Gorgeous, High Quality, Ran Small
Slight sheen on the material, great cut, interesting without being too showy. Runs small. I usually a 6/8 and I couldn't even zip the 8...very small in the ribcage and I have a small bust. I'd size up 1 or even 2 but definitely rent.

Perfect Casual Summer LWD
I wore this dress to go wedding dress shopping on a hot summer day in the City. Its lightweight and the length was perfect for me...just covering my knees, but I'm also 5'8 so on a shorter woman I could see it being long and having more of a middy look. It was slightly big in the waist but I think the 6 would have been too tight so a simple belt did the trick to define the waist more. Also, it has an eyelet lace pattern all over it. Very pretty but I didn't really see that in the picture online so I thought I'd mention that here. The perfect Unlimited item. I'll definitely select again later in the summer.

Perfect for beach wedding!
Yumi Kim is the best. Very true to size around the rib cage and in amount of fabric and the adjustable straps were great. I wore fashion tape in the front which was necessary but didn't have any problems once secured. The colors are bright and really give the dress a tropical pop. Only issue was length, I rented the MR and ML and there wasn't really any difference between the length of the two. At 5' 8" I was just fine in it wearing flats. I would not have been able to wear heels so even shorter ladies might want to consider the long size if they are going to wear heels.

Great Print!
Great Casual Dress but I ended up using it as a beach cover up and it was perfect! Sizing all normal and as expected, although I would maybe size up if you wanted it really flowy. I wasn't able to belt it like some other users but depending on your shape that might work to give it some structure. A great Unlimited piece.

Unique and gorgeous!
Dress fit great overall. Waist was as expected and not tight. Straps are not adjustable but I found them to be the right length and they didn't fall down at all. Skirt is very full and almost triangular out from the waist so its wide but I didn't find that to be an issue. Very flattering for pear shaped like myself. As others have said, can't wear a bra, even a nubra showed if worn normally. I'd highly recommend fashion tape for the front of you have a smaller chest. It was 100% necessary and made the dress wearable. Overall LOVE this dress...rent it!

LOVE THIS NECKLACE!
The perfect statement necklace. Looks really high quality and pairs great with a black dress for night out, white blouse and jeans on the weekend or collared shirt for work. Totally versatile and a great rent....I might want to buy.

Love it so much I've Rented Twice!
This blazer is a great staple piece. The cut and proportions are perfect and the color is a little more purple/plum then it looks like redish maroon as in the picture which I actually like better. I've selected it twice and rotate it in and out of my collection with my Unlimited Subscription. I'd highly recommend renting.

High Quality; Color not as pictured.
Positive: The shape and size of this bag are great for work and, of course, its Kate Spade so high quality! And mine came in great condition. Negative: Not at all the color pictured. I thought it looked like a blush soft pink in the picture but it arrived and it is dull and grey-ish with a hint of purple. Not what I was looking for.

PERFECT! Combination of Weekend Fun & Office Appropriate.
This jacket is perfect. Thick, luxurious wool with leather arms and an interesting tuxedo cut. I wore it Saturday night with a black tunic, leather leggings and booties for a fun "rocker" look and am currently wearing it at my desk over a simple black wrap dress for a more professional but still fashion forward look. Sleeves are the right length and the shoulders have some stretch to them, making it very comfortable to wear. Rent it.

Perfect. Never returning it!
I received this ring as part of RTR's Unlimited accessory program and I'm definitely keeping it for a few months. I wore it to a black tie dinner (paired with the Kate Space Opening Night Statement Earrings...perfect together) and so far have also worn it to work with a simple black wrap dress and with jeans & a white tee shirt for a fun casual weekend look. I'm 5' 8" and my hands are large and it fit well...inner adjustable band would work for smaller hands but you could also wear it as a thumb ring in a worst case scenario. The stone is big but not obnoxious and super fun.

Gorgeous but Heavy
These earrings are absolutely beautiful and pair very well with the Kenneth Lane Jay Polished Crystal Ring I also rented. I love them but negatives...very heavy. I wore them for dinner but had to take them off later in the evening. They are also larger than I expected...that didn't bother me but just know that going in. Enjoy.

Odd shape, Odd length, Odd Fit.
I wouldn't recommend this dress and didn't wear it. Uncomfortable and cut very weird in my opinion. I love idea of it but I'd make sure to have a back-up.

Cute, Preppy Fun!
This dress was wonderful. I wore it to a fancy restaurant on a weekend getaway to Newport, RI so it very much fit the style of the locale as well as my taste. The top is stretchy and very comfortable with plenty of arm room. The drop waist was great so show off my small waist but camo my wide hips/thighs. The white skirt is very poofy.. which I thought was a good thing...and has a damask texture to it and very thick material which gave it great structure. It is very short and I wouldn't have felt comfortable without tights but knew that and loved how it looked with them.Also, I don't like my legs so others may be fine without the tights to cover. I finished with booties to make it a little funkier/fun and a statement necklace. Great dress, great price and would rent again.

THE BEST DRESS I'VE EVER RENTED!
I'm a very frequent RTR renter and this was absolutely the #1 best dress to date. The lace is super high quality and the skirt's puffiness factor is just the right balance between classy and fun. Do not let it scare you...Khanh strikes the perfect balance in fullness. Like a ballerina but you can still move comfortably. The straight boat neck also balances the bottom perfectly. The dress is short so I personally wouldn't have felt comfortable without the tights but with them was totally fine. I added the belt but ended up taking it off mid-way through the event...looked great with or without. WHEN you rent this dress, I would make sure to take it out of the bag before wearing and spray the nude under liner beneath the tulle with static guard just to be safe. I can't wait wear this again.

Fun, unique, high quality!
I rented this dress for my 30th birthday party and absolutely LOVED it! It is extremely high quality and the feathers are fun and unique without being too over the top. It was a quirky take on the classic black cocktail dress. Some sizing notes: I am a pear shaped girl with a smaller bust and waist. At times my top is a 4/6 where my hips can be an 8 or even a 10. The top is very well tailored so it needs to FIT to look good (which the 6 did) BUT there is a liner under the feathers layer that was super tight. You couldn't tell at all by looking at me in the dress but it was uncomfortable and I was pulling it down/adjusting all night. I received tons of complements and it was a great birthday dress BUT I'd size up for the 2nd size and those with heavier legs or if you really plan to dance all night..should be weary.

Very cool dress...some sizing details to note below.
This dress is beautiful, fun/funky with the shoulders and good quality. I wore it to a date night at the Broadway show Once and had several women stop me to complement. Having said that there are some sizing notes to be aware of. I wore the medium. I am 5'8' and certainly curvy but have a smaller top and waist. It was TIGHT! I probably would have worn the large but they were out of that size. The dress has some give but is not super stretchy and is definitely short so I'd size up for the backup size. I would not have been able to wear without the tights. The detail on the shoulder is the best part but it makes it hard to lift your arms so this is not a dress for dancing. Overall, loved it and the red design is like a warm felt fabric so its a prefect winter dress. Totally rent this dress but just be clear about the size and limitations. Enjoy!

Great, Sexy & Classy Dress!
Wore this dress for NYE dinner at a steakhouse with my boyfriend. He couldn't stop commenting on how sexy it was but I still looked classy and appropriate for dinner. The cut out back is great because it is high enough to still allow you to wear a normal strapless bra. My shoulders tend to be a bit broad and the cap sleeves on this dress were very flattering...perfect neckline. Fit totally true to sizebut I'd recommend spanx or black tights, which I wore, to smooth everything out. This dress hugs your curves in all the right places...just be ready to rock them. Sad I didnt get a good picture of the full length look but trust me you want to order this dress.

Beautiful fabric and forgiving cut made for a great, comfortable dress! Love it!
The fabric looks heavy but its really light-wieght to wear. The scoop neck in the back made it impossible to wear a regular bra so i just went without but if you need more support, plan on getting a special low back bra. I also really recommend wearing the black tights...the fabric was just slightly scratchy and I think without the tights I would have been bothered. I wasn't bothered at all with the tights on and I absolutely LOVED this dress. I wore it for a fall day wedding and it transitioned perfectly from day to night. Order it!

Luxurious and Fabulous Gown!
I wore this gown to a black tie NYC wedding and it was awesome. I literally got complements all night from people I didn't even know. Overall, I truly loved this gown and felt like a movie star in it but a few notes to be aware of. The dress itself is a bit heavy but not unbareable. If you are bigger in the chest area definitely size up...Im a smaller B and it was very fitted. It was also too long...I'm 5'8 and even with 2 inch heels it was dragging all night. I actually like the look of it gathering on the floor but hard for dancing and stairs! I should have gone with the 6R instead of the 6L. The sparkle on the dress was beautiful but not too much, classy but with some pizzazz!

LOVE the color, love the dress!
I wore this dress to a formal wedding in Long Island. I recieved tons of complements all night and people particularly loved the color. It stood out without being over the top and I felt super glam and classy. In general, I thought the dress was a little small around the bust. I do not have a large chest and still had to have my roommate help (for several minutes) to get the side zipper to close. If you are a busty girl I would def size up. Also note that the material is chiffon and light, I thought it looked more satin in the picture. Either way, this dress rocked.
