So short!
This is a well made dress, rich color, great fit, but SO short. I rented this thinking that it might fall longer on me because I'm only 5'3". It barely covered my bum! I thought maybe leggings and boots might work, but no such luck.

Keep them guessing
I rented this dress for an Oscar party that I hosted. I wear 4 or 6 depending on the designer, and 42/4 fit with room to spare, so no shapewear needed. I checked "true to size" because the fit was just right through the top. The dress fell a little longer on me than on the model. The question mark is a punk-inspired collage of sequins, safety pins, screws and bolts - so it is a very fun, festive dress. Thank you RTR for carrying Moschino Cheap & Chic.

Elegant dress for an elegant setting
I rented this for a black tie event. It was perfect in every way. It is extremely well made, the colors are rich, the lace isn't scratchy, It fit perfectly - shoulders, bust, waist, hips and best of all, length. I have been hesitant renting anything long from RTR because it would be a joke for me to wear 5-6" heels for a dress to hit the right place. I wore 3-1/2" heels and it hit the floor just right.The ribbon belt added the illusion of a waist without cinching in the basically shift-like shape that works best on me. It was comfortable sitting, eating and dancing. I hope to rent this again.

This is so cute, I bought it!
This is one of several dresses I rented for a long weekend of parties. The digital screen print is great and on trend, catching the light of sequins without being shiny. The colors are a great mix - whites, pinks, blues and some browny-blacks. Lots of choices with jewelry and accessories. The shift shape is in great proportion, fell smoothly down skimming hips and didn't pull anywhere. It hit maybe 3" above my knees, not nearly as short as on the model, so I could sit comfortably. I ended up wearing this twice when brunch unexpectedly popped up. When I realized how many more times I could rent it to wear during a summer of traveling, I bought it!

Confetti Printed Shift
Twelfth Street by Cynthia Vincent
Size Worn: S
Usual Size: 6

Perfect for a day at the races
Other reviews are accurate - the dress is larger on the bottom than the top, including the waistline which had plenty of room to spare. The top was a good fit. There wasn't a 4 available, so I went with it thinking that it would be perfect for a day at the races, outside, climbing steps, plus no shapewear needed. It was! I got lots of compliments on the dress - the colors are rich and the fabric obviously high quality. The lace at the hem is like wearing high end lingerie and quietly sexy without leaving the rest of the skirt too short. I would probably rent this again.

Pretty but strange fit
I ordered the 6 and 8 because Erin typically runs small in the top. It was true in this case. But I didn't wear the 8 because it was too lose and sat oddly at the waist. That said, the color is fabulous. The skirt pooled around my feet, and would have required pretty high heels to hit the floor properly.
