Stunning Red Dress!
This dress makes you feel glamorous. Even in the petite size and with 4" heels, it was rather long but created this illusion of a beautiful train. It's slim fitting but not super tight, which can be good after eating a bit of dinner. The fabric is nice and thick as well and kept me comfortable for a January wedding. I wore a NuBra but you could definitely wear a regular bra; there are little buttoned strings that can keep it in place under the strap. Would definitely rent this one again!

Gorgeous dress with pockets!
This is probably my favorite rental of all time, that's how gorgeous this dress is! Since I'm petite, the bottom hits lower than on the model, however it didn't drag on the floor with my 3.5" heels. The fabric is thicker, which adds to the luxurious feeling. The pink underneath is a nice touch without being overbearing. The pockets are amazing and you can slip in your phone, money, or lipstick no problem. There's boning in the top of the dress which helps hold it up; I wore a nubra with it to help hold it up as it was slightly large. I received so many compliments from strangers and wish I could rent it again!

Pretty in pink
I wore this for the baptism of my husband's goddaughter. I wanted something pretty but conservative enough for church; I ended up wearing a white sweater over it because it was a little cold in the morning, but took it off later. This dress grazed over your body, showing your shape without being tight at all. We ended up eating lunch out and never felt like everyone could see that I ate like crazy (which totally happens with some dresses). It hit nicely above the knee which I was worried about being so short. I ended up ironing the collar, like people had recommended, because when I got it in the mail, it had wilted a little. I received a ton of compliments and would definitely rent this designer again.

E&J is always perfect
This is the 4th or 5th E&J dress I've rented and they never fail to disappoint. As a petite woman, it's hard to find a dress that fits well and also hits above the knee; this dress fell nicely above without being too short. The flare of the skirt adds shape and also doesn't put everything you ate on full display! I could've worn a strapless bra with this dress (didn't try a regular one), but I opted for a NuBra. It's a beautiful color that I never wear but I think that's going to change. My husband loved this dress on me and wished he was going out with me instead; I wore it for a baby shower.

Beautiful red dress!
This is the third time I've rented an E&J dress but the first time it's been floor-length. Even with my 4" heels, it dragged just a little but nothing terrible as the slit makes it easy to walk (however if you take a step back or something, you could end up like me and keep stepping on your dress). Otherwise, it was perfect, felt like a dream and received compliments from strangers! I forgot my NuBra but besides when I was a little cold (ha) it was totally fine because the material is thick. Would rent again if I didn't take so many pictures in it but definitely will keep going back to E&J!

Cute dress
This was my second E&J rental and the dress fit just as well as my other one. It's a pretty, light blue dress that was perfect for the occasion. The straps/top of the dress make it not so plain. Being short, I'm always conscious of where dresses hit me because it can make me look shorter; this dress hit nicely above the knee while not being short enough to be worrisome of it flying up or anything when dancing. I would rent another E&J dress again in a heartbeat!

My favorite dress
This dress is gorgeous and probably my favorite rental I've had with RTR so far (this is #5); the dress made me feel beautiful and confident. It fit surprisingly well, basically perfect, for my petite frame. I wore it with 4.5" heels and it nicely hit the floor but wasn't in the way when walking. There is a good lining under the dress so you can wear it without a bra but since it was less than 30* outside, didn't want to chance feeling "cold" and I wore a NuBra. So many people I didn't know came up to me to tell me how beautiful the dress was! Definitely an eye-catcher and I was sad to return the dress.

Beautiful red dress!
Wore this for a wedding and received so many compliments! It's a head turner between the eye-catching red and the plunging back so be ready for that. The straps were a little annoying but just a little lift up and adjustment made them fine again. For girl with bigger busts, it's definitely going to be a tight fit and the cross straps in front will fit oddly - they crossed over the bottom on my bust unless I pulled down on the straps, which made them tighter and kind of uncomfortable. I wore super high heels (6" heel with a 2" platform) and the dress grazed the floor just slightly more than I would like; I had to be a little careful when walking and definitely had to lift up the dress when sitting down or walking outside. Really though, this is a stunning dress and I was sad when the event was over and I had to return it!

Classy dress
I wore this when I presented my Master's thesis. I'm very petite and this was my first E&J rental - it hit nicely above the knee (a must for my already short legs!) and was comfortably fitted. Loved the asymmetrical hem as that added a nice little touch to a relatively simple dress. I needed something that was professional but I could also go out later and not look stuffy. Great rental!

Perfect red dress!
I usually wear a 00P so was worried this dress might be too big for me, but the reviews from other women like me seemed to gravitate towards wearing the 2 when they normally worse a 0. This was my first RTR and I wore this for my husband's formal work holiday party. This dress fit perfectly! It hugged in all the right places and felt really comfortable. The draping style also helps after you've eaten a big meal (: It hit me right around my knees which is what I was looking for. There is a gold zipper that goes down one side that I didn't notice in the pictures and is very visible when you wear the dress, but I still thought it was pretty. I would definitely recommend this dress and would rent it again if I didn't use a picture of me in the dress for this year's Christmas cards!
