Great fit - holds everything in!
I loved this dress! I'm very self conscious of my mid-section, and my "skinny girl spare tire" in particular. So I usually really don't feel good in dresses that hug my middle. But this dress was totally flattering! The fabric is thick enough to hold in my weird bumps. It hit me just below the knee, which was perfect. I felt very sophisticated in this dress and will definitely rent it again.

Lightweight and gorgeous
I love these earrings! I've worn them both to work (with a toned down all-black outfit) and on evening dates. They really are very versatile. They are actually beaded, not metal, so they are VERY light even though they look heavy. Really beautiful and I will definitely rent them again via Unlimited. I'd keep them longer, but they are such a statement piece, I feel like I probably shouldn't keep wearing them several times a week like I have been doing! Wish I owned these!

Love this blazer!
This blazer is very high in the back, but I felt that it still worked in my conservative office. Just brings enough uniqueness. The cut from the front is very flattering and while I normally feel awkward in three quarter sleeves at work, these hit me in just the right place. Will definitely rent again via Unlimited.

LOOOOOOVE this jacket!!!
I was so excited for this jacket to arrive, and it is even better in person! I wore it to a casual Friday work lunch, paired with a plain white tee, jeans and flats. I had SO many compliments! It is silkier and shinier than I thought it would be, but it's great. I wish I had maybe ordered one size up as the arms are pretty skinny a tad bit short. I love it even more than the white Rebecca Minkoff jacket that was my prior favorite RTR work piece. Don't want to give it back!!

Classy but casual
I was expecting this bag to be stiffer.... but it's very soft, floppy leather. Great for throwing my work folders in. The strap (both the handles and the longer strap) are both too short to throw over your shoulder, so this is definitely bag that you have to hold, or throw over your wrist. I'm ok with that for a rental, but if I were to buy a bag, I'd want it to be shoulder friendly. But all in all, a nice bag!

Delicate, shapeless, and really long :(
I needed a unique, sparly, mini-dress for a concert and afterparty in Vegas. I was so excited to get this dress, but it ended up a big disapointment. First, the sequins are all black, with the exception of the two white stripes on the front. The photo of the model makes it seem like there was a unique and pretty variation, but that must just be the lights reflecting off the sequins (the dress is VERY shiny - so would probably look extremely cool in a place with interesting lighting.... but in my house it just looked all black and boring, with weird white lines on my hip bones). Also, I have never felt like a dress was SO delicate. I was scared to sit, lest I damage the sequins (I love sequin dresses, and I've never felt this way in one before). Also, the material is so light... almost like cobwebs? Or how pantyhose is after you just take it off? Light, and shapeless. There is definitly no shape to the dress at all. I pulled out all my most intense shapewear and tried it on again and it was a little better, but still not very flattering. It was also sooo long on me. I know I'm short (5"4), but this dress hit me right in middle of my knee - nowhere near the mini I was hoping for to wear out to a concert and parties in Vegas. I returned without wearing.

So much fun, but probably best for taller girls.
I was sooo excited to get this dress, and it is just as pretty and fun in person as on the model. Unfortunately, I have a ridiculously short torso (I'm only 5'3 and on top of that I'm aaallll leg). To wear this I would have needed an inch or two taken out of the middle of the dress. I tried folding it over around the waist, but with the pattern and the open back it just didn't work. But if you have a normal or long torso, this would be the best dress ever!!! (Although, you definitely need someone available to help you tie the bow in the back after you've put the dress on.)

Ok dress for work
Like all the other reviews, the weirdness of the collar cannot be overstated. There is no way to keep it from falling into the dress except with fashion tape. Also the stitching on the right sleeve is missing, so I had to keep tucking the end of the fabric under so the raw edge wasn't showing. Pros are the nice, sturdy fabric, the work appropriate sleeves and length, and the nice lining. But it's definitely not a wow dress. I rented it as part of my Unlimited account just as a normal work dress, so I suppose it fulfilled what I wanted it to.

Love this for work
I love this jacket! I recieved it as part of my Unlimited order, and it still had the tags on. It's crisp and professional, but still modern and youthful - it's perfect for casual Fridays in my fairly conservative law office. I do wish I had ordered the 4 instead of the 6 though, as the arms are a little long for me and I'm not planning on wearing it zipped up anyway. Great piece!

A little to short in the back
Had to return this without wearing it... The super steep cut was a little too much. This jacket is very short in the back and seemed awkward to me. I also wasn't a fan of the trim, which felt like a weird canvas type material.

I love this super soft, roomy bag.
I love this super soft, roomy bag. And the color is so lovely! This bag brightens my day and I think both straps are the perfect length (which is usually my biggest complaint about bags). I've had this for a few weeks with my Unlimited rental, and I don't want to give it up!

Fun, but awkwardly short strap
This is a cute bag, but the shoulder strap is an odd length. I wish it were long enough to make it a cross-body bag! Instead it just hit me at a weird place.

So fun to wear!
I wore this for my wedding rehearsal and rehearsal dinner. It was such a fun dress and a cheeky take on formal wear. Super comfortable, loved that I could wear a normal bra, and it was a perfect not to short/not too long length for my 5'4 frame. I would love to rent this dress again.

My favorite RTR dress ever!
I wouldn't have noticed this dress online, but I saw it in the Vegas store and it was SO bright and cute! I loved, loved, loved it. It makes you look all leg, which is super sexy. But at the same time the high neck and the sleeves make it cute. The colors are beautiful. I wish I could own this dress - I'd wear it EVERYWHERE! Will definitely be renting again soon.

Fun dress... But too small for me
The fabric of this dress was not expected - my first Clover Canton rental and I didn't realize it would be a thick, wet-suit type fabric. Very tight and cinching but the small made me feel a but like a sausage. A medium would have probably been just perfect though. Beautiful dress and I'll try Clove Canyon again next time in a Medium.

Favorite rental EVER
I've loved so many of my RTR rentals, but this one blew them all away. Wore it to a concert and club in Vegas and felt like a star. The sequins are so pretty - each is black on one side and gold on the other so you change the pattern just by running your hand across the dress and flipping over the sequins. The back is gorgeous and sexy. Perfect length too although it might be pretty short on taller girls. Wore it with the breast lift tape and a nubra. Backless dresses are hard for me because the girls need a lot if support, but the dress was surprisingly fitted in front which helped a lot. Perfect perfect night out rental and I can't wait to rent it again.

Too small... plus a little worse for wear
I was so so looking forward to wearing this dress, but sadly only the small was available and it didn't fit around my rib-cage, just below my bust. This is that black band that doesn't stretch at all. I was a little surprised because I'm kind of tiny there. The material was also heavier than I expected, but I've never worn Herve before so maybe that's how they all are. The white stripe that runs down the back of the dress (where the zipper is) also looked a little dingy. It wouldn't have really bothered me since I was planning on wearing it to a concert and afterparty where no one would have noticed, but thought I'd mention it anyway. Cute neckline though, and such a cute design. For the right occasion I might try again if there was a medium available.

Super short, super sexy
This dress is super hot! I ended up wearing a different rental out to my event, but this dress was amazing. I didn't have the right equipment though to pull it off. Even though I'm a D, the dress was still too big in the chest. I didn't have any fashion tape on hand to hoist the straps up like I needed. I will likely rent again though, and be sure to order fashion tape.

So many sparkles!
I loved this dress. It is super hot. The only problem I had was that I'm a D and this was my first attempt using a Nubra. It didn't work out all that well. I didn't feel supported and it wasn't a super flattering shape up top. But, regardless I still loved wearing the dress and didn't want to take it off at the end of the night.

Had potential... just way too big
I had really high hopes for this dress, but both sizes were way too big. I'm usually a six, but based on some of the reviews saying it ran small in the chest I opted for an 8 in my back up size. Even the 6 was way, way too large. I'm not a skinny girl, but I could grab handfuls of fabric around my waist and hips. It also hit me just at the knees, which was a really awkward length. All together, I looked super dowdy in this dress, when I was hoping for a clingy, sexy, fitted shape. Pros: Cute saturated color. The material is... interesting. Kind of like stretchy parachute material?? That sounds unpleasant, but if it had fit, I would have really liked it.

Tight and really flattering!
I loved this dress. It was pretty tight, but I felt like it was ok for the wedding I was at, especially since the fabric is thick, the neck is high and it has cap sleeves. It does ride up, but it was fine, especially if you are shorter like I am. The fold scrolls are really beautiful! Like another reviewer said, there is no need to wear spanx under this dress. It is a little itchy, but it didn't bother me at all. Definitely not at all a typical LBD. Wish I could have kept it! Would absolutely rent again.

Loved it! Flattering and festive!
I wore this to a Indian wedding pre-party, where I was one of the few guests without a sari. But the sequin and sparkles on this cocktail dress were perfect! I could have worn either the 6 or the 8, but I felt like the 8 was a little droopy at the botton. The 6 was definitely fitted (not like pictured on the model) but it was really flattering. I would absolutely rent again. Lots of compliments!
