Cute, old fashioned , country flair
Fit me perfectly and I have athletic ( big muscle ) shoulders and arms. Pattern is soft and pretty. Material will work for fall, winter or this current transition into spring time. Not good for warmer months.

Looked like I was wearing my dad's coat
Alas this was way too big and unflattering. I have big shoulders and this was too big in the shoulders, way too big in the waist and longer than expected. Material and pattern are cute . Warmer than expected. Sent back immediately so I am bummed in this selection

Cute top but runs big
Cute top I wore to a concert with jeans. I have big shoulders and typically debate between getting a medium or a large and I could have sized down in the top. Ran large through shoulders and kept slipping and large through chest

Meh, boring top and not flattering
I was hoping for a more stylish and high quality material from Scott and Soda and was disappointed in this boring and unflattering top. I have large should and have a hard time picking between medium and large. The large was a weird fit and short in the torso. When you tied the bow it really pooched out in the back and required a lot of tugging and adjusting. Big disappointment on this item, I returned and did not wear.

Really cute dress for fundraising event at winery
Cute dress for evening fundraising event at a winery. Lots of compliments. The straps are a little big and slipped down throughout the night which was a bummer. Iw sit designers would stick with adjustable straps . Material was silky and lightweight. Dress is more nave dark blue with black lace trim than fully black.

Cute on-trend top
Rented this for a series of upcoming events at wineries, graduation and around town. Cute top by definitely is cropped and will expose wait if those with longer torso or will rise up when moving around . If you are younger or cool with that then this a cute too. At 51 I elected to wear a cami underneath or wear with high waisted jeans

Absolutely gorgeous
Lovely dress for late afternoon vineyard wedding. Fit perfectly and I was concerned I should ho a size up but the 8 fit great. I have an athletic booty and some me hips but the 8 worked well. Tip to designers, make adjustable straps, your customers will love it . Had some minor slippage with the straps but nothing too big. The print and material are lovely. The ruchet and varied length added some extra interest and fun.

Runs really small
Cute jacket but runs really short like a bolero jacket. I am a medium sized person and the large barely fit and would not close. Runs small in the shoulders and chest . Cute style but I am not sure most regular sized women could wear this . I think this item will get returned a lot and be a disappointment

Ginormous! This looked like I was wearing my dads jacket and was too big to wear.
Way too big . Unwearable . I think a size down still would have been too voluminous through the shoulders , arms and chest.

Beautiful dress for a SLO night
This dress is gorgeous and unique. Yes, as reported it is super low cut. A small little hook helps a little but to pull this off I wore a blank bandeau top that worked well . I little big on me but I am not sure I could have sized down.

Swallowed me up
Nice silky material of high quality but this run bis with really long arms. I would not be able to function, work or eat with the big arms. Low cut so a cami is needed. It swallowed me up and looked frumpy. I was looking forward to wearing this as a combo work/going out top but did not wear it. I am not sure a size down would have worked any better. Does not cinch at the waist as shown in the picture.

Slimming and classy
Great for winter work wear and out to dinner afterwards. Cute and slimming. I could have sized down and I not sure if it is because this runs a little large for a medium or if because it is sweater material it might have stretched out. Lots of compliments . Wore with charcoal tights and black booties. Would rent again

It's a puffy pirate shirt
This looks so cute on the hanger and then I put it on and it made me look huge. Huge shoulders, big chest, it's puffs out in the worst places and make you look puffy . My husband saw it on me and said " OMG, where did you get the puffy Seinfeld pirate shirt?" So yeah, this wasn't going to work. Might look cute and boho on someone tall and slim but it just looked weird on my athletic frame.

Weird fit
Ugh, not for me. Snug and body fitting but the bottom was tight, short and fit oddly. There was no way I would be comfortable wearing this for a day of meetings. I knew I would Be tugging and pulling down all day so I went with something else and will send this back as part of my unlimited plan . Will stick with more traditional DVF in the future . Color is pretty.

Too light for CA winter
Cute breezy top that will be nice for spring or summer but a no go for CA winter. I could have sized down as this is a big flowy top. Will rent in the summer and pair with white means vines with matching cami which is nice

Super fun and cute but should have gone with smaller size
I was so excited to finally rent this jacket as part of unlimited but sadly I should have gone with the smaller size . I have big shoulders so I went with the size 10 and it swallowed me up. Size 8 probably would have been perfect. Oh well, next time . Good quality and soft

Perfect fit
I have had my eye on this DVF sweater dress for awhile and was thrilled to wear it to a special date night. Absolute perfect fit. Paired with black tights and booties because it was chilly. Great for work or work to evening. Not a warm weather item, strictly winter or fall. Love the detailing on arms and bottom which gave it some extra style vs a straight up sweater dress

Cute but ran too big
I have had my eye on this dress for awhile and was torn between this and another dress for my birthday party. Ran too big in the waist and made me look boxy vs curvy . Fit fine in the waist, shoulders and plenty of room in the bottom. Quality material and cute design

Beautiful piece that would go well with plenty of items. A little shorter than I expected and almost too short to pair with the turtleneck dress I was wearing but it worked. Lots of compliments and people asked if this was one of the items I brought back from a trip to Tahiti

Stunning red dress
Stunning red dress I wore for my birthday party. It is more of an orange red color and is made of a stretchy sweater like material. The medium fit great but definitely requires shape wear because it will show every curve . Tons of compliments. Glad I was brave enough to try this

Big hit in NOLA
I was sure this wouldn't fit my huge shoulders and the size 10 was perfect. Had a some room in the waist, which was fine with me. Tons of complements during a long night in New Orleans . Ran into a girl in the bathroom who said " I live that top!" I said , " It's RTR -and your dress is super cute too!" She laughed and said " It's RTR".

This dress is gorgeous.
Rented this for a goth themed wedding. Absolutely beautiful dress that for like a glove. It is strapless with an overlay top so take that into consideration for sizing. I have big shoulders and the 8 fit perfectly . Would rent again for a party or semi formal occasion . Tons of compliments

Everyone went nuts for this dress and loved hearing about Rent the Runway.
Glad I ordered a backup size a size larger. I am between sizes right now and the bottom of the 8 fit great but the top wasn't going to happen so I need to wear the 10. I wish the top had adjustable straps because that would have solved some problems. Used double sided tape to keep things on point. the length was great and didn't require me to wear super high heels. I think I need to size up in the higher end designer dresses going forward
