For those with very small waists
This is very structured on the inside as it has a bra clasp on the inside and is more structured on the inside. I am an apple shape and do not have a smaller waist ratio so this did not work at all. if you have a tiny waist and bust, this will work for you.

Long skirt, but looked great
The skirt was very long and I had to have it up to my bust in order to get the look of it as the model. Still, it looked really good as a set with the top and I wore it for two conferences back to back.

Tons of compliments!
This was a great piece, however the waist was a bit tighter than it looks. It is a fun look and quite structured and a bit heavier than it seems. Wore it for a work function and then another day for a black and white birthday party with friends.

Looked amazing!
It was a wide leg fit with a mid rise waist. Felt a bit tight around the waist but still comfortable. Did. It worry about the jeans falling as I have that trouble sometimes.

Cute skirt
Wore to a concert and loved it. It was a bit shorter than I thought it would be, but I wore dance shorts underneath and it was fine. The pleats give it some swing and lots of movement.

Super fun shirt! It is a bit of a cropped tighter fit, but the thicker material makes it feel sturdy and warm. Wore it to a party and loved moving the fringe all night.

Boxy but good!
I wore this to a concert and got compliments on it! It is more of a boxy oversized fit so wearing it with a skirt was a bit overwhelming, but I liked the look I was going for. Wore it with jeans the next day and a hoodie underneath and it still worked. Felt like I worked at the garage, but still stylish.

Beautiful dress
Loved this dress and color! The material is a bit stretchy and I love that I could shape the strap to be as thick or thin as I wanted to drape over my shoulder. The chest area was a bit big, but I loved the structured shape so it didn’t look too big or crazy. I received many compliments at the opera gala I attended. Nice silhouette and easy to walk in. This dress makes you look like a star.

Too baggy for my frame
I have more of an Apple shape and this was lovely, but was too much fabric and made me look a lot larger. I even had a belt, but it just cut off the proportions.

Great dress!
I ordered the wrong size so it was quite big, but I wore a slip underneath with a black bra and it looked kind of nice with the extra material. It was not very breathable, but was comfortable and I did get compliments all night.

Absolutely beautiful
The dress fit perfectly and I got so many compliments. I opted to wear the shoulders up rather than down, but the shoulders kept wanting to go down. Either way, I felt very comfortable and confident for a night at the museum.

Was swallowed up in it
I got a medium and it was really big and it looked like I was a kid playing dress up in moms clothes. If you are petite in the waist, this will be too much for you unless you like the swallowed up look. Looked better on my sister who is taller and has a longer torso.

Show stopping
Rented this for a fashion show and I got so many compliments. The size I rented was a bit baggy in the chest,and a bit lose, but loved that I had some RT room to move. I wore with high heels and couldn't stop twirling all night.

Didn't end up wearing it as it was too small for the chest
Did not fit well in the bust and this is more for people with a smaller waist. If you do get it, put at least 1 or 2 sizes if you are larger in the chest.

Felt so good
This dress was amazing and it made me feel so good. It was a bit baggy, but loved it as I didn't feel restricted. It also draped beautifully and I got so many compliments on how well it fit my figure. I could have gone down to a medium, but it wasn't available so I tried my luck with the large. I will definitely rent (or purchase) again!

Very pretty, but had to size up 2 sizes
This dress was great but I had to size up two sizes as it is made for people without a chest and a tiny waist. I have a chest and I'm a ruler so my waist is the same as my hips and chest. I still got compliments but I don't think I will rent again as it was also a pain to get the zipper up.

Great for an outdoor fashion show
It was a bit colder when I wore this so I decided to wear leggings underneath which was great as the dress did have some stretch. The sun came out making it warmer in the day, but still got compliments and was able to move around without it riding up. True to size and a bit of give.

Great spacious bag, but the cross-body handle wasn't the greatest
I loved this bag for going to work and work travel. It was the perfect size for everything I needed. The only compliant is the crossbody strap that kept falling off. It was okay when crossed, but when held as a handbag, it just didn't like the angles and kept falling off. The color is true to the color and I absolutely loved it and got so many compliments! I even got a friend to buy one in a bright red color!

Great fit and colors!
This was the dress I wore for opening night for the opera and I got so many compliments on it. It fits true to size and I am a bit more of an apple shape so it was slightly tighter around the waist, but not so much so that it was painful. It moved like a dream and was very comfortable for dancing. Would definitely rent again!

This dress was the replacement choice after both my choices I ordered were returned damaged back to RTR and they couldn't send it out to me. I was a little hesitant that this would look good, but I received tons of comments. I have a short torso, so it looked very flattering and hit in all the right places.

Comfortable and Fun!
I wore this dress for a masquerade party and looked awesome. I recently had to go up a size due to a surgery and the dress fit very well and made me feel very confident. People were not only complementing me on my mask, but they asked where I got the dress and loved the sparkles. Made me feel good to step out after the rough year I had.

I got compliments all night! This dress was the perfect color and the perfect cut.
The dress was a bit snug around the arms, but it fit perfectly everywhere else. The color is true to the pictures. I wore this to a Young Professionals Gala and I received so many compliments on the dress, that I was trying to make sure people weren't making fun of me!! This is definitely a dress to be noticed in and the fabric is still breathable that you are able to dance and move with no worries.

This is not for short-torso women!
It was a good dress, but I had to use fashion tape to keep from my bust falling out. I have very long legs and a short torso, so I don't think this is a dress that I would try again. The style was not like the picture at all and I think I got a severely worn one cause the belt was falling apart.

This was the PERFECT accessory to my dress and it sparkled way more than I thought it would. I wore it with some vintage earrings that I had to complete my "Old Hollywood" look and it was a hit! So many people were asking me where they could get a bracelet that shined and sparkled as much. I told them RTR so I am sure this will be selling soon!
