Replacement provided by RTR
It was true to size, just not my style. It's a little long for someone 5'3 and there is some structured padding on the chest. A little matronly.

Falling Petal Embroidered Sheath

Compliments all night! Beautiful embroidery
I am truly between a 4 and a 6, last minute RTR didn't get the 6 in time to ship to me, so thankfully the 4 worked great! This is SO pretty in person. Be careful if you have really long legs, it's sheer up above the knee and when you sit down you may be able to see to your underwear. Would rent again! The neck of it kind of sits weird but nobody will notice but you!

Classy, yet sexy dress for a black tie wedding
I am truly between a 4 and a 6 (130lbs, 5'3) the 4 was a little too tight so I went with the 6. I definitely needed to petite because I'm 5'3, but they didn't have the 6 in P. Got compliments on this all night! I'm renting it again for another event. LOVE

Love this unique dress!
This dress was even prettier in person than the pictures, and very unique! It was also super comfortable! I'm typically a 4 (5'3 and weigh 130) and the Small fit a little loosely. Overall very happy with this rental! Probably will wear spanx next time, not super forgiving in pictures of the pooch under my belly button

Just okay!
Dress runs a little small, I'm 5'3 130 when I rented this and wore a 6. It's cute but not one you'll get compliments on. Better for a work event or a daytime event than a wedding

Blue Night Colorblock Sheath

Pretty color, boning in dress uncomfortable
Rented this for a wedding, the colors are truly beautiful. The boning in the dress to give it structure hurt me all night. I also just wasn't super comfortable in a strapless, which was my mistake! Not my most flattering cut

Wish I could buy this
The dress fit PERFECTLY. I'm a 6 and I wore a Medium. Got compliments all night. Even prettier in person than in the photos, thick material so no need for a bra! Loved the color! Will rent again

Vegas Bachelorette Night Out!
We were required to wear a sequined dress one of the nights for a bachelorette in Vegas and this was a good deal! I'm most likely not going to wear sequins again, so renting this at $30 was perfect - good quality and thickness! Don't need a bra, very forgiving. Only drawback is that the sequins up on my shoulders and around the back were itchy and kind of hurt but nothing unbearable. True to size, if you want form fitting, otherwise size up

Vegas Romper!
Loved this romper for a bachelorette party in Vegas! Super comfortable and flattering, very forgiving in your stomach area! I got a 6 and an 8 and wore the 6, it fits true to size/maybe a little large! Would Love to rent this again, a little more magenta than pictured, very pretty color

Very Comfortable and Classic
I run between a 6 and an 8 and the 6 fit perfectly! I got a ton of compliments, it's a really classic look and it was super comfortable. Would definitely rent again!

The color was a hit!
This dress is extremely form fitting, so if you don't have a smooth stomach, you will need to size up for sure. I wore a 10, I could've worn the 8 and it was comfortable but the fit isn't forgiving and I was self conscious about my stomach. Gorgeous color, I loved the dress! Very comfortable! I wore it to an awards gala in Mexico

Loved the color!
Color was pretty, runs small. Definitely get your spanx out. Will ride up when you walk, I felt like I was pulling it down all night. This size 10 was very worn, a hole in the dress up at the top and hem was coming out. Still got compliments but didn't feel super confident in it.

I'm an 8 and L was too small...
This dress runs SO small. I'm an 8 and the Large was so tight that it couldn't fit on my arms and I could barely zip it. The arm holes are made for toothpicks and it wasn't flattering at all. I gave it a couple stars because he color and threading is beautiful and I wanted it to work, but I couldn't even wear it!

Very ill fitting
The color of this dress is beautiful but it didn't fit right. The straps are waaaaay to long which made the armpit holes too big and my boobs were like hanging out the sides. Not for people that are shorter or have smaller shoulder frame. I actually don't know who this would fit? Very pretty color and love hi-lo, just didn't fit at all

Rehearsal Dinner Dress
This dress is really flattering, but a little tight on the arms! I have thicker arms, so I kept having to pull the sleeves up. Still really liked the dress! Very pretty

High Tea Party
The color is beautiful in person, the dress runs a little small. If you have any flaws in your midsection, this will show EVERYTHING. I had to wear spanx. It also wrinkles a TON so as soon as tou sit down, game over. Still very pretty and got compliments! Im typical a 6-8 and wore a large

The dress is gorgeous, wish I owned it!
Runs true to size, but would wear Spanx if you dont have a 6-pack since its a little tight on your midsection and booty. Go up for your backup size!

Great bridal luncheon dress!
The dress was prettier than I expected! The lavender color is really pretty and its flattering. Definitely get a latger size for your backup, is tight especially if you have any sort of booty. I wore the Large, only reason I didnt give it 5 stars is because it was a little snug and a little long for my height (I'm an 8 and 5'3, needed to wear Spanx with the L)

Very comfortable, tons of compliments!
I wore this to a rehearsal dinner and was surprised at how beautiful the dress is in person. It runs large, inwould get your normal size and size down for the backup. Very comfortable and doesnt show any flaws in your midsection!

Top too large, too tight on rear
This dress was not meant for my body. It runs very small for someone with a booty, and was very large in the chest area. I'm a 36 C and the top was falling down, but was very tight in my stomach and rear. I felt self-conscious all night. If you're busty with a small behind it could work.

Fun, Sophisticated!
The dress ran pretty true to size, I could've gone to my next largest size because it was a little tight at the bottom of my rib cage but the chest area was way too big and would've been loose looking. Large chested girls size up! Color was beautiful in person, looks classy with the high neck, but fun with the back cut out. Length is good for shorter girls, in 5'3 and wore a 6! I wore it to a daytime summer wedding

Mint Giselle Dress

Bright and Fun for Summer!
The dress definitely runs small in the rib cage, so definitely make sure to get the next size up! The colors were beautiful, great for a wedding in spring/summer. If you're short, be careful - it's a pretty long tea-length. I'm 5'3 and would've loved had it been a few inches shorter. Overall great rental!

Great burst of color!
So many people complimented this dress! The colors are so beautiful! Most people had said they saw this on RTR but haven't rented it, but now they want to! It does run small, I had trouble getting it over my rear, but then the 8R fit perfect (I'm a 6R). It is a little long (I'm 5'3) but was fine with 4inch heels. Will rent again!

Got 2 dresses, didn't wear this one
This dress is not very flattering, it runs small and shows every flaw in your stomach or thighs. Im 5'3 and was too long, right below my knee. Not for me

Derby Day dress
I rented this for a Kentucky derby day party, and I almost didn't wear it - went back and forth on it, ended up being cute! It's not as flattering as I was hoping and does run small, so make sure you get your size and one larger. It's a little long, I'm 5'3 and the waist hit me at a weird place. Overall, it was cute and comfortable and could be worn to a shower or something during the day.

Nha Khanh doesn't disappoint
Nha Nhanh is my go-to designer anytime I need to rent a dress, and all of them are always true to size and look great! The dress was comfortable and had the tulle underneath that I like! This one had more tulle than The other ones, and was a little longer than the others, so it wasn't quite as flattering as the other Nha Khanh dresses I've worn. Overall, still a great RTR choice!

Fun night out romper
I wore this to a bachelorette party, it didn't fit as well as I had hoped but still looked cute! The romper has a tank top built in then the lace over it, the straps of the tank were very long, so they fell down all night. The lace arms were pretty tight, so if you have a little larger arms like me it may be snug. I would get your size and one up for the sleeves. Overall, it looked cute and I still got compliments but wasn't my favorite RTR

Runs small, no give in the fabric
I got this dress for a wedding, it looked so cute online. The dress was not as flattering as I had hoped and runs small. The fabric has zero give, so it was very tight on my rib cage. Went with a different dress, didn't end up wearing it. Go with your true size and one up, you'll probably wear the larger size. Has potential to be really cute!

Fun and feminine, very comfortable!
The dress runs true to size, loved the fit and was very comfortable! The tulle underneath is my favorite part, but it does get a little wrinkled (was an easy fix). Got complements on it all night, like all of Nha Khanh dresses I wear! Highly recommend. Size up for your second size just in case, there isn't a lot of give.

So fun and feminine!
I loved this dress and got a ton of complements all night! I went with the larger size because the fabric on the top has zero give and the tulle skirt is a little short. Overall no complaints, I love the dress and wish I owned it!

LOVED this dress!
The fit was perfect and very comfortable! I got compliments all night. The dress has some give, but not much. I would get your true size and one up just in case! Would recommend all Nha Khanh dressed I have ordered!

So small I couldn't wear
This ran so small that I couldn't wear it. It's also extremely short, and I'm a short person (5'3). I recommend getting your size up and then one more larger for the second size. Color was pretty, but I couldn't wear it. I was in a bind for sure, and the app wasn't working so I had to pay for it too :(

Wish I could've kept this!
First of all, this runs very large so I felt great about myself wearing a 2R when I'm typically a 4-6. It fit like a glove and was easy to move around and dance in on NYE. Wish I would find this and buy it, I loved it!

Compliments all night!
This dress was very flattering! The fabric has no stretch and was really tight on my arms, so I had to go with the size 6 rather than 4. Would definitely rent again!
