Pretty color, super comfortable
Loved this dress! Unfortunately the shoulders weren't as puffy as I'd hoped, but it was still gorgeous and super comfortable. Definitely runs a little large, as it is a wrap style there is no zips, just elastic closure that gives it a lot of give. Very cute for a black tie event and I definitely stood out from the crowd!

Gorgeous sparkly dress!
I loved this rental- the colors are gorgeous, the dress is fully lined so there's no itching, and the dress is super comfortable. Fit is a little boxy but it is supposed to be that way. I am usually an XS and sized up to a small - I am glad I did because the XS was a little too short and not quite big enough around. The small fit perfectly. The dress is definitely cut for someone with a straight and narrow figure and shorter than 5'7. Great value rental and I was getting compliments all night!

This top is a showstopper!
I absolutely adored this top! The small fit me like a glove but I do think it runs small especially through the chest- I wouldn't recommend it for anyone who is busty. The fabric is beautiful; it looks solid in the photo but up close each color is a seersucker print (true to the title of the top) and the fabric is rich feeling. It is a very short crop top so I think it definitely looks best with high waisted light wash cropped jeans! I want to own this top and wear it over and over!! So gorgeous. Perfect for a warm summer day and guaranteed to make you stand out from the crowd.

Love the neckline
I loved the neckline and print of this top and the fabric felt very luxe but overall I found it to run very large; I could have worn the 0. It kept falling down on both my arms and around my chest so I was constantly hiking it up. Because of that I thought it was just ok; I wore it to a birthday brunch at my sister's house during the day; didn't think it was special enough to wear out at night with the too large fit.

Definitely a showstopper that's perfect for a black tie event!
I wore this gorgeous gown to a black tie charity gala and it was the perfect choice. Everyone said I looked like the red dress emoji girl. I got endless compliments all night long and it was comfortable and the fabric flows beautifully when you walk or dance. Overall it fit pretty true to size, maybe slightly large through the waist but definitely very fitted in the bust and hips. I have a straight and narrow figure so it worked perfectly for me but for someone curvy or with a larger bust I would size up. In any case you won't be disappointed with this beautiful dress!

Cute dress for a fall wedding
I didn't plan on wearing this dress but what I had originally ordered arrived and didn't fit, so I exchanged it for this dress at the RTR Chicago location. It is pretty in person, the fabric is a rich looking burgundy brocade. It is knee length and has a full pleated skirt with pockets. It was comfortable and easy to dance and eat in. I do feel it runs slightly small in the waist area as I have found most fitted Erin Fetherston dresses. It's a pretty dress, not my favorite but good for the occasion and I received lots of compliments.

Perfect for a night out in Vegas
I wore this out the second night of my bachelorette weekend in Las Vegas. It was super cute, short, and very flattering for someone with a straight and narrow figure. I loved that it was a dark green color, which is pretty unique, and I paired it with the Kate spade card clutch, black stilettos w a gold ankle cuff, and gold earrings. Perfect Vegas look for a great night!

Cute romper for a summer bachelorette party
This romper is really fun and comfortable. I do think it runs large as the x-small was still kind of baggy but it looked cute. It's not a showstopper, but it was perfect for a hot summer night out in the city as a guest at another girl's bachelorette party.

Wore this to see. Britney at my bachelorette in Vegas and it was a showstopper!
Love love love this dress! Wish I'd taken a photo of the back because it's the best part. It runs slightly small - I'm usually always an x-small in Parker and this dress was a small and it was very short and tight, but fit great! Had a blast in it and would rent it again!

Didn't wear this dress because it was huge on me
I rented this dress as a possible option for my bachelorette party. I didn't wear it because the 2 was so large on me that it hung like an oversized potato sack. I don't know if it was mismarked or if someone else who was a lot larger wore it and stretched it out. In any case, I also expected this dress to be a mini and it was almost knee length on me. Overall very disappointing.

This was a great dress for my rehearsal dinner
I rented this dress for my rehearsal dinner. I loved the fit and the silhouette which was very pretty and elegant. I was slightly disappointed in the color - i thought it was a white and gold but in person it is more ivory. However I received so many compliments on it and I was very happy with the dress overall!

I didn't wear this dress because it didn't fit
I couldn't wear this dress because the part in the center by the belt was too tight around my waist. I'm usually always a 2, sometimes even a 0 in Erin Fetherston, and the 2 was a little too small but only at the belted part. The bottom was still baggy and too large despite the waist being too small. Also, this dress in person is definitely more green as opposed to how it looks aqua blue online. Overall I was really disappointed by this dress.

Perfect dress for an outdoor summer wedding
This dress fit like a glove! It was lightweight and comfortable and it had pockets which was also great. There was a little fullness to the skirt which was fun for dancing. I received so many compliments on this dress; the pattern was beautiful and it is gorgeous in person.

Super cute and fun dress that was perfect for a Saturday night dinner at a nice restaurant
I felt the dress ran small in the top part- it was tight around my chest, shoulders and under my arms, but not uncomfortably so. I am pretty narrow on top so I thought it was weird that the 4 was tight. It was a really cute, fun dress and the colors and pattern look even better in person.

Rented this dress for an engagement celebration dinner
I liked this dress but did not love. I got so many compliments from everyone but rent the runway sent me the wrong belt, so it did not match (although you couldn't really tell from the photos) and I felt like it got very wrinkled pretty easily. That being said, I think it was a great dress for dinner and drinks but I'm glad I didn't get it for a very special occasion.

Ore these for a pop of color with a little black dress!
Absolutely loved these Kate spade earrings in hot pink. My outfit was a little black dress and a pair of black heels with a gold ankle strap, so the hot pink was a cute accent of color. The other girls complimented me all night long and wanted to know where they could get them!

Wore this out to a friends birthday in San Diego and was the belle of the ball!
The dress definitely runs small, had the small been any tighter I would've needed a medium, so I suggest sizing up for your backup size. The colors were bright and different then most party dresses out there. I paired it with nude open toe booties and Oscar de la Renta gold and crystal earrings and I felt fashionable and fun!

Wore it on a night out in San Diego and got compliments all night long!
I loved this dress! It ran a little large but I am usually a 2 so the size xsmall was perfect. I paired it with a nude open toe bootie, red lipstick and a bun to show off the neckline. It was comfortable and so cute! I would definitely rent again.

Wore this dress for a wedding and it was a showstopper!
This dress was amazing. I wore the 2 and it fit perfectly. It was also very comfortable because the fabric was lined and was not itchy at all. It was on the short side, but I have a straight figure so it was not a problem for my body type. Curvy girls may want to go a size up for extra length. I paired it with champagne colored stilettos and a low side bun and it was a perfect elegant wedding look!

I paired the dress with Bagdley Mischka earrings and a curly side pony for a fun formal look
I felt the dress ran a little big, I found the 2 to NBC a little roomy but the zero was a bit too tight so I wore the two. It still was a cute fit although I could not wear a bra.
