Simple and elegant!
This dress was so comfortable and elegant! Fits true to size, material is stretchy despite being heavier and good for colder temps (wore to a November wedding). At 5'5" I needed heels to keep it off the ground. Very flattering cut, wore a stick on bra given that the back is open but the overlay on the top gives you enough coverage that you might be able to go without.

Wore this to a work holiday party and got compliments all night!
This dress fits true to size. I recommend a nude strapless bra, the top of the dress is a a tad see-through so wearing a colored bra will be noticeable! The material on the skirt is light and breathable. The size 8 fit perfectly and while I'm small-chested there was still room on the top for bustier gals.

Sadly, didn't end up wearing this cute dress.
This dress fit great except for the chest. Apparently I'm too broad, as the button wouldn't stay fastened.

Stunning dress! Elegant and fun.
This dress fit like a glove and was beautiful and fun to wear at a wedding! Loved the pockets - didn't need to bring a clutch as I had plenty of storage for my lipstick, phone, and wallet. At 5'5", the back of the dress was long but not dragging on the floor with flats on. I received ao many compliments on this dress!

This dress is lovely! But snug in the hips and waist.
As a wide-hipped yet small-busted gal, this dress just did not work for me. I tried the 10 as well, and while that made the hips feel slightly better, the top part of the dress was then way too big. Cute dress, just not cut right for my figure.

This dress is both classy and sexy, but runs big!
I really wanted to love and wear this dress, but it was just too big! I'm small chested, so I definitely could not fill out the top enough to hold it up. I tried double-sided tape but felt uncertain it would stay, so I opted to not wear it. Bummed!

This dress is fun and fit perfectly! Got loads of compliments on it!
I'm 5'5" and even with 2 inch wedges this dress was still a bit too long. But otherwise this dress fits like a dream! Super comfortable, light material, and fun print for a spring wedding.

Beautiful dress!
This dress was awesome for a garden wedding! Flowy and light, fit like a glove. The only downside was that it was a bit long for me at 5'6", even with heels. Fit true to size and I was able to wear a racer back bra without it showing. Got lots of compliments all night!

Beautiful dress! Nice and flowy for a spring or summer event!
I didn't actually get to wear this dress to my event as it didn't get delivered in time, but it is a very pretty dress. I'm usually a size 8 but the size 6 fit well, just a little tight in the waist (which doesn't stretch at all!).

I absolutely loves this dress!
This dress was so fun! I loved the low-high hem, and the pattern was perfect for a wedding held at a science museum! The fit was perfect and true to size. I'm small-chested, so the top might be tight if you have a larger bust.

Sexy and classy!
This dress runs big! I usually wear a size 8, but probably could have even worn a size 4 for this dress. I have a small chest, so this top half was a little big on me. A stick-on bra would be best. But otherwise this dress is gorgeous and super comfortable!

I loved this dress! Super comfortable, beautiful lace!
As someone who is small-chested, the top of the 8 was a little too big. But the size 6 was snug in the hips so I opted for the size I could move more easily in. I received lots of compliments in this dress! The open back and lace give it some character, while remaining simple and comfortable to wear. I didn't wear a bra with this dress because of the open back, but stick-ons would have worked. The dress has some natural support, so if you don't have a large chest you can probably forego a bra altogether.

Loved the sparkle on this dress!
I thought this dress fit true to size, although the waist band was pretty tight post-dinner. I was itchy in this at first but got used to it and didn't notice for the rest of the night. I wore this in August for Diner en Blanc and I will say that the material was heavier than I expected and it did not breath well, so not for outdoor events in the summer! Other than that, I felt fabulous in this dress!

My favorite rental so far!
I usually wear a size 8, but the torso on the 8 was too short. I wore the 10R which was a little long in the pant legs but nothing a bigger heel couldn't fix. The top was a little big on me but I'm pretty small busted. When I first tried this on the zipper was hard to get past the waist belt on my own, so I was worried about having to pee and being unable to get into it on my own, but I ended up managing just fine! This jumpsuit is stunning, although the top can be a little itchy. After a while I didn't mind or notice. Awesome rental! Thanks, RTR!

Perfect for a fall wedding!
I got so many compliments on this dress! It was perfect for an autumn wedding at a winery :) The dress can be a bit heavy, and at 5'5" even the regular was a tad long. Definitely need to wear heels with this one! But very comfortable and you can wear a regular bra which is a plus.

Great color and perfect to wear for a wedding!
I'm usually a size 8, but this dress ran big so I had to go with the 6, which was still a bit big because I have a smaller bust. The color is fantastic! I rented the recommended necklace as well which weighs a ton but compliments the dress well.

This dress is beautiful! My first RTR experience and I will absolutely be using this service again!
Wore this for Diner en Blanc in Philly, it was gorgeous! However, the fit wasn't perfect, but I'm an odd build. The top was too tight so it kept folding down a bit, but I suspect that's because my lats and shoulders are broad from years of rock climbing. The 10 fit better in the chest but the rest of the dress was like a huge tent, so I went with the 8. Overall, this dress is gorgeous and the material is light enough to wear in the summer heat and humidity.
