Tight in bust
This is a really pretty shirt with cool details but it does run tight in the bust. I was still able to wear it but would size up if you have Ds or higher!

The best princess dress!
This dress made me feel like a princess. I don't think I've ever received so many compliments in one night before. People kept coming up to me just to tell me how great the dress looked. It is a bit long - I'm 5'3.5 and wore 3 inch heels and still tripped on it a bit. The length looked fine; I just had to walk slowly to avoid tripping. But princesses walk slowly right? If you need a ball gown, you should definitely give this one a shot.

Beautiful princess dress
Received a ton of compliments and felt beautiful in this dress. The dress fit tts for this brand, which consistently runs small. I typically wear a 0 but order 2s for this brand and this 2 fit perfectly.

Meh
What others have said is accurate. I consistently wear xs with this brand but sized up based on other reviews. It was still really tight. The material is thin and weird. Ok but not great.

It's a very pretty skirt but it runs HUGE. I couldn't wear it.

Cute but big!
Rented these for work. I am between xs/s on most bottoms so I chose small here. They were huge! Will try again with the xs.

Beautiful but broken
This dress is so pretty and fit perfectly. Unfortunately I couldn't wear it because the second button from the top was broken in half.

Frumpy
This designer tends to run a bit conservative but I generally like that for work. This dress was somehow extra matronly though. Fit was ok except the arms were a bit baggy.

Not flattering on me
I really liked this dress but it didn't like me. My hips made the black part stick out from under the gray and it looked weird.

Really cute LBD
TTS for Nicole Miller (which for me is a 2 because her 0s don't leave a lot of room for booty). Great dress for a night of dancing.

Beautiful but tight in chest and arms
I normally size up to a 2 with this designer. This is the first dress that hasn't fit me perfectly. I was thinking of placing it on my "do not rent again" list but then I squeezed into it for work and had non stop compliments all day. 🤷♀️ Who needs full range of arms anyway?

Pretty color; weird fit
The material is soft and stretchy. It's not too thin but it is the kind of material that shows everything. I'm pretty fit but was still a bit uncomfortable with how much it showed the outline of my thighs. It's also a bit short for work given how tight it is. But it is pretty and I did receive several complements.

Cute, well-made dress. It runs a bit small in the butt and has no back vent which made bathroom breaks challenging.

So pretty but so heavy!
These earring are gorgeous, but they are heavy. I had to wear them in my second hole up because they really pulled on my earlobes otherwise.

Good in photos; weird fit
This dress photographed really well but was a little uncomfortable. It was stiff so I was self-conscious about falling out of it. I used double sided tape on the sides which helped. I like that you can take out the modesty piece in the front for more cleavage (I was at a wedding so I left it in). Even though I didn't *love* it, i did get a ton of compliments about it!

Classy pirate
I wore this dress to a pirate-themed work party. Since it was work, I didn't want to wear a full on pirate costume (although others did!). Adding a little pirate hat and skull and crossbones necklace made this pirate-y without being over the top. I felt very elegant and received compliments all night. It does run a little long - at 5'3 I probably would have been better off in the petite size but it wasn't available.

Great fit
I wore this to a business event at my husband's firm. The fit is perfect - the fit is sexy but still conservative due to the ruching. I thought the back was the best part but my husband disagreed and said it was the front.

Princess dress
I rented this dress for a holiday party - I wanted to do something different so I figured a winter white princess dress would be perfect. The bust and the hips on this dress run really small. The underskirt is also laughably short - it didn't even cover my booty! So I purchased a nude slip and wore it over the underskirt. It did the job and I don't think anyone could tell. I was happy with my overall look but did not love the dress due to fit issues.

Perfect fit!
I thought I had ordered this in a 0 and a 2 for NYE but when I went to check my order status on the 29th, I realized I had them in my cart but had not checked out! When I went to finalize the order, the 0 was still available but the 2 was not. Luckily, the 0 fit like a glove. Both the fit and the length were perfect - it felt like the jumpsuit was made just for me. As usual with RTR, the process was easy and I got tons of compliments.

I felt so fancy
I rented this for my birthday date - dinner and theater with my husband. It was a bit dress for the occasion, but I didn't care because I felt beautiful. One of the shoulder seams was a bit worn so I was a little concerned about it falling off during the night, but other than that it was great.

I felt "wedding pretty"
One of the best parts of my recent wedding was having people tell mme I looked beautiful all day - this dress gave me that experience all over again! Strangers stopped me to tell me how lovely they thought the dress was. A cop even told me he was going to write me a ticked for being too pretty! And another stranger told me she had to do a double take because when I walked by, she thought I must be famous. I thought the dress ran large and long. I wore 3 inch heels and had to pick up the dress to walk in it. And the sequins were kind of sharp - they cut the area undear my fingernails with all that picking up! Still, the dress was insanely beautiful and comfortable to wear. I was even able to wear a regular bra so that was nice. My husband loved it!

So many compliments!
Before I even walked into the wedding, a stranger driving by stopped to tell me how great I looked. And the rest of the night was the same - nonstop compliments! I will note that the fit is a little big - I had about an inch to spare around the waist in the 0. Also the 0 may be close to retirement, as the lace around the neckline kept rolling inward. Still, I rate this a 5 because I felt fantastic in it. But be close when using the restroom - apparently when I did, the blue lace rolled up and I walked out with only the nude showing!

Totally worth it
I don't know what else to say. I purchased this along with my first ever rental, gambling on the fact that I would be happy and want to rent again. It was a winning bet! This service is so awesome. I am definitely a person who buys dresses and wears them once, then leaves them to collect dust in the closet. With RTR, I may never buy a new dress again! AND for just about the same price as buying a new dress, I get to rent much fancier stuff I could never afford! If you have even an inkling that you will rent more than 1 dress in a year, go pro.

Gatsby Perfection
I wore this dress to a Gatsby-themed Christmas party and it was a hit. I received so many compliments - strangers even asked me to take photos with them! I typically wear a size 0 but ended up wearing my size 2 backup. The 0 was a bit tight across my bum (which means Pilates has been working to make it more bubbly!) and I liked that the 2 had a more dramatic V in front (though I did use a safety pin to close it up a bit). It seemed like the 0 had stitching halfway up the chest to close the V and the 2 might have had the same stitching at one time but it was torn by wear. No worries! The safety pin did the job. This was my first rental and the whole process was so easy and fun that I can't wait to do it again!
