Obsessed!
I need to just buy this jacket and wear it every day. It's perfect for a late summer-fall transition. The lace gives you coverage while also being a bit breezy. I just loved it!

Perfect Summer Dress
I loved this dress. The only caveat was that the wrap did not suit my smaller bust size so there was a lot of gapping on the top. Everything else about this dress was absolute perfection.

I loved everything about this dress. I was able to wear it all night without the sequins bothering me what so ever. It was a perfect NYE dress.

This dress is so flattering and unique. It really makes a statement without screaming for attention. I loved the fit and the flattering neckline.

Easy Peasy!
I love an easy to wear dress and this fits the bill. It's going to flatter every body type and you don't have to worry too much about it not fitting. The length is perfect, the swing is full and the comfort level is top notch!

So cute!
This is such an easy dress/top to wear. I actually ended up wearing this with skinny jeans and a grey moto jacket to a brewery tour in early spring. It was a bit too short for me to wear without something underneath.

A bit too small...
Unfortunately, this was a bit too short and bit too tight in the hips to be worn. I'm not sure it is the best fit for a wider hip/pear shape.

Understated ease.
This is the perfect day to night dress. It is a tad short but can be made more conservative with tights. The arms are a bit small but not as bad as typical designer dresses.

Beautiful, easy to wear dress!
I adore this dress! It's so comfortable and easy. We did a winery tour this day and it fit in perfectly with the fall setting. I only wish the lining would have run the length of the dress instead of stopping at the knee. That was a surprise, but it did not stop me from falling in love with this dress.

Adorable date night dress.
Size up because this zips right at the rib cage and does not have much give. It is very short but with tights, you feel a little more conservative. The back is sexy, without giving away too much. It's just a really fun, spunky dress to wear out.

I cannot express how happy my belly was when I was able to eat everything at Thanksgiving and still feel so pretty. This adorable swing dress is so flattering and comfortable you will not want to take it off. It's just very easy to wear.

Perfect LBD, just not for me.
Unfortunately, I was unable to wear this dress. I have wider hips and bigger arms that unfortunately prevented me from being able to fit in this dress. It looked like the bottom would flare out a bit more than it does. But I do really think it's a perfect classic LBD.

Cute and comfy!
This dress is really fun, but compared to the other Kate Spade dress I have rented this one felt a little bit less than. There was not a lining in the dress so be aware when selecting undergarments. I wish I was able to dress this up more and I think I would have been more of a fan. Unfortunately, Disney called for more comfortable shoes so the dress didn't fit in the most flattering way.

Dressed up or down this dress is everything!
I LOVED this dress! It was the perfect dress to transition from a daytime look into an evening dress. You feel like you are floating in this dress as is catches the breeze. This was one of my favorite rentals and I would absolutely rent this one again.

Compliments GALORE!
SIZE UP! This dress is beautiful and very comfortable but it zips right at the rib cage so there is no give. I thought I had sized up and had to call the fantastic team at RTR to send a couple additional sizes. There are large pockets to hold all of your goodies. The back is flattering and shows off all the good bits while hiding all the bits that could be problematic (at least in my case). I felt very confident and received a ton of compliments all night long.

A MUST RENT! STUNNING! BEAUTIFUL! UNFORGETTABLE!
Don't even think about it, just rent it! This dress is everything. It's the perfect weight. The back is stunning, sexy, and glamorous. There is a built in bra. I tried the stick on but because it drops so low in the front you could still see the bra, but it turns out the stick on wasn't needed. The zipper it horrible, but with determination and an extra pair of hands it's possible. However once it is zipped it's the perfect dress.

The purple is stunning. The shoulder detail is beautiful. This dress hugs all the right places. It does run long. I was wearing my tallest heels. Good undergarments should be wore to smooth everything out.

Unique fun and unforgettable.
Size up!!! I am typically a size 8, and found on at BCBG before my event to try on, but it was a size 12. That size 12 fit better than I thought it would, so I was very nervous about the size 8. This dress runs small. The size 8L was too short and too tight. I love the patter and the open but but it was just too uncomfortable to wear all night.

Much better in person
I was very hesitant on this dress. On the model it looks a little stiff and boxy, but in person it is beautiful. So flattering, It fits very true to size. I am 5'8", wore a 2" heel and it fell to the prefect length.

cute dress for a day to night look
The proper undergarments are a must! This dress will show every lump, bump and bra/panty line. It is very comfortable to wear. A great longer length without being too long or too short. The print is adorable. I would recommend sizing up. I wore a medium and I wish I had a large so it would lay a little better without being so clinging. The a-line helped this dress from riding up throughout the day as opposed to its tighter counterpart.

I got so many compliments!
I rented this dress for a charity event. It really is awesome. I love the mix of mesh and lace. I think the dress runs true to size. I am pretty busty (38DDD) and typically have to go up a size. I usually wear a 14, but ordered the 16 (out of the 14). I think the 14 would have fit a little better (for reference, I'm 5'5 and 185 pounds, with an hourglass shape). I felt the waist was kinda baggy. Overall though, a wonderful dress and a fun take on the little black dress.

I LOVE TUTU's! Perfect Skirt.
This is the most amazing tutu. It was very hard to send back and I'm already looking for where I can buy one. This skirt is very easy to wear. I received so many compliments that night and just felt like a rock star ballerina.

Compliments Abound! The perfect NYE outfit.
I was very nervous about ordering this outfit. I called it my motivational dress. The top is beautiful. I found it to be very comfortable and not scratchy at all. However it is not as long as pictured on the model. I am even a smaller chested person and it hit almost right below my bra.

Adorable!
This dress is so comfortable and perfect for a little night out. POCKETS! I love the pockets. It's a very nice length, not too short. The image is beautiful and adds a nice element to what could be a basic dress. I also loved the simple detail of a "v" back.

Very Sporty
I received this dress as a back up to my order. It was so flattering. The material is very interesting. I loved the shimmer in the grey. It did feel a little too sporty for my night out. It felt list more of a casual dress. Almost something you could pair with tennis shoes. This was my husbands favorite dress out of the 3 I received. On side note. UPS delayed my order to be delivered after my event date. I contacted RTR and within 10 minutes of hitting send on my email I had three new dresses being delivered that Saturday for my event. RTR did a FANTASTIC job! I was incredibly impressed. From New York to the east coast in less than 24 hours. Impressive. Thank you.

Cute & Sassy
I received this dress as a back up to my order. The print is very cool. I love a cap sleeve. However it's very short! I am little more conservative in my skirt lengths, and I'm okay rocking a mini once in awhile. However when my spanxs peek out it's too short for me.

Classy & Quirky makes for a great NYE dress!
This was the perfect dress for New Year’s Eve. It was comfortable, classy and something different from the typically black New Year’s Eve attire. The pockets are a wonderful perk and allowed me to always have my lip gloss nearby. This dress runs very true to size and there is no stretch in the fabric. I would recommend ordering your regular size and select the size larger for your extra dress…just in case.
