Best dress I've ever rented
Upon receipt of these dresses, I was immediately enthralled by how vibrant the pink color appeared - photos do not do it justice. While both the 8 and the 10 fit comfortably at the natural waist, the chest was too loose on the 10, so I chose to wear the 8 for the additional support. I received compliments all night and was able to dance/eat comfortably with the flowing fabric. Wish I could buy one in every color!

This dress clung to me in the wrong places - but was still very beautiful. Ended up not wearing it.
This dress was fun and short, and I loved the sparkles. If I had worn some spanx maybe it would have looked a little better on me, but I had rented it for my bachelorette party and I needed to feel as fabulous as possible.

I wore this to my rehearsal dinner! It really stood out and made me feel sexy.
The fabric had the perfect amount of stretch! I'm not particularly tall, but this dress came just below my knee which made it feel a little more modest. It was pretty low cut, and the two lace bits which cover the chest were a bit flappy so I had to tape them down. I would absolutely rent this dress again!

Actually gave some lift - but doesn't feel great peeling off.
I bought these sticky-bra options for a strapless dress that I'd rented off RTR - the back came down a bit low, and this was a cost-friendly option I'd decided to try. It came with a bunch in a pack (which was good, because it took some practicing while learning how to place it). However, once you peel off the sticker (either because you're attempting to readjust or its folded on itself), the amount of adhesion REALLY goes away. Also, you have to realize that this is like pulling a band-aid off your breasts - except its huge. It doesn't feel great, but it was worth the 3 seconds of pain for how great they looked under the dress. I'm not going to provide a picture, because it looks exactly how you'd anticipate taped-up breasts to look like.
Best moment: when I saw myself in the photographer's pictures and thought "wow, good choice"
Formal enough to wear to a wedding, comfy enough to wear all night. Good amount of stretch to the fabric. Wear spanx if you're self-conscious about a belly. Con: if you have large hips like me, it can ride up if you're walking a lot. Also, need a lower-set bra for the back. VERY flattering for curves. Also, interesting to squeeze into, the zipper is very confusing. But once in it, you look fabulous.

The best compliment I received was "you look like Caribbean Barbie!" Made my night.
I have honestly never felt more beautiful than when I got to wear this dress. I wore it to a wedding this past weekend. I usually run around a size 10, so I ordered a 10 and a 12 (just in case my pre-wedding diet didn't work, but it did). I ended up wearing the 10 and having it be a little big on me. The rouching is extremely forgiving for any lumps and bumps, and the color made me the center of attention. Definitely, definitely would rent this again.

Gorgeous Color, Good fit
The reason I think this dress looked great on me is that I'm short - If I had been any taller, I could imagine it being a disaster. Its shorter than it looks on the model. Its a good dress for pear-shapes, the tulip hem allows for a little more room in the hips. I got TONS of compliments on the color - but I did invest in a solid spray tan coating ahead of time so my skin tone could hold up next to it. It is very tight in the bust, so I didn't need to wear a bra. I would definitely rent this dress again if all my friends hadn't already seen me in it!
