Nice color, cropped fit
Cute color/pattern but didn’t really love as the fit was cropped and boxy. Not the most flattering for me.

Ocean dreams!
Obsessed with this rental! The dress was flowy and fit perfectly - love the tie to accentuate waist and adjust to your own comfort. The print is playful and the fabric is light and comfortable. A favorite!

Wanted to love
Super lightweight and fun print, but too tight in the hips/thigh area for me. Would have sized up (double) if available.

Floral fun
This was a fun and feminine top! The shirt was a little on the long side (I tucked in) and the shoulder area a tad big, but it was a nice piece for a casual look.

Unique but curvy girls beware
I loved the style of these pants and got several compliments! Unfortunately, even sizing up, they were tight throughout the hip/thigh area and loose in the waist - a common issue for me. Only wore for a couple hours each time so it wasn’t terrible, but not the most flexible fit.

Weird fit
I wanted to love these as I have other ribcage jeans. With wider hips/thighs I experienced tightness through the hips/legs and a gaping waist. The overall silhouette wasn’t flattering enough for my short frame to make the uncomfortableness worth it. Also, long inseam!

Cute but short!
The reviews don’t lie, this skirt is short! I sized up (needed) and while the skirt fit, I felt like I was at risk of flashing from behind and didn’t end up wearing. Even if you’re short, I’d be aware of this skirt (particularly if you are curvier on bottom)

Frumpy fit
Never wore bc the fit was just not flattering. Weirdly grumpy. Also hated the neckline - the fabric has no give and it’s super stretched out after getting on/off.

Elevated pajamas
These pants are SO comfortable and are basically fancy pajamas. Negatives - Overall they fit large - I’m typically a 6/8 and was swimming in the medium. Also, they are VERY long - I’m on the shorter end (5’4”) and had to use double sided tape to take up the bottom 3” of each leg. While the fabric is comfy, they wrinkle super easy once you sit down.

Gorgeous!
Wore this skirt to work and loved it! Comfortable, stylish but not so over the top you can’t wear to the office, and it has pockets!

The tiniest waist - size way up!
Ordered for a wedding and loved the cut of the dress (slit is fun!) and the fabric is nice but the waist was waaaay too small. I was shocked as I ordered up (normally a 4 or 6 and ordered an 8) but there was no way the back was going to zip up all the way. Normally have an issue with my hips (pear shaped) but this dress has the smallest and tightest waist. Beautiful piece but size up at least 2 sizes!

Color, color, color! Pictures don't do it justice
Rented this for my friend's summer wedding. She had a Catholic ceremony and I did one of the readings so I wanted to make sure I found a dress that had appropriate coverage, but was still stylish - this one checked all the boxes! I'm normally a 4 but ended up wearing the 2 - I'm relatively smaller up top compared to my lower half so for the cut of this dress, the smaller size worked better. For anyone that is larger in the chest I would suggest going with your usual size.

Standout dress but be prepared to use double-sided tape!
I rented this dress for a Saturday evening wedding that wasn't quite black tie but still needed to be formal. Got tons of compliments all night and felt fabulous wearing it! Couple things worth mentioning - the top of the dress is large, based on my experience and other reviews the dress could stand to have an inch or two less of fabric in the straps. Because of this I absolutely used double-sided tape (tried to go without it but realized I wouldn't enjoy a second of the evening if I was constantly adjusting and checking for coverage). Once I made that fix the dress was perfect! Also, the fabric doesn't have a TON of give due to the thick lace work, which I am always wary of because I have wide hips and larger thighs, but my usual size of a 4 still worked out fine, though if the top of the dress hadn't been so large I probably would have opted for the 6 to have a little extra breathing room.

Matched the fail foliage perfectly & received compliments all night long!
Favorite RTR dress ever! Wore this to a fall wedding and received compliments all night, and my friends couldn't ask where I got the dress fast enough on social media. I was a little nervous the 4 wouldn't fit as I'm curvier on bottom with wide hips and muscular thighs and lacy materials with little stretch are sometimes a problem, but I was happy that it fit perfectly! Like other reviewers mentioned, be aware you will need to either go braless or wear sticky boobs (the gorgeous open back is worth it!). I ended up wearing spanx shorts because the dress's slip doesn't go past the cutouts midthigh, and let's just say bending over without them was more than I was willing to share with the wedding guests! My only real complaint is that the zipper on the back of the dress doesn't have a hook, which wasn't really noticeable but did leave me messing with it throughout the night when I felt the zipper move down slightly. Overall, if you're looking for a standout dress in a unique color, this is it!

This color is a STUNNER and the cutouts are so unique!
Loved this dress and got compliments all night! I wore it to a wedding that was cocktail attire - the length and silhouette of the gown make it seem more dressy than the material and boho style suggest. Paired with the right heels and jewelry and you can really dress it up. Fits pretty snug - I was comfortable in the 4 (my usual size) but the liner did ride up slightly so I had to pay attention as there is a layer of cutouts about mid-thigh. I have larger hips and thighs so if that is your body type, I would be aware of that. The dress doesn't hide much in the midsection, so I was definitely not stuffing myself at dinner if you know what I mean! For length reference, I'm about 5' 4.5" and had on heels that were about 3.5" tall.

Beautiful dress....wrong material
I didn't end up wearing this dress - really wanted to love it but the material was a weird combination of super clingy and heavy -- felt like my curves were being highlighted in all the right ways.
