Perfectly seasonal
Great fit and no complaints for this beauty. The color is gorgeous and the weight makes it perfect for fall or winter. There's a bit of stretch which is nice and the dress creates a very nice silhouette. Highly recommend!

Cute and comfy
Loved this dress! Great length as someone who dislikes short dresses. Size down for backup as it seems like the dresses run a little large. Also it showed more boob than I expected so be prepared!

Cape 4L!
Love love love this dress, the cape was easily the best part. It was nice and stretchy over my big old hips but maybe for the same reason was not great on my poochy belly. I would have liked the Long length but only the R was available on short notice so I had to wear flats to avoid weird gapping between the floor and the dress (I'm 5'4" for reference). Would recommend to anyone who loves a cape ;)

Gorgeous and flattering
Nice stretch, great fit, my only complaint is that the length is a little weird for a short gal, especially since I wore flats to this garden wedding in Hawaii.

Gorgeous gingham!
Great fit, especially for girls like me with a smaller waist and big ol bottom. Received many compliments on this flattering, cute style. Will rent again! I was so sad to see it go.

Can't say enough good things!
Loved this so much. Very stretchy, I would have sized down for backup had I known. Got many compliments, even from strangers. I wore a t-back bra which I would recommend. Great dress for a pear shaped girl!

Gorgeous but not for me
Great fabric but I am very bottom heavy and it was not as flattering as I would hope. Would rent again if I lost a bit of weight!

Spanx are a must but it was a lovely dress. Great shape and fabric! I styled with black leather heels.

Fun and flirty
I got this as my birthday rental and I love the print and style! I feel it ran a bit small as I usually wear a 10 and the large didn't quite fit (I would have preferred an XL but it doesn't seem to come in that size). It was tight on the arms and across the chest and hung a bit funny at the hips (as I am a full hip/tush girl... I don't think a thinner person has this problem. And Spanx helped). Also, as some others have said, I felt the short side was VERY short and I am not a tall person. It was OK for date night since I only had to wear it for a few hours (most of them sitting) but I don't think I would rent it again.

Perfect party dress
Fits great, made me look WAY slimmer than I am, I love this and can't say enough good things about it, I wish she had more designs that varied in looks a bit more but were equally as flattering so I could rent them for everything!

Noir Timeless Love Dress

Lovely, but revealing
The fit was great except that the shell of the skirt isn't attached to the lining at the zipper, so for a gal with a bigger tush, it was gaping and kind of bunchy and didn't create smooth lines. The neckline is VERY revealing for bigger chested girls so I went with my other option. But the dress itself is gorgeous! I would recommend for someone slimmer, slighter than myself.

Compliments all night!
I am in love with this dress. I was able to wear it without Spanx which was great. The tulle/lace combo is gorgeous and the color is beautiful. I can't say enough good things. If you are on the fence about size I would say go down UNLESS you are busty - in my case the 6 fit great and I would have preferred it, but it flattened out my boobs when it was zipped all the way up. Such a great price for a great dress, I highly recommend. I'm not sure which compliment I loved hearing over and over: "your dress is so gorgeous!" Or "your date is so handsome!" ;)

On point for a winter wedding
I am so in love with this dress. The full skirt is flirty and fun and SUPER forgiving for bottom-heavy girls like me. Huge recommendation for a pear shaped gal. Material is gorgeous and it photographs well, I got compliments ALL night long. Only drawback is there is not a lot of give in the chest- from head on it looks great but the side angle shows that my boobs are kind of squished in. Also pictured: my bestie in her rented Shoshanna!
Down the Middle Dress

Original and Beautiful
This dress is really beautiful and modern with beautiful lines that create a great silhouette, especially for a curvier girl. The fit was good, I was having a rough day, bloating-wise though, and it's NOT very forgiving on a poochy belly. Additionally, I had a little trouble with my bra peeking out the top and the double stick tape doesn't adhere very well to the fabric of the dress. However, it was really gorgeous in person and I enjoyed the rental. I wore it with black, cut-out shooties.

Chic and Gorgeous
Really loved the dress and would recommend it for most body types. One con is that the top is a little loose and I did some pulling-up throughout the night - not typical for me as I usually tend to stretch the limits of most dresses in the bust. The M was a little tight but the L was loose so I went M. Lots of visual interest, nice colors for a winter wedding. I paired it with big gold and amethyst chandelier earrings and black peep-toe pumps.

Beautiful, but not for me
I didn't wear this dress because it didn't fit just right and because I was running around all day and didn't find out until just before my event, I couldn't replace. The fantastic customer service at RTR helped to take care of me, though, and has maintained me as a loyal customer.

Circle Dress
Milly

Not my favorite
This dress was pretty but I wasn't wild about it. The print was nice but seemed a little... old for me, moreso than it appeared in the photo. I liked it because it was a loose a flowy skirt, but there was a liner inside that was much smaller and got hung up on my significant hips, making it look bunchy. Would not recommend for hipp-y girls. Luckily, the RTR staff is phenom and replaced the dress for me in time for my date - made it a great experience as usual (thanks, Muriel!).

Completely fabulous
I wore this dress on a date and dressed it down a bit with flats and light jewelry. The fit was great, though, as some have mentioned, a little tight around the thighs (which is fine by me because it helped stop it from riding up), loose armholes that exposed a bit of bra (but I wear cute bras so I wasn't worried) and a bit of tape to keep it closed in the front. Great for curvy/busty girls, definitely worth the money, and I would certainly rent again.

PERFECT party dress!
I was right between sizes S and M so I went for the M in favor of comfort. This dress is comfortable, adorable and flattering - though I'm pretty sure so it seemed much longer on me than on the model. The fabric is forgiving and the colorblocking on the sides is so optimal! I would rent this dress again in a heartbeat... if I was the kind of girl who double rented ;) Highly recommend!

Cute dress, but I didn't wear it.
I rented this dress for a bridal shower that occurred the weekend of a snowstorm, and so the dress didn't arrive on time (totally NOT RTR's fault, it happens) but I tried it on when it got here anyway. It's lovely and has a little shimmer to the fabric that you can't really see in photos, but the fit on my hips was TIGHT and there wasn't any stretch in it. Girls with wider hips might want to steer clear of this one to avoid an unbalanced fit.

Super cute, comfortable, classy.
I loved this dress, it was very fun and comfortable and flattering. Looked great on and was perfect for New Year's Eve. My only complaint was that it was a little too roomy in the top (and I am a very busty girl), I felt as though it slipped down quite a bit. This may be because I think my shoulders slope a little. Regardless, even with fashion tape, I flashed some bra occasionally. But I would rent this again or a similar style, I loved this dress!

Great dress, great night.
I found the dress to run a little small but I also typically wear dresses with stretch - this has none. It was beautiful and fun to wear but I do NOT recommend it for chesty girls, there is simply not enough room in the bust and it was a precarious situation up top. Overall though the color and shape was gorgeous and perfect for a fall wedding. Very fun outfit.

Beautiful dress, just not right for me.
The fabric was rich and vibrant but I had problems getting the zipper to stay up as there was no clasp at the top; even though the fabric had some give, I couldn't keep it closed over my 32DDD breasts, which was unfortunate, and I wound up not wearing it. I would definitely recommend it for a slimmer, more narrow figured girl. I was sad that I couldn't wear it because it was gorgeous!

The dress was gorgeous and fit wonderfully, it was comfortable and chic - a total hit.
Excellent fit, as a busty girl I was able to wear a regular bra which was great, except the straps are very wide-set in the back and I had to have my bra pinned to them to stop it from peeking out. I loved it so much that I rented the same dress in another color for an event in November!
