So sexy!
This was too sexy for the occasion I rented it for, but I'd rent it again! I felt like a bombshell in this! The drape is phenomenal and the neckline is perfect. This is a well designed dress. The color doesn't picture well, but it's a lovely steel gray. I'm still thinking about what I can do to arrange an occasion to wear this!

Maybe for a straight tall and lead figure
I wanted to like these so much, but yikes! They are not for you even if you have slight curves. I'm not quite curvy, not quite straight, and not quite athletic (though that description is probably best) and these did not work on me at all. Didn't even bother with a picture.

Way big but so cute!
These are really unique and I loved them. You can also roll the bottoms up for a cropped look. Styled right you can get a very hip hop vibe going. A pair of chunky Adidas with the bottoms rolled and a crop top...yes! The picture is just heading to a casual dinner with friends. The top is also RTR. I'm normally a 2-4 but got the 0 and they were still slightly big (but I loved the look that way).

Cute but not super special
I like the neckline and the unique sleeve length. The fabric is nice and it's easy to wear. I wore a strapless bra. It's a good filler piece to put into an order with some bottoms as it can be worn with many styles. Fit as expected.

Lovely, but not quite 5 star
The print is lovely and perfect for an April outdoor garden wedding. The neckline is stunning, as is the ruffle. Where this gets odd is the slit. The inside lining and the outside fabric of the dress meet oddly. Not a deal-breaker to rent it, but it would have been to buy it. It is also quite hot. I'm cold all the time and found this dress to be really warm, especially since it has such a light spring/summer vibe. I'm between a 2 and 4 but had to get a 6 because the 4 was unavailable. Based on reviews I thought that would be fine, but the 6 was definitely too big. I had to adjust all night and I had to wear a bra. With the 4 I think it would have been far more comfortable and with the structure, I could have went braless.

LOVE LOVE LOVE but LOOOOONG
I felt like a goddess in this dress and I didn't expect much from it. It was just so flattering and soooo comfortable. I got compliments all night. If it was in my budget, I'd buy this. I wore this to a mehndi party where I was both a guest and the henna artist. Saris are just too much of a pain to work in, so I wore this instead. It fit the theme perfectly and I had no problem running around getting pictures, sitting to work, changing working posititons...it was great! It is way long, as other reviewers have mentioned. I'm 5-4 and wore 5.5 INCH platforms and it was still brushing the ground. I'm between a 2 and a 4 and the 4 was good, but I think the 2 would have been even better.

Nice, but not as good as expected.
This has a bit of a little-girl feel to it. There is a netting underneath that is scrunched up weirdly (like it's been washed in water that was too hot). I got this for a reception dinner, but opted for another dress, so I decided to wear it for book club, lol! The embroidery was stunning! I think I would have loved this if it was just a little more streamlined/less poufy. I'm between a 2 and 4 and the 4 was a little big.

Gorgeous cut and color
This looks and feels high-end. The color is just stunning and the cut is so flattering. I'm between a 2 and 4 and I think the size 2 would have been a better fit, but the 4 was fine.

FAN-FLIPPING-TASTIC!
I was unsure about the pattern and the neckline, but I'm so glad I got this. It's one of my favorite rentals of all time. I wish I could have worn this more than once. It's super flattering, slightly sexy, soooo comfortable, and silky soft. It would be nice if it had a hook and eye closure at the top to make it easier to zip up. I'm between a 2 and a 4 and the size 2 fit PERFECTLY!

Gorgeous! Beautiful lines
When I first saw the color, I was bummed. I didn't think it would work on my pale skin, but after putting it on, I LOVED it. I'd consider buying this one. I wore it to a reception dinner with a pair of nude wedges and had multiple people ask where I got it. I got compliments all night. I'm between a 2 and 4 and the 4 fit perfectly. I think the 2 would have fit as well, but the 4 was what was available. I didn't wear shapeware, but I did put on a strapless bra. If I had the size 2, the bra would have been unnecessary.

So Cute!
I wore this shirt three times while having it. I normally wear a small, but only the XS was available. It was a bit tight through the bust, but fine. The length is perfect.

Exceptional - so unique!
I loved this. I got soooo many compliments. I was taking a trip to colder weather and didn't want just the same boring sweaters. This was exactly what I needed! Despite the cut outs it was very warm and looked so good. It's true that it's not super comfortable, but it's not uncomfortable either. The look is totally worth it. If I didn't live in Florida, I would have bought it.

Rock star dress!
This didn't work for the event I got it for, but I would definitely rent this again. The cut, perfect! Flattering and easy to move in. The color, gorgeous! I'm not normally a fan of red, but this was stunning. More of a blue red than an orange red. The overall look, rockstar! The sequins, color, and sexy cut combine to make this fabulous. You could accessorize this in many ways, but I'd love to wear this to an event with studded heels or booties and a sleek leather moto jacket.

Heavy and long torso
It's very pretty but really heavy. It looked and felt stuffy. This seemed to fit oddly. It was tight enough that I could go braless but not so tight that I needed shapewear (yea!), but the dress seemed to bunch oddly around the middle.

Fit okay, but didn't like it at all
This wasn't for me. I thought the back would be super cute, but it didn't lay right. It was like the top of the dress had excess fabric. It seemed basically true to size, or a touch big. In persona, I really disliked the color.

Just what a leather moto jacket should be!
Slim fitting and bada$$! This was so cute! I wore it twice and both times had people specifically compliment me. That fur collar really makes it unique. I found the fit to be true to size. I'm normally a small and I was worried based off other reviews that it wouldn't fit with a sweater under it, but it was perfect. This style of coat should be fitted and not super flexible. I'd rent again.

Size down, but cute and comfy
Definitely runs large. I wore it one tucked into a skirt with an obi belt for a dinner date. I got quite a few compliments on the top. I also wore it to work with pants, not tucked in. The fabric is thick but lightweight and draped nicely. Not the most exciting top, but a great versatile choice.
