Great cut, especially for those with a larger chest.  The waist was really flattering and perfect for a summer day date!

Floral, fun, and festive! A perfect summer evening dress!

Got tons of compliments on this dress. The colors are vibrant. The dress runs very small around the rib cage so size up or you won't be able to zip it up

This dress was one of my favorites. I was so sad to see it go. Fits true to size and is such a fun piece. 

Wore this for my son's Christening. It fit my large bust 34E(DDD), gave me a waist and covered my post baby belly -- a win in my book!

Rented this for a party - love the pockets - super comfortable. Light weight material. Will defintely rent again.

Loved this dress! Has some structure which is nice, but is pretty light overall so great for summer! Wore this in Europe - easy to dress up or down. Highly recommend!

The fit was snug but not uncomfortable. The only area it was tight in was the rib cage. I always rent my dresses from RTR and I've never been disappointed. 

This is awesome for an hourglass shape. I ended up purchasing it. The picture looks like it gave me a belly but it was quite flattering when I stood up straight.


I wore this to a casual summer wedding.  Super comfortable. 

This dress is just absolutely perfect. I wore it to an afternoon wedding reception where I stuffed myself with pasta and was super comfy the whole time. It is a bit tight in the ribs, so I recommend sizing up for back up--- I ended up wearing the larger size. I wish I could buy this baby! The colors are gorgeous and the fabric is a lot thicker in person than I anticipated. It's a really well-made dress. Great, affordable rental! My one regret--the only full length photo of me in the dress is this moment when I found an abandoned bath tub in the middle of a parking lot.

I wore this for a bridal shower and it was perfect. It was comfortable and flattering. The bright color and print stand out, I received multiple compliments. 

This dress was perfect for my 20 year reunion!  Lots of volume on the bottom but that gave it a nice shape overall.

This dress fit great! I loved the color and how fun and unique it was. I kept getting compliments about  how great it looked on me - I would definitely rent again!

I rented this dress for a day on the town (tea service and rooftop cocktails). I just had a baby a few months ago and this dress made me feel great! I could wear a normal bra and the cut was very flattering for a postpartum bod. The skirt is full, the colors are vibrant and it has pockets to boot. I paired it with comfy TOMS heels. Loved this dress! 

I rented this dress to wear for my 29th birthday and was definitely not disappointed! I got tons of compliments about how adorable this dress was. I rented both the 4 and 6 because I was nervous about how it might fit. The 4 fit perfectly! 

Being 3 months post partum. this dress made my body feel good. the fit was great and dedinitely flattering. it covered up all the little extras perfectly. this was my first rental ..
and definitely wont be my last!

Literally everyone I saw that night commented on how cute his dress was. Loved it, kinda want to buy it for myself. Technically when I did the measurements for sizing based off kate spades website, I was a 12. But the 12 on was way too big, 10 fit perfectly. Definitely recommend this dress! 

This dress was great. I almost always wear a size 6 and this fit just as expected- not tight at all. It was comfortable and fun to wear. The piping wasn't revealing- I didn't think a slip was necessary, thankfully, because it was a hot day. I liked the length as well. The pockets were AMAZING to have! Why don't all dresses come with pockets! 

This dress was very cute. Slightly snug in the rib cage area so I sized up. Very comfortable and light weight. 

This dress is a little above the knee.  It is tasteful (not too low cut).  It has a flattering fit especially if you have a smaller waist.  I am an older woman, but I still loved the youthful feel of the dress.  I wore it with high heels and a gold choker and 2 gold cuffs.  If I can figure out how to get pictures downloaded I will do that soon.  The dress was beautiful even on my rather large frame. 

I rented this dress for an outdoor wedding. It was very flattering and looked great with a wrap and jacket later in the evening and I thought it was pretty easy to match with shoes and accessories. 

It was a bit low cut on me (bra size 36D) and the dress hit just above my knee (I'm a little under 5'5"). The blue circle detailing along the bust is see through but it isn't very noticeable. 


This dress was fun and festive I was worried it would be tight in the chest but fit great would highly recommend 

It was so cute and comfy. No need for bra but I'm small chested. 

I loved this dress. Perfect for a warm spring day. A very cool feature- it has pockets!!

I loved everything about this dress...the fit - the color!  It was wonderful for Bourbon & Bubbles, a charity event at an art museum.  The blue is beautiful & vibrant - it popped in a sea of black!  I wore it without a bra and felt totally comfortable!

I loved this Kate Spade. Very pretty blue. It had pockets. The piping on the skirt and chest is see through. It wasn't really noticeable but I did not like it. Other than that, a great dress.

This dress fits great.  I live the feel of the stretchy cotton fabric. It's wrinkle resistant.  The colors are bold! It's a fun spring frock. 

Pros: colorful, lightweight fabric, fits your curves just right. Cons: smelled terrible out of the bag. Had to get it dry cleaned before heading to a college reunion. Seems like the color is fading on the dress. But I'd get again/buy my own so I know it won't smell bad.

Cute, short, spring dress. Nice bold colors. Comfy to wear, but ran small for kate spade. I typically wear a 2 for her dresses and this one fit perfectly as a 4. I think a 2 wouldn't have fit. 

Super cute dress that I received lots of compliments on. My only complaint would be that this dress is worn and faded. The detailing around the arms is very worn so it's definitely not in "like new" condition. 

Super cute dress but the fabric was worn out. Color of the dress very faded. Kate spade doesn't design for women with big chest so fit is tricky. Nonetheless it worked for a running errands day.

I wanted to wear something fairly casual for this shower at a outdoor beer garden. This dress was a good choice-- I loved the colors, pattern, and the quality of the dress. Also loved that I could wear a regular bra. I didn't give it five stars, because I did feel it ran slightly small in the bust. The tightness in this area made it appear that I was squeezing into the dress. I think it's best suited for women with smaller busts.

I wore this dress for my Godson's Baptism and it was comfortable and perfect for a summer party.  Here are some things to keep in mind:
*I typically wear a size 8, but couldn't even zipper the 8 and ended up wearing the 10.  The 10 was  a little tight around my ribs, but still comfortable and fit everywhere else.  But perhaps it runs small?
*If you have a very large chest, this might not be the dress for you.  There isn't much room in that area and you might end up feeling smooshed.  
*The dress is not lined and I worried I might need to wear a slip under it, especially since the detailing has holes, but I ended up without one and it was fine.  
*I'm tall - 5'9 - and the length was perfect!

Honestly, my favorite part about this summery fun dress was that I didn't have to wear a strapless bra! One downside is that the Lacey sections of this dress are actually see-through so you could see my bra up top. The fabric on both the size I wore and my backup size were well-worn and the colors were fading. However, I still received tons of compliments. 

This little number was pretty, comfy, and had pockets! It's very flattering and was the perfect look for a casual outdoor wedding. 

Fit was great and it was comfy and had pockets! I thought that the colors looked a little faded but it was still cute. 

Ran pretty true to size, I think, though not a ton of give around the ribcage. Loved the pockets. The bottom was a little poofier skirt than I typically prefer, but made it fun and roomy to dance in. Was tight enough on top to go without a bra, though I'm not super busty. Most of all, loved the color and design. The blue is really blue and the flowers really pop. 

I rented this dress for a bridal shower and birthday party that I was attending on the same day.  Overall, the fit of the dress was true to size, but it did gape a little bit under my arms which did cause my bra to show.   I loved the fun color and pattern and the best part was the pockets!! I would definitely rent this dress again. 

Did the lace detailing (which seems to be in the chest area as well) mean that you can see through the dress to wear your bra would be?


I wore this to an engagement party. I'm 3 months post-baby and up several sizes (currently weigh 155), so I planned accordingly. While I am an 8 in some retailers' dresses, I definitely needed the 10. The fabric has little give, but the structure made for a great choice for this new mom. The waistline helped hide the baby belly I still have. Also, there is a lace detailing in the dress which has holes in it (lace is no more than 1/3 inch)- in theory, you could see straight through to skin, but I doubt anyone would be looking that closely. Overall a nice dress - easy to wear and has pockets!
