Both small and large
Too tight in the bust, too large in the waist. I thought it was cute still, so I wore it anyway, but it could've been more comfortable and more flattering.

Flattering cut/shape
Accentuates a small waist and hides hips and belly. Very stylish, cute, and fun. Looked great with my little black booties!

Sweater dress!
Did not realize this was a thick sweater dress. Definitely too hot for March in Florida, so I couldn't wear it. Was cute though, but probably too low cut for work anyway.

Daring back, hip design
Dress was super cute and trendy. My plans changed and I didn't get to wear it out, but my boyfriend's eyes nearly popped out of his head when I modeled it for him! Could definitely wear without a bra, and I have size D "mom boobs", so that is saying a lot! I might say it runs just a bit small - I ordered an XS with a small as a back-up, but I really would've had to squeeze into the XS.

Painful...and only one?
I must sheepishly admit that I expected there to be TWO jackets with my order. Apparently it is just one, an accent piece. I didn't end up wearing the outfit I ordered to go with this, so I didn't wear it out, but I did put it on for a bit and model for my boyfriend. As others have stated, it is difficult (but not impossible) to get on, and I could certainly see how it would be bothersome after some length of time - heavy, uncomfortable, etc. Particularly since apparently it's only ONE ear that is being weighed down!

Stunner!!
Fits like a dream, color is a real standout, and it's super comfortable. Fit and flare accentuates the waist and hides any lower belly bulge. I felt so hot in this flirty number! It was an Unlimited pick for me, and I ended up wearing it twice - once on a date and once to work. I'll definitely be getting this one again.

Flirty yet sophisticated
Perfect for work. Great fit, stretchy, curves in the right places. Can't think of a negative. I loved this one!

Cute and flirty!
I got this to wear to work without realizing how racy the racer back is! No worries though, I put a cute white jacket on top. Very fun outfit!

Way small!
I think this might've been cute...if I could get it on! Runs super small, make sure you size up - I nearly always wear a 0 or 00 and I couldn't step into it OR pull it over my head.

Couldn't wear it - damaged
First time disappointed in a RTR pick. This one had a loose hem issue and it couldn't be worn. Please fix before sending it to someone else!

Interesting dress - POCKETS!!!
I didn't realize this dress had pockets. What a nice surprise. It's a very sleek design, I felt super sophisticated in this one. The bottom half is almost like two dresses, one laid over the top of the other. A subtle but interesting detail - loved the look!

Small in the bust
Don't recommend for even moderately busty gals. Or maybe you should size up? The lower half was fine, but I couldn't zip it all the way up. The dress looked like it would've been cute though!

Back-up dress that got promoted!
I actually got this dress for the rehearsal dinner, but my RTR rental for the wedding was all wrong, and I was out of town, so this one got called up to the big leagues! It is a heavy fabric, but still has movement and is not uncomfortable. I opted for a strapless bra since I didn't have any fashion tape, but I would've liked it a lot better with my regular, strapped push-up. I paired it with an Oscar de la Renta necklace (fabulous!) that I rented from RTR and my own nude, pointed-toe pumps. The dress is trendy and fun, slightly sexy, but I still felt comfortable and appropriate for the church wedding. The only reason I'm not giving it 5 stars is because I don't feel there was a lot of WOW factor - but you don't really want to upstage the bride anyway, am I right? :)

Definitely a statement piece!
I'm not much of jewelry person. I pretty much only accessorize when I rent from RTR. This piece was a bit of a gamble, but I needed something, so I went for it. I was surprised at how big it was! I am a petite gal, and I worried it would look huge on, but it actually looked great with the solid purple dress I rented. I received several compliments and questions about where it came from (I always brag on RTR!). Great find, highly recommend.

Form Fitting (and maybe not in a good way...)
I tried on both the small and the XS. The small was too big in the top, but okay everywhere else. The XS fit well...too well. It was hugging my curves EVERYWHERE, including down to the bottom hem, so it really showed everything. Now it's not the fault of the dress of that I'm...hmm..."blessed" with a plump bottom and full hips, but it sure wasn't flattering. On the model, it looks like it hangs a bit after hitting the hips. I couldn't wear it to the wedding - too much VA-VA-VOOM for a church. Would probably work better on less curvy gals!

Trendy, comfortable, fun!
I wore this to a (metal) show with low heels and statement jewelry. It was super comfortable, a little sexy, and the pockets are great. It's a pain to use the bathroom in since you have to basically take the whole thing off, but I'd still rent again anyway! Wish it were mine!

Got lots of compliments and felt gorgeous!!!
It is definitely stretchy - I recommend a waist cincher to hold everything in since it won't. It was very beautiful and I got plenty of compliments from friends and strangers alike.
