Was pretty but too short!
I really wish I could have worn this, but I'm not into the ankle length style formal dress. To me, dresses like this should at least touch the floor, but that's my personal preference and to each their own. Made me too self conscious to wear, but I ended up finding an old dress in my closet that was perfect.
Double Strap Gown
LM Collection
Size Worn: NONE
Usual Size: 12
Height: 5' 8"
Weight: 202lbs
Bust: 36G
Felt super elegant!
I loved wearing this! At 3.5 months pregnant, it made me feel super elegant for a summer evening wedding shower, but still showed off my mini-bump in a nice way. Material feels kind of casual and comfortable, but you can dress it up for something more formal. I wore an XLR, but I think I could have worn a Large because there's so much give. The only annoying part was that the plastic hanger strings kept popping out the sleeves below my arm pit. Pretty sure people noticed that haha, but luckily I'm someone who can laugh it off. Just tucked em in my bra in the end. Definitely a strapless bra type of dress. Will rent again!
Coral Empire Maternity Maxi

Usual Size: 12

Bust: 36G
Beautiful but runs large!
As most other reviewers have said, it runs large! Luckily I had done my research before and sized down. I had just had a baby 2 weeks previously, and had put on 50lbs during the pregnancy, but I ordered size 16W as a back up and it was still even a little large! I was a 16-18 before pregnancy. It wasn't super flattering for my still pregnant looking belly either, but in the grand scheme of things, I felt beautiful and received many compliments at my Thanksgiving event. It's a really nicely made dress. The floral fabric is really rich in material and color, and the top is breathable and easy to move in.
Floral High Low Dress
Hutch
Size Worn: 16W
Usual Size: 20
Height: 5' 9"
Weight: 235lbs
Bust: 38G
Very fun and flirty!
It was a little short for my 5'9" frame, but was still very fun to wear! It was comfortable for my 36G bust. Had a little bit of a petticoat underneath. Will definitely rent again!

Bianca Flores Dress

Showstopper!!
Felt stunning in this! Had an emergency appendectomy 3 weeks before, and was unable to exercise for 2-3 weeks, so I was very nervous for the fit. The L was a bit snug, but the back-up XL did the trick! I'm very large busted (36G) and didn't even have to wear a bra. Dress is very heavy and will keep all the bits in, but I wore control top tights anyway. Will definitely keep this number in my back pocket for the future!
Carlene Dress

Size Worn: XL

Quite a bit going on!
It's a great necklace! I'm already pretty big chested though (36G) and there was just a lot going on. Great quality though!

Customer service was great!
This was just a tad snug in the bust for me, granted I'm a 36G! Sadly I couldn't wear it, but it was such a cute look with the matching skirt. Customer service was amazing. When we couldn't find something to replace it, they gave me an RTR credit, which I will definitely use!
Full Bloom Top
Parker
Size Worn: NONE
Usual Size: 12

Customer service was excellent!
This was just a tad snug in the waist for me, granted I had just come out of an emergency appendectomy a week earlier! Sadly I couldn't wear it. Customer service was amazing. When we couldn't find something to replace it, they gave me an RTR credit, which I will definitely use!

Customer service was great!
This fit super tight in the waist. Was a very cute look though with the matching crop top, but sadly I couldn't wear it. Customer service was amazing. When we couldn't find something to replace it, they gave me an RTR credit, which I will definitely use!
Full Bloom Skirt
Parker
Size Worn: NONE
Usual Size: 12

Super easy to wear!
I was concerned about renting this because I am used to wearing more tailored jackets, but this was amazing! I ended up wearing it most of my 4-day rental because I could easily wear it casual with jeans or a pencil dress, or dressy with crop pants+blouse or a fitted dress. Will definitely rent again!

I was devastated that it was to Small...!
It was a PHENOMENAL dress! Amazing quality and thick fabric. I just wish it didn't run small. I am a true size 12, but the size 12 I received was much too small. I'm also bigger chested (34G) and it squashed my boobs down too much. I definitely recommend sizing up as a back up. I was devastated because it doesn't even come in a bigger size for me. Hopefully I'll get down a few more lbs and can try it again in the future because it really was a traffic stopping number!

Beautiful, spunky clutch
Such a fun clutch. It was the perfect size to carry all night. Not a clumsy clutch at all. Would rent again!

I felt like a million bucks!
I wore this for my 10 year High School Reunion and received tons of compliments. I was by far the best dressed! The lace quality was amazing and a beautiful color. The cut was perfection. I am a size 12 normally and it ran true to size, and fit like a glove. I am bigger chested however (34G) and the open back was a little difficult to work around. A little creativity went a long way. I used a Nu Bra type bra and duct tape (you think I'm kidding but I'm not!) and it worked just fine. I recommend the dress for smaller busted women that don't need much lift.
