OBSESSED
Words cannot express how perfect this dress is. The colors are so vibrant, the construction is perfect, it’s comfortable to wear, and it couldn’t be more flattering. I got so many compliments when I wore it to my daughter’s graduation party. I would say it runs slightly large; I ended up wearing the 0, but I’m almost always a 2. I could have gotten away with the 2, but lied the way the 0 fit better on top. This dress is so unique and easy to wear. Rent it! You won’t be disappointed.

Not for me
This is a lovely dress, but not on me. It was much too low cut for the graduation I was going to, and I didn’t find the waist flattering (it accentuated my tummy). As with all Farm Rio pieces, it’s well made and a lovely pattern.

In love with this dress!
I wore this dress to my daughter’s high school graduation, and it was just perfect. It’s extremely flattering, very comfortable, and doesn’t require any rigging up like a special bra or fashion tape. You really don’t even need to shave your legs because of the longer midi length, and you can totally wear normal panties 🤣. It’s really the perfect dress for RTR, because the wrap style is adjustable and forgiving. The cotton fabric is nice and cool, and it’s su ch a vibrant color. I will absolutely rent this again, and I may even buy it!

Not for me, but beautiful
This dress is very high quality, unique, and stunning. Unfortunately, it didn’t fit me well, so I didn’t wear it. I have a very narrow ribcage (29”), and the straps were not adjustable, so it didn’t provide enough support for me in the bust. Lovely dress, though!

Not at all heavy!
These are so adorable and, most importantly, LIGHT as a feather! It’s so hard to find occasion earrings that aren’t super heavy. These are a keeper!

Meh
I did not think this jumpsuit was very flattering, especially around the midsection. It was just Ok. Definitely not for a party or formal affair. Maybe it would be better with a belt?

Shapeless
I wish I would have sized down on this. It’s was really shapeless and paper baggy on me. Plus, super wrinkly. I didn’t end up taking it with me on vacation.

Wish I would have sized up
This jumpsuit was awkward to get on and off and was too short in the crotch for me. Should have sized up. Cute pattern. The fabric would be great for summer but beware; it’s see through so you’d need to wear nude color undergarments.

I freaking love these jeans so much!!! They are so flattering and comfortable, I just couldn’t get enough of them. I wore them several times while I had them and then just had to buy them. They’re perfect!

A great blazer!
This blazer is so fun and comfortable. The green lining is so cute, and the print is unique. The cut is generous, so it’s more of an unstructured look. Would rent again!

My all time favorite RTR rental
This jumpsuit is perfect. Not too revealing but sexy, incredibly comfortable, no need for shape wear/super high heels/sticky bra. I seriously want to rent this for every event for the rest of my life. It would be equally appropriate for a formal event or a date night, or anything in between. I couldn’t love this more!

Great daytime formal dress
This was my backup dress. I definitely would have worn it if my event was during the day; it’s really more suited to a daytime wedding or formal event than a nighttime event. The back is absolutely stunning— it adjusts to fit, and the top provides great support and push up, so a bra isn’t necessary. The fabric is light and airy, and the lining is not at all heavy or hot. The length is definitely long, but not crazy long, esp with a modest heel. This one is definitely staying on the wish list for later!

So many compliments!
This is a really unique, chic dress. The color is a little less hot pink and a little more purple/orchid than I expected, but still so beautiful and really stood out in a sea of black cocktail dresses. The length was perfect for me (I’m 5’6” and wore modest heels). The back is stunning, and for someone like me with a very small (29”) band size, it was nice to be able to adjust it. The top is quite a deep V, but the coverage is ample so I didn’t feel overexposed. I’m 47 and nursed 2 kids, so I needed to wear a “bunny style” sticky bra for a little lift, but the top provides enough support that a bra is not absolutely necessary. Re: the sizing, the 0 and the 2 both fit, but I went with the 0 because it fit better up top. All in all, this is an amazing, unique, comfortable dress that I would definitely recommend!

Great Jumpsuit
Super comfortable, flattering, and festive! Didn’t end up wearing it, but only because I liked my backup style so much. Would definitely rent again! I have a moderately long torso and it did not give the dreaded 🐪 toe!

Meh.
I wasn't crazy about this dress. It's a lovely, substantial fabric, and the color is great, but it ran large in the top and the straps weren't adjustable, so I didn't end up wearing it. It might work great for someone with a larger bust.

Amazing Christmas Party Outfit!
This jumpsuit is absolutely gorgeous! It has a great 80s vibe and is so flattering on. There couldn't be an easier way to dress up for a party-- just throw this jumpsuit on and you're done! Warning: as with most jumpsuits, it's an adventure to use the bathroom in this. You have to have a fair amount of shoulder flexibility to get your hand all the way up to the zipper, and there's a hook at the top to do/undo. It's worth it, though, for this gem of a party outfit! Works for a longer torso, too!

Lovely dress for warm weather
This dress is gorgeous and intricate, but definitely more suitable for warmer weather. I didn't end up wearing it because my backup was just more seasonally appropriate and comfortable, but I would rent it again. I talked very forward fitting-- I recommend sizing up, especially if you're between sizes. I am almost always a 2 or 0 in dresses, and the 2 was very snug.

The prefect winter dress!
This dress checks all the boxes: forgiving fit & length, comfortable, no special bra needed, and POCKETS. It's absolutely gorgeous on, and is just a dream to wear. No tugging or adjusting or nip slips. It's heavy and substantial, so definitely a colder weather dress. I will rent it again!

Fabulous Dress
This dress is super comfortable, absolutely gorgeous, unique, flattering, and a joy to wear. It does run big, so order the next size down for backup. Also a tad long for gals like me who can't sport the 3" heels. I would rent it again for sure! Love!

Loved but didn't wear
This is such a unique, flattering, gorgeous dress on. The photos do it no justice. The skirt is a tiny bit constricting, but it fits like a glove in all the right places, so it's worth it. My two issues were with the construction: the zipper was a bear to get up and down (which I could have lived with) and there was a tiny row of sequins missing from one side (which I couldn't deal with). The one I got needs to be repaired, obv. If not for this flaw, I would have worn the hell out of this dress!

Lovely, unique earrings
I really loved these earrings for the charity gala I rented them for. They are beautiful on, comfortable to wear, not too heavy, and go with a wide variety of colors. You could even dress them down and wear them with a more casual dress. Highly recommend!

Lovely dress, but not on me
I wanted to like this dress-- the color of the fabric is so beautiful, and the cut of the skirt is dramatic and gorgeous-- but the top just didn't work for me. I have a 30DD bust, but after two kids, not a lot of "lift" up top, so the unstructured nature of the top of this dress was not flattering at all for me. It ended up looking like a tube top on me. I felt like i would be pulling it up all night long, so I didn't go with this dress (it was my backup). Also, there was an exposed piece of boning on the side of the dress that kept poking me; even in the few minutes I had it on, I found that very uncomfortable. The rest of the dress was very flattering and classy. I would recommend this dress to someone with ample, perky breasts that can hold up the top. A side note: my husband said the fabric looked like his grandma's old couch; I thought it had a sweet, vintage look. To each his/her own :)

The perfect gown!
I received TONS of compliments on this dress, which I wore to a charity gala. It is the kind of dress that could look good on a wide variety of body types. It also wears effortlessly-- there's no tugging, pulling, or constriction, and it's very comfortable. You do have to wear a sticky bra, because the back doesn't lend itself to a regular bra. The colors go with everything and are very versatile. The back and the high-low hemline add just the right amount of drama. I would rent this dress again and again!

Great Go-To Dress
I feel like this dress could work for just about anyone. The style is very forgiving, and the dress skims the body in a flattering way, without being tight or constricting. It's actually quite comfortable. I received many compliments. It's a unique, interesting dress. Not a knockout, not glamorous, but a great go-to dress for a formal occasion. Could be dressed up super formal or dressed down for more casual events. One tip-- wear a black strapless bra. When I put my hand on my hip in a pic, you could see the underside of my nude bra (!).

Lovely Dress, but Not for My Body
I wanted to like this dress. Actually, there was so much I DID like about it-- the fabric is substantial and interesting, the lower half of the dress has a very elegant drape, the high-low hemline is modern and adds interest, and... pockets! The top half of the dress just did not work for me though. I was positively swimming in it. Admittedly, with a 29DD bust, I'm not easy to fit. I have to alter most dresses to fit my torso and waist. If you have a proportionate torso, this may work well for you. I really wish it would've worked for me; it's a stunning dress. Thank goodness for back up styles!
