Boxy but cute
I think if I'd gotten a smaller size this might have worked. It's really cute, just a bit too boxy for someone like me (broad shoulders, big chest, little waist).

Felt like royalty
I am 5'10 and wore about 4 inch heels and was able to dance in the Reg length (long would have been too long ) I probably could have gone down a size and would have preferred a big snugger fit but was able to go without a bra (I'm a 34D) even though it wasn't that snug . SO comfortable and regally classy, yet the red underneath was fun . Got compliments all night. Highly recommend

Just perfect
I was going to a fancy picnic with my dates parents. Needed something super cute but not revealing. This dress was amazing. One thing that wasn't noted anywhere -- the "belt" on the dress is beaded!! Perfect for a wedding but not for a picnic. Hence the belt, which totally solved the problem!! Perfection.

Cute but..,
This dress us very cute. I did not have the gapping issues others noted at the chest. I'm between an 8 & 6 and the 6 was perfect (I'm 34D & 5'10"). The skirt looks short but is very lovely on. It was just a bit too cutesy for my event but would be lovely for a summer brunch.

Breathtakingly sexy showstopper.
Wow. As a guy told me, he stopped in his tracks when he saw this dress. It's incredible. Thick material is comfy but it's very streamlined -- you might want light spanx for a really smooth fit. I was able to go braless (I'm a 34D) & the girls looked great. I typically wear a 6 or 8 & the 10 was perfect, so keep that in mind.

Great fit, sexy & versatile dress.
Really comfortable and sexy dress. I wore booties and a leather jacket to " funk" it up but it could easily go dressy too. I am 34D and didn't need a bra (think material held me in). Loved loved loved this. And so did my date. ;-)

Classic yet original
I wore this to work all day and got away with the sheer panel (not very noticeable but give it JUST enough edge), then to a formal cocktail affair in San Francisco. No wrinkles; it wore very well for some 10 hours total! The hemline is just gorgeous -- very unique. I wore my hair up & changed in to sparkly earrings to make it a bit more formal and it did the trick. A woman told me I was the best dressed person there... and this was a high society event. Would definitely recommend.

Classic but funky
I carried this with the Bibhu Pinor Noir gown to the Grammys. The black accents perfecly complimented the black on the dress and the gold on my gold & black shoes. The clutch was a bit vintage, a bit edgy. Really liked it.

I wouldn't have chosen this dress, but I was in the NY showroom and the girls suggested it. I wore this to the Grammys in LA and literally turned EVERY head. The color is amazing (a dark fuschia). The rear view is seriously flattering. The thigh slit is super sexy (and high, be forewarned). I didn't wear a bra and was fine. You may want to wear Spanx (the front is tight and flat); I got away without them but work high briefs. I sat for hours at the Grammy ceremony and the dress didn't wrinkle and hung well through the after part(ies). Highly recommend. The photos don't do it justice.

I wish I knew...
The 46L was too big and RTR didn't have the 44L in stock in the red. I tried the black at the showroom and it was... eh. I needed a knock-out dress and REALLY wanted this one but it just didn't work out.

Gorgeous classy gown
This was provided to me b/c the dress I'd originally rented was not available. This is a breathtaking classic gown that would be perfect for any black tie affair. I needed something a bit funkier, so I didn't wear it, but I'd definitely rent again for a more "corporate" event. Very flattering and gorgeous.

Not so much
The 8 was tight, had been cleaned too many times (lining was poking out), and was SHORT! I'm 5'10" but I'm a girl who really likes showing her legs. This was, well, a Vegas dress if you know what I mean. And I wasn't in Vegas. The 10 was way too big in the middle (kid of pooched out), so this one just didn't work for me.

Super cute for a party night.
This dress was comfy, sexy, fun. I could wear a regular (nude) bra. It really showed off my legs (I'm 5' 10" so it wouldn't be so short on others, but it was perfect -- not too short to sit, just short enough to turn heads!!).

Pretty in pink
Rachel Roy makes fantastic professional attire that has a bit of pizazz. This dress was incredibly flattering and comfortable (it's not the best photo... sorry!). The slit was something to be conscious of when sitting, but was totally appropriate when standing. I wore this for a work presentation in DC and stood out from the crowd of dark suits & dresses. With a black blazer, you could definitely do this for Fall. Highly recommend.

Fun LBD.
I wore this for a work dinner. Fit perfectly, but if you want a big more room, you might wish to size up. I'm 5'10" and it's on the short side, with a bit of cleavage, so it wouldn't be good for a "stuffy" event if you're curvy like me, but I found it fun and flirty and still professional. I tried to show the semi-peplum in the side photo -- the detail is really cute at the waist & sleeve and very flattering.

Comfy, professional, fun
This was a great dress for a client dinner where I didn't want to be too buttoned-up (at Southfork Ranch from "Dallas" - see photo). I'm standing in a way that makes it look "pooched" in front -- that's me; not the dress! The dress was very flattering, comfortable, and cute. The keyhole neck is fun but not too revealing. The 8 was a bit loose (comfy for dancing). Material is heavy ponte so it doesn't tug anywhere. Would rent again.

Showstopper
I (deliberately) chose this dress for a huge business presentation in a room full of men in navy & charcoal suits. The details on the neckline and back were gorgeous. (See close up) The fit was perfect -- not too tight, not too loose. It was literally breathtaking, yet classic and totally business appropriate. No one missed me; everyone complimented me.

Fun and flirty.
My only complaint was that (likely due to too much dry cleaning) the liner hung out a bit on the bottom. This is a sexy beautiful dress. I rented it for Fashion Week events in NYC. It was perfect.

Perfect.
I rented this to wear for a big presentation at work and a client dinner thereafter (black blazer in day, change of pumps/jewelry for evening). It was totally appropriate yet not stodgy. VERY versatile, comfortable, wore well through a 12+-hour day. I highly recommend and only apologize that I forgot to take a photo.

Stylist surprise
These came as my "surprise" with a dress I rented. They are very pretty earrings, but were a bit too much for the event I was going too (too much bling). They'd be gorgeous for a more formal event and/or to dress up a plainer dress (I rented a lace dress, so the combo with these earrings would've been too much for the event I was attending, though perfect for black tie). The earrings are very light, so they'd be good for all night wear.

Classic. Sexy. Gorgeous. Fit like it was made for me. I would've purchased the dress instantly if I had that option. Wore it to a business cocktail dinner & then out on the town. Grace Kelly with a bit more sass.

This didn't work for me. It was like sausage casing. Not a good look and not comfortable.
I rented this as my "safe" dress for backup and it didn't work at all. Seemed to run quite small and was not flattering.

This dress was part of one of the most fun weekends I've ever had! Thanks RTR!! I love you!
Vegas with the girls. I previously rented this dress in the blush color (also very pretty but a different effect). This was a knock-out. Hugged in all the right places, but VERY comfortable. I danced all night and was very... umm... popular at the club, shall we say? I can't recommend it enough. I'm athletic, but curvy -- big shoulders, butt, small waist, muscular legs. It fit perfectly.

I wear an 8 in most clothes, but I have broad shoulders & am a 34D. The medium fit perfectly. I literally got stopped in a bar/restaurant in NYC & told (by women I didn't know) that I looked better then anyone else in the place. And we all know that ,eans more than the guys, right? Sexy (short), comfy (I ate & drank in it all night). Ive already reserved in red for a Vegas weekend!!

Feeling all dressed up and looking A-OK for an old lady!
I wanted a sexy but classic dress for a dinner out with the husband & drinks with friends. This ran a little bit tight, and the dress itself was a bit more worn than others I've rented from RTR, but it worked just fine. I'd give it a B. Probably would've gotten an A- if it hadn't been so popular (& was in better shape!). Hubby loved it.
