Easy to wear

Fits true to size, and easy to wear. Only downside is that it's difficult to lift your arms all the way up and buttons/jewelry can get caught on the lace.

Same dress 2 colors?

Word of caution some of these dresses are rose gold and some are gold! Worked for us because one of us wore one and one of us wore the other but since I'm not a pink girl I didn't have the option of sizes like I thought I would!

Itchy but beautiful

Beautiful dress although runs a bit large. I would have worn the 2P but it showed up in rose gold instead of regular gold (?) and that doesn't go with my skin tone. Anyway I made the larger one work with some fashion tape. Only complaint is it is very itchy under the arms- the sequins hurt! Beautiful dress though.

Pretty dress but a bit frumpy

This would work for a very conservative event, but other than that it's a bit frumpy. It also runs large. I didn't end up wearing it but it was my backup size anyway.

Wore this for my law firm's holiday party. If it hadn't been for work I would have worn the smaller

This cuts in on the waist - it's very tight there and the zipper kind of sticks there. Not the most comfortable dress, but it worked!

Love clover canyon!

This is a knockout dress. It fits right but the thick material that clover canyon is known for (kind of like a wet suit) really sucks you in. Lots of colors so many options for accessories and shoes, but you don't need much because this dress steals the show!

Great color and hooray for pockets!

I rented this as my backup dress and I'm glad I did because my "primary dress" didn't work out. The color of this dress is fantastic - a bit of a green hue to the yellow. As others have commented, it also has a nice texture/pattern to the fabric. I would say this dress runs large - I had to wear a padded bra. The one thing I did not like was the back has that kind of bunched/elastic area around the zipper which, in my opinion, makes it look a bit cheap. But, this was a great dress for a summer wedding.

Runs huge!

This dress runs VERY large. The XS was not available so I tried the small, and the front went all the way past my chest halfway to my belly-button! The length is also extremely long and the elastic did not even touch my waist. There was no way I could have made this work. Order down in size!

Absolutely gorgeous showstopper!

I was having a bit of a crisis when none of the three RTR dresses I rented were going to work for a black tie event. Thanks to the superb customer service (as always) RTR overnighted me a few more options they helped me pick out, and this was one of them. Oh my goodness I loved this dress! I got so many compliments and felt absolutely fantastic. I wore the size 2 (the 4 was too large up top) and did not need to wear a bra, which is always a plus. The length was long but not terribly so - I wore 4 inch heels. I felt absolutely fantastic in this dress.

I am a B cup and this was very large in the chest for me. It was also very long, to the point where I would have had to find incredibly high platform shoes to make it work. That said, I think this would be beautiful for anyone a few inches taller than me with a curvier figure. The lace is beautiful! It just didn't work for me.

Worked great under a blazer!

Wore this to a work event, and it paired great under a black blazer. It was a bit long, hitting my knee, so high heels were necessary.

Pockets! Hooray!

I rented this as my backup dress for a wedding and ended up liking it much more than my "first choice." It fits true to size and is very flattering. The pockets are fantastic and didn't billow out despite my having my iPhone and chapstick in there. The only reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is because the boning on the sides was a bit stiff and became a little uncomfortable at the end of the night. However, I would definitely rent this again!

Much longer than it looks on model!

I rented this for a wedding and was disappointed when it arrived because it is tea-length rather than above the knee, as shown on the model in the picture. This length is no good for me. However, the fabric is beautiful and the built in bra is fantastic. I wish this had worked for me but, alas, I went with the other dress in my order!

I am a size B chest and it was alllllmost snug on my chest. I can imagine this wouldn't work for bigger chested women.

Didn't work

I really wanted this to work, but it just didn't. The nubra showed under my armpits because the back is just so open, and the fabric is so thin that there was no way I could get away with not wearing a bra as my nipples were visible. My first rent the runway failure. :-(

This dress was such gorgeous material and a beautiful flow but after reading the reviews and ordering 2 sizes up the top fit perfectly but it was just way too LONG! Even with 4" heels there was no way I could wear this dress without tripping on it and falling on my face. It's hard to tell in the picture but the front panel that hangs down in the center is separate from the rest of the skirt and hangs down a bit longer than the rest. This was the problem for me. So sad I couldn't wear it!

Wore this to a black tie event and it worked out great. The size 4 fit me perfectly but with room to spare in the chest (I didn't wear a bra.) The two thick straps were a bit much for me and I wanted to wear a necklace, so I actually tucked one of the straps into the dress and wore it as a one-shoulder dress. You couldn't tell at all! Very comfortable dress, aside from a few mishaps with people stepping on the small train.

Absolutely LOVE this dress. The material is thick and flattering, and the color is much more vibrant that in this picture. The dress has built in cups which is fantastic (no bra!) and the one shoulder stayed in place all night. I don't have wide hips at all and the dress clung to me perfectly and was very shapely. If you have wide hips, I would recommend ordering a size up.
