Loved this dress. Fit perfectly and could be worn with a jacket or without because of the sleeves

Love this Dress!
Had to wear a little cashmere sweater because I don't like my arms showing, and strapless bra. Received many compliments and very comfortable to wear. Would have kept it had it had pockets.

Nice weight dress
Wore this in the summer and would have bought if it had pockets. Had to wear a jacket with it since I don't carry a purse anymore. But a nice dress.

Pretty with nice lace details
Loved wearing this dress and wore it on vacation a lot when I was driving in a car and could carry a purse. Some what short waisted, but then I'm long waisted. If it had had pockets I would have purchased it because I loved wearing it.

Never wore this because the zipper popped open when I tried it on. Should have ordered one size larger.

Lining can peak out
I enjoyed wearing this dress with a shrug, but the lining kept peaking out and it was difficult to hide the bra.

Loved this flirty dress
Almost bought this dress, but I don't have many fancy places to wear it, so didn't. It was fun and made me feel young and flirty!. Wore it with a black shrug to the theater in NYC and to husband's evening work event. Would have purchased if it had pockets.

Love the print
It was difficult to hid the bra, even my strapless one, but I managed. Dress is snug, so be careful what you order. I'm a 14 and ordered a 14, but couldn't have fit in a 12. Wish it had pockets

Feminine!
This dress has extra fabric at the hips, so be forewarned. I enjoyed wearing it because there is an extra swish when you walk--feminine and lovely. I'm losing weight and went from a 16 to a 14 while I had this and the XL was fine, not too baggy. Would have bought if it had pockets.

Loved wearing the leather
First time with a leather garment and loved it. Especially loved the pockets. Would have bought it except that I'm long waisted and this is a bit short waisted. I have lost a lot of weight and am between a 12 and 16 and the 14 was a perfect fit.

Unattractive
This is this most unattractive dress I've tried on all year. It runs small but even in a size too small the sleeves are huge. I felt swathed in huge fabric in all the wrong places. Really wanted to love this dress.

Lots of fabric
The elastic in the waist area can really accent a tummy, if you are long waisted as I am. Didn't wear it because it was unattractive on me.

Very long and clingy
I'm 5'10" and mine almost touched the ground, so this is a full length, not midi. The print is lovely and interesting, but the fabric is thin--which is great for spring, but it is very clingy. Even with foundation in the tummy area, every bulge shows. So if you are thin it is a terrific dress, if you have something to hide you may want to chose something else.

Loved Dress
I'm a fall so the coloring was terrific on me. Wore it several times with an olive green jacket. Didn't purchase it because I'm long waisted and it didn't sit at the right place for me, but few dresses with waists in them do. May rent again.

Loved the Color contrast
I really liked the way the design looked across the bust. But my legs aren't terrific now and the slit was high on the thigh--parts I shouldn't be showing at my age. For a younger woman this is a terrific dress. I rented something similar, but without the slit in my next shipment.

Loved it
Although not a color in my usual color palette, I got so many compliments on this dress. It is low cut and cut out along the shoulders so had to wear a strapless bra. I'm losing weight, so rented the next smaller size in my next shipment to hopefully buy that one.

Notice all the gathers before selecting
This was so unattractive on my that my husband laughed out loud when I modeled it for him. The gathers at each level pull in because there is elastic in them and it is very unflattering. I NEVER wore it.

Got lots of compliments
When I wore this dress I got lots of compliments. I probably would have kept it, but it is end of season, and I am continuing to lose weight so think it will be too large for me next summer. Loved wearing this dress and took it with me on two road trips.

Size 16 too small and note it is only the top
I thought I was renting a dress so was surprized to see it was just the top. I would have worn it with black trousers but the size 16 was too small to get into. I have been losing weight, and other size 16s fit me, but this was way too small.

RTR seems designed for young women
I like having choices for new things, but so many of the pieces are too low cut or too short for work. Also, most don't have pockets. I don't carry a purse anymore and really need pockets, which I have in my purchased wardrobe. Also, many of the pieces I like are not available or not in a large enough size. May not continue membership, but will try for another month or so.
