Super Versatile
I'm in my third trimester and I was able to wear my regular size. It has a nice stretch to it. You can style this dress casual or for a night out. I loved it.

Fun
I'm petite and this fit me on the edge of over sized. I was expecting it though so it was perfect. It made my simple LBD and booties outfit really pop. I was in my third trimester but I still ordered my normal size and it was fine. Fun piece to play with.

Makes a basic outfit pop!
This vest is high quality leather. It's on the longer side and can go with a lot of different looks. It's perfect because it kept me warm on chilly nights and for added warmth it looked great under another jacket or coat. They keep my job work at a low temperature and I didn't feel ridiculous wearing this indoors all day. I kept it almost a month as part of my unlimited membership, and was reluctant to send it back. I definitely would recommend renting this.

So cute and flatteing
These pants are by far my favorite maternity jeans. I prefer wearing mid to high rise jeans regularly and now that I'm pregnant the under the belly fit feel like they can fall and the over the tummy bug me. These are mid rise so they feel extra secure. To top it off they lift the butt cause no muffin top. I love these so much I bought them.

Fun and flowy
This is a maternity friendly design. The silk lays beautifully on the body and it's very flattering. I'm in my second trimester which is a super awkward time since I just look like I have a fat roll not a baby bump and this hid everything perfectly.

Perfect for Autumn
This is a beautiful top, the material is heavy and will keep you warm in mild weather. This is a regular top but it loose and swingy enough that I was able to wear it in my 4th month of pregnancy and I didn't look pregnant

Classy with an edge of sexy
Definitely a statement maker, my husbands eyes popped out when he saw me in this dress. I normally wear a 0 or 2, and the size 6 fit perfectly. It was a little too sexy to attend a family wedding. If I would have worn this dress fashion tape and spanx would have been a must. Also, it's so fitted you can go without a bra.

Perfect for a night out
This dress fits true to size. After wearing it for a few hours it started chaffing my arms, as expected with any sequin. I considered wearing this dress to a wedding and I'm glad I ordered it for the Opera instead. It felt young and is very sparkly and it draws a lot attention, I prefer an understated dress for a wedding. This would be great for a night out, gala, cocktail party or work event.

Elegant and Sexy
This dress is striking in person. The sheen of the fabric makes the navy blue really pop; The fabric has a good weight to it so it falls and flatters your curves and moves nicely. The fit is true to size, I'm short so it was long, I used hem tape and it stayed all night even after dancing. This dress really show cases your collar bones and shoulders, which I love. I felt very elegant in this gown, it was perfect for a black tie wedding.

Feels very young
The material of this dress in gorgeous; the colors are very rich. The fit is forgiving, since it flares at the waist. I did not wear this dress because it felt too young for me. Also, it was very overwhelming on my petite frame. I think it would work well on someone younger or someone taller.

Really Cool Bra Converter
I rented a satin gown with a halter top. Normally most people would wear a strapless bra but I have yet to find a strapless bra that doesnt show through material especially a slinky dress. I need straps, period; so i used this to convert an already halter bra into and more extreme halter bra. I made the straps the longest they would go and placed one of the clear disk as high as possible making sure it was covered by the bow in the back of my dress. I can't stand it when my bra straps show, so this accessory is a wardrobe must.
This stuff WORKS!
I'm 5 feet tall and needless to say, everything must be hemmed. I rented this gorgeous gown last minute for a wedding at the RTR store and I noticed this hem tape. The stylist helping me assured me the tape worked well; the alternative was to wear 6" platform heels. When I got home I tested it out anf it was a strong hold, so I wore 4" heels intead. I used 8 pieces of tape total on a slinky and satin gown and it held ALL night. I packed more tape just in case the tape started to weaken but it was not needed. I love this stuff!!! I wardrobe must.

Elegant, Beautiful with pleats that give it interest
This clutch is a perfect navy blue. The pleats give it a unique look and the material has a beautiful sheen. I was able to fit an iphone with a case, a compact a lipstick, and an i.d. & credit cards.; there isn't much room for anything else.

Clean and simple
This dress was okay. It was the first time trying Hervé Lager, everyone raves about how amazing it hugs the body but it flattened out some of my curves. I wish the bottom zipper could be worn unzipped a bit so that I could take longer strides. The fabric was nice and heavy which kept me warm on a cool night.

Everything about this dress is beautiful
I rented this dress for a weekend getaway. I wasn't quite sure where we would go out to dinner so this dress fit the bill for dressing up or down depending on accessories. The fabric is absolutely beautiful, it flows when you move and feels light on the skin. The cut of this dress accentuates the waist but still allows a little wiggle room to eat a good meal ;). It also looked great with a cropped leather jacket over it when in got cold. Both the 38 and 40 fit but I wore the larger size because the arms are the 38 were snug. I'm 5'0" tall and hit above the knees. This is definitely a nice dress for anyone looking to show of some legs.

This dress was okay
The dress runs a tad small so consider ordering up for a back up. I didn't feel that great in this dress, it hugged every curve nicely but there was something lacking. Also, I feel like the size 2 that I wore was over worn, when I got home there was a hole where the seam was undone. I'm bummed and A little embarrassed and I hope it happened towards the end of the evening or that people didn't notice.

Well made and so Flattering
This dress was very beautiful and flattering. The lace looked similar to the lace of my wedding dress. The black strips of lace are placed perfectly so that it makes you appear slimmer and voluptuous in all the right places. I wore "bring it up" stickies instead of a bra, and the black strip in the center that is see through showed just enough cleavage to make it sexy with class. This dress is perfect for any occasion, the color is gorgeous. I got complements all night.

Bulky
This jacket was so bulky and heavy that it overwhelm my small frame. The arms are very wide, if the arms were slimmer it would be okay but I had a hard time trying to femme this up. It felt like a boyfriend jacket.

Perfect accessory
I don't think I would have chosen this myself, so I'm glad I went with the mystery bling. This clutch was the perfect accessory for the dress I rented.
Perfectly Snug
This is an absolutely gorgeous dress. The color is more of a deep blue green. It's low cut but I pushed my boobs apart to have less cleavage and the dress held them in place. I'm very petite and the length hit just a few inches from my ankles. The slit in the front made it easy to maneuver in the dress and gives it a little extra something. I wore this to a work holiday party and it was perfect for the occasion.

A touch of sparkle.
This clutch went really well with the sequin dress I wore. It sparkles but not in an overwhelming way. I was able to fit my iPhone 6s, lip stick, compact, car keys and a card case with no problem. This clutch is very unique and will give any outfit a touch of glam.

This is such a great program. My never ending shopping habit has subsided because of RTR. I love that I don't have a closet full of one time dresses. I highly recommend it this

So Flattering
I rented this for a presentation I did and it was very comfortable. The material is thick so laid nicely and it kept me warm in the over AC'd room. The neckline was lower than I anticipated but it was still appropriate for a professional function. It will make your waist look tiny! This was the first dress that my husband said "wow, this looks great on you."

Subtle Glamour
I wanted big earrings because I also rented a dress with shear material at the shoulders and didn't want to feel too bare. The metal is a deeper shade of gold ( brass tone) and the sparkle in the stones are just enough to get noticed without feeling like a disco ball/crystal chandelier. Very elegant! They are clip ons and they're not heavy for the size but as soon as I left the wedding (5hrs later) I got in my car and I had to take them off. I had no problem with the earrings slipping off and I would rent these again if the occasion called for it. Absolutely gorgeous

Elegant and striking.
This dress is very lovely, the embroidery on the tulle is gorgeous. I'm 5'0" and it fit more like a tea length dress. It's true to size, I usually wear a 0 and the 0 fit perfectly. The color is deeper in person, I bought a true red suede pump to match but when I received the dress, true red shoes clashed. Burgundy or Wine shoes would have matched better. So I had to wear nude-ish shoes instead. I wore this to a wedding and it was about 80 degrees during the ceremony and cocktail hour and the material made me a little hot, and I felt a big gross. So, if you plan on being outdoors in hot weather, rethink this dress. But if it's 75 and bellow, this dress is absolutely classy and and fun.
