Soo small in waist
I could barely button it up to wear. I got a lot of compliments though. I think always size up in farm rio

Beautiful fabric. Odd fit.
It’s very tight in the waist and then flares out with ruffles in a not flattering way. Also I’m 5’2” and even with 2” wedges, it was dragging on the floor so not for petites. Also the v in the middle is too baring to wear without a bralet IMO

Loved it and wore multiple times including Thanksgiving. I'm very petite and it was small on me. The buttons pulled close it. I liked it snug but a little bigger probably looks better

Stunning but not for petites
This dress is amazing. The fabric is so great and the fit is perfect if you’re tall. The reason petite can’t wear it is the one shoulder is about 3 inches too long so that just doesn’t stay up on us. I was so disappointed I couldn’t wear it.

Love the fit and look
I love this dress. It’s long on me and I like that look. Oversized all over for petites which I enjoyed. Only thing is the fabric is so light that it can’t be a winter dress. There is no lining and even thought it’s faux leather look, it’s just a sheer fabric. The color is great for fall.

Stunning but tight in waist
I adore this dress and will rent again in a larger size. It’s just really tight in the waist which is a seam. It’s just perfect Saloni look of different and feminine.

I love this dress and rented it repeatedly for a year.
Great work dress. The color and fit are stunning and so flattering. The slit is high but I'm short so it looks fine. The color is a great punch and so pretty. I've rented it for a year now and notice this last time that there's some fading in the color and fabric isn't as crisp. Rent it a day you want to feel really confident at work.

Fit and fabric are beautiful
I've rented this multiple times in spring and fall for work things-- added black jacket or just the dress. It's so pretty and fits so well. I just love the heavy silk and the fabric. I only send back to get dry cleaned!

Pretty colors but see through fabric
The colors are so pretty but it's totally sheer - I wore it to work with a camisole under it but I still felt a little bare and also was freezing. Probably better to wear in personal life.

The jacket I didn't know I had to have in my life
I randomly rented this since I'm on lockdown and don't need much. Well I'm seriously obsessed with this jacket in style, fabric and fit. I wear it for all my "essential" trips while locked down and it fits so cute (if you're short) and has a great fit and nylon fabric blocks wind or cold stores. I just love it and will be keeping it until life goes back to normal !

Heavy leather bag.
I wanted this to be my every day bag becusae I love bags that have shoulder and crossbody straps. But this leather and hardware is so heavy, I was dragging it around like a lug. It's a beautiful color and hardware but too clunky.

Second time renting these
I really like the way these fit for petites with some booty ;). But I don't like the way they have those markings on the denim at the hip area which makes me look wider at the worst part. I really don't understand why denim companies keep doing those scrapes- especially on high waisted - because defeats the purpose of looking like our legs are longer. But the jeans are comfortable and nice length

I loved this bag so much that I kept it for months !
The bag looks like real croc and the hardware is gorgeous. I got so many compliments because people think it's much more expensive than it is. I wore it for everything - day to night. The only thing that is a problem for some is the crossbody strap is very short. I'm petite and it was short on me, so might annoy taller women to have the bag sit so high on their bodies. This is by far my favorite bag ever from RTR.

Stunning quality designer dress
I loved everything about this dress -- fit, fabric, style. It's incredible quality and style is conservative. I just felt like I was in a really good designer dress and people noticed it. It ran small so I sized up and glad I did.

LOVE this dress quality and style but very small
This is my second time renting this dress because the quality and tailoring and style are just impeccable. I love this new brand RTR has been carrying now -- Toccin. However, I am petite and this dress is tight on me in the waist even when I size up to a 2. There is no give in the waist so I just suck it up and feel a little tight in the seam but it looks great. Also the length is short on even me-- and I'm short -- so know that going into it. But I'll wear anything Toccin so I hope they keep getting more!

Love all saylor but maybe my favorite
I love the stress so much that I rented it twice. Actually maybe three times! The fabric, style / just beautiful. Perfect for work. Note that it's short for me and I'm short. It was also very small so I had to size up to fit into it. But it's really gorgeous and I got a ton of compliments.

Super quality and style
This dress is why designer clothes are so expensive. The fabric is amazing and the style is perfect. One caveat for petites is that the sleeves are about 2 inches long. I just folded them back into cuffs and it looks fine, but clearly made for taller women.

Holy grail dress for me
I've rented this one and the red version over and over for almost two years. The fabric is amazing quality. The color is gorgeous pop. The short style for petites is great (but not mini short.) This dress goes to show why designer clothes are so expensive compared to regular clothes. Quality shows.

Whoa this is small
I'm petite and this was SKIN TIGHT in every part and I couldn't even button the top button. It looks cute on hanger and love the style so may try again but at least one or even two sizes up to fit right.

Open back on conservative dress?
I didn't click though all the pics to see this dress is totally open in the back, which is so odd because it's such a conservative style and color. And the fabric is really thin so there's no way to go bra less in any wear this anywhere.

Happy summer mini skirt
I grabbed this in the store without trying on and so glad I did. It's just so adorable and fits great for petites and such a cute quality fabric. And usually pockets on hips make me look wide but these are more in front so worked great. Just FYI , the waist is REALLY small so size up if you want a more comfortable style.

Highest quality fabric and fit
I have rented this repeatedly for over a year in the red and blue. It's an incredible thick fabric that is clearly designer quality. The fit is so flattering to hide parts I don't like but skims the body to have a nice fitted look. The color is a very confident vibrant red. Once these dresses are no longer for rent, I will buy them for sure.

I have kept this all winter! It's so cute to have a puffy coat with a wool exterior.
It's definitely short-- and I'm short -- so it will hit above your top. The rest of the coat is perfect sizing -- enough space for a sweater underneath but not feeling bulky, even though it's a puffy coat. It's SO warm. It's just a great idea to make a boring puffy coat look like a wool coat - or rather to combined them. Also I like the high neck because I don't need a scarf. I get compliments from strangers.

Back is totally bare
Before you rent this, make sure to know that the entire back is open. So it's really cute but not appropriate for work or for any place you don't want to show that much skin. Also the skirt part has a lot of fabric and is very puffy, but you can't tell from the photo.

Very tight
I got this for a date but it just was so restrictive and tight, I didn't feel good in it so sent it back. Not sure if it runs small or the fabric has no give which makes it feel uncomfortable.

Strangers stopped me to ask the brand
Wow better than expected. It's seersucker so it's light and breezy. But the waist and straps give it structure to be fitted and flattering. The shorts part are a little bit long for me. I wore wedges to try to lengthen. I'd rent again in heartbeat.

Second summer I've rented this for a party because it it tailored and fits perfectly, while most RTR rompers are too blousy or baggy to flatter petites. People both times gave tons of compliments

Love the light dress for summer. Got tons of compliments at outside church service. Lining is so thin that I barely felt it. Only note to other petites, length hit below my knee so need to wear with heels.

I felt like Kate Middleton on royal tour of India
This is the prettiest dress - fabric, loose fit, soft and comfortable and feminine. I rented for a party and then wore to church the next day. I usually wear solids and sheath dresses so it was so refreshing to be in a more bohemian style and colorful fabric. For petites like me, it does overwhelm a little bit, so I added a belt to give it some structure.
