Super Cute, Super Comfy
I have become a big fan of these types of dresses. So comfortable! Looks great with sandals for a weekend BBQ or throw on Converse to tour the town. Slide on some wedges for casual Fridays at the office (though if you are tall, the length is questionable for office attire). I would definitely rent again. I would probably order a size 2 next time, as this was a little big.

My Go To for Comfort & Style--dressy or casual
This is one of my favorite dresses. I wish I could afford to buy it for my own closet. It's SO comfortable, fits perfectly, and goes with heels or flats. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!

Summer Dress
This dress is cute, but a little snug in the bust. I'm a 32D and have broad shoulders, it's a little uncomfortable in the armpits. It's also a little bit short. I had intended to wear heels, but that made the lack of length even more evident so I opted for ballet flats. I probably will not rent again for work, but could pair with sandals for a weekend event.

Cute, Unique Work Dress
Long workdays make finding something comfy, yet professional very important. This dress is one of those dresses. It's not too tight, but still gives my figure some shape. It's comfortable and quite stylish--I got a few compliments. As another reviewer noted, the faux suspenders are a little odd, but they make the dress unique and really don't get in the way. You can remove them if you prefer. I chose a size 2. I think I could have gone down to a zero, but it would have been snug in the shoulders and bust--I have broader shoulders and back. I will definitely rent this one again!

The Perfect Work Dress for a Pro
The fabric, look, and feel of this dress is amazing! I ordered a size 4 after reading the reviews and fit guidelines. The dress was too big. So, I sent it back and got a size 2. That fit perfectly. There is a lot of room in the waist/hip area. I could even do a 0 for a better fit in the waist, but then the dress would not fit in the bust/shoulders and it would be tight on my hips. I'm really happy with this dress. It's very professional. The fabric is lightweight and lays nicely. The color is a perfect muted maroon. This is a must-rent-again for important meetings.

Awesome Dress, VERY Small
I couldn't even pull this on. I'm a pretty standard size 2 in most items butthis was tiny. I had to send back unworn.

Casual Friday to Concert in the Park
I went out on a limb renting this dress--I'm not really a ruffles girl. However, the dress is adorable, frilly, flirty. You have a lot of options to make it work for your personal fit and style: with the belt, without the belt, flats, wedges. The fabric is beautiful! I will say if you have a large bust, you may want to order up one size. I am a 32D and it was quite snug. Other than that, I highly recommend!

Weekend in Wine Country
I got this dress for those little weekend BBQs or getaways with my husband. This one was perfect for the spring season. Very comfortable, yet still slimming thanks to the belt. Paired with sandals to sip wine and romp around the vineyards--it wasn't too flowy, so there was little risk a "Marilyn Monroe incident." The sleeves were easy to roll up when it got hot and I shrugged on a fitted denim jacket as the sun set and temperatures chilled. When we went to dinner later that evening, I grabbed a pair of wedges to jazz things up a bit. I know I will rent this again in the fall, as I can see it going well with cowboy boots too!

Cute! Cute! Cute!
This dress is truly Kate Spade--it's just cute! Fitted enough but with a little flair for a fun Friday at the office. The XS fit like a glove. No zippers and a cozy fabric. I could see swapping out my heels for sandals and taking this dress out for a summer weekend event.

Too Stylish!
This dress is just too cool. Who ever thought a thick tweed-like fabric could look so amazing? The dress fit like a glove. It was little short when I sat down. The lining would also ride up as I walked. No one could tell but it was bit uncomfortable for me. I felt really stylish in this dress.

FABULOUS! Dress
I wore this to a board meeting. I felt so stylish yet appropriately conservative for work. I got compliments all day long. It fit so well that I had to make this one mine, so I bought it! It does run small especially at the top, so if you have broad shoulders (like me) order one size up. I first ordered a 2 and it fit everywhere except zipping to the top. The 4 fit perfectly.

Awkward Cut & Fabric
This dress is adorable in concept only. I took a risk ordering a dress with multi-directional stripes and hemlines. It looked terrible on me. I did not wear it out of the house. I can't decide if I needed to go down a size or if it was the weird angles, but this dress did not fit well at all. It was kind of big all over, but clung in a way that you could see every lump and bump of my body. Not flattering. I do not recommend.

Fab Color
Really excited about the beautiful shade of blue of this dress, but desperately disappointed in the fit. The hips and waist were a bit blousy for my taste. I don't think going down a size would help, as the dress fit perfectly at the top. I believe this dress is cut to be a bit loose in the hips/waist.

Adorable Lil' Polka Dot Dress
I was deeply saddened that I did not get to wear this dress in public. Absolutely adorable. I got into it in my bedroom, but getting out of it was a chore. I have broad shoulders and struggled to get the dress to zip in the back (definitely a "honey-do"). However, zipping up the dress meant minimal t-rex moves with my arms. I will order again, but definitely go up a size. As a new RTR member, I am still figuring out sizing that works for me with these labels.

The Wrap Dress: Closet Staple
I love wrap dresses and, as a new RTR member, I was thrilled to try a real DVF. However, in trying to learn the size and fit of these brands, I picked the wrong size. I ordered a size 0, but a size 2 would have fit better. The dress did not align with my shoulders. Nonetheless, you can't go wrong with a DVF wrap dress--classy and stylish every day. A little low cut, so I wore a tank underneath to keep it work appropriate but would have been an easy switch to evening.
