Awesome and quirky
This was so cool. Made me feel "dressed up," despite having jeans and a sweatshirt on to run weekend errands fashionably. I would rent this again! People may ask you "what happened to your second sleeve?" Just brush that off as misinformed commentary from the peanut gallery. So cozy and cool! Paired it with black velvet booties, black rose embroidered jeans, and a ponytail.

Fun, unique dress!
This was an awesome choice for NYE! I paired it with black tights, black velvet booties, and a leather jacket. The cold shoulder was an awesome surprise when we went to dinner and I removed the jacket. Love the ribbon tie neck. Only drawbacks? It was super short and see thru... so at 5'9" this meant tights were a must (and I felt a draft all night!). All in all -- good rental. Size up for length and comfort if youre on the fence.

Meh.
The photo is much more vibrant than the in-person purse. I ended up not using it. Would be great with jeans, t-shirt, and blazer. Not good for formal occasions.

Fun, mermaid-esque dress
While a smidge tight... the length was AWESOME! I'm 5'9" and loved it for a Vegas girls' night out. The sequins were a bit itchy under the arms, but not too bad. Definitely recommend Spanx since it's tight and molds to your body. Great for curvy, tall girls. Would rent again.

Gorgeous... but too tight!!
If you have a swimmer's back or large rib cage... size up 2 sizes or forget about it. I was so disappointed. It's a gorgeous gown.

Stunner!
This was the perfect shirt for a date night at a fancy-yet-casual restaurant. I wore it with distressed black jeans, and nude strappy heels. The husband took one look at me, eyes bugged out, and said "oooohhh I like your outfit!" I hope to rent it again soon!!

Not for wide chests.
Beautiful fabric, but could not zip this!! It's high waisted and slim in the chest. I'm a 38C and normally a 14. Couldn't even fit in the 16. Bummer.

Beautiful dress. Plenty warm!
Having just had a baby 2.5 months ago, I needed a dress that actually FIT me (thanks, RTR!). This was a 2nd choice dress but quickly became my favorite. Wore it to a winter wedding a week before Christmas. I'm tall and have hips, so was relieved to find a dress that accentuated all the right spots without hugging too tightly. The lace is stunning, but a little stiff up top. I found the fit on the bottom more flattering than the fit in the arms. I was grateful, though, for the long sleeves in icy weather! Keep in mind -- it's near impossible to wear a bra with this dress. I'm a 38C and felt a little self conscious about the girls being free range. Got plenty of compliments.

Not for tall ladies
This dress is fun -- a unique look for a daytime wedding, especially. Unfortunately, it was way too short for me at 5'9". From the front it was wonderful, but the slit in the back went up past my rear! I even tried sizing up, but that didn't work. If you're 5'7" or taller, I'd say "skip it."
