One of my most stylish RTR rentals ever!
I’ve been renting with RTR for well over a decade and this was by far one of my favorite rentals, and that’s really saying something. Paired with the leather pants, Valentino heels, and a light gold multi circle necklace and earrings, it was a hit in every room. People stopped me on the streets to complement this top! Some people said this top runs small but that was not my experience. Hope this is helpful! 💛

Don’t Sneeze
Because you could share all of your goodies with the WORLD! This looks “tricky” in pics—but it quickly goes to “perilous” in the blink of an eye when you try it on. I’m a 36 C and had no business in this top. Proceed. With. Caution. ⛔️

As Comfortable as it is Stylish
I wore this top to an IRL event at the RTR flagship store. It couldn’t have been more stylish or comfortable. The top had a way of sitting on the top of my jeans which kept it from being tricky and falling down. Hope that helps. Enjoy!

This dress felt as good as it looked. I actually wore a bra with straps and just pulled them off of my shoulders a bit. It was comfortable and luxurious—always a stellar combination. Enjoy 👗

This dress is a dream! It’s comfy, flowy and cute. The color is vibrant and looks lovely on many skin hues. And… It. Has. Pockets!!! My hubby and I paired it with a Ralph Lauren polo that matched identically. People had fun teasing us but everyone agreed it looked magical. Enjoy!

RTR Ambassador Review - Three layers of flouncy fun!
This dress was flirty and fun, but not immature. That’s the only way I can describe it. At 56 I was wondering if I’d look “girlier” than I’d like in it. However, the dress was as well made as it was cute. It has a slip, tulle, and fabric skirt. The bodice is very forgiving with its elastic and structured bust. I used a small belt for a bit more definition. I’m a C+ cup and it fit well. @lesliemaxie88 thinks you’re going to look fantastic RTR sister! 💚

RTR Ambassador Review - It’s a whole lotta real estate
These high quality sunglasses are what you’d expect from @Chloe; chic, sturdy and with great tint. It was a lot for my face to handle. I took this pic so that you could see the angles for yourself. When I rented them when they were still in limited access and there were no pics. Hopefully this review helps you! Take care, lesliemaxie88

RTR Ambassador Review - Just OK and Super Overpriced
Being able to wear something that’s overpriced is one of the RTR perks. However, at least be cute and/or luxurious. This was neither. It could not have been more basic, lest they put effort into it. In the real world, there’s NO WAY I would pay $75 for these shorts, let alone $275. You can pass and feel no pain on these—and it’s partner top. 🫤

RTR Ambassador Review - This top IS the sun ☀️
Yellow is my signature color, so when I saw this top, it was immediately a must have! It did not, on any level disappoint. It doesn’t wrinkle easily, it’s sunny, comfy, and couldn’t be more cute. I’ve had for a few weeks and anticipate keeping it a while longer, @lesliemaxie88 is a keeper. 💛

RTR Ambassador Review - Most Beautiful/Most Wrinkled EVER
This dress is going to test your ironing chops 😩. However, it’s pretty much worth it! It must’ve taken me 30 minutes to iron this dress… But I couldn’t go 30 feet without someone stopping me to compliment me on how stunning the dress is. It’s comfortable, and easy to wear, once you get past the initial shock and awe of the ironing it will require. I say go for it. ✅ I hope that’s helpful. 💛

RTR Ambassador Review - Wear great under garments
The key this dress not looking like a tent, is wearing a great bra and shaper. This helps the dress to fall evenly. It is very well made. The fabric is luxurious and the details are fantastic—especially the gatherings under the arms. All in all, it’s cute. I really “liked” it, but I thought I should have LOVED it. 🥰

RTR Ambassador Review - BBQ Cutie
I feel kinda meh 🫤 about this dress when I initially tried it on. However, it grew on me. The material is thicker than I anticipated but it’s super short. It felt like an odd combination. Once I dressed it up with accessories etc., I liked it MUCH more.

This dress is life! The fit, the well-structured poof sleeves, the pattern—are all perfection! Also, because the pattern is pretty busy and the fabric is high quality, wrinkles are minimal. You won’t be able to go more than a few yards before your next barrage of compliments showed you! Enjoy!

RTR Ambassador Review - Tight for the girls 👧🏾
Cute and edgy, multilayered dress. The mesh is on-trend. However, I felt like my girls were bound with an ace-bandage. I even took a pic and sent it to my fashion guru before I wore it. She said she couldn’t tell until I said something. I’m a 36 C. If you’re my size or larger, just don’t chance it. If you’re smaller you’ve got a winner! Hope this helps.

Ambassador Review - For the Win! 🥇
When I first tried this on, I was so-so on it. However, it grew on me, fast. The key was the thick belt. The pattern of the skirt with the top was too much. The belt really broke it up and slimmed my waist in the process. I believe, this diet works for most shapes. Enjoy 😉

Ambassador Review - Creative Couture
When I ordered this dress, my vision was to use it as a duster for a dress I’m not quite courageous to wear along. Jackpot! This combo was striking and safe-ish for a lunch date. If worn alone, it is a lot of fabric, Although, I liked the sleeves, a review said it was a lot. I hope this review helps you determine how you might use this super cute items.

I wanted to wear something, cute, comfortable, and decidedly spring. This dress fit the bill. It’s Rüsing around the waist with surprisingly forgiving. It allowed me to indulge in a glorious Easter dinner, without feeling like I was going to burst out of my spanks. This is definitely the dress to wear when you want to be comfortable and classy. 🍋

Seriously, one of my favs!
I was introduced to Rent The Runway when my daughter was 17 years old and she rented a dress for her junior prom. She’s 28 now. This dress is one of my favorite of all times—hence the photo bomb! 🤣 The ruching (Sp?) is perfection! All of the idiosyncrasies of the dress make it fit, almost any frame. You cannot look bad in this dress! That’s all I have to share. #enjoy 💛

Better sizing. So-so replica.
I rented this dress back in 2019. I was a surprised when I saw it was available recently, so I grabbed it. The dress arrived and it’s very different than what I rented in 2019. The cut of the top wasn’t as smooth on the material draping. The fabric is thinner and shinier. While still leaning smallish, the sizing is more accurate and that is a huge win! The first time it was a tight squeeze, to put it mildly. However, don’t get me wrong, it is still a gorgeous dress and it’s going to look GREAT on you!

It’s worth getting the set!
If the top and bottom are available, use two slots to secure them both. This set is iconic! When I first tried this set on I wasn’t crazy about its shape on me. I have no hips and looked very boxy. I tucked it in so the brown slimmed my waist and ya-da, instant classic. I paired it with a cropped mink jacket and Hermes scarf and people weee stopping me on the streets on NYC to share compliments. You’re gonna rock this, RTR friend!

I felt like Audrey Hepburn. For a woman who is known as “one of the guys” in many circles, this dress created a distinctly feminine moment for me. I loved every second of it. This dress was comfortable without a worry of a wardrobe malfunction. It stayed in place through a rigorous but very fun, photoshoot. I hope you have as much fun in this dress as I did.

I rented this cutie pie three times before I wore it. I’m so glad I got the opportunity. The satin isn’t super shiny which gives it a luxurious look and feel. It falls so easily over your body that you feel effortlessly sexy.

Despite the hemmed pants, I made it work—and so can you, tall lady!
These pants should have fit but someone hemmed them. They were too short to be intentional and not short enough to be a style. I was about to send them back when a girlfriend who’s a stylist simply suggested cuffing them and wearing strappy sandals. I borrowed my cousins orange Birkin bag, and I was unstoppable! Ta-da! It all worked. It’ll work for you too. Enjoy! 🍊

….You won’t regret it. This jacket is impeccable and the pants take it to a whole other level. This is one of those delicious times when the price is justified by the quality. The material is thick-ish but I wore the suit in Philly at 40 degrees and Dubai at 85–I was comfortable both climates. This suit is special.

I actually considered wearing it with one sleeve—it’s that beautiful 😍
This dress is #1 in my all time “Stalking” heart list. I saw it on an RTR ad and NEVER EVER saw it available in my Unlimited subscription. Imagine my delight when, out of the blue, it was available AND in MY SIZE!!! That’s a day I should have played Lotto—I felt that lucky. Imagine my dismay when it arrived with only ONE SLEEVE. Ugh, disappointment doesn’t begin to describe how I felt when I realized it. No lie, I considered wearing it with one sleeve! It is a gorgeous dress. It felt so good on. The material is silky when I thought it would feel like cotton. The fit was just right. I felt like a one-armed Goddess. Alas, I opted to send it back. Suffice to say, if you ever come across this beauty (one armed or two) you’ll fall in love. 💛

I don’t have enough superlatives to describe how fantastic it was to wear it with this gorgeous city as the backdrop. The dress was comfortable and easy to wear.

This Review Tears Me Up 😩
Maybe you’re the lucky girl who can wear this practically couture suit successfully! The cut, fabric, and color of the suit are the stuff of fashion dreams 💛. My signature color is yellow. Imagine my joy when this assemble arrived on RTR. My plan was to wear it for my final onstage event of the year. I got the jacket before the pants came on the RTR Unlimited site. I stalked the pants for WEEKS! I could not have been more disappointed when the pants arrived and they had been altered by FOUR INCHES! The alteration job was done so well, I had to measure the pants to confirm they were in fact, shorter than the website description. I worked with the very kind and accommodating RTR customer service team to secure another size 8, but they never became available before my event. In the end, despite LOVING the throwback cut, fabric, and color of the suit, the altered pants were just too short to wear.
