Would have loved to wear this!
Absolutely stunning dress. Unfortunately it was too tight throughout my hips and chest to wear.

Comfy & Bold
This was the only size available to rent and it was a bit big but worked fine for my purposes, which was fancy dinner out for Thanksgiving. There is some extra material/draping which could make for a strange fit but overall I really liked it.

Showstopper!
I loved this dress. I could have gone with the smaller size but it was not available. Great stretch and the shape/structure/material helps you look good in all the right places.

Fun and cheerful, plus comfy!
Loved wearing this dress! It received a ton of compliments. I am usually a size 12 but the 10 was fine as it has a baggier fit. I rented it for my niece's 1st birthday and it was the perfect, fun dress for such an occasion. I was very excited to see it available to rent on unlimited!!!!

The ultimate comfy summer dress
Perfect for summer days, both on weekends and at work. I added an olive blazer for the office. I loved the overall fit and found it to be super comfy even on a hot, humid summer day. It 'runs large' but I think that's just the style. I absolutely loved this dress!

Flattering fit, perfect for short girls
I rented this dress for my birthday, going to NYC to see a Broadway matinee. I loved the material and the pattern, very classic and cool. The fit was wonderful. It was quite flattering, even with a strapless bra. I went with the 12 for a little more comfort in my large chest. The length was great since I am only 5'4'' - it started raining in the city and since it wasn't a full maxi length, the beautiful dress didn't get ruined along the wet sidewalks. All in all, a really fabulous rental! I may end up renting it again in the future just to get some more use and photos out of it!

I like big bows and I cannot lie
As the other reviews said, no bra required with this thick fabric. I loveddddd the back.... Obsessed with this bow. The color popped and the cut was so flattering. I did have to do a little safety pinning to get the top adjusted perfectly but it was no problem. Overall LOVED this dress. It was amazing.

Beautiful lace & super comfy
I'm only 5'4'' so it was a bit long on me. If it were warmer I would have worn wedges, but I wore flat boots and a cardigan to complete the look. I got many compliments on this dress and it was great for a bridal shower at a winery! I absolutely loved the blue color and the lace.

This was the perfect standout accessory to complete my bridal shower look. It was so sparkly and amazing! I had wanted to rent this piece previously but RTR had to send a replacement for it. I'm so happy I was able to wear it this time! I received a ton of compliments and absolutely loved this necklace!

SIZE DOWN! Stunning Princess Dress
As someone who usually has trouble zipping dresses up due to a large chest, I didn't listen to other reviews that said to size down. I figured I'd be able to fill out the top and it would be okay. The smaller size ended up still being too large for me up top. I tried to use fashion tape but it didn't really hold. I wore the dress anyway because it was just too beautiful not to! I wore it to my Up! Themed Bridal Shower. My mom even got me a tiara to complete my Princess look. Overall the dress was incredibly gorgeous and I received a ton of compliments. Just make sure to size down so you aren't flashing your bra all day like I was. :)

Show Stopper! But strange fit.
When I first tried the dresses on when they arrived, I was not happy. I actually cried! I rented this for my bachelorette party weekend. The 12 was far too baggy in the shoulder area, and I felt the 10 was too tight. I ended up wearing the 10 on the second night of my bach weekend and ended up feeling gorgeous in it. It was a little short but I just made sure I didn't flash any one! I got lots of compliments all evening and ended up really happy I didn't send the dress back. I usually wear fit and flare to camouflage my mid section, but it turned out to be a fab dress.

Modern fairytale perfection for my engagement photos
I received both the large and medium . The large elastic waistband seemed to be stretched out, but the medium was too tight and looked see through when on. I went with the large even though it was a tad big. I loved the look and my pics came out amazing!!! Everyone loved the skirt and I got so many comments on how amazing I looked.

Gorgeous color
The color and pattern of this dress were stunning. It was great for an August wedding. Love the modest length and shape of the dress. Only negative was the seam on the bust... Since I have a larger chest it didn't fit perfectly but you can't notice in photos. Overall very happy with this dress!!

Fun and Comfy for a Bachelorette Party!
I ended up going with the large since it was hot out and I liked how flowy and unconstricted I felt in it. While other people were having problems with Spanx, I felt and looked amazing the whole night. Unlike many other rompers/jumpers this didn't give you a diaper-like look. I especially loved the little button to snap on the chest area so my boobs were perfectly tucked away! My only problem was since I was drinking alcohol, using the bathroom... just be wary if you will be out in gross bathrooms to make sure you keep it from touching the floor! I wish I owned this!!!

Classy Showstopper!
This dress was so flattering and I loved the pattern. I wore it to my sister's bridal shower and got compliments on how gorgeous I looked the whole time. The material was a thick, scuba suit type fabric that was so well put together. I especially loved how the inside by the neckline had a smooth fabric so there was no uncomfortable seam. The only thing I didn't love about this dress were the sleeves. You can see in the pictures it is kind of a weird cut that shows your armpit strangely. other than that (and the fact that I wore it on the hottest day of the year so far, thank goodness the event was in an air conditioned room) I would highly suggest this one of a kind dress!

Gorgeous, comfy, perfect dress!
I rented this dress for a summer wedding. I have a large bust and the 8 fit perfectly. I loved that it wasn't super tight so I didn't have to worry about eating or drinking too much. Also, it was a perfect, lady-like length. I saw so many other women with super short dresses and was happy that my length wasn't totally scandalous. The gold design was absolutely stunning! I received compliments all night. The best part was that I could wear a regular bra with this dress and didn't have to worry about pulling a strapless bra up all night. I rented the Slate & Willow Lobby Necklace as an accessory and it was absolutely perfect. I loved everything about this look and highly recommend it!

Classy & Comfy!
I rented this for a birthday weekend trip to Boston. I wore it to walk around the city for sightseeing and then dinner and drinks out at night. First of all, the material is great. It was thick and stretchy, super comfy. I loved the way the dress is cut - super flattering. I even opted to not wear my Spanx under because the cut flared out at just the right spot that I didn't feel uncomfortable. I wore a regular bra and the straps didn't show - a big plus. I added some color with the Kate Spade Chip necklace.

I rented this for a weekend trip to Dallas/Fort Worth, Texas. I knew it would be HOT so the fit and color of this dress was perfect. I loved how the skirt stayed true to its shape even packed up in a suitcase. I received many compliments on the dress both in person and in pictures.

I'm not one for drop earrings or pearls, but these came as my stylists pick so I decided to wear them anyway. I got lots of compliments on them as I wore my hair up to show them off. I'd recommend if you plan on doing simple jewelry elsewhere.

Fun, comfy & many compliments!
I wore this dress for a wedding in June at a winery. I loved the fabric and the pleating of the skirt, as well as the bright colors and design. It has a little bit of lace details which just added to the special look of the dress. The overall fit of the dress was great except for my chest. I am a 38DD and knew looking at the previous reviews it would probably be a bit snug. I somehow got the ladies in there and while I had ample cleavage, the cut of the dress made it so it wasn't risque. Strangers complimented me the entire night and I had so much fun dancing in this dressing.
