Pretty dress but doesn't breathe
Beautiful color that I felt was very flattering. I didn't necessarily like the feel of the fabric when I first put it on and ended up disliking it the more I wore it. As you can see, I wore this to EPCOT on a HOT Florida day and I could feel the heat. This dress does not breathe so I would not recommend it if you are going to be going somewhere hot and humid. If I would have worn this somewhere else, it would have been fine.

Rough zipper
Rented this for my friend's birthday for her to wear. She was planning on wearing it despite the zipper not being able to go past the seam because the belt would have covered most of the exposed skin. She decided not to wear it because it was too hot that day and she felt that the dress would have been to heavy on her to keep her cool. Beautiful print! Beware, is very low cut.

Loved it so much, I had to buy it!
I love these shorts. I originally rented them for my trip to Disney. They were light, breezy, and a great length. They do wrinkle easily but luckily, FL humidity can take care of that. They're a great, versatile piece to have in your wardrobe.

Too cropped for my long torso.
Colors are beautiful but even with high waisted jeans it was too cropped. I was planning on wearing this to a basketball game and if I would have raised my arms to cheer, my entire belly would have been exposed. So sad this didn't work out!

I got the size ten and I knew when I took them off the hanger that they wouldn't fit. Tried them on and they were more like a 6.

Weirdest cut ever.
I sized up for this dress and it looked like I should have sized up two additional sizes.

Not ideal for tall girls
I'm basically 6' and this barely covered my bottom based on where my hips and waist sit. Wasn't able to wear it.

Different shape, tons of fun!
Such a different shape, especially in the arms. I loved it! Wore it to holiday trivia and got a ton of compliments. I have a long torso so I paired this with high waisted jeans since it is on the shorter side.

Too long even on a giant like me.
Too long, plus it's very see through. You must wear a slip and heels.

Cute but didn't end up wearing.
It was cute but it requires a strapless bra or sticky boobs - the day that I was planning on wearing it was too hot for either of those. The top does run large, very flowly. You will want to steam or iron this because the bottom part gets really wrinkley.

Too short for me, but PERFECT for my friend!
I rented this top for the Indianapolis 500 but basically being 6', this was a little more than a belly shirt. It fit my friend perfectly - she's a good 5 inches shorter. She got so many compliments on race day, she wanted to know if she could buy it!

Best Dressed at Senior Formal
The worst part about RTR? Having to return the dress. I wan't this dress now and forever. It was my senior formal for my sorority and I wanted and unforgettable dress and this did not disappoint. I am 5 11 and had to wear spandex under my dress just so that I didn't flash everyone because of the way I go all out when I dance. Paired with that red lip classic thing that they like, you can't go wrong!!

Didn't have much time to dance because everyone was complimenting me on my dress!
I originally had a different dress picked out for my sorority semi-formal but it was not available for the dates that I needed it so a RTR stylist recommended this one. I am so happy that she did! It might be my favorite rental ever. My problem is that I am really tall and can never find dresses that are long enough that I feel comfortable in. This was perfect. I am 5 11 and the dress hit me about a credit card length above the knee. The fabric is also very soft and a little bit heavier, which was perfect because it was FREEZING the night of the event. It is also very forgiving. I almost always have to go up a size when it comes to dresses but I was able to wear the smaller size and had room to spare. I loved this dress so much! Thanks, RTR!

SMALL SMALL SMALL
I am normally between a size 8 and 10. I ordered the 10 and the 12 after talking with a RTR rep and taking her advice that it was cut small. This dress was so small. I would have to have been two inches smaller around for the 12 to fit. The dress itself is gorgeous. The fabric is great and so is the texture pattern. I am so sad that it did not work out.

I got these for a mystery accessory and I loved them! Unfortunately my dresses did not fit so I did not get to wear them.

Perfect Little Accessory!
I ordered this to go along with the formal dress that I rented. The dress didn't work but the earrings went with a dress that I already had. I got so many compliments on them. AND THEY ARE ONLY $5!! Why wouldn't you rent them??

TWO MAGICAL NIGHTS
I got this as my free birthday dress after buying PRO (if you haven't purchased PRO yet, you should) and I couldn't have been more happy with the result. I first wore this to another sorority's formal philanthropy event and styled it with black tights and black heels. It made my legs look so long and lean! The second night I wore it to my own sorority's semi formal. I styled it with a turquoise statement necklace and nude heels. The necklace really popped against the dress. I cannot count all of the compliments that I received both nights. The fabric has some give to it which is really nice if you are questioning sizes. Since I'm tall it is difficult to find dresses that are long enough. This dress was the absolute perfect length! It was long enough that I didn't have to worry about it flying up but short enough to feel sexy. I only wish I didn't have to return this dress. I cannot wait to order from RTR again!!

BEST DECISION I HAVE EVER MADE
PRO is fantastic! I bought it a couple of weeks before my birthday and I really enjoyed my free 21st Birthday Dress. I can't wait to rent more and save even more money. DO IT! You won't regret it.

Could not have felt more beautiful. This dress helped make my night unforgettable!!
I rented this dress for my sorority formal (I loved it because it was one our our colors!) and I could not believe the amount of compliments I got! It flows perfectly. I am very self conscious about my body and this dress took all of those doubts away. It was stunning. If you are pale, like me, this dress is the absolute perfect color to complement your skin tone! I am normally between an 8 and a 6. I have larger hips and thighs and a small chest. This was the second style I rented in an order so I only got one size. I chose to get the 6 because my chest is small and I didn't want to have to pull it up the entire night. I was worried that it wouldn't fit in the days leading up to the event but it ended up fitting perfectly. I got the long and it was really great and the perfect length until I took off my 3 inch heels, then it just dragged a little bit. BUT DO NOT GET THE LONG UNLESS YOU ARE REALLY TALL. I would recommend this dress to anyone looking to feel like a princess. I cannot wait until our formal next year so I can rent another fabulous dress from Rent The Runway!!
