were very long and overwhelming on me and the tiered seams caused a weird “baby bump” effect and the fabric was tight around my hips/thighs. Overall didn’t feel good in it and wasn’t flattering on my body. 

Everything about this dress…from the rich earthy colors, the length, the fabric, was perfection.  It is a bit fitted and structured but it has accent details in the right places.  The fabric is light and airy but heavy enough that it is not see-through.  I wore it date night to a fancy restaurant and got so many compliments. 

Super flattering. Hugs your curves without being skin tight. Easy to move and dance. I wore it on a hot Tennessee day but it felt breathable enough. Love love love the pattern and received so many compliments!

I had to rig this dress with safety pins to get it too fit in the shoulders and bust area.  The XS seemed to be made for very long and tall people.  Aside from that, I loved everything about this and will def be renting this again!! Got tons of compliments on it all night! 

The medium was too tight in the places with the fabric rings so I ordered the L. The dress was so long that my 5 inch heels did nothing. There were still 4-5 inches draping at my feet.
The print is as beautiful as all FRio items. The details in the puttons: chef's kiss. 
I just couldn't enjoy wearing it do to the length and amount of fabric.

I wore this twice, to a work owners dinner, and out in NYC. This dress is stunning, so flattering, comfortable, and can be dressed up or down. I received so many compliments at both events. If it wasn’t such a statement piece I would probably buy it. 

This dress was true to size. I wore it to a birthday dinner and out for drinks with friends. It was easy to wear and extremely flattering. I received multiple compliments. My only complaint is that I wore heels with it that were getting caught on the end of the dress as I walked. If you do choose to rent, I would consider a block heel, boots, or flats. 

Fell in love with this dress when I saw it on the website!!! When it arrived it was supperrr long, even wearing 4 in heeled boots it was dragging on the floor. Ended up wearing for Christmas Eve by just tucking an entire section of the dress into a belt. Ended up being super cute and was wearable enough, but only ended up wearing once bc it was so much work. Love the pattern tho! 

I wore this dress to a bridal shower and got many compliments on it. Something different from what I typically would wear. As far as sizing, I rented an XS when I usually wear a M in dresses. I recommend sizing down because if I got any other size it would’ve been too big.

This dress is so tasteful and classy. I felt so feminine and elegant wearing it. The warm tones are gorgeous!

Super cute print, the bulky sleeves weren’t my favorite but I ended up wearing a sleek leather jacket and it worked out great! 

Rented for a party, but it felt better suited for work so I adjusted. Conservative but close-fitting. The small was just right for me, I’m usually a 4 in dresses. 

Lightweight, high quality and breathable! 

I’m a tall, skinny girl and this made me look huge! Returning immediately. 

Farm Rio is notorious for their oversized looks.  I got a small thinking I would be safe but this dress is too long in the length, arms, & waist. I had on 4 1/2 inch heels, I’m 5’5, and this was still dragging on the floor. I even pinned the top to take off 2 inches. You will need to be over 5’10 to pull this off or everything will hit wrong.  The material and print were great! Tall ladies, knock yourself out, it’s super cute for y’all! 

At 5’5, this dress was long for me. I had to wear 4 inch platform heels but I didn’t mind. I felt like it was hard to find a place to wear it. It’s a little fancier than just an everyday maxi, but I didn’t think it was very formal either. I’ll likely wear it to work one day every though it’s a little much for that environment but whatever.
The xs fit me well. It was fitted in the waist and bust but not too much where I couldn’t breathe. The fabric has no stretch so get your normal size or a size up if you aren’t sure. Sizing down won’t help with the length, it’ll only make the dress tighter.

So comfortable! Excellent color and pattern. Strange fit around my middle section that felt better as I moved around in it.  Can be worn for so many occasions. Great for fall. Top is shear and upper back is open, so consider upper garments if conservatively worn. I chose a stylish sports bra 

I wore for a baby shower, I loved it! Very comfortable and cute. 
Great for November! 
The XS fit better in length as well! I wore small heels 
I’m 5’4-5’5 for reference, usually wear a Small. The small was too big here 


I enjoyed wearing it, it was very comfortable and I thought overall flattering. Personally I have a very wide rib cage and this probably wasn’t the most flattering cut for me but I enjoyed it still. I thought the bodice detail/outline was sexy while being fully covered and I was able to wear a strapless bra without issue despite the large keyhole opening in back. It was very, very long on me even with a heel. 

The chest fit a little funny because the cups didn’t fully fit over my own chest but overall was a great dress.  Definitely needs a strapless bra 

I received so many compliments when I wore this dress during a recent Board meeting in Cali! Rent it now!

Such a flattering fit & so many compliments!
