Warm, cozy, and closeable - even nine months pregnant!
I rented this for a Midwestern winter while pregnant. Full disclosure: Until you're late in pregnancy, it seems huge; I triple checked the tag to make sure I'd received the proper size. As the pregnancy progressed, though, having a warm coat that actually closed was so appreciated. We affectionately called this the 'mama bear coat.' It represented a fun fashion moment, especially important as fewer and fewer clothes fit. This is definitely a statement, so be prepared!

My favorite RTR gown!
Holy buckets, this dress makes you feel like a million bucks! Its thick fabric hugs your curves, and the shoulder makes a statement — and saying it that simply undersells it! I wore this to a black tie gala, and this dress was hands down the winner. There is simply no comparison. Rent this now!!

A fun pattern in a comfy fit!
Some days you just want comfort. This sweatshirt provides both comfort AND fashion — something that's not always easy to find. The relaxed fit makes this ideal to pair with skinny jeans and tennis shoes for a fun day out.

A class act!
This top exudes elegance. It's perfect for those days with a number of important meetings where you want to dress to impress but not overdo it. The zip back and peplum hem give this great structure that's super flattering — highly recommend!

A party for your wrists!
A simple sweater dressed up with fun ruffles on the wrists! I hover between an XS-S and opted with a S in this top. It was a little loose and offered a relaxed fit. Overall, classy with a pop of fun!

Color + Cut + Comfort = Winner!
It's not often that I truly want to keep a dress, but this one's different. The color, the cut, and the comfort make this dress a real winner. The free flowing shape does an outstanding job of balancing out the short length; this combination makes this dress a head-turner without being over the top. If you're considering renting this dress, do yourself a favor and act now!

Loved this dress for a chilly winter date night! Its heavy fabric keeps you warm while hugging your curves - a win-win in my book. The print is beautiful, too. Highly recommend!

A showstopping color!
A curve-hugging dress that draws lots of attention thanks to both its shape and color! The dress is lovely paired with a jeweled necklace, and the back zip certainly draws attention to your backside. The lace on my particular rental didn't lay quite smooth at the bottom seam (as shown in the photo), so watch out for this. The length was great for me but could be a bit short on anyone much taller.

Unparalleled color, cut, and class!
I couldn't have felt better in this dress! The cut and lace offer an air of sophistication, while the sheer back provides some sex appeal. Pair with a turquoise necklace to spice it up!

Rockin' pattern with a flattering fit!
I love Missoni dresses, and this one is no exception! The pattern and detailing makes this pull-over dress super comfortable. It hugs all the right places; my boyfriend loved it! The only disappointment is that the fabric is super lightweight, so it may tear easily (my dress arrived with a small hole in the rear).

Attention grabbing dress in an awesome color!
The long sleeves and short length make a great combination, and the color is stunning, especially on fair-skinned ladies! The dress is very comfortable, though the sequins can be itchy at times.

The 3 C's: Color, cut, and classy!
Great fit, super comfy, and age-appropriate for a twenty-something; I feel the cut could make it look a little young for some women. Everyone loved the fun shape, the neckline (both front and back), and the color. A very fun selection!

Baggy Fit
I ordered this romper to wear to the Beyonce + JayZ concert; what could be more perfect than a sparkly romper, I thought to myself. Well, not this romper. The fit was atrocious. Perhaps it was due to my petite figure, but there was no shape to this whatsoever. Even the off-shoulder sexiness couldn't balance out its frumpiness. All that being said, I obviously did not wear this for the show.

Sleek.
You'll feel like an urban sophisticate in this dress! The off-shoulder neckline ups the starlet feeling, while the bold color and fit will have all eyes in the room on you. It's definitely not a dress for the meek. If you can handle the attention, go for it; I felt like a million bucks in this dress.

I simply adore rompers, and this one is no different. It's a flattering fit and showcases the legs perfectly. My only complaint is the front that is sooooooo open; I opted to remedy this with a camisole underneath.

So fun!
I received this dress as a backup after one of my original sizes wasn't available. After going with a different dress for the main event, I opted to wear this out the evening before because of its beauty and comfort. I opted to dress it down with a cardigan and tights, but it could definitely be dressed up as well. The fabric and fit are so interesting, and the pattern is unlike anything else. It's more sparkly than what can be seen on a computer screen, which was fine by me! My boyfriend kept referring to the "depth" of this dress; the longer I wore it, the more he loved it!

One word: Amazing.
I loved, loved, loved this dress! It made me feel sexy, and my boyfriend loved it. I rented it for my birthday party, and the looks and the compliments in the restaurant were endless throughout the night. It's definitely short (even on someone my height), so taller ladies should be aware of that. The shoulder detail adds to the appeal of the dress, too - highly recommended!

This is one of those dresses I wish I didn't have to send back! It's fabulous true-to-size fit is super flattering, especially with the sweetheart neckline and the flared bottom. The inside back clasp around the bust keeps the dress in place. And the print - how fun for Independence Day or other summer events! A must rent.

Stunning color but LOTS of fabric!
I received this dress as a back-up, as my original choice wasn't available. While lovely, it's just too much fabric for those with small frames.

Beautiful but SUPER short
I picked this dress for a gala, but, unfortunately, the size I needed (based on previous reviews) wasn't available. It fit perfectly yet did not even graze the floor (even at 5'4"!), making it unfit for a gala. The color and back, which drew me to the dress in the first place, were amazing. Short ladies, order the long; taller ladies, this may not be the dress for you.

Super cute but an odd, large fit
Adorable print, but the fit was awful! The cut is not flattering at all; the dress does not hug where it should and swallows petite women. Not recommended.

The lace of this dress makes it sweet, but its short length balances that sweetness with some sexiness. The color is stunning, and it's perfect for all sorts of events. Like other RTR rentals, I received compliments all night.

A showstopper!
I wore this dress to a fundraiser for my Woman of the Year campaign; one attendee said that I already was in this dress. I received compliments on the dress continually throughout the night, including from those who normally would not notice such things. The dress hugs every curve and is super flattering, especially on the backside. As mentioned in other reviews, the material is thicker, so it's great for winter events. The lower back is a sexy surprise. Of all the dresses I've rented on RTR, this one has been my favorite; I didn't want to send it back.

I cannot say enough great things about this dress! I received it as a last minute substitute for another dress that was unexpectedly unavailable. It fit like a glove and was so flattering! It is feminine yet strong. I received compliments all night, and people continually asked me where I got it. Highly recommended!!

Sassy, fun dress!
I ordered this dress in both the XS and S. Unfortunately, the XS wasn't available on my rental date. RTR did send me the S as well as a great backup dress. The S was a bit big, but I ended up wearing it to work; the looseness and think material made it work for this setting.

Super sexy + comfortable!
The dress runs a little small. Normally, I wear an XS/O, but I couldn't get the XS over my behind! The S fit very well and was very flattering, especially on the lower half. Be sure to get your fashion tape for the deep v-neck.
