It was weather appropriate and comfortable. A good length for work
I normally wear a 10. I should have ordered a medium instead.

Elegant
Rented for an afternoon/evening wedding. Loved the details on the back. Classy and elegant feel. Definitely needed some Spanx to smooth out some problem areas. Perfect dress for a black tie or formal event.

Classy and Sexy
Rented it for a fall evening wedding. Great style, perfect combination of classy and sexy. Comfortable fit. Love the lace panels in the front and back-. Probably could have worn a 8 but the 10 made it comfortable to dance all night. Definitely need a deep cut, no back bra for the rental (which I'm glad I had at home). Would definitely rent it again or purchase

Not made for petites
I rented this for a wedding and wasn't sure about the pattern. The pattern and style were actually great, much prettier in person than on the website. But the fit wasn't great for this 5'3 frame at all. It was made for a taller person or a longer torso. It's also a better fit for a bustier person. If it was the right fit, it would have been my first choice for the wedding.

The Right Swap!
I rented two other dresses for this May wedding and upon picking them up and trying them on at the store, I realized they were not going to work and didn't fit quite the way I had hoped. So o quickly tried on a few gowns at the store and this one was perfect for the event and was a comfortable fit. The straps were a little too long (I'm 5'3 and not very busty) but a little bits of fashion tape went a long way. The stylist also helped me pair it with a great pair of earrings. Walking into the flagship store to pick up saves me every time!

Wore this for an outdoor wedding in Florida. The color was perfect for the setting.
I would rent it again. Didn't have any problems with the fit

Walked in to the Flatiron store and rented this 2 days before the event!
Rented this for a day to evening wedding. Loved the color and the length. Wish it hid my "don't-want-to-leave-baby-gut" a little more but overall I loved it. It was comfortable to move/dance in and people loved it. Glad I rented this one!

Great fit, gorgeous fabric, great service
I rented another dress that absolutely did not like when I picked it up. So I tried on a few dresses at the store and this fit perfectly! Thanks RTR for a great last minute save! People loved it and most of all, I did. Ironically, the wedding was black and white-themed.

I rented it as a backup dress.
It fit great when I tried it on and would've have been a great option for the wedding, but I decided to wear the first dress I rented.

My first rental from RTR and it was well worth it! It was for a birthday celebration
