YES to this jacket
I needed something in between light fall jackets and long winter coats - this was perfect! Wore it every day for a month. VERY warm and I also got compliments on it since it looked so good.

Flattering and fun
I really enjoyed this dress - the fit was flattering and I was able to wear it a few different ways. Bare legged with white sneakers or ballet flats, or with tights and boots. I almost bought it!

Most-worn item of 2025
I think this dress was my most-worn item of 2025. I wore it to lunch, out to dinner, to a friend's gathering, to a memorial service, to church, to a meeting, to a happy hour, and more. I reached for it almost every time I needed something to wear. Loved it and the fit was great with some ruching that was flattering. Also, it doesn't wrinkle, so I could put it in a bag and take it with me to change elsewhere when needed. Somehow, I only have partial or group photos in the dress, though!

Huge - didn't wear it
So, this was huge (even in an XS-S size) and it just looked too bulky and big on me. I did not end up wearing it.

Rented in the spring for Easter, then again on the edge of fall
I have thought about this dress for months since I rented it for Easter. So when I finally got my hands on it again, I was SO excited. Wore it to a neighborhood happy hour, to dinner, and also to a horse race paired with a blue jacket and headband. Fits wonderfully, tons of compliments from random strangers. It wrinkles easily though - all my steaming was useless after a 1-hour car ride.

May have been my most-worn RTR dress!
I am obsessed with this dress, I'd buy it if it weren't quite so pricey. I think I have worn this more than any other dress from RTR. I wore it to lunch, to dinner, to a symphony concert, to work backstage at a symphony concert, to book club, to meet friends, to so many things. I found myself reaching for it as the perfect thing to wear on a fall day. Fit great, love the high-low cut to the dress. Thin material, can be dressy or not. I always wore it open at the collar. SO many compliments. I did wear it a lot before realizing I needed to button the sleeves!

I wanted to love this dress, but I couldn't wear it
I loved the idea of this dress and put it own several times, but couldn't wear it out of the house. The tiny snaps that hold the body of the dress at the torso would just pop right open with slight movement as I got ready to go. I was afraid of a wardrobe malfunction, so I never did wear it.

Nice material
This was a pretty dress that I wore on the cusp before summer turned into fall weather. I loved the tie detail at the front - added a bit of interest rather than just a button-down dress. It was a tad large, I could have probably sized down since I like things more fitted.

Loved it - thick material for winter
I loved this dress, wore it 2-3 times. Once out to dinner, once to work a symphony orchestra concert. It was professional and classic - a nice, thick material that was good for fall. Could be paired with a jacket for a bit of warmth.

Ran so small I could not wear it.
I wanted to love this, it even had tags on it - super cute dress! But it ran so small that it was nowhere close to zipping up.

This was super cute - not too casual and not too dressy. I wore it to brunch and also a couple other times. Just ordered it a size smaller since i'm between sizes.

A bit tight/odd fit
I had rented the dress that is the same material and pattern and LOVED it, so I got the shirt. I actually didn't end up wearing it out of the house since it was very tight and uncomfortable. The bust area was tight once it was zipped.

Boxy, cute, big sleeves - cute overall
I really liked this - it had a cute, unique style. It just suddenly turned warmer/springtime or I would have worn it a few more times. It's very warm, and the sleeves are huge. Gave it a cute style, but be careful when reaching for things! I probably could have sized down, it was roomy.

I loved this jacket - just rented it too far towards spring for it to be as useful as it could be. Very cute cut/fit and the material is nice. Very warm. Would rent again if they have it in the future.

Fit was unimpressive, material is nice.
Wore it once, it was just okay. The material is nice and the color is pretty, but the fit didn't do much for me (I'm athletic and have hips/chest). It was a smidge tight in the bust so the buttons gaped, and then the waist and hip area was very large. I think if you don't haev a large chest it would be better.

I loved this dress so much I bought it - fit perfectly, very flattering. I'm a 6/8 in dresses and bought the 8. I can imagine getting a lot of use out of it this spring/summer.

Cute but short!
Cute dress, short though. I have a chest so it was hard to figure out how to get it to lay nicely on me, and also it was pretty short.

A bit small and stiff
I didn't end up wearing this out - I wanted to love it but it was a bit stiff/severe looking and I felt kind of uncomfortable with the tight/stiff fit, so I didn't feel confident in it.

Cute summer dress
This was cute but unfortunately I ordered it too early - it got chilly so I only wore it once. Put a denim jacket over and wore nice white sneakers. Would rent again for a casual summer dress. Material is fairly thin.

This was comfortable, the perfect length, and interesting for a gray sweater with its asymmetrical neckline. It did show a bra strap though.

Lots of compliments!
I got a lot of compliments on this dress with the red/burgundy accent color. The sleeves flare out so just be aware when you're out to eat or something where you're reaching your hand/arm out! Very flattering cut and it was so unique.

Very cute
I really liked this sweater/top! It runs a little short, but that worked with higher-rise jeans or leggings. It was a tad on the scratchy side so a cami underneath helps.

Just okay, nice and light fabric
This was okay - I wore it on a Zoom but never chose to wear it out of the house so I returned. The material is nice and light/thin, which I liked, but it wasn't anything special.

I liked this - wore it a couple of times. Nice looking casual sweater. The material was a bit scratchy so I advise a camisole underneath.
