Blue Tiered Mini Dress
Peter Som x RTR
Size Worn: 8
Usual Size: 8
Height: 5' 7"
Weight: 150lbs
Bust: 38C
Comfortable, but doesn't have pockets
Kept me at a comfortable temperature for a 5-hour flight, but doesn't have pockets. Stretches out with wear. Excellent for lounging, but definitely not my first choice for prolonged wear outside the home.

I felt like a Disney princess!
This dress is officially one of my favorite rentals! I wore it to a black tie gala where everyone looked stunning, yet I still received multiple compliments and caught the gaze of many guests, almost to the point of discomfort (lol). In terms of sizing, the size 8 fit me perfectly (I typically wear a size 6 in casual dresses and size 8/10 in formal gowns). The material definitely has no give, but was fortunately thick enough where I didn't need to wear a bra. Lengthwise, the dress came slightly off the floor with 3" heels. Best of all, this dress has pockets! For right event, I would definitely recommend this dress!

Me + this dress = NSFW
This is the first item I have rented that has caused utter disappointment. The style and print is perfect for fall, but there are just so many issues. The material is thin and crepe-like. The cut is too low. The dress fits with space in my waist and hips, but as others have mentioned, there are gaping holes between the buttons at larger areas (aka my chest). The moment I move a few steps, a button (or three) comes undone. I'm honestly unsure if ordering a size will cut it. But if you're devoid of any curves, this dress would be perfect for you.

Cute, if you put in the effort!
I really liked this top! And literally for all the reasons others didn't like it. The fabric was thick, but that means it wasn't sheer and was perfect for Fall. The fabric was also stiff, but once I figured out how to tie the front knot, the top kept its shape all day. Sure, if you tie the knot too high up, your midriff will show. But if you tie the knot loosely and tighten the knot by fluffling out the front, you'll achieve the same look I was able to achieve with high-waisted bottoms. I would certainly recommend this top if you're willing to mess around with it to perfect your OOTD.

Flirty dress, perfect for outings on a sunny day!
This was a fun and comfortable dress, perfect for a sunny afternoon out. The fabric is light allowing for more airy movement. The dress is secured at the waist with silk ties. Figuring out how to secure the dress may be a bit complicated, but once you figure it out, the ties help provide the illusion of a smaller waist line and more of an hour-glass figure. The cut at the bust is a little lower than what I normally prefer, but with the right undergarments, it worked. With the right accessories, it made for an excellent everyday outfit.

Perfect for a formal event!
I wore this dress for a black tie wedding and received tons of compliments! It was simple and classic without being overstated. I have a boxy figure with broad shoulders, but the dress fit was still flattering with the skirt falling in a way to compliment my waistline and hips. Surprisingly, the sleeves stayed in place; however, the dress would shift to the left/right, requiring several adjustments re-centering the dress on my body throughout the evening. Overall, I would still recommend renting this dress for the right occasion!

Simple and classic
I wore this dress for my engagement photo shoot. It was an absolutely beautiful and fun dress to take pictures in! The dress was light, the skirt was flowy, and the print was the perfect touch to brighten up the backdrop of marble white. I would definitely recommend renting this dress!

Stylish, versatile, and very comfortable!
This coat is by far my favorite rental! I had my doubts when it first arrived as it was obvious that it had been worn and washed several times before I had received it. But I've had it for over a month now with my unlimited subscription and receive compliments on it almost every time I wear it. It essentially works for any occasion, whether casual or more dressy. It's also warm without being too heavy. I recommend going up one size as it gets tight in the arms when layering; plus it'll provide more of that over-sized look.

Classy little red dress
The waist of this dress is tight (as is evident in some of the other reviewers' pictures), but this worked to my benefit as it provided shape to my boxy athletic figure. The top of the dress fit my relatively larger bust perfectly. The dress material is a shiny and smooth red satin and there are pockets. Only downsides were that I couldn't really lift my arms (I have broad shoulders), the tight waist did not allow me to slouch whatsoever while sitting, and the dress hem/tacking is visible. Regardless, I received tons of compliments.

Colorful and classy!
Wore this dress for a wedding cruise and received tons of compliments! The material was thick, but the dress was still breathable without being too heavy. The colors were the perfect shade of colors (not too bright or dark) and the gold detailing on the dress really popped. The only con is that the material tends to bunch at the seam where the bodice connects to the skirt (because the material is so thick), which made the dress look slightly unflattering at specific angles.

Super cute AND flattering!
Dressed this romper up with a statement necklace and nude strappy heels, and it was PERFECT for a bachelorette party! It was flattering despite my broad shoulders, larger bust, and lack of a waist. I kept the complements coming by wearing it again the same week for an engagement party.

Classy LBD!
I rented this dress as formal attire for a bachelorette cruise. It was classy, yet sexy showing off just the right amount of skin. The dress definitely runs large. Per reviews of other dresses from the same designer, reviewers recommended ordering up a size. Being that I typically wear size 6/8 in dresses, I rented a size 8 and backup 10, but was swimming in the 8, especially up top (despite being fairly busty!). Luckily, a handful of safety pins later, I was able to make the dress work.

Simple, yet unique!
This dress was SO comfortable on. The fabric was on the heavier side which made the dress feel luxurious. The feminine A-line skirt was full and kept it's shape. I have broader shoulders and a larger bust, but the dress still looked amazing on (contrary to the opinions of a previous reviewer). Both walking through the city of Boston AND at the rehearsal dinner I attended, I recieved tons of compliments. Cons: The bust area of this dress was definitely cut unevenly (but I doubt anyone but me noticed). The fit around the waist area also had extra space, so if you have a smaller bust and waist, I'd definitely size down!

Stunning dress!
Wore this dress for an afternoon wedding and it was absolutely stunning! The understated color of the dress coupled perfectly with the shimmering quality from the sequins. Aside from the itchiness/discomfort (due to the sequins) from first putting the dress on, the dress was very comfortable to wear and move in. It wasn't too heavy either. Cons: The lining is longer than the dress (both the dress I wore and the back up were like this). In person, the dress color is closer to a light blue than lilac.
