Beautiful, lightweight work dress
First thing I've bought from RTR! This dress is flowy, lightweight and super flattering. I did have to safety pin the chest to make myself feel a bit more comfortable for work. The sleeves are a fun touch, and the print is so lovely.

Definitely felt like a maternity outfit
Jumpsuit was super comfortable. I felt it ran a bit large and wish I had sized down. The crotch was incredibly low, like halfway down my thighs, but I'm assuming it's to grow with your bump.

Gorgeous, comfortable and unique
Fits true to size, maybe a bit large but very flattering (I wore the XL for some extra room at 13 weeks of pregnancy). Loved the fabric and the sleeves, they were so billowy and flowy. Great length, not too short and perfect for my mom's fall wedding.

Most comfortable yet flattering jumpsuit!
I seriously loved this jumpsuit. The fabric was light and flowy, but the wrap around the waist made it form fitting. I wore a regular bra which worked except it showed a bit under my arms (as you can see in the picture), not a huge deal. The stitching at the chest was a bit frayed, so I had to reinforce it a bit so it wasn't too low cut - ultimately it was perfect. I received so many compliments and my friends wanted me to buy it. Would definitely rent again!

Beautiful dress for a rehearsal dinner in Key West
Loved the color and the print of this dress! I've never worn a Lilly dress before, and this one has me hooked. The dress was a bit short, so I sized up to feel a bit more comfortable and not be pulling the hem down all night. The dress had a nice bit of stretch to it, and the sleeves weren't too tight, making it really comfortable. The fabric was a little on the heavy side, but it was totally fine in warm weather.

Fiesta Printed Dress

Beautiful, unique print
This dress fit true to size. I have broad shoulders and this fit really well, it wasn't too tight. I loved the fabric - I didn't realize that it had elephants and jungle cats which was a super fun surprise. The ties on the midsection were a bit odd - it's actually two ties that you tie on the sides. I don't really know how to explain it. Anyway, the dress was missing one of the ties, so I paired with a belt instead and I think it pulled look together even better. It was cold, so I paired it with black tights and brown booties. Got compliments on it all day!

Great party dress!
The sequins definitely scratched my arms a bit, but other than that it was pretty comfortable. The length was great, and it didn't ride up at all. I'm not used to such a low cut neckline, but hey, it was perfect for a night out in Vegas! And I was able to wear just a regular bra with the dress, which was awesome.

Amazing color!
The color of this dress was amazing. The cut was super flattering, and the fabric was beautiful. I definitely found that shapewear was necessary. The reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is the fit of the dress. I wore the 12 which was a bit snug, but the 14 was absolutely huge - the difference in size was crazy. I would have loved a dress that fit somewhere in between. Overall still loved it and received compliments all day!

Beautiful, flattering, comfortable!
Wore this for a roaring 20s party - it was actually my backup dress but it worked perfectly. The dress was super flattering and comfortable, no support wear necessary ha! I probably could have comfortably sized down, but it was great. Tons of compliments all night. Oh and total plus - POCKETS!

Super cute and comfy, just really short!
This dress felt like wearing a comfy tee, it was awesome. However, I'm pretty short and the dress was extremely short on me - the only way I could wear it out was with black tights. It worked just fine doing it that way and really did look great, but just know it's really short!

Show stopping bachelorette dress!
Absolutely loved this dress! Wore it for my bachelorette party, which was a night of dancing. The dress was comfortable and only started to scratch under my arm after 3 straight hours on the dance floor. The length was perfect for me, and it was overall just very flattering. I received compliments on it all night and would rent it again in a heartbeat.

Stunning! So many compliments
Absolutely loved this skirt, rented from RTR and for the first time truly did not want to send back. I'd say it was slightly on the smaller side only because it didn't have any give, so I definitely went with my larger back up size. Length was great, wore flats bc I wanted to be comfortable and was fine, although I could have worn heels and been fine too. The quality was amazing and it moved and sparkled beautifully. Would definitely rent again (or purchase)!

Loved this dress!
Probably my favorite RTR rental so far. Wore this for a charity event. The 12 fit perfectly, didn't even try the 14. The fabric was great, and the long sleeves were awesome for a chilly March evening. Can't wait to rent this in navy and white as well!

Beautiful top to get engaged in (!) but not the best fit for my body type...
I loved the color and the lace detail. However, it was not the most flattering top on my. Since the shirt doesn't have any give, it was stretched a bit over my chest and didn't really do anything for me in that area. But that was really my only criticism. I think people who have a smaller chest won't run into that problem. And it's definitely a crop top. I've never worn one before and I think I learned they're not really for me. Still happy with the rental overall.

Beautiful dress for a night on the town
Dress was beautiful and fun for a night out in New Orleans for my birthday. Just like other reviewers said, definitely runs small. I sized up and it was still snug for me. Under the arms was itchy, but nothing unbearable. Also very short (which might be because I have a lot in the back) and wearing it with tights was a must for my comfort level. Overall it was a comfortable and beautiful dress - just definitely size up because it's not a shift!

This dress was absolutely beautiful and I got compliments all night - I did not want to return it!
The color was absolutely stunning, the fabric was beautiful, and the fit was great. I'm 5'4" and was able to wear flats with the regular length - it did brush the floor a bit but it definitely wasn't dragging. It was extremely flattering for someone like me who is not super tiny. I agree with other reviewers - the zipper was EXTREMELY difficult to zip up. It was a bit snug on the top, but I have a full chest so that's probably why, but it was by no means too tight or uncomfortable. All said and done, I would rent this dress again in a heartbeat and would recommend it to anyone else.
