Fun floral dress
Size 0 fit me perfectly. It just didn't suit my body at all. The ruffles start right around the hips so obviously greatly accentuate your hips. I found that a little young looking on me to be so flouncy on the bottom. The top fit perfectly also but, for my tastes, was too low cut. I could have easily pinned it but, overall, the dress just didn't suit me. I thought it was going to be more flowy, breezy looking but its quite fitted.

Odd length and not flattering on me
TOO green and a very odd length on me. If it had been knee length or shorter, I might have kept it but it looked super matronly and unflattering. The sleeves are also an unusual length, in a bad way. I LOVE classic sheath dresses but this one did nothing for me.

Size 40 is an absolute perfect fit for me. I appreciate the more modest neckline. Length is great, fit is great.

Great dress but didn't fit
Loved the style, fabric and colors but I couldn't zip the 6R up around the bust area. I'm a small 34B so take note of sizing!

I loved the tweed but the fur collar was a little TOO big for my style. Fun to wear as a rental. The garment I received was starting to show its age with some fuzzy tweed.

High Waisted, Cute Button Detail
For comparison, I wear a size 25 in high waisted denim and the OR fit me well. When I first tried them on, I loved the fit and the lightweight feel of the fabric and immediately wanted to buy them. After just a few wears, though, the waistband started to pull apart from the fabric and there was some threads dangling at the hems. They also started to stretch out a big and didn't look nearly as sharp and flattering. Great for a one-time wear if you need a pair of black pants rotated through your wardrobe!

I wore this to Thanksgiving dinner and got a lot of pilgrim references. Easy to wear, fit was great and I liked that it was a unique dress while still modest. The dress I received was starting to show its age.

Jolly Green Giant
The top is a perfect fit and the slits are fine with highwaisted pants. The blouse adds some volume and that, combined with the vibrant color, is not for someone trying to blend in. EXTREME jewel tone green. Fun to try, but not a real fit for my personality or style.

Comfortable, pretty good fit
I love plaid pants and these are cute! They were a tiny bit big but the 0 would probably have been too tight. Good pants for work. For some reason, they just don't seem unique or particularly unusual in person, despite the patterns and big buttons.

I am NOT big busted and the size 0 was still super tight on top but, once zipped, not uncomfortably so. Really cute and easy to wear dress. Flattering length, fit and colors. I wore it to a bbq and it was perfect!

Conservative dress, easy to wear
I rented this for a daytime church event in a city. It is creative/unique looking while being long enough and with enough coverage to also be conservative. I wore it with fitted tan ankle boots. I had no problem with the fit but did pin the front as I prefer less cleavage. The 40 fit me exactly as pictured on the model and I loved the flowy skirt look.

Lots of fabric on the lower half
Cute dress to throw on and run around town but definitely not flattering on me. The skirt is full, lined, and has ruffles, adding up to a lot going on, on the bottom half. Way more pink in person and reminded me of a little girl's sundress. I wore it over my bathing suit for a day in the sun and at the pool.

SUPER short slip, more like a tank top
The lace portion of the dress is beautiful and I loved the fit and length. The black slip that goes under it was FAR too short, not even covering my behind and it is not stretchy so it doesn't stay in place if you raise your arms or sit down. There was no possibility of wearing this. I was so disappointed.

Lovely unique dress
I absolutely love this dress. The XS was a perfect fit. It is dressy, however, and did not suit the occasion I rented for, sadly. Classic and conservative dress that is unique and beautiful. The sparkle was surprisingly subtle on and very pretty. I may rent again in the future when I have the right occasion!

Cute and comfortable
True to size (I'm a 25 in denim and the 0 was a perfect fit), but a bit long. They were not cropped on me (5'5") as they are on the model. I LOVED these pants. They are so comfortable and stylish and easy to wear. Versatile and a nice alternative to jeans!

Wanted to love it but not the right dress for me
The fit was perfect in every way. For me, it was too lowcut for work and yet too conservative for a night out. The sleeves didn't fall the way they do on the model, on me. They didn't look nearly as good. I didn't wear it and returned it, not having any idea where I would wear this.

I loved the style of these and thought they were really stylish. They were a little wide for my face and slipped on my nose while wearing. The weight of them left a mark on the bridge of my nose. Really wish they had worked.

A go-to favorite!
I LOVED this dress so much. It is extremely flattering, a great length and appropriate for so many different occasions. The color looks great even on fairer skin. I had to wear a nude camisole and spanx with it because it is too sheer and the top snaps open easily. If it were not for those two "cons," I for sure would own this dress. A hard one to part with!

Beautiful romper!
This is a great romper and fits true to size. I have a very long torso and had no issues with the length on the Size 0. It is full on the bottom and looks more like a dress (I wish it WAS a dress - would be easier to use bathroom!). It is very appropriate in length and style, if you are seeking something conservative. I received a ton of compliments and really enjoyed wearing it.

Fun to try high waisted style
I am a solid size 25 in denim. The 25's in this style were too big in the waist by about an inch, not unwearable, just not as fitted as I am used to. The length was long on me, almost to my shoes, nothing like on the model. They did not look stylish and were not flattering (thus, no photo!). Worked well to pair with a relatively short top, though.

Classic shift dress with unique pattern
I have worn a size 0 in just about all other RTR dresses (including all Marchesa Notte styles). I rented the 2 in this dress because the 0 was not available and the size 2 fit perfectly. I do not have wide hips but I believe the size 0 would not have fit in the hips at all. This dress is super classic, appropriate for work and business dinners, and stylish, given the print. The color looks a little worn but not bad. I wore it with pale pink heels for dinner and with gold flats for church. If the collar was a little whiter/newer, I for sure would have bought this one.

XS was a perfect fit for me. Often, these style pf blouses look too baggy, but not this one. I loved the length, weight of the fabric, fit and style. If it was not 100 percent silk and dry clean only, I would absolutely buy this top. Very versatile!

Bodycon
Pretty color and soft fabric that is thick enough to wear well. Size XS fit me appropriately but the dress was just way too bodycon for my style. For me, this would not be work appropriate. Definitely accentuates your curves and especially your rear.

Beautiful, classic and conservative dress
Perfect fit; fits exactly true to size. It is a conservative and classic dress, needing no jewelry or any extras. I wore it to an evening debutante event for my daughter. The fabric and lining are thick and flattering. I had zero fit issues and found it very comfortable. The dress is surprisingly flattering on very fair skin and photographs well.

Nicely sized, pretty color
This purse is a perfect match for the Metallic Jalpur Sheath dress from RTR. It is a pretty rose color and works well for formal events. I had no issues at all with it and found the size as expected and the shoulder chain the correct length. Definitely an evening bag as you won't be able to fit a wallet or a lot of extras.

So cute! I ordered the medium because the small was not available and think the small would have been a better/perfect fit. I love this little shirt and how versatile it is. I've paired it with RTR pants. Way better than my usual sweatshirt and the weight is perfect for a transition piece.

I'm about a size 25 in denim and the size 2 in these pants are a really good fit (slightly big in the waist but I think a 0 would have been unattractively tight). These pants are awesome! They can easily be dressed up or down. In the photo, I have them on with a RTR Joie shirt and wore this outfit for running errands and a coffee/lunch dates. I love these pants! Way cuter and more comfortable than denim or my standard black pants.

Flying Nun
The size small is a perfect fit in every regard. I have broad shoulders for my frame and felt like the top half of the dress, especially the volume in the sleeves, overwhelmed me. I ended up wearing it with a denim jacket, tights and boots. I love how fitted the dress is through the ribcage and waist and the unique hem line. It definitely looks classy and more than a basic black dress.

Bright and modest
Perfect fit in the bodice but it was super long on me (midi) and not very flattering. I don't know if the top of the dress is supposed to hit at the waist or not but on me, and I'm long waisted, it was about 4 to 5 inches ABOVE my natural waist. I don't regret renting it because it is modest, appropriate for church/conservative events and bright and cheery. I loved the pockets.

Bridges the professional - casual workwear gap
The garment was clean and the belt arrived with it, also clean and pressed (better than a previous experience I had with RTW and a missing belt). I work in a casual work environment making it a little challenging to get the balance between professional and too formal right. This top was perfect with jeans and boots. It fit me perfectly. I wore a camisole underneath and hooked the top hook, similar to the model. I got a lot of compliments and felt very "put together" and professional without trying too hard or looking too stodgy.

I did not end up wearing this dress but did try it on. The size 0R was a very good fit other than being rather long. To me, the dress felt sort of matronly and conservative. The quality of the dress is evident but the style felt blah.

I usually wear a size 0 and this was extremely snug, but not uncomfortable. I didn't receive a back up size and believe I am probably in between sizes with this designer. I think a size 2 would have been baggy. I'm 5'5" and the dress was the perfect length with very high heels. This dress is great for a black tie event where you don't want to look too formal/stuffy!
