Both the 12 and the 14 fit well on me. The zipper on the 12 was making me nervous, so i went with the 14. Thanks for sending the little black belt. That was great. I was able to wear a bra with the dress and I like the long skirt. I love this dress!

I wore this dress to a private event and I was so sad when it was over and I didn't have a reason to wear the dress anymore. I told my sister that I wish I had worn it to something more public because this dress makes you want to be seen, by everyone! For the first time in my life it was fun to feel like people were talking aboout me haha. I loved it so so much that it was painful having to send it back. It was incredibly comfortable and easy to wear. I was one of 10 bridesmaids and I definitely stood out in the line-up. Heads turned in my direction for sure. This is my favorite rental to date. Definitely on the potential buy list.

I wore it to a 50s party and it was perfect! The fit was great except for the top area. It was a bit loose because my chest isn't very large. It didn't really bother me as the night went on though. It was true to size everywhere else.

This dress was so much fun to wear. If you like to spin around and dance, it's perfection. The top is stretchy and the bottom is a heavier cotton fabric. I would recommend having an iron or steamer on hand as the bottom can get wrinkled in the bag.

Best Dress Ever!
Size worn: 6
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Wedding
I got this dress in both the 6 and 8 as other reviews said it ran a bit small. It fit completely true to size on me. I'm 5'9 (typically wear a 6) and the skirt hit just above the knee. The waist on this dress is lovely - it makes your waist appear tiny - especially with the belt.
Honestly, I did not want to send this dress back! It was comfortable and incredibly flattering. My favorite part about the dress is how versatile it can be. I dressed it up with some jewelery, shiny clutch, and purple shawl...however, you could totally wear this to brunch too. It's a do over!

Size worn: 8
Overall fit: Large
Rented for: Wedding
I rented this dress for a wedding I was in, and I do not regret it! It did not come with the belt pictured, but a quick trip to F21 fixed that. The dress material was very thin and might need steaming to remove wrinkles. I received tons of compliments. If you are thinking about this dress, I'd say go for it.

Overall fit: True to Size

I rented this beauty over Labor Day weekend for my first ever polo match in CT, and it couldn't have been more perfect. I paired it with a big floppy black hat and the Lee Angel "Tie Up in Crystal Necklace" and Nicole Miller "Star Light Star Bright" bracelet and open toed flats to make the full outfit. I'm petite (5'3") with a solid atheltic build (~130 lbs), and the size 4 looked like it had been made for my body. One caution--if you're traveling, this may not be the dress for the job. The material, while of good quality (felt like poplin/lycra, with a good bit of give), shows wear and wrinkles very easily. There were some subtle water stains on the taupe stripes that you could really only see up close, and I did have to iron the dress when I received it. That said, if you like classic, understated style and you're thinking of renting this, I say go for it!

"You look AMAZING in that dress" - from the bride!
Size worn: 10
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Wedding
This dress was amazing. I got compliments all evening. I am 5'10, weigh 168 lbs and have a large bust. The belt that comes with the dress is perfect for cinching the waist. The back of the dress is cut lower than the front which is very nice (and classy) look. I wore a size ten which was very true to size. Not too big not too small.
I will say that the stripes are not exactly black and white. It's sort of black and cream/beige (but shows up white in pictures taken with flash). I will also recommend ironing the pleats because some got lost when the dress was mailed and then in my luggage during the flight to the wedding.

I felt so beautiful and had such ease chasing around my toddler daughter.
Size worn: 8
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Wedding
If I weren’t happily married, I might consider marrying this dress. It was perfect for me! I loved the soft fabric, and the dress was perfect for an outdoor event. Since the occasion I rented a dress for was a family wedding and my toddler daughter was the flower girl, I had a couple of requirements for my selection: 1) It had to be comfortable; 2) I had to feel beautiful; 3) The dress had to have a timeless feel since these pictures would be in my family’s for decades to come, and; 4) I had to have the ability to chase around a toddler and bend down with ease (trust me, a ton of dresses were cut out of my list immediately for this reason alone ;) ). This Kate Spade dress met all of the above requirements, and I received so many compliments all night! I haven’t felt -this- gorgeous in quite some time. It looked great with a nude flat (I was walking in grass) and a bright earring!

For our golf tournament party, the name of the dress was quite fitting.
Size worn: 8
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Party
Fittingly, I wore this to my fiance's golf tournament party. Since the summer weather was a bit more on the chilly side, I felt a bit more covered up and appropriate for the event. While I dressed it up a bit with a fun necklace, you really don't need much for this dress. I will say that the size 8 was a bit snug in the waist, but the 10 would have been a bit too roomy up top. Fortunately the belt could be adjusted to provide a little more room after a nice helping of dinner and dessert.

Everyone wanted to know where I got this dress and how RTR worked! It was amazing.
Size worn: 10
Overall fit: Small
Rented for: Formal Affair
I wore this dress for my Bridal Shower which had an English Tea theme. I ordered this dress in the 8 and the 10, knowing that designers of this caliber usually run small. The 8 fit fine but was a little tight around the waist area. The 10 was perfect. I loved all the little details in this dress. For example, the skirt is lined with lace on the bottom of the inside. Everyone kept asking me where I got it. I think RTR may be paying me some money for the amount of advertising they got from me wearing this dress! :)

I have another wedding in a few weeks and may rent this same dress.
Size worn: 8
Overall fit: Small
Rented for: Wedding
I ordered a 6 and an 8 and while I think the dress runs small, I may have to admit that I am running a bit big. I went with the 8 and it was perfect. I am 5' 6' and the dress hit perfectly, just above my knee. I have broad shoulders but the scoop in the back provides lots of mobility. The skirt is also fun and twirly whirly when dancing. Heads up, it needed a press when it arrived and was an ironing challenge given the pleats. Downside: It's not lined. I would have expected a lining in a Kate Spade. I got lots of compliments!

I absolutely loved wearing this dress!
This dress is fun and has a classic look to it.. everyone complimented it! Its very comfortable to wear as well. I usually wear a 4 but I wore my backup size 6 since the 4 felt a little tight around the natural waist. Even one size up the dress wasn't too long on me (even though I am 5'4").
I felt great in this dress! If you are considering it for an event, I say go for it!!

It's a very 1950s cut - I loved the fit on top and it definitely accentuated my waist. But the way the first cream-colored band drapes off the hips, I definitely would not recommend this dress for other full-hipped ladies. On the other hand, if you hips are less than full, wear with abandon!

This is a beautiful dress and was a perfect choice for my brother-in-law's graduation brunch! The stripes are adorable, but the cut of the dress makes it sophisticated. The patent leather belt goes great with it. My only complaint is that I think it would fit someone with a shorter torso better as my natural waist was about two inches below where the belt hit. Overall, a wonderful summer dress for those special occasions where you want to look like a lady! Thanks RTR!

The dress was true to size but it was longer then I expected (slightly below my knees). I didn't mind it being slightly longer because it was probably more appropriate for my event. Overall, it was a beautiful dress and is one of my favorites. I would definitely rent this dress again.

This dress is beautiful and great for a wedding. I was worried about wearing it for a winter wedding but it was perfect. I put on black tights with a black jacket. I was disappointed that the dress no longer had the belt attached so I had to buy a separate one. Also the dress had been dry cleaned a few too many times because the black was fading so it was obvious that my black jacket was black and the dress was fading. Other than that it was a great dress...perfect for salsa dancing too!

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.
