Embroidery pushed dress out in unflattering places , namely shoulders and hips. Made me look like a huge cow!

Maternity Dress!
I got several compliments at the grocery store of all places! Stretchy fabric makes it easy to pull off as a maternity dress. Wore in my last trimester. Was a size 4/6 before pregnancy (140#).

21 weeks pregnant for the win!
Great for baby bumps! 21 weeks pregnant and wore my usual pre-pregnancy size (despite cup going from D->F and 25+ of weight gain)! No ties or pressure on stomach, plenty of room for bloating but still looked great! Was very happy with this dress and the designer despite never having heard of it before. Received many compliments and many comments about not even looking pregnant.

Weird fit up top
I have large breasts despite being somewhat petite and even they didn’t fill out the top. Waist was sized appropriately so it was a cut issue. Didn’t wear.

Cosby Sweater Like Woah
Dress has more green in person and instead of looking "mod" it just looks Cosby-chic. So not chic at all. No real stretch in the dress either. I refused to wear it and had no other warm clothes on my trip so I didn't go out.

Good everyday wear
Fairly thin cotton material, not very luxe. The pattern is much prettier in person and up close - it is not brown, it’s rainbow colored but small tiny dots so it makes it look like the colors blended from far away. Just an okay rental.

The perfect everything dress
Dress up with a neutral belt, wear heels or flats. Pretty much anything goes with this beauty. and the silk makes it light enough to wear in the thick summer air. I love it and haven’t returned it in months! Sorry everyone waiting on it, it’s definitely my fault.

Not for big tatas
Sizing the dress up for my boobs made the dress huge on me. The right size flattened my ladies out to chest setting “pancake” and overall made my bust look strange, in both sizes. I really loved this dress on the model but I didn’t find it to be flattering in any way. I tried both sizes. Very disappointed.

This Wardrobe Malfunctions
Had to cut dinner short because the girls were out greeting the waitstaff. Can’t tell if this dress is for true flat chests or what, just be careful if you have a B cup or larger and wear something underneath! Not what I was expecting. Print is nice. Material is okay. But it just would not cooperate.

Camel Toe for Tall Girls - Size up!!! Did not wear.
5'8'' usually between a 4 and 6 but go with 6 for comfort, RTR suggested 6 and WOOF that was not it. Re-renting in M. Couldn't wear, not only was it camel toe city but being so tight on my torso made it really show off my lady pooch (which isn't that serious usually). I have high hopes for the M because the fabric and stretch were nice and I really do like the look of the romper!

And very Kate Middleton! I was very pleased with this once I put it on. Super classy and conservative - and the shoulders are fine idk what everyone else was talking about. Not padded or anything just the buttons which I like.

Love love love!
One of the reasons I use RTR is to get out of my fashion comfort zone. I never wore pastels OR lace, but the classic cut of the dress was very appealing. I’ve rented this 3 times now and I never want to let it go. Gonna have to find this one on Poshmark!

Extremely Flattering and Comfortable!
I couldn't tell from the model but this dress is incredibly flattering and so comfortable! Conservative but figure-complimenting. Another note is that the dress has lilac around the squares that you can't really see from the picture. Material is light like linen or poplin.

Comfortable Statement Dress
The fit on this dress was just right and it was so easy to wear. I like unique looks and this pattern was just that. I stood out in the crowd but not in an unpleasant way. I wore it to dinner at a country club and turned heads without any eyebrows raising. Also wore this dress to a weekend vacation with my in laws. (The cleavage is minimal and can be hidden by wrapping it a little more tightly for us larger busted ladies.) It was a versatile pick and flattering too!

A little too runway
Fit was great, but this felt more like a runway dress than a wear... anywhere... dress. The sleeves were much more pronounced than in the picture. I felt a little silly in it so I didn't wear it. I also didn't really like the cut out on the stomach because it didn't seem to fit with the dress style.
