Beautiful Dress
Loved the colors and fit of this dress. I wore it to various work meetings in hot and humid Texas and received many compliments that included such a classic look and I looked like Jackie O! I am usually a size 4 and the size 4 fit perfectly. Would rent again.

Beautiful Work Dress
Wore this dress for corporate work meetings and received compliments. The pattern is striking. I am usually a size 4 in dresses but ended up wearing the size 2 as it fit better. The size 4 was large. The bottom wrap part opens easily but I just safety pinned it so I didn't have to worry about exposing too much. I enjoyed wearing this unique print.

Beautiful Vibrant Red Color
I am usually a small but ended up wearing the medium. I felt the larger size gave me more room in the upper arms. Dress has stretch and give. The color is beautiful. It is a heavier weight dress that is warm so it was perfect for meetings in DC when it was snowing. I enjoyed wearing this dress and would rent again.

Beautiful Dress for Work/Going Out
I am usually a size 4 but wore the size 6. It fit better overall and the v-neck laid flat unlike the size 4 where the neckline puckered up. Size 4 also fit a little tight in the upper arms. Material does not have much give. V-neck was a little low cut for work but I wore a black shirt underneath. The slit is also a little high for work so I wore black tights. The slit does open up when sitting so I kept my legs tucked under the table or put my jacket in my lap to keep from overexposing myself. I enjoyed wearing the dress and it looked great but I probably would not rent again.

Beautiful Red Dress!
I received so many compliments on this dress! I usually wear a 4 but wore the 6. The 4 was a little tight in the arms/shoulders. The 6 was a little big in the waist but with the tie, no one could tell. Gorgeous true red color. Stayed warm in the air conditioning. Dress is heavy with lots of material so I would not wear this during a Texas summer.

Beautiful Dress - Form Fitting
This is a beautiful very form fitting dress. It does have stretch to it. This was a backup dress when my original pick did not work out. The longer length makes it age appropriate (50s) and it has just enough glimmer and shine to make it dressy. The neckline drape is beautiful. Would wear this dress again.

Beautiful Color
The dress is a beautiful color and I love the bow in the back. Unfortunately I did not end up wearing it as I could not figure out how to hide my bra strap in the back. I was attending a large corporate holiday party and it would have been very unprofessional for my bra band to show. Going braless was not going to work for me either. Even though the bow is in the back, the rest of the back is still open so bras show.

Runs Large
Dress overall runs large. I normally wear a 4 and the size 2 in this dress was the better fit but was still a little big in the waist. I didn't end up wearing this as the arm holes are so large they showed my bra band and I was not able to go braless. It is also very long and I would have had to wear very high heels. It's a beautiful color abut otherwise kind of shapeless and nothing special.

Beautiful Dress - Lots of Compliments
The dress is fitted on top and flowy on the bottom. I am usually a size 4 but sized down to a 2. It fit across the chest but was a little big in the waist and the armholes were huge. Wore a strapless bra but had to use tape to bring the dress up some under the armpits otherwise the bra band would show. May have been able to go another size down. Wore to a summer corporate Board of Directors dinner. Light fabric which was perfect for 90 degree heat.

Beautiful Casual Dress - May Want to Size Down
Wore this dress with black cowboy boots to a casual western themed fundraiser. Dress looked great with boots and was a way to dress up without wearing jeans. Dress runs a little large especially the armhole openings. I sized down just to have smaller armhole openings so my bra band did not show. Plenty of room through the waist and thigh area.

Colorful Party Dress
Wore this to a beach party at a day club in Vegas. Wanted something cute and fun to wear over my swimsuit. Dress is very vibrant and stood out. Has deep pockets which was very nice. Wore my usual size which was fitted in the chest. The smaller size was definitely tight in the chest.

Perfect Sweater for Nautical Themed Event
Wore this to a non-profit fundraiser dinner with a nautical theme. Wore with a pair of cream colored pants and it was perfect. It is a warm sweater which was fine because the event was held inside and the air conditioning was cool. The smaller size fit but was really short (cropped length) so I chose to wear the next size up so the length was a little longer.

Beautiful Dress
I wore this dress to a corporate board meeting and received many compliments. The size 2 fit but was a little tight in the upper arms so I wore the size 4. This dress is a true bright red. Material does not wrinkle so it is great for sitting through long meetings. I loved this dress so much that when I got home I found it online and bought it. It's classic so I will be able to wear it for years to come.

Beautiful Dress
I wore this dress to an evening political party and it was perfect for the event. I felt like the front hem of the dress was a little short for me so I wore the dress with tights and that made me feel more comfortable. The dress fit tight in the chest so I wore one size up. It fit better in the chest and was just a tad big through the torso but it looked better than a completely crushed chest in the smaller size. I am renting this dress again for a corporate Christmas party.

Beautiful Dress. Lots of Compliments.
The dress is beautiful and so unique. Wore this to a corporate summer dinner. The straps were a little long but I safety pinned the slack and it worked. Dress has deep pockets which was wonderful to hold my keys, cash, etc. Dress fit tight across the chest but the next size up was too big in the torso. Because it fit tight, I did not have to wear a bra. The girls were squished and had no shape but all attention was focused on the beautiful dress.

Beautiful Red Dress
This dress is a true red. I rented it to wear to a Republican gala one night and my alma mater's business school happy hour reception the next night. I received many compliments. I am usually a size 4 and wore the 4. I ordered a size smaller (size 2) for backup and wish I had gone up a size and ordered the 6. The dress was a little tight across the chest but not too bad. The "V" neckline is cut a little deep but I secured it with tape to make sure I did not show too much cleavage. I was able to wear a regular bra with the dress. The dress has deep pockets which was wonderful.

Beautiful Dress! True Red.
I wore the size 4 which was a little tight in the arms (I have muscular arms) but had a little room through the torso area. I wore this to a corporate holiday party. The shoulder cut outs made the dress interesting but still conservative for the corporate environment. The dress hit just above my knee and the slight ruffle/flounce of the skirt was another fun detail. I wore it with gold glitter hose and black flats. Received many compliments. Material was heavier but certainly not too heavy. Perfect for South Texas winter weather. Would rent again.

Beautiful Deep Red Color
I wore this dress to a Board of Directors holiday party. I received many compliments on this dress. I am a regular size 4 and the 4 fit well. The dress is fitted through the hips and thighs but the ruching helps hide any flaws. I was able to wear a strapless bra with a halter strap. The dress hit me just below the knee. The deep red color is beautiful. I was afraid this dress would be too flashy for a corporate event where most attendees were 65+ years old but it was very tasteful and was perfect.

This was my backup dress for a Board of Directors holiday party which I did not end up wearing. The color is beautiful. The to part fit well and I liked the dramatic back. The hips and thighs were too tight though. I am regularly a size 2/4 but I do have muscular thighs from biking. I would rent this again in a size 6.

Beautiful Red Dress!
This dress fits true to size. I am normally a size 4 and I wore the 4. I did not even try on the size 6. I am 5'4" and the dress hit me just below the knee. The neckline would open a bit depending on how I moved so I wore a black camisole underneath that would sometimes barely show but I wanted to not worry about revealing too much cleavage. The dress is a beautiful bright red color. I wore it to a birthday dinner but it would also be appropriate for work.

Classic and Simple Dress
I loved the simplicity of this dress. I was able to wear it to work with a casual black blazer and then wear it out to dinner after work. The cowl neck is warm but I put on a sweater in the evening so my arms would not be cold and to cover up a bit. The arm holes were quite large and the sides of my bra would have shown without the blazer and sweater. The small fit slightly tight in the hips and rear so I don't think I could have gone to an XS. The Medium which I ordered as a backup was certainly too big.

Classic and Elegant Dress
I rented this dress for my birthday dinner. It is a simple, elegant, classic black dress. The V neckline was a little deep and the armholes were low. I pinned the straps to make them shorter which brought the dress up and this solved the problems. Because I had safety pins in the straps, I wore a pashmina to cover up. The fit was tight across the chest but the size 6 was too big through the torso and waist. It is a beautiful dress but I probably would not rent again due to the fit issues.

Beautiful Dress!
I wore this dress to my sister's wedding which was a non-traditional wedding in her backyard overlooking the water in Seattle. The Small Regular fit perfectly. My backup size in Medium was definitely too big in the arm pits and gaped open. It was so nice to wear a regular bra with this dress. The colors are beautiful and I received many compliments on the dress. The dress was tea length on my 5'4" frame. The material is on the heavier side but was perfect for Seattle's cool evenings. Would definitely rent this dress again!

Beautiful Attention Grabbing Dress!
The feathers are so much fun! I normally wear a size 4 but had no problem fitting into the size 2. Even though I have broad shoulders and tops are usually tight across the bust, the size 4 was a little large in the armholes and overall fit but the size 2 was perfect. I received so many compliments on this dress. The material is heavy but it was perfect for a December winter day in Denver when it was snowing. The waist was slightly empireish on me so the dress was fuller in the waist and stomach area. I wore the dress to a non-profit's holiday brunch where I was being sworn in as an officer. I was afraid it may be too dressy but it was perfect. It was tea length on me (I am 5'4"). Would definitely rent again! I have always had a perfect experience with RTR!

I Love This Dress! It Is a Head Turner!
I rented this dress for a charity dinner and auction function I was chairing. I live in Colorado where everyone dresses pretty casual but I wanted to stand out and this dress was perfect for that. I was running around all evening trying to make sure everything was being handled and a man stopped me to tell me that every woman was talking about me - every time I walked by, every woman would stop and comment on the dress. People kept telling me how elegant and classic I looked. The bustle in the back is fun. I normally wear a size 4 and the 4 fit but it was tight in the chest (I have a small bust but broad shoulders and back). The length on me was a little below the knee and the skirt is full and fun. I did sit during part of dinner and had no issues with the bustle. The dress was comfortable. I did wear a strapless bra because the straps on the dress were think and I didn't want to chance my bra straps showing. I had to change in the car after setting up the silent auction so I did not want to mess with trying to tape my bra straps either. I would definitely rent this dress again.

Beautiful Floral Print...A Dress You Don't See Everyday
I wore this dress to a volunteer appreciation dinner. It is a beautiful dress that is dressy but a little less formal than cocktail attire. I have a small chest but have broad shoulders and an athletic back and this dress fit tight across the chest. The size 2 fit better in the waist but would have been very uncomfortable in the top. The size 4 was still a little tight across the top and was a little big in the waist but it worked out fine.

Beautiful Dress!
I wore this dress to a day wedding on Valentine's Day and then out to dinner that night with my husband. I added a black pashmina wrap as I live in Denver and even though it was 60 degrees there was still a chill in the air. I have broad athletic shoulders and the dress fits snugly in the chest. I wore the size 4 which is my normal size. I tried on the size 6 which was more comfortable in the chest but a little big overall everywhere else - the size 4 just looked better. The dress was beautiful and arrived perfectly pressed. It was comfortable to spend the day in. I would definitely rent this dress again.

This dress is gorgeous!
Everyone commented on how beautiful the dress is and how they loved the back. It is truly a show stopper when you walk out of a room or turn your back on someone. I wore this dress to my husband's holiday office party which was cocktail attire. I usually wear a size 4 and the size 4 of this dress fit beautifully. I did not even try on my backup size 6. I accessorized with diamond drop earrings and Miu Miu sandals with jewels in the heels. This dress is simple but dramatic so it does not need much accessorizing. The skirt is full so it hides wide hips. I was worried about sitting at the dinner table in this dress with the full skirt but had no trouble at all.
