So cute!
Love this dress! I was worried it would be too short but it wasn't. Really comfortable too. Would have bought but couldn't justify the cost.

Top part too tight
Fit perfectly through the legs but the top was tight. This was problematic bc they're high waisted.

Cute but not flattering
It was comfortable and a cute fabric but I wish it had been a bit more form fitting

Love!
Absolutely love this jacket. Too low cut to wear as a top, but as a blazer for work it was fantastic.

Super comfortable but very low cut
I got this dress as a last minute replacement from the Chicago RTR store. Overall I really liked this dress; the material was comfortable and it was too clingy. The way the fabric lays on the bodice is interesting as well. The only thing I'll say is to make sure you have some fashion tape available if you want to avoid giving everyone a show. ;)

Awesome!
I've been struggling to find a jumpsuit that I think is flattering on me and this one finally met the mark. It's super comfortable, has pockets, and no zippers to worry about. Amazing. I'm about 5'5" and the regular length was pretty long even with heels so I used hem tape to take it up a few inches, but other than that absolutely amazing. Would have bought for sure if it'd been in my budget.

Amazing dress!
I never in a million years thought I'd be able to wear a backless dress because I'm bigger up top, but to my amazement I was able to get away with wearing this dress without a bra AND feel comfortable in it! I did put a little fashion tape by the cutout because I was paranoid about the girls slipping out of place but I don't think it was really necessary. Love love love this dress!

Better than it looks on the hanger
I rented this from the Chicago store. When the stylist pulled it I was skeptical because it looked kind of boxy on the hanger. I'm also not usually a fan of polka dots but once on, this dress is pretty great. It hugs the curves and the ruffle on the bottom is a fun touch. My one complaint is that the material isn't all that forgiving so if you're self conscious about your mid section you might want to pass on this one.

Great fit and color, awkward sleeve
I got a TON of compliments on this dress and felt stunning wearing it. The only reason I'm not giving it five stars is that the sleeve that's off shoulder makes it a bit restrictive. Dancing and even eating was a little awkward, but not so much so that I wouldn't rent it again.

Unique silhouette
This dress does really look like the photos in person, I just didn't really like where the top of the skirt landed on me.

Flattering but very low cut
This dress is really pretty - there are actually three colors, not just two like it looks in the picture (there's a dark navy under the black). My only complaint is that it's very low cut which I don't usually mind, but in this case as I walked throughout the night the neckline also shifted so I felt like I was adjusting it all the time.

Beautiful and comfortable
This dress was great - the material is light and it fits true to size.

Comfortable but be careful if busty
I wore this dress for a derby themed fundraiser. It was incredibly comfortable and best of all I didn't have to wear spanx with it! My one complaint was that the snap at the bust kept coming undone. I ended up wearing a cami underneath so I wouldn't end up flashing anyone; it still looked cute but not what I was expecting in that regard.

Beautiful and comfy!
I wore this to my niece's first communion and it was perfect. Super comfortable and great for anything summer. I did have to wear a strapless bra because the back was lower than I expected it to be. Would definitely rent again and would love to buy!

Pretty dress but tight
I loved the color and style of this dress (sorry I didn't get a better picture) but it ran very small especially in the bust area. Had to wear a strapless bra because of the neckline.

Great dress, but very tight
I absolutely loved the shape of this dress - the way it flares out just slightly at the bottom is amazing. I also loved that I could wear a normal bra with it. But if you're a bit larger on top, make sure you're comfortable with people staring at your boobs because they WILL be out and proud.

Great dress for a smaller girl
Objectively speaking, I love this dress. The style is beautiful and the color is more purple than pink. The lace is also beautiful. That being said, I typically wear a size 10 or 12 and even the 12 was very tight on me. I was able to make it work, but didn't feel as attractive in it as I'd hoped I would. I think for girls that are smaller this would be a phenomenal fit. I'd definitely rent again once I've dropped a few sizes!

Love it!
This dress is absolutely one of my favorite rentals from RTR. Super flattering and made me feel amazing. The only thing I'll mention is that it does run small - I usually waffle between wearing a medium or large and there's no way I would have fit in the medium. So definitely size up. Great dress - will be looking at others from this designer!

Incredible comfortable!
This dress was incredibly comfortable. LOVED the neckline (does mean wearing a strapless bra, but worth it). The material is a little heavier than I expected but not to the point of being too warm. The only thing I would have changed was to make it a little shorter, but that's just my style. Great rental.

Beautiful!
I hadn't planned on renting any jewelry to go with the dress I got for a derby themed fundraiser, but I went into the RTR store with a friend and found these gems. So beautiful! The only thing to know is that they are pretty heavy, so if you don't like heavy earrings these wouldn't be for you.

Incredibly comfortable dress!
Loved this! It was super comfortable, I could wear a regular bra with it, AND it has pockets! The color was a little orange-ish in person which I still loved, just wasn't what I'd expected. Great rental.

Beautiful dress
This was a beautiful dress; my only complaint was that the zipper bunched up in the dress and was a little uncomfortable while sitting as a result of that. Other than that, a great rental! I wore a nude bra with it and you couldn't see the straps at all.

Great statement earrings
Wore these with a dress I rented on my birthday. The earrings are heavier than ones I usually wear but given how large they are, I didn't think they were excessively heavy. They were a great statement piece to go with the dress.

Great birthday dress!
I wore this for my 31st birthday celebration (dinner and a show in Vegas) and it was great! I only received the medium since the large was returned late or damaged by the previous person; I probably would have gone with the large if it'd been an option but was able to make the medium work. It was a little tight for my preference but still looked great. Fantastic dress!

Loved every part of it except the zipper
I was really excited about wearing this dress for a friend's wedding and for the most part it met my expectations. The biggest problem was that the size 8 fit much better overall, but because it was more fitted the zipper got REALLY bunched up in the back. The 10 wasn't nearly as bad zipper-wise but also didn't fit quite as well as I wanted it to. Overall a beautiful (and comfortable) dress though.

Beautiful dress
Loved this dress. Before renting, I thought the top was white but it's actually a light teal color. If I were to change anything, I'd have liked the hemline to be maybe an inch shorter, but that's just me. Great rental!

Sad I didn't get it in time
I didn't actually get to wear this dress for the event I'd reserved it for - this was the backup size and was a little loose (the size I wanted was sent back either late or damaged). RTR was fantastic though and let me go into the Chicago store to pick out a replacement. I'll definitely be renting this style again, however, when the 8 is available. The only "issue" I can foresee is that you wouldn't be able to wear a bra with it and as a busty girl that could be problematic.

Fun dress
This was actually a replacement dress - the one I ordered was either damaged or returned late so I went into the Chicago store for a replacement. The stylist I worked with was very helpful; I never would have pulled this style for myself but ended up liking it more than I thought I would. The silhouette isn't my usual style, but the fit was great. The only complaint I have about it is that the waist was very snug while the rest of the dress fit perfectly. Overall a good rental if you like this type of silhouette, just wasn't really my favorite style personally.

Incredibly flattering dress!
I rented this dress for an "adult prom" event that a friend of mine hosted. I got so many compliments on it and it made me feel beautiful! My one complaint is what others have already said in other reviews - it runs incredibly small. I got a size 10 when I normally wear an 8, and even that took both my roommate and myself to zip up. That being said, even though it was almost uncomfortably tight, I was able to make it work and it didn't LOOK like it was too right. Would absolutely rent again, just in a larger size.
