The slinky, 90s girl makeover dress of dreams
Several people told me I was the best dressed person at the event where I wore this dress. I slipped on some Honeylove shape wear and strut my stuff. Will definitely rent again.

Lovely dress for any semi formal occasion
Not an especially amazing dress but perfectly lovely for a nice summer outing. The bottom must be steamed or ironed before wearing.

Versatile, fun basic
I love this white top. I’ve worn to work and church and on vacation. It’s warm too, which is nice for in-between temps and cooler days.

Nice long pant for tall girls
It’s a unique color and fabric. If you’re in between sizes tho, I suggest sizing down.

The floofy sleeves were doing too much
I’d ordered a size too big but decided it would have been a confusing dress on my small chest even at the right size, so—never worn.

Nice top
It's cute, VERY warm, the collar didn't know what it wanted to do on my chest.

Great fit and cute for cloudy days
It's a large, roomy fit, which works for me as I'm in between sizes. Cutest with tights and boots!

Lovely and comfortable.
Just right for my mid-size body. I am a 10/12 and wore a 12. It was comfortable and cute. I am small chested despite the rest of my body’s size, so there was a little space in the boob area, but that can easily be ignored. Will rent again!

Just didn't like them
Inseam too short for my long legs, material weirdly swishy (which I wasn't expecting), wasn't sure where I'd end up wearing them once I put them on.

Should have sized up
I think this might also look better on a slimmer figure -- I looked like a diner waitress.

Too small for me
I have broad shoulders and the top simply wouldn't go over them to get on. Immediate return.

Embroidered Top

Versatile and comfortable
I wore this over wide legged jeans and a tank and immediately fell in love. It was on clearance, so I bought it outright! I can't wait to wear as a cover-up on the beach, a short dress with a belt on a day out, and as a second layer on breezy summer evening. I'm 5'9", 176 lbs, and I've got some bloat. This top makes me feel cute and confident -- and it helps that it's in a trending color!

Beautiful but too small
The 10 was too large and the 8 was too small 😢 The bodice was just not right for my torso shape! It’s undergoing a change as I gain muscle mass in the gym, which might be why. The dress is otherwise a lovely color, a warm fabric for a winter event, and the perfect length for a tall woman like myself. Just beware the torso challenges if you are wide!

Flowy and forgiving
I wore a size 8 even though I’m usually a 10 in dresses. This fit me very nicely and was a great pick for an outdoor party in early fall.

Fit so well, never felt prettier!
I LOVED this dress from Reformation. I wore it to my engagement party. My mom even said, "Girl, I'll help you buy it if they have your size." Alas, they don't! I wore my backup size (10) which fit perfectly. The neckline and bust were so flattering on me. I used fashion tape to close the slit just a bit since I was attending church before the party. I would rent this again and again. Shoutout to the previous reviews that helped me decide on this dress!

didn’t sit right on my body or in my spirit
maybe i should have gotten the medium vs the large, but the overwhelming advice in the reviews was to size up. i didn’t feel very pretty or confident in the dress, so i sent it back.

too small, even at my normal size
i wear 8 or 10 in dresses and even the 10 was sucking the life out of me! i needed my fiancé’s help to zip it up and after he succeeded, i felt the waist lines digging into my torso. the dress is beautiful but i also think it didn’t do my broad shoulders any favors. was going to wear to a wedding but i sent it back!

I love the asymmetrical hem!
It's a wrap dress, so it's very forgiving of varying body types. Easy to walk and dance in, beautiful color, comfortable, dramatic in the wind, and a magnet for compliments! I'd rent again.

Really nice feel, not quite right for me
I wanted to love this dress way more than I did. The ruching detail along the torso kind of exaggerated my midsection. I think it's best for someone with a long, slinky torso! I sent back and didn't wear to my event.

A beautiful dress that can be work for a variety of occasions.
I wore this dress to two events: a formal dinner for work and then to a Halloween wedding. I loved that the dress looked great with a number of different accessories. The length of the dress was really flattering, it fit like a glove, I LOVED the cutout detail in the torso....no complaints here! This was my first RTR experience. I can't wait till I have another opportunity to rent again!
