Great necklace
This necklace was comfortable to wear and not too heavy. I wore it with a plain black dress, so the necklace really popped. I would rent it again.

My husband loved it!
I rented this dress for a wedding - I could have squeezed into the 38 but it was a little tight in the hips, so I wore the 40 instead. The back is really sexy, yet tasteful. I got lots of compliments on the dress and it was just right for an outdoor spring wedding. I took off one star because the lace was a little worn on the size 40 - the lace on the 38 was great, but I'm guessing that's because the 38 isn't worn quite as often as the bigger sizes.

Pockets - 'nough said
The skirt was the perfect complement to the sequin top. When it first arrived I thought it was a bit plain; however, after putting both items on, the skirt is just muted enough to let the top stand on its own. The fabric is a little rough, but the waist is soft enough to not irritate your stomach. Because the skirt sits on your natural waist, you will want to size down as much as possible so the skirt fits properly. You can choose how much midriff you want to show just by pulling the skirt up or down a bit, FYI. I paired the top and skirt with nude heels (which don't show up in the photo). The outfit was a hit and I recommend it to anyone looking for a fun party dress!

Very cute!
I rented the top and skirt for a Christmas party - my outfit was a hit and I got lots of compliments. The top is pretty fitted and is tailored at the bottom so it hugs your mid-section (i.e. if you raise your arms up, the top will only raise up an inch or so). The sequins are a midnight blue, and the top is obviously very nice quality fabric. I recommend this top! And it pairs very nicely with the matching skirt.

Great color and fabric
Overall, this dress was a good rental. It was long enough that I didn't feel like I was showing too much leg at a wedding, but it also wasn't too conservative. I wore the size 0 dress because my bust was drowning in the size 2; however, the waist in the size 0 was still a little too baggy - I ended up wearing a ribbon belt to make it more form-fitting. The fabric felt nice - not too itchy. I would recommend this dress if you're looking for something form-flattering and basic, with just enough of a pattern to be special.

Just So-So
This dress looked beautiful and classic in the photo, but wearing it was a different story. First, the dress arrived very wrinkled and would not iron out so the front of my dress looked rumpled. Second, the dress that I wore showed significant signs of wear and looked like it was close to the end of its life at RTR, even though it's a Kate Spade! Third, part of renting from RTR is wearing a dress that feels special without shelling out the full cost of a dress that I'll only wear once or twice -- this dress felt really average, with thin cotton material. I don't recommend renting this dress.

Very flattering
I really liked this dress and I ordered a S and XS. The S was too big, and the XS had a hole in it! RTR was good about sending another dress to me, but due to inclement weather the dress didn't arrive in time so I wasn't able to wear it to my event. I will say the fit was very flattering and hugged my curves nicely. The lace was kind of scratchy, but the dress was overall a little stretchy. The dress came down to just above my knee and looked great with a pair of heels. Overall, I recommend this dress.

Someone crossed the ballroom during the party to tell me how beautiful my dress was!
This dress was beautiful and I received so many compliments. When I walked, the fabric made it look like I was floating across the floor. What I didn't like was how big the chest area was, even for a size 2. There was a belt, and I used tape, but it still felt like I was swimming in the top. Also, the 2L was a little long but manageable with 3" heels.
