Classic top
This top was ok - nothing special but a chic top to have for work. It fit fine, but it you are looking for a bit more room I would recommend sizing up.

Fun, flirty top!
This top fit so well and is cute tucked in the front or untucked. I have a short torso and didn't find it overwhelmingly large or long for the medium size I wore. Would rent again for sure or buy.

Nice and flowy top
I always size up in tops but found this one to be very large and should have sized down. Worked out fine tucked into pants or else I would have been swimming in it untucked.

perfect fall staple!
Loved it for fall and thought about buying it - but decided to rent in a different color. Great blazer for work or can be casual with jeans.

Comfortable and flattering wrap dress
I wore this for engagement photos and it was a last minute addition to my RTR bag. It is comfortable, lightweight, and flattering. I used fashion tape in the bust, however it worked great. Flows beautifully in the wind.

I would recommend sizing up, especially if you have a larger chest. The medium was not comfortable or flattering for me.

Fun romper but not easy to wear
I liked this romper but getting in and out of it wasn't easy. The back zipper gets stuck. Perhaps consider sizing 2 up if you're on the bustier side.

Favorite RTR Top
Love this top! Will absolutely rent again or consider purchasing. I usually size up to 10 in most RTR pieces and the 10 fit perfectly.

Work Top
Loved this top for work and found it flattering. No need to wear a tank underneath. If you have a bit of a larger chest, may recommend sizing up; however I was ok with the medium (36D).

Low Cut Top
This top is really fun. I sized up based on reviews of arm tightness. I feared with sizing up it may appear too boxy but it was totally fine. It is very low cut, but perfect for a night out.

Dress for any season
I've worn this dress to a March wedding with tights, and to a very humid September wedding. Worked out great both times! It rubbed a bit in the armpit section after a night of dancing, but otherwise very comfortable. I didn't need to wear a bra (36D).

This jacket didn't disappoint! I was worried about sizing and looking too boxy, but that wasn't the case at all. Medium worked out perfectly and I'm a 36D

This top is great - I've worn it in the pink-ish color also. It's a bit on the shorter side so may be better for a smaller torso.

It looks far more fabulous in the photo. Very pilled and very below average. Looks like something you can purchase at Forever 21.

Loved this jumpsuit! Would highly recommend. I liked that it's cropped at the bottom and it is VERY comfortable! I included pictures of it pinned in the chest and not pinned. Unfortunately I totally forgot to wear the belt.

Perfect LBD for winter birthday
I loved this dress and will wear it again. Although the medium fit, I sized up because it felt better across shoulders, chest. I'm only 5'3 and it was short on me but perfect if paired with tights and booties. Although this dress is loose fitting, it still looks great on and gives good shape.

fun party dress
This dress is very short and there is no hook in the back for the zipper closure. My friend had to add a pin for me. Otherwise, it's a fun party dress. I did not need to wear a bra. I had to size up.

fun party dress
I honestly can't remember if I wore the 8 or 10 as I wore it back in February and just now reviewing it. I thought the dress was fun and flattering. If you're short waisted, just be careful with the cutout - if you wear tights, you really can't wear control top as they come up over the cutout. The dress is pretty short and I'm only 5'3". I was going to wear this for a wedding but glad I didn't as I didn't think it was really wedding appropriate.

LBD with a twist
Great for a winter wedding - I did get rather hot though from dancing quite a bit. Very flattering! I had to size up to a 10 - I usually wear a 6 or 8, however with most RTR rentals I've sized up. I did not need to wear a bra. Sorry I don't have any photos as this wedding was last year and I'm just now reviewing!

very flattering and comfortable
I wore this to a rehearsal dinner...so flattering! I didn't need a bra. I did need help with the back closures, so you will likely need a bathroom buddy. I would absolutely rent this again. I usually wear between a size 6 and 8, but wore a size 10. I'd say this runs small but then again I typically have to size up in most RTR rentals. I'm 5'3" and the "regular" was perfect (I wore about 3.5/4 inch heels).

Amazing! I wish I owned this dress!
I can't say enough fabulous things about this dress. This dress was my 5th rental and my absolute favorite thus far. It is perfect for a winter wedding/party. It is so classy and fits like a glove. It is incredibly flattering and I received so many compliments. I wear a D+ cup and didn't need a bra. There is a corset in the dress which might take some people a little getting used to but it's actually not bad at all and helps give you perfect posture. Some people made comments about the sleeves and chest area being uncomfortable but that was not the case for me. I would recommend sizing up for your backup size considering the dress is lace.

fun party dress
I honestly was expecting a tighter fit, however the small was too tight and the medium wasn't tight enough. Also, the stitching was out in one of the panels in the medium size which was disappointing. The dress seemed a bit weathered. This was definitely a dress out of my comfort zone but I was in the mood to take a risk. Although this wasn't my favorite RTR dress fit, others complimented me on the sexy style. Considering my D+ bust size, I did not need a bra with this dress and it fit quite well in the bust region. I would absolutely give another Herve Leger dress a try again.

I paired these earrings with the Mark & James by Badgley Mischka - Banana Pepper Dress. This was the only accessory I needed for jewelry to complete my look. At first the earrings may seem heavy, but once on for a minute they honestly didn't bother my ears at all.

Perfect for an outdoor wedding
When I first tried this dress on I was a little disappointed but then it REALLY grew on me! I wore this dress to an outdoor wedding. It was extremely HOT but the dress was perfect. It is cool, comfortable, and elegant and the additional lining under it prevented any undesirable sweat marks from coming through. It had more material in the bust area than I desired, but otherwise it is very flattering. You need to be careful with your bra straps because they can show if the straps aren't tight enough. My backup size (size 6) was a bit worn on the seat of the dress. I also wore the Kendra Scott - Deva Emerald Earrings which I loved.

classy and flattering
I didn't end up wearing this dress because the overall fit was a little big and I fell in love with my back up dress that was more appropriate for the occasion. I did love this dress but they didn't have it in a small when I ordered it, which would have worked better. I would definitely consider renting this dress in the future in a small. This dress seems to be quite popular and felt a little too loved.

I wore this dress to my 26th birthday party. Super flattering!
This was actually my backup dress, but once I slipped it on I didn't want to take it off. Very flattering and shows off your waist nicely. Short/perfect party dress. I wore it with tights. The neckline is also very flattering and not too revealing, yet sexy.
