Casual, Different, Fun
My dad hated it (thought it was too 70s), people my age loved it and thought it was cool. loved the fit, colors, short waist, and mock turtleneck. Perfect for a casual day out.

Fit well, not the most flattering
Felt a little squat in these with my short frame. Definitely recommend wear a tiny 2 inch causal heel instead of sneakers. Liked but didn't love. Cool idea though.

Perfect for "in-between weather"
This coat was fun and unique. I didn't get compliments on it but I thought it was cool. I brought it as my coat for a trip to Ireland in May and wore it every day. But one day we went to a falconry place, and it was a bit hit because people thought it was a coat made for the event :). Others may have thought it was too out there, but I loved it. It was comfy and the perfect amount of warmth needed on 50 degree overcast days.

Flowy and comfortable
Ran true to size, but was a bit long (I'm only 5'4"). I wore 3 in heels and it still grazed the ground. Very comfortable and flowy. I rented this for the month and wore it twice - to Easter brunch and Mother's Day brunch. Perfect for the occasions.

Fun Casual Holiday Party Dress
Easy to pair this w heels to dress it up or booties /boots to dress down. Agree w other reviews that it does run small. I probably should have worn the small over the xs, but the xs fit my arms better. It is short but the rest of the dress is conservative so I think it's a nice balance

Very comfortable fabric, but fit was definitely loose (could have probably gone a size smaller if there was one), which was a little scary with the low cut but used double sided tape and was fine all night. Wore this to the Nutcracker and got tons of compliments in the ladies' room at intermission :)

Cool Idea, but runs too big
I love the pattern and that these are pants. I wanted to love this and was very excited to wear it on vacation but the XS was gigantic on me. I'm 5'4" and 115 lbs and I could almost take the pants off without unzipping the back because the waist was so big. I was hoping it would fit a bit high and snug around the midsection as the picture on the model shows, but it was drooping low, with my hips barely holding it up. and the pants looked comically large and frumpy as well, as if there was too much material. Not flattering.

Tight Crop Top
I'm not tall (5'4") and the top fit but I was not expecting it to show so much of my mid-drift. From the photo on the model, I expected it to hit below the belly button but it did not, and I don't have a particularly long torso. I ordered the XS but ended up not wearing and returning because a crop top didn't seem to go with the look of the shirt.

Thick material, Cool Pattern, a little frumpy
I could tell that these were good quality. The material was very heavy/thick which is kind of weird for a pair of shorts that you are probably wearing in warm weather (definitely not light and breezy). I love the pattern. The fit was definitely true to size. But the fit had a bit of a diaper effect, which wasn't exactly slimming. I still wore them though.

Perfect Black Leather Jacket
Rented this for the month dec-jan and it was perfection. I usually wore it under a winter coat and it went with almost everything. im not a huge fan of the print cheetah liner, but nobody sees that anyway. I read other reviews that it was boxy. I didn't feel that way. I thought the fit was perfect.

Too short on bottom and too boxy on top
The pictures on the model and from the other reviewers made this sweater dress look really cute but I did not feel comfortable in it. I am 5'4" and 115 lbs and the dress was very short. The top looked almost humorously large. I ended up on wearing.

Perfect for Work to Evening Transition
The fit was great, except the pants were a bit long on me (but I do have short legs for my body). I wore it with a small black heel which dressed it put a little. The material was awesome - felt expensive. My favorite part was that it looked like 2 separate piece but had the ease of being one. I'd definitely recommend this jumpsuit. It is definitely something you can dress in different ways for different occasions - a piece a girl could wear again and again if it was in her closet.

Great for Girls Night Out
It fit perfectly. The low cut in front was not as low as I was expecting and it was not too revealing on a flat chest. The bottom was snug and showed underwear lines so I'd recommend getting appropriate undergarments. All in all, the dress felt very business on the top and party on the bottom (very neon pink). The material was not my favorite - felt a bit like scuba gear.

Great for a Yacht Club Wedding
The dress fit well except was slightly too long even though I wore the 0R w 3.5 inch heels w it (I am 5'4") and also a bit big on the top. I would say it would be a great day to night, except that I am too short to wear flip-flops with it. But it's a great way to walk the line between beachy and formal. And it was very comfortable.

Flapper Retro
Once I saw the dress in person and tried it on, I completely understood why so many people rented this dress for a Gatsby or 20s themed event. I ended up not wearing this dress and going with my back-up instead. The dress was not flattering on me. It made me look boxy and bigger than I actually am. The underarm of the sleeve was also scratchy.

Party Dress
This dress is so much more than it seems. The detail is amazing - especially the racer back with the cut-outs. However, my personal favorite part was it's spin effect. The perfect dress for dancing!! It reminded me of when I was a little girl and would test every dress for "the spin effect" - meaning the dress skirt would have to come up to 180 degrees when i twirled in order to pass. Unfortunately I only got to wear this dress to a wedding brunch, so no dancing ensued. For me personally, I feel like this dress ran true to size, but I also have a very small rib cage and do have to admit that when I ate a VERY BIG brunch I really wanted to unzip it (thanksgiving style). I can understand why people say it runs small, so I would suggest renting one size larger as your backup. Additionally, although it fit my upper body (sans food) like a glove, I barely filled out the boob area. I am flat chested, so this makes sense. So, if you are flat chested, I would suggest wearing one of those tape on breast enhancement stick ons - just to give you an extra size. To sum up, this dress was awesome; order it if you're on the fence (my bf hated it online and loved it in real life). I want to order it again to give it the use it deserves!

Perfect
You could wear this dress for anything, and it's great for all body types. I had no idea what size came in the mail but it fit perfectly. I wore it for a rehearsal dinner and received tons of compliments (per usual when I RTR). It is very sophisticated and preppy but you can make it fit your style with accessories and hair styles. I tried to turn the preppy into "hippie chic" by doing a heidi hair style and using KiraKira's beautiful jewelry and handbag. My one caution would be that if when you sit or raise your arms, it can get a bit short... otherwise, this dress is 100% perfect for any occasion!

Standout Dress
This dress was great - especially if you feel like eating at your event. The only reason I said it ran slightly large is because it was a bit boxy on me (not form fitting). However, I think this was a good thing or else it would have looked a bit slutty, as it is short and very GOLD. Supposedly I was "The Girl with the Gold Dress" at the wedding, which made it very memorable. In some photos i thought it may have made me look bigger than I actually am because it wasn't tight at the waist. I feel like this dress would be amazing on a girl with long legs to really show them off (unfortunately my legs are kind of a bit dumpy for my body - think umpa lumpa). But this dress was great for dancing and having fun. Also, it didn't look worn at all. RTR Success! (sorry for the selfie photo but the best shot i have of the full dress).

Great Summer Dress
I ordered this dress as a last minute backup when the original dress I ordered turned out to be unavailable unfortunately. But I did love this dress. It fit well, and the colors were great and bright and fun. It was also comfortable. The wedding day had extremely hot weather so I would not recommend this dress if you sweat (because it definitely shows on the lightweight material).

Fun!!
When I first tried on this dress I was a little skeptical because I'm not used to showing so much skin (especially in the front). It may run slightly big but you can hide that by tying the back tighter. However, that still meant that more skin showed in the front from the dress hanging longer. I actually rented this for a Welcome dinner for a wedding in Martha's Vineyard but was too scared to wear it because I thought it may be too scandalous - especially since I was attending with my boyfriend and his parents. However, I wore the dress for the Sunday brunch after the wedding and my boyfriend's parents LOVED it and didn't think it was too sexy at all. In fact, they thought it was pretty and cute and great for and mini getaway island wedding. I wish I wore it for the pre-wedding dinner, but am glad it got some use. My favorite part is the way it flows and spins! So fun for dancing.

Runs Very Large
I think the dress would have been very pretty if it had fit (had been about two sizes smaller). I'm not a very tiny person (5'4" and 110-115) but the dress was swimming on me to the point where I thought it may have been mislabeled. It definitely seemed like I was trying on a size 4. I thought it was cute though and was going to try to make it work but my boyfriend said it was so big that it looked silly, so I decided to go with one of my own dresses in my closet unfortunately. Sadly, this was my first rent the runway experience in which I couldn't even wear the dress.

Pretty, Classy, Conservative, but WAY TOO WORN
I wore this dress to a brunch bridal shower at Bryant Park. I believe it would have fit me perfectly except for the fact that it was noticeably worn. It wasn't so much that the lace was tattered but extremely stretched out (especially on top). I am small on top but I thought Id be safe with the size 0; however, I still had to be conscious that the dress wasn't dropping so far down that I'd be flashing the guests. I've read other comments that the arm holes were tight. I had the opposite problem. Someone before me obviously wore this dress in a size or two too small, so the arm holes were very stretched out and sort of looked like little wings when I had my arms down at my side. Even with all these problems though, I got many compliments on the dress, which I was not expecting. So it was not a perfect RTR experience but I learned my lesson on renting newer dresses instead of ones that have been around a while. I feel like I also did some great RTR PR by telling everyone who asked me where I got my dress to check out the site, and they all seemed pretty enthused about it.

Perfect LBD
This dress was my backup. I really liked it and had a hard time choosing between it and my number one choice. It was extremely comfortable, flattering, and the lace aspect put it into the trendy realm. I had trouble choosing between this dress and the other one I ordered, so I asked a few of my guy friends to help me pick and the score was 2-2!! I ended up not going with this dress because I felt the other one had a little bit more personality, but this would have been a great choice too.

Conservative. "Meet the Parents" type dress.
This dress fit extremely well and I felt really good in it. I had recently put on a few pounds so I was looking for a dress that covered me up a bit but was still flattering. This dress was perfect. I'm 5'4" and the dress hit me mid-thigh; it was tasteful and young but not too short/trashy. I was at an event with a lot of older folks so I felt like this dress showed off my youth while not ridiculously flaunting it. It was definitely subdued pretty. Not a dress for the record books but no one could dislike it. And it fits the body flatteringly, so the ones you know will smile when they see you. ;

I'm really into gold and always want to like big jewelry, but in reality it never works for me.
I can't describe why I didnt wear it. It really just didnt feel right with the dress. I wanted something that would make my more conservative dress feel a little bit more hip but it just looked kind of strange to me (and my boyfriend who didnt recommend me wearing it). This may be a taste thing though. I bet a lot of girls could pull it off.
