I LOVED this dress, even though initially I didn't consider it to be my style. The silk fabric, the gorgeous print, and the beautiful lace detail all make for a perfect summer dress. And then I threw a black leather moto jacket over it later in the afternoon and it looked even cooler. The top lace band was a little tight as other reviewers mentioned, but I didn't find it oppressively so. I usually wear a 4 but sized up to a 6 and it fit nicely. Bottom line: RENT IT!

I wore this dress to a wedding rehearsal dinner. I was 3 months postpartum and it was nice and loose around the waist. I received several compliments and loved wearing it. 

I was thrilled to get this dress in the mail for a late summer, inside/outside wedding. The pattern is great and the tiered style of the dress accentuates a smaller top half and hides anything around the stomach that you might want to hide. Also, I loved the black lacey decorative hem. The black lace was a little floppy but it didn't really bother me. I almost got a 12 because sometimes in dresses feel a little tight on my back, but the 10 was perfect and comfortable and I had PLENTY of room from the busy down. I got compliments all night. The dress came with almost no wrinkles too. 

I loved this dress! It's not my usual style, but I was early in my pregnancy and wanted to conceal as much as possible. Would definitely rent this one again!

I picked this dress because I wanted a pattern/shape to stand out without being too revealing for a wedding. This was PERFECT. It fit my body so well. I didn't have to wear a bra (holla) AND the under slip was the perfect length to dance worry free. Would rent again! 

I ordered a size 6 and a size 8, I run a bit larger in the chest area so wore the 8 since it was a tad tight across the chest in the 6. Loved this dress!

Beautiful dress that flatters a pear shape. I would say it runs tts however I rented down for my backup and ended up wearing that size only because of the longer straps that aren't adjustable. It was a bit snug in the belly area but fit like a dream on top and no need for a bra!  Bonus points for being fun to dance in! 

This dress is gorgeous. Fits perfect, the only thing that was a little bothersome were the straps. They were a tad loose and would fall occasionally. They are not adjustable, so it was a bit of a pain to have to keep placing them back on my shoulders. I am 5' 8" and the slip under the dress layers came right above my knee. The dress layers covered that and came to about my mid shin. I would rent this again. 

Loved this dress! Flattering fit, beautiful print. Got so many compliments. Ran true to size, wore a 10, for reference I am 5'5", 160 lbs, bust 36C. 

Wore to a summer wedding. Extremely comfortable and not restricting. Would recommend ordering one size up for your backup size. 5'8, 140lbs, 34C, wore size 4

I wore this dress for a date night and also put in NYC. It looked FABULOUS and was so comfortable. Th chest and straps were a bit snug but not uncomfortable and the body of the dress flowed so well! I will definitely rent it again!

This is a wonderful dress with just a couple little flaws. The pattern and silhouette are amazing! I got so many compliments and was pretty comfortable even while running around personal attending for a rainy wedding then dancing all night. It was a little longer than I thought it would be but it didn't bother me at all. It was a little bit small in the chest. The size 4 fit better in the body but would not zip because of the chest area. The size 6 still fit great though. The lace at the top did not lay flat no matter how much I steamed or taped it, but I got over it. The straps did fall a lot, but that didn't bother me much either. Overall, this was a great rental and I was so happy with it! 

This dress was super comfortable. The straps were the only issue, often falling down as others had commented- they are not adjustable. I feel you could easily size down in the dress. Received many compliments - wasn't stuffy, in fact this was the most comfortable I've been in a dress!

I've been eyeing this piece for a while so when a six became available (finally), I immediately ordered it even though I consistently wear a four in RTR brands. I have never received so many compliments! People I haven't talked to in years we're DM'ing me on Instagram asking where I got the dress. I do recommend going down a size, the straps are long and don't have tighteners. I would have preferred the dress to sit a bit higher up on my chest.  

I could have worn the 10, but the 12 gave me a little bit more breathing room in my rib cage area. I'm 5'5" and the dress was a perfect tea length. Only con I have is to make sure the short underlay is pulled down as it seemed to get scrunched up some. Loved it and would totally recommend this. 

Very comfy! The bottom is sheer and very pretty. More flattering than I thought it was going to be (sometimes shift/straight dresses dont give enough definition, but this one was more fit and slimming). 

Such a great dress. Fit true to size. Comfortable. Got lots of compliments 

I wore this to an outdoor April wedding in Florida. I am obsessed with this dress - the fit, the fabric, the pattern, literally everything. It is so feminine and the lace details are so perfect. I would rent this dress over and over again. 

As you can see, this dress has excellent movement! It's classy yet stylish. I don't lean towards form fitting dress but often find flowy dresses not flattering either. This was perfect. So many compliments!  I was concerned that the straps would break so I had brought extra pins in case. They are very delicate but the rest of the dress is very sturdy. Love the combo of floral, lace and a bit of peek-a-boo. Lenght was perfect but if you're short might not have same look (I'm 5'8") Would def rent again!!!

I love Love Love this dress. Perfect for a night out in Maui, a sexy dinner and a boozy brunch. I paired with suede booties and a leather moto to go for a rock chic look. You can't go wrong with this flowy way to wear piece. 

I am a size 6 and the size 4 fit perfectly. It was an easy, feminie dress. I loved it and got tons of compliments. I wore this to a rehearsal dinner in Febuary. 

Beautiful dress, perfect for vacation! I also wore it on top of a black turtle neck cotton top here in chilly nyc 

I got so many compliments on this dress. The material was perfectly light but also felt luxe. I loved the lace details and I had no issue with the length of the straps. 

Such a cool dress. Only downside was that im short and the straps were not adjustable so they slipped a bit. Still enjoyed it though!

This dress is a dream! Perfect for all seasons, depending on how you style it. I rented this for unlimited and wore it twice: first to an anniversary dinner with my boyfriend in December and it worked well for a semi-fancy restaurant, and then a week later on a trip to Punta Cana in 80 degree weather. The lacing around the chest is very tight (I'm a 34B and it was snug) and is not flattering for your boobs, but the overall look is not really about that. I would suggest sizing up if you're looking for a more flowing, relaxed look. Definitely recommend!

This dress is gorgeous. Extremely well made, beautiful colors, and fit like a dream. I ordered a 4 because a 2 wasn't available, but I'm glad I got the 4. The straps were long but I tied them. I wore this for "formal night" on a cruise and got a lot of compliments.

Wore it to an outdoor wedding in about 60 degree weather and I was fine. I am a 34DD so I was worried about the fit of the top- but it worked as long as i didn't wear a bra. I styled it with a jacket and booties (reception was in grass). The fit was true to size. As you can see the bottom is sheer but it gives the dress a bit of depth. I would recommend this to someone looking for a comfortable, cute and somewhat edgy dress for an event.

I love this dress.  The layers are really interesting and unique, and the material is very soft and light. Perfect for a wedding or work event (I was working at a wedding!). Would look better with heels because of the tea length, but flats were just fine.

I wore this dress to a winter rehearsal dinner and absolutely loved it. The fit it perfect and I received lots of compliments about how unique it was. Such a fun length for a cocktail-wear event.

I love love love this dress - it's my favorite rental!!! It falls really nicely -- it's a thin fabric with a beautiful pattern and really nice lace trimming. It fit perfectly - im 5'5 135 lbs, and the 4 fit well. I rented it for my birthday in the fall and it ended up being a much colder day than I anticipated. I wore it with a leather jacket, black boots, and black tights, and it definitely worked as a colder weather outfit (though the material is thin)! I tried it with a blazer and that didnt work -I would say if you want to wear it with a jacket my recommendation is a shorter one! 

Very nice dress, beautiful print. Runs small across the chest. 

absolutely loved this dress. I had to pin the straps, but it was so worth it. It is comfortable and the drape of the top does not require that you wear a bra. I've never received so many compliments on a dress. I know many other subscribers wore it in summer, but it was perfect for a fall wedding paired with dark berry lipstick. 

This dress is gorgeous in person, and unique. Many reviewers said the straps were too long, but I didn't have this problem since I have broad shoulders. Nice that you can wear a simple strapless bra with it. The slip underneath was around mid-thigh length and bottom was sheer. I'm between a size 4 and 6, and the 6 fit well. Would recommend sizing up for backup. 

I wore this to work since it did not arrive on time for the event I wanted to wear it to. It wouldn't have worked anyway because the only available size was an 8 and that zipped well everywhere besides my big bazookas. I wore a jacket over it so it wasn't a hassle and I paired them with booties. I like the embroidered hem and neckline. The straps are really thin and they do dig in a little into the shoulders. I would not be using my unlimited slot for this dress again. 

The dress was extremely comfortable and flattering. I received a ton of compliments on it! The straps are a little loose but the bust of the dress is tight enough that I wasnt worried about it falling down. If I could purchase this dress I would! Absolutely would recommend 

Super comfortable dress, straps weren't too long as some had mentioned ( at least on me). Length was not midi on me (around 5'3") but still loved it.

Fit - It is tight int he chest, but the materials is light enough to be worn without a bra, which created more space and comfort. The tightness definitely loosened as the night went on and it was incredibly comfortable overall.
Pros - Everything. The color, comfort, flow
Cons - The zipper is stubborn - I needed an extra set of hands
