Fun and glam, a bit sheer in spots
I loved the look of this dress, between the bell sleeves and the pattern it was very fun. I have broad shoulders and a wide rib cage, so it was a bit sheer across the chest (I imagine same would be true of women with a larger bust), but nothing that was too noticeable or problematic.

Bust: 38A
Classy and professional
A bit shorter in length but with tights and boots, great look for work. The fit was a bit tight on my chest/shoulders so I opted for a cami and the top two buttons undone because it had a bit of a pulled look when fully buttoned. The cami look worked well though.

Great dress but a bit see through
Loved this dress but just be prepared, you can kinda see through it with certain lighting. The weave is just open enough that you should probably wear a slip or at least boy short underwear.

Cute but shapeless
The material and detail are fun but it really is just like a sack that balloons out at the bottom. Maybe a belt would've helped, I don't know. Still wore it multiple times with tall boots, cute enough look.

Great dress, will likely rent again. V is a bit deep so the front just needs a pin.

Cute but a big tight on forearm
Cute shirt, not 5-start just because the openings for the arms were tight on my forearms.

Sophisticated and chic
So many compliments each time I wore this piece. The blue band around the waist is quite structured with a snap, so if you have a wide ribcage and/or your build is more straight up and down versus going in at the waist, I might recommend a size up.

Cute summer dress
Cute but a little too low cut, kept needing to adjust to have it cover my bra.

Can't wear
Probably three inches shorter on me than the model, unflattering in the hips/midsection. Just not cute, won't be wearing.

Unexpectedly loved
Thought this would be something I'd rent just to try for something different, but ended up loving it and getting so many compliments. Cooler weather is a must though - it'll get hot!

Great dress except for buttons at the neck
There are three buttons at the neck and the closures are so weak, either from wear or just from the type that they are, that they kept popping open for absolutely no reason. It's not like it's tight on the neck - but if I shifted my shoulder or exhaled too forcefully, the buttons would pop open.

Fun and different
Great example of why I use RTR - very specific look and not something I'd usually buy, but it made a statement and was perfect for a rehearsal dinner.

Better in person
I liked this even more than I expected. Very flattering and the slit adds a little something extra, but still tasteful enough for work. (Make sure you put it on before you do your hair and makeup, neck opening is a squeeze.)

I will probably buy it, honestly. It goes perfectly with any outfit and elevates your look. I got so many compliments.

Unique but odd
The beauty of RTR is trying things that you wouldn't normally buy - and this was one. It was not my typical style, and definitely unique. "Kind of weird but still cute," as my friend commented. Too odd for me to love it, particularly how it cuts upward to expose the sides of the stomach.

Tight for athletic build, but still stunning
Wore it for a date night and loved how fancy I felt. It was tight in my shoulders and lats, to the point that I was uncomfortable by the end of the evening, so I would size up if I rent again (which I might).

Small was unavailable so I got a medium, and it was still a hit even if a bit oversized. (I would say runs TTS.)

Beautiful fall dress
Perfect dress for date night, and perfect example of why to use RTR: statement dress that I got so many compliments on and wouldn't be able to repeat any time soon. It would have been fine as is but I wore it with a thin black belt to give a bit of shape.

Love this!
Might be the first item I buy from RTR - super flattering and a great versatile piece for fall. I would purchase in the next size down though. At a "regular" store I get XS more often than S, but I figured I'd need an S with designer sizing (even though some reviews do suggest going with a smaller size). I would agree with that feedback and advise the smaller size. I still wore it and loved the skirt but you can see from the side view that there is too much fabric at the wait and hips.

Wanted to love it but not a great fit
I don't consider myself to have a particularly long torso, but the seam of this was so high up my bum that it was incredibly uncomfortable to just try on. I didn't even attempt to sit down. 😬 This is also quite snug in the ribcage for the center buttons. Ladies with more of an hourglass shape would probably fare better.
