Cupcake chic
Perfect frilly birthday dress. Sized up and fit was perfect (there is no stretch). So glad I chose this as it's something I'd never buy but was so much fun to wear!

Beautiful but weird fit
This dress would be gorgeous if you have a VERY long torso/are very tall. Sizing up as per other recs, the rest of the dress fit great but was fully 3 inches too long in the torso for me. Too bad because it is beautiful and tres chic!

Too heavy for summer
Would be better for fall. Also, dress was not in great condition, with wear to the zipper.

Great but size down
Loved wearing this dress - both to a work function and a housewarming brunch. Can be dressed up or down. Small looked good but I'd go with an XS next time.

Not as bright in person
Has a duller, more vintage-y feel in person, but still a nice look for work. I have a disproportionately large waist and the 42 fit well - glad I sized up since there is no stretch.

Cute but polyester
I've been wanting to rent this dress for weeks - great look and easy fit, just have to take off a star because it's polyester - would be so much better for summer in cotton.

Beats the heat
Wore to a bachelorette party on a super hot day in NYC & hit just the right note. Print is better in person than in the RTR photos. S fit me perfectly at 5'6" but I don't think it would've worked if I was much taller - wouldn't recommend if you are over 5'7". I haven't been able to bring myself to send it back yet - love it!

Weird fit
Too big on top, too small on bottom. Liked the pleated half of the dress better than the non-pleated half. Might work better for someone taller?

Husband-approved
My husband rarely even notices what I'm wearing and he complimented me on this dress twice when I wore it to a fancy lunch. Super lux, chic, and ladylike. I sized up for length so I could wear it to work, and plan to keep it a bit longer and do so. Great pick, dresses like this are why I subscribe to unlimited.

This dress just didn't fit me quite right - I would say it runs true to size it just hit me wrong. Think it may work better for curvier bodies.

Beachy & cool
I wore this dress for a girls weekend in Montauk and it allowed me to eat a crapload of seafood and still feel fabulous. Will definitely rent again.

Runs super small and short
Runs way smaller than the other Red Valentino dresses I've rented - even if I had sized up though, I think it would've been too short for me even in flats.

Great for preppy black tie
This was just the thing for a wedding at the Harvard Club. Great pattern, great fit, only reason I gave it 4 stars is it was really hard to get out the wrinkles! Tried both steaming and ironing. Luckily the fit and weight of the dress minimized their appearance everywhere but the bottom.

I ended up wearing the other dress as it was better for the event, but I'll definitely rent this again in the future. High-quality and great fit.

Pretty & patriotic
This dress was perfect for Memorial Day Weekend. Fit is similar to other Milly dresses, which I find to run a bit small. One size up was perfect. This is the kind of dress that makes me so happy I have unlimited - really occasion-specific and I wouldn't want to buy it, but ideal for the event!

Cool but uncomfortable
Loved the look of this necklace, but it was a bit heavy for my taste. Also a bit difficult to get it to lie flat. That being said, would rent again for specific occasions rather than everyday wear, as it's quite an eye-catching piece.

A+ bag for sightseeing
I rented this for my recent trip to Japan and it was absolutely perfect. While it would be too small for work/everyday in my opinion, for vacation it was ideal. The pastel yellow is beautiful in person and hit just the right note for spring sightseeing.

Too short
As usual in my experience with RT, this top runs quite small. I sized up, but even still, the length was too short - not short enough to be a crop top, just short enough to look too short. Too bad, as the print & color are lovely. If you're petit it would look great!

Better in person than photos!
I grabbed this via unlimited on a whim and I liked it way better than I thought I would - this dress is really quite chic and a great color. It's a true shift dress, and the ruffle comes off as modern rather than girly, which was a pleasant surprise. I sized up for length as I was renting it for work and was glad I did, but would order my regular size to wear for another event.

Chic + versatile
Great fit for straight & narrow body types - 40 fit perfectly. Style goes easily from day to night - wore to work, recruiting event, and out for the evening & felt perfectly dressed at each. Will definitely rent again.

Large but not THAT large
I rented this in a 0 because it was the only size available, and, while it fit, it was just a bit too snug and short, and just wouldn't have been very comfortable to wear. It is absolutely adorable though and I can't wait until it's free in size 40 for me! I'd recommend going for your normal size in this unless you're in between, in which case do size down.

Love the style, ok fit
Wore to work and a concert at Carnegie Hall. I loved the style and fabric of this dress, but I think the fit would be better for a curvier figure. I sized up to make sure it would be work appropriate, and the waist fit well but the chest was enormous. I'd rent again, but trying the 40.

Cute cut but light color is gray not white
Received brand new with tags; perfect condition. This dress has the advantage of being really wrinkle-resistant. I sized up and wore it over a blank turtleneck and tights to make it work-appropriate, and enjoyed wearing it despite feeling that it was a bit more fall than spring.

Five-star shape, three-star fabric
Obsessed with the cut of this coat, but the fabric is just okay--maybe b/c of too many dry cleanings. I loved wearing this coat nonetheless and would rent again. Was glad I sized down as the XS was still plenty roomy, even given that it's supposed to be boxy.

Made my day
This dress was a ray of sunshine on a tough day at the office. The fabric is gorgeous & the design is awesome--these are Anne-of-Green-Gables-worthy puffed sleeves. I rented the 42 as the 40 was unavailable and, while it was on the large side as expected, was pleasantly surprised by the fit and would actually go for the same size again.

Minimal yet interesting - great piece. Sized up to ensure it would drape well & be work-appropriate, and I'm glad I did, since I found this dress to be larger on top than on bottom. Arrived new with tags in perfect condition. Loved it!

Beautiful leather but weird collar
I sized up in this thinking it would run small--and it did. The 38 fit me perfectly. I liked everything about the style except for the collar --it is elongated & you really can't wear it popped.

Effortless
On the bigger side, but supposed to be a loose fit so I'm calling it true to size; if you're in between, definitely size down. The material is gorgeous & looks very expensive. I absolutely loved wearing this to work - it was fun, springy, comfortable, and conservative.

Comfortable yet polished for work. Would have worn it on the weekend too but it got too warm - I will rent this again if the temp drops!

Great color; interesting design
Standout piece - kept if for two weeks & wore several times. Fit is true to size. This is more of a light jacket than a blazer - I was expecting to wear it all day but ended up using it mainly as outerwear.

A little short for work, but wore it anyway
Nice dress - great color & good quality, but a LEEETLE short for work so I wouldn't rent again. Plan on using a safety pin to keep the top snapped up.

Great style but worn & damaged
This is an AWESOME bangle, but it looked so beat up by the time I got it...RTR should really retire/replace this one. I get why they're hesitant to though - the design is really cool - simple yet interesting.

Sparkly material was a no-go
I didn't end up wearing this for two reasons--first, as other reviewers mentioned, because the black fabric is sparkly (much can more so than in photos), and second, because I found it unflattering. Fabric has plenty of stretch and I think it might look better on someone with curves.

WHOA--Bravo, MSGM
This dress is a spectacular paradox--the mix of the structured shape with the organic pattern is simple yet interesting, unusual yet classic, and conservative yet attention-grabbing. It's totally appropriate for work (& looks fantastic over a black turtleneck), but is also a total showstopper that could be dressed way up due to the exquisite fabric. For me, this dress was true to size; if you're often in between I'd size down. For a straight figure, it's insanely flattering, but I can see how it might not be as great a cut for curves. In short, I'm obsessed with this dress and plan to rent it on the regular.

5 star even though I couldn't wear it
This is a phenomenal piece and looked fantastic, but I decided not to wear it because it was too tight for comfort. I will definitely be renting this again in a size 4 and can't wait to wear it!

Adorable but unforgiving up top
Loved this for my trip to Miami, but wish it would've been available in a 42--I'm normally a size 2 & quite small-chested and I could barely breathe in this. Didn't detract from the look of it (very flattering & fun print) but was just uncomfortable. Note it's not quite as bright in person as in the photos (really photographs beautifully)--I'm not sure if this is due to the dress itself or if it's just coming to the end of its life & over-drycleaned.
