Order your pant size!
Really bummed I couldn't even get this on, as it was too small for me. Because of the way you need to pull it on (and because of the zipper placement in the back), I'd suggest ordering your pants size, rather than the size you might wear in a jumpsuit with more stretch (maybe that's the same size for you, but it's not for me). It's a beautiful, high quality jumpsuit though!

Long straps, easy to get in/out of!
I like this jumpsuit more in pictures (even on myself) than I did in person. The straps were way too long (and are not adjustable), so I had to pin them. The length is great on my 5 foot frame, but I did feel like there was extra fabric around my belly/torso, and it didn't look flattering in person. The fabric is fairly thick (almost like canvas) and wrinkles pretty easily. I did love the colors and the stripes, and the pockets! But probably won't rent again.

Wish I had more reasons to wear this!
I love Tanya Taylor--the fit is always great and the fabric is so airy and high quality. I rented this for an Elton John concert but didn't wear because it didn't arrive on time (my bad, not RTR's). I couldn't resist the bright colors and pattern, but truthfully didn't think this would actually fit or look good on my small, curvy frame. I was pleasantly surprised and wish I had a reason to wear it (will rent again when I have somewhere to wear it to)! My measurements are 33.5, 29, 39.75.

Pear shapes: avoid!
This was the biggest disappointment I've had with RTR. I've rented several items from Louna before, and even bought a couple because they fit so well. I've been a size Small and Medium in dresses, and since other reviewers said to size up, I went with a M in this jumpsuit. I could not get it past my knees (which was demoralizing, to say the least). If you have wider hips/thick thighs, size up (more than you might expect)! My measurements are 33.5, 29, 39.75.

Flattering fit, has pockets!
I rented this for an unexpectedly cold June wedding, and it was perfect! The colors are so beautiful in person. It's a true wrap dress, but it actually stays put, and I didn't feel like I was going to pop out of it. I'm 5 feet, 140 lbs, and pear shaped and the Small worked well for me. The fabric is pretty thick, which makes for a flattering look (probably better for cooler weather). I did use fabric tape on top, but that's to be expected with wrap dresses. AND, there's pockets!

Confusing fit and papery fabric
I had been eyeing this dress for so long and finally rented it...and what a disappointment! The dress definitely runs small: I'm a 4 or a 6 in dresses, but rented this in a 6 (im 5 feet, 140 lbs, pear shaped). I couldn't even get the fabric all the way around my body to tie the dress properly. Plus, the fabric felt papery and stiff (and wrinkled easily). Would not recommend.

Versatile and incredible fit!
This dress fit me better than anything I've ever rented on RTR...so I bought it! For reference, I'm 5 feet and about 140 pounds, slimmer on the top and curvier on the bottom, and the small fit perfectly. Usually dress are either too loose on top or too tight on the bottom, but the proportions on this dress worked so perfectly for me! The dress is also lined, so it's forgiving of any bumps. Plus, I love the colors--perfect for fall AND summer!

SO many compliments!
I got SO many compliments on this dress. I wore it to work and three of my coworkers complimented it. I also wore it to a birthday party and lots of the guests complimented it too. It's so comfortable for a hot day and the sleeves are a dream for someone who is self conscious of their arms. The fabric is also so light and airy! Cons: the bodice is a little long for my short torso, so it got a little bunchy. And honestly I think it doesn't photograph well. I might overlook those and buy it!

Confusing fit and tight shoulders
This dress looked so beautiful on the model in the photos, and looked awful on me. It fits like a potato sack (so shapeless). And like other reviewers said, while this is supposed to be off the shoulders, the elastic is so tight, yet somehow doesn't stay in place. And it doesn't look right with the sleeves on the shoulders. Such a disappointment in person!

Beautiful dress, awkward sizing!
Oh how I wanted to wear this dress! The pattern and silky fabric are so gorgeous. And the ruffles are fun and not over the top. It's a true wrap dress but that unfortunately also meant way too much fabric up top. It was way too big on my chest and shoulders, but fit my waist perfectly (I'm 5 feet and 135 pounds for reference). I had packed this for a wedding and forgot fashion tape, so maybe that could've saved the day?

Fun work outfit!
I loved this dress, and wish I could have worn it more! It's great for work, but given the way it fits my 5 foot frame (a little longer than a midi), it felt a little dressier than an every day outfit. I wore it once to a work luncheon, but didn't find another opportunity to wear it. The waist is a cinched elastic band which I found really flattering. I will definitely rent again!

Great for first time crop top wearers!
I had never worn a crop top before this, because I don't have the confidence to wear them. That said, with high waisted jeans, this was a good first try with crop tops! I loved the wrap of the top, and it really accentuated my boobs. The fabric is a little thin, which made me self conscious, but other than that, I loved this. Would rent again, and almost considered buying this!

Awkward sizing
I wanted to like this dress but there was so much extra fabric up top that it was unwearable. See all of the extra fabric I'm holding in my hand in the photo. I'm 5 feet tall and about 135 pounds, curvier on the bottom, smaller chested.

Awkward sizing!
This was such a disappointment! The fit was confusing, as it was too tight and short on my torso (on my already short torso!), fit perfectly on my arms, and then was way too big on my chest. I couldn't wear this out as it was way too loose and showed my entire bra with any movement. Such a bummer!

Perfect for a summer bridal shower!
Tanya Taylor has quickly become one of my RTR faves! The fabric on this dress is so light and airy, while not feeling like it is too thin and unflattering. While I did need to use fabric tape to tape down the front, overall the fit was great and if it wasn't so expensive, I would have considered buying it!

High quality dress, but confusing fit
I wanted to love this dress as the pattern and fabric are beautiful. But the fit was baffling! The size 8 fit really well around my hips and waist (5 feet, 140 pounds) but it was laughably huge around my 32C chest. I could have been double my breast size and still may have not fit (tried to show that in the picture by holding open the top). No amount of tying this wrap dress and no amount of fabric tape saved this dress for me. Such a bummer!

Beautiful color and fabric!
This is a beautiful midi cocktail/formal dress! The fabric is thick and forgiving, though not restrictive of movements. And the color is gorgeous! Didn't end up wearing this as something else fit better for the occasion. This dress does seem to run large; I've been wearing an 8 recently in other brands, but the 6 fit perfectly.

SO comfy (but sag easily)
Pros: These might be the comfiest jeans I've ever tried! The material is SO soft and the jeans are stretchy, without feeling like I was wearing leggings. Cons: while they fit amazingly well on my waist, they only fit well on my butt for about one wear, before getting too saggy. Plus, they are LONG. Even though they're supposed to be crop length, (which, at 5 feet tall usually fits me like regular length jeans) these went well past my ankle. I still wore them (cuffed) and enjoyed this rental!

Nice fit...for one day!
I loved the light wash on these Madewell jeans. But unfortunately they did not fit well. When I first put them on, they seemed to fit...but by the end of just one day, they were completely saggy everywhere: butt, legs, ankle. The material is also unexpectedly starchy/itchy (unexpected for denim). Overall, wanted to like these so much more than I did!

Great every day staple!
I loved the fit on this cozy sweater that's perfect for day time outings on the weekend! I layered it with t-shirts and other sweaters and it worked well with both. The only reason I didn't end up buying it is because the fabric is a little bit itchy to be wearing with short sleeves (which I'd want to do). Would rent again for cooler weather where I need to layer!

A little more conservative than you'd expect
This dress looked beautiful on the hanger, but didn't have the sexier fit I was looking for, despite the off the shoulder sleeves and slit. I think there may have been too much fabric for my shorter frame. It overall fit well and was true to size, just felt more conservative than what I was going for, so didn't end up wearing it.

Curvy people, size up!
I rented this dress for a black tie wedding but didn't wear it as it was way too small! I rented this alongside 3 other size 8 dresses. All of the others either fit perfectly or were too big. Yet with this dress (also a size 8), so couldn't zip it up around my hips. The neckline and back looked like it'd be really flattering, I just couldn't visualize it since I couldn't zip it all the way up. If renting and you have curves/wide hips, definitely size up by one or two sizes!

Cozy vest for winter!
This is a very warm vest that elevated otherwise boring work outfits (while still being warm)! As other reviewers note, the cowl/turtleneck of the vest is really bulky, but it still worked for me. The fabric is a bit itchy at times, but not too bad. I'd rent again!

Comfortable elegant black dress
The pros: the fabric is thick and heavy, which lays nicely on your body. At 5 ft tall, the cut on the bottom of the dress worked perfectly with 3 in heels. The cons: the dress is tight, and while I didn't mind it in person, I didn't love how it photographed around my stomach. While the bottom half fit me perfectly, I could not fill out the top, so I had to pin the thick straps and wear two bras! Overall this dress was what I needed it to be, I just didn't love it as much as I wanted to.

Elegant statement earrings!
I wanted to buy these to wear to every formal event I ever have! It's hard to find a pair of earrings that look elegant but are not...boring...and these fit the bill. They were lightweight enough to not be painful, but also heavy enough to notice while dancing, which is their only negative. Definitely will rent these again!

Beautiful dress, not for a short person!
I LOVED this dress and felt so beautiful in it. I just wish it fit better! At 5 feet tall, most dresses are too long on me, even with 3-4 inch heels, but this one seemed longer than other dresses. Aside from the length, the dress fit me perfectly on my (wide) hips and waist, but was then too big on my small chest. Had the chest or length fit, this would have been such a showstopper, but unfortunately I didn't end up wearing it.

Warm and cozy yet festive!
I've never worn anything faux fur before, but had a formal winter wedding to attend, so wanted to try this out. It kept me nice and warm (it was about 45 degrees out)! I don't think it photographed well, and looks much bigger in the photo than it actually fit. Other reviewers recommended sizing up for a less snug fit, and I'm glad I did. I'd usually wear a small on top, but the medium was perfect. I'd definitely rent this again!

Size WAY up!
This was overall a disappointment, as the sweater runs SO small. I listened to other reviewers and sized up from a Small to a Large. And yet, the Large fit me more like an XS or XXS would. I think an XL would have been too snug still, so would have needed to size up even more. Lesson learned (but I feel like I wasted a spot on my monthly shipment!)

Warm winter dress great for everyday and work!
This dress was great to layer and wear on a cold winter day to work. The turtleneck isn't overwhelming (not too tight/stiff) and the dress as a whole fits like a comfy sweater dress. The only reason this isn't 5 stars is because I found it really itchy (it's 30% wool, 10% alpaca). I had to wear an undershirt and leggings underneath, which worked since it was such a cold day. But I would not rent this for fall or milder winters, if you're at all sensitive to wool!

Runs very large-want to rent again in the right size!
This dress is beautiful! The style, fabric, and pattern would all be perfect for a summer event outdoors. It even has pockets! Unfortunately, I wasn't able to wear it as I was swimming in the Medium (I'm usually a size 6, sometimes a size 4). The S probably would have fit better, and I may have even fit into the XS. I would love to rent again in the right size for me, because I am low key obsessed with this dress!

Pretty work dress, just not for Pear shapes!
I rented this dress for work, and while the print and fabric are beautiful (and perfect for work), the fit did not work for me at all. I'm usually between a 4 and 6, with a smaller bust and shorter torso, but curvier on the bottom. As recommended, I rented the size 6 and while it seemed to fit on my lower half, the top half was laughably huge. The top was so big that the sleeves didn't even stay on my shoulders (see photo--this dress is not an off the shoulder dress, but that's what kept happening for me). A size 4 might have fit my top, but likely would have been too small on the bottom. This dress is probably better suited for someone more proportionate than I am.

Nice details and fabric, boxy fit for curvy & short people
I should have listened to the reviewers that said this would be a boxy fit! Overall did not work on my 5 feet tall, curvier frame…made me look heavier than I am. It actually photographs better than it looked--it felt more like a potato sack on my body. The nearly full length zipper in the back made me think it’d be easy to get into/out of, but that’s only true if you have someone to zip you up, otherwise you might get stuck like I did. On the hanger it looks like it’d be perfect for a work event, but once on my body, I also couldn’t fill out the top so it was too revealing. I love the fabric and colors so this dress was a great idea in theory, just didn’t work out at all for my body. Big bummer!

Cute dress, not for short & curvy people
As cute as this is on the hanger, it didn’t work for my 5 feet tall, curvier frame, so I never wore it out. I sized up (as is recommended for Reformation) and while it fit across my shoulders and back, it ended up being way too long and awkwardly proportioned on my short torso. There’s a seam that I think is supposed to hit at your waist, but it hit at my hips (again, short torso). Combined with the buttons down the front, this just meant that it bulged in awkward places. The plus side is that there's enough fabric around the buttons that even when it bunched up, it didn't show skin. Just overall wasn't flattering, so I don’t recommend if you are shorter and have curves!

Felt beautiful all night, just be sure to size up!
This dress is so pretty, and overall really flattering! Worn for a rehearsal dinner for my best friend's wedding. The color is beautiful and despite the structured lace, it was lightweight, and perfect for a hot summer day (no sweat showed through, and I sweat easily). I followed others' recommendations and sized up, and the medium fit me really well. The adjustable straps made for a great custom fit, and I didn't have to wear a bra (I'm about a 34C). The overall length was great too, even on my five foot tall frame; didn't feel like I was drowning in it. The ONLY reason this is 4 stars and not 5 is because that inner lining is SO SO short! Barely covered my butt...When I sat down, I had to be very careful to not expose everything (and forget about bending over). Others suggested wearing flesh-colored shorts underneath, but I felt that those were visible through the lace overlay, so I didn't wear them and was just really careful. I don't think this would be as much of an issue for someone less curvy, but with thick thighs, this was definitely an issue to be aware of. I'd definitely rent this again, just not for something like a wedding that would involve lots of moving around and dancing.

Fun and flouncy dress for a summer bridal shower!
I am SO glad that I rented this dress for my friend's bridal shower (honestly sad that I had to return it so soon)! As a bridesmaid, I wanted a dress that felt special and made me happy, and this was perfect for her summer brunch bridal shower. The dress does run large (as other reviewers note); I'm usually between a Small and Medium (size 4-6) in dresses, but wore the XS. It fit perfectly everywhere except the bust, which was still a little large on my small chest. I tried this on with a regular strapless bra and the bra itself wasn't visible, but I ended up wearing a sticky bra and used some fabric tape and the dress mostly stayed in place (I just tried not to bend down too much). At 5 feet tall, I was worried it might be too long, but the length was the exact kind of midi-fit that I wanted. I've gained some weight during the pandemic, so haven't gotten used to dressing my new body, but found this dress so flattering that I didn't need to think about this! Plus, who doesn't love a dress with pockets?! I didn't use them for anything except putting my hands in to exclaim, "it has pockets!" so can't speak to if they actually are good for holding anything. I think this can definitely be worn for a spring/summer wedding, bridal shower, date night...it's really easy to dress up and down. Would love to rent again some day!
