Farm Rio does it again!
Amazing pattern and overall fun to wear. The sleeves are fantastic! I'm not ususally a romper girl becasue they are a pain to wear out, but this one was worth it. Not sure this would work well for tall girls, felt a little short waisted but overall nice fit on my 5'5 frame.

I have been renting with RTR since 2009 and this is in my top 3 rentals of all time. I wore to a birthday party, a work conference, and vacation dinner. It was very flattering and fit perfectly. I felt like a million bucks in it.

A summer and 4th of July perfect fit!
Fit was true to size. Perfect dress for vacation gettaways or summer party nights. I wore to a 4th of July community party and was stopped by several strangers to ask where I got the dress. I will rent this dress again next summer!

Beautiful and versatile
Wore this for a rehearsal dinner, a work dinner, and a charity event. You could dress it up or down. It fit true to size and had some room to breath. I think this would be flattering on most body shapes.

Fashionable and warm!
Everyone was very jealous at the fall wedding I was at where the temps dropped to 38 degrees! It was extremly warm and looked fantastic. Fit true to size. If the weather is going to be even slighlty warm, I would pass on this coat.

Pretty color but just ok
I'm fairly thin and this was not a flattering fit on my body. It's a very beautiful color in person and would be a nice dress to wear to a spring or summer wedding. I think the fit would work better on a taller women.

Too many compliments to count
Fit true to size - a little short waisted. Super cozy and a very fun shape in the sleeves. I rented for a trip to Utah. Once the temp drops in FL this winter I wil rent on repeat.

Too small to wear in public
I did not wear this- it was way too crop. In some pictures, it looked ok on the person, but on me, it was too inappropriate.

Super cute and comfortable for work. Sleeves got in the way a bit, but not overwhelming.
I felt like it was very true to size.

Great dress. Beautiful color and flattering for the curves. Doesn't hide any flaws!
The dress is tight and you have to place on over your head. Luckily my hair appointment fell through otherwise it would have been an awkward maneuver. I recommend some spanx, cause this dress is tight. I did receive a lot of compliments but it wasn't one of my favorite RTR. And it also had a very bad smell. I wonder if it was cleaned because it had a slight BO odor and deodorant marks. I've rented from here for years and often and never seen that happen before but it was the only thing I could think of to reason for the smell.

Perfect dress for my sisters casual rehearsal dinner.
Dress fit very well. After my last baby I have been mostly a 4, but felt better in the size 2 for this dress. It is very tight in the mid-section and won't hide much. I also did not like the sleeves. They were too short and I thought the ruffle was pretty but it looked awkward when you moved your arm. Overall I got a lot of compliments and would rent again. You can dress this up or down.

I did not wear
I did not end up wearing this dress because it was too revealing. Maybe if I had been going to an event out in Vegas or Miami it would have worked but I did not feel comfortable wearing it out for my sisters bachelorette. It was too sexy for the situation. In the reviews it said that it ran large and I agree. I ended up wearing an XS and I have 34DD. I had purchased a special bra to wear but it did not work. I would have just had to tape the crap out of the sides. The dress overall was very comfortable.

I wore this to my mothers surprise birthday/lobster bake party. It fit the theme perfect!
I had a baby 11 weeks ago and it was very flattering to my belly bulge. The photos do not show the beautiful raised texture of the white coral. I was worried it would be too short but length was appropriate and I was even able to baby wear in the dress. Dress was true to size, I'm a 2 or XS/S with a large chest. It fit well and was very comfortable. Perfect for a casual/ day wedding, showers, parties or even dinner out on a beach vacation. I will rent this again.

This was my first fail with RTR. It was far too short. So disappointed,
The bodice fit fine but the length was extremely short. It probably would have worked if I was 5 inches shorter and I'm usually pretty liberal with my length.

The color was amazing! Perfect for a daytime wedding, shower or corporate dinner.
The chest was a little snug and the hips were a little wide. Outside of that the fit was pretty much true to size.

Really did not like the fit of this dress. If you have a large chest- DO NOT order.
There were beads on the top missing on both dresses. It was pretty from far away but in all of the photos I look pregnant. The problem was the dress was very low cut and I had trouble finding the right bra. I think for a taller woman and a smaller cup size this dress would work well.

This was the perfect dress for my bachelorette night! Super comfortable and fit all my curves.
I'm very chesty so it was a little tight in the top but the rest of the dress fit perfectly. Typically I wear a size 2 in a dress but stepped up to the 4 with my free back up and it was perfect.
