Twirl worthy
As with many of my other rentals I absolutely want to keep this skirt! The material is quite heavy but not in a bad way, in a way that it's definitely suitable for winter but I'd rent in fall and spring too. I think it runs slightly big but maybe not enough to go down a size. So many compliments and I loved twirling around ridiculously for my elementary students (kids are super honest so if they say they like it, it's legit)

Print is beautiful in person, but why is this polyester?
I received a lot of compliments on this top. The print is really fun and pretty plus it looks very true to the stock photo. However, there is zero stretch because it's 100% polyester and it doesn't feel as high end as most everything else I've worn from RTR. I believe it's true to size but be careful because of no stretch. The two slits at the sides are much more prominent than expected so be careful when tucking this in.

Great basic, runs small
Definitely runs small but I was still able to wear my normal size. Next time I would size up but I do plan on renting again as this is a great basic for work or the weekend

Wanted to keep so badly!!
I am obsessed with this skirt. The fit is on point, the sweater like feel but still so comfortable, the perfect fall skirt. Has an elastic band and the skirt falls nicely but there is a bit of mermaid feeling when wearing as your legs can't go too far apart. I will rent this again soon!
Fair Isle Knit Skirt

Lovely button details
I was looking for a versatile shirt with a bit of flair and that's what I got! Another reviewer mentioned tightness in the waist but for me it was true to size. The fabric was a bit thin and I don't think it's meant to be very stretched out. Buttons are not functional so there's no chance of a weird moment happening with gaping and accidentally showing off your bra.

Extremely small
So bummed about this one, it's fantastic looking in person but there's very little stretch right out of the plastic and I couldn't even zip it. It seems like these pants do stretch with wear but I couldn't even get that far.

Excellent fall skirt
Loved it, this fabric was heavy and rich feeling. I should have ordered a medium but the large worked too because of the elastic. Was about midi length on me. Great staple piece for fall/winter!

Bold color, but too big
I feel like this may be better suited to someone taller than me (I'm 5'5"). The neckline hit me in a weird spot which is why maybe better for someone taller? It kinda suffocated me haha! The fabric is very light and I liked the pattern plus it was very flowy. Very roomy large in my opinion and there is elastic in the waist but it didn't do nearly enough to make it look like I even had a waist. Maybe you'll have better luck than me but I couldn't wear it whatsoever.

Really adorable but no give in the fabric
I'm going to size up and see if that helps. I honestly felt like I was going to rip the dress even though it did fit me. I couldn't wear it but the print is so fun and it actually made my legs look long and great teehee :-) Will try again in a larger size!

Perfect for Oktoberfest!!
Worn to Oktoberfest and then to church (without the braids though haha). Probably could have gone with a large but it would have been a bit too form fitting for me on this occasion. Lots of compliments and extremely comfortable. Hugs the curves very nicely. I could see the fabric getting a bit irritating if you wear it for extended periods of time but I'd definitely rent this again.

Gorgeous color and shows off the curves
It ended up being too formal for what I'm looking for but I'd live in this if I could. The back is so pretty and the fabric hugs your body but somehow didn't accentuate my imperfections. Will rent again once I have a formal event to attend.
