Lovely Spring Lace Colors
I really wanted this dress to work out. It was my initial rent, rented a backup style JIC. This dress would be prefect for a spring time event / Easter. I found the dress to be a little to pale in color for me and the particular occasion. The green and purple are subtle, if you're tan - you're in business. Fit wise ( tried on size 6): the shoulders are large. I'm guessing the arms are made to be loose as I have a swimmers build and usually have trouble with tight sleeves/ anything lace on the arms. These sleeves didn't even hug my arms- not that it was a bad thing, it was just unexpected so be prepared. The neck line is low, but not too revealing. Fit through the bust line was comfortable and you can wear a regular bra. The waist fit perfect. The legs had room to move and walk comfortably. Be ready for the zipper to be tricky over the seams, with the lace it does stick a little. It's a beautiful dress, it just didn't work for my occasion.

Sensational
I usually don't wear strapless, but I loved the color and was curious about the hemline. I'm Very Happy I decided to order this dress. Many compliments all evening. The dress has a built in bar/ support system. Fit wise: the top was comfortable and not restrictive or revealing. Waist fit like a glove. Roomy in the thigh. Length , ok me, in the front is tea length and longer in the back/ sides. The hemline was fun without calling too much attention. Was able to move around, sit, eat and dance. Great dress. Would recommend, will probably rent again if not buy.

Great summer dress
This dress exceeded my expectations. When I read the other reviews I was wondering if I would like the fabric at all. The material is actually very soft and does have some stretch to it. I believe the dress runs a little large. I pulled the 6 on without web unzipping it. Overall the dress is comfortable and fun. I would wear to lunch, brunch , happy hour, polo match or a picnic. I think there are lots of options for this piece. Style it up or just throw on some sanders and enjoy.

Beautiful Color
Great dress. Loved the color. The lace was nice, not scratchy. The length was a nice tea length on me( I am 5'11"). The dress overall was a nice weight, not heavy like some lace can be. The arms were surprisingly not overly tight. I was unable to wear this dress because it was too tight in the shoulder. I normally would have ordered the 8 with this 6 as backup, but the 8 was not available. I am unsure if I would have worn the 8, as the body of the 6 fit wonderfully. I am athletic and have broad shoulders, so that may be something to consider when choosing a size in this dress as the lace does not stretch/ give. Overall I did like the dress and wish it could have worked out.

So Cute on!
I was unsure what to expect when I ordered this, but I'm incredibly glad I did. The material does have a little stretch to it. The fabric is medium weight. I really enjoyed the feel of the material and that it could be worn morning, mid day and evening in the Houston weather. The detail is printed in the dress, there is no embroidery to pull. The detail sits very nicely when the dress is on. The way the fabric stretches and the placement of the detail allows the dress to give you a slimming appearance. This is a wonderful piece. It's cute. It can be dressed up or worn casual. It's comfortable. I would recommend it for everyday office, brunch, drinks after work or dinner. I would have kept this one if I could have.

Bright and Beautiful
You will love this dress if you love yellow....and maybe even if you dont. The first thing i would like to say is that if you do not have a bust please consider sizing down or wearing a pushup bra or not renting. This dress has built in boning and bra. That said I felt like there is a little extra room there. I know my profile says 34D, but i would consider it more 34C at the moment. I might have been able to get away with the size down. This dress was brand new, so no it was not wore and stretched out. My suggestion would be to get your normal size and the size down just to make sure the bust fits, as it is strapless. OTHERWISE, the dress is SUPER. the color, material and fit in the waist are very flattering. The color almost gives you a nice glow. The skirt is not too short on the shorter side. I am 5'10'' and i felt very comfortable with the length. for reference the back came down to mid calf. I would rent this dress again in one size smaller. I would even purchase it at the next sale, its a great spring/summer piece for multiple events.

Great Color
This dress was sent to me as a backup dress when the dress I ordered became unavailable. The dress was brand new and beautiful! The fit is mostly true to size, could be considered a little on the running large side. Being from Texas, I would say that this dress is a spring/fall dress. the material is not so much heavy as there is a lot of it. I am 5'10" and the dress was mid calf length. I like this dress and felt that if my event had been a little more formal I could have worn this. I chose not to wear it as I felt it would make me appear more like a bridesmaid than a guest.

I did not end up wearing this cuff as I went with a backup dress that did not match. The cuff fits nicely over your wrist. Its light and does not move around. It is stylish and eye catching without being and "in your face" statement piece. I like this cuff and would rent again for another outfit.

Love the color and weight for summer
This dress was sent to be as a backup size. To my surprise the 6 fit nicely. I like the color and the fact that the dress is fitted in the waist but free flowing in the skirt. The length on this dress is very appropriate for any event. I ended up going with a different dress because my husband did not care for the fit, he said the dress made me look very straight ( ie no hips or bust). I think he said this because of the color and material in the top......regardless I went with another dress for this event.

Easy casual Friday or weekend brunch dress
I was sent this dress as a backup dress, the dress I had ordered became unavailable. I like the dress. It is an easy option for a pull over dress. The dress is fitted around the waist with an elastic band. The top flows so as not to be restrictive in the bust area. The skirt is flattering without being tight. I did not end up wearing this dress as I am just a little to pale for these light pastel colors. I think it would be a great dress for a casual day at work, happy hour or even weekend brunch.

I wore this dress to an outside wedding in Texas in May. The lace is wonderful over the dark blue. The lace is very comfortable, not scratchy at all. I am 5'10'' and the length was just above my knees. Many, many compliments on this dress. I would rent again, or even purchase at the next sample sale. I would like to note that this was a backup dress for me. My husband loved the color and cut so much that I ended up going with this dress. You will not be disappointed.

Twist on the LBD
This dress is beautiful on. The cut of the dress really makes a statement, adds a fun look to a sophisticated dark cocktail dress. The material is soft and will stretch if needed. I found the length of this dress perfect just above the knee (I'm 5'10 ). I would recommend this dress for work functions or cocktail parties. I found this dress to run a little large. In my normal dress size the dress had a fist full of extra material to be gathered around the mid section and it gaped a little in the arms. Overall I like the dress and would rent this dress again, but in a smaller size.

These earrings are great. I wore them to a wedding, because they were paired with the dress i rented for the occasion. Probably a little big for a family wedding, but they still looked great. I would reccomend these for any going out outfit and even some jeans, heels and a shirt.

Classic and Fun
Received the 8 and the 6 in this dress, both looked brand new. The 8 fit great. The waist is fitted and falls into a nice skirt. The lace on the upper body makes the dress really look more black, but in the right light you can see a hint of the underlayer, which is white- not silver. Love the pockets on this dress as they fit right into the skirt and do not give the bunchy illusion as some dresses with pockets. You can wear a regular bra with this, even though the back is a V back, it drops just above your strap line. The dress also has strap snaps on the shoulders if you are worried about slippage. The only thing i would tell you is be mindful of ordering the correct size. Too large and the lace uptop will not lay flat. Too small and you will never get it zipped past the waist. Overall, i didnt want to send it back: hope it goes up for sale soon because I loved it and so did our entire family.

Great color and pattern. Material is thick , but stretches- will hold you in. My husband loved the dress on me and so did my friends. I have some strong legs, so the dress did ride up a little while walking up stairs and dancing, otherwise comfortable and fun for a concert.

Clutch to make your outfit
This purse was great. I have an android in an otterbox case, so it did not fit, but otherwise the purse is large enough for your party evening or dinner date out needs. One thing, careful with the strap- when mine arrived i pulled the strap out to use as a shoulder strap and one side came off. I was able to hook it back one. This made me decide to carry as a clutch though, which worked out just fine. Its small enough to carry and not be in your way. The color is a shimmer of green and purple, not exactly as the picture, but you will be be happy with the way the colors appear in the light. It a great addition to your outfit.

Make you feel Great dress ( size down)
I would like to start by saying that this dress is absolutely well made, exceptional detail and will make you feel like a princess. One benefit for your mental health is: you must size down. I know you read a lot of reviews and you never know who actually wears what size and who shouldn't actually be wearing that size.....but please believe me that the dress runs large. I rented this dress thinking that it wouldn't matter if the backup size was available or not and was caught off guard when it arrived too big. I put on a push up bra and clipped the inside to help the body or the dress tighten up and become more flattering so that I could try and wear it to a dinner party. I ended up contacting RTR and having them send me something else for the event I had rented for though. That said, you will LOVE this dress ( just get the correct size, or make sure to get a backup size). The dress is beautiful; the fabric detail, the neckline and the full skirt - it will make your event.

Great Pop off Color
These earrings are fun, fun , fun. the color allows you to jazz up any outfit. I had originally paired these with a navy blue dress but also ended up wearing them with a LBD and just some jeans and a white shirt- they are just fun. Little larger than i expected, but with my hair down or half up, they gave me just the color and pop i was looking for.

little shorter on the chain length than expected, so the top row bunched a little. the color ( black and gold) is fantastic. give it a shimmer and almost a deep purple appearance. could be dressy or casual, really a great necklace to have for just about anything.

LBD!
Great dress. Love the detail in the front, the two different fabrics give it a little extra on the front view. The back is amazing! You wouldnt expect it from the front of the dress, but the back has two straps with zippers in the center followed by a low back zip up around the hips. Very open back. The top zipper actually helps act like a built in support, in combination with the fabric, so you can go braless if you feel comfortable.

Sensational Knockout Dress
As described by many others, the corset top is snug. I wore my normal size dress (8) and was able to zip it fine. The straps give the dress a perfect neckline flare....so some great earrings, bracelet and shoes will do. The dress is definitely a raspberry with a lighter pink underlayer ( so less red than the picture appears), but still just as fabulous. Many compliments on style and slimming appearance while wearing. Would love to have in my closet for numerous occasions to come. Must Try!

Great Dress!
Goes easily from the office to any after work event. Fit was perfect. Fabric was soft and comfortable, there is a slight amount of stretch in the skirt. I could see the need for a small amount of fashion tape long the bust line, I did not use any and I did not have any issues. Only issue I had was when I tried the dress on for fit I noticed that the slip had been previously torn in two small places on the inside and was causing the slip to fall out longer than the skirt. I was able to safety pin them up, which then brought the slip up and everything looked great.
