Beautiful shade of blue!
I really liked this dress with a few minor complaints. The wrap part in the chest area didn't sit very well on my chest and gapped a lot when sitting down. There are also some weird spaghetti straps in the back that kept sticking out which makes the dress seem less classy (I wore a strapless bra so didn't have to worry about bra straps - not sure if that would have had the same issue). Other than those two minor details, I loved how flowy this dress was. It's a super flattering fit and color. It wasn't tight around the ribs/arms which are normally my problem areas. Another successful RTR experience!

So comfortable!
I really liked this rental! The fabric was really soft and stretchy but still flattering. It hit at the knees and I wish it would have been a couple inches shorter but that's my only small complaint! It was perfect for an outdoor garden wedding ceremony!

Great dress!
I didn't end up wearing this dress but I loved it!! RTR couldn't send one of my sizes in this dress so they also sent my backup dress choice which was basically the same dress but a mint and blue color combo. The fabric of this dress was more soft and forgiving than the other dress but I ended up wearing the mint/blue one because it fit the occasion better. I would definitely rent this dress again! It's flattering in all the right places. The only hesitation I have toward it is that it's a bit short so you'd need to be careful depending on the formality of the event you're wearing it to.

Beautiful dress!
Another RTR success! After three rentals, I'm officially obsessed and look forward to having an event I can rent a dress for. This dress is such a beautiful color. The arms on the dress were slightly tight but the fabric has some give to it, so they stretched out after even just the time I tried it on. I usually have issues with the arms, though. It's a great length for a more formal affair (I wore to my work's holiday party). The fabric takes some getting used to (slightly itchy at first) but once I was at my event, I forgot about it. I would definitely rent it again!

Such a comfy dress!
I loved this dress!! So comfortable and flattering. I had to go up a size to allow for more room in the arms (I often have issues with clothes too tight in the arms) but didn't have any issues with arm movement in the bigger size. The bigger size made it a little more roomy in the tummy area but I didn't mind that. This dress is perfect for a more formal wedding or perhaps a holiday party.

My first RTR rental!
This was my first rental and I can officially say I'm hooked on RTR! This dress is so beautiful and very flattering. The color is so bright and perfect. Like others mentioned, the straps didn't stay up very well and I felt like I was constantly pulling them up. Not a huge deal but a little annoying. I didn't have issues with the lining peeking out like some mentioned. I will say that it was a little tricky to move around in this dress so make sure you don't need to do much bending or getting in/out of vehicles and stuff like that.
