Huge huge huge
I am a 6/8 but usually order 8s for ease of zipping. Sized down to a 42 and honestly would have done better in a 38. Think of going down 2-3 sizes as it is an open fit and the shoulders and sleeves are oversized. Would be a cute, loose dress if you got the sizing right. Also material wrinkles easily. Still wish I could have worn it. Modest but the pop of color is so fun and unique!

Perfectly versatile!
Easy day to night earring. Lighter than expected (and I HATE bulky earrings - no issue with these!). Lots of compliments. Should have bought them. Probably will!

Favorite work dress! Love this brand!!
No zipper hassles, stretchy and thick fabric. Cut and design that is professional and still dramatic. Wore this to an event and was a standout in an all male group. Definitely planning to add this brand to my personal wardrobe as often as possible!! I ordered a size up because I was unsure about how it would fit. Definitely don't be afraid of this one - it's very comfortable and accommodating!

So cute and fun!!
I picked this up in store and it was a size too big but I wore it anyway and it wasn't such a big deal. Would have gotten a medium were it available. So ridiculously cute and fun to wear! Wore to work and nonstop compliments all day. Really a ray of sunshine.

Beautiful details, bulky fit.
Embroidery and texture of the dress are beautiful!!! Definitely requires an undershirt for being so low cut. Fabric has no give, so if you are busty stay true bc it's annoying to pull on - otherwise size down. There's a nice underlayer and pockets, plus a cami just made it feel so much bulkier than I'd hoped. Very lovely and well made however.

Sleeve ties are annoying
Was cute on the hanger, but the more i wore it the more i disliked it. Ties would bunch in my coat / were annoying in general. Sized up for an oversized fit and it was just ballooning. Not my favorite.

Just OK
Sized up and it was a bit big. Wasnt the most flattering dress for curves. Modest, nice silky fabric.

Runs really big!!
Great dress, really nice fabric, pleating, covered buttons -- but it is huge!! I generally wear a 6 or 8; have been sizing up lately for holiday parties. I would say to go two sizes down from your lower end or it is a shapeless tent. I cuffed the sleeves (which were way too long and I have long arms) and belted it (which was nice for the cinch but had a weird ballooning effect because the fabric is so nice and thick so it needed to be constantly adjusted with any movement). I really love the dress though and have high hopes for it in a smaller size!

Runs Small, esp in arms.
Picked it up in unlimited and didn't end up wearing because it ran so small. Sleeves were tight with no stretch. Really cute and versatile cut and print, but I'd be worried about sizing too far up with an hourglass figure and losing shape. Nice fabric and well made.

Compliments all night!
Wore it to a dinner over an all black, casual outfit and it was so glam. The bottom is stretchy and form fitting so if you are worried about losing your shape - don't be. Ample room for zipping (which can be tough when you are busty). I could have gone down a size and still been comfortable - picked it up in the store and was so happy with it. For F/W wear, it's a little tough to wear under most coats bc the sleeves have a lot of extra fabric. Worth making it work on a night out!

Stylish and modest LBD!
The tie sleeves are super fun! Mock turtleneck is always chic, but it runs a little on the short side (I'm 5'1" and it was OK for me, but watch out tall ladies). Stretchy and comfy, wore it for a speaking engagement and then out later and it felt right everywhere/wasn't desperate to get out of it at the end of the night. Recommend!

Looooove the little flower details! Great silky lining, multiple pockets, room for my laptop. Best bag I've borrowed from RTR!

Runs really small.
I sized up and still wasn't able to wear it. Would need to try it on in the store. I'm generally a 6, but busty. The 8 wouldn't zip and the lace has no give. Shame because it is gorgeous quality and perfect fall shades. Would recommend for non-hourglass figures under a D-cup.

Great versatile dress!
Quality material, nice form fitting stretch. The cut and slight flair make it the perfect mix of feminine and modest.

Nice bag. Odd shape.
I didn't pay good enough attention to measurements and was surprised at how narrow the bag was. Really nice woven strap (might be small if you are in a jacket), good quality leather and versatile shade of green. Didn't end up working out for me because I was looking more for something I could sneak a laptop into when needed.

Loved it!!! SIZE UP!
Fabric has no stretch, but is a little forgiving. Love love the deep green color in the print and the cut is super trendy. Wore it for a presentation and got a ton of compliments. Really loved it and would recommend to anyone. I'm pretty curvy/busty, so I sized up when I saw the fabric composition and that was spot on. Very feminine dress and great for hourglass figures as well! (Which is hard to find as both modest and trendy.)

Perfect basic with a cute silhouette
I have a closet full of sheaths with 3/4 sleeves and this stood out only because of the skater shirt. Very cute though. Nice stretch, fit like a glove. Heavy, nice fabric felt expensive. Wouldn't likely rent again, this was sent as an alternate, but would definitely recommend to someone looking for a quality, updated basic.

Great necklace
Nice and heavy. Best worn close to the neck. Enjoyed the rental and would rent again.

Beautiful colors and unique material.
The material for the coat feels very unique and refined. I'm always worried when something is fuzzy that it will shed or stick to makeup, but it doesn't at all. Sleeves a little tight if your upper arms are bigger, but doesn't look too strange. Lighter and thinner than a normal pea coat - great for fall or places it doesn't get too cold in the winter. Really enjoyed it and wore it a few times in the week I had it. Would recommend, it dresses up any outfit.

Great Day to Evening Event LBD!
Loved it! Wore it to work and then to an evening event. Got compliments everywhere and even told it was a little gothy (haha I don't mind this at all). Fit was great. Excellent shape. Sleeves a little tight, but not impossible to deal with. The lace was so feminine, definitely made a standard LBD something special.
Black Pleated Tea Dress

Nice size for work.
Fit my laptop and everything else I needed. A little floppy and less structured than I'd like. Pressure hits your shoulder pretty intensely if you have anything heavy in it. Would recommend if you don't care about structure or weight distribution.
Navy Bibi Tote

Perfect color for fall!
Wasn't sure about the material at first, but I loved it and the small bit of stretch it has. Sleeves are a nice cut and the buttons are darling. Really well made dress. Will rent again. Only disadvantage is that it's prone to wrinkling if you will be sitting much.

Beautifully constructed, really big in shoulders.
Didn't end up wearing it. Absolutely crushed and hoping to try again with a smaller size. One of the garments worth the pricetag. Shoulders are very broad, so be advised!
