Comfortable for every day wear
The fabric has a nice weight and drape. It wasn’t super special, but I grabbed it as a backup dress and enjoyed wearing it on a casual Sunday.

Perfect for a warm night out
I wore this to an outdoor concert on a warm night, and it was just perfect. I’m usually a size 14, and the XL fit great. I usually can’t go without a bra, but this dress laid just right that I was able to pull it off. The fabric is very thin and light without any stretch, and was the perfect blend between casual, comfortable, and sexy. Take a chance on this one!

Thin and short
Very thin, very short. I'm 5'7, 34DD, size 8/10. This is basically a long shirt on me. Beautiful print, and it would work with leggings in warmer weather.
Casimir Dot Dress

Size Worn: NONE
Usual Size: 8

Straps are very long
I couldn't wear this because the shoulder straps are way too long. I don't usually have that problem because I'm tall and curvy on top, so beware. A size down may have helped, but I'm not convinced that it would have worked.

Not for busty girls
The V neckline hung completely open. This is not for busty girls. This might lay right on someone less curvy on top, but even then, you'd probably need to pin or tape it so it's not gaping open.

Perfection! Size up for larger busts.
I loved this dress so much, and I got compliments every time I wore it. It's sweet, feminine, flowy, and comfortable, but still professional for daily work wear. I'd wear it every day if I could! Also, a note for busty girls like me - I usually can't wear button up tops because of my larger chest size - 34DD. This dress was a dream because the back is ruched with elastic, so it stretches to create room for a larger chest while the waist still hugs your body and maintains your shape. I did have to safety pin the middle button so that it wouldn't accidentally pop open in front of one of my clients, but that was no big deal. For sizing, I'm usually a mid-to-large 8 or a small 10. I went with the 10R in this, and it was perfect.

Not for tall girls or larger chests
This top is beautiful... on the bottom half. I'm 5'7 and 34DD. The top ruched part that sits on your chest was not at all long enough for me. It made my chest look squashed and flat... it was very unflattering. This probably looks great on someone more petite with a smaller chest!

Scratchy crop top :(
This was terrible.... the fabric is scratchy and it fits like a crop top. This might work for you if you are very petite. On me, the fit was laughably unflattering.

Great coat!
This coat was fun to wear! It's a great color and has a bit of fun flair with the fringe. I'm 7 months pregnant in this photo, so I loved that it was sort of blanket-like and comfortable!

Gorgeous versatile dress!
I wish I could buy this dress! I wore it 7 months pregnant, so it's bump friendly! I will probably also rent it again in the future. The design is so fun and beautiful, and it was easy to dress up or down.

Gorgeous and unique!
Wow, these earrings are so pretty! They have the perfect amount of sparkle and yet aren't too over the top. I wish I could have kept them! I can't wait to rent them again (and maybe again)!

Beautiful color and fabric
I rented this for my birthday outing to Huntington Gardens. It wasn't super flattering on my body type, but the color was stunning. It ran a little big, even in the chest. I'm normally between a size 6 and 8, but I'm 4.5 months pregnant, so I sized up and rented an 8 and a 10. I probably could have squeezed into a 6 (although it would've been very tight, but I'm just trying to give you an idea of the sizing). I ended up wearing the 10 since it had extra room in the waist, and my pregnant belly balloons quite a bit after I eat! I probably wouldn't rent this dress again, but I enjoyed wearing it for the day. Thanks, RTR!

More business than party
The fabric on this dress is beautiful. Unfortunately I didn't wear it because something about it seemed more fit for a professional evening event (work dinner, maybe?) than a party night out with the girls. Unfortunately, I didn't wear it.

Perfect!
I wore these earrings on my wedding day, and I loved them. They were a little bit smaller than I had expected, which was good, because I was worried about them being too over-the-top. I would have kept them if I could!

Sparkly and fun!
I received these bangles as my Stylist Surprise. They are really sparkly and fun, and they seemed high quality and durable. Unfortunately, I didn't wear them because they didn't really go with the vibe of the events I was attending the week of my rental. Nonetheless, I thought they were great, and I would recommend them to someone looking for a spunky, eye-catching accessory!

A must-have for a perfect fit!
I used this tape to shorten a floor-length dress. Most dresses are made for very tall people! I'm 5'7 and still needed it. It worked great!

Feminine and a little edgy, versatile, too!
I LOVED this necklace! I wish I could have kept it! I got it as a Stylist Surprise when I rented the Badgley Mischka Party All Night Gown. It was a little bit feminine with the pearls and crystals, but had just enough edge with the gold chain to be an interesting and unique statement piece. I also wore it with an off-white lace cocktail dress of my own, and it looked just as wonderful with that, too.

I love the necklace RTR sent me!
I received the Lee Angel Entwined Pearl and Chain Necklace, and I LOVED it! I wish I didn't have to send it back! It's something that I would have never chosen myself, and even if I did, I would have never thought to wear it with the dress I rented. But I'm so glad RTR sent it to me! It was absolutely perfect, and it really made my outfit something special. I was also able to wear the necklace the night before with my own clothes. The Stylist Surprise is a must-have!

Classic glamour, great fit!
I rented this dress for my engagement photos in Las Vegas. I am 5'7, and I rented the 8L and 10L. The 8L fit better around my waist, but it was a little too small on the top (I have a larger bust), so I wore the 10L. I also wore the dress with flats, which meant that I had to use some hem tape on the front of the dress, because it was too long. If I rented it again, I would go with the regular length. I felt so classic, glamourous, and sexy wearing this dress. I highly recommend it! My fiance also loved it, and I got a lot of compliments from strangers while we were out taking our photos! My overall experience with RTR was fantastic, too. The dress showed up 2 days early, and it was so easy to return the pieces I rented. I will definitely be renting again!
