Perfect jewelry pairing for a summer wedding

The RTR team picked out a great necklace to go with my dress rental. The Nicole Miller Star Light Star Bright necklace was beautiful, and truly a great pairing with the dress. Thanks ladies!

Great necklace--perfect for a strapless dress

Wore this necklace for a summer formal wedding. Loved it--great with the strapless dress I wore, and think would be equally awesome with a square-neck dress. I could see this being a great go-to option for cocktail or formal events, and I'm seriously considering buying it or something similar.

Pretty coral color, great for formal summer wedding

As other reviewers have noted, this dress runs large. However, I tucked a strapless dress into the 0, and was able to make it work. The color on this dress is really lovely, and was perfect for a formal wedding in Miami. While this isn't a style I would buy, the folded origami was unique and great for a rental. The fabric is heavier than I expected--while this means the folding holds its shape fairly well, it does make for a warm dress if you'll be outside in the heat. On the whole, it wasn't the most flattering rental I've ever had, but a solid option nonetheless.

Perfect style for an outdoor rehearsal dinner in Miami

Wore this to a welcome/rehearsal dinner for a Miami wedding. With simple jewelry and flats, it was perfect for the "Island Chic" requested attire. The dress fit true to size (usually a 0, wore the 0) through bust/body. My only complaint is that the straps were too long for my 5'5'' frame. The dress stayed up fine because of the belted waist, but the straps constantly fell off my shoulders. An easy fix for a tailor if I owned the dress, but no easy temporary fix available given the cut.

Sadly unflattering dress, but at least RTR team gave prompt credit for future rental

I've rented from RTR previously, and have had stellar luck with fit/sizes. Apparently, I was due for a miss, and this definitely was. The dress was very unflattering on my body. I'm on the shorter side (5'5'') and have a shorter upper body as compared to my legs, so I was very surprised when the straps/bodice seemed to be too short for my body, with the criss-cross pattern hitting across, rather than under, my bust. Things weren't any better on the bottom half of the dress. Wish I could provide more helpful feedback as to what exactly was wrong, but to be honest it was so unflattering that I wasn't motivated to stay in long enough to figure it all out.

Beautiful black lace, flattering fit--another RTR success!

I wore this for a black tie wedding in Aspen. The dress fit true to size and I found it flattering. The underlayer can be a big snug, but the lace hangs nicely over the bottom layer. (Full disclosure--I forgot my spanx and wasn't an issue!) As other reviewers have noted, the inner layer at the bust has an annoying habit of inverting a bit so that the lining shows--a bit of tape to the bra might do the trick, but I'm not sure. Also--the zipper was a mess, and kept catching at the waist and wouldn't zip all the way. Not sure if this was an issue just with the dress I had, but something to watch for (perhaps RTR staff could repair this to avoid future headaches for other renters?)

As always, renting from RTR was easy and yielded great results.

These earrings were beautiful and gave a great "pop" to a solid dress at a recent wedding. However, they were EXTREMELY heavy. I seriously considered whether or not I could even wear them, given how much they pulled at my earlobes. I resorted to a compromise and wore them for the reception dinner but had to take them off for dancing.

Stylist added earrings to dress order only days before rental--thanks!

Beautiful, classic without being "boring". Wore with an orange dress for a wedding, but think would work well with a variety of fall colors.

Stylists make modifications to order a breeze--even the week of the event!

Overall, I loved this dress. The fabric was body-conscious, but the draping/cut ensured a flattering fit that wasn't too "clingy". The v-neck is quite low, which may require a bit of work to find the right bra, but was manageable. As for the color, I don't usually do orange, but it was great for a fall wedding (orange w/out feeling like a pumpkin), and I honestly think it would work for all seasons w/ the right accessories. Wore w/ "creamsicle" druzy drop earrings, and was thrilled with the outfit overall.

beautiful dresses without losing closet space :)

Used this for a rehearsal dinner at an art gallery in Santa Fe. Great navy color--still had "richness" to the blue. Loved that this dress had lots of "flexibility"--could easily be dressed up with sparkly jewelry/shoes for a wedding, or dressed down for a more casual affair. I find shoshanna dresses run large, but luckily this one wasn't too big.

Ordering/returning was super easy, and love that I got another outfit w/out taking up room in my city-sized closet. Was my first order, but I will be a repeat customer!

Ordered this for a summer wedding in Santa Fe. LOVED the dress, but the fit was a bit concerning at first. I'm usually a 0 or 2, but after reading reviews that it ran small, I ordered the 2. Was worried it was huge until I realized there was an inner bra. Once that was hooked (and I slipped a padded strapless bra in--apparently it is meant for bigger than a B cup!), it was great. Was worried the print was a bit "sparkle on bad french toile curtains", but loved it in person.
