Weird Fit! Made for tall, thin folk!
I loved this on the model but does not translate to a 5'3" curvy lady. The dress is gorgeous although it does make a swishy sound when walking. The fit is too bizarre. I ordered 2 sizes up bc this brand usually runs small. The waist was fitted but the sleeves were very long. The back poofs out (see the picture) and the v-neck is incredibly low. Sadly, I tried on and sent it back right away.

LOVED but didn't wear bc crazy NYC weather
This is a gorgeous dress! I LOVE Anna Sui and am so happy to see her designs on RTR. The dress includes a black slip to wear underneath the sheer floral fabric. Very loose and flowy. I rented this to wear in September but NYC is still in the high 80s so it didn't work out. I am planning to rent this again as soon as it cools down.

I wanted to love it but it was just meh.
I ordered an 8 which fit my hips but was slightly too big in the waist. The skirt was pretty but nothing special. Whenever wind was present (arriving trains, gusts of wind, walking down stairs), the skirt flew open.

Classic Dress very Marilyn Monroe
I loved this dress, but it was so tight in the chest (36C) that I didn't end up wearing it. I wouldn't need a bra--it was that tight, but it was also very uncomfortable. The rest of the dress is great but I did need my husband to help zipping the back up--the back zip is in a very odd location.

Looks fancy but super comfy!
I rented this for work and it was way too fancy looking for my job as a teacher. Many people asked where I was going after work haha. It's so comfortable and looks so chic.

Cute long sweater!
I rented this to wear on my trip to Iceland and loved it! I wore it several times. It kept me warm and I also felt very cool when I wore this sweater. It fits true to size and is quite long so it can be worn with leggings.

Great exercise pant.
I didn't end up wearing these but they fit great. The pattern on the sides look more serious exercise type of pant than I'm used to but they fit great and are comfortable.

Weird fit!
These pants fit very oddly. They are high waisted but the fabric pooches out between your waist and hips. It's very bizarre. The fabric is very soft and the pants are so cute but I couldn't wear them because it was too weird.

Great lightweight sweater!
I rented this for my trip to Iceland and loved it so much! I wore it several times--it's very soft and adorable. It fits true to size but the sleeves were quite long. I rolled the sleeves up and it wasn't a big deal since I was just traveling but it may be annoying or less ideal for work or a date. I will definitely rent again for a casual fall day.

Great extra layer but not waterproof.
I rented this for my trip to Iceland. I thought it was waterproof--it is NOT waterproof! But it did add a nice extra layer on top of a down jacket. It fits true to size and is very cute.

Great dress but it does have see through holes!
I rented this dress for a work event. It was great and I felt very comfortable in it. However, the small holes all over the dress do show! I didn't notice how much until I was sitting on the subway heading back home. Just beware. The dress is lovely and I think it would flatter most figures. Runs true to size and is a lightweight knit. Just make sure you are aware of those small holes!

Loved! Sexy and also classy
I loved this dress but didn't end up wearing it. I rented it for bachelorette party in Vegas but my friends preferred another dress (they said this one was too conservative! Ha!). It fits true to size but the chest section was a bit tight on me (36C) but not a big deal.

Loved so much! May purchase!
I loved this dress. It's linen so it's perfect for the horrible NYC summer. The wrap part isn't too low so like it is on most wrap dresses. I really loved this dress and have been thinking about purchasing it!

I love this dress sooooo much! One of my colleagues does Unlimited too and she has her eye on this dress too. It's so light and airy plus super fun with the fruit print.

Very typical Marni style. Huge but I loved it!
I loved this dress. I wore it twice (once to work with a blazer and another time out to a casual dinner). It's large & not figure flattering but I truly loved it. It's very cool and made me feel chic but relaxed. I'll definitely rent it again & I would purchase it if it wasn't over $1,000.

Perfect work/interview dress.
I've worn this dress to work and for work events several times. I've thought about buying it but didn't want to spend that much money--will definitely rent again for work-related events. I received so many compliments and felt so professional but comfy!

Yessss! Colorful & Fun.
I rented this for Vegas and I wore it 3 times on a 4 day trip. It's so easy to wear and comfortable. I felt so bright and fun. It's definitely not flattering for an hourglass figure but I enjoyed wearing it and that's all that matters! I'll be renting it again (maybe buying it).

Great statement dress!
I adore this dress. I rented this for a benefit event at The Met & it was perfect. It's fun and the low V makes it feel sexy. The puffy arms have some type of itchy material in them which is why the dress has 4 stars instead of 5.

Beautiful Dress but SUPER STATICKY!
I loved the print of the dress and the necktie was lovely. HOWEVER, the dress is so staticky that is was annoying and uncomfortable. When I got to work, the dress had ridden up under my coat due to all the static.--the dress rode up so much that it was basically a shirt and my tights were pants. This happened on my evening commute too.

Great dress just not very forgiving.
The dress is lovely and I received several compliments when I wore it on a dreary Monday morning to work. I paired it with a white turtleneck underneath since I wore it in winter. The dress isn't forgiving at all in the lower tummy area and seemed to really hug that pouch that I don't want behind hugged.

Lovely coat
The coat is truly lovely and is pretty warm. However, the one I received has been worn A LOT! The black color has faded significantly and shows a lot of wear.

Not for short gals.
I am 5'3" and wanted to love these pants so much. They are full-length pants on me and felt awkward wearing them with shoes. I am sadly returning these pants without wearing them :(

Love!!!! My favorite RTR rent yet!
I adore this dress so much! For winter in NYC, I paired the dress with thick sweater tights and a turtleneck with black ankle boots. I didn't know if it was going to work but I received so many compliments. It's such a gorgeous dress. Fits true to size and very versatile.

Too large.
I love the oversized look, but this coat is simply too big. The back loop and the slit were below my butt. Looked very odd.

ADORABLE!
I love this dress so much! I've thought about purchasing it several times. The wrong belt arrived in my shipment so I wore the dress without the belt and it looked flowy & cute. I paired it with black tights and boots. It is a great dress. Great fabric, fit, & style.
