Comfy heavy dress
The waist seemed to hit a little low on me but nothing a belt couldn't fix. Comfy & flattering. Very soft sweater top & stretchy waist area.

Sparkly & Scratchy
More sparkly/flashy than I was expecting. But pretty uncomfortable because the material was rather scratchy.

Great winter option for work-to-play
Quality thicker material made for a great winter dress. A little gaping near the armpits/ chest, but a nice length (not too short)

This unique skirt is EXACTLY what RTR is for!
I got so many compliments on this high-waisted skirt! The problem (?) is it makes such a statement that you can't bring it into the semi-weekly outfit rotation. This is the perfect piece to rent once a month... which I absolutely plan on doing!

Professional yet unique and the belt allows for a figure-flattering shape If I didn't already have so many navy dresses, I'd want this on permanent rotation!

Fun & Flirty... but SHORT
This top is short so I sized up. I don't think it impacted the overall fit at all, but the larger size meant I was more comfortable running around in it with no fear of exposing some muffin top.

Comfy with a Classy Flare
Will definitely be renting this one again! Yeah, you should probably wear it without a bra, but a nude bra won't turn any heads and will make the look even more comfortable.

Great pattern but a little short
I didn't end up wearing this because it was a bit tight around the rib cage but the bigger dealbreaker was the length. Size up if you're on the taller end of the spectrum (and if it's loose, just belt it!)

Certainly get your money's worth with this exquisite, delicate, effortless dress
This dress fit my body type very well (I know, so modest) - but to be more specific, the chest area is relatively big/spacey in relation to the waist size. It fell a little longer than I would like (only about 2 inches above the knee) but made the dress more conservative and with the material silky and lightweight, it was perfect for the rehearsal dinner I attended. The ribbon tie (provided with the dress) allows you to cinch the dress at the waist and create a nice figure. This dress is beautifully made, simple in structure but a unique pattern/look - I'd certainly recommend for those who are a little more busty (to fill out the top) and on the taller side (so it doesn't fall awkwardly at the knee).

Who knew something so elegant could be so comfortable
This color pops, perfect for your fall/winter events. The detailing on the dress is beautiful, receiving compliments all night! Definitely a go to if you're looking to stand out but still be on the conservative side.

Not for the busty, nor for the short
In order for this dress really to shine (and it is beautiful), it would be helpful to be on the taller side. If I had an extra inch or two, the skirt would have lifted above the ankles more. Also, a smaller chest would have helped as the top is very fitted. In other words, look at the model and see if your measurements might match up. Oh, and the material is a tad heavy so probably best for winter events.

A conservative style that still turns heads with it's intricate details and bright color
I wish I had a photo I could upload of this dress because it was very flattering and I received compliments all night. I usually wear a 4 but read reviews that you should size up so when the 4 wasn't available I chanced it and ordered only the 6. Turns out it was the perfect size for me! The color blue is a little brighter than it appears in the photo, which only makes it more beautiful and standout more. The material is a tad heavier than you would think a summer dress should be so if you're going to be outside in the sun all day it may be too thick.

Small soft clutch PERFECT for holding your cell and a few other essentials
I hate lugging around a giant bag but sometimes the smaller ones aren't functional. This bag was the perfect size for holding all my essential items for the night: phone, mirror, lip gloss, cash, plus it was simple yet elegant.

Elegant and flattering - truly shimmer when you walk
This dress fit like a glove - not too long with 3 inch heels and the bodice has a good amount of stretch to it (so I would recommend choosing a size down for your second choice) Wore with Nicole Romano Crystal Tears of Joy Earrings

Great accessory if you're looking to add some sparkle
These earrings were a little larger than I'm typically comfortable with and in person they sparkle a lot more than they appear to in the photo but they're stunning and would be perfect if you're looking to dress up a formal outfit.

Classy yet fun springtime dress
I ordered this dress for just $25 with my order of another dress. I was only given one size choice and went with my usual 6. Fit perfectly snug across the chest; however, slightly loose in the waist which I think was unnoticeable to others. Loved the lace sleeves! And in general, the overlay of the red lace on the orange liner was very unique and wonderfully done. Hit a little above the knee (not as short as it looks in this photo)

Elegant and hugs in all the right places
I was so in love with this dress that I refused to change for the after party and wore it comfortably for 11 hours. The deep purple lace angle tiering really makes a statement! I ordered a 6R and 4R. I tried the 6 on first and it fit perfectly. I tried the 4 on for kicks because the fabric is rather stretchy but that thing was not going to make it's way around my chest. Conclusion: for me, this dress was true to size as I usually wear a 6. I would've ordered a Long if it was available but the Regular length turned out to be exactly what I needed. I am 5'6" and wore 3" heels with it hitting right about the floor in the front and dragging a little in the back (I traded my heels in for flats in the photo attached) Minor issue noted: the lace along the top was folded over and stubborn, but I could get it to stay up with fashion tape Worn with: Badgley Mischka Ocean Moon earrings

Perfect if you're looking to glam-up an outfit
These earrings were worn by the model of the Nicole Miller dress I rented. They were a little heavier than what I was used to (hence the 4 stars) but wore them for 8 hours without a problem and were exactly what the dress/event demanded, a little extra sparkle.
