Great for Xmas
Loved this sweater for Christmas time. Not itchy. Only complaint is that I wish it was longer. Not cropped, but still just too short. I had to wear a cami underneath.

Beautiful skirt. Did not run as large as other reviews said in my opinion. I went with one size smaller and it was definitely too tight around my waist.

Great jacket
Loved this jacket so much. Would’ve bought it if it was cheaper. I did worry a lot about getting it dirty since it was a rental since I wore it so much and ended up sending it back rather than holding on to it for another cycle because of that worry - but then regretted doing so! My usual size fit perfectly

Just didn’t work for me
This was a pretty dress but for me the V neck was just deep enough to prohibit wearing a bra. And I really wasn’t interested in going braless (there’s no structure to the dress to keep boobs in place on its own). Also, the bottom of the skirt was a bit flouncier than I realized. I never wore it and felt like I wasted a selection.

Runs small in the waist - not comfortable to wear
Pretty dress, but ran small. My normal size (2) was way too tight around the waist. I would've been very uncomfortable wearing it to an event.

Opens Upside Down - Everything Falls Out
Really wanted to like this purse; I was looking for something to take with me to Europe. However, I ended up not using it. The purse zips in two halves, and the bottom half opens downward. When you zip it open, it's literally upside down and everything falls out. It makes no sense. Using only the top portion would not be enough room for what I was looking for. This purse was a waste of a rental.

Chest Area Way Too Huge
This was enormous in the chest area. Granted I am an A cup, but even with cup inserts in a padded bra, it gapped horribly at the chest. Overall the top of this dress was just big, and in pictures from the event, I look much larger than I am thanks for this dress. It was comfortable, and pretty fabric, but I wouldn't recommend it again.

Absolutely gorgeous on the front. But I couldn't wear it. I rented my usual size but it was so tiny. Both short / cropped and also tight. I would try it again but would rent two sizes up.

Weird Cut
Loved the pattern! Loved everything else about this shirt except the very odd length. The back was incredibly long while the front was just right. But the sides had big slits that went so high, it made it feel like a crop top. I had to wear a cardigan over it at work to avoid showing the sides of my stomach. Disappointed in the weird cut and wouldn't rent again for that reason.

Tight around neck
I was pulling on the neck of this the whole time I had it on. It was so tight around the neck and felt like it kept riding up around my throat. At least that distracted from how oddly short it was. Pretty color, but I wouldn't rent again.

Loved it!
Absolutely in love with this dress. I needed a nursing friendly dress for my son’s baptism, which was the day after St Patrick’s Day, and this was perfect. It looked fantastic on, and was appropriate for the occasion. And definitely had no problem breastfeeding in it. It was true to size for me, and hit at the knee (I am on the shirt side). If it cost less I’d buy it!

Terrible - so boxy!
I was so disappointed in this shirt and could not send it back fast enough. Hated it. It was too bad because I loved the pattern. But the fit of the shirt was so bad - very short and incredibly boxy. I couldn’t raise my arms even a little bit without showing my stomach. I wore it one time with a black cami underneath but it still looked weird. If you don’t like the short, boxy, exposed midriff trend, this shirt is not for you.

Not very nursing friendly
I rented this thinking the buttons up the front would make it nursing / pumping-friendly. Unfortunately the last two buttons are fake so it doesn’t go down as low as would be helpful. I made it work but it was tricky and I wouldn’t wear it again. Otherwise a cute dress. I am short (5’2”) and the size 4 hit right at the knee which was perfect for work.

Disappointing rental
I was disappointed that I ended up in this dress for the wedding I went to. It made me feel frumpy and old. The combo of the lace fabric and unflattering fit made me feel like I was matching the bride's grandmother. I also hated how noticeable the "hidden" zippers for breastfeeding were. Didn't give it 1 star only because it did the job and it was comfortable but I definitely wouldn't rent again.

Not a Winner
This fit me well around the waist, but was longer than I expected (I am only 5'2") and looked like a school uniform on me because of the knee length and pleats. I was happy to return it.

Gorgeous jacket
Absolutely gorgeous! I read all the reviews saying it was very small - and it was a little - but it was fine. I'm usually a Small and only the XS was available and it wasn't too small for me to wear. It's meant to be cropped and was a cute length over a dress. And the arms would have been a little tight if it weren't for the zippers that went up each arm that allowed it to open a bit and thus it fit fine. I wore this on a warm fall evening and it wasn't too hot. Super happy I chose this jacket!

This purse arrived in perfect condition. I found the clapse just a little difficult to close quickly but really not an issue and shouldn't deter you from renting this. The strap length was good for one shoulder or crossbody. Beautiful! Was happy to wear this to a variety of places.

Great color, unique dress
I was very happy with this dress. It definitely was a little loose. I wore the 2 and am usually a 2, but I think I could have felt good in the 0, depending on what the 0 is like. It's meant to be loose, but I wouldn't have minded it just a bit tighter. The hemline was flattering and this was a fun and unique option!

Pretty Dress for Baptism
I'm normally a size 2-4. After reading reviews that this dress runs large, I ordered a 2 and 0, and I wore the 0, which fit perfectly. It definitely runs large. I thought this was a very pretty dress and very appropriate for my daughter's baptism. It's not an amazing dress that I'm dying to wear again, but I was happy with it! I'm 5'2" and the 0 hit me just a tiny bit above the knee.

I loved this dress and am hoping for an opportunity to rent it again! It fit well and was an appropriate length (just above the knee) on my 5'2" frame for a rehearsal dinner in Florida. The colors were beautiful. I'd definitely recommend.

Average....
This dress was fine. Nothing spectacular but not terrible. I did feel like the fit was frumpy on me. I'm usually in between a 2 and a 4. The 2 fit me well but still just had a look of being a little ill-fitting....something about the way it lays. It's a nice dress and did the job but didn't get compliments and I wouldn't rent it again.

Beautiful nursing-friendly dress
I searched long and hard for a dress that was appropriate for my son's christening, pretty, and easy to breastfeed in and am so glad I found this! Pre-pregnancy I was a size 2. The size 4 in this dress fit me well, though I wish it had sucked in my mid-section a bit more. The length was perfect (I am 5'2"). The fabric was not what I was expecting - I thought it'd be a stretchy, smooth material but it was heavier and textured, which I liked. It made it feel more appropriate for the occasion. Most importantly it was easy to breastfeed in - no problems there! The chest area is very large and I did have to hold it together with a safety pin but it was no problem. RTR should make a "breastfeeding-friendly" search filter but until then, know that this is a great option if that's what you're looking for!

Beautiful dress!
This dress was gorgeous! IT was a very heavy, substantial fabric which felt expensive, but it was not too hot for a warm May wedding. As other reviewers have said, the slits are actually white mesh which is a cool, unique detail. The length was to my knees (I'm 5'2") which was a little longer than I usual prefer, but because of the bright red color and the deep V neckline I wouldn't have wanted it to be any shorter. This dress was perfect! I would definitely rent it again and highly recommend it!

Beautiful color and fun dress!
I absolutely loved this dress! I wish I could keep this one. It's much more coral in person than it looks on the model, which you can kind of tell from this picture. I'm usually between a 0 and a 2. I tried on the 2 and it was way too big, literally hanging off of me, but the 0 fit perfectly. I wore it with a strapless bra so I didn't have to worry about the straps showing, and that worked great. The length came to just above my knee (I am short). The fabric was really light and breathable and comfortable, but study enough that it wasn't see-through. Loved this dress and would highly recommend it!

Gorgeous dress!
I absolutely loved this dress and wish I owned it! It was perfect for a special dinner on our honeymoon. I'm short (5'2") but with 4" shoes the length was almost perfect. The halter fit great and a little double-sided tape worked great to ensure it didn't gape open in the front. It was so flowy and comfortable and I'd highly recommend this dress!

Disappointed - Not as Nice as Expected
I ended up not wearing this dress, unfortunately. I rented it for my bridal shower and when it arrived, I was disappointed. I tried it on anyway, but really didn't love it. Fortunately, RTR was great and I exchanged it immediately for another dress that was perfect! Other reviewers have commented that the blue lining underneath the skirt hangs out a bit so I was not surprised by this, but I found that to be more unappealing than I expected. Also, the lace looked cheap and worn, and not as nice for what I was going for. The belt looked like a ribbon bought at a craft store. Overall it was just a very plain, underwhelming dress and I felt like I could've bought it very cheaply at a mass market store. Wouldn't recommend for a bride at their bridal shower, but maybe I'd wear it for everyday, like hanging out on a weekend or to work.

Perfect Honeymoon Dinner Dress!
This was such a fun dress to wear on a dinner date during my honeymoon in the Caribbean! It was a beautiful print and very nice material. The material was very thick and, with the help of some double-sided tape, I had no concerns at all about not wearing a bra. The length was just above the knee on me (I'm short - 5'2") and the skirt was flowy and fun. It was a comfortable dress. Only downside was that the halter was way too big on me, but I just used a safety pin at the nape of the neck to shorten the straps and it was perfect. I would love to rent this again and definitely recommend it!

Fun details and nice fabric!
I really liked this dress, more than I expected! The criss-cross in the back is very tasteful but adds a really fun detail. The print is very cute. And as other reviewers commented, the material is like a stiff cotton, which was not what I was expecting, but I really liked it. The only downside was that it's very low cut. I had to wear a black cami underneath; if I hadn't, I would have been way too exposed. The fit was great. I would recommend this dress!
