Beautiful print, not work appropriate
I loved the print on this dress, but from the hips down it was far too form-fitting to be work appropriate, which was my main reason for renting it. But if you're going for something sexier, that hugs all your curves, yet without showing skin, this is your dress.

Adorable top, slightly small in the chest
Rachel Antonoff always works for me, I love her quirky styles. This top was no exception, but ran a little small in the chest, so the top button gapped a bit. I'm a 36DD and even with a bralette the girls pulled at that button. But is extremely well made and so easy to throw on to dress up a pair of jeans. Rent it!

Yes, it's sheer. But TOMATOES.
Indeed, it is very sheer and necessitates a nude bra for modesty's sake, but it is dead cute and great paired with highwaisted wide leg pants. Loved the vintage label inspired tomato print and received compliments whenever I wore it out. Those with larger chests should size up, as it's cropped, so you'll need a bit more room. ;)

Size way up if you carry weight in your midsection
This is a lovely jumpsuit but proved to be uncomfortable for all-day wear. As other reviewers mentioned, there's no stretch and it's tight in your shoulders, so don't expect to be able to lift your arms up very far. And even though I sized up, it was still very tight in the waist, so not the best for those of us with any type of tummy. Lovely print though and my husband even commented that I looked great that day, which he never does, so perhaps worth the discomfort for a short while. ;)

Gorgeous
I was surprised at how much I loved this dress, as I usually don't wear anything even remotely pink. But it is IMPECCABLY made in the most lovely fabric and flows so beautifully. Yes, it is a LOT of fabric, but it feels luxe and fits so well. The arms are little on the narrow side, so head's up if you carry your weight there. But otherwise it is very forgiving and flattering. It IS long though, so probably not the best choice for petites.

Pretty, but very oversized
I rented this for the last days of my third trimester but I never got round to wearing it, though it fit well for that purpose. For non-maternity wear, it's very oversized and tent-like, and I was drowning in the small, so perhaps size down. Belted it as others have, but then it felt a bit too formal, so paired it with white sneakers to make it look less "churchy." Pockets were a plus and the fabric is luxe and vibrant

Beautiful, easy, flowy dress
I LOVED this dress, even though initially I didn't consider it to be my style. The silk fabric, the gorgeous print, and the beautiful lace detail all make for a perfect summer dress. And then I threw a black leather moto jacket over it later in the afternoon and it looked even cooler. The top lace band was a little tight as other reviewers mentioned, but I didn't find it oppressively so. I usually wear a 4 but sized up to a 6 and it fit nicely. Bottom line: RENT IT!

Sexy, but not overtly so
This was a backup of a backup that I never intended to wear but had to because none of the other dresses sent to me were in the correct size. At first I felt a little exposed because the lining ends at the black band on the skirt and your cleavage is also visible through the lace. Plus there is very little give to the fabric so it is very body-conscious (note: the boyfriend had ZERO problems with any of this!). But it fit so well and I received so many compliments throughout the wedding that I soon eased up. The color is beautiful and unique and you will feel radiant in it!

Too bulky for my taste
The small wasn't available so based on other reviews, I took a chance and ordered a medium. It was far too big and bulky so it immediately went back. That said, the faux fur texture is absolutely lovely, the sleeves are nice and long, and I think sized properly, it would look very stylish. Because of all that, I'll consider renting it again in a small or XS if they become available.

Too long in torso/straps
This is a lovely dress but it was FAR too long in the torso and straps for me to wear. The waist hit way below my natural waist and I would have had to pin up 3+ inches of the straps for it to fit properly. Long-torsoed women: this is your dress! For the rest of us, it might not work so well.

RTR sent the wrong size but a beautiful dress
Sadly, RTR sent the wrong sizes - tags are in UK sizes but somehow they sent a US 10 and 12 instead of a UK 10 & 12 (US 6 and 8), despite instructions to the contrary on the order. But like all Temperley designs, the dress itself is gorgeous with beautiful embroidery. The dress is a bit low cut so probably best for very small-chested women, but a striking design that would photograph well.

A more than basic blazer
This is a great piece to throw on over a more intricate top for a night out. I wore it to both a club and out to dinner and it worked great for both, as it's easy to dress up and dress down. I ordered a 6 and a 4 as backup and while both fit, the 4 provided the more fitted look I was hoping for. Nothing show-stopping, but it's a versatile piece you'll get more than your money's worth for.

Stunning dress that's easy to wear
I wore this out to a club while on vacation in Cancun. The scuba fabric is very stretchy so I went with the small, as the medium puckered around the waist due to extra fabric. The length was perfect for me at 5'7", though as others commented, it does tend to ride up while dancing. Regardless, it's a stunning pattern and very comfortable to wear.
