Beautiful color but just ok fit
Got this for a spring wedding which ended up being a cold rainy day. The color is beautiful and the fabric is stretchy. However I definitely had to wear Spanx with this and most of the time I don't have to. I feel like the fabric or the cut just make all your wobbly parts show. Would definitely rent again though!

Perfect Spring Dress
I've been a lover of Kate Spade dresses for awhile. This one did not disappoint. It's a little tight compared to your average size but definitely still zips up. The pockets are amazing. The cut makes you look so skinny. And love the print as it's perfect for a daytime shower or party.

Way Way Too Small
I rented this for my rehearsal dinner. I've rented several dresses from RTR for my wedding related activities and I'm always a size 6. I ordered a 6 in this dress and I couldn't even get it over my bust. I had to check the size cause I swore they sent me like a size 2 or 0. Obviously I didn't wear it as it was too short to even get on. Bummer but thanks to fabulous RTR I was able to swap it out for something else!

Perfect Bridal Shower Dress
Rented this for my bridal shower and it was perfect! A great color for the shower and super flattering. I know others commented about how it was tight at the shoulders and arms. I did feel like it was tight but it still was entirely comfortable. I didn't feel squished or constricted.

Obsessed!!!
Absolutely obsessed with this dress. I don't normally wear revealing clothes so this was a step outside of my comfort zone but also super comfy. The back makes it sexy and fun. I'm large chested but a sticky bra was totally fine for me. It fit great and exactly what I wanted for a spring wedding.

Cute and plenty of room
Loved this simple bag. Had plenty of room the essentials and even fit the playbill from the show we went to. Highly recommend for anyone who wants to add some excitement to their outfit.

Awesome fit
I normally wear a 10 but unfortunately the 12 was the only one available at the NYC store. However this dress was still amazing just had a slightly looser fit. I felt amazing and looked pretty fantastic. One word of caution to my fellow big chested sisters. I'm a 34DD/32 DDD and I had to tape the heck out of the girls to keep them in. Granted I was wearing a size bigger than normal so that may have been a cause of some of it. I did not wear a bra but used sticky tape to lift and keep everything in place. Overall I'd definitely rent the dress again!

Fabulous dress!
I rented this for a formal banquet and just loved it. I'm 5'8 and wore 3" heels. The long was perfect for this. The dress does show imperfections. I actually wore it with a waist trainer/corset and spanx! However it looked so good hugging my curves. Surprisingly it was very comfortable. I had to stand up several times for applause and didn't have a problem with the dress. It fit true to size which is equally impressive as I'm a 34DD and generally have problems with the bust zipping. Highly recommend this dress!

Great fancy touch
I loved these earrings. They were a great fancy touch to my formal dress. Only complaint is one was slightly twisted so it faced a funky angle. I was able to manipulate it somewhat to fix it. They did not feel heavy at all!

Love!!!
I adore anything Kate Spade and this dress did not disappoint. I'm typically a 10 and have worn this designed before. I ordered the 10 per usual and it fit great. The side zipper was more difficult than usual but still got it up no problem. I'm a 34DD and the top also fit great. Got plenty of complements and just ordered this dress!

LOVED IT!
LOVED this dress. I normally wear a size 10 and ordered the 10 and 12 for a semi formal wedding. The 10 fit perfectly. As others stated the bust does jet out a little bit and you need wardrobe tape for it to look right. I'm a 36DD and still needed to tape it down. I did not wear a traditional bra and had no issues as well, which for all my big chested sisters that's amazing! I received numerous complements on this dress and regretted returning it. My boyfriend couldn't keep his hands off my either :) I HIGHLY recommend this dress!
