The best dress I ever rented on this site! I wore this for a classy hotel wedding and a lot of people gave me compliments on this dress and the necklace (which i also rented in this picture). Especially if you have caramel skin, the color looks great! The dress flowed perfectly as I danced, and my date couldn't keep his eyes off me :) You might need the size down, as the dress could make you look larger if you don't.

Perfect color and fit for a summer wedding
Size worn: XS
Overall fit: Large
Rented for: Wedding
I'm short and petite, with an athletic figure and large bust (34D). I usually wear a 4-6 in dresses (sometimes even an 8, because of my chest), but I rented both a S and XS. I ended up going with the XS because the S was a little too big and sack-like. Also, the length of the XS was much better; the S was just a little too long for my short legs. The dress definitely runs large, like others have said. The XS fit well, although it was a little tight around the bust, but then again I have a larger chest than most. Other than that, the dress was incredibly comfortable and the color is beautiful. I got lots of compliments throughout the night. I wore it with nude pumps and the Ciner Antique Cascading Crystal Necklace (also from RTR). Although the material was a little heavier than I was expecting, it wasn't too hot for a summer wedding.

This dress was perfect for the July wedding I was in. The bride requested we wear coral and this fit the bill. It was fun - a little short without being overtly sexy due to the draping of the dress. Also comfy for eating and drinking. I would recommend, in fact I am renting the teal version for a wedding this weekend! My order required last minute customer service, and the stylist went above and beyond to ensure I had what I needed.

I rented this dress for a wedding in San Diego this past weekend. It was perfect! At first I was worried that it would be a bit too short and that I wouldn't feel comfortable moving around, but that wasn't the case at all. I decided on the L that I ordered as a back-up instead of the M just for a little breathing room. I did wear Spanx and would recommend a body smoothing underwear as the dress did show the lines in the back. As the mother of three children, I love the draped look, but I think this dress would compliment all body styles.I think the picture I am attaching shows the true color of the dress...it is a beautiful pink-coral. You could literally accessorize this dress ANY way you want to, but I chose nude patent shoes, a beaded chocolate clutch, and chocolate quartz chandelier earrings. I purchased the adhesive support bra pads from RTR, which worked perfectly without having to wear a bra. I received so many compliments at the wedding, and told everyone about RTR!

I rented this for a CT July Wedding on the water. It was perfect and so comfortable. I was worried I would get lost in the fabric but it was just the right amount of flowy-ness to cover up any of the bloat you may develop from the fabulous cocktails and finger foods! I ended up wearing the XS just because of the length and there was a small pen mark on the S. I rented the Lilly Pulitzer clutch and Lee Angel necklace. I cant wait to rent for the next wedding coming up!

Extremely flattering dress, love the color!
Size worn: L
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Wedding
I wore this dress for a friend's wedding this past summer, about three months after I gave birth to my first child (the baby in the pic). Beyonce I am not, and I was still not down to my pre-pregnancy weight so I was super self conscious about being in front of people I haven't seen in a long time looking fat. Enter this amazing dress. I had no idea what size I would be since I was somewhere in between what I wore for maternity clothes and what I used to wear, so I went with a large thinking it would give me some leeway. It totally did. The dress hugged perfectly on top (my bust has been larger than normal due to nursing my baby and I normally find dresses to be too tight on top and too loose on the bottom in general, but this fit nicely and did not squeeze or cut off circulation) and was very forgiving in the middle section where I needed it to be. The dress falls mid-thigh so it drew attention to my legs instead of my middle. I could see it feeling a little short to taller girls, but on me I loved where it fell. I received lots of compliments and I would totally rent this again and highly recommend it.

I wore this dress for an award ceremony and it was perfect for the occasion!
The color is absolutely gorgeous, and is perfect with heels or sandals!
I decided to belt the dress since it was a bit shapeless, but with a belt i got tons of compliments!
I would say it runs a tad bit bigger, so i wore the XS, but the S looked great too.

Size worn: M
Overall fit: Large

I could have worn the small, but the look and feel of the medium was so much better. It was a bit large, but the larger fit just looked better on my body. You don't necessarily need a NuBra with this dress, but I would recommend it. Definitely invest in some accessories. I have never received so many compliments on an outfit! I was so sad to return it, and I hope the chance comes for me to purchase this dress!

Great color for any skin type. Very comfortable. Would recommend getting a size smaller then what you usually would. I had two events in one weekend. If I knew I wouldn't run into some of the same people at both events I would have worn this two nights in a row. Tons of compliments all night. I would highly recommend this dress and see myself renting it in the future.

Rented this lovely dress for a wedding rehearsal while I was about 6 months pregnant.
Size worn: S
Overall fit: True to Size

Finding a stylish formal maternity dress that wasn't $500 seemed to be a challeng. I opted to rent this non maternity dress in hopes that I would fit around my growing bump. Since RTW lets you rent two different sizes I felt confident that it would work. I rented a S and a M when my non maternity size is XS. The small was perfect!! The flowy nature of the dress was comfy cozy and easy to move in. I got so many compliments I almost wished I owned this one so I can wear it again! Measurements given on this review are my 6 month maternity and non maternity measurements. The only number that changed wile pregnant was my waist.

Great dress for a summer wedding
Size worn: XS
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Wedding
The dress fit well and I got lots of compliments on it at my friend's wedding. I almost belted it, but didn't because it seemed like too much with my jewelry too. The only problem was my husband noticed a little stain on the dress before we left for the wedding. The small was too big and baggy on me so I had to wear the XS (with the stain). Thankfully it wasn't too noticable though, but that was a little disappointing. I love how the dress isn't too tight and is flowy so it hides any tummy (especially after eating all those hor d'eurves before dinner!

Great drapery to dress, fun color, really easy to wear. I opted for large earrings and no necklace and that worked well (although I liked the no earrings/necklace look, too). Caution - while the dress is more than roomy and I could have worn the S, the length was too short for me to do so. I am 40 and a little paranoid about dressing like I am 20. I got many compliments on the dress. And, this was the best retail experience ever. I am just mad I was not a company founder/investor! THANK YOU RTR! I will never buy a dress again!

Great dress, but not for me...
Size worn: S
Overall fit: Small
Rented for: Wedding
This dress worked for the occasion, however I don’t think I would rent it again. The draping made me look like I had no shape. In retrospect, I think I should have gotten something that cinched at the waist. The color was good, but it is not as vibrant as it looks in the pictures…it looked like it had been worn several times. The lining underneath also wanted to ride up, and I kept having to pull it down. The size XS fit me better through the chest and hips, but the skirt was VERY short. The XS was also uncomfortably tight under my armpit, so I went with the Small instead. It is a great dress, I just don't think it was the right one for me.

Tons of compliments on this dress, especially with the necklace (also RTR). Was just an inch or so too tight around the opening for my shoulders, so wide-shouldered ladies might want to order a size up to be safe. The rest of the fit was perfect.

Great little dress for a fancy occasion! It was comfortable, not too short, and was still able to wear a regular bra, just removed one strap. Like others said, it was easy to dance in and stood out in a sea of dark colors. I did gold accessories, but easily could have done a lot of different things with it. In that way, it's really versatile - you can dress up or down or for the occasion.

Great dress overall! Great color for the summer, extremely vibrant and looks great with a tan. He material was a little heavier expected but still very nice. I'm usually a medium but it was out of stock so I went with a small and large. The small was a little too short on me, and the large was just a tad roomier than what I wanted, but still looked great !

"Hello. Gorgeous. goddess."
Size worn: M
Overall fit: Large
Rented for: Formal Affair
Those were the words of my date when I walked into the room, and it blew me away. I definitely felt the part! Details - I ordered the M and the S; I would have ordered the L with the M but it wasn't available. Other reviewers reported the dress being a little larger than typical, so I wasn't too worried but knew I could do an emergency swap if needed. The M was perfect and fit like it was cut for me. The dress is heavier in weight but felt great on. I loved the dramatic draping and way it moved when I walked and danced. The cut is short and shows a lot of leg, but not too much at all. The color was perfect for a late summer cocktail formal gala, and wow, did I get compliments all night. After some back and forth, I went with gold accessories to go with the "Greek goddess" feel and pulled my hair into a loosely curled side updo over the bare shoulder. This was my second RTR experience, and it was as excellent as the first!

A great dress at 6 months pregnant!
Size worn: M
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Formal Affair
A comfortable, roomy dress to wear while 6 months pregnant at a formal company gala. I normally wear a small, but went a size up to M to make more room for the belly. The small fit too, but the belly lifted the dress a bit so that it was shorter than I would have liked. I received a ton of compliments, especially about the color b/c a lot of women were wearing black that night. Fabric had nice weight to it, and didn't cling awkwardly. Great rental price, both dresses came in great condition,, and delivery was on time as usual!

PERFECT dress as a bridesmaid in my best friend's wedding!
Size worn: S
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Wedding
I ordered the XS and the S, but found the S fit better in the underarms. The dress was so flattering and I got a ton of compliments. The material is thick, but I still found it suitable in 90 degree Florida-summer weather (granted, I wasn't standing in the sun for hours on end - it was a quick outdoor ceremony). Great quality dress. Fits true to size. Length was conservative, but still flirty (I like to call this "clexy" = classy/sexy). I absolutely loved it!
