Not a boring suit!
This was perfect for my work event. Wore it in the fall but would rent again for spring. It was a nice change from the more "boring" staple suit items.

Very comfortable and flattering
Loooooved this dress. It was so comfortable and flattering, but I was glad I sized up after reading the reviews - there is no way my normal size would have zipped up. I will likely rent this dress again - it's one of my favorites I've ever worn!

Beautiful color and neckline
Real love the length, color and neckline of this dress. However, it has some weird extra fabric that hit me just below my waist. It's also very difficult to zip/unzip as is typical with so many women's dresses. It would be perfect for an event the requires a lot of sitting. I'll wear it because I love the color so much, but won't rent again because of the extra fabric.

Nothing
I'm a true size 4/27 and these were too small for me. I do carry most of my weight in my thighs, so PERHAPS the waist would have fit if I could have gotten them up to that point, but I couldn't.

They were small.
These ran too small to get on. I'm a size 4 and they didn't fit. I anticipated this based on other reviews, but they were they only size so I thought I'd give a try, but it didn't work. I'd definitely need a larger size.

Perfect for family photos - neutral yet feminine
As others pointed out, it is quite tight in the arms and across the back, which caused me to size up. The 4 would have fit perfectly from the bust down, but everything upwards needed the 6. The dress was comfortable and beautiful. I hated to send it back.

Beautiful dress with a retro feel
The dress fit true to size and was very beautiful, but the other reviewers were correct - the straps are way too long! This wouldn't be an issue if you owned the dress, but pinning was a little complicated and one of my pins snapped on our way to the wedding - which made the whole thing uncomfortable. If you are better prepared and use better pins (but bring back-ups), this dress is absolutely lovely. It's just definitely not "ready to wear".

Beautiful fit and colors
Overall, it was a beautiful dress. Bit tight in the shoulders/chest, but so long as you aren't raising your arms all too much, it's not a problem!

Very pretty dress.
This dress was very nice, but didn't blow me out of the water. I order the small and extra small, and was very surprised the the lace layer was so large in the small! I ended up wearing the slip of the small and the lace of the extra small - kind of strange. I would definitely recommend this dress as it is a classic.

Incredibly flattering dress!
I rented this for my bridal shower, and while I wasn't sure at first if I would like the color, this is my favorite dress that I've rented so far! I've tried to find it to buy it, but haven't had any luck. Such a great dress!

It certainly accentuates your curves! And it travels great - came out of my suitcase looking perfect
When I initially took the dress out of the box, I was a little disappointed at how thin the fabric was - I was picture something more substantial. However, I was very please with the fit of this dress and received tons of compliments. I was able to wear this dress twice - once to a work gala on Thursday and then again to a wedding on Friday. I totally changed the look by wearing different accessories and was excited to get so much use out of one rental period. Though I was worried that the fit was too risque for a work event, I was assured that the conservative cut and color balanced that out, making it appropriate. Word to the wise - curvy girls, you better love your curves because this does show them off! I bet it even creates curves on those who are a bit more straight. Great dress overall!

The color of this dress is perfection.
I really, really wanted to give this dress 5 stars, but it had some issue. It looked outstanding when standing still. I have some "saddlebags"(I could NEVER wear Herve Leger) and was concerned that this dress would accentuate them, but it was quite the opposite. However, when I walked, that lining REALLY rode up. I looked down at one point and my underwear were nearly showing under the lace! Also, this particular dress (it may have been just this one dress) seem to be cut funny because it really wanted to shift left all night. Basically, I had to constantly pull, shift and adjust things in this dress, which made it fairly uncomfortable. I still had to give it 4 stars though because it is insanely beautiful.

I love that you can order two sizes - it definitely came in handy this time!
I loved this dress! Typically I order a 2 and a 4 and end up in the 4. Something told me to order 4 and 6 this time, and I'm glad I did! It was loose in the waist, but there is no way it would have fit over my butt in a size 4. Everyone was asking where I got the dress - I must have told at least 5 new people about RTR - it's my new obsession, and this dress didn't disappoint.

When I found out that my home address needed a signature (after the order had been completed), the customer service rep was easily able to change the shipping address to my office. Great customer service!
I wasn't too sure about this dress when I first opened the package - it's a bit outside of my comfort zone - which made it perfect for a rental. However, I loved how I felt in it and received TONS of compliments! It was perfect for the bachelorette party I attended. I am small waisted with larger hips/thighs, and was afraid this would fit unflatteringly in the "saddle bag" area, but it was a great and flattering fit. Very pleased with this dress!

My fiance couldn't stop telling me great he thought I looked!
This dress was amazing! I got tons of compliments on it - as I usually do when I RTR. The only reason that I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 was because it tended to ride up a bit if you had to walk any distance at all. Other than that, it was fantastic!
