Beautiful dress, but a strange fit
I wanted to love this dress! The colors are great, and the material was nicer in person than I expected--more of a stiff material, making it forgiving of problem areas. For me, the problem was the chest. It's very low and too big (I'm 38B), so I couldn't get it to stay in place. Not work appropriate as a result.

Cute -- a bit small
Great quality material and nice print. I'm usually 10/12 and went with the 10. It gaps a bit in the chest when I move; wish I'd gone with the 12.

Simple but cute - size down
I sized down two sizes and it was tight be wearable. Sizing down one should be fine. Simple, nothing special. Doesn't feel like an expensive dress or nicer than anything I could get at Target. Still, I did like it.

Looks like photo but wrinkles really easily
Nice material. Flattering cut. However, it wrinkles super easily. A few hours into the day it already looked really sloppy.

Cute! Cut on arms makes it unique.
Longer than I expected from the model photo. Hits a bit above the knees so was modest enough to wear to work. Medium weight denim that feels high quality. Front pockets are really functional.

Eh... nothing special
I picked this up at the store because there was nothing else that caught my eye. It was a decent looking skirt on the rack, but after about 15 minutes of wearing it, it was so wrinkled that it looked really bad and sloppy. Additionally, the wrinkles made gaps between the buttons--I felt like I was flashing people all day. Recommend wearing with a slip. Fits true to size. The waist has no give, though, so factor that in. I'm normally a 10-12 and the 12 was the right fit.

Simple but fun dress
The elastic in the back makes it super comfy and flattering for all sizes. It transitioned well from day to dinner out, and I plan to rent again for work too! A solid piece.

Great large tote!
Some other reviews mentioned it being too large. I disagree. It's definitely large, but I didn't find it too big for everyday use. Then again, I tend to prefer big bags to haul the various things I cart around for my kids. The colors are super fun and make it go with everything. I got multiple compliments from strangers.

Super comfy
I hesitated about renting this sweater because it didn't look like anything special, but glad I ended up taking it with me to the mountains. It was so comfy and perfect I wore it pretty much everyday, with everything from dresses to yoga pants. I'm usually a L but M was still very big.

Love! Great colors and quality
So comfy and much more fashionable than a normal sweatshirt. My only regret it that I didn't discover it until late winter

Straps are way too long
I just don't understand the design on this. No way to wear without a shirt underneath, and even with a shirt it looks kind of silly. Disappointing. I didn't wear it.

Super flattering!
Love this rental. Hangs nicely and makes me appear slimmer. Not see through. I plan to wear both at work and over the weekend m.

One of my favorite RTR rentals!
Such a fun skirt! Colors are even better in person than pictured. So many compliments. I got a bigger size than would be ideal bc it was all that was available, and it was definitely too long. I pulled it off with heels, but I definitely suggest sizing down to be safe. The waist is totally elastic so plenty of flexibility in sizing there.

Not a dress
Way too short to be a dress. I wore it with pants. Shoulders were a bit snug but it worked.

I'm usually a 10 or 12 but this 12 was so tight I couldn't sit down. Returning unworn.

Beautiful cut and fabric
I could have gone with the L, but XL worked too. Color is a little out there (totally as pictured) for me, but I loved the cut and feel of this dress and got compliments all day.

Pink and purple, runs huge
I didn't realize from photos that the print is pink and purple. It seemed more like a pink and tan to me, so it's a little more loud than anticipated. Collar is super comfy! Actual coat isn't super thick though, so better for somewhat milk climates or with layers. Runs huge! Size down.

Great color! More marigold than pictured. Also more of an oversized style than pictured. Size down. Fabric wrinkles easily.

PERFECTION!
Such a comfortable, fun, colorful piece! It's super flattering. I received a million compliments and loved wearing it. I got 2 sizes smaller than what I normally wear, and it fit fine FYI. The drawstring waist makes sizing pretty flexible.

Weird fit up top
Love love love the looks of this stress, but it felt awkward to wear because the straps were so long. There'd be no way to wear it without a shirt underneath unless you have a super long torso.

Stretchy & comfy; good for both work and weekend
Due to the stretch I was still able to wear the 10, bit they were really too tight so I will try again with the 12. These are really awesome pants! Look totally professional and nice, but the fabric is soft and stretchy so they feel as comfy as leggings or sweats. Rating 4 and not 5 stars only because there's nothing special or wow about them. They are just solid good quality pants that work for both work and weekend.
