Stunner!
Loved this dress. Super comfy and got a ton of compliments. It was a little loose in terms of the straps, but I held them down with fashion tape and had zero issues. Was impressed with the coverage for the girls and massive pockets as well. Wish I could keep this one!

Gorgeous!
I wore this for my bridal shower and loved it! This was so pretty, and fit very well. I had rented the 0 and 2, and I went with the 2 for a bit more length and stretch. It was a little short on me (I'm 5'6), but it was manageable (I was still able to wear my Spanx underneath without it showing). Overall, I would DEFINITELY rent this again!

Stunning but tight
I loved the length and color of this dress, but I will say that it was TIGHT. I am a true size 0/2, and I couldn’t even try on the size 0 because it was so small. The 2 was a pretty snug fit, but I wore it. I could only fit it over my head (my hips were too large to step into it and pull in on that way). I’m also a 32D bust, and the side zipper barely zipped all the way up because of the size of my chest. My movement was pretty restricted too due to how tight the dress was - there isn’t any “give”. I got compliments on the dress, and it was so pretty, but in the future, I would go up a size.

Sad to send this dress back. The high neck is so flattering; paired with the tie at the waist, I felt the dress minimized the size of my chest and accentuated my curves. I paired it with black heels for Easter Mass and with cowboy boots for the southwestern-themed wedding reception. It was a bit short, but it wasn't anything unreasonable. The dress was perfect for 70-80 degree Texas weather. Overall, I would recommend this dress!

SO FUN!
I wore this dress to a symphony and LOVED it! It is so colorful and fun. I paired it with nude strappy heels and a bright pink nail polish on my toes. It did wonders for my figure! I would say it's a little bit short, but that didn't take away from the overall fun of the dress! Would definitely rent again.

Showstopper!
I rented this dress for my sorority's semi-formal event. The dress was fabulous, and my date was a huge fan. I had to wear a black bandeau bra under the dress because I was insistent on wearing an actual bra rather than going braless (I'm on the bustier side at 32D). The dress fit like a glove, and I wound up using my smaller back-up size: I am normally a small, but the XS was great. The small gave me more length, but the fit of the shoulders was better on the XS. The XS was also a bit shorter!

Summer Wedding MUST!
This dress is beautiful! It is so feminine and classy and was perfect for a summer outdoor wedding. I did have to adjust it a little bit throughout the event to make sure the girls weren't popping out, but that didn't take away from the beauty of the dress! I love that it's a wrap dress too, so I was able to tie the bow and adjust how much cleavage I was showing, which, as a busty girl, I appreciated. I received many compliments on this dress and would definitely rent it again!

Show Stopper!
This dress was PERFECT for a Christmas wedding. It hugged my curves in all the right places and was very flattering! It made it through the ceremony, dinner, and lots of dancing! Couldn't have been happier. Make sure you have a good strapless bra to go with this dress if you're on the bustier side like me! :)

Show Stopper!
I absolutely LOVE this dress. I rented the exact same one in gold from RTR for prom three years ago, and I loved it so much that I got it in this GORGEOUS blue color for my sorority's formal. It hugged me in all of the right places and still left enough room for my Spanx. The dress is lined, but I am a 32DD, so I had to wear a backless bra, which worked well. I wound up wearing the 6R, but I might have been able to do the 4R... My backup was an 8R because I was worried about room for the girls, but the dress was definitely good for my bust. It really flattered my figure and minimized the girls while giving me an awesome hourglass figure. For shoes, I wore 4-inch heels, and the dress didn't drag. I did take them off to dance, and the dress did drag on the floor a little bit (I'm 5'6) but not too badly. Obviously, I love this dress since I've rented it twice, haha. I am OBSESSED with the cobalt blue color of this one. Got compliments all night long! Rent the Runway, you never disappoint!

Graduation Party Outfit!
Such a fun, feminine, and flirty romper! I loved wearing it! The cut out back appeared to be a problem at first, but I just wore a normal bra with it and felt fine. It is such a lightweight material and the cut out on the back really made the romper breathable - especially since I wore it to an outdoor summer BBQ! I would highly recommend this romper for the summer!

Graduation Dress
I wore this under my graduation gown, and let me just say, it's a show stopper. It's a gorgeous dress, but I had trouble with it because it is very low cut. I used some Fashion Tape to try to hold it in place, but it came off. For my busty girls, be careful because it shows off A LOT of boob, and sadly for me, the Fashion Tape didn't hold up and failed to keep the dress looking modest.

Great Bag!
So sad to return this bag! It matched everything I wore and had ample room for my keys, phone, and makeup that I kept in it. The pale pink is very pretty, and the purse has many different pockets and zippers for extra storage. Loved this purse!

GORGEOUS!
I loved this dress; it was very flattering, beautiful, and perfect for summer! Two things to watch out for, though. First, the picture is very misleading. The dress is actually much more vibrant, having neon pinks, greens, and blues. Second, I am normally a 6, and the 6 fit kind of loosely on me, which I was okay with because I hate skin tight dresses. If you want a more fitted dress, I would recommend your back up dress be down one size. Overall, great springtime/summertime dress!

Beautiful Dress but Not for Me
I love the style and look of this dress and was looking forward to wearing it to my friend's graduation party. When I tried it on, my entire bust was hanging out. I am a very modest person, so the dress was much too revealing for me to wear, especially since I'm a 32DD. I tried to put a white tank top underneath it, but I felt like it ruined the dress. I really wanted to like the dress, but I had to send it back the next day. :(

This dress is a springtime MUST. The fit is very flattering, especially in the bust. It is somewhat revealing but still very classy. The color complimented my skintone so well, and I got so many complements. I love this dress so much that I'm considering buying it!

I love the fit of this dress. The halter-style neck is very flattering and slims down your chest, which is great if you are busty like me. The fit is perfect and hugs you in all of the right places. I would definitely recommend this dress!

I loved the fit and style of this dress. It is very pretty! My only complaint is that the straps kept falling off my shoulders. The rest of the dress fit perfectly, but the bust was a little bit big, which SHOCKED me because I am a 32DD. Overall, a cute dress - perfect for the graduation tea I attended!

These earrings are so pretty! I wore them for my senior prom, and they were very comfortable; they didn't feel heavy or bother me while I was dancing. I would recommend these to anyone looking for a gorgeous pair of earrings for a fancy event.

Perfect for Prom!
I am 5'6 to 5'7, so I was too short and shouldn't have gotten a long version of the medium, but that's entirely my fault on the sizing. It was a gorgeous dress and fit very true to size. The color definitely popped, and I got compliments all night long. It's extremely modest while also being sexy - the high leg slit really gives it something extra! It was easy to move and dance in too! Another huge plus is that it is great for bustier girls, like myself. I am a 32DD, and I wore a backless bra for support, and the dress is SO minimizing! Overall, a great dress!

Sorry for the late review, but I realized that I have to say something about my RTR experience! I rented this fantastic dress for prom my junior year. I am usually between a 6 and 8, so I ordered both (don't worry, you get your "back up" for free). They arrived earlier than expected, which was great and gave me time to troubleshoot. The 8 ended up being a little bit too big below the waist, but the six fit me perfectly. I am not terribly tall (only about 5'6 or 5'7) so I ended up having to do a little bit of work on the bottom and temporarily used some fashion tape to keep it from dragging on the floor. That wasn't a problem, though, since RTR allows temporary alterations as long as you don't damage the dress, which fashion tape will not do. I paired my outfit with some gorgeous strappy nude patent leather stilettos and a golden clutch. Now, just some extra tips when wearing this dress. The back is open (SO PRETTY) so weare of bra options. I was going to wear a traditional bandeau bra but ended up opting for a backless bra (due to the way the straps cross in the back), which worked perfectly. I am a 32DD, so I had to get one with underwire and tape myself into the bra, but it all worked out fine. To my busty girls, this dress is SO flattering. I was really worried that it would make me look disproportionate and like a big fat boob, but it didn't at all. I cannot recommend this dress enough. I got so many complements and no one else was wearing anything close to this gorgeous dress. Plus, this dress is extremely affordable. Most of my friends were talking about how they spent upwards of $100 or $200 for their dresses, while mine was only $70, and I didn't have to keep it! :)
