I rented this dress to wear for professional headshots and it was perfect. There was just enough detail to make it interesting and it was a flattering fit and color. I'm typically a size 8 in dresses, but definitely have a few Covid pounds on me, but the 8 still fit well.

I loved this dress. I did not want to return it. It was incredibly comfortable and easy to wear, and every time I wore it I received positive feedback from people I saw. Even just walking the dog. The dress truly just feels like summer. One of my favorite little things was that I could wear a regular bra with the dress. I wore it casually around the house, and popped on heels and jewelry when I went out. This isn't always the best length on me because I have athletic calves, but this dress worked.

I rented this dress because of the good reviews, and they were all true. This was a SUPER fun summer dress, I felt like a 90s Barbie in the best way. I was a little bit worried about "mom pouch" in this dress but it was very forgiving. (I wasn't worried enough to want to wear shapewear under it in the summer.)

I LOVED this piece. It was cute, and one of the most comfortable things I've ever worn. I wore it at home dressed up a little for online work meetings, and also on vacation while reading in a hammock. Given the ruffle I didn't have to wear a bra which was a plus. The length was good for tall girls and it has pockets. Something that can easily be worn through different seasons. I will rent this one again.

Either this runs a little small of Covid is catching up with me, but I'm a pretty solid 8 and have worn this designer before and this one just didn't fit comfortably enough to wear out. Because it was a little tight, it also pulled a little too much in length. That being said, the color was fantastic and the cut was fun, the cutout was an unexpected detail in a piece like this but still classy. I will rent this again in a size up.

This was a fun piece that could be dressed up or down. I wore it on weekends casual, but could easily have popped on nicer shoes and jewelry and worn it out at night. It was very comfortable, and I got a lot of positive feedback when I wore it. I had a hard time keeping the top set correctly to not show my bra. This didn't feel like a piece I could go braless with either. As a taller woman, this can be a hard length for me, but this worked, which was really great. Worth the chance, especially if you have a smaller chest or feel comfortable without a bra.

I rented these pants for a work event and they were perfect. I'm between an 8 & 10 in pants, and the 8 fit well. They are beautiful pants and were comfortable for the 12 hour day I needed them for. The standard size was long enough for me, so may be too long for someone shorter. I'll definitely rent these again, and am still thinking about purchasing them!

This is one of the most beautiful gowns I've ever worn. The top is wide, and required some tape to hold things up and in, but it was well worth the effort. I was able to dance in the dress, and got compliments all night long. Highly recommend this for a formal affair.

This dress is beautiful in person. The colors are vivid and the fit is very flattering. I'm only sorry I don't have a photo to share. I wasn't able to wear a bra, but there was enough support in the dress I could get away with just nipple covers. I would rent this again for the right event.

As shared in other reviews this dress runs a little small, but I still felt comfortable in the medium (I'm a pretty solid 8 in a dress). It is a sequin dress so there was a little bit of rubbing/irritation under the arms but not as much as in some others I've worn. I felt classy and sexy in this dress thanks to the cut of the back. I'd recommend it to anyone drawn to this style.

I rented the large knowing I was between sizes and I wish I held out for the medium. It looked pretty cute on, I think, but I was billowy in photos and I was a bit self-conscious. It was super comfortable for a night out for eating, drinking and dancing.

This dress was sent to me when my original choice wasn't available, and it was a complete win for me. The color was beautiful, and I found the fit forgiving on my figure. I'm only sorry I don't have any full body photos that I can share to prove it. I was able to wear a strapless bra and spanx without any visible lines. I could have gone braless, but am more comfortable with one on. Based on other photos I saw I was nervous about how the neckline would lie on me, but it was perfect. I've rented one Christian Siriano dress before and wore an 8, but needed a 10 in this one. The dress is well made and if the opportunity came up I would certainly rent it again.

I found the bust and back area tight, but I was able to wear the dress without a bra, still feeling supported and covered enough in the 8, and that solved any issues I was having. I found the neckline flattering and loved having the pockets. Both dresses I received had been altered by previous customers but as always RTR customer service was great in helping me out. One thing I didn't read in previous reviews but found odd was the way the material gaped in the back of the skirt around the zipper. Some double sided fashion tape kept me from looking like I split my pants. Overall a fun rental I would recommend, just took some playing to make it perfect.

As other reviewers have said I had a hard time letting these go. I would like to own them. Best compliment of the night was "If I was to close my eyes and imagine what party pants look like, those are better than anything I could come up with." I would have liked them to be a tiny bit longer, but I'm pretty tall. On this particular pair the lining was loose which meant I had extra material pooling at my ankles. It was less noticeable in heels, and likely to most other people. They were definitely warm and comfortable for dancing.

I've always loved my RTR items, but this one more than any other seemed to catch people's eye. People were stopping me all night long, I think the color helps. The dress hugged perfectly and created a nice silhouette. I'm a pretty standard 10 in a dress (occasionally an 8 through RTR) and the 10 was perfect. I went one size up for backup and it just didn't create the same shape. The color was beautiful. I didn't have to unzip the neck at all when sitting and I was able to get shape wear underneath without obvious lines. I wore the dress to a professional gala in Las Vegas and didn't have to change when we hit the town for the after party. I would rent this one again!

I can't say enough good things about this romper. I was worried that at 36 I might be too old to pull this look off, but I felt very comfortable in it. The color was beautiful, the materials was forgiving and the cutouts were completely flattering. I was also worried about the dreaded armpit/boob area being cut low, but it was actually quite flattering. I may rent this one again!

I found the dress to look best in person, none of my photos of the evening do it justice. I received compliments all night long. I am typically between an 8 and 10, and I ordered the 10L as my back-up and it fit well. However, even in a long I could not wear much of a heel. The gathering of material in the front stomach area was flattering, but I still wore Spanx. The only criticism I have is that the material around my chest kept rolling. I used fashion tape to keep it down and that made it worse. Ultimately I decided to go without a bra and that worked out. I'm a small D cup and the dress gave enough support for me to be comfortable. I would rent this dress again for a similar occasion.

The earrings I received were great, I had my eye on something else though and either should have provided that feedback or just ordered what I was looking at. The stylist did a good job adding bling to my outfit!

So far this has been a great investment for me this year, having several events I rented for. I'm a RTR enthusiast now!

I got many compliments on the sparkle on these earrings. This was a mystery bling item for me, and a fun item to receive. I had my eye on a different style so I probably should have just rented the piece I was looking at, my error not RTRs. Overall a good piece if you are looking to add bling.

Overall the romper was cute, and comfortable. It definitely runs big, size down when ordering. I wore it with a black bra in a halter style thanks to another reviewer's advice. I was more comfortable having the chest support. When seated the front did drape open some, so I'd recommend fashion tape if you would find that bothersome. The cutouts were well placed and flattering. The length was great, and sometimes I have to worry about one piece outfits with my height. Overall, I highly recommend it and would purchase this one if I could.

I typically wear an 8-10 in a dress and the medium fit well. I tried on the large but that actually drew more attention to my problem area (tummy). The dress was fitted enough to not need spanx. When dancing the under layer did roll up some but was never revealing and wasn't noticeable to others. Overall very classy and flattering dress!

First, this dress was beautiful and looked great on. The color was beautiful and the sequins were not irritating to my sensitive skin. Given the cut of the dress, it was nice to have a little room in the waist for eating and drinking.. I'm a pretty typical size 10 and ordered a size 8 and 10 as recommended. The size 8 fit better, so that is the one that I wore. The dress is cut pretty low in front but I had no problem with a standard bra. I received many compliments while wearing this dress and would not hesitate to rent it again. My only regret is that I didn't get a picture of myself wearing it.
