26wks pregnant
Very pretty dress, could’ve worn. Just felt too tight even when I sized up pregnant. Could size up twice, especially for those with larger bust.

26wks Pregnant
Worn 26wks pregnant (with my fourth kid, so many be larger than others at this stage). It does run LONG. Do not wear flats unless you are tall. Also better suited for those who are small busted, it was very tight up top by the end of the night. Otherwise great color & movement.

Comfy eveningwear
Wow this was so fun & comfortable!! A great option for cooler months, but could work in summer too. The cut outs were small enough, so it would be okay for adults - not just teenagers/young adults. Tape might be helpful for up top- depending on bust size.

Fun neckline
Such a fun dress to wear & lightweight. Would not overheat for a summer wedding, but long enough for spring/fall option. Fun to dance with on the dance floor - loved the skirt pleating. It did take two people to zip over the waist line, just a poor zipper (or others had previously stretched it out). I did wear it while breastfeeding, so after four hours it did get tight on my neck. Would be a good option to keep in my closet- given the color, and uniqueness. Would rent again

Ruffle Formal
A beautiful option that would flatter many body types- I just adore all of the ruffles. So pretty on so many body types & hides any armpit rolls from spaghetti straps. Ultimately did not end up wearing because another dress looked better color wise. Would definitely rent again.

Hip Hugger
Beautiful dress. Ultimately decided not to wear as it was just too chilly. It also tightly hugged my hips. However I am breastfeeding & so it fit tighter on the top. Size up if you’re curvy, breastfeeding or large chested. Still would love to try to rent again

Not for Nursing
I am 4mons pp & bought to wear to a wedding. Unfortunately, the bust area was too small for me. The sides were digging in- and i figured id be miserable by the end of the night. Might be a better option for smaller chests so the sweetheart neckline lays flat. So pretty; great colors. Bummed it didn’t work.

HighLow Dress
Such a pretty print, material & dress! Love the detailed ruffle on the skirt & bow ties on the straps. Wore 3month postpartum - really too small on the bust size (would order size up!) Would love to see this dress in a wrap form - or definitely beautiful for someone with a smaller bust.

Snaps in front!
Unfortunately too small to wear postpartum. The dress is a wrap- but it snaps in front too! Thus for someone with larger chest would need to order UP to ensure it snaps in the front. Really wish it did work out- but not ideal at this stage (large bust). Hope to try again

Pretty skirt & lightweight - ordered L & XL. Large was tighter - but XL may have been too long (note: I am postpartum). Does seem to sit higher on waist. Maybe not ideal for someone postpartum - did not end up wearing

Flirty & fun
Great dress. The slip & thick straps & silhouette make it stand out among typical knee length dresses. I especially appreciated the thick straps, since you don't see it that often. Definitely true to size but may need to size up if large chested. Dress designed for smaller chests. Would rent again or love to have in my closet!

Breezy & fun
Such a fun dress to wear. The material was very thin, and has spaghetti straps - so works well for a hot day. A pashmina scarf is necessary for a chillier day. Loved the ruffles- would love a dress like this in my closet. Best suited for small chests

Edgy & flattering
Incredible incredible dress!!! I was concerned it would only look good on a young 20 something (too tight), or the straps might dig in - but it fit and looked amazing! It was also comfortable to my surprise! I would definitely & hopefully wear again! I even got a compliments from guys- the chain straps made it unique and stand out! So happy I ended up with a this option as a placement after my original did not ship. Dont be shy - click ADD TO BAG ;)

I did not end up wearing, as it seemed to fall a bit short. I opted for a different dress with more color - could consider as a reliable back up in the future though!

Wide neckline
Rented for a wedding. Was hopeful the neckline would not be as deep as reviews said. They were right. Currently breastfeeding & definitely the WRONG dress to wear. Beautiful silhouette & design. Would be great if plunge was not so deep. Bummed. Did not wear for the event.

unique hemline
Dress was a great pick for a warm fall wedding - based on color, material and spaghetti straps. I loved the uneven hemline that made the dress stand out. Very comfy to wear as well! Would recommend for those with smaller chest sizes. Not an ideal pick for larger chests- as not ideal for wearing a bras or support in the dress.

pretty blue on pale skin
Wore this to a rehearsal dinner. Ordered a Medium, but would have liked to try on the small. The fabric is thicker, which makes a short dress like this good option for spring/fall as well. love the back zipper detail. It is comfortable and would feel look great on many body shapes.

Great option for a black tie event. Comfortable to wear. Has a large slit - so be sure you wear the correct size. I typically wear a 4/6 but I sized up since I am breastfeeding. Worked well for me!

Love the midi look
Loved this dress. Went down to RTR Chicago to pick it out! The pop of color is great for winter. The slits make it sexy without being trashy. Definitely wear a size up - runs tight. I usually wear a 4-6 and I picked an 8 in this one. So glad I did!

Pregnancy Dress
Really great rental for being 39wks pregnant! Only down side is the dress was very long - I definitely worse flats considering my status. Would have been a better fit for heels. I did have to pick up the dress when using the stairs. Super comfortable & able to wear a variety of ways!

Tight zip
Tried this on at RTR store and loved it. Knew I needed to order a size bigger, but ultimately really needed 2 sizes bigger! Fits great but wouldnt zip up the back. Might be a better dress for smaller chested women . I normally would wear a small but it wouldnt even zip up. Medium did fit though. Really pretty dress- but I think the construction is off. Top half will fit but the bottom might look a little loose. Would consider renting again, but in a medium. Order bigger than you think you need!

Christmas Red for Winter Wedding
Really beautiful color in person and photos. I thought it was the perfect color for a December wedding! This order was a replacement- i normally would order a small. However i only had the option to wear the medium. A little bit loose and long, but ultimately fit fine. Still would order a small next time. Really comfortable too.

Little stretch
Beautiful dress, however it had little stretch in part due to the lace, which was expected. The waist seam made it feel tight. The straps were more string like, thus it kind of dug into my shoulders. The bust area was small, and i would not recommend for large chested women. Overall not the most comfortable.

Wore this for a graduation during the day and to a wedding that night (no time to change!) Worked perfectly for both events! Definitely runs small. I was truly a size 6, but it was not available to rent. Thus I wore the size 8. Would be a great staple to have in your closet.

Fit well. Soft fabric & comfortable. I could see this style running large on top. Can wear a strapless bra, and barely noticeable in the back. Would recommend a nude or clear bra though. Great pick for a party

Can I keep it?
I am soooooo in love with this dress. It is unlike any other gown I have worn withe the fabulous sleeves. I love the off the shoulder look as well. Definitely runs small. I could not wear a bra with the size I purchased, would order a 6 next time. I will be keeping an eye on this dress to see if the price drops! Hopefully I can own this someday!

Lady in red
I received this piece as a replacement after my initial order never arrived. It was such a fun piece! And the majority of my compliments were from men. If i were to order again id definitely get a 2. The top was very loose and I needed to safety pin it together in the front. There was also more fabric in the larger size, so it rubbed against my armpits. Overall a good option when you have the right size!

Wow
I could not have been more happy with my outfit! I volunteered for a black tie event fundraiser in downtown Chicago. I felt it was formal enough for the event, but comfortable enough to run around and help with various things. Of course it had pockets- which is so nice to be able to store your lipstick and phone on you! The top is slightly itchy, but completely manageable. You might want to go a size up if you have a large chest. I would gladly rent again. And possibly even consider buying!
