All the compliments!
This is definitely a body con style dress but the fabric was really nice and help keep everything smooth. Undies definitely need to be seamless. Also, I am an "inverted triangle" shape... My shoulders are wider than my hips... And the bottom half of this dress is pretty snug proportionately. If you are straight up and down or inverted triangle it's fairly true to size, tho snug. If you are any other shape id say go up one size. Also the shape and vent on the bottom doesn't allow you to take very big steps. ALL THAT SAID... I felt absolutely fabulous in the dress. Tons of compliments and my husband LOVED it!

LOVE LOVE. Fairly conservative that is somehow sexy!
This fit me perfectly. Since I'm 5'7" I wore this with 2' black wedges to work so that it didn't seem shorter than it actually was. The collar and cuffs laid perfectly, though the arms were a tiny bit short on me. The waist was at the perfect location and was fitted enough to accentuate a small waist, without being too tight. Super comfy too! Would definitely rent again; maybe with tights when it gets cooler!

LOVED the colors!
First, the contrast of colors were beautiful, and overall, the dress "fit", as in, it wasn't too tight or too loose (size 4). However the cut was a little off for my body. The ratio of waist to hip just didn't work. I had a lot of extra fabric in the waist, while the hip area generally fit (if I went to a size 2 the hips would be too tight). Also, the neckline seems much lower than on the model. The review photos are much more accurate. If you have boobs, this probably wont be work appropriate.

I wanted to like this dress!
I am typically a 4 (or equivalent) in most RTR dresses. I rented the equivalent in this dress and it was pretty big on me. I had A LOT of extra room in the waist and the sleeves stuck out far from my arms (sleeved dresses tend to be fitted or tight to my arms). I probably could've worn the 2, but since the dress is silk, I'm not sure how it would fit across my hips/butt. Beautiful muted fabric and pattern in a very classy cut.

More "weekend" skirt than "work" skirt
For a cute weekend look, the size was pretty much right; a little form fitting without looking too tight. I rented this as a work option and was a little too fitted for work. Also, the fabric wasn't what I expected. It was a "sweater" like material, like a nice fall transitional piece. I think I was expecting something with a bit more structure. Because it is more of a knit, the white part isn't a true bright white, and the black isn't a solid deep black. So I feel like this would look best paired with a bright fun color rather than a black or white blouse.

Funky and Fun!
I wanted something different for a weekend music festival and tried these sunglasses... I carefully searched all available glasses for fit and overall size. A lot of the RTR sunglasses are not only a little wide on the average face, but worse, are stretched out so they constantly slide down your nose! Not these though! They fit my narrow face and head pretty well! I loved the camo-ish colors too! More of a tortoise effect (with green) rather than a true camo pattern. Loved renting these!

Love the neoprene material
Vibrant colors, flattering fit, and pockets! I had to wear a strapless bra so my straps wouldn't show, however the fabric is thick enough to not wear one if you'd like. I wanted to fill in the top a bit so I chose to wear one!

Not for large bust
I LOVE wrap dresses. Unfortunately the cut made this a little too low to be tasteful for work, so I had to wear it with a cami, which took away from the look a bit. The wrap style is very flattering for small waists, just be careful the the skirt doesn't come "unwrapped" when sitting or with a gust of wind! This came with the tags on (brand new!) but the skirt part was terribly creased. The material is very sensitive to heat so I had to keep my iron pretty low... Meaning the creases didn't really come out.

Loved the material and color; odd fit.
The skirt had a very rich and expensive feel, but the colors made it fun and youthful. I paired it with a navy blouse and nude pumps as most others did. I think the material might have... Warped? by the time it got to me though. Like if a piece of clothing stretches with wear, but when you throw it in the dryer the fabric can go back to its original shape? The waist of the skirt was a bit large, so it sat lower than I think it should, which wasn't the most flattering.

Stunning Colors!
Great fit to the dress and beautiful cobalt-ish blue. It has 3 layers under the lace (nude underlay, a thicker material to keep the flair shape, and a slip layer.) It was pretty tight on the arms and didn't stretch much throughout the night. It has pockets if you like that sort of thing :)

Fun Rental
Very pretty and versatile color, and the strap could go from a "double" shorter strap or one "long" shoulder strap. It was a good size but there are 3 sections in the purse split with 2 dividers. This actually have the purse less room to fit things so that's why I'm giving it 4 stars. My check book length, trifold wallet that isn't stuffed, barely fit in any of the sections.

Comfy Classy
This was such an easy dress to wear. Classic colors and cut but still flattering. Not too tight in the waist, rib cage or bust. I wouldn't say this dress was "short" however when I sat down, it rides up a bit, to where my butt was almost on the chair, if that makes sense.

Sparkle sparkle!
Loved these bracelets. I have small wrists and hate when I have to constantly raise my hand to keep the bracelets from hanging out 'mid-hand'. These were small enough and light weight. I totally forgot about them while dancing and they stayed in place perfectly. Perfect amount of bling. A few of the bangles are starting to show wear on the sides (the gold part) but isn't too obvious.

"Stunning!" "Model!"
I wore this to an all white wedding and got so many compliments. The sequins are beautiful and shiny without being to loud. The length was perfect and the back is awesome as many have mentioned. I was a little self conscious, as I felt it gave me a bit of a pooch (can't see in this picture) but my husband insisted I was crazy. The skirt part is just fitted enough to be flattering without being too tight on the booty.

Awesome dress for a wine tour!
I wore this in the Texas Hill Country in the middle of July. It was light and breezy and super comfy. The cinching at the waist and the back design were very figure flattering. I am 5'7" and wore this with 1-2" wedges and it barely hit the ground. However the shoulder straps were very long on me. I had to safety pin both straps in the front to bring the scoop neck up some.

Can't wait for fall to rent this again!
Most RTR items I wear are 4's, so I was surprised the 2 fit so well. I am relatively broad across the shoulders but have a small waist. I was able to layer a cami, Express portofino, and a thin knit J Crew sweater under this and not feel like a sausage. The cut of the blazer was very flattering... although a few aunts came up to me to pull the back down... they thought it was folded under! :-D

Love that these fit my face :)
I have a narrow face and was surprised that these sunglasses fit my face and the arms fit my head. Zero problems with these sliding off my face! The frames are mirrored and they are a funky shape, but I loved trying something a little less conservative for a beach vacation.

Beautiful Floral Pattern
Based on reviews I sized up to a 6 when I am typically a 4. I wouldn't say the 6 was "too big", but I possibly could've worn the 4 for a more tailored fit. I added a black skinny belt just above the peplum to bring the waist in a little more. I also really liked how the peplum stopped in the very front, it kind of helped it to look more classy and grown up and added less visual bulk to the tummy. Great dress!

I ordered a size 8 and the waist was too tight so I was unable to wear it. I will try the 10 next time with the matching top because this skirt was so fun! The fabric has a lot of structure to it so the flair of skirt holds.

Good for a narrow face, but...
I really liked the color and shape of the glasses. The size was great for a narrow face; IE, the outside edge of the rims don't stick out too far. However, I think the arms of the frames have been stretched out from people putting them on their heads (stop doing that!) so they kept slipping off my nose every time I lowered by head even a tiny bit. RTR, please try to tighten the arms because these are great sunglasses!

Cute size; love Kate Spade!
The purse is a bit more pink than in the display photo but is still very pretty. It's a cute size for an event because it's big enough to hold more than just your ID, keys and gloss (like a clutch) but isn't big enough to to allow it to get heavy. I gave 3 stars because on my particular bag there were several scuffs and stains. It's a little disappointing because I want to show it off, but it has a visible stain or scuff on 3 of 4 sides :(

I wish I had something appropriate to wear these to!
I didn't read the text description and there weren't any reviews when I ordered these. They are pretty large, but not overly heavy. They are also clip ons. I don't really have a problem with either but I planned to do a lot of dancing and didn't feel comfortable that they would stay attached to my ear. Very pretty earrings though!

Wore this for my birthday date.
My husband loved this dress on me. It was super comfy and was able to go bra-less. I wore flat sandals and it dragged the floor a bit; any extra heel and it would've been the perfect length. The slot on the side was high enough to have some sex appeal but not too high. Loves the pattern too.

Business or sexy depending on the size!
First, the dress is very pretty; very flattering cut to show off a small waist. I rented a 2.... It "fit" but was a bit on the tight side. I rented it for a business function so a 4 would've been more appropriate. I may try again for that 4! Also, a lot of lace-dresses-with-an-underlay tend to be fairly thick. The material on this dress is more thin.

The material wasn't as thick as I'm used to.
Most RTR dresses are very high quality with thicker fabric than you find elsewhere. On this dress, it was a bit thinner. With the light color, I would've needed Spanx because you could see anything that wasn't perfectly smooth... It was a little too tight in the hip/butt area. I rented a 2 but probably needed a 4 to make it look more appropriate

Gorgeous fabric!
I typically wear a 2 or 4 in RTR dresses; however after reading the reviews I sized up for a 6. I'm so glad I did because it fit perfectly! There is very little stretch in the material, and no slit up the back. If the widest part of your body is your hips (pear) definitely size up. The fabric on the dress is amazing. So shiny and rich looking. I received a ton of compliments.

Beautiful lace. I felt super pretty in this all night. The 2 fit my figure a bit better but was way too short. I ended up wearing the 4 for the extra length. I didn't have any trouble with the back laying flat but I am a little bit more broad across the shoulders.

Loved the colors for a beach rehearsal dinner
The colors of this dress were dreamy; so unique! Sheath style dresses work best in my figure and this one was no exception. I could for into the 2 but felt the 4 would be more appropriate for the dinner. Due to how the "strap" area cuts in you would most likely need to wear a strapless bra. EDIT: Rented this a second time... Still in love!

Shiny & Holds the Essentials
I really loved the color of this clutch. It had a shiny, sequin look, but much classier. It held my phone, gloss, id/cards and aaallllmost my compact. To be fair my compact is on the thicker side; had it been a thinner compact it would have fit too. Latch worked great.

The size and shape of this necklace made it the perfect statement piece for a "Little Black Dress" bachelorette party. It sparkles beautifully. Only issue: when I opened the box on arrival the chain was broken. I used needle nose pliers to close the gap in the link holding it together and it solved the problem!

I have a love hate relationship with this dress. It photographs beautifully and did great things for my curves; there are these panels of shinier fabric around the waist. I was a little uncomfortable in it though. I kept pulling at the arm holes so that my bra wouldn't show.

Classy AND Trendy
I wore this for my rehearsal dinner. I felt so classy but a little sexy and trendy too. The darker grey is kind of a chiffon-ish material. The light grey fabric was in great shape but the darker grey was looking a little frayed. I only note this because I wasn't expecting it; however I don't think it took away from the dress; I still LOVED it.
