Great addition to my typical "LBD" rotation. Felt really well and was a great breathable material. Loved this for an easy work --> dinner or drink transition. Saved to rent again in the spring as the material would also work!

The fabric feels awesome. As others say, this dress is sized very weird. The hips are tight and the dress rides up as you walk. As the dress rides up, the zipper also bunches--doesn't look cute. Would look best with a long blazer hiding everything. 

I have been wanting to rent this for awhile and was kind of disappointed in the fit. My booty got in the way! I loved it so I still wore it out but it bunched in my midsection where my waist gets pretty little. Not for the hourglass shapes unfortunately! 

I'm glad I listened to the reviews I'm usually a 4 sometimes a 2 and the 6 fit perfect. Only reason I didn't give it a 5 star was because I felt super young in the polka dots-- otherwise great dress 

Loved the fabric and how this looked. Could never wear again, I struggled with tight sleeves all day, was miserable. Was a little tight in chest and waist but hardly noticed, was focused on how fat my arms felt. 

Adorable and good length too for a tallish person. I thought this was v flattering and comfortable too. Only trick is that there's a seam/where the ruffle starts that's a tiny bit constricting/hits you in a weird place. If you have bigger thighs or a booty it could be a little tricky? I thought it was a hit for every day

Cute dress! The fabric was a bit thinner than expected and felt even a little "cheap" for what the listed retail price is, but the polka dot print was very fun and unexpected. The dress fits well - only  downside is that the ruffle hem maybe fits a bit tight/weird, but only noticeable when I kneel down. Overall, I received a lot of compliments and the dress fit like a glove. Cute for work or for a cocktail hour or easter type special occasion. 

I'm usually a 4 and had to wear a 6 for this and it was still kinda tight. Cute little flair on bottom of dress

This dress is a fantastic work dress. The length is perfect and the fabric is really comfortable and nice. My only issues are with the fit. Definitely size up, especially if you have broad shoulders, arms or hips. It's quite tight in those areas but loose around the middle. It looked ok on me, but I couldn't raise my arms fully. 

I rented this for a bridal shower but didn't end up wearing it. Really nice fabric and silhouette — not too tight or revealing at all, and an appropriate length for a lot of events. I'm pretty short, and it was knee-length on me.

Fabric was kind of thick and stretchy but seemed good quality, cute style but did run a little small. Not like super small and I am currently carrying some weight on my hips/booty/belly so meh maybe at two way road... anywho didnt wear because it wasnt super flattering for me but would rent when I win the war with my tummy/my love of cheese and carbs. 

Not a fan of the fit on this. It was too big in the waist and the extra fabric just sat there in wrinkles and the shoulders kind of felt like they were hovering above my body. Meanwhile, it was too small around my butt and kept riding up. The ruffle was often what was covering my butt from being exposed. It fit a mess, and I don't know whether to say it runs small or big- small below the waist and big above the waist, which altogether was a recipe for disaster for my pear shape. And fit aside, it's a very basic, boring dress. It looks like something you could get at your local Banana Republic. RTR should have more special items.

I rented this from the Chicago store. When the stylist pulled it I was skeptical because it looked kind of boxy on the hanger. I'm also not usually a fan of polka dots but once on, this dress is pretty great. It hugs the curves and the ruffle on the bottom is a fun touch. My one complaint is that the material isn't all that forgiving so if you're self conscious about your mid section you might want to pass on this one.

My review for this dress will read as follows

Adorable dress with comfortable fabric but the scratch on my neck is from adjusting myself 15 times and this photo is taken at the highest point I can currently lift my arm
Seriously though is you have wide shoulders or anything resembling a bust, you want to rethink this one. It’s very comfortable. I sized up and it’s still an awkward fit in bust and arms. They are quite tight. I recommend for the small busted and petite ladies.
