I wore this dress for my bridal shower. I wanted something that wasn't the typical white bridal shower type dress, and I got so many complements on this dress. It was comfortable and fit me very well in the bust and waist. Overall a great dress!

Cute, but this dress should be retired.
Size worn: None
Overall fit: Small
Rented for: Wedding
The dress I rented seemed quite faded, and should probably be put out of rotation. It is a heavy material, so I wouldn't want to wear at an outdoor function.
You can't go wrong with Kate Spade, and the style of the dress was great, but this particular garment had seen better days.

I wore this dress for my Brother's wedding.
Size worn: 6
Overall fit: True to Size

I ordered a 6 and 8. I wore the 6 and the dress fir perfect and photographs beautifully. My only complaint is that the fabric is cotton and wrinkles easily. I had to have it pressed out when I received it. Overall very happy with my rental. I received a ton of compliments.

Wore this to a friends Bridal Shower and it was the perfect dress. Received lots of compliments. It fit well, but was a little large around the armholes (though I'm sort of tiny on top). I did pair it with a black belt, and a belt really looks good with this dress.

First RTR dress and I loved it! I would rent this dress again or buy it if I could!
Size worn: 2
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Other
The fabric is smooth, soft, and very comfortable. The length was just right - it hit just below my knee. I normally wear a size 2, but I also rented a size 4 just in case. The 2 fit perfectly. Size 4 would of worked too, it was just a bit more roomier in the chest area. As others have mentioned, the white area of the dress isn't as white as pictured. It's more light beige, which I didn't mind at all. Overall my first RTR experience was great and am looking forward to future rentals!

Elegant without being stuffy
Size worn: 4
Overall fit: Large
Rented for: Wedding
Wore this dress to a friend's wedding. I was very pleased with the overall "look" but the dress itself was showing wear and tear. I wear a large cup size but there was enough room in the stretched-out top that I could have fit into a 2. (Although one wasn't available as a backup size.) Also, both of the loop/snap things at the shoulder to hold bra straps were broken. (I improvised with the fashion tape sample instead.) It was clean but needed ironing after shipping.

Just a tad bit tight in the bust area. I loved the dress it self. Needed to send it off to get pressed and I thought it was a somewhat worn looking.

Cute dress, but definitely not for all seasons!
Size worn: None
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Other
I ordered this as my backup dress, and ended up wearing my first choice. This dress is charming, but is a softer cotton than I expected - so arrived a bit wrinkly (understandable) and has NO LINING. I don't mind so much, except I was considering it for a November event in New England, and was worried about tights/hose causing static cling issues, as well as general thickness of the material. Also, because of the material, it didn't feel as appropriate for a black-tie optional event as I'd hoped (which is what I ordered it for).
I realized I had another event a few days later that this might work for, but couldn't extend my rental. If I'd been allowed to extend to 8 days, I probably would've worn it because it's cute, fits great, and especially once I'd pressed it, would fall nicely and look sharp. But I was planning on putting a slip underneath, as well as tights - and once I found out I'd have to go through the process of re-renting it, I decided it wasn't worth the extra effort. Will keep an eye out for a spring/summer event though!

This dress fit perfectly! I had to wear it for a dinner event and it was classy black, but the stripes made it fun. I loved how the skirt flared out, so eating the dinner didn't make me feel self conscious. Would definitely rent again since I didn't get any pictures in it.

Great for a preppy, polished look
Size worn: 2
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Wedding
This dress was great for a casual, country club wedding. However, I wish it came in a petite size because the top was a little too long for my shorter, petite torso. The skirt was fantastic and very full. I ended up wearing this with a big cluster of pearls and some cobalt blue heels to make it a little more modern. Overall, very cute dress, we'll made, and super easy to rent!

Perfect dress for my 30th birthday party!!
Size worn: 14
Overall fit: Large
Rented for: Party
I am usually a size 16, but after reading reviews that it ran big--I decided to give the 14 a try. I am so happy that I did! It fit perfectly. I received countless compliments on the dress all night. The only reason that I didn't give this dress 5 stars is because the off-white is almost tan... not that I was expecting bright white, but it is definitely darker than the picture. That being said, I would still rent this dress again!

I did not wear this dress and had to return it. Too plain for a wedding.
Size worn: None
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Wedding
The fabric looks a lot shinier and polished in the photos. In reality, it's a very plain heavy fabric that just didn't feel elegant to me. This would've been perfect for a day time casual wedding, not the fancy cocktail wedding we were attending. The fit was a little tight around my chest so that was another factor in the return of the dress.

Great dress, but different from picture
Size worn: 2
Overall fit: Large
Rented for: Party
I loved the fit and style of this dress, but a couple aspects are affecting my rating. First, the dress I received was so faded that it looked more like navy than black. Second, it came very wrinkled and I do not have the iron skills to tackle those pleats! I ended up wearing it and got compliments, but I didn't feel like it was the dress I signed up for. Still, I love RTR!

Very cute but too big
Size worn: None
Overall fit: Large
Rented for: Other
Rented this to wear the day after my wedding. The dress was cute but much too big up top. The waste fit well and the skirt didn't fall long, however, I probably could have taken off two inches from the top (was able to pull the dress up about that high past my shoulders). I didn't end up wearing it because it bunched up so much in the chest due to how long the upper half of the dress was. If you have a long torso this will probably work well for you!

Classic silhouette

This is a lovely dress, although repeated dry cleaning has turned the cream stripes to tan.
There are tiny clasps to hold your bra straps in place, a great detail! It's a little awkwardly sized in the front, so I recommend this dress for A-C cups only - although my DD looked ok.

Wanted to like this dress but wasn't right for me.
Size worn: OO
Overall fit: Small
Rented for: Wedding
I'm petite (5'0 and 100lbs). I rented the size 00 because I always have a hard time finding dresses that aren't too big on me. In this case, the 00 did not fit well. The top part was large in the shoulders, too tight in the waist, and the flared skirt overwhelmed my frame.
Unfortunately, the dress also arrived smelling very strongly of mothballs and with a small stain on the skirt. I've always been pleased with the condition of other Rent the Runway dresses so this was a bit of a disappointment.

Pretty but not as formal as I expected
Size worn: 8
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Wedding
This dress was very pretty and I felt great in it, but the fabric was not as heavy as I expected - its just cotton and the dress didn't feel as special as I wanted to for the wedding I was attending. I ended up wearing this to services the day before the wedding and felt great in it.
You could tell it had been worn - the black was slightly faded (even compared to the other size I got) and there was the telltale sign of deodorant fading at the arms.
