Compliments all night!
Size worn: 6
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Formal Affair
Could have worn the 4 but decided to wear the 6. Not a big difference in the size. Loved the pockets and the volume of the skirt! Might be a bit short without stockings but the fabric made it a great winter cocktail dress for semi formal event.

10 Year High Reunion
Size worn: 6
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Party
I wore this dress to my 10 year high school reunion. It was at the end of November and the material was perfect. It was a little thicker, great for a winter event, with some shimmer! I received a lot of compliments. Fit like a glove and I felt great all night. The pleats were very flattering and laid nicely. I was also able to wear a regular bra. I would love to own this dress.

I had my bridesmaid wear this dress for my wedding and they made it look fab!
Size worn: None
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Wedding
Not only is RTR amazing because they had everyone's size, but this dress was perfect for our October wedding, not too heavy or too light for the season. For modesty I had the girls put a light gray cami underneath the dress, which didn't effect the "cuteness" of the dress at all. And it looked great on all body sizes!
In the pictures, it had sort of the blue tint to the dress, but in person it appeared much more gray!
I loved this dress so much for them and they received so many compliments! Everyone kept asking where I picked my bridesmaids dresses from! RTR has scored once again! I'm sure I will start a new trend with all my friends ordering their bridesmaids dresses from here. Get ready RTR! ;-)

The material is thick, so it worked well for a winter event. It has a nice shimmer to it without being too much for classy subdued event. It hit just above the knee for me at 5'-0".

Super cute & flattering, literally had a compliment the second I walked in the door!

Overall fit: True to Size

Rented this dress for a last minute wedding with my bff and couldn't have been happier. The waist and skirt flair hide my post baby belly and the chest fit great. The skirt felt a bit short, maybe because it flaired out, but I put on a pair of black sheer pantyhose and some cute black maryjane pumps and voila! I walked in, checked my coat and before I could turn around one of the girls at the catering hall ran up to say she loved my dress & asked where I got it from.

It was perfect. Got tons of complements. Very flattering. And comfortable too!
Size worn: 4
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Wedding
I rented two dresses and this one was actually my back up, but I loved it so much that I ended up wearing both of them. I wore this to the church portion of the wedding that I was attending. It was perfect. I paired it with a cardigan since it was a little chilly, but the fabric is heavier so it was perfect for fall in MI - it could easily be dressed up or down. It is shinier than in the pics, which I liked. It fit great, and I loved the pockets.
I usually wear a 4 or a 6, but was only able to order the 4 in this dress and it worked. The cut is very flattering, and since it doesn't hug your hips/butt, I didn't need the larger size.
This was my first rental, and I was very pleased with this rental and the entire process!! I'll be renting again! :)

Pretty Material, Flattering Shape and Pockets
Size worn: 8
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Wedding
I wore this dress to a wedding. The material is thick but comfortable, and the dress feels well made. There is more shimmer than in the photo on RTR but still subtle enough to not feel too flashy. From a fit perspective, I would say you could size down unless you have a medium/large bust. I had to wear my regular size in order to zip up around the chest. The V-cut was low but not scandalous. The cut is very flattering, and the pockets are a lot of fun. I added a necklace for a pop of color and a black shrug. I received numerous compliments at the wedding, many from strangers. I would rent this dress and designer again.

Great for an indoor party/winter time event...
Size worn: 10
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Party
The dress fit very well. I wore the smaller size I ordered without needing to wear a bra. The fabric was pretty heavy for summer time. If I rented again it would be for a NYE or Christmas party since the wool-like feel was kind of scratchy during the summer. Overall, a solid rental for a country club rehearsal dinner.

Very fun and flattering dress. It would suit a bigger chest since the straps are thick and the neckline is low. It had just enough sparkle to get attention but not too much to put it over the top.

The dress is extremely flattering, but it runs a little big. It was little looser than I would have liked, but it definitely still worked. I don't think anyone noticed that it was a little loose from the waste up but me.

Loved This Dress
Size worn: 10
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Wedding
This dress was perfect for my figure - it cinched just above the wait and flared out just the right amount. The dress is more metallic then it appears in the image, but I liked it more in person, it makes the dress a bit more formal. It also is a little bit more low cut then I thought but overall I loved it and received compliments on it all night!

It fit perfect, snug around the wait and flairs out at the bottom of the waist. The neck isn't too low and fit my A cup chest well! Length was just perfect. The only negative is the straps tend to irritate the front of my shoulders, but besides that, PERFECT!

Celebrating Christmas!
Size worn: 4
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Party
There weren't any reviews when I rented this dress for my Christmas party, but now there are clearly some themes. I have a small bust but am currently nursing, so they "grow" through the night. By the end, I had a full on cleavage which is surprising because the dress isn't terribly low cut. If you have a full bust, it would be too much.
The dress is also a little fuller on the bottom than the photo. I think this has to do with the pockets.
Both of those things being said, I LOVED the dress. The bottom wasn't too full in my opinion and I don't have a large chest, so the first "issue" didn't matter to me. I had a baby 9 weeks ago so it hid all the parts that needed to be hidden. It had a nice shimmer to it and I received a ton of complements. It was very flirty and the perfect party dress!

I rented this dress a couple weeks ago for my friend's bridal shower, and I received many compliments on it. The skirt part was a little fuller than I expected and it was a big longer than I expected as well (I'm 5'3"), but the top part fit great and it made my bust look bigger than normal. Tried to do a photoshoot by Lake Michigan but the weather was awful. See pics below. but don't make fun:) All in all, I would give it 4 out of 5 stars!

Shimmery!
Size worn: 6
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Party
Amazing cleavage, with extra flare in the skirt. No need for a necklace -- go with statement earrings or a headband. This is the perfect party dress for a pregnant gal. (The dress name even seems to speak to that.) In real life, it fits a little poofier and bustier than in the photos here. That worked for my condition. I'm normally a 4 in Shoshanna; this has a fairly tight rib cage/bust area, so I went with the 6 for comfort. However, Shoshanna in general runs slightly larger than other brands.

The fact that you get two sizes calmed my fears about renting a dress and it not fitting but I had no problems with the size I normally wear. Naturally I dress pretty conservative so I was also a bit concerned about the neckline on this dress especially with the event I was attending however it was not an issue. I had so many compliments I will definitely be using RTR again!

Not for busty women
Size worn: 8
Overall fit: Small
Rented for: Wedding
The dress was not as flattering as I had hoped. It also did not have enough room in the 8 or the 10 for my chest- even though the waist was loose. The length was also a little too long for my height- it just looked a little frumpy. This would be a great dress for a tall, smaller chested woman. Luckily I rented a back up dress- which I LOVED.

Perfect holiday dress!
Size worn: 8
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Party
I rented this dress to wear for my husband's company Christmas party, and it was perfect. In fact, I loved it so much that I wore it to the party on Friday, and then to the symphony on Saturday! Short enough to be fun but not too short, sparkly but not in a disco-ball kind of way. The cut was very flattering, and the pockets are huge! I received compliments on it all night, both nights.
The color reads more dark gray than silver in person, but the metallic accents in the fabric give it just the right amount of shimmer. It's painful to send this one back!

Great dress! However.....
Size worn: 2
Overall fit: True to Size

Dress is beautiful. Shiny, thick fabric.
I ordered sizes 0 and 2. Size 0 was just a little bit tight but doable without the bra. I ended up wearing size 2 with the bra. You do not have to use strapless bra since the cut in the back is not that low.
The "however" part: according to the dress's size , the length is 36". That is not true. It was a big surprise for me. The dress is quite short-32 and 1/2 inches from the shoulder to the hem. Keep this in mind!

pretty enough, but...
Size worn: None
Overall fit: True to Size
Rented for: Wedding
This just did not have the wow factor I was going for, nor was the fit flattering on me. It looked a little more gray in person rather than silver. The 6 was a little snug around the rib cage, and the 8 too roomy. The fabric is very thick, so the band below the bodice made me look even thicker. I think this would be very cute on a petite person with a large bust, but the waist hit me too high, making the poof look like I was hiding a belly pooch. Not for the long torso-ed. Love the pockets.

Size worn: 6
Overall fit: Small

Super fun dress, perfect for a party and a nice alternative to a lbd. Very nice fabric with just a bit of shimmer to it. I have a fairly full bust, so it was a bit snug up top and I opted to wear the bigger size. It's fairly low cut in the front, but it's easy to wear a bra with this dress (as long as it plunges fairly low) because of the way it's cut and the little internal strings to hold the straps in place.

This dress was gorgeous. The weight of the material made it appropriate for the winter weather, yet it didn't feel too heavy. I loved that the wider straps allowed me to wear a real bra, and, while the neckline was low, it was not so low as to be inappropriate for a family event. The skirt was pretty short, but its fullness kept it tasteful. Loved this dress and will definitely rent it again!

Overall fit: True to Size

I wore this to a country club christmas party and felt great. It fit true to size, I wore my usual size 2. It is a rather full skirt, which I liked for concealing my stomach. It is also rather low cut, so it may not be appropriate for bigger busted women going to a conservative event. It is a thick fabric with some sparkle, so probably better suited to the fall and winter.

I wore those to my company's holiday party and it was perfect for the occasion. That said, I wish that I had paid better attention to the prior reviews, because it really does show quite a bit of cleavage -- and if I had another option, I probably would have gone with that. Also, as the other reviewers pointed out, the skirt is more full than pictured, and I think is a bit unflattering. It's a super cute dress, but would prob. look best on someone tall and slim -- and while I fit the bill for tall, not so much on the slim.

the dress is lovely in person - nice tweed and cute silver shine. however, it was a little big for me. i'm a pretty standard size 8 and it was boxy. also, know that the skirt is QUITE full. it was more full than i expected (and i like full skirts).
