Great fit & design!
Beautifully made dress with thoughtful details. Sash is stitched on & there's a small snap perfectly placed on the front so the girls stay covered. This dress is just amazing. It fit me perfectly. The fabric is wonderful as it skims the body & gives a nice hourglass shape. I wore it for Thanksgiving dinner & it was very forgiving. At 5'3" the length was perfect on me with average heels. I would definitely rent this dress again!

A little too "Jersey Shore" for this mama
I had planned to wear this dress while on vacation in Jamaica. I didn't take it because although it fit, I felt like this dress was too young for me. I had originally ordered this dress in a small but it was unavailable. The medium was my back-up. I felt the medium was tight so I can't even imagine how tight the small is. I normally wear a size 2 or 4.

Beautiful color
I wore this dress while on vacation in Jamaica. I normally wear a size 2 or 4 and this fit really well. I loved the ruched bodice--very forgiving. The fabric was light weight and travelled well. Perfect for a tropical vacation.

Great color and fun to wear
I selected this dress when my original dress was unavailable and my order was being shipped. RTR contacted me to select another dress free of charge. I wore this dress twice as I had rented it for 8 days. Once to a benefit auction in my town and again while on vacation in Jamaica. It worked well for both events. For the auction, I wore it with a black velvet blazer and brown boots. In Jamaica, I wore it with gold sandals. As previous reviewers noted, the dress is tight when getting over your hips, but once on, I had no problems. I do wish that it had little loops with snaps to hold bra straps in place.

Beautiful in it's simplicity and extremely versatile.
I rented this necklace for a party. I wore it with a blue Trinia Turk dress, also from RTR. I loved the fit and feel of this necklace. Not as heavy as others and my neck didn't hurt by the end of the night. I also wore it during the day with a white button down shirt and boyfriend jeans. It polished off my outfit! If I owned this necklace, I would wear it with so many different looks people would probably be sick of it. I don't normally wear gold, but this necklace is just beautiful and classic. Love it!

Love the color, the embroidery detail and the style! I received a lot of compliments! Perfect!
RTR only had the size 2 available in this dress. Thankfully it fit perfectly. I'm pear shaped and loved the drawstring waist to help define my curves. The dress fit like a glove yet very forgiving. The color is a wonderful cobalt blue. I liked the one sleeve design, showed off some skin without being too revealing and no tugging at a dress that doesn't stay up. I would definitely rent this one again. I loved it!

Santa Cruz Sun Dress
Trina Turk
Size Worn: 2
Usual Size: 4
Height: 5' 3"

First choice unavailable so this is what the stylist sent. Not made for girls with curves.
My second size for my first choice (Trinia Turk--Santa Cruz) was unavailable so they sent me this one instead. I used RTR to find a dress for a Kentucky Derby Party. This dress did not fit my image of a Derby dress. The material is very heavy and the shape is very boxy. Plus it had shoulder pads (hello 80's)! The lace detail was interesting but I felt this dress would have been better suited for a winter holiday party, not a spring party. I wish the stylist would have looked in my favorites folder for other dresses I had selected for the Kentucky Derby Party. It seemed like this dress was randomly selected because the unavailable one was blue. Thankfully I was able to where my first choice so disaster averted.
