Vibrant and perfect for everday
The gold buttons really make this otherwise simple dress stand out! The color is gorgeous, and the material has a heaviness to it that ensures its quality. I loved it so much I purchased it!

So sparkly!
I loved this dress for an Old Hollywood themed formal. I got lots of complements on this one. It was very comfortable, and I didn't have to wear a bra with it. My only complaint is that the draping on the sides made me look wider in the hips than I actually am. Regardless, it's a great dress that I'd rent again.

Beautiful!
This dress hugs everything in a really great way! I didn't end up wearing it because the top slid down a little too much for my comfort (I'm small chested), and it was too short for me in heels (I'm 5'4.5").

Great color but not as form fitting as I'd like
This dress is gorgeous and the color is unique. I really wanted to wear it, but the dress was way too long. Also, the dress has a built-in corset that zips first and then you zip up the dress. The corset fit perfectly, but when I zipped up the dress itself, the dress hung loosely around my body. Had the dress fit tighter, this would have been a showstopper! I ordered a size 0, so there was no way to exchange it for a tighter fit.

Sexy!
I decided not to wear this as I preferred a more conservative dress. If you're looking to make a statement with some va-va-voom, then this is your dress! It is beautiful, but the front exposes more than pictured. Also, you'll have to wear pasties, as even a sticky/backless bra still showed when I tried it on. The train isn't too long, but it was too long for me when wearing 4" heels (I'm 5'4.5").

Sparkly!
Beautiful, structured clutch. It was great for holding lipstick and cards, but I had difficulty closing the bag with my cell phone inside (I have a Samsung Galaxy S5). If you have a large phone, this may not be the bag for you.

Strange fit
I didn't wear this because the fit was off. the capped sleeves were too short for my broad shoulders. Also, the waistband hit a little higher than my natural waist, which looked fine in the front but weird in the back. Maybe I should have sized up in this. Nevertheless, it was extremely cute. Maybe I'll try again in a bigger size next time.

Great fit!
Diane runs a little small on me, so I usually wear a 2 in her dresses. This one was perfect with a black came underneath for work.

Comfortable, versatile, and professional
This blazer was a great way to spice up my work wardrobe while keeping it conservative. This would also be great on the weekend with a pair of jeans. Definitely recommend!

Way too big but so lovely!
I rented this dress for a backyard wedding in a size 0 and size 2, but even the size 0 was too large. The length was great, but this dress was clearly made for busty girls. As a 32B, this dress had nothing to hang onto up top! It is very lightweight and beautifully made, so I highly recommend it for summer and for ladies with a larger bust. Luckily, RTR was able to overnight a different dress to me, which makes this such an amazing company!

Perfectly casual and chic at the same time!
I wore this to a country concert. It was perfect! I received so many compliments. I really want this romper to be a permanent piece of my wardrobe. The material is lightweight, comfortable, breathable, and high quality. Love, love, love this!

I loved these earrings! Not too heavy. My only complaint was that they hung to the side, so they weren't as noticeable when I took a front-facing photo.

Looked like a celebrity!
Loved this! I wore it for a girls' night out, and everyone kept telling me that I looked like a celebrity. It does fit a little tight on your bottom, so if you have some junk in the trunk, go up a size. I would definitely rent again!

Great color!
I loved the color, thickness of material, and the fit of this dress! It was warm enough to wear to the Del Mar racetrack at night and super comfy. I rented the XS because it was the only size available, which was fine, but I would have been better off going with the S as this dress shows every bump from the waist up. My only complaint was that the back of the dress dipped down a bit low, so I had to wear a stick-on/backless bra since my regular strapless bra showed big time above the zipper. Overall, great rental. I would definitely rent again, but I would go with the Small next time.

Great dress for a vacation in Jamaica!
I am usually a size 2, but the size 0 fit better in the top. The straps are not adjustable. My only complaint was that the bust in the size 2 was too baggy, and the bust in the size 0 was a little too small. The front clasp in the bust of the dress was visible since it pulled too tightly, but leaving the clasp undone revealed my bra. Overall, I was happy with the dress.

I was very impressed that the earrings stayed put all night long. They never hurt my ears, even through some pretty crazy dancing. They were a little bigger than I expected but looked great with my hair down.

The dress was very comfortable and super easy to dance in. A bit tight in the bust and loose in the waist but overall a stunner.
