Good if you love a high slit
The fit of this dress was very different from the photo. It was very tight around my hips and the slit was very revealing. I ultimately felt too exposed and didn't end up wearing.

Great for the 4th, not comfortable enough to own
Wore these overalls for 4th of July. I didn't realize there is a thin red stripe in the pattern as well, which made them perfect for the occasion. They fit okay - they were a bit tighter than I prefer. I felt like I had to keep pulling them down all day. Sitting was also difficult because they ride up. They were good for the even but not comfortable enough for me to want to wear them again.

Style was perfect for a Cinco de Mayo themed shower
The dress was fine for the event but wasn't the best fitting dress I've ever rented. The top was baggy and I needed to use fashion tape to keep it from being too low cut. The length was also just a tad bit longer than what I would prefer and, as other reviewers have said, the rib cage is very tight - especially after a few tacos and margaritas. I am usually a 4 or 6 in dresses and I wore the 4.

One of my favorite rentals ever
I have been renting from RTR for 10 years and this was one of my favorite dresses. It's lightweight so it worked great for a Florida wedding. The straps did fall down every once in awhile but it didn't bother me. It was also very long, so I had to break out my 4 in. wedges so that it wouldn't drag. Those were minor details though for how great I felt in it. Super flattering and unique. I'm curvy on the bottom and can go between a 4 and 6 and went with the 4. Didn't need to wear a bra. Can't recommend it enough.

Perfect addition to my dress
Not too heavy, not too big. Since I have dark hair they didn't stand out too much, which is what I wanted.

Wanted to love it, but something was off
I rented the 6 and the 8 for a formal Christmas wedding. The 6 fit, but was tight around my hips and too short with the shoes I wanted to wear (I'm 5'5 and the shoes are 3 in). The 8 felt better around my hips but was too big in the chest. Overall, it just wasn't as flattering as I hoped it would be. Definitely a mermaid style. I wish the illusion neckline was more illusion. You couldn't really tell unless you were looking closely. I was also worried about the sequins scratching my arms the whole night. I added a belt at one point and that seemed to help, but I decided to go with my backup.

Great material, flattering style
Great dress. I was comfortable the entire night. As other reviewers have said, the material is thick and stretchy, making it a great option for bottom heavy girls like me. Color felt more blue than green to me, but still felt appropriate for a Christmas wedding.

Wanted to love it but didn't wear
I rented this dress for a Christmas wedding but decided to go with my backup. I'm usually between a 6 and 8 and a 34D so I went with the M, but it still felt large. The dress is very heavy so if there is any space at all on top it will feel like it's falling down the entire time. I knew I would be pulling on it all night. The length is also a little awkward. I'm 5'5" and it was pretty much at my ankles.

A few safety pins changed everything!
I have had my eye on this dress for awhile and finally decided to give it a try for a summer beach wedding. I followed the advice of other reviewers and sized down to a 2 (usually I'm a 6). It was still huge. I used one safety pin to pull up the front so that it looked more like a halter and then two more on the slit and it was like a new dress. You couldn't see the pins at all with all the ruffles and I was totally comfortable all night. There's no way I would have been able to wear it otherwise.. the slit is insane and it's super low cut. If you're willing to put some work in, this dress is killer!

Perfection!
Everything about this dress, from the color, fit, length and comfort, is absolutely perfect. It's flowy yet flattering. I'm typically a size 6 and the small fit perfectly, so definitely size down. I was also able to pair the dress with a leather jacket on a cool night.

Not what I hoped for
I rented this for a formal work celebration and it just wasn't what I hoped it would be. You can't really tell from the pic, but the crotch hangs super low and the sleeve detail isn't actually flattering at all. The netting along the hem of one of the sleeves was detached and exposed as well. It might've worked in a smaller size, but overall disappointed.

So close, but just a little off.
The top half of the dress is beautiful. Sleeves are gorgeous. My hips are usually a problem area for me, but I usually do well with wrap skirts. Not this time though. I couldn't tell if the dress was too big or too small.. but I could not get the two sides of the skirt to meet and stay in a way that looked normal or was comfortable for me. I ended up wearing it with tights, which helped his the fact that my entire inner thigh was exposed at any given point. I made it work for what I needed it for, but I definitely would not rent again.

Last minute engagement party top
I needed a top last minute for a celebration with my friends and family after a surprise engagement and this was perfect! Definitely easy to dress up or down. I'm can vary between a small and medium in tops and the small fit great. The flowy style is perfect for leggings and the cinching in the front is an awesome touch. I would definitely rent again.

I wanted them to work so badly!
These pants are amazing and flattering. The picture doesn't do them justice. The can be a 29 or 30 in pants, depending on the brand. The 29 wasn't available. I wanted so badly to make the 30 work, but it was just too large around the waist and too long so that they lost the cropped effect. I will definitely be trying again in a smaller size!

Everything I hoped it would be
I've had my eye on this jacket for awhile, and finally got the courage to try it for an upcoming trip to Nashville. It's just as the other reviewers described it. Nice, heavy material. Oversized, but I like it that way. Great detail. I'm so excited about it that I had to snap a pic as soon as I took it out of the bag! Can't wait to style it! I'll be holding on to this piece for awhile!

One of my all time favorites
It was very difficult for me to give this one back. Warm and stylish.. this poncho was my go to this winter in Chicago. I liked the oversized look/feeling of it, so the M/L was perfect for me.

So versatile!
I wore these pants a ton while I had them as part of my unlimited subscription. They paired great with a sweater and booties for work or a crop top and pumps for a bachelorette party. I got a ton of compliments in both places! Super flattering. I actually probably could have sized down to the 6, but they were still awesome.

Wasn't able to wear it
I am usually a small in tops, but not in this one. the small was way too tight across my chest so that the shirt did not have the cool drapy effect that it was supposed to. I might try it again in a larger size.

So cute
Wore this for a date night with my boyfriend in Vegas. It's definitely short but the ruffled bottom makes you feel covered. Love the illusion lace on the front and especially the back. Paired it with a leather jacket and my boyfriend loved it.

Great style, became uncomfortable as the night went on
I rented this for a Vegas bachelorette party. When I first tried it on, I felt like a million bucks. But as the night went on, there were several times that I thought I was going to fall out of it and it made it very uncomfortable. I tried using fashion tape, but had to reapply every time I went to the bathroom which was not ideal. I am a true 8 but had a ton of room so I think the 6 would've held me in a bit better and made it easier to move around.

Flattering fun top
I wore this top on a night out for my boyfriend's birthday. Overall, it was a great top, but there were definitely some weird gapping issues that exposed my entire strapless bra. I almost wore it backwards, but decided to wear a lacy bandeau instead so it wasn't as weird if people saw it. No one seemed to notice though and I got a bunch of compliments!

Cute style but straps are too long!
I'm usually a size 8 in pants in ordered the L based on other reviews. The fabric definitely does not give so I was glad that I did, but the straps were just way too long (as other reviewers noted). I probably could have found a way to pin them, but decided that the jumpsuit in general was too risky to wear to a wedding event because of how white it is.

Great color
Decided to go with this dress after the original one I ordered was unavailable. As the other reviews advised, I sized up from my normal 6 to an 8 and it fit perfectly. Didn't have to wear a bra but did feel more comfortable with spans on because of the light color. My only complaint is that the dress twisted when I moved/danced and I felt like I was adjusting a lot to keep the middle seam straight.

Definitely runs small
I rented this dress to chaperone my students' prom because I wanted something a bit more modest but still fun. Pros: the color was great. Cons: it runs VERY small. I'm usually a 4 or 6 in dresses and I could barely get the 8 on. No stretch at all. I could've worn it but I would've been uncomfortable the whole night. It also looked much more matronly on me than I wanted.

Amazing color and style
As all the other reviewers have said, the fit, back, color, and overall style of the dress are amazing. I was worried about the length, but it really wasn't an issue and wasn't as long as it looks in the picture. My only complaint is the slip - the plastic mesh at the bottom is very uncomfortable to sit on (but not enough that I wouldn't rent it again!)

Simple and perfect
This is not the first time I have rented a Theia dress and it won't be the last. The design is simple and classic with a little bit of sex appeal with the sheer back. It is very form fitting through the hips but the thick, stretchy material was very flattering. I got the 4 and 6 and wore the 4.. the 6 was a little big in the bust and this is probably one of the only dresses where the tighter fit was more flattering because of the material.

Too big to wear :(
High quality, thick material, cute twist on the peplum style. I usually wear a S in tops, but the S just kinda hung on me and created an awkward gap in the sleeve hole. Would have been perfect if it was more form fitting - maybe the XS would have worked.

Gorgeous dress!
This was one of my favorite dresses I've ever worn. The quality of the material definitely reflects the price. It is the perfect amount of sexy while still being classy. There is built in support in the top under the lace so I was totally fine without a bra. I'm 5'5 and the 6 hit me below the knee. The skirt also has a lot of stretch, which was perfect for my wide hips. I vary between a 4 and a 6 and probably could have worn the 4 but only the 6 was available. My date loved it - I would definitely rent again.

Received compliments all night!
I range between a 4 and a 6. Only the 6 was available but I've been dying to rent this dress so I took my chances. The back allows you to make the dress as tight as you need it, but there was definitely a gap at the waistband. It wasn't really noticeable though and I just loved the dress so much I didn't mind. I wore 4 in. wedges and the length was perfect - the back would have been dragging otherwise. The material is thick enough that I didn't need a bra. I would definitely rent this dress again in a smaller size.

Pop of color in a sea of black
I needed a semi-casual dress for a charity event where most people were coming straight from work and this was perfect. Very easy to dress up or down. The drop waist made me feel like it was shorter than it actually was, but once I got used to it, it was fine. I can fluctuate between a 4 and a 6 and the 6 fit perfectly.. The 4 was too tight in the arms.

I am a huge romper fan and this one was no different. Really flattering, loved the pockets. I ordered by back up size one size up based on the other reviews and could have worn either one but felt like the 6 (which was a little tighter and shorter) worked for a bachelorette party. Just make sure you have a wing woman to help you undress every time you need to go to the bathroom.

Great color and style for any body type
I rented this dress for a bachelorette party in Austin. I wanted something cute that i could still wear cowboy boots with. This dress definitely fit the bill. I usually vary between a 4 and a 6 and only the 4 was available. It fit fine but was a little tighter and shorter than I expected and would have liked to see how the 6 fit. There was also a weird gap around the arms that I couldn't tell if it would be better or worse if the dress wasn't as tight. I probably wouldn't rent this again, but it worked for this occasion.

I fluctuate between a 4 and 6 and the 4 fit perfectly. The baggy top wasn't the most flattering for someone who is more petite on top and curvy on the bottom, but it was perfect for the 1920s themed NYE party I attended.
