Elegant for Fall Black Tie Affairs
I wore this to a fall black tie wedding in Cape Cod. I felt so confident in this dress! The bow in the back and the keyhole cleavage made me feel so feminine. I would only say it loses half a star because another girl at my table had the same dress ๐ I would recommend this dress for the girls with curves for sure!

Never Received So Many Compliments!
I wore this dress to a wedding where my boyfriend was the best man. I sent a photo to my best friend prior to the wedding and she told me she loved the dress. I brushed it off thinking she was just being a good friend lol. At the wedding, I had at least five more people come up to me and tell me how much they loved the dress! Itโs also super comfortable as far as dresses go. Absolutely rent this dress!

Needed shapewear but beautiful!
Attended my alma mater's local chapter's gala and received many compliments on this dress which matched our school colors. The dress was a bit tight across the midsection (so it showed everything) but was overall quite comfortable. I received many compliments on matching school pride and how I looked!

Flowy and Fun!
I rented this dress for a wedding at an arboretum. The 12 was too tight, but the 14 zipped perfectly. However, I was swimming in the shoulder and bust area! Huge shout out to Bailey at the Chicago store for pinning the dress during my try on so I could wear it to the wedding. I was able to twirl all night in the dress with no issue! Such a fun dress for a more causal wedding.

Beautiful Dress!!!
I rented this for a friend's wedding, and I felt so good about myself in this dress. It does cling a bit, so Spanx might be a good idea, but this is one of my favorite dresses I've rented. I am so happy I got this dress and had a great time at the wedding!!! Everyone said I looked good too, which was an added bonus! I wore the 12 (the 14 was way too big).

From Broken Hearted to Breathtaker!
I was broken up with by my boyfriend of over one and a half years right before the wedding we were supposed to attend last weekend (it was my friend's wedding). I knew I needed to look great for this wedding to make myself feel better. My dress I originally ordered was way too long, so in ice-cream bloated desperation, I found this dress. I tried it on and I felt sexy, which says a lot for someone who had been binging on wine and chocolate for three days. At the wedding, everyone (including those I didn't know) told me they loved my dress -- one girl even asked where she could get it! Thanks RTR, you always have my back!

Wedding Fun
I've gained a bit of weight and I was scared to rent a dress like I used to in college. Luckily, I found a dress I felt comfortable in and didn't make me feel bad. I looked great for my friend's wedding, and I loved my experience at the Washington, DC store (mostly because of the fun I had meeting the other women trying on dresses - the staff was lacking). Planning to use RTR again this fall for another wedding (hopefully with a smaller size too!).

Daytime Event Perfection
Wore this to a fundraising brunch and the dress fit perfectly! I literally picked it out in the store the night before the event, and I was worried RTR wouldn't come through. I was wrong! I received so many compliments on this shift dress - it's elegant and needs little accessorizing. I am 5'4" and a traditional hour glass shape, and I was surprised with how the shift dress worked for my body shape.
