Summer wedding fun
I was sent this dress when my original dress wasn't available. This dress material is heavier than it looks, so was a bit warm for an August outdoor wedding. The cold shoulder straps got a bit annoying as the night went on, but looked amazing in the pictures.

Back details are everything
This dress was sent to me when my original dress wasn't available. I wore this to an outdoor autumn wedding in Maine, paired with a gorgeous necklace and jewel toned shawl. The fabric was warm enough for the chilly night. Color was gorgeous, fit was great, was able to wear regular underwear with it. Highly recommend!

Pretty but plain
I rented this dress for a friends winter wedding. The color is a bit different and while the dress looks amazing with a great statement necklace, it's otherwise lacking any WOW factor. That being said, it's versatile!

Perfect Rehearsal Dinner Dress
Wore this dress for my rehearsal dinner. It's a little more off-white/blush than true white but otherwise was perfect!

Wore this to our company Christmas party. Fit perfect, a little on the short side though. Tons of compliments, would definitely recommend this dress!

Perfect
I rented this dress for my brothers rehearsal dinner. I had a baby 8 weeks before the wedding, so I rented a 6 and an 8 as I wasn't sure what my size would be (I'm usually a 4/6). The 6 fit best, even with my large breastfeeding bust! Also fit my butt/hips perfectly. My only complaint was that the straps were a little big and kept slipping off. Overall, highly recommend for any event - you can really dress this up or make it more casual for everyday

Not "Bump Friendly"
I rented this dress for my work holiday party - I was 5 months pregnant at the time. The dress is gorgeous, however, between the bust and belly, i felt the dress was not appropriate for a pregnant woman to be wearing. I would definitely be willing to try again now that I'm not pregnant or if I was in my first trimester.

Cute dress but runs small
I rented this dress for my best friends baby shower. I usually wear a size 4 in Lilly, so I wasn't too worried when a 6 wasn't available. The dress is adorable, but there is NO stretch and it is very short - this made sitting uncomfortable. The sleeves are slightly off center, so you can wear a regular bra with the straps worn off to the side or you would wear a strapless. RTR suggests going a size smaller, but I would have liked to try a 6 since there is no give in the fabric. Wouldn't rent again unless I had a back up size, but definitely very cute.

First RtR rental!
I rented this for a wedding this past weekend. The dress runs true to size for the most part, except it was a tad tight under the bust which I was half expecting due to my large bust. The zipper is quite long and took two people to zip it easily. The mystery bling I was sent was the necklace they recommend, but it went really well and made it a little less casual. I got lots of compliments on the dress!

Really adds some wow!
This necklace was sent to me as "mystery bling", which I was a little disappointed about since it was the suggested accessory and I was hoping the stylists would be a little more creative. I was also worried that being the same color as the dress it wouldn't add anything, but I was wrong! It really dressed up my outfit. The necklace was light weight and made very little noise. I'm really happy overall & would definitely recommend it!

I rented this headband for our wedding portraits (taken after our wedding day due to rain). It look very cheap & much different than pictured. I didn't end up wearing it.

Rented this belt for our wedding portraits (it rained on our wedding day). Shockingly, it rained again so I didn't get the chance to wear it but it was gorgeous!
