Super clingy
My friend and husband were kind in telling me “I had lots of other things that were more flattering”. Loved the color but it was really form fitting.

Comfy but weird fitting on top
This is a cute stretchy dress that doesn’t cling but also the top has these underwire bra-like things that were too small to go under my boobs so they just weirdly sat on top. Wore a strapless bra for support since the dress didn’t offer any. Straps fell down 100 times. But versatile and comfortable otherwise. No pockets.

Not as cute on
My boobs were absolutely smooshed and flattened in this one but I wore it anyway. Don’t know why the top is cut so small and so low. Love the pockets and lightweight fabric. Just felt tightly contained and exposed though I don’t think you can tell in the photo.

Cute dress with a few issues
It’s a swingy summer dress with great pockets but I had two issues with it: the breast part was a strange fit and no matter how I adjusted the straps the front never fit right. The gathering at the waist added the appearance of size to my waist when it could have been more flattering. Otherwise, it worked.

Too exposed in the boobs
I loved the idea, cut and fabric of this dress but NOT the peek-a-boob issue. The tie front and front cut out made it impossible to wear a bra and the placement of the tie exposed almost my entire boobs. Couldn't wear this one out without a jacket covering the entire top. Even with fashion tape. Bummed.

So fantastic - people are still talking about this one
I wore it to my karaoke birthday party in which I instructed everyone to come "stage ready" and this literally brought the party. EVERYONE loved it. People urged me to buy it. Such a fun outfit. YOLO. Do this rental. It will be a story told at your memorial, I promise.

Great fit, flowy dress, super fun
I wore this as a party host for a reunion at my house. At first I was a little aware of the amount of cleavage it showed but then I just went with it. Flattering dress, versatile, just wish it had pockets.

Fun blazer that I'd never buy but as a rental, why not?
Elevated my school pick up/work from home jeans and tee. Felt like a 80s boss with those shoulder pads. Comfortable and worked as a warm-ish jacket.

I wore this dress to a Christmas dinner party and it was gorgeous and comfortable. It's versatile and could be dressed up or down. Any time of year. LOVED it. (not sure why my photo isn't loading)

Well this was tricky
I normally wear a 12 but because this was all elastic it was too drapey. I couldn’t wear it. The fabric gathered over my tummy made it look like I had a bulge and the peek-a-boo in back made me feel so exposed. I tried a strapless bra but felt like I was showing that too. It was too much and too big on me but a pretty dress for someone with the confidence to pull it off.

I couldn’t wear it because it was clearly the wrong size. Also I was expecting a midi-length dress but this was almost floor length

flattering dress for thanksgiving
I wore this to a Thanksgiving dinner. It is a stretchy velvet and quite comfortable. I didn't love the peek-a-boo cut out in the center of the chest and tried to safety pin it closed but that was hard as the fabric is thick there. Don't need to rent it again but it did the job.

This is why I RTR. I would never buy this but I loved wearing it to two parties and sending it back. So cute. Tons of compliments. Loved the pockets. The pants are VERY long. I needed platform shoes to make them the right height.

too big in the boobs
I have a chest and couldn't figure out how to keep my boobs private with this cut - plus is was too big. Maybe fashion tape would have worked? I would have needed to tape the entire top area. Also the material is scratchy. Maybe I needed to size down? That might have solved it.

so frumpy
This dress made me look 40 pounds heavier - there was little shape, too much fabric gathered in front, just... a lot all around. Couldn't wear it. My husband took one look and said "it looks comfortable. Maybe you'll enjoy it around the house?" The end.

I wasn't expecting it to be so short. Didn't hit my waist. Bummer because I loved the fabric and color.

THE MOST PERFECT DRESS
I literally got a membership to RTR to rent this dress and it didn't disappoint. I had a formal "old hollywood" theme for an event and this was a show-stopper. I got a million complements. It is so flattering, comfortable, easy go get into, and (best part) long enough for me to wear comfortable flats underneath. Stunner.

Lightweight and pretty
Great everyday dress - a little loose around the neckline - bra straps peeked out - but fixable and really comfortable. Mine might have been a little too big - ended up wearing it twice anyway.

Feminine and pretty. For us big-busters, I had to put 3 safety pins to hold the chest area because it pulled.

This dress fits amazingly
Very form fitting and flattering. I wore it to a religious service. It's a bummer you can't comfortably lift your arms (makes for zipping it a challenge) but otherwise - it's perfect.

Yikes. This one is tricky
I thought this would be a cute jumpsuit, but it fit in ways that I can’t even describe that were 10 shades of awful and awkward. They can’t all be winners. Going back.

Needs amazing shape wear
I love the idea of this dress - and wish it looked more flattering on my body but it showed every bump and just didn't highlight the curves the way I wanted them to. Was comfortable. I sized up (normally a 12 but the 14 fit better) but didn't wear it in the end. just didn't need everyone seeing THAT much detail in my shape.

so pretty and comfy
This dress was so pretty and comfortable with a cotton lining. Only wish it had pockets and that the straps were a little tighter - they kept falling down. Had to wear a strapless bra but it was worth it. Contemplated buying this. So many complements. I wore with with a RTR white blazer too.

Loved the sparkle, didn't love the cling
It felt fun and great but I seriously needed better shape wear under it because the mix-and-match undergarments I had on showed bumps and bulges accentuated by the sparkly sequins.
