Not my favorite
This sweater is a much more golden yellow than I was expecting (see pic). It also ran really large in the shoulders and arms, even for a boxy cut.

Beautiful dress, bad zipper
I loved this dress and was so disappointed when I went to wear it and realized that the zipper was broken at the bottom and not only wouldn't fully unzip but was misaligned and left a small gap in the dress, so I wasn't able to wear it to my event. It does run a bit small in the chest/rib area - I am 120lbs and sporty shaped and the 4 just fit me at the top of the zipper area. The bottom fit fine though except for the zipper issue. Worth a rental but definitely look at the zipper early instead of waiting until the day of your event!

Beautiful dress for a bridesmaid, not everyday
The dress itself is well made and beautiful, blush color that flatters most skin tones. However, what is not noted by RTR on the dress page is that this is from the bridal collection and it definitely looks like it. If you are looking for a bridesmaid dress, this is a great option. If you are looking for a long flowing gown for anything else, this wouldn't be my favorite choice.

Runs really, really big!
This dress was not as cute in person as in the photo. The dress ran very large, to where you could actually see down the back of it while I had it on. The bow that ties in the back was really awkward too, it was a lot of long material that was uncomfortable to wear while sitting down and leaning against a chair or car seat. Not for me.

Super cute and fun!
Easy to wear and a nice bright yellow standout color make this a fun rental. It runs large in my opinion, I'm 120lbs, 5'7" athletic shaped and the size 2 felt big in the top half especially. The sleeves are a bit too heavy of a material for the flutter shape which adds to the feeling it runs big, but still super cute and mostly comfortable.

Odd fit for my body type
The dress is very pretty and soft wispy material that flows well... unfortunately it isn't wearable even with fashion tape for me. It fits true to size everywhere except the chest which for a smaller bust like mine was one small move away from a constant nip slip. The strapless side was massive on my size B chest, not even fashion tape would hold it on easily. Because the fit is T2S (running slightly small everywhere else if anything) there is no way I could size down and be able to actually zip it up. Might work better on someone with a bigger chest, but completely unwearable on me.

Runs very large, especially in the stomach area
This is such a cute dress, but unfortunately it wasn't very cute or comfortable on me. I sized down to an XS and it still was incredibly baggy and loose, which is made worse by how thick and heavy the dress material is making me look like I was wearing a blue burlap sack. It would be very relaxed and casual for a vacation but I personally thought it made me look about 15 lbs heavier on with all the excess material. It also wasn't comfortable, the material is heavy and scratchy and after 30 minutes had already started to rub against my armpit area to leave marks.

Love love love!
This fur is amazing! Super soft, well made and unique. It does run large (apparently everything will be oversized this season in outerwear), but it doesn't go boxy given the shape/material. Fair warning, this coat is heavy and very warm! It was great for a Texas gal surviving a winter trip to Ohio!

Super soft, strange fit
I wanted to love this more than I did.... the material is great, really soft and cozy. It came with the tags on and was returned with them still on. Unfortunately the fit was really off, it is supposed to be oversized but the way the proportions are, the jacket hits shorter lengthwise and then is just very wide, giving it a boxy fit. I ordered the XS and it was still huge (5'7, 110 lbs), except for the sleeves which were so short they did not even cover my wrists.

Beautiful color - another great Furla purse!
I love Furla purses, they are always high quality and last a long time, meaning it isn't bad looking even when you aren't the first to use it. This made for a great everyday purse and even after almost two months I hated to return it. The only drawback I would say are the straps cut into your shoulder when the bag is weighed down or carried for a long amount of time, such as traveling. Otherwise this is a great purse!

Beautiful color, unique dress
This dress was a showstopper amid the typical wedding attire of pastels and blacks. I received so many comments on the dress from both male and females. I did use fashion tape to make sure that I didn't flash anything, but you most likely wouldn't need it based on how it fits. Highly recommend this dress!

Cute, but odd fit on me
I loved the style of this dress, and it really pops with the color and the circle detail. It just fit on the top half, but from the waist down it was quite big. I am a straight and narrow/athletic build so this might be a different story for curvy figures, but on me it just hung odd when I wore it and when I sat down I had a dress tent with quite a bit of material. The top half was tight enough that I don't think I could have sized down anymore without it being uncomfortable.

Love this dress so much!!!
This dress is so amazing - it flows beautifully and is sexy but not actually very revealing at all. I am a size 4 usually and couldn't get the 1R, it's been out awhile so I decided to go with the 2R after reading some reviews on how it runs small. I'm glad I did - it fits slightly big but not to the point that anyone can really tell because the inside slip is adjustable and the big area of the outside dress just blends with the flowing skirt. I highly recommend this!

Great print and quality, weird fit
The dress itself is beautiful and very well made, but it was a very weird fit on me. The bottom of the dress doesn't have a slit, so there has to be enough material to let you walk with a long narrow skirt. In this, the dress fit perfectly on the top half, but it was very baggy on the bottom half. When I sat down at work I had a giant dress tent at my stomach which isn't very attractive! I am athletic build, so this might work better with someone who has more curves but for me it wasn't great.

Beautiful dress that is easy to wear! Love!
I had gotten this dress previously in a 2 and it was much too big so I've been waiting for the right time to get it again and I'm glad I finally did! I wore the 1 in this dress and probably should have gone for the 0, but it was still wearable, just slightly big. I'm also small chested which added to the fit issue, but nothing a piece of fashion tape couldn't solve. As others noted, it does run long. I'm 5'7 and it was very long in flats.

Love this dress!
This dress is super fun and flowy - it moves beautifully when you walk. I ordered a size larger than normal due to a swollen abdomen from surgery, making it a little too loose up top but I would image it would be true to size in my normal size. Highly recommend this as a warm weather dress for people!

Cute dress, not great on me
I liked the lace overlay style with the sundress top, but the pretty color dress underneath is washed out by the heavy cream lace, which was not a great coloring on me. I had read reviews stating it ran big, but it runs really, really large. I thought I wouldn't mind it a little roomy, but it was falling off. The girls were hanging out almost even after I pinned the straps up. I'd say go 2 sizes down unless you like things loose and have a larger chest than I do.

Great movement, flattering and fun to wear!
I was hesitant on this because it kinda felt a little costume like, but after reading the reviews I decided to get it. And I LOVE it!! It's so flattering, and has amazing movement. I am so happy I got this and totally recommend it. I did go up a size, mainly because I don't like super tight dresses on my stomach and I was happy with the size up.

Pretty colors, odd fit
This dress is nice material and pretty colors, but it just didn't fit my body right. No matter how tight or loose the top was tied, I'd get weird gaping at the sides which looked bad and sometimes offered a show of side boob... I didn't wear this feed for those reasons. I do have longer legs and a shorter stomach area, which might be the reason for this.

Loved it so much I bought it!
This is an amazing dress and every time I wear it I get stopped by people asking where I got it. I included a picture of the back of the dress with a slip underneath. I find with a nude slip it was just enough coverage with a little sexiness for every day use. If you don't wear a slip, there is one included in the dress but I find it the dress slip to be very see thru in sunlight. I can't recommend this dress enough - it is probably my favorite rental to date!

Unique take on the see through lace dress trend.
This dress is very well made - it has a bandeau nude piece to cover the girls and I found I could go without a bra and use fashion tape to hold the bandeau in place. It has a skirt that is a bit of a ballerina style that just makes you want to dance or move around. I love this rental and would highly recommend this dress for a fun flirty look.

Cute, but forgettable
This has a cute asymmetrical hem with lace peaking out, but it wasn't really anything special or memorable. Also, the way the arms are cut on it, I had limited movement making it awkward to wear for long. Something different than the usual LBD, but not something I would rent again.

Cute dress, hides problem areas
I got this dress to help hide my post surgery abdominal swelling. It's a very full bottom, so it definitely did this. I included a front and back pic to show just how full this is - I kind of felt like I was wearing a ballerina costume in it. I know others have said this runs large, but I thought it was true to size. I'm usually between a 4-6 and the 4 just fit. I think the 6 would have been more comfortable, but might have been too large in bottom. I liked this dress, but it wasn't one of my favorite rentals.

Pretty colors, strange fit
I loved the blues and greens in this dress's skirt, bold and beautiful. However, the dress fit was weird on me. As other reviewers have noted, the top can be large on small chested women (I am a 34 B cup). I'm usually a size 4-6, and knowing that the top ran big, I sized down to the 4. However, the 4 just fit because where the waist comes in (before puffing out to the full skirt) has absolutely no stretch. This also makes it difficult to zip up if you are a single lady living alone like me. And even though I sized down, the upper part was still too big around the arms and had extra fabric length wise as well. The skirt is exceptionally full, so I have included a second pic with a side view to show that. I am 3 months post abdominal surgery, so this was actually something I wanted in a dress, but I could see it being a surprise to see people just how full the skirt is. All-in-all I liked the dress, but it isn't one that I loved or even one that I am sure I'd rent again. It can be worn with a normal bra, and even has bra snaps to hold your straps in place, which was nice.

Cute dress, flattering cut
This is a cute dress that is a little more formal in person than I think the pictures made it seem because it is a very shiny material. I rented this through unlimited post abdominal surgery to hide a swollen stomach, would recommend this for women in early pregnancy as it would be bump friendly. It was a cute dress and very flattering cut because it isn't form fitting, but it wasn't anything overly memorable, which is why I only gave it 4 stars. Very comfortable though, and you can wear a normal bra with it, which is always a plus.

Beautiful colors and sexy dress
This dress feels expensive - super thick material, well cut and a very flattering cut. The cutouts at the bottom make it a very unique dress, the print is beautiful bold blues and greens and the v neck gave even me generous cleavage (and I'm a B cup). It does run small thru the chest/stomach area, so I recommend sizing up if you are between sizes because there is no give to the fabric. I fit into a size 6 (5'7" and probably 135 lbs when I wore this) and it was a bit tight. Super fun summer dress, highly recommend.

Love this!
I've never gotten a purse in my unlimited before, but thought it might be a fun change and I love this purse! You can tell it's been used, but only minor staining and wear shows on the bottom portion of it. The purse comes with the arm handles as well as a detachable and adjustable long strap, so super convenient to carry!

Super fun dress!
This isn't my usual dress style, but I recently had surgery and am trying to hide my swollen abdomen. I'm so glad I got this dress! It's super cute and really fun to wear. My camera work doesn't really do it justice, but it's a beautiful blue with the cute white asymmetrical hemline. I really recommend this one to anyone trying to hide a problem tummy area, or just someone who wants a blue dress with fun movement!

Great color, but super short!!
The dress itself is beautiful and well made with thick material. Like many other reviewers have noted, it's a boxy fit that runs really large. I recently had surgery and was trying to hide my still swollen abdomen, which this definitely did. Unfortunately I can't wear it, because at 5'7, it's barely covering anything while standing. I wouldn't be able to wear this out and easily sit or move around without worrying about flashing everyone. I'd recommend it for more petite ladies.

Pretty dress, but boxy and runs large
The dress is made from a nice high quality material, but even sizing down (I am between a 4 - 6 usually) I was swimming in it. Even for a dress that is not form fitting, usually it has some shape retention - this just made me look like I was wearing a pink and black sack. It was not flattering to me at all - sent it back the same day.

Beautiful color, odd shape and fit on me
The dress itself is beautiful - my camera work does not do it justice. I did order size up due to the comments, but I think I actually should have gone with my actual size. My advice would be that if you are between sizes normally, go to the larger size. Otherwise I think it fits true to size unless you are large chested or have wide hips. Since I am more athletic build, it fit a little baggy on me in the stomach area, hips, and arms. It did have a nice length on me though in this size and it was fun to wear. I would possibly rent this again, but probably in the 38.
