Tight elastic around ankles
Oh my word. I was excited to wear these pants but was so surprised at how tight the elastic is around the ankles. And I am a petite person with normal ankles. I had to return them immediately.

Birthday party
Very cute pattern but runs small with the undershorts. It would have been too big in the top to size up but wish the shorts had a touch more give in the waist and seat. I am petite but almost felt like I was wearing Spanx underneath the romper.

Surprising choice and loved it
My first time wearing Clover Canyon and loved the fit and fabric! This was a fun choice to wear to a summer wedding.

Fun and playful
Loved this dress for vacation. The side slits added a little glamour. The fabric does wrinkle but very easy to steam out by hanging outside a hot shower...no iron needed.

Beautiful fitted jacket, almost a heavy sweater-like material. Love the detailing.

Look of summer
At first, I worried this dress was too pink (it is very bright!), but everywhere I went, I received endless compliments from women and men, and it fit perfectly. A great choice for work or everyday.

Black & white bold
The skirt is well made and very pretty, but I just had a hard time pairing it with the right top for work. It is silk, so I chose a red silk top, but then felt like maybe I looked too bold with the color combinations. Overall, I just don't think the look was for me personally.

Periwinkle cute
The color is just perfect! This bag was a wee bit smaller than I expected, and yet still, I could actually fit my Surface in it. I believe this was supposed to come with a shoulder strap, but mine was missing. Overall, super cute & in great condition.

Date night
Loved this dress for a date night with my husband. It's surprisingly comfortable! The fabric is a heavy denim, and the trim is woven. I loved the neckline, and the cut-out is modest -- I felt comfortable. I did, however, keep wishing for some pockets!

Flattering with flair
Should I be embarrassed I've already worn this top twice in one week? Nope! I love the fit and flair, particularly when it's paired with fitted pants. It's a heavier denim, longer in the front and shorter in the back.

Flattering, bold print
This is a super flattering dress. I wore it to a brunch and then later in the week to work and received lots of compliments. The print is very bold (more so than it appears in the photos), so I had to be in the right mood to feel like I could pull it off. If this came in solid black, I would buy it in a second.

Easy chic
This is a super-cute romper, easy to dress up a little bit or wear everyday. But it's still a romper, and I found that it's one thing to wear for a couple of hours, but it's just not comfortable to wear all day. The perfect thing to try with RTR.

Confident look
Wore this to work for a series of presentations and felt very confident with this look. As with all of the DVF wrap dresses, I had to use about 3-4 pieces of Hollywood Tape to ensure that confidence, but everything held together well for the right fit! On the way back from my meetings, a stranger complimented me on the dress - always nice to hear.

Casual chic
Dress fits great, and love the little detail of the gold zipper in the back. This is very much a light sweater dress. The pattern is bold -- not something I would want to own, but enjoyed wearing it to work for several presentations. As it was chilly that day, paired with black opaque tights and heels.

Vineyard party
I wore this dress to an alumni party at a vineyard on a warm spring day. I loved the dress -- it fit like a glove around the waist with plenty of room in the hips to sashay around the party. The fabric is beautiful, with a sheerness to the overlay over black, which really added something special and extra dimension. It hit me just above the knee, so not as short as it appears in the model photo. Paired with pale pink heels.

Not what I expected
This dress runs large, especially in the top. I wish I had ordered 1-2 sizes down. The fabric is also a heavy crepe, so not quite what I had expected for a garden party on a warm day. When I ordered, RTR did not have a sizing guide beyond to expect French sizing. Still, the print is beautiful and I may order this again in a different size. Returning unworn.

Flattering fit
This is a great top! I rented it for a party, but I also wore it to work pared with leather jeans and a jacket. Lots of compliments in both settings. The fabric and cut reminds me of wearing a scarf. The color palette is a bit Marimekko / Finnish design to me. Also love how RTR sent mine with tags -- very cool to get something new!

Ready for spring
Seriously loved this coat and the gorgeous color. Perfect for the start of spring. As I'm 5'4 it was a bit longer on me than on the model in the photo, but it's still a shorter coat. The fabric is woven, so I would not recommend wearing it with jewelry that might snag it. Got compliments on the coat everywhere I went.

Awesome and versatile
What a great jacket! Even my husband specifically complimented the cool asymmetrical zipper. Looks great worn open or zipped close for a perfect fit. As others have noted, fabric is a little bit like a light sweater, so I found it easy to dress up or down.

Fantastic dress, very flattering. I needed to use Hollywood Tape on the bust and leg opening though to keep it from revealing too much for the office.

Gorgeous jacket
Wore this to work, a brainstorming session downtown, rooftop cocktails with colleagues, then dinner date with my husband. I have never received so many compliments on a jacket. Really want to wear it again and again, but it's a very memorable piece of clothing.

Forgettable bag
Pros: bag fit my laptop, all my work papers, wallet, great pockets and internal design Cons: very heavy bag even empty, and the handle is just a little too short to comfortably put over my shoulder and under my arm. After a couple of days of use, it was just too cumbersome to carry.

Beautiful top that added something special to my suit. Top does run a little large, and I needed Hollywood Tape to keep the top from gaping open.

Friday fabulous
Loved the fun print and fit of the top. The material is pretty heavy, which frankly worked pretty well in the chilly transition to spring. Paired this with black skinny jeans for some Friday meetings at the office.

Great to winter wedding
Fabric is pretty heavy, which worked well for a winter wedding. Although the dress was sleeveless, I didn't feel too cold. I really could have worn either the 2 or 4, but I chose the 2 so I didn't have to wear a bra (the 4 was a little too loose in the top to do so).
