High neck, very appropriate yet cute. I have a larger chest and the way the buttons fell meant there was a pretty gaping hole at chest level - just safety pin and you'll be fine. 

Worked for a casual office day. There are obvious gaps between buttons when worn – my chest is really nothing to brag about, so this will probably be an issue for other people. 

Pros: the print and color is beautiful, the silk fabric high quality, I liked the overall cut (a-line skirt, strong shoulder, pussy bow)

Cons: I found the fit very small, less in terms of dress sizing (although it was quite slim through the bust and waist, and the shoulders are extremely narrow), more in terms of it fitting as if it were petite sizing - the sleeves are super short, the skirt length is very short, and the waist fits quite high. 

I would rent again but might try the small, and I almost never size up for dresses

This was a beautiful print for Fall, I wore it at least 5 times! Like other reviewers, I found the chest area tight.  I'm a 34C, and I had to wear a bralette to minimize any extra padding, even then I noticed one of the buttons had popped open a couple of times, fortunately the bow covers that area, but safety pins or fashion tape may be useful.  I originally wanted the small, but it was unavailable so I took a chance with the XS.  It fit well in all other areas, and hint: there is a side zipper which is hidden very well, I didn't notice it was there until the second time I wore it (and the first time was a struggle to get in and out of!)

This is one of those dresses that might not get your attention right away. When it arrived, I wasn't sure about it on the hanger, but I put it on and I absolutely loved the dress. It is very flattering. The bow on the front is super cute. A bit conservative, but as other reviewers mentioned,  the fabric opens a bit between the buttons, but I am a 32 D (sometimes DD,) so perhaps girls with a smaller chest won't have that problem. Although, The dress is a bit snug on the upper body (a bit tight on the shoulders.) In the waist, I had room  and it still gave me a nice silhouette. I felt a belt wasn't needed. Some mentioned about the sleeves feeling a bit short. I have long arms and the sleeves didn't bother me at all. Fabric is great for warm weather. It is light and airy. I wore this dress with red flats with straps around the ankles and the overall look was very flirtatious. Perfect for a party, a date, work or just because. Have fun with it! 

You can't really tell from this pic but the front has buttons and they are too widely spaced, such that you could see my chest if you were looking from the side. Fortunately. The bow hanging down covered the gap but this might present a problem for bustier girls. Also, it has shoulder pads which I thought looked a little odd at first. Otherwise, loved this dress! Would rent again.

I was so sad sending this back. It's fun and adorable! The front buttons are trouble. Have a safety pin and wear a tank underneath. 

This dress fit well and moved well. The side zipper allows for a pretty silhouette. I had to tape the front so the bust wouldn't separate but it wasn't snug. 

It was a bit loose but that made it very comfortable! Lovely flower pattern, the pinks really stood out. There are shoulder pads which I wished I could have removed but I do think gave it a more designer-y look that I'm guessing many would love!

I wore this dress on vacation (at night at a resort in the tropics) just to have something with me that wasn't my usual. I thought the dress was pretty plain from looking at it online, so I was surprised when at least 5 people complimented me throughout the resort that night! 

I am between a 2 and 4 and thought the XS might be a bit too small. It fit well in the waist, arms, but the bust area was a bit tight with a 34b lightly padded bra. If it weren't for the ties that hang down, the gaps between my buttons would have shown. 

I wore this with a belt to give myself more of a waist, but it wasn't really needed with this style. Great dress overall, and I'm looking forward to wearing it on a date before I send it back :)

The dress is true to size and fits very well! I loved it and felt beautiful & feminine. Just beware if you have a huge bust bc there are buttons in front and might gap in-between. I am in between a 34 C & 34D (wore 34 D BRA) & it just fit in chest area. 

Love this and it's perfect for work! I received so many compliments as I usually do when I rent through RTR with my unlimited subscription :) Thanks RTR! 

I hate super floral dresses, this was different. Didn't Burton over my 34DD boobs (I did wear with a cami, not shown in pic). I added the belt because didn't love the way it laid on my waist. Girls with long arms be careful. I have super short arms and was barely long enough for me. Overall did like the dress. 

Really liked this dress - I wore it to work but could easily be more of a brunch with friend dress. Very lightweight- is probably be more likely to rent again in fall or spring. I was not expecting shoulder pads, but they did provide a little more structure. Cute dress! 

This dress is super cute! I didn't have any of the fit issues that other people noted. The dress fit perfectly (although it does have shoulder pads - but they aren't noticeable once on!) and was very flattering. The material is lighter but was still comfortable to wear to a party in February. Length and style make it completely appropriate for work too! Would definitely rent again - might be my favorite rental!

Love it. Was able to wear it out of the box because it wasn't wrinkled. Loved the bow and shoulder pads. 

The over all fit was good except for the bust. I had to safety pin it to keep the space between the buttons closed. Im a 36D however which maybe more of my issue than the dress. 

Perfect spring dress with light and easy silk and beautiful rich colors and flower design. I rented this for a vacation in Napa. I paired it with boots and a gray cardigan for when it got a little chilly. The bow at the top was so fun and I absolutely adore the comfort and style and material of this dress. It's a little tight in the hips for me, but true to size. I'm a solid size 10 and the large for great. 

I'm a suckered for a dress with long sleeves. I paid this with brown, pointed flats and loved the look!  This is a really flowy fabric, but it is snug around the bust - and I'm not even big chested. I easily could have hulked right out of the top. And...it's got shoulder pads. That was a surprise! Either way, this was reallyour cute, and I only wish I would have ordered the large.

Loved renting this dress. Wore for Thanksgiving and it was a hit! The fabric is so gorgeous and the fit was super flattering - now I want to rent everything from The Kooples!! 

I tried this dress for work with booties and black tights. It is the perfect length for the office, but still had a pretty print!

loved this dress! I sized up just in case since I have large shoulders/upper arms, but a medium would have been fine! True to size, stylish, and cute for winter or spring!

Really adorable dress, the fabric was very light and soft and the pattern was very cute.  The arms were a tad short but the rest of the dress was loose and comfortable. 

I really liked this dress but the chest was tight. Maybe I should have gone with the small but everything else about it was great. The front tie covered the pulled fabric but it was enough to make me self-conscience anyway.

Loved this dress but it definitely ran small across the busy and through arms. Ended up wearing a tank underneath and not buttoning. 

I loved this dress! It fit perfectly and I received many compliments.
