So fun! And great for dinner out :)
Super unique and comfy dress! Had to wear a sticky bra given the straps, but it was worth it. Loved the color, and the swingy oversized skirt made me feel very fashionable. Plus there was lots of room for dinner :)

Odd fit, didn't wear
The sleeves were extremely tight and the peasant cut looked very conservative on me. Didn't feel comfortable and I didn't wear it.

Just OK
Rented for an event and it got the job done. The halter top was very narrow and required a racerback bra. The color was just OK on my skin tone.

Cute but not my favorite
Loved the button down front and the collar! Fun color. Tie waist was a nice detail but kept riding up to under my bust, making it less flattering in the midsection.

Fun and comfortable but not the most flattering
Loved the fringe skirt and the length! Wore to a baby shower. Neckline was fine for a weekend event but too low for work.

Super cute!
Very flattering dress, would be perfect for a date! Didn't end up wearing because I found a different option and felt it was a bit low cut for a family party, but planning to rent again for a different occasion!

Wrinkly but loved this dress!
Rented for a white party and found this dress super flattering and comfortable! Wasn't see through (although I did wear nude undergarments). Did wrinkle pretty badly in my suitcase and needed steaming or ironing when I arrived.

Beautiful color but small
The buttons down the front pulled so it looked like it was way too small, but it didn't feel too tight somehow? Beautiful color. Belt gave it a cardigan sort of feel.

Itchy but lots of compliments!
Loved the color of this dress, and got lots of compliments! The mesh sleeves were a very cool touch, although a bit itchy. XL was maybe a little big for me, but meant I wasn't self-conscious about my midsection, so that was a plus. Would rent again.

Fit, but wasn't particularly flattering - where the waist hit made me look a little pregnant. Wouldn't rent again.

Unique sweater dress with interesting details
Loved the unique details on this sweater dress! Wore to work with tights and boots. Fabric was a bit itchy but it didn't bother me too much. Warm for winter.

Fun fall dress
Really loved this dress! I rented it for a vacation and wore it around wineries in Napa, but also wore it to work once - was appropriate for both settings. Paired well with boots and sneakers. Size was perfect, no issues with the fit. Fabric traveled well.

A bit large but I don't care!
Loved this dress so much I couldn't send it back! The XL is probably too big for me, but I honestly didn't care - it made it very comfortable, and I could cinch it at the waist with the belt. Fabulous color for fall/winter. Got many compliments!

Good for chilly date nights
Rented for work, but ended up wearing for a date because the slit was a little high for work (even with tights). Perfect for a chilly January date night. Wore with tights and knee high boots.

Very flattering!
I really loved this dress! Wore it to a February baby shower in Boston and it was warm enough for the colder weather. The slit is a little high for a work setting, but perfect for less formal events. I found the twist at the stomach to be flattering. Length was perfect (wore with sneakers).

Fit was OK, but just meh
It fit me, but it wasn't the most flattering or interesting dress. Fabric was pretty thin and it clung in all the wrong places. Didn't end up wearing it, and wouldn't rent it again.

Fun! Not your typical sweater dress!
Super fun sweater dress with some interesting design features! I loved the sleeve but can understand that it's not for everyone. For me it was a smidge short for work but was OK when wearing it with tights.

Comfy and a tad oversized
Super comfy sweaterdress! Rented a large and it was probably a bit big on me, but I think the oversized vibe worked for this style. Was able to pull it in at the waist with the belt. V-neck was appropriate for work and didn't have to wear a cami underneath. Wore with both boots and sneakers.

Schoolgirl vibes weren't working for me
Interesting dress, but it just wasn't my cup of tea. I went to a school with a uniform, and it gave me flashbacks to middle school. Not particularly flattering.

Nice sweaterdress, can be dressed up or down!
I kept reaching for this during my rental so I ended up buying it! Wore to work several times and out for a date. Could dress up with heeled boots or dress down with white sneakers. No pulling of the buttons down the front, which is frankly a miracle. Maybe a tad long for my prorportions but it didn't bother me.

Snug to zip but very flattering
A bit tough to zip up the side (over bust), but was very comfortable and flattering once zipped. Dress was lined so it wasn't see through at all, but it did make it a bit heavier than I expected. Perfect for a nicer dinner out on vacation.

Super comfy coverup to wear over bathing suit on vacation. Length of dress and sleeves was great, hit at just the right spots. Material was a little thicker than expected but I didn't mind.

Loved this jumpsuit!
Originally rented for vacation, but loved it so much I purchased it! Wore to work (under a denim jacket), brunch, happy hour, date night. Can be dressed up or down easily. Hoping to get lots of use out of it this summer. Tad long on me when wearing flats (have to lift legs going up stairs), but I don't mind it. I'm small chested so able to wear it without a bra, which is great.

Nice casual work option
Wore to work several times, often under a denim jacket. Looks like a skirt and top. Comfortable and fit well, but looked a bit odd on Zoom meetings given the simplicity of the top. Pockets are a plus!

Literally arrived with tags on. Fun and flattering dress. Just tight enough to feel supported without being constricted. Neckline felt a tad low for work, but that may be because I sized up. Very fun outfit for a day out!

Nice dress, a little revealing for work
Neckline was a little low for my comfort level at work, so wore a tank underneath. This is a true wrap dress so the slit also tended to fall open, which made me feel a little uncomfortable at work. Was more fun for dinner with friends!

Great work dress with a bit of pizzaz
Super fun dress for work, got many compliments. Since it's a true wrap dress, it was easy to make the waist work for me. Did have to wear a cami underneath because the v-neck is a little to low for my workplace.

Super stylish and fun - best color!!
LOVED this dress! It was very comfortable, easy to dance in, and I received many compliments on the color and style. I really liked the neoprene/scuba fabric. I'm super clumsy and ended up spilling red pasta sauce on the dress. Thank heavens it wiped off without leaving a mark! I wore it on a cooler day, but I could see the dress being a little warm if the weather was hot. Both the 4 and the 6 fit me, but I went with the larger size for a little more comfort/wiggle room through the hips. It was a teeny tiny bit loose on the top, but nothing super problematic. Unlike many of the other reviewers, I was able to wear a racerback bra without it showing. (I could have gone braless, but found that wearing a bra resulted in a nicer shape/profile).

Cute clutch, tricky to close!
Very stylish clutch, loved the color! It was a little heavier than expected, but that wasn't a problem. I did have some trouble fitting in all the things that I wanted to bring (e.g., compact mirror, phone charger) and spent some time throughout the event struggling to get it closed. But overall, I really liked it (and got a few compliments to boot!)

Super comfortable dress for a summer wedding!
Very comfortable dress! Loved the color, and it felt appropriate for a church wedding and the following country club reception. I wore the size 4, but the size 2 would have also worked - the lace on that size just seemed a little more worn, and the size 4 looked newer. Overall excellent dress, would rent again!

Love, love, LOVE this necklace!
Rented this with the Cushnie et Ochs "Just a Sheer Thing" dress for my birthday, and did NOT want to send the necklace back! I ended up wearing it both for a birthday celebration and out for a dinner date the next day. It is definitely a statement piece, but was not overly large or heavy - it was a comfortable weight and felt expensive! It laid nicely across my collarbone, and I thought that it hit in a perfect place for both the dress and for a more casual top. I also loved the sea foam/teal color, which is unique for such a bold statement necklace. It's one of my favorite pieces I've gotten from RTR thus far, and even now I think about ways to wear it and wish that I owned it! GREAT accessory!!!

Fun and different!
First RTR experience! Rented this dress for my birthday and wore it out to dinner and for drinks. It hugged every curve but was a very flattering cut. As other reviewers have said, you can't really wear a traditional bra with this dress. Even though I am smaller-chested I felt uncomfortable going bra-less as this dress did not have THAT much built-in support. I ended up buying a stick-on bra just to wear with this dress. Although I got lots of compliments, I did find myself adjusting the dress (pulling on the hem, etc.) several times over the course of the night. Overall, I enjoyed wearing this dress but was not in love with it and likely would not rent this dress again.

Too Big for Small Hands
I received this as a "mystery bling" offer along with my rental of the Monique Lhullier Alice Dress. While it went nicely with the white belt that I chose to wear with the dress, and I loved the design of the ring, I was disappointed in the overall size and fit of the ring. It looked rather large on my small hands, and definitely had to be worn on my third finger (on any other finger, it would have run over the edge of my hand). In addition, I had to put tape around the band in order to make it fit even remotely - even on the biggest of my fingers! Finally, when I put the ring down on a bathroom counter to wash my hands, one of the jewels fell off! I didn't want to risk losing any others, so I kept it in my bag for the rest of the night. It was disappointing that I couldn't wear it for the entirety of the event!
