Vibrant colors
It is short but not a problem for me since I am 5'2. However, it stretched out during the day and was not as flattering after a few hours. I still think this is a solid vacation or weekend dress and you can wear a normal bra.

Beautiful and easy
size down on this one because it is very generous. I still think it was very beautiful and the V neck is so flattering.

Great for weekend or vacation
Beautiful in person. Could be used as a maternity dress. I'm a solid size 4 and went with the XS so I recommend sizing down one size.

Mother's Day nightmare
I rented for Mother's Day and this is terrible piece. Not only it is huge but super short for me and anyone else who is 5 feet or taller. It's also sheer in the top. Do not rent.

So comfortable and colors are great
This is that one piece you can take anywhere for any event and any weather. Very flattering and comfortable. The pant is longer on me since I am only 5'2 but looks great with black pumps. Size down for this one. RTR only had the small and I wish I had rented the XS. I paired this with the Dalliah Jacket and it looked great!

Fun and unique dress
I am 5'2 and this dress was perfect lenght on me with flats. The color is Navy Blue and I did not noticed that but no big deal. The dress runs true to size but if you are in between sizes go down a size. This would be perfect for Pear and Hourglass shapes. It could also be perfect for work, brunch, dinner or a semi formal event with the right accessories.

Very Big!
Size down at least 2 sizes!. I am normally XS-S and the XS was huge on me. The belt helped a lot but wish they had XXS. Beautiful color, lots of compliments but too much extra fabric. If you are size L I would recommend getting size S, etc.

Very Kate Spade, one of a kind!
I rented this dress using unlimited membership and will keep it for Easter Sunday because it came brand new with tags. Is is really pretty, good quality. I think it is true to Kate Spade size or maybe a bit large. If you are in between size I would go with the smaller size unless you have a larger chest. I am 34 A and this fit comfortable everywhere.

I love this dress and the quality is amazing! I would order a size down and even 2 sizes if you are very petite with small chest. I am normally size 2 and would have like the 0 better.

Too small
This dress is pretty and could be great only if you order at least 2 sizes bigger. The 4 did not fit but almost did so I'm sure the 6 would have worked. I'm normally 0-2.

Beautiful!
Great for petites like me. Fit perfectly with wedges. Used a regular bra. Do not go down size since it is fitted in the chest. I do not recommend for bigger than C cup. Great colors starting with light purple, turquoise, green and light blue. It is warm so it might not be good for any weather 85 degrees or hotter.

Ready for Jamaica!!!
I rented this dress for my upcoming vacation. It is longer than expected but I fixed with tape as you can see in the picture. It is airy and very vibrant, perfect for an outside event. I noticed it also runs big I will recommend size down for your backup. I am normally a size 2 and wore extra small in this one. I took one star because it's way too long.

This is a great rental. I was afraid it would be too hot but it is light weight and perfect for those chili mornings. It is not too over the top so I can even wear this to work and the colors are just perfect for fall.

I got this as part of the unlimited program and I love it. Bigger than expected so no a good idea to go out but great for a Friday to work and drinks after. Great quality, everything fits (even my ballerina flats with my wallet, glasses and makeup).

Good quality but too big for me
I really like this but it was way too big for me and my body in general. If you like drama and being the center of attention then this is for you but if not stay away from it. The quality is great!

Great LBD!
I rented for ladies night out and it was great and comfortable. If you are 0/2/4 order XS as the fabric has a lot (I seriously mean a lot) of stretch. I also wore this to a dinner with boyfriend the next day and he could not stop telling me how great I look!

It did not fit me but it was very nice!!!
This dress is well made, great quality and color. I could not wear it because I ordered a bigger size for backup and both 2/4 were big. I am wearing size 2 in the picture and you can’t tell but it was big in the top. I would say it is true to size and I might have lost a few pounds. Also, if you are petite this dress is long. Overall, amazing dress and might try to rent when my size is available in the future.
