Beautiful dress that I unfortunately was not able to wear.
Runs very small - definitely size up. It is a BEAUTIFUL dress, but far too snug to lay the way it should. I am a 10 and the 48R zipped but did not lay the way it should and was way too tight.

Not the Kate Spade dress you might be used to
This dress was so cute in color and pattern, but so wrong in size. It ran way too big, and with the shoulder pads that do not remove SO wrong in styling. Sizing down simply wouldn't be the solution with the shoulder pad issue. If they were removable, sizing down could work. But unfortunately, they are not. Such a shame for a really cute dress and pattern.

Runs small and Dress is very heavy
Dress runs small, and the fabric made it too heavy to wear comfortably. Did not wear.

Too big- not flattering. Gorgeous, festive print, if you find the right size for you!
Wrap top- everything was too big: wrap at the chest, waist, sleeves...the print was gorgeous and perfect for holidays to pair with a pencil skirt, pants or jeans. Definitely size down.

This top is stunning!!
Absolutely beautiful top- fit like a glove and was incredibly flattering. I thought this was an all black top- it is navy and black- somehow that slipped past me. Navy and black was fine by me and so beautiful. I had compliments all night, repeatedly from the same people. I felt beautiful and will be wearing again! I paired with a black pencil skirt for the perfect hourglass shape.

Insanely amazing and gorgeous dress
LOVED so much that I had to return to save for another time. It was that great. It takes two people to zip up and is very tight in the hips and chest. Make it work. It is so so fab.

Not the best from Kate Spade
The print on this dress was so fantastic- but the fabric and fit took everything a notch or two down. The armholes gaped, it wasn't as flattering and great a fit as typical Kate spade dresses are for me, and the dress was heavy. It just wasn't great and wouldn't rent again.

Arrived with a stain- never worn- runs small, though!
I didn't get a chance to wear this since it arrived with a stain on the very front of the dress. From trying it on, I can say that as a 10/12 am XL was small. I'm not sure that this would have worked. There is no stretch and very tight- beautiful print though!

Fun, cheery, flattering dress!
I loved wearing this dress, and it looked great! The ruffles on the skirt were so flattering and perfectly placed, also helped to create a beautiful silhouette. The cutouts along the waist and down the front were a little peek to my skin but I never felt exposed. I am a 36D, so there is no chance to go without a bra. I wore a nude strapless and it was not easily noticeable - if at all. Would absolutely wear this dress again. It was perfect and true to size 12.

Beautiful dress, but too small. Will try again.
I rented this dress to see if it would work for an upcoming fall wedding- thank goodness I did because it runs small! I normally wear a 10, at times a 12, and the 10 didn't come close to zipping up. I will definitely try again a size up- it may even need two sizes up based on reviews of the bust. Hoping this works! I suggest having a backup larger size for this one.

Cute summer dress
Cute summer dress...I wore this for every day, on a particularly HOT day, and it was perfect. I am a 36D and it was too small in the bust for me, but fine. I wouldn't wear this again, since sizing up would make every other part of the dress to big. One note for RTR: there was a small hole in the left pocket.

A bit too much going on
I really wanted this dress to work, but there is just too much going on for me. The color and pattern is lovely! But the ruffles and style and all of it together was too much. I returned without wearing.

Beautiful dress; stunning blue color
This was a beautifully cut dress and such a stunning cobalt blue. Unfortunately, this dress didn't fit quite right for a 36D chest. This is the first RTR that I returned without wearing. I'm not sure that sizing up would make a difference.

Another great Slate & Willow dress!
Definitely give this dress a try. Hanging on a hanger or photos alone doesn't do this dress justice. It is so flattering on, the tie at the waist was just perfect to create an hourglass shape- perfect height at the waist and pulled the dress in beautifully! The sweet ruffles at th shoulder were just right. Not too much. I loved the print, pattern- lovely dress! I had one issue with the center button at the chest coming undone, but that is an easy fix. Definitely renting this again.

Perfect summer dress
This was such a perfect lightweight dress! The lining was everything, and the option to tie multiple ways was great. I am a 36D and was able to wear this comfortably without a bra- and that never happens. Lovely dress.

cute summer dress
This is a cute summer dress with fun colors and flowers. With some of the RTR stunners I have found, this dress was just okay for me. It was cute and flattering. The bust was a tad snug but I liked that it ties (and stays tied) so you can adjust it for a nicer fit.

I loved everything about this skirt- and per the usual with RTR, received a ton of compliments.
The colors of this skirt were so beautiful and striking. It was comfortable to wear, very flattering, and paired perfectly with a simple black cami. I wore this multiple times: work meeting, out for dinner...it was great! I will be renting again.

So fun & a ton of compliments!
Fits true to size; incredibly flattering; fun print. I wore this for work, every day, paired with a black blazer on a chilly day- it's a really comfortable and flattering dress. Fab!

LOVE this summer date/everyday dress!!
I rented this dress for date night and dressier everyday. It runs slightly large, but it works well that way. The one shoulder is so flattering, fitted waist allows for nice definition, and I even love the high/low skirt. And I am not a high/low trend fan at all. The print is gorgeous over black. I received endless comments- I will wear this dress a few more times before returning and will definitely rent again. Love it! Update: I did end up wearing this for so many events: date, dinner out, even a backyard bbq. I hated returning this beauty!

True to size, cute dress
Fits true to size and is a cute dress. Material does not have any flex to it, so it is not entirely comfortable when sitting down. Nice day dress :)

Super cute, in theory
Great design, really cute standing in front of a mirror. But WAY too short when you start moving around. And forget it if a breeze hits. For 5'8"", the drawstring waist fell a bit too high. Pockets were nice, fit is great. The back has an open slit, so either a camisole or bra alternative (or bra showing) will be needed. I will definitely not be wearing this again based on not being able to walk around comfortably. It doesn't seem too short when you try it on, but natural movement ended up making this a dress that was not forgiving.
