Cute for spring
The cups have that sewn external lining that are way too small for me (like a 36D), but they aren't too obviously stitched

Nice to wear over a long sundress to turn it into more of a work look. Nothing special though

Just ok
What you see is what you get. Fabric is a little thicker than a typical silk slip dress material, more of like a thick jersey. Nothing special

Colors were lovely - wore as a cover up and also with nothing underneath for a cheeky sun set cruise. Asymmetric neckline isn't incredibly flattering, but not bad. Won't do you any favors but would rent anyways

Loved it
A bit loose in the chest (I'm a 34D) but overall fit great, quality was excellent and received tons of compliments. Did a simple double knot tie in the back and it draped nicely, no bow needed. If you're considering sizing down bc you're between sizes, wouldn't rec

Very romantic, doesn't feel too too sexy but you can tuck the ties in and show a little more chest if you want

Very sophisticated
Loved this look, easily polished and sophisticated. Buttons aren't that difficult, you only need the top one unbuttoned to get it on. I didn't find the shoulders or arms too tight like some reviewers mentioned, and normally I'm quite sensitive to that sort of thing
Jacquard Bow Neck Blouse
Adam Lippes x RTR
Size Worn: 8
Usual Size: 10

Just ok
Not a show stopper, but very soft. Doesn't really do much for your figure or make your outfit, still needs styling. Just a half step up from a basic cardigan. I appreciated the detail on the buttons but don't expect the quality of this material will hold up after it's been through a few rental cycles based on how it was wearing after 2 days in the office.

Classic
Runs true to size - tough for larger cup sizes, the black section kind of cuts in awkwardly so you'll need a sturdy strapless bra

Runs large but cute
Not very warm but cute. Go down at least one size. Quality was ok, started to show some wear after a couple months or I probably would have bought instead of renting it for so long.

Repeat Rental
Have rented this dress more times than I can count, should just buy it by now but I'm always changing sizes. Perfect for day to night with work though, wish they would do more patterns in the same material and size

Maybe it's from the tag RTR adds, but couldn't get this to stay down in the back

Just a bit small
This ran a bit small on me, especially in the shoulders, but was able to make it work for a NYE event. You'll probably need to tape the girls, and it isn't the comfiest dress, but I've yet to find a comfortable sequin dress that's also tight fitting

Odd neckline, wish I had noticed it before. Kind of gives a uniboob look

Adore this dress
Absolutely adored this dress, kept it for months before finally returning it once it was out of season. I would have bought it if it wasn't so expensive, maybe next year. Excellent quality, ironed it once when I received it and it stayed virtually wrinkle free for the next two months. Be prepared to receive lots of compliments! A tad short, but I was still fine wearing it to work cocktail hours.

Okay
Nothing too special, wouldn't rent again but also don't regret it. This trends tends to accentuate your midsection, which I didn't love

Loved this dress and received so many compliments. No need to wear a bra with it. On the shorter side, but still totally appropriate. Would rent again!

Heavy and thick, but feels expensive
Does tend to lose it's shape after a wear or two - putting it in the dryer might help get the shape back

LOVE
Loved this, it was such a cozy sweater. Not itchy, and the colors are fab. It’s a little short, not cropped, but it hits just under the belt. I wouldn’t buy it, only because it did start pilling pretty quickly after a wear or two

Not really a flattering fit, unless you’re really going for an oversized, unstructured look
