LOVED
Would have bought if it weren't so comically expensive. So soft, really polished simple sweater. I miss it now that I've had to send it back!

Used as a kaftan - great colors
I left off the belt and wore this as a kaftan around the house over vacation. It was really colorful and pretty. It's lined so keep that in mind if you are looking for something lightweight

Too big, but still worked!
I had to go a size up because of what was available so they were too big, but they still worked well as a set with the top. There is a drawstring, and I just embraced the volume. Really fun set.

Cute as a set!
I wasn't sure about this top, but when I paired it with the pants it was a great look! Very cute, lightweight so cool in hot weather. I ended up being a bigger fan than I thought I'd be!

Cute but small
This is very cute but is very slim so you can't carry too many things with you. Okay if you only need wallet, phone, and lipgloss!

A great twist for a classic dress!
This dress was AMAZING! I loved the one shoulder ruffle detail - it made a simple floor length black dress really stand out. I wore this for my brother's wedding, and got compliments all night! The fabric it pretty thick but I wore smoothing undies to create clean lines. Both sizes fit but I went with the 6 for more space. Loved this dress!

Didn't wear - bust seams were odd
It's possible that this could fit another person well, but I found the bust seams to be very strange - totally off with my natural chest. It made the dress look awkward!

EXCELLENT
Totally fun jumpsuit - I could have worn either size but went with the larger one for more room for food! It was a little challenging to get in and out of, but I was able to do it myself without an issue - just practice before your event! Flattering fit, beautiful color, and a great canvas for big bold jewelry!

Too small, couldn't wear!
I ordered a 4 and a 6 and I have recently worn outfits in both sizes - but the 6 was WAY too small! I could get it closed, but I wouldn't have been able to eat, and I was worried a sneeze might send it busting open! Size up!

Super fun twist in the LBD!
This dress saved me when the jumpsuit I rented was WAY too small! I love that this dress is subtly exciting with the blue peeking out underneath, and the cutouts. The dress was comfortable and soft. I would rent again!

Unique and comfortable!
Loved this dress, will def rent again! The back is really interesting, wore it with a strapless bra with no problem. I went with a small, usually wear a 4/6. It was comfortable but not baggy (I was worried it might be!). The pattern is unique and it was lighter weight that i thought it would be, even with two layers.

Great fit! Color slightly less bright than I thought
If you have rented from Shoshana before, this fits true to the others I've tried. I wore the 4 but the 6 probably would have been fine. I thought the purple was going to be more jewel toned but instead it was darker and bluer - still very pretty! As always with RTR, I got lots of compliments.

This was a really fun way to avoid a solid color dress--the pattern isn't too loud but still stands out. Pretty standard sweetheart neckline fit. I really liked it! My friend asked for everyone to be colorful and this fit the bill!

Great structure, very flattering lbd
Loved the texture and the structured fit! Compliments all night! The 4 or the 6 could have worked but I chose the 6 because I wanted more room for dinner. I wore a statement ring and bracelet and left the neckline bare--the texture of the dress really speaks for itself even though it is all black. Will be renting again for sure!

Stunning and comfortable!
LOVED this dress! It's beautiful and comfortable--the bottom, while fitted, has stretch so dancing is easy! I wore a strapless bra with a converter so it didn't show on the sides. I got compliments all night long--it was amazing!

Great color, good structure!
Wore this for my graduation. Tons of compliments on the color! The fabric is double layered so it's very thick--I would probably have been hot outside. I belted it but it looked cute without a belt too! You can tell this dress has been worn a bunch because the overlay is a slightly faded shade of red compared to the under layer, but it's not noticeable to the untrained eye and the dress is still in good shape.

Too tight, didn't wear
I rented this dress for NYE during the $20.15 sale. It was too small in both sizes and I ordered up for my second size--short and very tight. I kinda felt like a Real Housewife of New Jersey. Maybe better for a Vegas trip but not for a house party!

Unique but understated, great fit!
I LOVED this dress! The netting is an awesome twist on that classic tulle layering, and the shape was really flattering. I'm usually between a 4 and a 6, and rented the 42 and 44. I could have worn either, but went with the 44 to have more room for food and cake! I would absolutely rent this again!

A fun twist on the lbd!
I got TONS of compliments on this dress and really loved wearing it. It's so fun, really pouffy and makes you stand out! My only complaint is that the inner dress portion on the lower half rides way up--I had to wear a slip underneath so I wasn't showing off my bum! Because it's stretchy I could have worn the 4 or the 6 (the both rode up!) but picked the 6 because it was a little roomier so more comfy and looked the same. Overall, a great dress!

More casual than I had hoped.
I rented this for a wedding in May, and thought that the fabric would be more "sateen" and less "cotton." Unfortunately, it just wasn't fancy enough for the wedding I was attending so I wore something else (also from RTR), but I think it would make a great dress for a daytime event.

Runs very small, particularly around the upper portion. I actually couldn't wear it. The material is scratchy, my underarms were irritated after the few minutes I tried to get it on. Still a great color, I was bummed I didn't get to wear it.
Member Fit Notes
I rented this dress for a summer wedding on the cape and it was perfect. The material is a fancier take on cotton - it has a subtle satiny sheen- so wearing this beachside meant that I still looked polished, but not over dressed. The dress does seem to run a bit small (I can usually fit in to 4s, but wore my backup 6 and it fit perfectly). I got tons of compliments and couldn't help spilling that I rented it! Great dress!

Easy to wear and adorable!
I rented this dress for a wedding in May, and it was absolutely perfect. I had it sent to the hotel (my fave thing to do with RTR! Less baggage!) and it fit perfectly. The style advice was right on. I work it with a statement necklace and got compliments all night long. I would absolutely rent this again, and will be looking at Halston again in the future!

Unique and light-weight. I got compliments all night long (and always bragged it was rented!).
My friends and I sang during the wedding ceremony, so I wanted to look especially nice. I got compliments all night long on both the singing AND the dress! The wedding was in Atlanta, and I chose this dress for the weather as much as the occasion. It's chiffon so nice and lightweight for a city that is known for getting HOT. It was a total success. The medium fit perfectly (I usually wear a 6), and I could place the belt wherever made the dress the most flattering. I would definitely recommend this dress. The pattern really makes it stand out among a sea of solids!

Wish I could have fit!
I actually picked this as my backup to another order, but they only had a 4 available and I am usually a 6. While I could get it zipped, I was in danger of busting a seam, and definitely wouldn't have been able to sit down--but that isn't the dresses' fault! It is a beautiful color, the fit (even when so tight!) was great, and I can't wait for another even to come up so I can rent this in my size!

This dress was perfect! I got it as a backup dress for a wedding in Napa, and ended up wearing to the rehearsal dinner. The navy is really pretty, and the dress fits really well. I plan to rent this again, and also rent other Shoshanna dresses after this success!

I really enjoyed this dress! It was slightly small (I rented the 6 and the 8 and went with the 8, but that same weekend wore a rented Shoshanna in a 6). The 6 could zip, but the 8 gave me more breathing room, as there isn't much give to the dress. The color is slightly more golden then this picture, but it is absolutely beautiful, particularly in the sunshine. I got compliments all night long, and of course couldn't help spilling that it was rented! There is some boning in the dress that got a little pointy, which I think comes with wear, but overall it was conforable and beautiful.
