Glowing in Gold
I wore it to a fashion exhibition and absolutely loved it. I usually wear an extra small but I ordered the small and it fit perfectly (I know these dresses tend to run tight).

This is a great day to night option. I wore it to both during the day, then to dinner. The silhouette accents the waist - and it has pockets!

I wore this flowy summer dress to dinner and on a weekend girls' spa getaway. I love the print and material but the waist was a bit loose. I couldn't use a belt because the tie wrap is sewn onto the side.

This was the perfect jacket for a spring trip to wine country. I sized down after reading other reviews - good thing, too, because it's very boxy. One big downsize: no side pockets to warm up your hands!

Love the print! Very flattering but the top was a little tight so ladies with larger busts should maybe size up.

I am usually weary of knits but this dress was very flattering - it hugs your curves but isn't too tight. It can also be dressed up or down so it's very versatile. Would definitely recommend.

Terrible Tie Dye
I thought I’d take a chance on this funky dress but it turned out to be one of the most disappointing rentals for me ever on RTR. I felt like I was wearing old hippie drapes - so much fabric and so unflattering. Didn’t wear.

Flirty Floral
I was nervous about this dress because of the cutout but it was subtle so I didn’t feel self-conscious about exposing too much skin (or fat 🤪). The pattern is pretty and the material is silky. I wore it to my anniversary dinner and loved it.

Cool Pattern, Weird Fit
I had my eye on this dress for a while and was finally able to get it. I love the funky and vibrant print but it wasn’t very flattering. The waist fit right but the top was very loose and didn’t hang right. The arm holes were too big as well.

Tropical Perfection
I wore this during a girl’s weekend in Miami Beach and it was exactly the right vibe. The cut is super flattering though it is low cut, which could be an issue for larger chested ladies. It’s a beautiful linen floral pattern, which called for steaming. Would rent again.

Came up just a bit short
This is a very form fitting dress and flattering as the ruching forgives a lot of sins. It was maybe a bit too short, which made me self-conscious all night (and I’m only 5’2 so tall ladies beware!)

I wore this for my Casino Royale birthday celebration and once again, For Love and Lemons came through. It has a very flattering silhouette that accentuates the waist and the peek-a-boo lace at the hem added a subtle sexy vibe. Would definitely rent again.

For Love and Lemons never disappoints and this was no exception. It is a super flattering fit that cinches the waist and bolsters small-chested gals. Wore it to brunch with cute kitten heels.

Feminine and Flattering
Loved this classic cut, which was very flattering on my pear shape. I wore it for dinner out with girlfriends and it was cute and comfortable. I did wear a cami underneath. I found it a bit long but I just wore wedges to compensate.

I wore this dress to an outdoor party. I loved the retro style, which was very flattering. It ran a bit long for my taste so I wore it with wedges. The top was perfect without a bra but snug with a strapless bra.

HUGE!
The photos do justice to the lovely fabric and stitching around the neckline but this is not a flattering fit for larger-sized gals. it made me look way heavier than I am - my friend at dinner did a double take (and not in a good way!). As others have noted, it inexplicably doesn't come with the fabric tie belt shown on the model. I tried a belt of my own but that created a bunches up look. I would not rent again.

Great cut and color, unfortunately ran small
I had hoped to wear this out to dinner but I couldn't get it zipped past my waist - even though I chose the recommended size. I loved the top and the fit was flattering around the hips. I'll have to try this one again after losing weight!!

I rented this too to change my rotation of Zoom-worthy blouses and it didn't disappoint. I loved the print and the fabric of this classic wrap. It did bunch up a bit around the waist (out of camera view!). I used fashion tape to keep the neckline work appropriate but also used it with a camisole. I would rent this again.

Beautiful beach-worthy burst of color
I loved the unexpected color combination of these pants, brighter than what I might usually wear but so perfect for vacay. The material is light and flowy but as some others have noted, the pants are fairly high waisted. Although they fit nicely around the hips, the waist was very tight so I opted for a loose top. While it made me lol a little boxy the alternate peplum blouse accentuates my tummy. I would rent this again but maybe size up.

I rented this for a beach vacation and chose the largest size available, based on other reviewers. I normally wear a size 12 but this dress was very tight, particularly for this pear-shaped gal. Unfortunately, I was not able to wear it.

Loved the fabric, fit not so much
I wore this for a casual dinner. I loved the summer colors and the faux wrap cut. However, I am normally a size 12 but RTR suggested sizing up to a 14. It hung very loose and plunged pretty low, which is why I wore a camisole. The side zipper bunched up, which was uncomfortable.

Flirty details on a classic cut but runs small
I loved the polka dots, the flirty details and the material, which was more substantial (in a good way) than the photos might suggest. I am a size 12 and ordered a large and I couldn't get it zipped. I would try it again in a bigger size.

Fun and funky
Loved the very different design and the combination of neutral colors. You can wear it over-the-shoulder or as a handbag - and I loved the thick shoulder strap. However, it hangs oddly due to the side clips.

Anything but basic ...
The photos really don't do this dress justice. Perfect for a summer lunch with colleagues, the dress is a classic cut made of lightweight linen. (I wore a slip). But the print makes it edgy. And it has pockets!! As other reviewers noted, it runs big. I am usually a 12 and sized down to a 10, which was a comfortable fit. I would absolutely rent this dress again.

Silky, summery top
I wore this to a girls night out. I loved the asymmetrical hemline and the funky sleeves. I am normally a size 12 and the 10 was small. My work around was to wear a tank underneath so I would t have to worry about the bursting bustling (even though I have an average bustline). Next time, I would size up.

I rented these pants as an alternative to the work from home slip on pants that have become a uniform. They were really well made and flattering - wish I had been able to wear them out. I would definitely rent these again.

Lovely dress, runs very small
I ordered this dress for a beach vacation and ordered the XL, which was the largest size available. As I had feared, it was way too small. I couldn't even zip it up! But I think this would be lovely on someone who is taller and thinner.

Beautiful fabric, unflattering fit
I loved the fabric and color of this dress and thought the draped front would be flattering. Instead, it created a bizarre protrusion in the stomach and hip area. And the top was way too blousy. I knew it was a no-go when my usually politic husband gave it a thumbs down.

I wore this top to a dinner out with friends and I loved it. It is a statement piece that is very flattering: the lovely sleeves camouflage plump arms and the peplum hides the tummy. It was slightly snug around the wait but the fabric is stretchy. I would definitely rent this top again.

I rented this dress for a baby shower and it was the perfect choice for a warm day. It is lovelier in person than in the photos. The material is an eyelet with a floral print. It is fully lined and well constructed. I received many compliments and would definitely recommend this beautiful dress.

Super cute but really does run small
This romper is soo cute, despite not really fitting properly. I usually wear an XS and found this a little small. I'm really small chested (and short) and still found the top extremely small and the bottoms very short. I wore it to the beach for a picnic, which I feel like might be the only place I could've pulled it off. But I do think sizing up would've helped!

Fun and cozy but funky fit
I rented these culottes as an alternative to work pants. I love the pattern, the material was cozy and the fit was on spot, slightly loose. However, the front pleat bunched up in a very unflattering way. I wore it because no one saw it during my work Zoom meetings but I would not have worn it into the office.

I rented this dress to change up my Zoom-appropriate wardrobe. Love the print and the colors and it's unfortunately that the flirty bottom is off-camera. For maximum ease, I wore a white camisole underneath. I would rent this dress again for a low-key outing.
