showstopper
this dress was a backup to a backup to a backup (no joke) because apparently some people destroy dresses so thoroughly that the rest of us have to suffer for it. anyway, this dress was the closest to the original dress I rented that I could find. I got tons of compliments on it and I really liked it. I could have worn the 6 or the 8 but I went with the 6 because the length was a bit better for me. I'm really small and this dress didn't come in petite like my original choice did. I have a chest and wore a bra but could have gotten away with not wearing one (and I NEVER say that). the fabric had enough stretch to feel comfortable without feeling informal and I had no problems getting into it. I was afraid the sleeve would be too tight, but it was fine. the turtleneck wasn't as hot as I was afraid it would be. the high slit and asymmetrical sleeve were elegant but sexy and as I said, I got a lot of compliments. my husband liked it a lot too and I felt like a bond girl :) all in all, even though it wasn't my original choice and didn't come in petite, it was a great dress for a blacktie wedding and I would definitely rent it again.

perfect for work party
wore this dress for a work dinner and got tons of compliments. it fit really well, although the fabric didn't have a lot of give. I tried on large for size but sleeves were waaaay too long, so I wore the medium, and the sleeves were *slightly* too long. sleeves being a bit long is common for me. the material is heavy, so the dress is good for colder months. I loved the colors. it was a good dress for work where you want to look professional and also nice. I would wear this dress again.

pretty accessory for stunning dress
thought this necklace would compliment the dress I rented and it did! got a ton of compliments. it was a little heavy but not unbearable.

showstopping dress
wore this for Christmas Eve. great dress, fit perfectly, even the sleeves (sleeves are usually too long on me), and it got a lot of compliments. it obvious does have a plunging neckline, so make sure you have the right bra. mine didn't fit exactly right and I had to adjust it periodically. but with the right bra, this dress is stunning. 4 stars instead of 5 because the dress I had was slightly stretched out on one side.

holiday party show stopper
wore this to the company holiday party, got tons of compliments, including from the CEO. wore an 8. fit really well, although it was a bit long in the sleeves for me, by about half an inch. overall, great dress.

pretty bag
this was an adorable bag chosen for me by rtr style experts to match the dress I rented for a wedding. I really liked it but it was a tad small. couldn't fit all the essentials + phone. it worked out because I had my phone out anyway, taking pictures at the wedding.

fabulous color, flattering fit
I got this dress in size 6 and 8, which are the two sizes I usually get. I wore the 8 because the 6 was too small up top. even the 8 was a little tight for my chest but it wasn't a deal breaker or anything like that, and I preferred a little tighter than looser. I am always afraid the dress will slip, but this one didn't. the red was a beautiful, rich jewel tone color, and it was a flattering fit. I got a ton of compliments :) the zipper stuck a little but nothing too difficult to deal with. I steamed the dress before wearing it and it unwrinkled easily. I'd rent it again if I was in a pinch. #wedding #glam

wedding shower winner
I wore this dress to my wedding shower. It was a little tight in the bust - I'm a 36 C - but other than that, I fit in the small very well and was really pretty and photographed well. the only downside to this dress is that it's VERY easily wrinkled. it got wrinkled in the travel bag. I steamed it for my event, and it wrinkled on the ride to the venue. very pretty but if wrinkles bother you, don't rent this dress.
