Pretty dress, way too much fabric
This dress was unique and made of beautiful fabric, however, the draping on the bodice had way to much volume. It added unnecessary puffiness to the shape of the dress/bustline. At first I thought it might be stretched out, but the backup dress was similar. I did not end up wearing this dress and wasted money on a rental. You’re better off going with another selection!

Puff Shoulder Printed Dress

This dress was beautiful!!
This dress was perfect for a formal wedding. The overall look was beautiful and flowy. The top fit very well, but it was a bit tight around the waistline. If you are wider in the torso, you might want to go up a size. The skirt itself was very long. I'm 5'8 and had to wear 4 inch heels, and I still to be careful not to trip the whole night. I'd probably hesitate to rent this dress again, just because the length was a bit of a hassle, but for all of you taller ladies, then it would be an awesome choice!

This dress was phenomenal.
I can't even begin to say how much I loved this dress. I felt amazing in it and didn't want to send it back! It was actually a back-up dress that was sent last minute after my first choice ended up being unavailable due to damage from a previous renter. As always, RTR's customer service is always excellent, and they helped me find another option easily. This dress ended up being the perfect choice for a formal wedding in Napa. It had the just the right amount of sparkle and the red color was so rich. The fit was very true to size. If you are larger chested or have a wider torso, then I would go up a size as your back-up. The length is an added benefit since it picks up in the front- I didn't have to worry about it being too short. I got so many compliments throughout the night. I would definitely rent this dress again!

Red Precision Gown
Marchesa Notte

Flowery and light, perfect for a wedding or summer affair.
I didn't end up wearing this dress. It was very pretty when I tried it on, but it was far too short for a dress that was supposed to be a "long" size. The lining of the inner skirt layer was actually longer than the outer layer, and the differences in color showed. It almost looked like a mistake with an alteration. Other than that, the dress was very light and flowed nicely.

Utopia Maxi
Badgley Mischka
Size Worn: None

Loved this dress.
I actually did not end up wearing this dress because it fit a bit snug in the leg area. I felt like it might be hard to dance. But, it was a fantastic dress. The top was a great fit and really fattering on the neckline/shoulder area. The big bow was actually a nice detail and did not seem overwhelming. I might rent this again for another formal occasion (one with less dancing!).

This dress was perfect for a rehearsal dinner.
The color was a bit more muted in real life, but I got lots of compliments on this dress. It was very flattering and fit very well.

I wore this dress for NYE and loved it!
The slip dress was a bit small on the top, so I ended up wearing the large slip with the medium dress, which worked perfectly. I loved the lace detail and felt comfortable, yet sexy all night!
