Eye-catching dress!
I'd been waiting for an occasion to rent this dress since I first saw it, and when I had a family bat mitzvah to attend, it was the perfect choice. The dress fits true to size, though I will say that the pencil-skirt type bottom of the dress made getting in and out of my car a bit difficult and left little leg room. Otherwise, it was perfect - a great color, fit comfortably across my arms and chest (which is always tough for me since I'm very broad), and was super flattering. I got loads of compliments!

Perfect dress for a winter wedding
I rented this dress for a wedding on Thanksgiving weekend and it was fantastic. The 10 fit perfectly for me and the color and pockets were a great addition that made it stand out. The material is a bit heavier than I thought it would be, but that worked to my advantage since the wedding was outdoors in a chilly November afternoon. Id definitely Rent this one again, especially if I had a holiday party or something as its nice and festive without being overbearing.

Perfect bridal shower dress!
I rented this dress for my best girlfriend's bridal shower and it was wonderful. Unfortunately there was an issue it's my order and the size 10 wasn't available, so I wore the 12 and while it was a bit roomier than I'd prefer, it was nicer than the replacement dress RTR sent in size 10. The dress was still super flattering and I got loads of compliments, especially about the pockets! Had the 10 been available, it would have fit just right but this is an otherwise fab dress for any kind of semi formal occasion.

Perfect summer party dress!
I rented this dress for my bridal shower this last weekend and it was just perfect! The dress itself was a nice material - light enough to not feel too heavy on one of the hottest days in NY, yet heavy enough to fit and smooth my curves beautifully. I typically wear a 10, but this dress is a bit tight around the bust/chest without much stretch, so I ended up wearing the 12 to have a bit more room and comfort and it was a huge hit! I would absolute rent this dress again.

Perfect dress for an outdoor spring wedding
I rented this dress for a family wedding in April in Florida and it was great! I usually wear a 10 and this fit pretty true to size, the only criticism being that it was just a little too tight around the chest/shoulders - I wear size 36C and have very broad shoulders so it was a bit snug for me, but not noticeably uncomfortable. The high waist and flared skirt were super flattering for my body type and the material wasn't too heavy, which was perfect for an evening wedding in Orlando. Plus, it had pockets! I really liked this dress and would absolutely rent it again.

Great stylist little black dress
I had originally rented a different dress for my sister in law's wedding and found out 2 days before delivery that it was no longer available. Thankfully, RTR offered to send me any other dress of my choosing, so I chose this dress which was most similar in style to the original - I was pleasantly surprised by how much I loved this dress! The size 10 was perfect, fitted enough but also loose enough in the right places to allow for easy movement. I got so many compliments on the dress, it was perfect for a semi-formal evening wedding. I would definitely rent this dress again.

Great dress, even with an added personal touch!
I rented this dress for a family wedding this past weekend and it was a huge hit! I got so many compliments on how beautiful it was, how great the colour was (my date, oddly enough, had a matching blue dress shirt, which was completely unplanned), and how flattering it was on me. I originally ordered the size 10, but thank goodness for the free second size because the ten was just too tight around the chest I couldn't zipper it up comfortably. However, when I put on the 12, it was a bit too loose around the waist, even if it did fit my chest perfectly. So, I put on a black belt to cinch the waist in and it worked out great. Plus, I think it added a little extra something to the dress which would have seemed a bit matronly without a little flair.

This dress was a HUGE hit for a winter wedding! Would definitely rent it again!
I ordered a M and L after reading some of the reviews about the fit and I'm glad I did. I ended up wearing the slip from the L (I couldn't zip the M all the way up because of my breasts and broad back) and the M in the dress itself because the lace is quite stretchy and pliable. I have D cups, so thankfully RTR provided double-sized tape and I definitely needed to use it to keep things in place. Other than that, couples with some pantyhose and black heels, I was extremely comfortable throughout the whole night - moving around, sitting down, eating, etc - in this dress.
