Nipply
I rented one size up and loved everything about this dress... Except the dang darts! I couldn't wear it because they created the most ridiculous looking faux nipples. Even if you have a smaller chest, the fabric was dimpled and I see this being a problem. Not appropriate for work because of this. Bummer because the rest of the fit was perfect and comfortable.

Runs tiny
I'm a solid size 2 and rented this in a S. It fits high on the waistline. The material was loose at the top and so tight in the hips and tush that it folded when I walked. I don't think this will fit any girls with curves. Between the short length and tight fit, it just wasn't appropriate for work.

Not the slam dunk I hoped for
I wanted to love this. I mean, do you see how gorgeous the color is? BUT, it just didn't live up to the other photos I saw. The fit was ok. I went up a size after reading the reviews, and the 4 fit exactly like a 2. It looks super wrinkled in my photo. I don't think it looked that bad in person, but something you should expect. I doubt I'll rent again.

Tiny in the chest
The size XS is definitely not going to fit a bigger bust! I'm a 32D and could barely zip the top. It was so stretched out, it looked obscene. Too bad too, because the length, waistline and hips were flattering. Perhaps I'll try a S with better luck?

Stretches out
This ribbed sweater material stretched out a ton across the waist and back. The neck, cuffs and button details were nice. But overall I didn't find the dress flattering, especially from the side because it failed to skim my shape and just hung. Very mediocre on my body shape.

Flattering dress
Love this one! It's warm and hugs curves without accentuating insecurities. I will absolutely rent it again. The ribbed sweater material kept its shape and didn't stretch out. I did have shapewear underneath. I'm a size 2, 5'2" and rented size S.

METALLIC
This dress was such a disappointment for a few reasons: -It has metallic thread! I didn't get that from the photo and should have notice that in the fabric description. -The material is very rough and scratchy. If you wear full spanx underneath that will minimize the itch. -It clings to your chest. Like really clings. It will stick to the bottom of your boob and underwire bra and flaunt every inch. Maybe it works better on a small chest, but I felt like it was waaaay to much on my D cup.

Nice color
This dress was flattering in color and fit. I'm 5'2" and a solid size 2. The small fit comfortably. You'll need a cami underneath if you have a larger chest.

A+ dress
This may be my favorite dress ever! It's a soft sweater and keeps it's shape and has great stretch. It's a good choice for Fall between the warmer material and short sleeves. I found it very comfortable and flattering. Enjoy!

Large in the middle
This dress is as mediocre as they come. I didn't hate it enough to ship it back, so I wore it once and will not rent it again. The size two fit comfortably through the shoulders, arms, and bust. The waistline was huge. In the photo you can see it hangs acceptably, but there was probably 5-6" of extra fabric.

Tight one
This is definitely a "skinny day dress". It has a flattering cut and hugs the body. Sometimes tight dresses run too small in the arms for me, and I'm happy to say that's not a problem with this one. The fabric is nice, has some stretch with structure and doesn't wrinkle.

Good one for the rotation
I didn't love this dress, but it worked. The size 2 was spot on for sizing. I'm 5'2" and it was as short as I go for work, so tall girls beware. The cut made me feel wide-probably because of the shoulder cut.

Nope
I sized down after reading the reviews. Although the arms/chest of the size 0 fit like a 2, the midsection was huge and awkwardly baggy. I didn't wear it.

Cute dress
Loved the fit and fabric! It's structured with a little stretch. I did wear a sports bra to avoid the straps of my bra showing. Highly recommend!

Not a favorite
I will not rent this dress again. The color is pretty, and actually brighter than advertised in my option. It just didn't hit me right. My biggest issue-and the reason I will not rent again-the huge armpit that exposed a little side boob. Not a good look.

Great work or casual dress
I love this dress and would probably keep it if it wasn't so expensive. It has a ton of stretch, but kept its shape throughout the day. It is NOT see through, but I did wear Spanx underneath to smooth my tummy a bit.

Good pick
I loved this dress! The fabric is light and flows. The only drawback is when the wind blows, the skirt tends to fly open! The waistline has an elastic, so it's sure to fit every size and shape. The XS fit well, even with a larger chest. Go for your true size or size down if between.
Turquoise Sleeveless Dress

Size Worn: XS
Usual Size: 2
Height: 5' 2"

Too big
This was a big fat NO. Although the shoulders, arms and chest fit, the rest of the dress was too baggy in the midsection and hips. As it gave me a lovely false beer belly, I opted to ship it right back. Pretty color too--too bad.

Felt a little too mature
This dress was a nice change from my usual style, but not a slam dunk. It was comfy, a pretty color, and didn't wrinkle. Honestly, it kind of reminded me of something my grandma would pick for me to wear to a wedding...

Super small
This dress was so tiny, I couldn't even zip up the size small. I'm usually a two and this thing was skin tight through my legs and tush when I pulled it up. Zipper wouldn't even pass my rib cage. I might try it in a bigger size because the fabric is nice.

Happy in mustard
Fantastic dress with a neat hem! I've rented this one twice, and will do so again. I have muscular arms and the sleeves fit without being tight. Also, the cut is forgiving on the lower tummy. I'm petite though, and I can't imagine how short the one half of the dress would be on taller girls!
Yellow Drape Hem Dress

Felt cheap
This is probably the lowest quality dress I've rented from RTR. The fabric is thin and unlined. The zipper felt like it would break when I dressed (not because it was too tight, it just felt cheap). You have to wear it on a skinny day with shapewear. Positive things... it was very stretchy even though it was form fitting, good length for a petite girl, light weight material that didn't wrinkle. I'm not upset I tried it, but I will not rent again.

Stretchier Than I Expected
You can't beat the color! I liked the fabric more than I though as it had a nice stretch despite the thickness and texture. Overall good choice to add to your rotation.

Comfy choice
I'm usually a size 2 and rented this in a S. It was more flattering than I expected-cozy too. The fabric is thick and didn't wrinkle. The tie belt is attached in the back, so you don't have the option of swapping it for a different one. I will rent again.

A+ Skirt
This is such a great color! It's super stretchy and clingy through the bum and hips. My favorite part is the flexible waist band that won't dig in and give you muffin top! It will hug your body and lay flat on your belly. Definitely recommend!

Size Worn: XS

Great dress
It's a little casual perhaps, but feminine and pretty. Your waist will look tiny! I'm a solid size two and wear XS and S dresses. The XS fit perfect-though it was a brief struggle to pull over my chest when putting it on! The fabric is thin but doubled up, so no bra or underwear show through.

Size Worn: XS
Usual Size: 2

Watch out for the holes
This is a clingy, form filling material through the torso. It also has tiny holes that will allow skin vs fabric to show underneath. I highly recommend shapewear to prevent visibly bra/panties. The shape will hide any lower tummy insecurity well.

Not what I hoped for
I really, really wanted to love this dress! First of all, it runs HUGE. I'm a solid 2 and had to size down to a 0-and it was still loose. Super cute dress, just not flattering on me. I added a belt to help define my waste, but was disappointed.

Feels like the holidays
Size up-this is a tight one on the torso. It's very pretty with a distinct Christmasy feel. The skirt puffs out a bit more than normal, so you might not like if you're trying to minimize the look of your tush or hips. I love that it didn't cling to my lower stomach!

A+ dress
This may be my favorite dress rental. Sizing up is ESSENTIAL. I am typically a S or XS. I rented this in a M and was very comfortable. Be prepared for a skin tight dress if you go with your usual size.

Meh.
Just ok. There's a lot of fabric with this one. It's comfortable, but not the most flattering on me. Also, I'm short and this dress hits me mid thigh in the back (because the back is quite a bit shorter than the front). Comments I heard today ranged from "What a cute peasant dress!" to "Burn that horrid orange thing immediately." I'd rent again for a personal, somewhat casual, event but not work.

Kind of plain
It's an ok dress. I rented a S instead of an XS based on reviews. It ended up being too big. Next time I'll go for the XS. Very stretchy, forgiving fabric.

Gorgeous dress
Such a beautiful color! The material is scuba, so thick and pretty stretchy. It definitely runs tiny so size up one or two sizes. I'm usually a 2 and rented the 40 and it fits perfectly. My only dislike (and the only reason it's not 5 stars) is that you have to pull on over your head and it was not easy to get on! Put it on before your makeup!

A short one!
This was shorter than perhaps appropriate for work... And I'm only 5'2"! Material was otherwise soft, stretchy, flowy and forgiving-not clingy in the midsection. Very comfortable. I can wear size XS or S (as a size 2), and the XS was perfect.

Way too short
This is NOT a work appropriate dress, even if you're short like me. Length was mid thigh. Otherwise, the fit was nice in the top, sleeves just a little snug.

Pick this dress!
Size DOWN. The first time I tried this dress, I rented my usual size 2 and it was huge. The 0 fits like a 2. Very pretty and flattering. Will rent again!

Unexpectedly Awesome!
Truthfully, I thought this dress was a little ugly and would be a send-back-without-wearing-dress. Boy, was I wrong! It's very flattering despite the relaxed fit. The color is actually much brighter and prettier than on the app (my photo doesn't do it justice either). I definitely recommend giving this one a try!!!

Thin fabric but still nice
This dress is a little thinner and clingier than I usually like. But with Spanx at my disposal, I absolutely loved it! The color is beautiful. I'm a solid size 2 and the size small was perfect. I'm not looking to add to my closet, otherwise I'd certainly keep it.

Cute and Comfy
This is a nice lightweight dress. It's very comfortable and a great choice for a "bloated" day as the cut is forgiving. Ladies with larger chests-I did have to wear a sports bra to fit into this one! Perfect length for a petite person.
