Cute and casual
Very easy to wear and comfortable for a hot summer day. Add a belt for further waist definition. Would rent again.

Lovely colors
Beautiful colors, and the fabric had a nice feel. The top is way more gaping/open than the stock picture. I used fashion tape, but it would not have been appropriate for an in-person meeting.

Not special
I love this brand, but this felt inexpensive. It was clingy in the wrong places. Just a basic cotton dress.

TONS and TONS of compliments. It must run super small because a 2X felt like a large. Worth the rental!

I've been on the hunt for a leather jacket, and this one is perfect. Great for curvier gals, but be sure to size up.

Too short and clingy for work
Was hoping to wear this for work, but it came well above the knee (I'm 5'7") and the fabric was too clingy despite the fit being okay. Pretty color but didn't feel comfortable in this.

Strange fit; didn't wear
Tight across the shoulders and loose in other places. Would have liked it better if it were more of a tunic; too short for my torso. Didn't like it in person nearly as much as in pictures.

Favorite rental ever!
I'm obsessed and will probably have to rent it again. Felt SO good on. I felt lovely and confident all night. Very thick fabric though; wouldn't recommend for warm weather.

Beautiful, unique cocktail dress
I loved the way this fit and looked. Not your run-of-the-mill LBD. Great way to make a statement while still looking elegant.

Pretty but low cut
I really like this one, but it's rather low cut. Not for corporate environments; okay for creative companies though it showed a little more than I was comfortable with. Would rent again.
Lumi Wrap Dress
B Collection by Bobeau
Size Worn: XLR
Usual Size: 14
Height: 5' 7"
Bust: 36C
TONS of compliments
If I had a dollar for every compliment I received while wearing this, I could have bought it 3x over. It ran a little big, and if I wore a purse over my shoulder, it pulled the hem up over my belly button, which I didn't like. I felt like I needed to adjust the top pretty regularly, but I loved how cute I felt in it. If it weren't for the slightly off fit, I would definitely have bought this top to keep forever. Great for a short-term wear, though.

Flowy and comfortable
This was really pretty and very comfortable. I loved that the v-neck has a little stitch in it to keep it from gaping. It's a little robe-like, but I felt good in it.

Bad fit
Why is there not a zipper or button so that this will fit properly? I couldn't get this down over my chest, even though I could tell it would fit once I got it on.

Beautiful color
I loved the color and draping of this dress, as well as the black detailing on the inside of the bell sleeves. The fabric was nice and thick (though didn't feel overly hot), however, you could still see my belly button even through a pair of shapers. Not sure how a thick fabric accentuated my tummy, but oh well. It was nice for some meetings and a work event. Got lots of compliments on the color.

Comfortable and easy to wear
I got some nice compliments for this one, but I couldn't give it 5 stars because it really highlighted my mummy-tummy. Glad I sized up! It was comfortable and felt really good on. Highly recommend if you're traveling for work. Wish it had nipped in a bit more at the waist...

Tons of compliments
Fun, vibrant dress! Everywhere I went, I got tons of compliments. I felt super confident for meetings and more. It fit nicely and covered what needed to be covered. Will definitely rent again! The one thing I didn't love, and which kept me from giving it 5 stars, as that when the bell sleeves flop back over my arms, you can see the white underside of the pattern. I felt that this made it seem like it was a bit cheaper than it really was.

This is a beautiful dress. I rented it for a photo shoot, and I absolutely loved it. It is TIGHT though. Even sizing up, it was still snug.

Beautiful and comfortable
I received a ton of compliments for this dress. It was comfortable and easy to wear. The slit up the thigh makes it impossible to wear Spanx, but fortunately I didn't need it. I'm normally a 12, and the 12 fit, but it pulled a little and made the thigh slit gape. The 14 was roomier (though a little big up top) and easier to wear. At 5'7", I would have preferred a slightly longer dress for wearing it with heels, but it was fine. I'd rent this again!

Meh
I reviewed this as my surprise bling. Completely underwhelmed. The dress I ordered has a gold zipper, and this is silver. Just wasn't thought out. I didn't even wear this.

Great party dress
Love the flouncy skirt! I felt lovely in this. It was pretty big on top and was glad to have the smaller size. Was able to get away with a strapless bra, which was great. Definitely recommend.

Beautiful dress for black tie optional charity event
This was form-fitting and very snug, but I felt beautiful... which is key post-baby! I'm glad I ordered the extra size up. I'm a pretty true size 12, and I barely got the 14 over my hips. I received many compliments throughout the evening, though. Lovely dress.

The prefect clutch for a gala
This fit my iPhone and lipstick perfectly. My husband tried to sneak his phone in there as well, but the clutch was too small (oh, darn!). The gold added a great accent to the emerald green dress I wore.

Amazing color and neckline
First things first, this was my first choice dress, and though it fit great, the fine folks at RTR had to send me a different dress because the boning in this dress was starting to poke through the fabric and stab me. However, I called RTR, and they were incredibly gracious and emailed me a number of dresses to choose from since my size wasn't available in this style on the date of my gala. My new dress arrived in time, and I loved it! Thanks RTR!

Gorgeous color and beautiful, flowing fabric
First, this was a replacement gown that was overnighted to me after my first choice didn't work out. Excellent customer service, RTR!!! At 14 weeks pregnant, this was the perfect gown to make me feel lovely when right now all I feel is ambiguously fat. Pre-pregnancy, I probably would have been a size 10R, but the dress is definitely forgiving in the lower tummy area. It is very comfortable without being slouchy, and, had I been up to it, I would have danced the night away with the skirt swirling all around me. Maybe next year I'll rent it again post-baby :)
