Bachelorette Party Vibes
Loved this dress! My only issue is that the photo indicates the pattern on top and bottom will match but I found that the vertical lines were different based on how the garment was stitched together. It is the typical itchy under the arms that any sequin dress will give you, but I felt so cute wearing it for a night out.

Not see-through!!
I really liked wearing these to work and for every day. They flare more at the bottom than what is shown, and the material is on the thicker side. This enables the wearing not to worry too much about being see-through but wearing these in 100+ degree weather in Vegas was a little stifling.

So many compliments
I do not typically gravitate towards bright colors, but am so glad I chose this for summertime. The garment is well made with thicker stitching around the seams. Also it has pockets! My only gripe is that you will need to iron it or steam it every wear because the skirt hem can curl upwards over time. I also safety pin the top to keep it closed but I think that is because I have a smaller bust and it would hug someone better if they had a larger chest. I ended up buying this item, I feel so playful and confident when I wear it.

Don't rent if you don't have the right undergarments
I liked this, I felt cute and the fabric was soft and pretty. I would only recommend wearing this if you don't rely on shapewear since the length and fabric type don't really enable you to wear many layers underneath. It was a great option for a bachelorette party, and kind of reminded me of the dress from the Disney Channel movie "My Date With the President's Daughter" (iykyk) but in a lavender purple. I would consider renting it again knowing what to expect now.

Cute and fairly comfortable
The straps need to be tied instead of having the sliding plastic adjuster piece, so you need a buddy to help and the straps tend to slip anyway. I am 5'6" with longer legs and always had to wear heels with this dress so it wouldn't drag. Also the bust is on the smaller side which worked great for me but definitely wouldn't work for someone larger chested. Overall this was pretty, comfortable, and appropriate in dressy and casual settings. I wore it for Easter with a cardigan and to a wedding rehearsal. I also felt it was a flattering color and cut, so I would consider renting it again.

Might have to buy it
I felt so good in this dress, and you can wear it open as a jacket too. It is on the shorter side, so I wore some black shorts under it. I also couldnt wear a standard bra so warning to ladies with bigger chests. I will probably keep this for next month too and find an excuse to wear it again.

Cute but scratchy/see through
You will need to wear a tanktop under it because the material is a bit transparent, but you will require a layer regardless because the shirt feels very scratchy. If you have sensitive skin, skip this, but I was fine and didnt think about the sensation while wearing it (only while changing). I felt very cute, I wore with brown flared corduroys and thought I looked super 70s.

Love, love, love!
I felt so pretty in this dress, as someone who normally doesn't love drawing attention to my belly I felt that this dress was really flattering. I wore a shawl over it because it was definitely a thin material, but I would almost certainly rent this piece again.

Really cute!
I felt super pretty, and was grateful for the sleeves during a rainy day at a baby shower. I was able to wear shapewear with this dress, which isnt always the case if the slit is too high. I felt very pretty and put together.

You need to safety pin the top
The cowl next was weird and too floppy, I needed three different safety pins to lay it closer to my body. If I hadn't it would have been way too much of a gap.

This fit perfectly, and the ruching was very flattering around my stomach. Comfortable fabric for sitting and walking, and overall an easy garment to dress up or down

Fantastic dress
I loved wearing this, I felt so beautiful and the pattern had unique details like ladybugs and bees instead of just being floral. I'm not particularly busty so this dress didn't feel too low cut for me, but I wouldn't recommend this dress for someone with a larger chest. I would absolutely rent this dress again.

Cute but awkward
This was nice and fit correctly, but I wish I had fashion tape to prevent the sleeves from falling down off my shoulders. I would also recommend just tying the strings into a bow instead of halter style.

Couldn't wear it
If you're normally a 10, go up. This was very small around the ribs. Everything else about the dress fit/hung nicely, I just couldn't close it.

Adds creative flare
This coat was easily worn casually and dressed up for a restaurant. I wore it more than anything else I've rented from RTR. I wish it had pockets at the hips, but it does have breast pockets. It wasn't the warmest jacket but I found it perfect for spring.

Wear shorts underneath
The fit was great, I didn't feel the need to adjust the skirt all day and it has pockets. The snaps in the front are the only closures, so when I bent down to put on my shoes a bunch of the snaps opened. Wear shorts underneath in case of that, but none of the snaps budged when I sat down at the office.

This shirt is easy to dress up or down depending on the outfit. It can gather lint easily, but it's a great black velvet fabric.

Perfect!
Very comfortable and I got so many compliments. There is a vertical split at the ankles that you can't see in pictures, so tall boots are recommended.

Loved the style, but too small
Despite being a size 30 in a different pair of Levi's these were easily 2" too right. I'll get them in a bigger size next month.

Not my taste
In person it's more beige than yellow, and the pink flowers aren't subtle. The seams around the cups in the bust also looked strange. I went larger in size based on reviews but it was way too big for me.

If you're usually a medium, go larger
Super duper cute but it runs quite small. I could get the zipper up after some gymnastics but it was too tight to have a range of motion. RTR was great about helping me exchange for a large without having to wait for next month.

The top fit perfectly
Just flexible enough material that the top was perfect. For my body proportions I have slightly longer legs and a shorter torso, so the crotch on the jumpsuit was a little tight but not noticable or unbearable.
