Cute but short
I really liked it, but it was more cropped than I anticipated.

Super fun dress!
This dress was comfortable and really fun to wear. I normally wear a 12 but the 10 was a perfect fit...I might even have been able to go down to an 8. I wore it for a night out with girlfriends in Vegas and loved the bright pink color as well as the cut of the back of the dress. The pockets were a nice touch...I could store my phone and lipstick easily. I'd love to rent this dress again!

Little black dress with some gold flare!
I loved this dress. It was perfect for a late fall wedding, and I paired with some black tights as I thought it might be a little short (though I probably could have gone without the tights). I forgot to get a picture, but I received great compliments and I found it to be really flattering.

Seriously stunning!!
Oh my goodness this dress!!! It ran a little long...I'm 5'6"-ish and without tall wedges I would have been tripping on it. BUT even if it had been too long I would have worn it because the print was stunning, the cut was so flattering, and I received so many compliments. I have rented quite a few RTR dresses this is my absolute fav!

Easy, comfortable and stylish!
Great dress! I was a little nervous because my backup size (12) wasn't available, but the 10 ended up fitting perfectly. The top is a little sparkly so I was worried it was a little too formal for a casual mountain-y wedding, but it ended up working great and I received so many compliments. I was able to go bra-less, and the cut was really flattering. Highly recommend!

Loved this necklace; it was sparkly but not overly so. Super comfy and I thought it was a great accent to my outfit (also an RTR rental).

This necklace was gorgeous. It added some sparkle but wasn't overwhelming or too big. It was a great compliment to a bright dress.

"You look like Belle!"
I was excited to wear this dress for a more formal wedding but was a little unsure of the bright yellow color. Let me tell you: I have never had so many compliments on a dress! I felt more and more confident as the night went on; three different people said I looked like Belle from Beauty and the Beast. :) If you want attention and compliments, this is totally the dress for you. The texture of the dress is super fun, as is the high low cut of the hem. It was a little wrinkled when it arrived but after hanging it up for a day and steaming it a little it wasn't noticeable. I didn't need to wear a bra since the structure of the dress offers quite a bit of support. By the end of the night the boning in the dress was bugging me a bit, but it was worth it. Totally recommend (but know that you'll stand out!).

Perfect for a wedding on a hot day!
I was a little worried that the loose shape of this dress would make it a little mumu-ish, but it was actually super flattering! I loved the unique hemline and I don't think I've ever been more comfortable at a wedding (especially since the ceremony was outdoors in 90+ degree weather). I paired it with gold strappy wedges and received some great compliments. I usually wear a 12 when dresses are tight in the bust/waist area, but for this dress I wore the 10 and almost wish I had sized down to an 8. Great unique summer dress!

Gorgeous dress!
This dress was flattering and perfect for the wedding I attended. The V in the front is pretty deep so keep that in mind if you're particularly busty. Both the 10 and the 12 fit alright because the material has some give to it, but I went with the 12 so it would be a little longer (e.g. less risk of flashing my spanx while dancing). The material is pretty flattering because of the pattern. Great dress!

Received lots of compliments!
While I loved the material, I almost didn't wear this dress. The dress poofs out a bit at the waist, and I thought it made my spare tire/hips look bigger instead of slimming them. I ended up wearing it and am happy I did, as I received lots of compliments! The dress was pretty tight in the bust area, so very chesty ladies: be prepared to show some cleavage! The material is pretty heavy, which was great for a winter wedding, and there are nice pockets as well. I don't think the pic on the model shows it well, but the dress has noticeable gold spots, not black or silver as I had thought. I took a close up picture to highlight that a bit better. Overall, a cute option for a wedding or party!

Received lots of compliments!
I wore this for our rehearsal dinner with a statement necklace and gold shoes. I rented the 10 and the 12...the 10 was a little tight in the bust but the 12 didn't really fit so I went with the smaller option. Note: this dress is pretty poofy; there is a lot of material in the skirt! When I tried it on initially I wasn't a huge fan, but it grew on me and now I'm renting it again for another post-wedding reception. Also it has pockets, which I love in dresses, and the detailing is so pretty (you can't tell on the model, but the silvery imprint pattern is a really neat detail). I received a ton of compliments!

Pretty
Loved these; they weren't too heavy and I loved the way they complimented my coral/orange dress. I should have worn my hair up, however, as I think they were hard to see with my dark hair down. Still would recommend though!

Loved the color
I received a ton of compliments and LOVED that it had pockets. The color was gorgeous, also. It ended up being a bit shorter than I would have liked...fine when I was standing but I kept pulling at it when I was sitting. Great summer wedding dress though!

Super fun party dress! And POCKETS!
I wore this dress for my bachelorette party. I wanted something that was fun but more on the side of a sun dress instead of your typical bachelorette dress. This dress was perfect! It was comfortable and flattering. I had so much fun that I forgot to take a picture of the dress, so the one attached isn't the best. I normally go between a 10 and a 12, but for this dress I probably could have worn the 8 as I had some room in the chest area. I would totally rent this again.

Great, versatile dress
This was my backup dress and while it was beautiful, I didn't end up wearing it. I thought the material might be a little more jersey-like so it ended up being a bit more formal than what I needed, but I would definitely consider renting again. It definitely shows off the goods, so if you're hoping for some cleavage, this is the dress to rent!

Loved it, but not for me.
I loved all the photos of ladies in this dress, but the cut of it just wasn't flattering on me. I feel like it was too short and accentuated my tummy, which is a trouble spot for me. I ended up not wearing it, but a girlfriend of mine ended up wearing the same dress to the same party so it worked out (and she looked great!).

Cute and comfortable
I picked this dress for our engagement party. It was perfect for a casual party where I wanted to look nice; not super dressy but very pretty. The blue ombre is lovely, and the material is very comfortable. The dress was a little thinner than I had imagined, so--if I had planned properly--I would have worn a camisole or a light tank underneath the dress since the outline of my bra showed a bit. Definitely cute though!

Gorgeous earrings, provided the perfect pop of color paired with a LBD. Loved them so much I ordered the same earrings in a different color for a wedding I'm attending in a few weeks! I wore them for 6ish hours and didn't think they felt too heavy.

Great dress for a sparkly bachelorette party!
This dress was super comfortable and versatile. I wore it for my best friend's bachelorette party, which had a "sparkle" theme. I ordered the 8 and the 10; I could have worn the 10, but the 8 fit better in the chest area. The zipper was a pain to get up, but I was happy the dress could be worn with a regular bra. Fun to dress up with bright jewelry (I also rented some kate spade earrings) and shoes! The only con was that--while it definitely can be flattering on many figures--I thought it accentuated my hips a little bit more than I would have liked.
