Vibrant
The color was beautiful! However it wasn’t as flattering as I’m short

Lots of compliments but tricky to wear
This dress was a nice quality dress and very pretty, but I'm 5'2" and it was very short on me! Part of the issue was the slip which as other reviewers said, rode up right away and would look kind of bunched in the front. I used fabric tape to keep the slip down on either side of the dress. That kept me more secure that the slip wouldn't ride up TOO far, but it was still something I had to think about throughout the night. It photographed well though, and I received lots of compliments. I would say this would be a better dress for girls without hips - I'm not super large in that area and I did have trouble so if you do have larger thighs, I'd skip this one.

Dress up or down
I wanted to dress this down a bit as the bachelorette party I was attending was more casual, but I still wanted to look cute. This dress was perfect! I was pleasantly surprised by the stretch and feel of the fabric. It was thin so I wouldn't necessarily recommend this for a cold winter event. It does take a minute to figure out the sash...not sure if I even tied it correctly...but it looked cute so I'd say it worked! I was able to easily wear a regular bra (just removed one strap). Enjoy!

This skirt ran a little bit large, but not enough that I felt the sizing was "off" or falsely advertised. It was comfortable and had a little give to it, and the color made it a lot of fun to wear.

Stand out in the sea of black dresses
I wore this skirt for a work fundraiser - dress code was black tie & blue jean. I paired it with a denim shirt and it was perfect. Super comfortable, not too heavy and even short enough for me to wear without tripping (I'm 5'2"). I wore it pretty high on my waist and the waist sizing was definitely small. Even that high on my waist the small barely fit and I usually can wear an xs. Would recommend for a fun night!

Statement Dress
I wore this for a night out in Vegas. It was comfortable - it did ride up a bit, but I was dancing so I expected that to a degree. Unlike a different Versace dress I rented from RTR, this one did come with the telltale button on the back and the colors were vibrant and fun. I would recommend this dress for a night out, bachelorette, etc.

Beautiful beading
I wore this dress for a night out in Vegas. I was not a huge fan. First, the pros: the beading is beautiful and it is definitely built for someone with curves. Cons: the lining would NOT stay put. The class and elegance of this dress was lost on me because I was constantly tugging on the two lining layers.

Night out in Vegas!
This dress should just be renamed "Vegas" because it was perfect for Sin City. I wore this out and received compliments, looks, etc. but still felt SO comfortable. I felt more comfortable wearing the stick on bra, but I wasn't able to hook it in the front - it still worked just fine and once this dress was on, nothing moved. Classic Herve and I am so glad this dressed lived up to my expectations!

I wore this in Vegas - which was perfect. I wore it to a Sports Bar where my group held our fantasy football draft. I wasn't too "dressed up" for the group and was grateful I was wearing this because we decided to go to Britney at the last minute and this outfit seamlessly transitioned to a dressier venue. Plus, it was comfortable! LOVE!

I wore this dress for a wedding. Beware - nude seamless undergarments are a must. It is a beautiful dress but for the price, somewhat underwhelming. The colors seemed muted to me. The dress came in good condition and the lining stayed put.

So Beautiful for Fall
This dress was a replacement and it came with tags! It was very comfortable (pockets), true to size and gorgeous. It reminded me of Pippa Middleton's wedding dress because the zipper was concealed by the flowers - they snapped in place over the zipper making it more of a seamless design. The open back was beautiful and the event planner told me I was "best dressed." Perfect for a fall wedding. It might be a little heavy for a warm evening but it was true to size and worth it!

A little different but the sum of the parts is stunning
I wasn't 100% sure about this dress but I'm so glad I tried it. It was my birthday dress, and I wore it out for dinner and drinks with my husband. It was easy to wear even in the summer heat because of all the mesh - I never felt too warm. I also felt covered when in all reality my midriff and back were bare. The skirt was a little structured because of the white piping and that made it stand out a little further than I'd have liked but it wasn't anything I couldn't deal with. Lots of compliments!

So cute! Many compliments!
I wore this to the U.S. Open this past weekend. We had tickets to the Corporate Hospitality tent so I figured this dress would be appropriate and it was so much fun to wear! MANY compliments from women all over the course. The straps were adjustable which was a major plus and the skirt is a little heavier (not too much though for a summer day) so when it was a little windy I didn't have to worry about a wardrobe malfunction. I highly recommend this one!

Classic and comfortable
I wore this for a work event and really enjoyed wearing it! It had a little stretch to it which made it comfortable. I sometimes have trouble with straps like these but these were thick and laid nicely. The length was a little long on me, but I'm short and it made it work appropriate so it worked out well. I was pleasantly surprised by how much I liked this dress!

Dress up or down
I wore this dress to a brunch & baseball game, hosted through work. I dressed it down with sandals but it could be dressed up with heels and a nice necklace. The fabric is soft and has a decent amount of stretch. The lining kind of bunches so I did have to pull the lining down from time to time. Nothing major, but since the majority of the dress is white the bunches showed through. You'll also need seamless underwear because those lines would show even through the lining.

I rented this necklace but decided not to wear it. I was attending a work event and it was a little too dressy for the occasion. It is a short necklace but I've worn this style of Kendra Scott before. I would rent this again - it'd be perfect for the holidays.

Beautiful piece
I rented this with the Theia Midnight Sheath and it was perfect. That dress doesn't need a necklace but I still wanted something fun to wear to a close friends wedding and this fit the bill. It didn't get caught on anything and it wasn't too heavy. I have a smaller wrist and it was a little large but not so much that it would fall off. I loved this and would definitely rent it again.

Beautiful back to this dress
I was hesitant to try this dress but I am glad I did. I wore it to a charity fashion show event and I did receive compliments from other women because (I think) the back of this dress is great. However, the front made me feel a little matronly and almost looked like my chest was sagging. The dress ran pretty small. I could fit in the XS but the waist cut in a strange place and that along with the top of the dress made me look heavy. The small was better but the slip was still tight and it rode up. Not a huge issue but the top layer of this dress is sheer...so I did have to make sure it stayed somewhat in place. I'm glad I tried this dress but it definitely wasn't my favorite. Cute though.

Easy to wear and unique
I've worn several Clover Canyon dresses and they don't disappoint! Rent this if you want to be able to wear regular undergarments, stand out in the crowd and know that you'll have pull the skirt down and adjust it from time to time. Every Clover Canyon I've rented has crawled up - I feel like it's the nature of the stretch scuba material. However, these dresses are so much fun to wear that it's a small price to pay!

Cute and VERY sparkley
I rented this ring as something fun to wear over Easter and I even got a compliment from an older woman in church! The ears were a little sharp so I had to be careful putting on a coat, etc. and when I was picking up my kids. The ring was very large and it was a lot of fun to wear, but I'm not sure I would have worn it if it wasn't Easter because it is a huge rabbit on your hand. If that's what you are looking for...this ring is for you! It was somewhat heavy but it didn't really bother me to wear.

Beautiful quality gown
I wore this for a gala and really enjoyed it. It was soft, comfortable and classy. I'm 5'2" and the dress was dragging just a bit with three inch heels...but I was just able to walk in it without tripping. I did wish it would have fit a bit better because I am very petite in my shoulder/chest area and this dress (and many others) was too long on me in that area causing me to have to pull it up from time to time. However, that's how I am built and I can't fault the dress. I received lots of compliments and actually wished this would have fit a little tighter. I thought it ran a little large.

Perfect size
I rented this to match a Marchesa Gilded Garden Gown. I could fit my phone, lip gloss and a credit card perfectly. The clasp was secure and it had a chain that could be hidden in the purse if you wanted to use this as a clutch which was nice. The best was the ombre look to the purse - in some lighting it looked very gold and other lighting it looked closer to black. I'd recommend this, especially with the dress I wore.

On trend and very comfortable
I wore this for a "date night" with my husband. It was a great dress for a night out in Chicago but it didn't "wow" me as others have said. It was comfortable and easy to wear and I'd recommend it for a date or even a wedding. The cutouts would not work for most work environments. I enjoyed trying the bell sleeves but had to watch to make sure they didn't end up in my dinner!

This was gorgeous! It fit well with the adjustable larger piece of the ring and was really pretty. I wore it to a wine tasting event so I received a lot of compliments as I was tasting-it was visible but not over the top. Be careful when slipping on a coat as it's tough to maneuver through the sleeves but this was fabulous. I'm waiting for another event so I can rent it again!

Beautiful understated dress
I received this dress and a few others when my original was damaged. It was beautiful but I wasn't loving the mesh top. It seemed unnecessary and instead could have just had the v neckline without the mesh. Also, the nude slip kept riding up and you could clearly see that through the top layer. I'm glad I tried it but it just didn't work for me.

Compliments for strangers!
This dress. This dress caused people to stop me in the street in the middle of a crowd from the wedding and in an at capacity bar to tell me how I stood out in the crowd. Rent. This. Dress. The wedding was on a lake so it caught the wind just a bit in pictures and I felt like a queen. The built in necklace and also the pockets (!) made this such a functional dress too. I am SO glad I rented this when my original came back damaged. This dress saved the day and made my night!

Something different but fashion tape is a necessity.
I couldn't wear this but wish I could have. My husband loved t. I am small chested and also have small shoulders so even if I had taped it as it looked in the picture there was a bunch of extra fabric in the back shoulder area. The color was gorgeous for summer.
