Fine for a hot holiday
The proportions of this are so childish but I kind of expected as much. Pretty comfortable, has pockets.

Looks expensive
I needed the next size down to make the tailored look look correct but a really fantastic jacket. Looked so elegant, I wore it for an interview. It fit just fine under my oversized long wool coat

I bought this (from Joe's)
Soft, easy to layer, not too thick, looked good tucked in or not. I wore it constantly even just WFH. Had to buy when joes put it on sale (RTR didn't offer a discount)

Stretchy
This was stretchy so comfortable but didn't photograph super well. The top was too big for me but I couldn't have sized down due to my hip width. It ended up not being very flattering.

Looking down at it I thought it looked terrible but even from looking in the mirror it looked better and chic.

They were fine
I sized up out of fear since these should have an oversized look and I'm not totally sure that was the right thing to do. These weren't super flattering around the camel-toe area tbh and with the size up there was too much room in the waist. the legs looked good and they did look expensive which was great.

Such a letdown
These were so disappointing. They were made with the wrong material for this structured, flared look. They are super stretchy in a bad way. Total flop, don't rent theses.

I didn't realize I sized up
I don't know how its possible, I'm a 10 and would have gone for a 12 but never would have ordered a 16 so thats confusing. It was too big (obviously) so I have no idea how it would fit in the correct size. It was really fun to wear, I wore it to a concert and also on a date more casually. It is BRIGHT just a warning!

I don’t know if a smaller size would have been better? Was disappointed in this. Maybe wear it backwards?

Childish and no support
I felt like a toddler in this. The top barely had enough support to go braless. Was it comfortable? Yes. Almost too short.

Meh
I accidentally ordered a size up and that was a huge mistake. It was falling off, even with a push up bra under it. It was comfortable. Pockets. But it looked so dated? Like something out of the back of my closet.

Easy to wear, but no pockets and was too short not to have shorts on under. Would have considered buying if it was cheaper.

This looked great and if we were in an earlier part of the bell curve on this jacket trend I might have bought it. Got lots of compliments, do NOT size down in it though.

Little boob support
this large fit through the ribcage but was too big in the boobs basically and its so low cut... even with a strapless bra I felt very exposed. Like it looked good but felt risky. Also this closure is like a genuine corset up the back which is sort of tricky to get on. No zipper.

too thick, runs small
this is like a 40º weather kind of a sweater, its an acrylic wool blend. Sizing up would make the chest part too big I think so maybe if you just have thin arms this would be better for you.

80's in a bad way
Maybe you need to have narrow shoulders but there is a puff under the sleeve that makes this super 80's and it doesnt hang oversized enough to correct the issue so I had to add a belt and a scarf.

Perfect for Mexico
I read the reviews. I knew it would be oversized and shapeless. I own so many dresses like this and this one was excellent. Linen was high quality and thick. It would be an amazing coverup/transational dress if you were grabbing food after beach. Huge hack! Wear it backwards! The pic I included is horrible but the normal way is very low cut and loose in the chest so I just turned it around for walking around the city. So fab.

Oversized and confusing
Material is very thin so would be great in the summer but this is very boxy, oversized and cropped for sure. The drawstrings actually go all the way around the top which made it tricky to get it laying right. I accidentally ordered a size up and that was a huge mistake cause it was falling off of me. I felt pretty uncomfortable in this tbh. You have to tie it so the scrunch stays but the bows kept slipping which was the only thing giving it shape.

Considered buying this
The biggest downside to this dress is no pockets and I found the chest to be quite roomy but I wore without a bra anyways. Tons of fabric and great flow. It is sparkly. Perfect length with sneakers since it was about 1" off the ground and the hem is asymmetrical so it blends perfectly with whatever height your shoes are.

Second rental
I've rented this before, and the dress version. I'm always tempted to buy it but it's entirely polyester and holds smell in a bad way. Very comfortable to wear and flattering.

Feels like wearing a jersey
I'm between 8 and 10 and got the 10, it was too big. It was a little warm and I was working the first time I wore it and was sweating a little, thus trapping sweat and smell like a middle school-issued team jersey. It photographs well though.

I took the tags off of this coat it was so new, but after like 5 wears one of the buttons popped off. It's super long, anyone under 5'8" will have a tough time with it.

I bought this
It’s perfect. The wide arms and the sleeves fold up. It can be a top on its own or a layer. I wore it so much I couldn’t bear returning it even though it arrived pretty pilly I didn’t care. I wore this on a date and also to yoga like how is that possible. Always felt like a warm & cool girl

Beware the avocados
A millennials nightmare I realized, is having to wear a dress with 2-5 watercolor avocados featured prominently. The particular dress I received literally had one on the chest pocket. I was horrified. I hadn’t noticed the avocados at all (ordering fever dream you know how it goes) but the second I put it on I screamed. Didn’t touch it again. It’s quirky but in a deeply cringe way. RTR should save everyone and retire this to the sample sale.

NO POCKETS
A denim dress with no pockets? I don’t care it’s a trumpet dress give us pockets for gods sake. This looked better with most of the skirt unbuttoned and looked cool as a duster but the pocket thing meant I couldn’t take it on my trip and only ended up wearing it once out of guilt. Got compliments etc.

I bought this
It’s exactly what I want for a summer top- boxy, light and 100% cotton. Very comfortable to wear and elevated without being too mature. I was surprised I liked it buttoned up better than down. Wore it on a 10hr flight and STILL decided to buy it.

SO tight I mean wow. I had to compensate by doing an X thing and looping it with another necklace. It’s cute otherwise but ya, I’ve never thought I had a thick neck till this.

Surprisingly useful
I took this to Italy and it was surprisingly useful although overall I did find it hard to style. Wish I had a better pic with it on. The weave is too loose to wear it as a top IMO. I think it’s cotton so not itchy at all

So so flattering
Got so many compliments on this dress even from my platonic finance bro friends. The material is a little plastic-y and I would hesitate to rent this for a hot and humid event but was so fun for a concert and also a birthday dinner. Good pockets and the elastic arm band wasn’t too tight at all!

So much fabric in the top
Jokes on me for reading the reviews about all the fabric in the top and thinking it wouldn’t matter cause I’m tall… I was drowning. Got tons of compliments though and it was comfortable to wear. I think it would also work backwards.

I fucking love this dress
I think RTR only has like a single stock of each size in this cause like someone else said, it’s never available. I got lucky and my size up was available and it was fine, worth it for how beautiful it is. Like truly stunning. I’ve never wanted to buy a gown more and honestly might have as an investment if it was my correct size (M). The back is slightly longer than the front and it’s 100% silk. Had some issues with static at first but weirdly good full body moisturizer lotion actually solved it. It has a half bra liner so I didn’t wear a bra at all. Seriously rent this if you can!

Mixed feelings
I loved this coat at first then turned on it. It’s Ganni so I expected more in terms of fabric quality but it’s a fashion brand not a performance brand and you don’t appreciate performance fabric till it’s gone I guess? Cause this is just quilted with some poly blend thing and traps heat aggressively. Doesn’t breathe at all even though it’s thin and boxy I was SWEATING any time I had it on indoors so was a pain for travel, horrible for running around the airport. The lining also has bagged out? Idk overall disappointing.

Very comfortable
This was great on vacation and can be dressed up or down. Is also machine washable! (Delicate cycle hang dry) the only complaint I have is it’s a little too long and maybe was too big for me and kept pushing up on my torso when I sat but otherwise a great top.
