I wore this to a wedding.  It is very flattering and forgiving.  Loved it and would rent again.  Runs true to size.  I wore a medium.  

Hangs beautifully, very forgiving and flattering. Still able to wear with a motto jacket despite the cold shoulder cut (sometimes a challenge). 

This dress fit great and was loose in all the right areas. It was dressy without being too formal and amazingly comfortable!

I am a size L, 12 ... but at the last min they were not able to send me that size.  So RTR still sent the M plus several backup options.  Thankfully the M fit. It was a bit snug in the neck and shorter than I would have liked while hauling around two babies but it was still quite flattering, and camouflaging my mom belly well.  

This was the perfect dress for my 20th high school reunion. The styling was just the right balance of fun night out and comfort. The slightly trapeze shape hid my mommy tummy, the cold shoulder detail and flounce added the right amount of flare without adding to my already large bust, and the length was right, even with my long legs and 4" heels I didn't feel like it was too short. The only reason I didn't give it five stars was it doesn't have pockets. But it does have bra keepers! The fabric is a medium weight crepe and the dress is unlined. I highly recommend this dress and I will definitely rent it again if I have any more events to go to.

Dress fit well and I received a lot of complements. It was hard to give back!

Loved this dress. It was comfortable but had a great slimming effect. Loved the cold shoulder. It arrived a little wrinkled, I lightly ironed it and it was perfect. Just an easy comfortable pretty dress 

This dress was very flattering and comfortable. I got compliments all night!

I really liked this dress. It's light weight and easy to wear. It's roomy in the bust and the hips for a shift. I would recommend!

I got this dress in a large and a medium. I ended up wearing the medium! You'll notice in the picture, I also didn't wear it as a cold shoulder dress. I tried it on like it is in the picture and didn't think anything of it. The day of the wedding I was getting ready and ended up with the cold shoulder look. I felt a bit restricted with that look and somehow managed to get back to the look in my picture! Much more comfortable in my opinion! I felt very pretty in this dress, especially because I didn't have to wear Spanx (although, I hate them, so I don't wear them anyway!)! I'd rent this dress, again!

Pros: hides mommy tummy, loved the shoulder draping details, great fabric and perfect length

This dress was true to size. I'm 145 pounds and 5'1" and usually wear a medium. The medium fit well. I didn't actually wear it because it didn't flatter me. The other dress in my shipment was more flattering. 

Loved this dress! I have a "mom pouch" and this dress was flowy enough to go over it without even needing spanx! After reading other reviews, I sized 1 size down. I typically wear a large but the medium fit perfectly. 

I love this dress. I'd gained some weight and was self conscious about what dress to wear. I didn't want anything too tight in the tummy. This dress was not tight and fit perfectly. I felt beautiful in it. I'm about 145lbs (5'5") in the photo. The small was a perfect fit. 

Fit true to size. I’m a 12/14 and it was loose enough to feel good on. Great for any occasion.

This is the second time I've rented this dress, and it is super flattering. The Medium fits really nicely, but is slightly shorter, so I prefer the Large. It lays really nicely, the ruffles add a nice feminine touch, and it is just a really great dress. 

I had read in reviews that this dress ran large which worked perfectly for me. I wear a 16/18 normally, but the xl (14) was perfect! You won't be disappointed in this gorgeous black dress.

Great alternative to a lbd! Super comfy. If you're going simple and classy - this is great! Loved that it hid my trouble spots  (arms and belly) without needing a belt or sweater. If you're looking for a bit more sexy, another dress or light colored stockings with pumps is fantastic. I wore with wedge boots and dark tights to casual this style down. 

Very very comfortable - probably best dress I've rented from RTR yet. Will definitely rent again. Currently 180#, 63", and DDD chest. 

This dress fits exactly as the display picture shows. It was super comfortable as it was not fitted. It runs a little big as I don't wear a Medium too often and it fit perfectly. 

Fit was perfect for me. I absolutely loved wearing this dress. I felt comfortable all night. I would have bought it if I could!

This was my backup dress and I’m so glad I got it. I wore a size medium which is what I typically wear in dresses that are not form fitting. I loved this dress, it was comfortable and flattering!!!

This was perfect for a rehearsal dinner! It was so comfortable and flattering. The fabric and style is so forgiving if you're feeling a little self conscious about your arms or stomach as I do! 

This dress fir perfect and had a nice flow so it was also very flattering.

This dress is amazing! It does run a bit big, I normally wear a medium but was able to wear the small. It's super flattering and you don't even need to wear spanx ;) It might be a little short for taller girls, I am about 5'6" and I for sure wouldn't bend over in it haha. I would buy this dress if I could!

I got the medium and the large and went with the medium. It fit great, was comfortable, and perfect for the party I went to. I have trouble finding clothes to fit but this dress was flattering. Very classy. 

I ordered the S and XS and ended up wearing the S, mostly because I felt the XS was a little too short. The S fell a couple of inches above my knees--apologies that I didn't get a more full-length photo. I think this dress is a fun style, flattering for many body types, and comfortable to both sit and dance in. There's a cute pearl button at the back of the neck, so I got to wear my pearl jewelry!
I'm 5'2", 135 lbs, curvy, 36C.

I wore this to a work party. Very cute, simple, and comfortable! It runs a little large so it's not quite as flattering or form-fitting as other dresses but I definitely enjoyed wearing it for the night! 

Great dress. It did run large. I'm normally a 10/12, but the medium for me perfect! Comfortable and forgiving.  

Fit well.  Only complaint was that it was a little too short for my taste. 

I rented this dress for a gala for the nonprofit I work for. It was very comfortable and a great LBD. I liked that I could wear fun jewelry with it- it was easy to wear and I would rent it again for a similar event. The large would have been perfect but wasn't available when I ordered. (Sorry for the mirror picture; I worked the event and didn't get to take a picture there!) 

RTR could not send the backup size (S) so I wore the M.  It was probably a bit big but I felt great in it because it hid my midsection which is what I wanted!  I'm renting the dress again already but have ordered the (S) again as the backup size! Good experience! 

This dress was roomy and comfortable. Love the black color and the cold shoulder detail. You don't have to suck anything in in this dress. It was so comfortable!

Great LBD. You can dress it up or down as much as you want. Loved that it was looser so it was very comfortable. Probably could've worn the small, but the Medium worked out great too.

I have broad shoulders and this dress worked perfectly for me.  I probably could have worn a medium; however, there wasn't one available. 

Perfect for a wedding!  I'm a size 12 in dresses and I wore a large comfortably. 

Runs large, very comfy. Sleeves aren't awkward at all. In the pic my bra strap had fallen down :-/ Was able to chase a 2 1/2 yr old around a wedding all night with no problem lol. Only dislike is I felt like it made me look boxy/bigger than I am. Did receive lots of compliments on it though. 

This was actually my back-up dress but I am so glad the other did not fit because this one made me feel SO good! I loved the cold shoulder look and the ruffles added to it!

Absolutely fantastic rental. I was so comfortable all night. The wedding was outside and I was nervous I would get too hot but the material kept me cool and I received a million compliments! Highly recommend!!!! 

I wore this dress to a retirement party.  I'm 5'8", 150 lbs, athletic build.  This dress was very comfy, with plenty of room for movement.  I wore a Medium, and possibly could have worn a Small (however size small typically is too tight across the shoulders (not a concern with this dress) or too short.  The material is heavy enough to not blow in the wind, and I didn't need a slip.  I wore a black sports bra since a regular bra straps were exposed on the shoulders due to cut of dress.  I'd definitely rent this again.
