Good for some, not for me
The dress was TTS. I usually wear a size 8, 34D, 5'10". The problem was the top of the dress. There is no give or stretch on that crochet so it was tight and cut me at my armpit/chest. I could have worn it, but new i would be fiddling with it and uncomfortable all day. It was strange bevause the bottom fit and was even a lottle loose, but the top was just uncomfortable. The fabric was nice and substantial, and the top has a pretty gold sheen, it just wasnt perfect.

The perfect mix of classy and sexy!
So I loved this dress. I am typically a size 8, but sometimes size up to a size 10 because I don't like things tight around my middle. I tried on the size 10, but the size 8 fit like a GLOVE. The thick crepe fabric covers problem areas, the elastic band is weirdly comfortable, I'm a 34D and didn't need a bra because it's perfectly snug up top, and the adjustable straps ensure that it fits you at the right spot on your waist. The only problem is you absolutely need a buddy to button the top button in the back. Otherwise, the dress is perfect. I would buy it in a heartbeat.

Great NYE Dress
I was looking for a sexy dress that wouldn't make me feel self-conscious (my mid section is my trouble area). Well, it's still a tight fitting dress, but it worked out with some trusty spanx. lol. I'm a size 8 dress and could squeeze into the M, but I went for the L and wore a sticky bra (though I prob could have gone without, despite my 34Ds). I love this dress and would definitely recommend/ rent again.

Summer dress staple
This had been in my hearts for a while, and RTR sent it to me when the dress I originally ordered was damaged by a previous renter. It's a cute, well-made dress (Joie is always great). Unfortunately, I am short-wasted, so the dress hit me at a spot that made the top look too baggy. I probably could have sized down to avoid this, though I think the dress really does run true to size (I'm a size 8, medium and ordered a medium in this dress). If you are looking for an upscale basic summer dress, go for it.

Cute and unique dress, runs small!
This dress has zero hanger appeal, but is so cute on. I originally ordered the LR for my high school reunion, but the day before it was supposed to arrive, I received an email from RTR that it was ruined from the previous renter . I was devastated. They kindly shipped my alternate size (MR) , as well as another style free of charge. I am a size 8 and a true medium, but the MR was way too small. I could zip it up, but it was far too tight with the cutouts, etc. I recommend sizing up for sure!

Super cute and neutral
These were just as I expected- neutral with subtle sparkle. Very cute and versatile, I wore them to a wedding and then to brunch the next day.

Lovely dress! (A bit tight in the chest.)
I am a true size 8 (34D) and honestly could have worn the size 8 or 10, there wasn't a huge difference between the two. I went with the size 8, though it was quite short on my 5'10" frame! The 10 would have worked too and been longer/ a tad more comfy (especially in the chest) but I liked the look of the 8. It was a great & flattering dress!

PERFECT for my fox-themed event!
I got a million compliments on this fun & unique clutch. (Especially for a Fox-themed event!) it held my cell, a real camera and a lipstick. A nice sized bag for a night out! I do wish it had a strap, but it's still awesome.

Cute dress, but for a specific body type.
I simply was not comfortable in this dress. I am a fit size 8, but based on reviews ordered a 10 & 12. The 10 was the right size but it was just too tight. I didn't wear it for the event I was planning to wear it to, but I threw it on for a play I went to the next night (I just never took my jacket off!) spanx are a must- but not too high or else they will be seen in the cutout, and not too long down the legs or the slit will show them. Really cute if you have a thin midsection!

Great accessory for the weekend!
I was hoping for a chunky gold necklace for my dress and that's exactly what I got with my mystery bling! It was great with my dress rental and I even dressed it down the next day while I explored NYC! Cute and versatile. My only complaint is that it did seem a bit worn- could use some care, or be shined up a bit.

Great accessory for my RTR dress
I was hoping for a chunky gold necklace, which is exactly what I got! I wore it for a fundraising dinner Friday night, then dressed it down with a daytime outfit the next day in NYC! My only complaint is that it did look a little worn. It could use a little shine.
Lovely color and fit!
BCBG dresses run a size small IMO. This dress was no exception. I am a true size 8, and while I could fit in to a size 8, a size 10 was far more comfortable & flattering (especially with that cutout when you sit down!) awesome dress, I highly recommend it!
