Unlimited is ah-mazing
Such a great deal. I did Unlimited RtR based on a deal/discount and the fact that I had multiple weddings coming up within a 3 month span. It was great, as I didn't have to actually buy a dress for $100+ that I may or may not wear again--plus, I got to wear designer! For in between the weddings, I tried to get as much use of this as I could. Shipping is fast and easy, plus you get to try it on at home with your own accessories. I had no worries when it came to things arriving on time or about having to return items within a certain amount of time. 100% recommend.

Edgy and comfy!
I love the neoprene -- so comfy and felt invincible! I also wore this sans bra and, due to the fabric, felt completely secure! I wore this with a Dannijo necklace, also from RtR. Paired with Madewell black block heel sandals, Madewell asymmetrical skirt, black Topshop leather biker jacket, a black and gold Rebecca Minkoff M.A.C. crossbody, and some dark vampy lip stain :) The outfit was perfect for the Local Natives concert I attended.

Dannijo makes amazing jewelry and this piece lives up to the hype!
Absolutely love this necklace. It's great to dress up a t-shirt and jeans, pair with an evening dress, or wear with equally trendy clothing for a very current vibe. I can't wait to try more Dannijo!

My sister and I ordered these to wear in our hair as the MOHs. So gorgeous and a great touch!
My sister and I wore these in our hair as the MOHs at our other sister's wedding. We looked at purchasing combs etc. but they are so expensive for the little use we would get out of them. Renting this comb was perfect! The close-ups show the pin in my hair (low updo-ish). I included my sister's picture to show with a bridesmaid dress and different hairstyle. It looked fantastic in both of our hairstyles, if I do say so myself :) Will definitely suggest RTR to other brides and bridal parties looking for cool accessories that they don't want to buy or spend a fortune on.

Adorable dress that I ordered as a safe back-up - way too small unfortunately :(
Fit and flare dresses are my fall-back plan as they usually fit. I ordered this as my safety for my sister's rehearsal dinner. My waist and above are pretty small, so I figured a size 2 would work fine or be slightly loose/comfortable. This runs quite small though - I couldn't even zip the garment all the way or do the clasp! I was so sad, as I really wanted to wear the dress. Ended up wearing a Clover Canyon sheath though, which was a hit. Also, just a comment: the skirt was much fuller than I expected due to the tulle. Definitely order at least a size up!

I ordered this for fun to try on with my Unlimited. Very cool but not made for my body type.
This is definitely made for either a tall, thin/not curvy individual or a super petite gal. I didn't realize there would be netting on the cutout--which I think made it feel a little off. There was also netting on the back, which makes sense, but I didn't think of that at the time. Overall it's a very cool garment, but not for my body right now. Also, I have pretty sensitive skin and the sequins definitely left red marks on my body after walking around for a few minutes in my apartment. So if you have sensitive skin, be aware that this may not be for you or you need some sort of magic trick haha. Due to the dress not being sorted for curves of any sort (in my opinion), it was true-to-size/a little big on the top for me, while tight on the bottom. I was trying to avoid that issue with a size 6.

Wore this to my friend's wedding. I am obsessed - so many compliments and so fun to dance in!
The fit of this dress is great - I didn't have to worry about how I looked all night, as it was comfortable and stayed put. The skirt is so fun to dance in - you can scrunch up the tulle underlay to make the skirt fuller - it's not as full as I expected, which I am actually happy about. I was expecting the fabric to have more sheen, however, it is still a gorgeous dress--with pockets (optimal!). My only two cons are barely cons at all: the zipper and back clasp are difficult to do on your own -- luckily I had help. Also, if you are dancing, the top may be / feel slightly restrictive. That didn't stop me though! Overall, my absolute favorite dress! I would recommend it to anyone. If you want a really fun, gorgeous, unique dress to wear, choose this!

I got this for a friend's wedding - didn't wear, but it's such a great dress!!
I absolutely love this dress. Fantastic fit, pockets, and an adjustable panel in the front depending on the look you want. The fabric is thicker than I expected, with a sheen (I envisioned cotton, but this is much better). The only reason I did not wear this dress is because I opted for another dress I rented (Marchesa Notte). I would rent and wear this again in a heartbeat!

Wore this to my sister's rehearsal dinner. I received lots of compliments on the dress!
Pros: Awesome print and cut. Felt classy, fashionable, and sexy at the same time. I personally like the fabric - a great stretch that is a thick, neoprene-like fabric. The print easily masks any lines or overly-tight areas. Cons: A classic issue for me is that dresses are either too large in the waist/top and/or tight on the bottom half. This particular dress was fine up top (possibly just a smidge loose) but tight everywhere else - probably intentionally made that way. I had ordered a medium though thinking I would have some room. I definitely wore spanx to ease my anxiety about the fit. The dress did sometime ride up (mostly in the waist area so it was like a fold) which was kind of annoying. But overall, not any other complaints. Great dress - I love Clover Canyon prints :)
