Good rental!
I really liked this. The straps were kind of annoying but I’d rent again!

Blue Floral Tie Strap Dress
Jason Wu x RTR
Size Worn: 10
Usual Size: 10
Height: 5' 3"
Weight: 150lbs
Bust: 34B
Perfection!
Love love love this dress. Fit like a glove and was super comfortable! There's a tiny bit of stretch but nothing too crazy. I'm smaller on top so the neckline was a little big but I still loved it and it looked great.

A little edge!
I ended up wearing this to see Andy Cohen. It was the perfect mix of fancy and edge. The quality was good, and the fit was pretty true to size. My only complaint was that the hem really restricted how big of a step I could take.

Tolstoy Eco-Leather Skirt

Perfect!
This dress runs a little big.. I'm normally a standard medium, but I ended up wearing the small, especially because I'm quite small on top. I'm also 4 months pregnant and had room in the stomach. There's no stretch in the fabric, but this is pretty roomy!

This gown was absolutely stunning and was so comfortable. It's perfect for curvy girls and the fabric has a little stretch.

Didn't want to send this gem back!
I took a gamble on this dress since there were zero reviews, but I hit the lottery! This dress is the perfect amount of sexy and sophisticated! It's got stretch so it hugs your curves perfectly. I'm so sad to send it back, but I will absolutely rent this one again!! The back is open so you can't wear a traditional bra, but that was totally fine for me! I'm also on the shorter size (5'2); the dress came down to the top of my calf which was perfect. You won't be upset renting this one!

Black Emery Dress
Dress The Population

Super cute!
I wore this to a rehearsal dinner in August. The material is a little thicker, but it was comfortable. I could have worn the 8, but wouldn't have been comfortable as there's really no stretch to it. It's a great color and made me feel great!

Amazing!
If you need a gown, this is a must! The material has some stretch and holds you in all night!! So flattering on my curves; I got TONS of compliments! I'd rent again for another formal event!

Perfect for a shower
Great little dress for a bridal shower. I love the pockets, but with my hour glass shape I probably could have done without them. I did love wearing it though.

Red Taliya Dress

Size Worn: 8
Usual Size: 8
Height: 5' 3"

Perfect!
This dress ran pretty true to size, but wearing the 12 gave me a little extra length and wasn't as tight on my bottom. The sequins didn't bother my arms at all. Perfect for a summer daytime wedding

My favorite!!
I wore this dress to a baby shower and it was perfect! The 6 was a little large, but it made the length in the front perfect. I actually ended up buying this dress recently so I can wear it more often!

Slimming!
I wore this dress to a baby shower and received TONS of compliments. It was a thicker material that kind of holds you in. I would totally rent this dress again- it made me look and feel amazing. I'm glad I ordered a size smaller for my backup size. I ended up wearing the 6 which was a little tight, but for a sitting event it was fine. I didn't try on the 8, so I can't speak to how that fits. But I was very happy!!

This dress is so pretty on. But, it was the itchiest thing I've ever worn. I couldn't rent it again bc I was scratching all night.

A Little Blush Dress

Fun but not my favorite
I ended up wearing the medium slip which fit perfectly and the large lace over lay to give me a little more length. Wearing both mediums would have been fine but a little short for my taste. It was a cute dress and perfect for a rehearsal dinner

Fabulous!
I wore this dress to a bridal shower in March and it was awesome. There's a little bit of stretch which made it so comfortable to wear all day. I can't wait to rent it again!

Flattering!!
I totally love this dress.. I was surprised at how flattering the peplum was on my hourglass-ish shape. I gave birth to my son about 7 month ago.. I haven't seen many of the people at this wedding in over a year. I had several people ask if I had a baby because it didn't look like it. I can't wait to rent it again!! My biggest gripe is that the bottom hem is super tight.. Obviously I dealt with it though.

Rumor Says Dress

Perfect for hiding trouble spots!
I've rented this dress in navy previously so I was familiar with the sizing which is why I decided to rent it for a summer wedding. I had a baby 4 months ago, so I'm still not quite back to where I would like to be. This dress made me feel elegant and I felt like I did not look like I recently had a baby. The cut is super flattering for really any body shape. I will continue to rent this dress until I run out of places to wear it!

Perfect!
I wore this dress to my son's christening ... he's 4 months old, so I still have more baby weight than I would like. This dress made me feel really good and was extremely flattering from the front. Not so much from the side, but luckily that was a "candid" shot ;) The material is super stretchy and was comfortable even in the summer. I can't wait to rent it again.

Yikes!
Where do I even begin!! The dress came and looked super cute on the hanger, so I quickly tried it on. My first issue is the 2 hooks and 1 button that hold the dress on your body. They are flimsy at best and worthy of a Janet Jackson wardrobe malfunction. I don't think the description of this dress as a "wrap" is really a fair one. Next, where the hem meets in the front is SO high (I'm only 5'3''). My husband walked in and literally said "that's a cute top, but it thought you got a dress". There was no way of walking or sitting without showing off my who-ha. I know people said that in previous reviews but many seemed to be taller than me. I'm sure this dress is good for others, maybe with a different body shape than mine? Needless to say I promptly returned this dress and will just wear something I already own (boring)! Lol

Cute but small
I thought this dress would be perfect for my goddaughters baptism. Unfortunately, it was quite snug in the hips. I ended up wearing my back up dress, which was totally fine. I'd imagine this dress may be better for someone whose hips and thighs aren't as wide as mine. Super cute though!

Flattering!!
This dress was perfect for my Goddaughters Christening. It was extremely comfortable and flattering! It also hid my very new baby bump. I sized up more for comfort and my own self consciousness ... The 6 probably would have been fine.

Perfect for a fall wedding!
This dress runs fairly true to size, but the material has some stretch to it, so it is forgiving. The top of the dress was slightly large, but my shoulders are on the narrower side. I loved the simplicity of this dress and had fun deciding how to accessorize. It worked out perfectly for the fall wedding we were at!! I'd rent it again, for sure.

Everyone needs a little sparkle!
I absolutely LOVED this dress. The dress was perfect for a fall wedding in Philadelphia at a fabulous location. It does run a little large though. I usually wear a 6 and I am a pear shape. I knew I didn't have to worry about my hips with the cut of this dress, but I could have used a smaller size on top; I had some room.

Perfection!
I absolutely loved this dress! I rented it for a summer wedding and it was amazing. The fabric is light and and the front flows very nicely. After a night of eating and drinking it hides everything. I got so many compliments on my dress and I wish I needed to rent it again for another event!

Super cute!
I loved this dress! I'm pear shaped and I was not sure how a shift dress would look on me so I ordered the 6 and the 8. The 6 fit better on top, but was pulling at my hips/thighs. The 8 was a little long in the arms and was a little snug on my thighs which was to be expected - I wore it anyway and got tons of compliments. I would absolutely rent it again.
