Spot on! Retro black and white dress makes you feel like a queen
I wore this for two different occasions - a wedding and also a work event. This dress is so classy and comfortable. The pictures don't do it justice! I was thrilled with this dress, received many compliments and will most definitely rent again! Winner!

Spring love
Another fun print by Kate Spade! Cute, flirty and stylish this is a lovely Spring dress I wore to work. Can be a little short on the length side but I was able to make it work. Very flattering!! Material is lightweight and comfortable. Two ties in front but don't show much cleavage. Great rental!

"Match" made in heaven ;)
This is such a fun dress with a match stick print. It's flirty and cute and a great length for work (I wore this for a big meeting). I was on stage for a presentation and also wore this to a dinner that evening. I am 18 months postpartum and still have a little tummy but used some spanks to even everything out. The back zips up and has a cute red tab attached to the zipper. This dress is a light lavender and not super tight - will rent again! Thanks Kate Spade for something different, sweet, sexy and comfortable! Another reason I love this designer.

Gorgeous pattern, beautiful ruffles and very flattering for all sorts of different environments!
This dress was one of my RTR all time favs. The ruffles are so flattering and this dress is such a nice weight - I paired with leggings and boots on a cool Spring day in Boston. This dress has a gorgeous beautiful blue pattern and can be suited for multiple different events. I wore this 3 times - work, out to dinner on the weekend and an after work event. Highly recommend! It may need a camisole underneath in order to not show too much cleavage. Only small con is the little pieces of fabric on the sleeves - these got a little annoying but I tied them and tucked under each sleeve. This dress is a great one overall!

Beautiful jewel tone dress. Work stunner.
I had an important awareness day at work where the theme was purple and I was presenting in front of 200 people. this dress was perfect. I wore it in May in Boston on a 60 degree day and it was a bit warm as the fabric is on the heavier side so this dress may be best suited for colder months. I did wear spanks under it to suck in my postpartum belly. loved the way it hugged my curves and I did get lots of compliments. Definitely perfectly suited for work. It was a bit on the longer side having the hem land beneath my knee but overall 4 stars for a beautiful rich jewel tone and being very flattering for a curvy girl! I did not feel at all like Barney even though it was that shade of purple. The black accents on the side really accentuate curves!

Extremely small
This dress runs extremely small - I could barely fit it over my shoulders. Was also very short. Great for a club not so good for the office.

Surprise - it's a romper!
I got this dress and was so confused when I went to put it on - it is actually a romper! I wore this on vacation as it is very short - adorable, bright print and beautiful fit but wish it was a bit longer. This would not be appropriate for the office which was a bit of a bummer. Overall if you're looking for a fun and comfortable vacation outfit, you've found it! ;)

Beautiful vibrant print but arms too small
Loved the bright vibrant floral print of this dress. The ruffle detail was also very pretty. In fact I loved everything about this dress except the arms were way too small and cut into my biceps all day. If this had been more comfortable I likely would have considered buying.

Just ok
Runs small. Kind of felt like a flight attendant or wait server in it. Was just ok

Amazing!
I ended up wearing this dress multiple times - once for a work dinner with a client, once for date night with my hubs and then a third time for getting a headshot at work. I cannot say enough good things about this dress. It's comfortable and incredibly flattering. I received sooooo many compliments on it and felt so good about myself! I had a baby 15 months ago and my body is no where near where it once was but this dress gave me a confidence boost and made me feel beautiful.

Beautiful
This sweater was so beautiful. Such a fun color and brought some brightness to a gray winter day. You have to wear a camisole under it and the sleeves have small holes in them so it isn't the warmest but really liked this one. Definitely a nice winter pick! I wore multiple times and got tons of compliments.

Nice material and style
I liked this sweater and the material was certainly high quality but it was quite short and seemed to ride up. The sleeves were fun with the ruffles and loved the wine color but just wish it was a bit longer.

So beautifully made
This sweater was so beautifully made and comfortable. The sleeves are ruffled and provide a nice twist on a traditional sweater. It was hard to fit under a winter coat but I wore this sweater multiple times and will rent again for sure! Highly recommend.

Nice find but doesn't stand out
This dress was comfortable and fit great but wasn't my favorite. The print is a plaid with navy stripes (I thought they were black) and just seemed like something you would see anywhere. It wasn't a "stand out" dress by any means but it did have a nice fit. I sat through 6 hours of meetings and it was quite comfortable but not sure I'll rent again since it wasn't very unique.

Amazing dress!
I got this for a work event where I was going from an all day conference to an awards dinner. I wore it in Boston in February and while it wasn't super warm I paired with leggings and it was fine. I got SO many compliments on this dress and it made me feel so good! Def a bit of sunshine and spring on a cold winter day. The sleeves were quite long and tough to wash your hands after using the bathroom but that would be my only little con. I will rent this one again!

Made me feel like a million bucks!
I wore this to a work conference in Maine and was blown away by how comfortable this dress was along with being a stunner! I felt like a million bucks in this! It hugged in all the right places and had nice detail with the blue on the ruffled sleeves and bottom of the skirt. I love anything with ruffles and this dress made me feel feminine but classy. Highly highly recommend! It was also super comfortable!

Weird fit
This dress had a funny fit to it and was not very flattering. I ended up returning and not wearing.
