Got compliments all night long, the envy of the evening.
Perfect fit. Little rough around the arm pit area. Pockets a must! I tried on the dress at the Georgetown store and the zipper was broken, so I had them order it. The one sent also had a busted zipper so my handy husband stitched me in with a needle and thread. I wore a regular bra. I am 5'2'' and the R was perfect length with my heels. I will rent this again because it hit so many points for me - gorgeous fit and cut, rich fabric, length, no need for a fancy bra, classy and glamorous.

Jackie Onassis!
I love this dress so much I am renting again for another black tie event! The dress is gorgeous. Pockets mean I don't even need an evening bag. The back is stunning - wear your hair in an up-do to show it off. I am short, but the regular length was perfect for 3 inch heels. I got so many compliments. The dress is beautifully made and the material is rich and chic, without being uncomfortable. I felt so glamorous for my husband's start up black tie. I wore a stick on bra underneath, which felt a little awkward but in pictures it looks great. You will not be dissappointed if you rent this dress!!!

fun mystery!
This is a gorgeous piece but was ill-chosen by the stylist with the dress I wore. The sleeves were long and tight and so the bling barely showed. Next time I recommend the stylist pick earrings or a fun cocktail ring to add to the mystery bag!

Beautiful but uncomfortable
These statement earrings are beautiful but I won't rent them again. They are uncomfortable.

Bright, flowy stunning dress!
I love this version of the Badgley Mishka gown. The color is vibrant and different. Its quite long (perhaps I should have rented the petite). i did have to hold the hem when I walked. No need for a strapless bra as the bodice is fitted. Its comfortable and excentuated my waist. I felt like a glamor girl!!

This dress is a winner. Its old Hollywood glamour. Skip the strapless bra if you are small busted because the bodice is fitted. Its a bit long so wear higher heels. The gold sequins stop everyone in their tracks! I rented this gown last year before I had lost a bunch of weight. It made me feel so beautiful. Its a gown for any figure!!!!

Beautiful and classy. Unexpected navy.
Great dress for a formal event. The navy lace was rich and expensive. Very well made dress. I didn't have to wear a bra as it was fitted in the bust. I felt sexy and confident in this classy cocktail dress.

Awesome and unique. Great for dancing and very comfy!
This dress was a RTR surprise. It was sent because the alternative size to another dress was unavailable. RTR saved me from not having anything to wear b/c the other two dresses were unwearable (damaged, ill-fitting and smelling of BO). This dress has been one of my most favorite rentals from RTR. I love the material - a soft medium weight scuba. The pattern is fun, modern and unexpected. The cut of the dress is very flattering - cap sleeves, drop waist. The length was perfect. I felt flirty and modest all at the same time. This is a MUST wear for a fall wedding! You can wear a regular bra. I would recommend cute underpinnings if you are dancing because you may give a show when you twirl on the dance floor.

Gorgeous fabric, tailoring and fit.
This day dress (which could also be worn to a daytime wedding or shower) was fabulous! The fit was forgiving and cut in such a way as to flatter in all the good spots. The fabric is so lovely and expensive. The quality of the tailoring was exceptional! I would definitely rent this one again. I wore it to a business function in Las Vegas and I felt professional and posh all at the same time. Kate Spade does not disappoint!! I wore nude patent wedge JCrew heels and it was perfect. Adorable print too. Also note that I wore this last year when I was 50 lbs heavier - its great for curvy girls - I felt BEAUTIFUL!!!!

This cocktail dress is so gorgeous - I received so many compliments on it. I felt like a rock star!
True to size. Very well-made and tailored. I was sent two sizes which I loved b/c it was of course the first time I had tried it on right before the event. I wore sparkly nude platform heels and the combo was perfection! You will not be disappointed with this dress. It works great for a curvy girl too (as I was 50 lbs heavier when I rented this dress last year!)

This gown is a STUNNER and probably the most gorgeous dress I have ever worn!
The fit is true to size. If you are full-figured as I was (just lost a bunch of weight since this event last year!) it is a terrific gown b/c it cinches in and excentuates the positives. Its so GORGEOUS that you won't want to take it off. I wore a regular bra with it, which was a plus. I wore nude sparkly stiletto/platform heels. I also rented some Badgley Mishka earrings that were heavy and sparkly (heavy in a good way). The gown is beautifully made and was a brand new with tags. I was able to order 2 sizes through RTR and that was great, having never tried it on before my event. This gown made me feel like a movie star. its the ONE.
