Birthday dress!
Chose this one for my birthday dress rental. It ran small but was still pretty comfotable. The high-low hem was still flattering and I am only 5'3".

Usually love Shoshanna dresses but this one fit small and was lackluster. Didn't wear it.

One of my favorites!
Bright colors and very comfortable. Perfect for the Vegas wedding I attended. You need a strapless or a stick on bra for this one though.

Disappointed in this one.
Style, material, and color all look so vivid on the website. In real life this one had very rough and thick material. It felt like it had been dry cleaned way too many times. Too stiff and uncomfortable to wear.

Not like the other Trina Turks I have.
Usually love this designer. The dress was odd because it was knitted but very thin and not forgiving at all. The size Medium was still way too small and I can usually fit into a size 2 or 4.

I ended up not going to the event that I rented this for, but it was still a beautiful dress. Would definitely try it again.

Rented for our family portrait. The size 4 fit well although the midriff was a little sheer for my taste. Gorgeous color and very well-made. Photographs great!

Manufacturing defect.
Beautiful dress and well made. Problem was the outside layer was seen inside out and the size that fit had a weird sheen to it. RTR handled it great but it was too late to make an exchange.

Good but bot my favorite from the designer.
Dresses from this designer are always well made and beautiful. This one was very nice and I got a ton of compliments on it, just don't know if I would rent again. Pros: it was brand new, super comfortable, nice quality and thick material. I wore the medium, could have gotten away with the small if needed. Cons: the arm holes were slightly big and gapped around the underarm/bra area. I didn't like the way my arms looked in it (but that is my problem!), and the dress seemed to "twist" to the right, I never felt like the design was centered on my body and was constantly readjusting it.

Very cute but not WOW.
I rented this thinking it was the same as another Shosanna style but I was wrong. It is a beautiful dress, well made, and a bright color. Fit slightly smaller compared to her other styles. Just didn't feel like it was a standout dress however super comfy and a great price point.

Beautiful color and material. Wore to a luncheon and perfect style and quality for the fall. Only downside is that the arm holes felt tight but it was manageable.

Nice just not what I expected.
Rented this for our family portraits and it did not look good with my daughter's dress. It is very comfortable but a little too much for pictures. Would rent again for a date night though.

I want to own this dress.
Beautiful quality, great fit. Could have worn the 4 but went for the 6 for a little more comfort. Nice full skirt and you can dress it up or down. Will rent again!

Theia dresses are amazing!
This is my third Theia rental and once again it did not disappoint. This dress was gorgeous. I could have gone with the size 4 but wore the size 6 just for a little more comfort. The material of the skirt is shiny and has a little bit of tulle underneath to keep it very full.

Great dress just didn't work for the occasion.
The party I rented this for ended up being much more casual than I had expected so ended up not wearing this dress. The material is nice and thick and fits very well. The print is also very beautiful.

Cute but looked like a costume.
Don't know exactly how to describe this dress. It is well-made and fits well the size 4 was just fine. However it almost had a costume like quality to it.

Terrible.
Have rented Erin Fetherston and loved the dresses, this one was a disappointment. Fit tight through the torso and loose everywhere else. Just looked like a bad bridesmaid dress.

Perfect for the occasion!
I rented this dress for my daughter's baptism. It was absolutely gorgeous and comfortable. Trendy without being too trendy. It runs a little big I could've worn the size 2 but it did not smell like it was dry cleaned very well. I went with the size 4 because it was super clean. Would definitely rent it again or another dress from the designer. Loved everything about it from the cut to the material.

My favorite yet!
Loved everything about this dress. The color stood out from everyone else in black. Full skirt is super comfy and you don't have to worry about wearing Spanx. Theia uses beautiful and high quality fabrics. Ended up wearing the 8 because I could wear a bra with it but could have gotten away with the 6 it was just a little tighter in the torso.

Wish I could have worn.
First, just want to say RTR was amazing when they sent me ten backup dresses because this Shoshanna Barbara dress I ordered was damaged. I was able to pick one from the very large selection that worked. They were able to send this dress in a 4 which was too small, but I will most definitely try this one on a 6 when it becomes available. Nice cut, beautiful color and fabric.

Didn't like the color.
Flattering cut, but the metallic blue against the black made it cheap looking.

Sizing was off.
The last Halston Heritage dress I got was a 2 and www very roomy. I thought a 4 would be plenty big but not this one. Extremely short and I couldn't even zip it.

Clover Canyon always gets great reviews so I was curious. This one ran very small and the pattern wasn't near as vibrant as I expected.

RTR to the rescue!
This was one of the backup dresses RTR sent when my original dress was damaged. Absolutely gorgeous. Comfortable with a full skirt. The black and gold is a bit "flashy" but looks great with black accessories. Will definitely other styles from this desIgner. Very nice quality.

Gorgeous, but couldn't wear it.
It's my fault, I put on a few pounds after ordering this dress months in advance. The 6 almost worked. Gorgeous fabric, color, and cut. Will definitely try again once I finish my diet!

Photographs beautifully.
Didn't wear this. It is well made and beautiful, but just too tight. I was very uncomfortable in the 6 and the picture is with Spanx. Afraid I couldn't eat, drink, or sit. Looks better in pictures than in person. RTR was very accommodating and helpful with my return.

Another home run for RTR!
Invited to a party last minute so needed something within 48 hours. Went with this one because of the reviews and because you can't go wrong with black. Loved everything about this dress. Nice thick fabric so was good for a January event that was partially outdoors. I want to buy it!

Nice but not my favorite RTR dress.
Very nice dress, Lace is pretty. 4 fit true to size and was very comfortable although a little short for my taste. It was cold out so black tights worked out great. The middle was a little loose and I usually prefer something more tailored but it didn't look terrible. Overall I was happy but probably would not rent this style again.

Not what I expected.
No picture posted because it was just not flattering. Gorgeous color and nice thick fabric, but it created fat rolls in my torso and I normally don't have fat rolls there! Also it seems like it would be very difficult to find a good bra since the back is cut low. Very pretty dress just not for me.

Love this dress! My first RTR experience and it was great.
Fits true to size for Kate Spade, could have worn the 2 but it was small in the bust so stayed with the 4. The material is gorgeous but lined and thick, so be careful if it's hot out!
