Beautiful Summer Dress
This dress was beautiful. I will warn though, it does have quite the dip in the front and the tiny little clip to hold it together would not hold for the life of itself. I had to reinforce with a safety pin to feel comfortable. The design of the dress is so pretty though, and a you can't go wrong with a wrap dress. [Also not ideal in windy weather, so another safety pin may be needed to not have a Monroe moment]. While I personally wasn't a huge fan of any full length pictures after the fact, I did feel comfortable in the dress and would definitely rent again, maybe just after losing some weight :) but the dress fits true to size and is a great rental!

Beautiful LBD
There was nothing wrong with this dress, it was simply one of my two backup options when my original order didn't fit. The material is thick and the overall comfort was great. It did seem to puff out a little around the waist area which I didn't find flattering for my body type, but not to say it wouldn't be better on someone more petite or maybe just less self-conscious :)

Beautiful Dress (tight up top)
I wish I could have worn this dress, but I just could not for the life of me get the zipper up the mid area of my back. The rest of the dress fit perfectly, length wise and everything... but if you have a broader back area, the back zipper can be a bit of a pain or not able to zip at all. The material and look of the dress are gorgeous though and would still recommend others to rent it!

SO. MANY. COMPLIMENTS!
This dress was way more than I expected it to be! While it can be a little more "cleavage" showing, the way you wrap and tie the dress can help alleviate it; or even a simple pin. I wore a strapless bra and had no issues all night. The dress was so comfortable, and the fact it is a true wrap dress allowed me to tie it tight and had no issues! The design is even prettier in person and the colors are so vibrant! This was perfect for a marina side wedding. Everyone complimented the dress all night and I wore simple tan wedges and silver earrings; I wish I could've kept this one!

Perfection with pockets!
I absolutely LOVED this dress and never wanted to return it! I wore it for an NHL Face-Off Gala. The material is thick and heavier than you might expect, but it was perfect [and no need to wear a bar or stickies or anything]! The zipper is the only area that caused me a little struggle. For once it wasn't my hips/stomach causing the issue but more so around the under bust area which on my body is wide, otherwise I probably would've fit in the medium. While I was able to maneuver it eventually on my own due to it having a top button to help guide my zipping efforts, a friend would've been helpful... Once zipped though it was good for the entire evening. The pockets were a great find, and these ones allowed me to hold my keys and cell phone without anyone even noticing. The length was perfect on my short frame, and didn't drag at all. This seriously might be my new favorite RTR and I will definitely rent this again.

So.Many.Compliments!
This dress was a super fun rental for my cousins wedding! The adjustable straps are clutch on this dress, as it was nice to be able to adjust so the front was flat against my body and I didn't have to wear a bra. Make sure not to pull too tight to avoid sausage rolls in the back... I ended up pulling my hair up by the end of the night and I think that compliments the neckline more! I will say though, the zipper was a bit tight for me [thankfully my boyfriend was able to finally get it zipped and I didn't have any issues with it] but it was one of those zippers that is tighter around the back/rib cage. The overall shape wasn't as flattering as I had hoped for my body type, but regardless I received so many compliments on the dress! Careful of your skin tone, as mine literally matched the liner perfectly, so I had a lot of double-takes asking me about the dress more! As many reviewers mentioned, the lining on the dress is awkward, and the weird plastic refuses to go flat [but other than knowing it myself, I don't think anyone else could tell]. The dress overall was great and fun. Only small issue was the dress that fit had a small tear in it [which I was able to get away with, and RTR was made aware and apologized profusely]. I would definitely rent this one again!

Perfect Compliment to the Dress
I've never actually gone with the suggested accessories before, but for some reason when these earrings popped up, I went with it. Totally worth the rental as they complimented the dress I rented perfectly! Loved them!

Compliment after compliment all night
This dress was amazing!!! Definitely had longer straps as all previous reviewers have stated but I'm so glad that didn't deter me from renting!! I only used a Bobby pin to pin the straps up closer on the back of my neck (wore my hair down) and it held the entire night! If you're larger in the chest, fashion tape would be suggested... I used some for safety sake but once I had the straps pinned a little tighter I didn't worry anymore. The pockets are perfect without adding any unwanted bulge. Most people didn't even know I had them until I showed them and then I'd get the 'ohhh my goodness that's amazing' response. Being 5'2'' I worried about the length but it was perfect all night... even when I went to flip flops later (I held it up when walking around). But a normal heel was all that was needed and no dragging! I wish I could've kept this dress!!! [the mid area with the zipper can be a little tighter with less stretch, but once zipper comfortable the whole night!]

Perfect for a Outdoor Summer Wedding
This dress fit wonderfully. Although I wasn't personally happy with my appearance the dress itself was perfect for the outdoor wedding. The dress can be worn both off the shoulder or on. Whichever way you want it, it held its place. I was even able to wear a regular bra. I'd avoid any darker or non solid undergarments as the material isn't super thick. But not being super thick made it comfortable to wear when it was 80+ degrees out. The belt was a nice accessory that I felt was necessary for my body type to wear!

A no issue strapless dress!
The dress itself was really comfortable, and the cape on it was actually really pretty! The only thing I didn't quite agree with some of the other reviews was, this is a tighter dress, and if you're trying to hide any curves you don't like, they definitely show in the dress! The dress held up very well though, and I don't think I had to adjust the top once [being strapless] which is a nice change for this style dress! I'm on the shorter side, so it felt a little long on me! But overall it was a nice dress!

Simple, yet classy!
This dress was awesome! So comfortable and movable, which helped with the hours of dancing! I fit into the 4, but the zipper was just driving me crazy, and I didn't have someone home to help, so thankfully the 6 made the zipper doable alone! [It's one of those tiny thin zippers] I don't have much in the chest area, and if the event were in a more lit area you may have noticed my chest not lining up to some of the lining, but I haven't noticed it in any pictures so wasn't a big deal... I also didn't have to wear a bra due to the thickness of the material! Speaking of thickness- no lines show of anything which is nice. It didn't hide my tummy as much as I would have liked, but I felt classy all night! Good stretch to the material as well so driving/sitting I didn't have any issues! I would definitely rent again!

Being surrounded by friends who all catered to my Kate Spade themed party :)
People aren't lying when they are stating that this dress is tight in the upper region. I'm a B cup and normally wear a 4-6 size dress and I needed help zipping it all the way to the top. Once zipped it was fine, but if I was any bustier it most likely wouldn't have fit. I loved the fit besides that though, and the length and shoulder cut were perfect... added some cut heels and I was loving it! Unfortunately I didn't take too many pictures!
